Versus – Baines and Coleman

After scaling the heights of fifth place in their first season under Roberto Martinez, Everton have so far failed to find their form. The Toffees sit in seventeenth spot – just two points off the basement – but are poised for an excellent upcoming schedule which many expect will enable them to quickly climb back up the table.

Understandably, Fantasy managers are eyeing up Leighton Baines ahead of a run which pits the Merseysiders against just three of last season’s top eight in the forthcoming 13 Gameweeks. Given that the Toffees have managed just a single clean sheet so far, though, defensive returns may be hard to come by unless they can tighten up considerably.

With team-mate Seamus Coleman looking poised for an imminent return to action, we analyse the pair’s displays so far and compare them to the performances which harvested 169 and 180 points respectively in the 2013/14 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game.

        The substitution was reported as tactical following the red...I've not seen any reports of a problem for Pelle and the player himself has tweeted post match...

        If you've seen otherwise can you "pass the source"?

    Dzeko ---> Pelle
    PVA ---> Tomkins

  3. Mavric Marco

    9 years, 8 months ago

    I need a keeper to play every week for 4.9 or under until the Jan wildcard..

    A) Guzan
    B) Schmeichel
    C) Mannone

    1. Touré De Force
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A, C, B in that order.

      1. Mavric Marco
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers, I was leaning towards Guzan.

    2. Goodnight Kiwi
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Bego to Guzan for me too next week Silver

      1. Mavric Marco
        • 11 Years

        yea, looks like the best shout. ta

    3. Jarvis
      • 10 Years

      What about Foster?

      1. Mavric Marco
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        wba fixtures are bad

      2. sully29
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Foster is a better option than Mannone (who has some awful games between now and Jan) but Guzan is comfortably better than both.

    Wats the opinion on naismith?..i know he's scoring a fair share but is a guaranteed starter??

    1. DickieRay the Dullard
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No, not guaranteed. Maybe be competing with Barkley for minutes. I still own him, though. Great fixtures.

      1. chuckles26
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ya Barkley will be eased back in...was thinking of getting rid of jelavic for naismith..think he should get close to 90 in the next 3 games and great fixtures too..mirallas being injured only helps the situation too

    2. Touré De Force
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      His place to lose imo. Can see both he and Barkley starting as well, don"t accept the general consensus on here that they are in direct competition with one another.

    Is there any truth in Pelle being withdrawn with a thigh strain?
    I can find nothing online to suggest it

    1. rickardinho

      oh great, another one.... now i have lovren, krul, chambers, welbeck, and pelle all out or doubtful. meh

          Del Monte reported as having a thigh strain too? Good Jesus, dropping like flies.

      What about Chadli's injury?

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

    Still undecided about letting Ramsey go in my draft league. I have Walcott and need a decent 3rd striker which is currently Austin. My other two are RvP and Adebayor. My options are to try and trade from either Dat Guy, Dzeko or Lukaku. Would you stick or twist?

  7. Twelve years a slave

    Just seen Begovics disaster lol

    Hes lucky he didnt do that in the league, to ruin clean sheet

    1. Mavric Marco
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He's ruined a few cs for me 🙁
      Out this week, prob for Guzan

    24 hrs on from my son's team getting a bit of a hammering and I have a conclusion...Some blokes really need to find another hobby other than being a "football coach"...No wonder English footy is falling behind.

      Hamer possibly

      1. Mavric Marco
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        could do possibly. shame nobody can come up with a sound algorithm to predict it.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years

          1. Mavric Marco
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Total FPL got it down last season, and FISO the year before that. It is possible.

    2. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Krul is about the only notable injury. Seems suspiciously quiet on the injury front considering it's an international week.

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Who is your main GK?

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

        Guzan or Foster

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

          Then either Foster + Myhill or Guzan + Given would make sense.

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

        Most likely to get a start/rise..

    2. Mavric Marco
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      QPR no.2

      McNuggets or something

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

        What about Hamer or Elliot?

        1. Mavric Marco
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I think McNuggets has more chance of ousting Green long term IMO. I wouldn't touch Elliot and Hamer was only brought in for cover.

      A small point gap like that can be a big difference in places at the moment but its so early it really is nothing in the long run

      I know you, and maybe one other, flagged his post and you were right to do so, imo. The sad thing is.. as a father of 3 young kids (2 of whom are sick atm) I am up late.... I'm sure Mark, as a new Dad, has better things to do at this time of night than to respond to this sort of crap that was posted by DelMonte.

      Life was so much easier in the good old days when you could have TFPL and FISO tabs open at the top of your screen.
      These days, FPL have decided to troll all the FFSers and actually threw a curve ball into the equation. Fair play to them, I say!
      It's like a Gargantuan battle between FPL and FFS posters.. only the FPL tower remains ominously quite on the whole situation... as is their want.
      It's like Triggerlips looked too deeply into Galadriel's mirror and the all seeing Sauronesque eye of the FPL tower pierced his soul 😀 😉

      Well just to note.

      FPL Stats:
      Risers : None
      Fallers: Zarate, Skrtel, O'Shea

      FISO:
      Risers : Sterling, Duff. [Downing close]
      Fallers: too many

      FFF:
      Risers : Sterling, [Downing close]
      Fallers: Reid, Chambers (WHU), Potts, Sidwell

      Any other 'reliable' sources?

      FFF and FISO both predicted Sterling to rise. Interesting.

        They both had Sterling rising yesterday. Only 144 transfers in today.

        Yup. FFF had the last few right for me (apart from Costa but they were at 95% on that).

        They were the only ones that predicted Sturridge falling though.

        Asked a Q to the crowd earlier Trig, interested in how many weeks ahead you are planning transfers... Been doing 3 GWs ahead myself

          No idea, not even sure what im doing this week tbh

            You're not alone.

    Has fplstatistics quit updating or have prices slowed to a crawl?

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

      The latter, I think.

  27. bdwhite91

    2 FTs, 2.1

    Fab Siggy ADM Downing Sterling
    Pelle Ulloa Costa

    Fab -> Diame

    Ulloa -> Agüero

    Madness?

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

      Not mad, IMO. Not sure about Aguero this week due to his travelling time.

      1. bdwhite91

        cheers!

  28. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Would you do ADM + Ivanovic + Ulloa to Chambers + Walcott + Aguero for a -4 hit next week?

    Hoping no price rises though, I have exact money for this atm.

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

      Id keep ADM. Cant you fund the move with another mid.

      1. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Nope. I could do Sturridge instead of Aguero - would be easier to fund.

        ADM's been amazing but I feel like he may not be able to deliver at anywhere near this rate consistently. Especially once their fixtures take a turn for the worse (which they do in a week).

  29. Del Monte

    Risers: Berahino

    Fallers: Sidwell Reid Jones Powell Zarate

    1. Del Monte
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Not one site had Berahino close to a rise.

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

      Got freaked that it was my Burnley Jones. Thought nah it must be Phil Jones but it's actually Brad Jones.

      1. Del Monte
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Steven Reid not Winston Reid

        1. Damo.
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Liar! Ban him!!

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

        And anyone who had Brad Jones needs to be brought out the back and pit down.

    3. Not Irish
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No one has a bead on prices. Slow risers still impossible to track.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        are these correct?

        1. Not Irish
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Yup

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

          According to TFPL, yes.

          1. Twelve years a slave

            • 13 Years

            Shame, was hoping to report him again

              Stop being so reactive. 😉

      around 63% is riser on totalfpl.com

  30. Venom Snake
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Im stumped. Just do not know which defender to bring in

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

      Want to give us the options MR?

      1. Venom Snake
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I don't even know the options. Fixtures have thrown me..

        Can spend all my money and get Azpi or Mangala, which doesn't leave me enough cash to get Kaboul. Or get someone like Naylor, Jagielka, Tomkins etc..

    2. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I think it is about time for Everton to go on a romp ... 6 points in 7 games won't continue. Think Baines, but pretty expensive relative to your current defenders. Azpi might be a good alternative for you at 6.0 for CS's

      1. Venom Snake
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        If I could afford Baines he'd be straight in

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

          Can you make a move to get Baines next week? Cheap Mid like Downing perhaps?
