Say What

Say What? – Gameweek 6

Say What? returns with tasty sound bites to recount the action from Gameweek 6. Diego Costa continued his goal-scoring exploits despite Jose Mourinho’s suggestion that his striker is not even training and we hear from both men on the matter. Alan Irvine pops in to talk of West Brom’s in-form defence, Sam Allardyce and Steve Bruce share concerns over their lack of defensive resolve, while Gus Poyet has problems at the other end of the pitch. Arsene Wenger discusses Calum Chambers’ versatility and Neil Warnock was a happy manager following some remarkably consistent form from a certain Jason Puncheon.

Over 64% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers now own Diego da Silva Costa, so news of his condition makes for ready-made headlines. Thankfully, Jose Mourinho was happy to oblige with the latest on his irrepressible hit-man ahead of a crunch tie against Arsenal:

“I know for a striker scoring goals is always nice for his confidence, especially for a player like him, who is not training as he should because we are protecting him in certain situations. He’s doing almost nothing, just resting and recovering from the tight muscle he has every time he accumulates fatigue. If he doesn’t go to the national team and stays here for 15 days, just in treatment, recovering and making the muscle stronger, he has the perfect chance to be in top condition for Chelsea and the national team.

Mourinho went on to illustrate just how important Costa is to Chelsea’s current set up, but spared a sizeable thought for Loic Remy. The Blues manager going so far as to suggest the Remy was ready and able to deputise for the league’s top scorer, yet stopped short of indicating a start for the France international anytime soon:

“Diego is playing with us every match in the Premier League, the team has worked with him a lot of times. So the team at this moment is more made to play with Diego…Remy’s learning how to play with us. His movement is good, his pace is good, he can get behind defenders. He’s not bad in the air. I think he has some similarities with Diego and if he has to play, no problem.”


Costa, however, is keen to link up with the Spain squad – despite Mourinho’s wishes for a complete rest over the international fortnight. Speaking to the Spanish press after last night’s 1-0 win over Sporting Lisbon, the frontman played down suggestions that a call-up would trigger a “war” between Mourinho and Spain boss Vicente del Bosque:

“I do not believe that could happen. I have already had enough with the issue about Brazil. Now I must stay relaxed to be able to work and do things well, with the national team too. I hope I am okay to go with Spain. During the week I am working in an intensive way with the physios, because I have some issues from a while back. If I played 90 minutes it is clear that I am fine, I am feeling better all the time, and it is the boss’s [Vicente Del Bosque’s] decision.”


Just shy of 14% of the FPL managers have held on to Eden Hazard, despite avalanche sales approaching 200,000 since the Cesc Fábregas show opened in Gameweek 1. The Belgian winger now lies just outside the game’s top ten midfielders with 28 points after being hauled off on 67 minutes during the Blues’ 3-0 win over Aston Villa but while Mourinho admitted his star was off the pace, he remained upbeat about his overall contribution this season.

“I don’t know what he (Hazard) needs… He started the season well. Eden played good matches with us. I think it’s more an isolated not good performance than a period. No dramas and (I am) not too much worried about it, but (Saturday) was not his day, was not his performance.”


After recording a second consecutive clean sheet, West Brom boss Alan Irvine was quick to acknowledge the impact of former Manchester City and Everton star Joleon Lescott on his team’s defensive displays. Lescott made his injury-delayed debut in the Baggies’ 1-0 win at Spurs last week and his side followed up the result with an emphatic 4-0 home win over Burnley on Sunday. The Midlanders’ defence looks a viable place for investment for the bargain hunting FPL manager, with the likes of Andre Wisdom (4.1) and Craig Dawson (4.5) huge beneficiaries of Lescott’s return to action.

“His positional sense is very, very good and, as we know, if centre-backs stand in the right positions, they cut out a lot of the danger before it even comes. He has come in and has been a great influence on people around him. He has been a very, very important player to us, but he has been part of a great team performance in both the Tottenham and Burnley games.”


While Fantasy managers were busy lining up moves for West Ham’s attacking options, manager Sam Allardyce sounded a word of caution following his side’s 2-1 defeat at Old Trafford. Allardyce had made himself quite a reputation among the FPL faithful for producing reliable and affordable defensive options, but with the Hammers yet to record a single clean since initiating this season’s attacking philosophy, a change in emphasis could be on the cards.

“Our team seriously has to start thinking about not conceding too many goals. At the moment we have to score a minimum of two goals a game and I don’t think we’re quite there at the moment where we can score two or more goals every game to get where we want to.”


Callum Chambers is quickly emerging as one of pre-season’s better bargain punts. The former Southampton protégé initially afforded us a cheap, short-term route into one of the league’s most consistent defences but with Mathieu Debuchy sidelined through injury, the young Englishman has been handed an extended run in the side. Arsene Wenger has clearly been impressed with Chambers’ versatility and, given the Gunners’ excellent fixtures from Gameweek 8, the suggestion that Chambers could be groomed for a midfield role later in the season will come as welcome news to Fantasy owners and prospective buyers alike.

“He has been remarkable in every position. He has an unbelievable engine. He goes and goes. It’s not often that you see that quality…I’d consider playing him in midfield but I don’t know about Wednesday [against Galatasaray] because I only have four defenders at the moment.”


Crystal Palace kept up their attacking exploits in a solid 2-0 win at home to Leicester City, with £5.9m (FPL) winger Jason Puncheon picking up his third assist of the season. Much had been made of his relationship with Neil Warnock following the Eagles’ new managerial appointment at the start of the campaign, but with an assist or more in all but one of his appearances this season there is no doubt in Warnock’s mind that Puncheon is producing his best form for the club. With ownership as low as 3.5% after a dismissal in the season opener saw him miss Gameweek 2 (while Gylfi Sigurdsson was busy getting his bandwagon up and running), Puncheon has played a peripheral role on the Fantasy radar, making him an intriguing prospect for managers looking for a differential midfielder at the lower end of the price spectrum.

“We had an evening meal together and talked about it. I think he is enjoying it here, you have bust-ups and say things. He got told the wrong side of the tale at the time but the last couple of years he has been phenomenal and we are very pleased to have him. He probably isn’t getting as much limelight as Yannick (Bolasie), but I have told him he is a marked man this year. When they mark Jason tight they leave Yannick space, so it is six of one and half a dozen of the other at the moment. With his contribution he is a manager’s dream at the moment.”

 

Hull City manager Steve Bruce admits he may need to in his approach, following another valiant display in the 4-2 home defeat to Manchester City. The Tigers are yet to record a clean sheet since the 1-0 season opener at QPR, where Allan McGregor’s penalty save heroics resulted in their only win of the campaign. Alarmingly they’ve now conceded two or more in each of their last four matches but Bruce can take heart from the fact are yet to blank in front of goal, scoring six in their last three, though with trips to Arsenal and Liverpool in Gameweeks 8 and 9 respectively – followed by a return to the KC Stadium to host in-form Southampton – Bruce faces an uphill task in convincing Fantasy managers to invest in his faltering squad.

“You would fear the worst after the first 11 minutes, but they showed what they’re worth and showed a bit of character. We had a mountain to climb and we very nearly did it. We keep playing well and we’re in every game. We caused Manchester City huge problems, but it’s up to me to find the right balance for the side. We can’t keep expecting to score two or three goals every week.”


Gus Poyet was left to bemoan Sunderland’s lack of attacking potency following Fabio Borini’s summer departure. The Black Cats have now blanked in three of their last four Premier League fixtures served up back-to-back goalless draws Burnley and Swansea in the last couple of Gameweeks.

“I think in the last year, that’s why we’ve played with a 4-3-3. One winger and the other two were the strikers, because Fabio was doing a terrific job on the left, but he was playing as a striker. We haven’t found that formula yet. We tried in the beginning (of the season) with Connor (Wickham) and Fletch (Steven Fletcher). Now we’ve got more wingers than before. We’re trying to look for the formula that’s going to work and then you need to get a break.

      Chedjou, but wouldn't be too hopeful of either having a good point score today.

      1. 4vets

        Cheers. What's this about Moreno not starting?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Could be going with JE and Manquillo as fullbacks. Don't really know..don't own him, so not too bothered 🙂

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus

      2. Walsh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    4. Reedy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I have no idea who they are. Both look like they could do with a few extra vowels. I'll go for Chedjou.

  5. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Can't see any way that Mbemba of Anderlecht will score more than 4pts vs Dortmund.

    Not even sure he will start. Anyone any news?

    1. Walsh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He will probably get a two pointer with -1 for goals allowed and 1 point for recovered balls.

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐

        • 12 Years

        I subbed him in for Rakitisky's 0

        Can't get any worse I hope

          Already brought Masuaku in for Rakitisky.

          Bought my defence in Poundland

        • 13 Years

        My thoughts too. Stays on the bench, Gotze and his miserable opts stays in the team.

        Cue a Mbemba goal.

  6. FPLord

    A. Rooney> Costa (bench Ramsey this week)
    B. Ramsey,Rooney>Tadic, Aguero -4 (bench Welbeck)

    Already 70p behind due to not having Costa, but have a feeling that Kun could help me close the gap a bit over the next few GWs before I finally get Costa in...

    1. A.T
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      B

  7. FootballFanatic365

    Falcao drops price and Chambers rises... #Fu#$Logic

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      yeah I can't believe Chambers has gone up before a game with Chelsea

      wasn't expecting that and it's peeved me right off

      1. chrisjdgrady
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Surprised it's the first time he's rose tbh. 4.5 arsenal defender that has started almost every game!

        Showing a bit of flair with some of those long shots too 🙂

      2. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
        • 11 Years

    Lots of Respected posters on here - Do you guys agree with playing Clyne and benching Ramsey this week No FT. and WC next week , Guess the question is -

    A. Play Clyne - bench Ramsey ( can afford another drop )

    B. Bench Clyne and Ramsey to Silva / Haz / Downing / anybody 6 mil in bank

    Hoping its an A , no hits taken yet.

    1. BigManBakar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Get rid imo, Tadic is your man

      1. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Tadic away at Spurs? There's got to be better 1-week options, surely?

        1. Debauchy
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Yeah he's prob in on WC next week.

        Tempting me big time Scratch

    4. chrisjdgrady
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nothing wrong with playing Clyne but you can stop Ramsey for a good midfielder so I say do it

      1. chrisjdgrady
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Swap

        1. Debauchy
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Thanks Guys .
          Normally love a hit . Just don't feel anybody really worth it on a 1 week punt ?

          Will be Haz or Downing - but have already brought in Sakho.

          O well its only a -4 so will think again.

  10. BigManBakar

    A more polished version of the WC team I posted earlier (courtesy Doos!)

    Begovic/Fabianski
    Baines/Ivan/Clyne (Moore/Hutton)
    Tadic/Chadli/Siggy/Sterling (Boyd)
    Kun/Costa/Pelle

    0.3 in the bank

    1. Walsh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No triple soton attack...so I would say it's a worse version 😀

      1. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Gives me Clyne! 😀

    2. JasonG123
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Bego Mannone, Hutton to Naylor/Chambers imo. Regarding what you said on the last page, you don't need good rotating goalkeepers until GW38, you only need good rotating keepers until January.

      1. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        The way I look at it is:

        Fabianski is a better choice than Mannone, which is more important because I'll have to play him in my first 11 every second game week

        Chambers is a better choice than Hutton, which is less important because he'll be on my bench every week

        1. chrisjdgrady
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          But Naylor is a better and cheaper choice than Fab! Then you wouldn't have to have Hutton

          1. BigManBakar
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Cheers, will think about it.

        2. JasonG123
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          That's fair enough I suppose. But I imagine some weeks you'll want to play an Arsenal defender over Clyne.

    3. Reedy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I have to concede the balance looks better. No Mane though 🙁

      1. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Gives me Clyne and a bit more diversity in attack, I guess 🙂

    4. Gunner HitIT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Chadli no!

      1. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        He is a great pick, the best budget pick after Tadic atm

    5. The Finnisher
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Bit of a worry if the likes of ADM/Fab/Haz/Sanchez/Ramsey start firing with that midfield!

      1. The Finnisher
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Can't have them all though, very nice. No Arsenal for GW8 run though.

      2. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Nice point, that's the only worry I have. Maybe one budget option too many.

      3. Reedy
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ah yes...and Walcott of course

    6. Scab
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      ahh Baines and Ivan, i knew you would do it, welcome to the club!

      1. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I've been going crazy over this all week to be honest! 😀

        Amongst all the draft I've created so far, this is the one I like the most. The only problem being of course, as JOA pointed out, 'if the likes of ADM/Fab/Haz/Sanchez/Ramsey start firing with that midfield!'

  11. madness

    CRon to get more than 6 points?

    post fail

    hmm, with no apparent return date for Walker is Naughton worth the risk, or is there a chance Dier re-aappears?

    1. A.T
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I thought Walker was due back soon after the international break! I think it's Naughton's place to lose though. Dier is essentially a centre half so I'd imagine that was very much a stop gap.

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        hmm, was thinking of getting Lloris and Chambers

        want Spurs defence from GW9 and Arsenal from GW10

        am thinking Lloris is Chambers is better

  13. Scratch

    Who to play in UCL... Moreno or Anderlecht's Mbemba

    1. chrisjdgrady
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Moreno if we know he's playing

  14. 420king

    9 years, 8 months ago

    any new news about Moreno or Jedvaj? Both supposedly not starting, have to put one in for Rakitskiy

    1. Holmes

      Jedvaj not starting? 😯

      1. 420king
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Well, nothing confirmed but people are assuming Hilbert will play instead of him. The kid played all games this season and can't be rested in the next bundesliga either because of Spahic suspension

      Jedvaj not starting? Where are you seeing this?

        well started reading german papers after I saw he wasnt in probable lineups on uefa.com

          UEFA.com knows nothing. They are UEFA, and the same people that 'run' the UCL game

            true that

    4. 4vets

      I just put Jedvaj in for Moreno 🙂

      Not starting? Says who?

  15. coldblue
    • 10 Years

    who should i captain tonight? Bale or cr7?

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      CR7 for points, Bale if you're gambling and want a differential.

      I thought about it for 5 secs and then went Ron

  16. FootballFanatic365

    mbemba jedvaj starting???

    1. Jack Frost
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Mbemba yes and Jedvaj doubtful.. not injured, but some chatter about overuse. Most lineups agree.

  17. rozzo

    On a wildcard. Would you rather have Baines or Ivanovic? I have got it into my head that Chelsea are the strongest team defensively and Everton have looked awful at the back so far.

    Can anybody tempt me into Baines rather than Ivan?

    1. chrisjdgrady
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Everton have good fixtures coming up and Chelsea aren't keeping as many clean sheets as I like. Baines looks very attacking and of course has penalties and still lots of set pieces. I'd want baines

    2. Scratch
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      If I was on WC i'd get Baines & Azpi

    3. BigManBakar

      In a similar conundrum here and this is the one dilemma which is driving me crazy at the moment. See what solution I've come up with above! 😀

      1. Think Tank
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I have both, and will keep both for as long as they play and are fit.

        Ivan / Baines and then pick 3 and rotate one of Moore, Hutton, Wisdom and Duff.

        1. BigManBakar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Good idea, I've kept hold of Clyne though as I bought him in at initial value 🙂

          1. Think Tank
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            If on a WC I'd go Forster in goal for SOT cover instead.

            Allows for the uber cheap back-line.

  19. Jack Frost

    Keep Alaba's 14 points or captain CR7? Pretty close to me, since Bale and Benzema share the wealth.

    1. LOCO ABREU
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      would change, 2 goals for Ronaldo to break Raul record

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Ron

  20. Bollemuza

    Its a great Wednesday people, how bout help me with the Aguero case?

    is he really essential with his form and good fixtures? or could dzeko be a smarter buy with his 3.6 mil lower price tag?

  21. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Any news on Chadli's knock? Didn't see him in Spurs training pics but haven't heard pet.

  22. Feanor
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Is there a midfielder worth getting who is 4.7 or less?

    That would allow me to get in Aguero this week, and Pelle next week.

    1. Reedy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Boyd looks your best bet. I'd put Quinn ahead of him if he had the same security of starts, but I'm not sure he has.

    2. GRIMANDI [formerly boring M…

      I plumped for Hammond of Leicester in my WC team to facilitate the same two.

      best team i have seen so far
      but u can't afford it. would personally use forster or fabianski over begovic
      i am not fully sold on ulloa. lets see how he does

  24. coldblue

    i have cahill in my defense, plenty of money in bank from rooney sale, thinking of bringing in baines, replace cahill with him or partner them up?

    DDG owners

    any plans for GW9?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Him out. Courtois in.

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        interesting option but think I'm gonna go Lloris

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I think Chelsea defence has become more CS friendly while Spurs has gone the opposite direction.

          1. JK - Cønt ⭐
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Not sure I'll be able to afford Courtois

            Spurs top the ticker from GW9

            5.8 the most I'll be able to afford for a keeper- with my other transfer plans

    2. BigManBakar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Already sold him on the WC.

      Begovic/Fabianski 😎

      1. LOCO ABREU
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        expensive

        1. BigManBakar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I know but why not if you can afford it!

      2. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        nice if you have the wc or one of them already, but it seems a waste of 2 transfers.

        Might just stick to the plan and get Lloris

      3. GreennRed
        • 12 Years

        Get one of those plus McCarthy? Inevitable that he'll be QPR No. 1.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          Not exactly inevitable, Redknapp said last week Green is #1 for the forseeable future

          • 13 Years

          It's the rotation that makes them good choices, really.

    1. Just A Hat

    I can't get over Southamptons fixtures, it is is more shocking considering the teams they have played so far...surely the easiest set of fixtures a team has faced?

    1. Debauchy

      Yeah , but be prepared to offload in December

      I just did some quick research and couldn't find a single German source that listed him as starting. I put in Caceres in for him and hoping for a prayer that he plays. Looks like I should have kept Danilo's two pointer from yesterday.

  29. Abraham seed

    bandwagons that will fail in the long run:
    sakho,tadic,mane,welbeck and moses
