As we brace ourselves for yet another international break, we turn to Saturday and Sundayโ€™s fixtures and delve into the data in our first members article of the week. We assess Southamptonโ€™s chief creator and main frontman as the points start to dry up, cast an eye over Chelseaโ€™s penalty box predator, Man Cityโ€™s talismanic Argentine and Newcastleโ€™s recent defensive displays as the clean sheets keep coming for Alan Pardewโ€™s men.

    Which 2 would u prefer in ur team?

    A) chambers and tadic
    B) creswell and siggy

    Any why?

    Cheers guys

    1. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B. Better form and fixtures. Chambers/cresswell is debatable but def siggy over Tadic

    2. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B

      Cresswell is a better pick than Chambers.
      Siggy is a better pick than Tadic.

    i have ; FAB , Siggy , Dowing , Sanchez , ADM > 5.1 M player

    Costa & Berahino

    ADM & Pelle > 5.1 M player & Agüero for - 4 pts

    Yaay

    Naay

      Nay

  3. Van Dal
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    So how is Clyne and Wellbeck > Baines and Ayoze for -4?

    Only way to gwlet baines in without losing fabs adm sanchez costa or kun.

    1. HellasLEAF
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      not sure if it's worth a hit but if you must, Baines almost a must own now.

    2. Delhidynamo
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Decent. Any other options in the Ayoze bracket you considered?

      1. Van Dal
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Bojan and zamora

    3. Do I Not Like Orange

      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Do it. I've just done Pelle/PVA > Ayoze/Baines. Not sure I fancy Ayoze as a longer-term option and may try to swap him for Austin in a few weeks, but might as well try and cash in on his and Newcastle's run of form while it lasts.

    4. Sunny ๐Ÿ˜Ž
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I don't like it

  4. HellasLEAF
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    I am really intrigued by Oscar but have been burned by him so many times before.

    Am gonna swap Sterling for either Chadli or pay the bit more for Oscar. Already have Fabs too though, but still.

    Opinions appreciated here.

    1. Willis.
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Oscar does far too much defensive work to ever be a good FPL pick.

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        So Chadli for this week or stand pat.

  5. money face bandwagon
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    currently with pelle and downing..which combi seems the best going forward?

    a) downing + austin and bank the cash
    b) downing + bony
    c) oscar/sterling + austin
    d) stick with pelle and downing

    1. ZTF
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      C. Oscar

    2. HellasLEAF

      11 years, 5 months ago

      D

    Any good?

    • 16 Years

    Next time I'll listen RMT. If i had played Duff I'd be on 87 pts last GW.

  8. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years

    If Welbeck played for a bigger team like Manchester United he'd be priced at 10m. Period

    Anyone considering Caulker till january wildcard for his fixtures and goal threat? Or Jun is 100% nailed on and no reason to pay 4,7?

    1. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Im tempted.

    2. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      unsure whether caulker is worth 0.8 more than yun..especially the 0.8 could do clyne->azpi

  10. andres
    • 14 Years

    Costa worth the trouble?

    On 4 YC and injury prone, scarred going without tho..

    1. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      he might score a few goals b4 he gets the yc

    2. Crystal
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Yes but would like him to get booked against WBA

    3. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He is worth it. Taking a 2 week break(not going on Internationals). Amazeballs fixtures coming up.

      Forget about the possible 5th YC. Last season people didn't get Suarez when he was one game short of a suspension and he went something like 10 games without picking up the final YC.

    4. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I'm getting him in. It is a slight risk as he could pick up his 5th yellow soon, but I'm more worried about the rotation he'll face over the Christmas period. I guess I'll deal with that problem closer to the time.

    5. Sunny ๐Ÿ˜Ž
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Hopefully he gets a YC before a midweek cup game

    6. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Someone mentioned yesterday that Suarez went a fair while before getting his fifth yellow and burned loads who were worried about bringing him in for the same reason but that is suarez

      Any idea if you'll be doing any other leagues TM? Elite 64 etc?

        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        50/50 on anything else atm. If someone was willing to do a good chunk of work then I'd be more inclined to run them. Promoting etc becomes a task plus I'd rather know each team (FFS user) entered rather than lurkers entering regardless of their rank. Would add to the competition.

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Ah okay, fair enough. I might be able to help depending on what you need done and when you would start them up.

            GW29 for FPL Open, GW31 for Elite 64

            The rest start Xmas/Jan WC but are easy enough to run.

              Early March then. I'll be starting Uni around then so I'll have some free time in the weeks leading up to that to help you out if you want.

        1.42m GW rank survived this week. Hopefully soon you'll need to be top 1m for the GW to survive.

  12. Fader

    Foster

    Can some1 explain to me why creswell is so good? Not being sarky, I genuinely need information.

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years

      Fixtures, attacking potential, BPS magnet.

      1. Jonny Sutt
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Shall I wait till after the Everton game to bring him in?

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Probably.

    2. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      You need to see Dr Doosra for that one, all I know I'd that he scored a lovely 9pts this week.

    3. Fader
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Got most assists last season in the championship

    4. Mr. Bean
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      he's a crosser, 6 successful crosses, 2 assists last four matches, just behind Baines with 7 and 3

      1. Sunny ๐Ÿ˜Ž
        • 13 Years

        Carroll + Cresswell partnership could be lethal for hammers!

        1. Jarvis
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Carroll Sakho and Valencia, all excellent headers - exciting times!

  14. BurkyBoy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Wow... Good round, in top 10K for first time ever!

    Considering the following transfers (first two probably need to be done quick due to rises).
    A) Sigurdsson->Chadli
    Bad move? Siggy really a season keeper, and will lose 0,4 on the move. But Chadli on fire..
    B) Marney->Wanyama
    Gives me a playable 5th mid, may play him next round as Downing/Siggy have bad fixtures, but spends 0,3 + a FT on 5th mid.
    C) Fabregas->Oscar
    Fab may be injured according to JM, also plays too deep to be involved in Chelsea's attacks…his best assist changes seems to be corners. But he's also very consistent, and I will lose 0,4 on the move.
    D) Save FT or wait
    E) Consider chipping out Pelle, Chambers, Foster..

    What do you think?

    1. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      A is poor move with the upcoming fixture
      B is also not advisable as soton fixture turning..rather have boyd..not worth spending a transfer on too
      C could work out
      D best move imo unless fab declared out
      E none not worth taking out yet

      so in short C or D

    2. rickardinho
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      a and b don't make sense.

      I have oscar and am going to do fab>sanchez tonight most likely. oscar is the best chelsea mid to have imo.

      zero need to sell chambers or foster. pelle can wait

      1. BurkyBoy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah.. I tend to agree with both of you. Oscars stats aren't really much better than Fabregas, but it seems essential to have at least 2 attacking Chelsea players, and Oscar at least is cheaper + plays higher on the field.

        Marney-Wanyama could make sense in my opinion, sometimes you will have to play your 5th mid and at least he's a better pick than Marney/Boyd I think.

  15. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    I think someone on here (maybe Granville) called it last week that a few Adm/Siggy/Sterling/Welbz sellers may get stung, seems they did a tad but I suppose that long term plans take time.

    1. rickardinho
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      how hard is it to call that "a few sellers MAY get stung". I hardly consider myself to have been stung by Siggy since Oscar got 10 points the round before and his fixtures are awesome for 7GW's upcoming. I kept Sterling too (regretfuly i must admit due to how sanchez did), but he'll perform well again i reckon. ADM is gonna sting some people for sure.

      1. HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Just a big thanks to the community, when I found this site after 4 GWs I was at 1.6M overall and -50 to the leader in $ mini league.

    Now, after 93 points in 11th GW I'm at 52k overall and +70 over the leader. Green arrows all the time since then.

          Not so sure in that one mate, check that out first before you do anything.
          I know Barfsley got injured so that may just be a short term window, and anyways Stoke can't seem to keep a cs, Colo?

    ADM and Pelle could go down 0.2 over the break each?

  26. Overlordleo
    • 11 Years

    Di Maria to drop even more during the break and Sanchez to rise or can I wait with my transfers?
