As we brace ourselves for the second international break of the season, our Sunday members regular delves into the Gameweek 7 data. United’s record signing, City’s in-form frontman and Swansea’s resurgent striker are amongst this evening’s topics, as we also analyse the recent displays of a number of favourably priced midfielders across the last few Gameweeks.
fplstatistics were correct to a maximum error of 2.9% yesterday, for the risers. Fiso is apparently best for droppers.
No way can FISO be best for drops, they have 69 to drop tonight.
Well all the droppers are within that 69, unlike from Totalfpl who are a big mess.
There's probably a limit on the number of droppers per night or something, otherwise there would probably be 30-40 droppers in one go sometimes.
Wonder if there is a limit to the number of droppers per night. FPL Statistics are conservative with the risers (some rise that FISO says should but not FPL Stats) but all sites overstate drops
Any spare cash you have should be able to be leant out for an interest payment and vice versa you could spend more than you have and have to repay it in a future week.
I've thought about that as well. It would get far to complicated for a lot of casual players though, for whom its already enough keeping track of the fact that they only gain half of a players 0.2 rises...
Or, I'd love to loan some of my itb cash to a friend at interest for 1-2gw's. 🙂
Exactly. Of course there are people out there who have multiple teams who would arrange to lend themselves money to give themselves an advantage
A more simple idea would be interest earned on money not spent.
Perhaps for each 0.5 you've not spent, you earn 0.1 each gameweek.
It wouldn't be hard to explain to casuals and would add another layer of strategy.Make that per million. Keep it as nice round numbers and not to easy
Ok, per million. Done.
I've always thought it was an idea that could work. Dunno why FPL have never done anything about it. They have the tax-and-spend mentality in place already.
Thoughts on what I should do with this team?
1FT 0 in the bank
DDG
Chester Moreno Bertrand (Wisdom, Duff)
Sterling Tadic Sigurdsson Di Maria
Pelle Aguero Costa
Thinking of Saving or somehow getting some Arsenal cover.
Cheers 🙂
I would save FT
save
Save.
Cheers all 🙂
Save ... unless injury over international break
I may just save FT with this lot
Forster (4.0)
Clyne Baines PVA (Chester Hutton)
Hazard Siggy ADM Tadic (king)
Falcao Costa Welbz
nice team,pva out soon maybe,bad fixtures
price changes soon?
Now.
cheers adm and clyne up
As expected.
do you have adm pundit?
Nope. 🙁
Starting to get wary of him. Could hurt me like Yaya did last season.don't have him also,have a chance to get him now but think i will ignore and wait for wally
This. thinking the same.
bad fixtures,falcao,rooney and rvp will all share pts with him i hope
Coleman down to 6.9. When is he due back from injury I wonder?
next game,baines only more 0.1
Every 0.1 counts! 🙂
damn that drop just made my GW9 trade very interesting indeed. If Coleman plays well at home to Villa he may just convince me to go for him instead of Leighton!
He's differential too - 5.5% ownership but they must be ghost teams.
Don't underestimate the ghost teams. I just got thrashed in a h2h against a ghost team featuring Kolarov, Kaboul, Henderson, Hazard, Jutkiewicz, and best of all: Rooney(c) and Costa(vc)...
The guy picking at #3 in my draft league hasn't turned up today so his pick is going to be Siggy unless he turns up in the next 22 minutes. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Was hoping he would be my #18 pick.
That must bump someone down to you
Yeah probably, Siggy was one of my favourite picks though. Nailed on and sets up pretty much all of Swansea's attacks. Maybe I'll get Fabregas instead, who knows.
You're in Div 2 I guess.
Same thing has happened in Div 1 where I'm in. Siggy is gonna go. 🙁 And we're only at pick #2.
Team value of 103.6 (inc unused cash) how about everyone else?
103.1
101.8 or something 😐
102.8
104.1
U win
Brilliant
101.9 WC intact
Oh my WC went weeks ago
104 !
103.5
98.2 with 5.4itb (total 103.6). Think I might have earned another 0.1 on Clyne though.
I was up at 103.8 before i traded Ulloa though, as i lost half of his 0.4 rise value.
102.7
102.7 - WC intact.
I'm reasonably happy with that, although the Triggerlips-esque folk on here seem to enjoy regularly putting that to shame.
What would you imagine the FFS average is?Value is pretty useless. Transfer value is a fairer reflection
104.0
103.5 (inc 2.1 cash)
Has anyone ever figured out why we only get half of the gains for bought players, yet every drop is a 100% loss? It's ridiculous that even in the fantasy world we get taxed 50%! If you invest the money, you should reap the rewards in full I say.
It works fine as it is. Stops people building ridiculous team value
I like it actually. If they were to remove the 50% tax, then they'd also have to remove the WC I think.
If there is tax maybe people in low positions should receive some extra cash in benefits?
Kinda like a low income handout? Lol!
Scum! They need to work harder for their points and pounds.
It may help to keep low position players active in the game for longer
Have already made 1 free transfer - Ramsey to Chadli. Not quite sure why I did this though as will probably bench vs City.
Leaves my team like this:
Krul
Terry Bertrand Wilson
Fabregas Di Maria Pelle
Costa Ulloa Pelle
Subs: Mannone Dummett, Chadli, Chambers
Still have 1 free transfer. Ulloa to Welbeck, Dummett to Clyne, something else or save he transfer?Ramsey to chadli is an awful transfer I must admit.
I actually quite like it. Probably not this week, but Chadli's a contender to be this year's Ramsay - four favourable fixtures after this week and with four goals in six games. Looks like a decent differential, still under 11% ownership.
Aguero or ADM more essential going forward?
It would be good to have both. Augers bound to get injured at some point though.
ADM better value
Adm keeper, Kun will get hurt soon
Risers: Clyne, Di Maria
Fallers: Zamora, Coleman, Taylor-Fletcher, Fryers, Pieters, Altidore, Lamela, Arnautovic, Monteropeople were quick selling pieters
Finally vanilla Lamela falls! The guy is terrible!
£0.2m earned on 1st day of International break 😎
Need Sturridge to fall.
Cheers.
Got a 0.1 from Clyne there, nice. Shame that ADM has to be rising so damn much. Hopefully he comes crashing and burning down as fast soon 😛
Interesting that Coleman dropped. He could be a great pickup if he does well against Villa in GW8.
I am afraid he wun.
Fingers crossed he drops another 0.2 before the start of the next gameweek so I can afford him!
Dammit Pieters!
How does this look for the next GW? With Baines coming in after next GW for Moreno
Forster / Myhill
Duff / Clyne / Hutton / Moreno / Wisdom
Sterling / Fab / Siggy / ADM / Cattermole
Costa / Aguero / UlloaGetting rid of Colocinni. Which looks best
1) Colo and PVA to Baines and Ivan
2) Colo and Pelle to Kaboul and Aguero
3)Colo and Fab to Baines and Hazard
Thanks

Anyone got a summary of price changers?
diva post above
See above ^^^
3 above
cheers lads
Looking to change my defence. I have 1 FT and 1.4m in the bank.
GK: Bego, Schmeichel
DEF: Clyne, Bertrand, Baines, Williams, Trippier
Who should I transfer out and for whom? I'm thinking of getting Robertson or Moore for Trippier. Schmeichel does not seem to get any CS.
Best Trio for Defence pls? thnx
1.Aspi - Kaboul - Moore
2.Aspi - Wilson - 4.5 (Robertson/Pva/orHutton)
3.Bertrand - Kaboul - 4.6 (Naylor/Wilson/Robertson/orPva)
rest of Def atm: chambers - wisdomWhat happens to your GW score if you own a player who gets sent off, only for the red card to be rescinded a few days later? Do they add the 3 points back to your score to compensate for the -3?
Shouldn't think so. Think it is final when GW is over
Duff to Bertrand/Tomkins, Tadic to Sterling and Luka to Welbeck for -4pts
Thoughts on this moves guys? Thanks 🙂Don't!
Why? 🙁
Wouldn't do any of these
Luka is invisible, Tadic has been waste of space since 1st GW 😐
Avoid the middle transfer for free?
I can, but Sterling against QPR?
Anyone watched the Burnley game? Why did Boyd only play 66 mins?
He's shit?
I fear he might be close to being dropped.
OVIEDO, everybody???
Is that a greeting where you come from?
OVIEDO, OVIEDO, OVIEDO.
Oviedo to you too my son!
Krul - Hamer
Terry - Clyne - Wilson - Naylor - Moore
Fabregas - Sterling - Mane - Sigurdsson - Marney
Aguero - Costa - Pelle
Got 1 FT and 1.8m in the bank.
Any idea DZ?
Thanks. 🙂
Same front 8 as mine. Tried very hard to fit ADM in, but failed. I still like this team, great fixtures. Maybe get a West Ham defender?
Cheers. West Ham def could be a good option.
Mane and Marney in the same team? How will you shout your instructions?
ADM will be my Yaya this season I can tell. Crazy unsustainable shooting/goal stats and lucky assists. Will probably dominate in the hard fixtures too
Just a world-class player performing consistently, if ostensibly to an unsustainable degree.
World class players make their own luck it seems. It's a hard pill to swallow 🙁
he fixture proof , except for maybe chelsea away
I'm hoping I can hold off till at least after the Chelsea and City games
Yeah i wouldnt buy him now, if i didnt already have him for 9.5 😀
WBA wont be pushovers either
Well done. Should have jumped on early myself. Didn't realize he'd be so lucky though
Presume you're including the assist for Falcao's goal as one of the 'lucky' ones? I don't agree that it was a shot gone wrong, I think it was a superb pass.
No way, please.
So it was a complete flop of a shot from a world class player that he couldn't even get into the air? Please.
He hit it with his laces it's not normal to pass like that
I'm glad he's not a normal player then. 😉
He passes to shoot and shots to pass, sounds about right
I think this just about sums it up.
I have him in my team, and so I'm not even talking with bias here. There is absolutely no way he passed that. World class players can mistime shots. Ever seen Rooney's corner in the world cup.
I believe it was a shot that he shanked. My biggest problem with him is his crazy conversion rate considering the limited opportunities he has had in the box.
Not a chance that was a pass.
We're all screwed when Yaya starts delivering points like Yaya can right?
What if Aguero doesn't get injured this season? I seem to remember way back when that even happened with RVP at one time.
The way Pellegrini is utilising him, doesn't look like getting injured soon
That would be great news. Best striker in the league, fabulous fantasy option.
that would be great,I'm getting him for next GW to form Costa-Kun-Welb combo,time to start the green arrow now 😉
That is my front 11 ready to go. Guess all 3 will be injured on international duty then.
RMT
Mannone
Gibbs Taylor Alderwield
Silva ADM Sterling Siggy Downing
Costa Aguero
Foster, PVA, Wisdom, Ulloa
Thoughts fellas?Good to go 🙂
What transfer/s would you do?
2FT, 2.8 in bank.
Forster (McCarthy)
Moreno Bertrand PVA Naylor Hutton
ADM Fab Sterling Siggy Boyd
Costa Pelle Ade
Moreno -> Baines and Ade -> Welbeck looks very tempting.You must love Roald Dahl
Who doesn't?
BFG was my favourite book as a boy, followed by Matilda
Oh think those transfers would improve the team btw
I like those two transfers. Go with that
Yeah I feel Baines might explode in the next couple of gameweeks with those opponents.
Wilson/chambers to Baines. Would you?
Not really a comparison is it? You must be downgrading someone else or have cash lying around
If you buy Baines, it's for life.
RMT
A - Save FT
B - Ulloa -> Welbeck
C - Another Option
1FT 4.3 In Bank

Williams/Trippier to Robertson or Moore? Good move?
It doesn't excite me
If you buy Moore, don't play him.
Is Williams worth keeping?
Hull fixtures are bad. Get a West Ham defender imo.
Morning DZ.
Thoughts on this team?
Krul McCarthy
Baines Chambers Moore Hutton Clyne
Fabregas Sterling Mane Sigurdsson Boyd
Costa Aguero Pelle
Bank: 1.1m, 0FT.
Worth taking a hit to do Fab>ADM now that he's 10.1m? Personally feel it's best to wait for Walcott or to get Sanchez. Thoughts?
Would you take a hit to bring in a Hammers defender or Krul>Adrian?
Thanks.
9 years, 8 months agoADM and Clyne may rise. Costa Siggy Sterling getting close.
No site is perfect yet, however ... always seem to be a couple surprises.
Lots could fall, but mostly those that don't play regularly
