With West Brom and Man United set to seeĀ out the Gameweek tomorrow, we delve into the data from the nine matches played so far. Unsurprisingly, Man City, Southampton and West Ham’s in-form front men are on this evening’s agenda, whilst we also cast an eye over a couple of improving north London-based midfielders.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

  1. SC not pearls before swine
    12 years, 10 days ago

    I don't really have any right to complain with Tadic/Pelle and Aguero(c) doing the business for me, but I'm really annoyed that the one penalty Aguero missed was the one David Silva drew...

    1. Barry Woj
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Try owning Silva and not Aguero or Tadic!

      1. SC not pearls before swine
        12 years, 10 days ago

        So rough.

        1. Barry Woj
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Checked your team to check for sarcasm... nicely done! 140k - 10k in one GW!

          1. SC not pearls before swine
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Thanks! Tadic in for Hazard last week paying dividends even though I was kicking myself after the Arsenal game...

    PvA > Chambers the smartest move I could make with this team?

    Foster Gilks
    Clyne, Taylor, Moore, Duff, PvA
    Eriksen, Cesc, Siggy, ADM, Jedniak
    Costa, Aguero, Pelle

    1m itb.

    1. mastertokalosh

      wait to see on costa

        Thnx šŸ™‚

  3. Zasa
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Alright DZ,
    Would you guys rate this an ignorant punt? Considering I have other priorities.
    Just know this man will be dat guy in these coming weeks & have the exact funds.
    I might even stick it out w/ Caulker as he has villa at home next week.

    Bego/Gilks
    Baines | Clyne | Caulker (Duff, PvA)
    Sterling | Hazard | AdM | Siggy (Marney)
    Costa | Pelle | Welbz

    Sterling --> Dat man Alexis
    or if I chicken ish this, Siggy ---> Eriksen

    Thoughts?

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Siggy to Eriksen

      1. TeamSteam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Dont ship Siggy before they host Leicester, he`s earned that much.

        1. Zasa
          12 years, 10 days ago

          I have taken that into account.
          Will hold my FT for next week, Caulker will do & we'll see how AdM plays.
          Cheers, gent. Much obliged.

  4. Moeda
    12 years, 10 days ago

    What should I do to the below team with 1FT and 0.3 in the bank?

    Begovic (Krul)
    Chambers, Baines, Clyne (Wisdom, Coloccini)
    Sig, ADM, Fab, Sterling (Wanyama)
    Pelle, Costa, Welb

    A) Hold
    B) upgrade Krul
    C) something else to look for Man City cover

    1. Moosie the Staggie
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A

  5. istanbul05
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Howard or Lloris if I am on my WC? Thanks

    1. Deep Sea Amphipod
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Lloris for me - I'm assuming you have Baines also?

      1. istanbul05
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Yep just got Baines in too. Surprised so many saying Lloris, I had it on Howard before posting that...

    2. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Lloris

    3. CunkOnFPL
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Hugo

  6. Deep Sea Amphipod
    12 years, 10 days ago

    A quick WC related question.

    a) Guzan + Eriksen
    b) Lloris + Chadli/Siggy

    Thanks guys. šŸ™‚

    1. Salah’s Sonnet

      B

    3. Deep Sea Amphipod
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Hmm... food for thought. Cheers

    4. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      B with Chadli

  7. Salah’s Sonnet
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Hiya lads, is Chambers expected to come straight back into the line up next gameweek?

    Cheers.

    1. Deep Sea Amphipod
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Yup.

    2. Zasa

      Yessir

    3. Salah’s Sonnet

      Cools thanks guys

    4. Moosie the Staggie
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Another 1 point incoming

  8. Lallana_
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Assuming Costa is "doubtful" for this week's clash I may do:

    Costa>Aguero this week

    then...

    Welbeck or Pelle>Costa the week after for Palace (H)

    1. Deep Sea Amphipod
      12 years, 10 days ago

      How much do you have in the bank?!

    2. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Thinking the exact same thing! Could live without Costa for Utd game

  9. YeahtheMooys!
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Jumping on the aguero bandwagon, does sterling + ulloa for jedinak + aguero sound good?
    Got to take a 4 point hit

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      12 years, 10 days ago

      get boyd instead of jedinak

      1. YeahtheMooys!
        12 years, 10 days ago

        I like that Idea, cheers

  10. Michael Jordan - call me MJ
    12 years, 10 days ago

    On another note, getting rid of Costa is madness. If he's out this week which most of us guess he'll be back for, the following week he has QPR

    1. Zasa
      12 years, 10 days ago

      All just white noise on a Saturday night

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Even if tv is different this year due to high ownership you will lose .3 min

      1. OShaughnessy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Net or gross?

        If you owned him from the start the first .1mil is *free*... it's only after that you actually lose on TV that you earned.

    3. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Doing the hokey cokey between the biggest hitting strikers will end in tears eventually.

      The ones that are happy to do it I imagine missed Aguero's haul but this was negated by Baines Pelle and Tadic this week.

      Both are major armband options every week the first haul Costa has the ditchers will be punished.

      1. Zasa
        12 years, 10 days ago

        This.

    4. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Kun has said QPR the following week. City look more deadly than CHE ATM. Chelsea more workman like, MCI just attack, attack, attack...

    5. Not Irish
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Meh.

    6. TeamSteam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Its not madness selling a £12m man when hes not playing 2-3 games. Its common sense.

  11. Cal1umz
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Azpi and Chadli for Boyd and Baines. Is that a good swap?

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      12 years, 10 days ago

      yeah

    2. enrico.palazzo
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Chadli is great value... 1 blank against City means nothing, Tottenham have a kind run of fixtures. I'm looking to drop siggy soon tbh

    3. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      100% yes

      1. Cal1umz
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Okay thanks guys šŸ™‚ it's either drop Chadli, Siggy, Serling, Fab or ADM. Thought Chadli would be the weakest..

        1. JoeJitzu +42
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Has to be one of Chadli or Siggy?!

  12. Sting
    12 years, 10 days ago

    A) Hazard, Pelle

    OR

    B) Tadic, Costa

    ?

    1. Deep Sea Amphipod
      12 years, 10 days ago

      B I reckon

    2. enrico.palazzo
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Tf in Costa? Because ideally id like both Costa and pelle

      1. Sting
        12 years, 10 days ago

        I have Costa, Welbeck, Ulloa currently.

        Aguero is a must surely?

        1. enrico.palazzo
          12 years, 10 days ago

          I think so. If you can afford to wait on Costa news then tf later in the week with a back up option to fund Aguero. Otherwise Costa to Aguero with either of those tf looks good. I don't see Costa as that essential (Chelsea supporter)

    3. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A for me

  13. enrico.palazzo
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Any chance for wisdom not to play this week, I'm greedy and want cork to come off the bench! Also advice for this team please. I have 2 FT and .2 inB although my team looks great for this GW

    Foster (krul)

    Baines - caulker - Clyne
    Fab - chadli - sterling - siggy
    Costa - Aguero (c) - pelle

    Cork, wisdom, Hutton

    Thanks guys

    1. mastertokalosh
      12 years, 10 days ago

      yes decent chance

  14. JoeJitzu +42
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Would you go with this free two transfers?

    Ivanovic & Costa

    To

    Aguero & Jagielka

    (Could get Costa back week after!)

    1. enrico.palazzo
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Jags won't keep up the goals. Wait and see on Costa tbh. He'll be fit for Saturday imo

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Cheers, could get defender up to 5.9 but not too sure who?
        Have Clyne Hutton Wilson & Duff

    2. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Sure, go,for it! Cap Kun also...

    3. Deep Sea Amphipod
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Not sure about Jags but I would want Aguero in...

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Who would you suggest for up yo 5.9 (can't get Southampton)

        1. Rafabio
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Rose, WHU defender...

          1. Deep Sea Amphipod
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Yep, or Chambers if you don't have him

            1. JoeJitzu +42
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              12 years, 10 days ago

              Yes, certainly a possibility; will Arsenal sort out their defending? Will Sunderland put in a do or die performance.... Me thinks I thinks too much šŸ™‚

              Cheers for comments

              1. TeamSteam
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                12 years, 10 days ago

                They wont until Kosc is back, hes the glue that holds that tarsh together.

          2. JoeJitzu +42
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Hmm, Spurs fixtures are kind alright but they are erratic and just don't fancy West Ham keeping cleanies hence my Everton dilemma!

            Thanks for your response!

  15. RSe
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Fab and Moreno > Erikson and Baines is oh so tempting. I just love cesc so much but can't afford with the dropping of Sterling.

  16. Deep Sea Amphipod
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Does anyone believe Hazard will outscore Fabregas over the course of the season?

    1. Sting
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I did. Losing hope now

    2. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Yup, for all the hopla Hazard is only seven behind the so called consistent Cesc. Penalties will nick it for Hazard and when he explodes, boy does he explode.

      1. Deep Sea Amphipod
        12 years, 10 days ago

        It's something I'm toying with on my WC, but in fairness you can't deny Fabregas's consistency. I definitely would have thought Hazard would come out on top at the start of the season but I'm not sure now.

        1. Rafabio
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Cesc is consistent but for all the hype, he's only 7 ahead of Eden ATM. Hazard will come out on top. No doubt about that mate.

          1. Deep Sea Amphipod
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Cheers, thanks for sharing your opinion! šŸ™‚

    3. Royal5
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Fabs set piece duties favours him imo

      1. Walsh
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Madness. Hazard is on pens, that far outweighs any indirect / direct set piece goals / assists Fab will get over the course of the season for me.

      2. TeamSteam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Fabs takes corners. Very few freekicks. Hazard takes all pens and is largely more attacking than Fabs. Its hard to predict these things, but i think Hazard will outscore from now on and in. Certainly now that their prices are so close, id get Hazard every time.

  17. Oliver Tockman
    12 years, 10 days ago

    no

    1. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      yes

  18. OShaughnessy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Let this week serve as a lesson to those who kneejerk & WC early, because they fall 30 or 40 points behind in their mini-league.

    Seen rises & falls to player's Overall Rank in excess of 90k this week.

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Ummm but my WC is what facilitated my huge jump mate.

      1. OShaughnessy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Haha, OK.
        Don't know if the GW3 WC players who got Jovetic & Ramsey feel the same way as you though.
        Glad it worked out for yeah but, my point remains...
        30 or 40pts early on, ain't nothing.

        1. Rafabio
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Point taken.

          100 plus at this stage is nothing mate, heck chased down a century tail opened of last season.

    2. enrico.palazzo
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I was 40 behind my ML rival. 98 points so far with cork still on the bench to most likely come on, he scored 30, huge swing...

    3. Not Irish
      12 years, 10 days ago

      My WC was a huge win. Silly sausage.

      1. OShaughnessy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Didn't say it can't work out but, feeling pressured into it because you're 30 or 40 behind is silly too... as we can see it's not as much as it seems.

        1. Not Irish
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Fair enough. WC should only be used early if there are fires that need putting out and/or you feel you can improve your team significantly both short and long term.

    4. BuK II
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I agree. Was tempted to last week but decided I wouldn't make enough changes. Aguero (c) and Tadic have lauched me from 600000+ to 70k, although I'll be watching Di Maria from behind the sofa!

      1. OShaughnessy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        ML rival has him as his (c) so I'm right there with you.

        1. Crystal Pulis
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Wildcard is overrated. Nothing a minus 12 can't fix

  19. Wave of Mutilation
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Any doubts whatsoever regarding Chambers' starting position upon return?

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Nah

    2. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Can't imagine Arsenal are in a position not to play him especially with Kos a doubt.

    3. Zasa
      12 years, 10 days ago

      He'll be back in his old position, donworrybouitmayne

    4. Walsh
      12 years, 10 days ago

      No doubts.

    5. WorldCupDanB
      12 years, 10 days ago

      He'll be in for the next five games, but then could be out after that.

    6. Wave of Mutilation
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Thx all. Seems a good replacement for Moreno (with some cash as a bonus).

  20. Oliver Tockman
    12 years, 10 days ago

    did anyone captain tadic

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Yeah, not me though.

    2. theoldgit
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Don't know about captain but I was pleased that my opponent in our top of the table H2H left him on the bench. 5555

  21. Captain Shirokov
    12 years, 10 days ago

    http://youtu.be/cNfKjYb6Y5M

    Bossaaaaaaa NOVAAAAAA

  22. Reed_Rothchild
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Rumor Sterling to Real Madrid next summer

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I think that's inevitable

    2. Captain Shirokov
      12 years, 10 days ago

      He'd barely make the bench

      1. TeamSteam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Nah they`d ship CR for a billion to make way, its the RM way

    3. Snikii
      12 years, 10 days ago

      doubt it, too english to leave

  23. pedrofroes79
    12 years, 10 days ago

    62 with Wisdom and ADM still to play... Not that bad!

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Wisdom brace incoming and a cleanie!

  24. theoldgit
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Who would you x'fer out to make room for Aguero?

    A. Pelle
    B. Welbeck.

    1. Sting
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Welbeck if I had to

    2. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Pelle, fixtures turn for the worse soon and Danny's fixtures are peach for a while longer.

      1. theoldgit
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Thanks for the replies.

        I think I'll wait for Pelle to go up later? Then do

        Silva-Albrighton. Pelle-Aguero for -4.

        I'm 0.2 short to do Welbeck-Aguero.

  25. Bic Boi
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Think jagielka is bargain if you can't afford baines or Coleman considering evertons run of fixtures now

    1. Walsh
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I don't agree. I think he is appropriately priced.

  26. Manu5
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Costa, aguero, welbeck,
    So does welbeck go for pelle?

    1. Walsh
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Seems a bit sideways to me, but could pay off over the next 4 certainly.

      1. Manu5
        12 years, 10 days ago

        It seems sideways, but the next 4 for Hampton seem to good to pass up. Even though arsenals next 4 aren't too bad either

        1. Walsh
          12 years, 10 days ago

          I would prefer Pelle over Welbeck but just not too sure it's worth using a transfer on, basically. Tough call šŸ˜€

        2. Rafiki
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Get a saints mid? I'd want welbeck in my team, can't fit him though.

          1. Manu5
            12 years, 10 days ago

            The middies seem to spread it out too much, it would have to be pelle if anyone. Alsonhave clyne and bertrand

  27. Sadio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 10 days ago

    If Costa is confirmed out this weekend, are you keeping or selling?

    1. Rafabio
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Most will keep as they won't see past QPR

        Not true. Most on here will keep, casuals will sell by the bucket load as they don't look at fixtures.

      If he's out until after the QPR game - sell.

      If he's back before it - keep.

      I'm seriously thinking of off-loading for Kun with a view to getting him back week after!
      Waiting until after champions league games though!

    Any chance Kaboul might lose his place guys? Thinking the best sub I can make this week is getting a spurs defender...

      No but I would prefer Rose for attacking threat and less likely to get sent off or get an own goal.

        This. 1000%

        Cheers. Ye he has looked dodgy this season but seems pretty nailed on. I guess Rose is nailed on as well and same price.

    Just ran the comparison tool of Welbeck vs Sakho.....interesting reading that. Interesting indeed.

    1. Journeyguy

      Worth bringing Sakho in for next week? Would be a great swap for Ulloa for my FT but I'm not sure about doing it as he will play City...

        Sakho is a little unlucky to have been firing like this recently at the same time as everyone has reshuffled their front lines to get Welbeck and Pelle in but not enough talk is occurring about what type of value and quality Sakho has been so far in my opinion.

          2.9% ownership and in the top 5 strikers. Looks to be great value. I know nothing of his stats tho...

            Yea your right he has flown under the radar massively

    Considering some options before next week

    A) Krul > forster
    B) Terry > Baines/Ivan
    C) Get rid of welbeck and take some hits to get Kun alongside pellet and costa
