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

    @Evs

    I'd definitely lose Tadic

    He's only scored more than 5 twice this season once was a 6 the other was his 23 pointer that clouded everyone''s judgement, as, bar Long, literally everyone who played for Saints that game got at least 5

      Hmmm ...

      1. JK - Cønt â­
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        you think I am wrong?

          1. JK - Cønt â­

            • 14 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            to me it's a simple matter of this Evs' dilemma is

            Tadic and Welbeck

            or

            Sanchez and Sakho

            Think the latter wins every time

    2. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I think I will mate, and the fixtures are turning.

      I still have Pelle v Lei.

      Thoughts on Sakho as part of the trade instead of Welbekc ?

      -4pts

      1. JK - Cønt â­
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        so it's Tadic and Welbeck to Sanchez and Sakho âť“

        I like that

        1. Evs
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          For -4pts. Yep.

    3. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      surely not before leicester at home though. leicester look terrible, and statistically tadic is still delivering. plus all it takes is a pen

    4. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I would definitely give him the game at home to Leicester first

    5. Heydudes13
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Cashing in on Tadic after Leicester at home.

      1. JK - Cønt â­
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        comes down to this mate

        Tadic and Welbeck
        v

        Sanchez and Sakho

        The latter is better and he still has Pelle

        1. Heydudes13
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          The fact that he has Pelle makes me give it the go ahead.

          I agree, just talking about what I'm gonna do.

    6. SC not pearls before swine
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'm happy to keep Tadic for another couple weeks. Southampton are bound to get a penalty eventually and the stats are decent. That said, I still haven't watched a Southampton game start to finish since they played Liverpool week 1 đź†

  2. Gravless wonder
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Both rivals got Chambers this week...is it worth getting him or is another 4.5 ish defender a better option

    1. Sean
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      na he is the best

  3. VougieDipond
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Everyone getting Downing now it seems. Is he better to own than Sakho?

    1. Sean
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      no i would prefer sakho

    2. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      not better than, but he is good value

  4. GummiG
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Yall actually think that taking a 4point hit: Hazard, Sterling >> Alexis, Downing is reasonable?
    10,6m is quite the price tag for Alexiss

    1. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Avoid getting rid of Haz, see if you can get Sanchez in another way. But as a last resort, I'd do it. But I would want to get Haz back in soon, his stats are looking more and more promising.

      1. GummiG
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Think I'll just get in Downing for Sterling now...
        Then I'll have some in the bank to tinker with after a week

  5. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    My £40 acca for a £270 return is down to the last bet.

    SF 49ers to beat SL Rams, currently 10-10 at HT.

    There is no cash out option but should I place a bet on the Rams @53/20 to cover my bet?

    1. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I would

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        How much would you put on?

        1. VougieDipond
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          £20 or 30. enough to get all your money back at least if the worst comes to worst

  6. Screaming Midget
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    What do you all think about the early transfers vs injury risk?

    Do you think if you did every transfer as soon as the last significant game of the GW had been played, you'd come out on top? (vs the number of times a big player is injured during the week in training or a European game)

    1. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I only do it if I might get priced out

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      If you like doing hits then do the hits early. It's risky to start with but the increased TV means you end up with a full squad quicker than the rest of the game to ride out any injury risks later on. And never leave an injured minor player in your squad...you'll need them.

    3. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I think early transfers can be beneficial early in the season when players are rising and building TV is important. I would be less likely to pull the trigger on an early transfer in, say, GW30.

      1. Think Tank
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I usually transfer in early and take the risk if it means jumping on early price rises. The exception would be doubtful players (eg Sakho)

  7. Lallana_
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Will owning Chambers, Sanchez and Welbeck be overkill? Arsenal have decent fixtures ahead.

    1. Screaming Midget
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I have Chambers and Sanchez but no interest in Welbeck. I'd shift him to Sakho

    2. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I don't think it's overkill, but would probably swap out Welbeck anyway.

    3. SC not pearls before swine
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I've had the triple up for the last two weeks. May sell Welbz at some point but the only downside I see is that you're blocked off from getting Walcott/Ramsey without selling Sanchez or making at least two transfers.

    4. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I have all three. Chambers is a steal. Welbeck should be a steal and Sanchez is Sanchez. Not overkill but I may be looking to get rid of Welbeck soon

    5. danishdynamite
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wellbeck > Sahko is far too much foa non-brainer to not do IMHO.

  8. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Chambo: would anyone drop Bertrand for Chambers on a FT, so as to avoid chambo from rising agan tonite and prob again this gw?

    *would still keeep clyne.

    1. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Yup, but I'd drop Clyne instead.

      Would probably get rid of both before the GW13 start of horror fixtures anyway.

    2. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      yes if you have clyne too. not a bad time to lose a southampton defender

    3. Total Foot 5
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      btn the 2, best to have clyne as he has more Bonus pontetila right? hes had 7. altho bertrand is more offense oriented imo.

    4. the cromulent one
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'd say that it is worth it. Southampton's fixtures turn in a few weeks, so you'll have to get rid of one of them before too long.

  9. Viper
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I need some help. I know I need action on this side but I'm just not sure. I have 2 FTS and don't mind taking a hit..

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

    Any ideas? Only 0.1m itb...

    1. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Got a similar squad, Sterling to Sanchez and I'm downgrading Costa to Sakho, will get Costa back in for Pelle after the break

    2. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling, Costa --> Sakho, Sanchez? That should leave you with enough to do Pelle back to Costa after Costa settles back in.

      1. dush64
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Lol, exactly the same as the comment above.

    3. Viper
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Great suggestion. I might just have to go with that!

      Is Sakho fit?

  10. Mr Smith
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on this team for next week:

    Forster
    Clyne, Chambers, Wisdom
    ADM, Fab, Sanchez, Downing
    Costa, Kun, Pelle

    Subs: Elliot, Dummet, Hutton, Albrighton

    0ft and 0.1m ITB

    Any improvements needed?

    1. Viper
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Excellent side. Not much more you can do with that!

      1. Mr Smith
        • 15 Years

        Cheers matey.

  11. boc610

    Anyone who gets Downing will flush him the
    second he gets a two pointer

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Totally. A footballer is for the season not just for a goal feat. 🙂

    Assuming expensive fwds and cheap defs, 343, one cheap mid playing every week....

    Which three mids are your most wanted?

    I think sanchez, hazard, adm for me, thats the dream anyway....too expensive though.

    1. JK - Cønt â­
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Yup, way too much, define cheap

      Currently I'm rolling with

      Sanchez, ADM, Siggy,. Chadli

      Costa, Kun, Berahino

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      above ^

    3. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      those 3 for sure. if you were to only own one though, who would it be?

    4. Bad Seed
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I have Sanchez, Fab and ADM. Fab for consistency. The others for explosiveness.

    5. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I am only going with Costa or Aguero not both. So i can keep ADM, haz, Sanchez and Baines

    6. Sean
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      is barkley nailed on in the center for everton?Would you consider him?

      1. Sean
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        damn i've been reply failing so much recently đź™

  14. A guy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Between Di Maria and Sanchez...Sanchez looks like the next Suarez, but Di Maria's fixtures are better. What do you guys have to say?

    1. joinho
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I have both but if could only have one would be Sanchez atm.

    2. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Went ADM over Sanchez. He will outscore him over the next 4 games

      1. Heydudes13
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        ^ Dis guy đź†

      2. A guy
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        That's what I'd say as well, but getting Sanchez will become really hard after this week and he seems to be at the end of everything Arsenal do.

      3. A guy
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Because guys like him are always considered long term and it looks like he's going to outscore Di Maria.

  15. joinho

    Sterling (out) - Downing (in) done!

  16. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Some help please! Should I play Wisdom or Colo next week? Or both? Or is it insane as they're facing eachother? Could see that game ending 0-0 though...

    1. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      who are your other defenders?

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Clyne & Ivan

        1. Flycroft
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          wisdom for me

    2. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Go with the homeboy

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Makes sense. NUFC form seems to be getting better with each game though.

  17. Flycroft
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    doosra thanks for reply regarding Tomkins. I will hold him then, if he holds down the position now he should bring home the bacon til january wildcard time. looks to be a great pick

  18. Sydney Saints
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I'd like to trade Sterling this week. Options are:
    A) Di Maria
    B) Sanchez
    C) Hazard

    I already have Welbeck and Fabs.

    Probably leaning towards DiMaria with their schedule. Any thoughts much appreciated!

    1. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'd want both Sanchez and ADM. Probably Sanchez now, then you catch his rises and can make a move for ADM after the Arsenal game.

    2. joinho
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sanchez is a must have right now

    3. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Welbeck is not coverage for Sanchez. Would get Sanchez and look to get rid of Welbeck

      1. Sydney Saints
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks everyone. Sanchez it is!

  19. Crouch Potato!
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Have 5.3m to spend on a mid in order to do get Sanchez for Sterling. Was looking at Milner, is he assured gametime?

    1. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      i would avoid, nasri is now fit again

      1. Gravless wonder
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        awkward price point, much better options at 5.4 or 5.5. I'd save the money and go for Wanyama

    2. Crouch Potato!
      • 14 Years

    Welbeck,Diego Costa,Agüero

    0.3 ITB. I can't seem to get Sanchez without taking a -8, or a -4 while dropping someone I'd prefer not to đź™

      Yeah, it doesn't look like there's an easy road there. Guess, I'd lean toward sacrificing Fabregas, but as a nonowner I can testify to how painful it is not having him...

    Can it be argued that ditching Sterling to get Sanchez is a bad move especially for a hit ? . I think in most cases timing is the key and the time to do this move was three weeks ago when the fixtures were Hull, Sunderland and Burnley . Liverpool have palace , Stoke , leicester and Sunderland in the next five. I think people sometimes don't realise the have missed the boat . Thoughts ?

      No

      No, I'd wait after the CL matches though if you can afford it

      if you have the funds and the FT's to get on board i think you should do it.

      no such thing as missing the boat

      People said the same last week and got burned. I taken a hit for chambers and sanchez in this gw and have been rewarded. Liverpool are crap. Still a good time to make the move.

      I dumped Sterling for Downing because of value and the next fixture. I am planning on getting him back after the international break though.

    This was suggested to me last page. Looks good to me. What do ye reckon?

    Sterling & Costa -> Sanchez & Sakho.

    It leaves me with enough to do Pelle - > Costa after the break. 2 FTs so no hit been taken..

    1. Declan

      I don't like it

      1. Viper
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        You'd want to hold onto Costa?

        1. Declan
          • 15 Years

          Aye, I don't have him, but thinking of bringing in.

            Good to re-assess after the break.

    2. ALegendJ
      • 11 Years

      Seems like a plan

    3. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Very tempted to do the same. Surely Sanchez & Sakho can match / exceed Sterling & Costa?

      I'd say do it

    Foster
    Bertrand Baines Duff
