A number of midfielders are amongst this evening’s members piece, as we take a look the in-form options at Arsenal, Chelsea, West Ham and Tottenham. We also cast an eye over Diego Costa’s recent form, assess Sergio Aguero’s displays compared to recent campaigns and take time to assess QPR’s in-form frontman after another impressive showing in yesterday’s narrow defeat at the Bridge.

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

    Krul, Foster or Guzan till January?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Foster I think. None of them are reliable for clean sheets though

    2. chocolove

      11 years, 8 months ago

      From fixture,
      Krul already played MCI SOU TOT LIV
      Foster already played SOU EVE TOT LIV MUN
      Guzan already played LIV ARS CHE MCI EVE TOT

      Based on fixture, Guzan > Foster > Guzan

      Based on form, Foster > Krul > Guzan

        Errr... *Based on fixture, Guzan > Foster > *Krul*

      I've had foster and Krul the whole season, from memory I've only benched one cleanie when the other didn't. It's worked quite well and I think I've had 4
      Clean sheets so far.

    Finally got rid of Sterling (brought Chadli in). Heh.

    Foster
    Clyne-Baines-Ivanovic
    Di Maria-Fabregas-Downing-Chadli
    Aguero-Pelle-Berahino

    Subs: Schmeichel - Sigurdsson - Duff, Van Aanholt.

    2.1m ITB to probably do something with Pelle and Clyne later in the game.

    Transfers well planned? Have your say 🙄

    If you still have Costa and not Aguero .

    a) keep Costa
    b) switch Costa to Aguero
    c) accommodate both at the expense of weakening your other positions

    1. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      C

    2. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      C probably

    3. Jafalad

      C. No brainer

    4. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      C until the trail runs cold for 1 of them.

  4. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    How to fill in 4th and 5th mids and 3rd striker spots....

    A. Fabregas, Boyd, Kane/Sakho/Berahino

    B. Chadli, Siggy, Austin...

    Others are DiMaria, Sanchez, Downing and Costa, Aguero.

    Thanks!

    1. whoracle
      • 14 Years

      B imo

      1. Winston.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        B would enable rotation and all of those probably excellent value for money...but limits transfer flexibility...money tied to many players.. On other hand just so hard to ignore Fab, he's a seasonkeeper...excellent player.

        1. whoracle
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Well, sure he is, but you have Costa so you should do just fine.

    2. Costa Nostra

      Jeez that's terrible news. My aunt had it last year but is thankfully in remission now.

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        My mom had to live through the fear of it coming back for 15 yrs. She got it when I was 6 yrs old. It was hell.

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          That sounds like an impossible thing to deal with at that age. My aunt was working with people in an aboriginal place near Alice Springs when she collapsed and they couldn't work out what was wrong with her for weeks. She looked like she'd aged about 30 years.

          1. Christina.
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            Im happy for you that your aunt is ok.

            My mom battled it for my whole school career. Passed away the month after i passed my honors degree. I think she was tired and had enough. Only 60 yrs old.

            I miss her more then ever now that I have kids.

            1. Billy Gilmore
              • 14 Years

              I'm sorry to hear that. At least she was there to see you grow up.

    What transfer(s) would you suggest?

    1. whoracle
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Save it.

      1. Mak_Gold
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers. No point taking another hit this week to get Sanchez in and chase last week's points, right? Would be for Fabregas as well.

        1. whoracle
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Exactly man 🙂

  8. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Morning all,

    So after a bad game week, I've decided I want this team for next week and beyond:

    Forster
    Clyne Baines Chambers
    Sanchez Fab ADM Downing
    Pelle Aguero Sakho

    Downside is I'd need to take some hits...well a few hits!

    Worth it? Makes the game more fun anyway and sets
    Up for the long run until the jam wc.

    1. Randy_Marsh
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      The new template until saints fixtures go down the toilet

  9. Dont give a fuchs
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Drunk transfer last night, sold Sterling > Chadli. YAY or NAY?

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Yay

    2. Randy_Marsh
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Anything is better than Sterling at the min

    3. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Chadli is great value. I don't know why people don't rate him

      1. BeachBadger
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Hes like the opposite of Tadic. He looks so bad but gets points.

  10. Kerrazy
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    what does it means by touch and go? Sakho is believed to be touch and go for Stoke, does it means he's certain to start in the next game? im getting him in.

    1. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      "Touch and go" is like a one night stand.

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      It means 50/50

      1. Billy Gilmore
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        For Stoke, which was Saturday

  11. Viper
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Is it madness to lose Pelle this week to do Sterling & Pelle -> Sanchez & Sakho (other 6.0m striker). No hit.

    Other strikers are Costa and Aguero

    1. whoracle
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Yes it is.

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Pelle is I n great form lei at home keep

    2. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      There must be another way. Im prob selling Tadic and keeping Pelle.

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        I was weighing up Sterling & Costa -> Sanchez & Sakho leaving enough funds to do Pelle -> Costa after the break?

        1. Christina.
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Try another way....who is in midf?

          1. Viper
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            Cesc Sterling Chadli Siggy

            Wildcard an option or over the top? My side is

            Begovic
            Bertrand Rose Baines ( Duff Hutton )
            Fabregas Siggy Chadli Sterling ( Marney )
            Aguero Costa Pelle

            1. Christina.
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 8 months ago

              Siggy/Sterling->?

              or not enough funds?

              1. Viper
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 8 months ago

                Siggy would have to become a 4.4m mid (not Boyd as I have 3 Burnley)

                It is either a striker or just forget about Sanchez/Di Maria

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      yes. He is my captain

      1. Billy Gilmore
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Good call. Very worried about not owning him this week. Tempted to do Siggy –> Mane for a hit

        1. Christina.
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Why am I scared of Downing? I just can't seem to forget how he burned me in his Middles borough days!

          1. Get up ya bum
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            i am still not convinced. Gonna go for sakho and adm with freebies

            1. Christina.
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 8 months ago

              Hmm...Sakho was my choice as Pele replacement as well, but now Im not thinking straight.

              1. Get up ya bum
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 8 months ago

                for welbz me. Pelle going nowhere

                1. Christina.
                  • 16 Years
                  11 years, 8 months ago

                  Yeah, just looking at ticker.

                  I guess I might have to ride the storm with Siggurdson.

        2. Get up ya bum
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          hmmm think i'd hold if i were you mate. Thought you got mane last week?
          What did you use ft on?

          1. Billy Gilmore
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            Na, wasn't confident he'd start in the end (was right) so just did the insanely boring Marney –> Boyd 😆

            1. Get up ya bum
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 8 months ago

              gotta get that housekeeping done sonetimes

    4. Higuita
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Keep Pele for Leicester this weekend, he is gona bang them in for sure

  12. Tomas Brolin ate all Depays
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Currently 164th with 639 points

    DeGea- McCartney
    Clyne - Chambers - Baines - Yun - Moore
    Sanchez - Di Maria - Siggy - Fab - Boyd
    Pelle - Costa - Welbs

    0.5m in bank

    peoples thoughts for this week?

    havent done a -4 all season but wondering about DeGea+Boyd ----> Krul + Downing which leaves 0m in bank but gives me the option of Siggy + Downing as 4th + 5th mid

    1. bigbudgie
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn't dare give you advice!

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      just Siggy --> Downing should be fine IMO

    3. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I don't think that justifies your first hit. Having a heavy 5th Mf is more of a curse than a blessing

    4. Randy_Marsh
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      No Aguero would be my only concern. Solid team obviously with that rank

  13. turboLuck
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling for Barkley or Oscar? Advice plzz..

    1. turboLuck
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Downing also looks an option.

    2. whoracle
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Out of those two? Oscar.

    3. Sunny 😎
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      No other option?

      1. turboLuck
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Hmmm anyone I can do a straight switch for. I can sell Sterling and have 8.7 to get someone.
        Another option is to bench this week and then hope he gets returns when his fixtures ease a bit?

        1. Sunny 😎
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Maybe downgrade somewhere else too and upgrade Sterling to Sanchez/Adm

          1. turboLuck
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            I have ADM. Sanchez requires a -8 hit :/

            1. Sunny 😎
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 8 months ago

              What if you get Downing? Will the funds help somewhere else?

              1. turboLuck
                • 11 Years
                11 years, 8 months ago

                I can do Sterling + Siggy + Chambers >> Downing + Hazard + Dummet for -8. Don't know though...
                It's either -8 or stick with Sterling I think. Then after international break I will have 2 FT.

    4. Moin

    Does anyone think Fellini or Hart will receive retrospective sanctions for

    Fellaini: An alleged spit towards Aguero
    Hart: A head charge towards referee Michael Oliver

    Just curious to hear people's thoughts. Personally I think Hart could be in big trouble!

    1. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years

      I dont think anything will come from either

  15. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Guzan
    Baines / Clyne / Rose
    Sterling / Fab / Sanchez /. Eriksen
    Aguero / Pelle / Berahino
    (McCarthy / Boyd / Wisdom / Saylor)

    2 FT & 0.9m itb...which move should I go for ?

    A) Sterling & Rose -> ADM & Duff
    B) Sterling & Eriksen -> ADM & Downing

    1. Mak_Gold

    Ranked 48K with 557 points.

    Despite being 16pts above average I've dropped overall (ok only by 200 places)..., those who are bringing that average of 43 points up are smashing it in the top 50K....(obviously I do get how an average works)

    Life in the top 50K is tough hey! Only 29 points off top 10K but it feels like a lot to make up in one week. I guess a captain explosion and other players blanking would do it.

    Best rank this season is 25K

    I want more!!!

    Why are so many taking Costa out for the int break and planning to bring him back in just after the break?

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      To accommodate Sanchez

    2. Randy_Marsh
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Most took him out 2 weeks ago, I'm planning to bring him back in soon. Chelsea's fixtures are too good to resist

      I had 8/11 players register good points (6+) and still barely moved up due to captaining Costa.. Very high scoring game week up top

      1. BeachBadger

        Same 9/11 scored well and I had to captain one of the other teo lol

    Any advice guys?

    Foster
    Baines, Clyne, Chambers
    Fabregas, Di Maria, Sanchez, Downing
    Costa, Aguero, Berahino

    Subs : - Elliot, Wisdom, Boyd, Moore

    I think maybe Sakho back in for Berahino but I don't want to take another -4 for that so I'll do that next GW?

      I'm in the same spot. Has to be foster, but difficult one. I also have wisdom so I'm tempted to hedge
