With West Brom and Man United set to see 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

    I have 2FT with 0ITB and plan on bringing Baines in tomorrow. Thinking of either:

    A) Siggy & Williams to Albrighton & Baines
    B) Sterling & Duff to Downing & Baines
    C) Ivan to Baines

    Current Team is

    Mannone McCarthy
    Ivan Clyne Williams Duff Moore
    Sterling ADM Tadic Siggy Boyd
    Aguero Costa Pelle

    I am leaning towards A, however any thoughts are appreciated

    1. Jay_
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Just do C if anything, do not do A, absolutely crazy, you will be playing either Boyd or Albighton every week

    2. Jay_
      12 years, 10 days ago

      If it it was me i would do Ivan>Baines, or Mannone Williams> Guzan Chambers

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

        Thanks, going to do Ivan Mannone to Baines Guzan and likely to do Williams to Chambers next week.

    3. leesjs
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A for sure

    What's the deal with Alcaraz then? Above Distin in the pecking order or was the big man just given a rest?

    1. rickardinho
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Have you seen how shyte Distin has been this season? A bedpost would be better than him at CB right now!

  3. Flying Dutchman

    Posted it in last page. 0 replies 🙁

    DDG
    Ivanovic-Caulker-Wisdom-Bertand-Moore
    Sterling-ADM-Fabs-Siggy-Albrighton
    Costa-Pelle-Welbz

    No FTs. I want to take Kun & Baines, ML leader has them.-4 isn't enough to take them.
    I am very tempted to play wildcard now. Should i go for it? or take one at a time?
    Suggestion please

    1. rickardinho
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Do it if you're abit mental

      It'll be fun 😀

      1. Flying Dutchman
        12 years, 10 days ago

        lol So Kun & Baines not that important atm?

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Not worth wild carding for.

      1. Flying Dutchman
        12 years, 10 days ago

        I see so Should i take Baines or Kun this week? or someone else? like Eriksen, Chadli?

        1. Stupendous
          12 years, 10 days ago

          One of Eriksen/Chadli will blow up this week...

          Maybe both.

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

      How much money do you have in the bank? I assume you can't afford a straight Costa to Kun swap?

  4. rickardinho
    12 years, 10 days ago

    0.1 short of doing Siggy>ADM 🙁

    If only I had done Lovren>Baines on Saturday evening instead :/

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Have you already got Baines, otherwise you can choose Coleman. He's equally good imo.

    2. 1314
      12 years, 10 days ago

      thought u got Baines before ?

  5. sully29
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Have about 1.5m to play with and no idea what to do with it over the next few weeks.

    Not quite enough to upgrade PvA to a heavy hitter or bring in someone I really rate in place of Siggy next week. Rose, Kaboul, Jagielka, Barkley and Downing are all fairly meh options.

  6. EmreCan Hustle
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Morning DZ.

    Sorry for the repost. Bottom of previous page.

    Really want Eriksen in the team from next week. Great fixtures, playing in the hole, found some form and a BAP magnet.

    Current team.
    Krul McCarthy
    Baines Clyne Chambers Hutton Moore
    Fabregas Sterling Mane Sigurdsson Boyd
    Aguero Costa Pelle

    1FT. No hits required.
    A. Mane>Eriksen. Mane has decent fixtures, but have Pelle and Clyne.
    B. Sigurdsson>Eriksen. Fixtures turn slightly sour, Swansea looked poor yesterday, easy to bring back(gw13).

    Thanks.

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      12 years, 10 days ago

      B. next week.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Cheers.

      2. Crystal Pulis
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Agree with innsie. Mané has great potential. He'll burst soon.

        1. EmreCan Hustle
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Agreed. Eriksen or Chadli if you had to choose? Cheers.

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 10 days ago

      B after next week I guess.

      Worth remembering that Southampton's good fixtures only last for four more weeks though, then they go through a pretty awful nine week spell. Given that you have three of their player you're probably gonna want to get rid of Mane in the next few weeks anyway.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Cheers. Will bring Siggy back in gw 13.

  7. banskt
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Silva + Moses > Chadli + Tadic with 2FT? Seems sideways? Please suggest other 6.4m or below mids.

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Good transfers.

      1. banskt
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Thanks.

    2. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      If I had Silva I'd want to hold. He will terrorise United for a start.

  8. Stupendous
    12 years, 10 days ago

    7,511 rank tonight!! Sterling beauty.

    Shame things might change once people have their Vc capt go to Pelle or Kun.

    Need 9 from Adm for 100!!!

    3-2 Wba win please

    1. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Then again since I have both surely it can't change too much as I have Baines.

      Only Tadic and potentially Falcao owners leap?

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

      Well done mate...
      Although, everyone needs to temper their excitement though, because, we've got *no clue* how much the Costa captainers & auto-subs will have come the end of the week.

      1. Stupendous
        12 years, 10 days ago

        That's what I meant though...

        I have Costa Aguero Pelle so already enough ahead to stick around where I'm at?

        Adm big money today/tomorrow!!

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

          It'll be the Aguero VC's & the guys who get someone like Eriksen off their bench that'll make it interesting.

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

          30% of people in the top 10k have ADM as their VC. Can't remember how many captained Costa, or captained ADM.

          So you could be in the strange position where ADM scores well, but you go down in rank 🙁

          1. Stupendous
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Best hope for a blank then?!!

    3. Crystal Pulis
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Doing great this year Stupendous. Keep up the great work

      1. Stupendous
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Cheers pal

        104.8 rising too...

  9. Koflok
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 10 days ago

    a) Chadli + Clyne
    b) Tadic + Hutton

    Both will be out to Walcott in 3 weeks time or so

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A

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

      Tadic & Hutton then.

      Cheers guys

  10. banskt
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Which is better long term:

    a) Chadli + Baines
    b) Eriksen + Jagielka

          12 years, 10 days ago

          You're running into us at the wrong time... It's gonna be a good match next week 🙂

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            12 years, 10 days ago

            we're moving into top gear as well 😉 MOTD surely 😀

  12. The Finnisher
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Di Maria with CHE mci compared to Sanchez sun BUR...wish I had enough to swap.

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I wish I did Hazard -> Sanchez last week..

    2. Goodnight Kiwi
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Have HAZ and not letting go. Was looking at Sanchez v ADM this morn too. Think I am planning Sterling to ADM GW 11, simply more consistent.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Haz to stay until QPR for me.

  13. Stupendous

        United 0 Chelsea 2

        1. Stupendous
          12 years, 10 days ago

          I would do Bego to Forster but will have Clyne Tadic Pelle

          12 years, 10 days ago

          Swansea 2 Leicester 0

          1. Stupendous
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Agreed but siggy will get 3 baps and Dyer/Bony 2

            Nice team mate

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              12 years, 10 days ago

              You too, good climb this week.

              1. Stupendous
                12 years, 10 days ago

                Cheers Innsie just hoping Adm can see me through the VC changes this week and still end up around 10k

    2. Les Bleus
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Good to go!

  14. dmcqt
    12 years, 10 days ago

    I'm on a wildcard and am considering three different options. Which seems best?
    a) Baines - Chadli - Obertan
    b) Moore - Chadli - Ramsey
    c) Moore - Obertan - Alexis Sanchez

    I already have Ivanovic and Clyne in defence. It's a tough one!

    1. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A

      1. Stupendous
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Not sure Obertan would be a part of my WC however

        1. dmcqt
          12 years, 10 days ago

          Thanks! The combo of Ivanovic and Baines looks pretty awesome. I watched Newcastle's last game and liked Obertan's threat. He looks like scoring more goals, I think. Other midfield options at that price range include Boyd, Albrighton (limited playing time), Wanyama ((limited playing time and mostly defensive), Cork (limited playing time), and Cattermole (red-card nightmare).

          1. Debauchy
            12 years, 10 days ago

            Go with Obertan - Agree with you , he has looked good last 2 games .
            I got him in last week on Wc and instant payback.

            Wont play him again though , bar GW 12 home to Qpr .

            Go with it imo.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A but not obertan. Too kneejerky.

  15. Mojo Rojo
    12 years, 10 days ago

    PvA & Sterling > Baines & Tadic for free? Gives me:

    Krul
    Baines // Clyne // Wisdom
    AdM // Fab // Sig // Tad
    Costa // Kun // Pelle

    Elliot // Boyd // Hutton // Moore

    Bank = 0

    Yay or nay?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Do it

    2. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Sterling out ahead of home v Hull???

      After a 12 nil tonking by Madrid the Anfield faithful will have them see off Hull 4-5 nil

      1. Mojo Rojo
        12 years, 10 days ago

        It's a worry, I know... But Baines keeps on ticking along

        1. Stupendous
          12 years, 10 days ago

          I'm expecting 2 pts from him next week as an owner

  16. BIG TONES
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Get in Barkley this week. Thank me later.

    1. Saniul
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Sigurdsson ➡ Barkley is my planned transfer after GW9.

  17. theoldgit
    12 years, 10 days ago

    With Aguero's history of injuries, I hope all the new Aguero owners will not regret their early purchase after tomorrow night.

    1. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Looks like Man Of Steel a.t.m

  18. Goodnight Kiwi
    12 years, 10 days ago

    While it is quiet, this is my FOX side. Appreciate any thoughts as I have 3 free trades, 70k itb.
    Courtois,
    Baines, Clyne, Hutton
    Sterling, Chadli, Siggy, Tadic
    Aguero(c), Costa, Welbz

    Wisdom, Reid, Downing

  19. Saniul
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Begovic, Hamer,
    Moreno, Clyne, Coloccini, van Aanholt, Hutton,
    Sterling, Sigurdsson, ADM, Tadic, Davis,
    Aguero, Costa, Welbeck.

    Nobody can convince me to keep Moreno anymore, after that -2 debacle, so that leaves me with options like.

    A. Moreno/Sterling ➡ Baines/Chadli (-4)
    B. Moreno ➡ Jagielka
    C. Moreno ➡ Alcaraz
    D. Moreno/Costa ➡ Baines/Pelle (-4)
    E. Save FT and do Moreno/Sigurddson ➡ Baines/Boyd next week.
    F. Wildcard to get Baines, Pelle, Downing, Boyd and Taylor and Foster in.

    A little assistance will be appreciated. 😉

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

      If Costa is actually going to miss a couple games I'd say D easily. If not, B or C.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I like A. E next.

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

      A if I have to

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

        E next as well

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

    So watching the highlights John Terry looked a little more frisky attacking wise. Header cleared off the line, headed pass for a Matic chance. The fixtures also look pretty good long term and even @ United @ Liverpool hold no fear for a Mourinho team. Worth keeping or just not worth the price tag this year?

    1. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Ivano or nowt for Chelsea def for me

      1. Stupendous
        12 years, 10 days ago

        If I was so inclined I would already have double Chelsea def

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

        Cheers. Ivanovic too pricey for me.

        1. Stupendous
          12 years, 10 days ago

          You get what you pay for...

          Top scoring def and 8th in entire game.

          Season keeper. 8m by January.

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

            Maybe but he's started hot the last two years before tapering off. I feel like if Chelsea aren't keeping clean sheets he's not worth it and if they are I'm happy enough with terry.

            1. Stupendous
              12 years, 10 days ago

              IMO Ivano is the HEAVIEST of heavy hitting defenders regardless of Baines.

              He will outscore Terry by a country mile.

              Terry will be hurt soon enough too

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Owner here. 50/50 on him. QPR soon. If drop, only for Baines

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

        Yeah, I'm mad I didn't ship him for Baines this week. I considered it but decided to save the transfer, now I'm thinking I'm going to sell him for Kaboul/Jags/Gibbs to fund Alexis.

  21. NABIL - FPL otai
    12 years, 10 days ago

    Krul Elliot
    Terry Clyne Chester Hutton Wisdom
    Hazard Sterling Tadic Siggy Marney
    Costa Kun Pelle

    2 FTs, 0.4 itb

    Lots of option for me this week

    A. Terry & Haz -> Baines & Fab

    B. Terry & Chester -> Baines & Duff (keep Haz)

    C. Chester & Sterling -> Baines & Chadli (keep Haz & Terry)

    D. Haz -> ADM/Sanchez

    E. Chester -> Chambers

    F. Anything else?

    Thoughts appreciated

    1. Trading Bear
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A or B

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Thanks man

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

      Lots options indeed.

      A) Okay
      B) I like it
      C) Sterling's a keeper for now
      D) Kinda sideways
      E. Arsenal's horrid defending

      I like B. Or A.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Yeah it's between the two actually. Cheers man

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

      The Hazard to Sanchez option looks good to me. He's looking like the rich man's Walcott we all wet dreamed about when he signed.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        12 years, 10 days ago

        I know. But for 10.3m I need assurance that the player is going to start games and not easily rotated. Good thoughts man, appreciate it.

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

          That's true. But surely wengers not foolish enough to drop him again?

  22. Koflok
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 10 days ago

    West Brom defense anyone?

    They got decent (home) fixtures up to January. And they're doing pretty okay defensively.

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Cheering for Wisdom vs MUN tonight.

      Will probably play him again this week 😉

    2. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Berahino or nowt.

      Wisdom bench luxury

    3. Trading Bear
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Dawson [4.5m] is the pick for most who have West Brom. Not much around for similar price.

  23. troller
    12 years, 10 days ago

    who will top the assists chart at the end of the season ?

    my pick adm

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Baines

      1. BeachBadger
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Fab

    2. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Fabregas easy

    3. halnone
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Silva

    4. Les Bleus
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Fab

    5. zøphar
      12 years, 10 days ago

    Why is everyone looking to ditch Siggy? They obviously didn't watch the game last night. Was unlucky not to score and get an assist for a goal Ki should of scored.

      im perfectly happy with people selling siggy and costa. especially this week home to leicester siggy is cap material. Costa also I have a feeling will start vs utd

    2. Trading Bear

      Possibly Siggy (c) for next game and then out for Chadli for 3 weeks before bringing back in.

      Definitely wouldn't sell Siggy this week.

      Next week it's a bit more understandable given Swansea's fixtures but even then I don't see too many compelling alternatives in that price bracket.

    RMT
    Baines-Azpi-Clyne(Wisdom-Duff)

      Azpi out for Filipe, leave the rest?

      1. ver_sparda
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Kompany/Luis?

    2. Holmes
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Azpi to Kompany/Kaboul?

    Who should I drop of these in order to be able to get Aguero...?

    A. Sterling
    B. Fabregas

    Who to get in ?

    C. Chadli
    D. Downing
    E. Henderson

    Thanks!

    1. kiwi_pool

      Sterling for Chadli if you have to. Sterling is blunt w/o Sturidge running around in front of him.

  28. Koflok

    Team is

    Forster
    Baines Chambers Clyne (Duff Moore)
    AdM Sterling Siggy Ox (Boyd)
    Aguero Pelle Costa

    1 FT 0.5m ITB

    Should I..

    a) Ox -> Chadli
    b) Ox Costa -> Fabregas Sakho (+2.8m to upgrade Pelle to Costa later)
    c) Ox Clyne -> Tadic Wisdom / Hutton
    d) Ox Clyne -> Tadic Naylor (should have been my move last week but to Baines)
    e) Keep
    f) Others?

    Plan is whoever the milf, is just a placeholder for Walcott in 3 weeks time.

    1. kiwi_pool
      12 years, 10 days ago

      A or E.

    Done my transfers early and now I'm scared 🙁

    Espically since one of the players I transferred in is a west brom player...

    1. Stupendous
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Mental and mental

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Had to do it. I won't be a round for price changes and can't risk not doing it. I can only just afford the move and If one of the players involved In the transfers increase/decrease it will screw up my plan.

    2. Les Bleus
      12 years, 10 days ago

      Why did you do that? Prices already changed as well!

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        12 years, 10 days ago

        I did them 8 hours ago 😛

    This worth a -4?

    Ivan, Hazard, Welbeck > Baines, Chadli, Aguero

    Team would be:

    Forster / McCarthy
    Baines / Bertrand / Chambers / Duff / Wisdom
    ADM / Sterling / Siggy / Chadli / Obertan
    Costa / Aguero / Pelle

    1. kiwi_pool
      12 years, 10 days ago

      I don't have Hazard and I'm scared vs. QPR in a fortnight.

      1. oven
        12 years, 10 days ago

        Yeah, might be too sideways. I really want to wait for more news on Costa but I'm afraid of Aguero price rises in the mean time. I can do a straight swap of Costa to Aguero right now.
