As we brace ourselves for yet another international break, we turn to Saturday and Sunday’s fixtures and delve into the data in our first members article of the week. We assess Southampton’s chief creator and main frontman as the points start to dry up, cast an eye over Chelsea’s penalty box predator, Man City’s talismanic Argentine and Newcastle’s recent defensive displays as the clean sheets keep coming for Alan Pardew’s men.
Walcott GW10: played 11 minutes.
Walcott GW11: played 12 minutes.
I hope you brought your packed lunches. This could take a while.
wenger said it January. True story
So he should be back to full games sometime in 2017.
Hmm 78 more gameweeks til full fitness 😆
Is Ayoze a viable option?
Not really
If Coloccini is injured I will have to play both Wisdom (che) and Naylor (mci) :/
oooo. i don't mind playing attackers from the underdogs, especially against City but a clean sheet is just not on the cards
Sorry for reposting! But I need some help desperately!
Di Maria OR Fabregas and Pelle for Sanchez and Austin tonight???
Fabs. 4 ycs
Fabregas beats ADM as who to keep. And Pelle beats Austin.
So ADM to Sanchez is the best and only move.
Not for me. Keep Pelle and fab, must be other ways to get Sanchez?
Pelle doesn't have fixtures on his side though?
Team:
Forster
Clyde Baines Chambers Wisdom Taylor
Fab ADM Siggy Downing
Aguero Costa Pelle
0.1 and 1FT in bank so no idea what to do!
Have to love early transfers during international break.
lol quite!
When cash is tight we are force to it. I want 3 transfers all 3 are rising and have only 0.1 spare in the bank.
hasn't burned me yet!
though it almost did when welbeck almost got sent off vs chelsea after i transferred him in the night before 😛
People aren't actually making transfers are they??
I've made 6 so far this wk!
Yep, I'm afraid they are. Some of them are even selling Pelle just to add to the madness.
0 shots on target in the last three
Im considering doing it as I know I'll likely to to make it before the games and I dont want to be constantly looking over my shoulder at price rises every day lol
Those with Krul and Mannone: what do you plan to do? Obviously, we can get by with NEW 's fixtures but there comes a time when the second keeper becomes a necessity.
Thoughts?Jan WC surely?
Not sure Krul can keep the cs going until then SD. 😕
as opposed to whom? cleansheets are rare and a bit random, certainly on the budget end
Some teams seem to be doing q well with them e.g SWN, AVL, STH,
i think villa is a bad place to go in search of clean sheets, maybe good for save points. other teams have them figured out already i fear. forster a decent option but a waste a southampton player i reckon
Mannone to Foster for me
Rots well but I'n not totally convinced by WBA. Is there anyone else who rots with Krul?
not in a hurry to sell, would need a FT where i'd nothing better to do. if it comes to it, i'll wait till january WC to shift
Fair comment.
I would just ride him out till Jan WC. Keepers seem pretty useless this year anyway, they never get bonus and with rotation you often miss the points.
Very true. Good point made.
I have Pants and Mannone lol
Why is that Willee?
Fantasy Genius, I told you Chadli on the bench would punish you!
lol and i even agreed!
cant complain with 89(-4) though
😆
😆
Yeah great score!your score and rank though 😯
I'm shocked myself 😀
what would you do with this lot
Forster
Clyne, Janmaat, Wilson
Sanchez, ADM, Tadic, Chadli
Kun, Costa, Austin
McCarthy, Downing, Naylor, Hutton
1ft, 0.4mTadic and Clyne to cheap mid and Baines over the next few weeks.
Innsie mate you stuck another point on me you dog!
One step at a time... 😆
😆
In a pickle:
Dummett PVA Moore Duff Wisdom
PVA > ?
4.5 max
CheersMonkey Island!
Don't rate his CS potential.
5 of the top 6 owned players have negative NTI's today. That template is well and truly being smashed to bits!
why is everyone chucking ADM? Arsenal hardly look watertight
He has got to be in the top 2/3 mids over the course of the season for me, I really don't get the sellers.
shhh, he needs to be cheap in gw13 😉
this year is great fpl-wise with no template sticking. it's a free for all and more exciting for it. it's like the real premier league last year 🙂
Berahino Sakho Austin or Ayoze?
(I've got Downing)
I have berahinho, after watching moth, i thought ayoze was brilliant. Might wait another week and then get him
Forster
Baines Chambers Duff
Sanchez Fabregas Chadli Siggy
Aguero Costa Pelle
(Elliot, Hutton, Moore, Albrighton)
1FT 1.0million ITB
Should save till after the internationals/find out about injuries or do any of the following to beat price rises/drops?
A) Pelle -> Austin
B) Fabregas -> ADM/Hazard
C) Save FT/wait
Who would you rather have for the next 2 games?
Austin or Berahino?
Berahino next two - Chelsea away and Arsenal home.
Austin next two - Newcastle away and Leicester home.
Austin has scored 4 goals in the last three.
Berahino has scored 1 goal in the last three.
Austin - Form+Fixtures
Berahino - NeitherASutin
Austin
Muppet rage unoted thinks Berahino is the better choice. 😆
*United
What are people doing with Tadic? Tempted to sell but his stats are insane and he is so explosive he could go wild at villa park and god knows what he will do to liverpool and utd
*not liverpool.. arsenal
Selling, but for Walcott, I think he's the best midfielder under 8m
good point
last chance saloon
I did Tadic > Chadli. He may have good stats, but without the Sunderland match, he only has 3 assist. Liverpool + Man Utd could be tough fixtures for Southampton.
* Man City and Man Utd
Chadli or Mane?
Surely Chadli can't keep this up all season?chadli. Mane's fixtures are bad and he is no LONGer guaranteed a starting berth 😉
Yeah that performance from Long has to put him in contention to start, watching the highlights Mane looked decent and could have scored himself
I really hate his returns, the new Yoyo and Ramsey this year. But who knows really. He scored 6 goals from 8shots on target. I am sure he can't keep it up. But when will that time come? God knows
He's a natural finisher. He'll keep ticking over.
Thanks guys, think he's worth a punt, and at least assured game time over Mane
ADM + Pelle + Rafeal out > Ageuro + Chadli +Yun in for - 8 ?
Yay
NayRafael? Really? I ddidn't like it, until I saw Rafael in there. Go for it
Nada
Re-post, bottom of las page
Could u help me on this one lads,my team is
Forster Elliot
Baines Chambers Wisdom Duff Hutton
Siggy Hazard Tadic ADM Boyd
Aguero Pelle Sakho
2FT and 2.9M
Should I grab the bull by the horns and go
Forster ADM Pelle > Krul Sanchez Costa
for the exact money tonight while I still have the chance to do so ?you'd be making a mistake. Costa on 4yc's with sturridge back soon 😉 .. also adm will outscore sanchez in the next 3-4 gw's imo. Krul is a good choice though.
Ivanovich -> Baines with FT? Or just leave team as is & do something when i get 2FTs?
Mannone/Krul
Ivan/ Chambers/ Betrand (Wisdom, Alcaraz)
Sanchez/ Siggy/ ADM/ Fabby (Davis)
Pelle/ Costa/ Sakho
0.6 in bank
Woke up to 83 points. Didn't expect that earlier this week. Can't believe my transfers giving return.
Hopefully I can break the 10k mark this yearNice one spud 🙂
Cheers Champ!
This is my team. Sanchez is killing my ranking even I did quite well in the pask weeks.
Forster (Hamer)
Baines Bertrand Chambers (Moore Duff)
Hazard Downing Chadli Sigurdsson (Boyd)
Aguero Costa Pelle
How do I get Sanchez into this lot? I'm thinking of going 3-5-2 by doing Boyd out for Sanchez and Pelle out for Ayoze/Kane. What do you think? Thanks.3-5-2 with 3 sub 7m mids. Not a fan but hard to ignore Sanchez.
Very similar to my team (above)
Pelle + Bertrand/Forster + Chadli/Siggy to Austin + cheap def/gk + Sanchez
I will be doing Pelle to Austin either way but should I do it now to catch the rises as I need every penny to do Cork to Siggy the week after too..?!
A) sell Pelle for Austin now!
B) Keep FTB. Pelle has the better fixture. Points over value
Thanks
b
Lee Mason what a coward. He walked towards Gomez to give him a yellow before remembering that he'd have to send him off
Yep. Chicken balls!!!!
Really? Poor form. It's either yellow or it ain't
Alright lads,
Does anyone know if Eriksen is close to a drop? Need shot of him fast. He has burned me again this season !!!!
Fk him just sell him now
Yeah, but have two frees and need to do another move to fund selling him to Hazard. Not entirely sure of WTD as other transfer...
Anything, sell him for Boyd. Anything.
I sold him today, frustrated me. I have a hatred for him/Pochettino now.
I was all set to do Welbeck > Austin when it occurred to me that he may have a point or two to prove to LVG...
You're staying put Danny. Don't let me (and yourself) down!It's either that move for me, or Clyne to Colo...
Has to go for me. That money can be better used elsewhere
Welbeck been a little unfortunate not to pick up a goal in recent weeks. Got to be a fair shout to score at home to his old club.
I keep him all along just for this fixture!
Draft league team has Oscar, Fab and DCosta vs WBA next week.
Haawwwwwlllll incoming.
Top 5K and still no Sanchez....by luck not skill though. I'm still not getting him in until gwk 13, nervous times ahead.
He could be close to 11.5m by then Jonty. Good work on your rank though
Could well be...but will just take it. Depends on injuries though. ManU defence is still quite stingy. Chelsea barely managed a draw.
A late injury time equalizer for United is barely making a draw now 😉 Agree though United are not as leaky as I was expecting though it was only Palace without Zaha and Jedinak so hardly world beaters there
Surely he'll deliver again vs the United defence, Arsenal have a poor defence, so will have to score goals, so Sanchez will be involved
+1
Nervous times indeed Jonty! It's a show of your experience that you haven't torn your team apart to get him. I'm in the same boat with Costa. Up to 2.3k now but next week's game against wba is a worry!
Bloody Costa.... gonna be the bane of my International week that poxy lummox!
😆 he's fast becoming one of my fpl mortal enemies that I just can't get right along with Rooney.
Hopefully we get an injury to one of the big guns so i can make the swap without quite so much fear!
Yeah that would be grand
That's the key...would involve a big old pair of scissors to rip apart my team. Gwk 13 is when it all changes fixture wise so makes sense to get him in them.
Stay strong!!!
I admire conviction in ones thoughts. Its normally something Im strong on, but ive made a couple of bad errors by going against my better judgement this season - a harsh lesson re-learnt.
We had identical teams going into this week jonty, but I do not share your vision
Have just ripped my team apart and taken sterling and pelle out for Sanchez and Austin (-4).
Hes just in too good form to ignore now, and price is just going to keep rising, so I've got on the boat. It seems a steady one
Howard should have saved that free kick
If you're a baines owner - yes he should
I am!
Larsson - Take a bow.
What is considered a 'casual' player??
my friend Abi who has Adebayor and Lambert up front - pretty much based on last seasons form
People without gravs 😛
The 5% of people with cattermole in their teams
Pantillimon to get a good run with Sunderland now?
until he Digivolves into his final form
