This evening’s Members article takes a look over the action in Sunday’s Community Shield showdown between Arsenal and City. Having assessed Alexis Sanchez’ display our lunchtime Technical Area post, we delve into the data to discover for any hints of form ahead of the weekend Gameweek 1 deadline.
Whatd he do tonight? did qpr play?
Open Controls
Seriously considering young or hernandez.. Talk me out of it
Open Controls
Keep calm and be like zlatan.
Open Controls
thanks for the analysis.
CR7 hat-trick tonight btwOpen Controls
More proof if it were needed City are starting slowly ...
Open Controls
What is the best option for 4.5 from either CPL, SOT or STOke?
Open Controls
Yoshida
Open Controls
Probably wrong time for this but:
If United's attacking forays come from the wing backs, does it mean that Mata in the hole becomes less effective?
Thinking it might favour the 2 strikers, lots of crossesOpen ControlsWe all know at some point we will have to put in at least one of Aguero, Sturridge or Toure could really mess up teams that dont have one
Open Controls
Will be Aguero for me when he's back. Sturridge slightly too pricey to justify at this stage. Think I'll go with Coutinho instead.
Open Controls
Evening all. What would you do differently with this?
De Gea | Myhil
Kos | Debuchy | Duff | Vlaar | Wisdom
Sanchez | Siggy | Hazard | Mata | El Ahmadi
Roony | Costa | Bojan
I don't like having a keeper who won't play and I'm not sure if Duff and Wisdom will be in the first XI.
Don't mind wildcarding in GW3. £0 in bank. Defence and cheapie mids/attacker rotate quite well.Open Controls
Don't like the double arsenal defence
Open Controls
Please post on the RMT threat,

From previous thread...
Is going Ramseyless a bad idea? Rationale, Crystal Palace at home will be tricky given the way Pulis sets his sides up. They will sit, they will frustrate and restrict Arsenal to few chances. I can see only a 1-0 win in this game for Arsenal.
After that they have Everton away, a fixture they lost 3-0 in last season and an incredibly tough place to go.
Watch and wait?Open ControlsI agree to some extent but he just played man city and got a goal/assist
Open ControlsNot the same. That was essentially a friendly against a make shift back line. I'm not denying the fact that he's a quality player but I can see Crystal Palace making things difficult but ultimately losing by the odd goal. Everton will be the same.
Sometimes the fixtures aren't quite as they seem. I'm persuading myself to look elsewhere for now.Open Controls
This really is a classic player/form over fixtures.
Open Controls
Ars 1 - 0 Cry.
Ramsey goal. 10 points.Open Controls
You just know he'll do well though. Fixtures are irrelevant for attackers in the top teams. After Hazard, he's the best midfielder to own imo.
Open ControlsHe will do well and is one of the best to own. But during the first two games I think he'll struggle to have an impact given the style of the teams they are up against.
Hazard and Mata for me.Open Controls
Wouldn't be that certain of a tight game, Pulis or not... No reason Arsenal couldn't put 3+ past them at all.
Open ControlsIf they get an early goal they could. It's a possibility of course. I just know from experience of watching Pulis sides for years that he sets up his players to sit and defend in these games. They restrict the space and reaply do make things difficult. I think we lost 3-1 at the Emirates once, the rest of the time it was by the odd goal.
What was the score last season?Open Controls
I'm going without him. Would be tough vs palace and Everton.
Hoping for a price drop so that I can pick him up before Leicester.Open ControlsGlad I'm not the only one.
Open Controls
Was going at the same ppg as Suarez last season just about:/
Open Controls
Would you rather..
A) Eriksen + 2x 4.5m defenders
B) Ramsey + 2x 4m defenders
Thanks!Open Controls
B
Open Controls
Jovetic numbers are quite enticing, he might be worth a punt... does anyone know how long it will take Aguero to be match fit?
Open Controlsi'd take a guess and say he will be back gw2 v liverpool
Open Controls
Possibility of getting trolled by LvG is worth having young at 5.5
Open Controlswhen do the games today kick off then ?
Open Controls
Sterling ownership is 27.7%
To me he is overpricedOpen Controls
I thought so too, originally. But you have to price him on a par with Oscar and Nasri, really.
Open Controls
As a Liverpool fan, I think he will be our most important player this season and that he will step up in the absence of Suarez. Sturridge will be top scorer for Liverpool, but I think Sterling will be the one to really make a name for himself.
As for FPL, he's currently in my team, but I don't like Liverpool's opening fixtures, so I may have him from GW3.Open Controls
"Aleksandar Kolarov (11) pushed far up the pitch from left-back and was as advanced as Edin Dzeko (10) when on the ball."
As their average position was equidistant down the pitch, then this sentence suggests that Dzeko and Kolarov were equal in position when off the ball as well. Seems somewhat unlikely.Open Controls
Oh gawd I'm getting tempted to put Kolarov in my team. HELP ME
Open Controls
Who do you think will score the most points
A)Dzeko
B)GiroudOpen ControlsFabregas to start with.
Open Controls
Only four days to go and I'm as uncertain about my team as ever.
Open Controls
I think my team is a little better, I got rid of siggurdson so that I could upgrade costa
Open Controls
Evening all.
Who is your 3rd striker and what formation are you playing each week?Open Controls
Help desperately needed!
Which 3 do i pick.
Debuchy, Eriksen and Sterling
or
Chambers, Fabregas and Sterling?
really find it hard not to pick fabs 🙁Open ControlsWas getting inclined towards a United defender but the lineup tonight is a great reinder that United CBs are too injury prone and always in need of a rest.
DDG firmly nailed on in my team now. Can't afford to see my United defender getting a breather vs QPR at home.Open Controls
waiting for news
Going for an 8.5 spend on keepers to a 9.5 is a big stepOpen ControlsA step that'll reap you rewards. 😉
Open Controls
His ownership is too high, though. With a United CB right one you'd have a differential.
Open ControlsWhat makes people think that MUFC defence has improved ?
Open ControlsI agree, they look worse and im staying away
Open ControlsTottenham looked poor at the start of last season with Dawson starting but they went on a nice run of CS towards the start. Fixtures do help.
Open Controls
Fletcher back fully fit should help. And they'll buy someone good enough. The fixtures are ripe as well. Got to play the fixtures at the start of the season.
Open Controls
I wouldn't with his injury record
Open Controls
Arsenal are better on the right wing. Debuchy and Sanchez 🙂
Open ControlsToo injury prone for my liking and doesn't have the best of fixtures. Moreover there're early European commitments.
Open ControlsIf he was 5m then yeah he'd be straight in my team. But the fact he's the same as Debuchy whilst also being a sick note means I'm not interested
Open Controls
Was just thinking reading this article as he is the one getting forward not Debuchy
Open Controls
Bojan.
4-4-2, 3-4-3, 3-5-2 rotationOpen Controls
