With the weekend deadline edging ever-nearer, we turn to the members section once again and delve into the data in order to investigate the attacking form on offer from the 10 double Gameweek teams.
Hey guys - 4m burning a hole in my pocket this week - what should I do? Thanks!

I hardly dare ask if I should still keep Aguero. Have Sturridge and Suarez .
Anyone?Open Controls
I would. He will see action this gw and has 2 other dgws
Open Controlscrazy, get Dzeko and keep the cash for when Aguero returns if you are set on wanting him. if not use it to strengthen elsewhere
Open Controls
wait as long as possible to decide, right until the deadline if necessary ust to get as much info as possible. that's all i have
Open ControlsThanks
This is my team
Mannone
Chambers Evra Coleman (Martin Ward)
Yaya Colback Nolan hazard ( noone)
Sturridge Suarez Aguero
Worth ditching chambers for now with FT? Or Colback ?Open Controls
mata or silva decision probably has to be made tonight then with a 0.2mil swing imminent.
keeping players slightly too long has often been good to me this season, e.g lukaku v liverpool, benteke v norwich, koscielny last gw. tempted to give mata a make or break gw, with him having the superior gw32Open Controls
What did you folks think about United's defending tonight...A CS but tbh at times I thought they looked very medium at best...I'd certainly be fancying City's chances.
Open Controlsyeah, they still seem very lightweight in midfield
Open ControlsEvra suddenly looks slow and the chopping and changing every week also shows..a better team than Olympiacos could have punished them tonight (again)..or at least notched a couple.
Open Controlshe is getting older and probably doesn't have the legs to get up and down the wing for 90 mins as much as he used to, the midfield is also leaving the defence exposed too much. if you look at Chelsea and how much more solidity Matic seems to give the team, the same can be said for City when De Jong was there, its all a bit too much flowery atm imo, no real bite. Rooney having to drop too deep too often.
Open Controls
Mid under 6.7 i am considering a punt on the OX , any other suggestions?
Open Controls
Kagawa was "definitely going to be involved" tonight....
Open ControlsHe was 'definitely going to be a better signing than Hazard'
Open Controls
lol
Open Controls
Pretty sure he could have been as effective a signing for 20m less, but too different in styles really to compare
Open Controls
Apparently he handed out the oranges at HT.
Open ControlsHe was, but then we had a result to hang onto so we can't be bringing on any liabilities.
Come on Parm, it ain't as if Young dropped 4 clangers in his first 5 mins on the pitchOpen Controls
Didn't watch the game. What happened to DDG? What is the story?
Open Controls
Wasnt ever truly tested, but made good decisions throughout, decent performance.
Lucky once or twice.Open ControlsLol
Open Controls
I only caught the second half but it looked as though he had a pretty decent game to be fair.
Open Controls1 decent save, rest was simply doing his job
Open Controls
Does anyone think RVP will be fine for Saturday? Would you sell or wait if you had him?
Open ControlsWait for sure,looked like he just took a heavy knock to the knee,i reckon he will be fine
Open Controls
This Silva vs. Gerrard decision feels like the most difficult one I have had throughout my seasons of FPL. Have to make it now and still have no clue what to go for. Does anyone - anyone - have anything good to go on here other than "Gerrard is obviously the best" or "Silva is gonna rip it up"?
Open Controls
Gerrard has the better fixtures for the DGW - and is a safer bet because he regularly seems to get attacking points. Silva has the multiple DGWs, though. I think that burning a transfer from Gerrard to Silva pre-GW34 might be the way to go.
Open ControlsAll depends on whether Liverpool get any pens or not,Silva will outscore Gerrard in most games with assists etc,Gerrards only saving grace is the amount of pens liverpool are currently getting..
Silva all day long for meOpen Controls
Gerrard regularly does something, Silva doesn't.
Open Controls
Gerrard. Can't understand why people are getting Saliva... Terrible player in FPL and irl
Open ControlsAgree to disagree.
Regardless of FPL prospects (which are debatable) Silva is a sublime player.Open Controls
Gerrard has scored 8 of his 10 goals from the spot this year. Will it continue? Odds say no, but he's got all those pens because of the movement of the 3 forwards and they'll continue. Silva is hit or miss IMO, but with more 2 more dgw's to come ,he has more chances to score...
Open Controls
I went silva, two more games than Gerrard . I'd only use a transfer to swap Gerrard out for him in a few weeks anyway.
Open ControlsHow much should it affect my decision that both my minileague rivals have tripled up on Liverpool (but actually don't have Gerrard)?
Open ControlsI assume they have Sterling then?
Ultimately best to go with who will get you most points- doesn't make this decision any easier, just back to the beginning. At the moment I'm entirely on the fence with this one too. In theory Silva should get more by gw 38...but..Open Controls
This won't help, but:
Gerrard 5.8 points per game
Silva 5.8 points per game
(tied for 4th most PPG of all midfielders)Open Controls
After Barca United are only the 2nd team to lose 2-0 in the 1st leg of CL n go through to the next round. Another record broken my moyes #MoyesOut
Open Controls
so barca broke the record
Open Controls
If we get Bayern Munich, can we just give the ball to Fellaini in the corner for 90 minutes 🙂
Open Controlsno
Open Controls
Mannone
Chester, Kolarov, Coleman
Silva, gerrard, nolan, rosicky
Suarez, stur, dzeko
Or
Mannone
Chester, kolarov, coleman
Silva, johnson, nolan, sterling
Suarez, stur, lukaku
Or
Like B but coleman for 4.3m def and sterling for gerrardOpen ControlsB. Not convinced by Tomas enough. Can see why you are tempted though.
Open Controls
Play Bardsley (have mannone) or hazard?
Go.Open Controls
serious man crush on David De Gea, might have to re-instate him as my grav
Thinking about taking a punt on the Ox over Nolan this week, that run from GW34. Thoughts?Open Controls
I've only just got used to the new grav!
Open Controlsand on the Ox?
Open ControlsI've thought about it, but Wenger is gonna keep playing him CM and he just wont shine fantasy wise there unless we use the Bayern tactics again.
Open ControlsRosicky?
Open Controls
What about the Palace tactics where he scored a brace from there?
Open Controlswould you take either of Ox or Rosicky over Nolan?
Open ControlsNot for me. Nolan more nailed to start both i think, and let's face it, nobody would be talking about Rosicky if it wasn't for last week.
Open Controlstrue. It's that run of blue for Arsenal from GW34, but maybe better to focus transfers on guys with doubles, so Nolan could become, say, Ince?
Open ControlsOh if you're asking Nolan > Rosicky after the double then fair enough. Wouldn't do it for the double though. Yeah Ince, or even Puncheon if he gets back in the side.
Open Controlscheers. I'll take Nolan and re-asses in GW33. Puncheon is doing my head in, would you keep him in the hope he gets back in, or just sell and buy back, keeping Noone as cheap 5th?
Open Controls
Mega yes to both
Open Controlsalso possible
Open Controls
Just a reminder of how potent Arsenal's attacking threat is right now...Last weekends threat by team..http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/3846/
Open ControlsDat Guy
Open Controls
RVP look badly injured? Shall I do Agureo to Rooney?
Open ControlsNope,he has a knock,wait until tomorrow,he will probably be fine.
Open Controls
Hmm, Giggsy(6) won the ball back more than anyone bar Rafael(8), and noone beat his number of key passes (2).
The answer to all of our problems 🙂Open Controls
WC dilemma:
Option 1: The shaky behind
Silva, Distin, 4.x defender
Option 2: The heavy behind
Sissoko/Ox, Coleman, Cahill
Planning to also get Yaya and Zabs, and probably stick with Lukaku. Cahill was got in cheap in Jan WC, so this makes me loathe to sell him (despite CL and no DGW).
TLDR version: Is it worth gutting your defence for Silva as 2rd City player.Open ControlsWhat do you currently have in midfield?
I wouldn't make big changes like that in defence just to bring in Silva. I would prefer option 2 with the ox. Look at Chelsea's fixtures just over the horizon, you'll regret selling Cahill if you cant get him back. Especially if they keep a clean sheet this week.Open Controls
Will we know if RVP is ok for the weekend or not tomorrow? Could have done without him going off at the end 🙁 will he be ok do we think?
Open Controlsif rvp is injured does this enhance rooney's fpl prospects? thinking nasri and sterling over gerrard and silva to afford him
Open Controlsyes,
Open Controls
Think I am gonna stick with this team. Took a -4 to get it. How does it look? Anything you would change?
Boruc
Coleman Koscielny Demel
Hazard Yaya Silva Sterling
Lukaku Sturridge Suarez
Davis; Puncheon, Dann, CahillOpen ControlsFor the DGW and the foreseeable future, first to three wins:
A) Sterling
B) Nasri
C) OxOpen Controls
