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.

    Anyone else feel next week is ulloa's week

    1. Zasa
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Can't see any reason why tbh, invisible man right now

    2. Bartowski
      11 years, 11 months ago

      It's definitely a shame then that it's internationals week...

  3. Minty1337
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Really want to get hazard in. Loomed amazing against Liverpool. Sensing some big hauls. Am I crazy tho?

    Thinking di maria & mannone - given and hazard?
    my team
    Guzan - mannone
    Taylor - clyne - Moore - duff - chambers
    Fabregas - Sanchez - wanyama - ADM- jedinak
    Costa - Aguero - Pelle.

    1. Minty1337
      11 years, 11 months ago

      $0 ITB and ADM I could sell at 9.8

    2. fitzy
      11 years, 11 months ago

      That would leave you with Fabs Hazard and Costa. As good as Chelsea have been having all 3 is just limiting potential scores.

      1. Minty1337
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Yea the triple up is a tough decision. You think it's not worth, even though their fixtures are pretty tight?

  4. Zep
    11 years, 11 months ago

    If you had to choose now, who would you choose...

    Austin or Sahko...

    1. Demí
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Austin. Pens and better looking fixtures

    2. Zasa
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Austin as of right now

    3. Puyol Pants Up
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Austin

  5. ChampionoftheWorld

    What happened to colocinni? Any news on the injury?

  6. jp3
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Does anyone here use FantasyFootballFix.com?

    If so, did you have any trouble logging in (it's just FPL site details)?

    Further to this - should I bother with it?

  7. Sheldon420
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Hope you all had a good week. Pretty happy with the team for next GW so was thinking of saving the FT this week. No Sanchez gives me Costa, Aguero, ADM, Baines, Fabregas and Pelle, so I'm not very stressed about it. What would you do with this lot?

    Begovic
    Bertrand Baines Moore
    Fabregas ADM Downing Siggy
    Costa Aguero Pelle

    Gilks Chester Marney Wisdom

    1 FT, 0.2m ITB

    Cheers!

    1. RSe
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Very similar team (linked in profile). Terrified of no Sanchex but think am gonna try and hold FT. Austin and Sanchez in for Fab and Pelle after next GW is still easy with price risers so maybe holding till after intls is best?

  8. Bolivian Seaman
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I came 4k in this gameweek. Does that worry anyone if that had happened to you?

    I won't come 4k next gw (twice in a row) so I feel like I have to make a drastic move, clyne+welbeck to terry+austin? 4 point hit

    1. AlCapwnUK
      11 years, 11 months ago

      just had my best gameweek ever. holding my transfer at the moment

    2. Yam-es
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      How do u find out where u came in this GW? Am I being stupid?

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Go to points, and it says the rank near the gk and how many transfers you made

        1. Yam-es

      Crazier things happen

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        11 years, 11 months ago

        🙂

    4. Bartowski
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I wouldn't take a hit to remove Clyne before he faces Villa

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah. I just want Terry, I think he will be the next big point scorer in defence

  9. Puyol Pants Up
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I know its a long way away but..

    Who do I start?

    Dummett (QPR H)
    Cameron (BUR H)

    Leaning towards Cameron..

    1. Lucy.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah Cameron. Burnley struggle for goals , whereas Austin's in hot form for QPR.

    2. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Dummett more likely to start

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Cameron is nailed in the midfield due to Whelans injury and can play RB/LB. OOP cheap defender 😀
        Should of scored last weak against West Ham.

        1. Demí
          11 years, 11 months ago

          He didn't start today?

          1. Puyol Pants Up
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Played 80 min?

            1. Demí
              11 years, 11 months ago

              What Innsie said

        2. President John F. Keninnsie
          11 years, 11 months ago

          He's not. He only came on against Spurs (at RB) as Bardsley got injured.

          1. Puyol Pants Up
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Oh.. Well.. Uhmm... *deletes post*

    3. AlCapwnUK
      11 years, 11 months ago

      On a similar note, probably going to start Duff ahead of Dummett next week, as I already have Krul in goal, and QPR are having a bit of a resurgence.

    4. chinmusic
      11 years, 11 months ago

      If I can't decide I use the clean sheet odds, assuming not much a attacking threat. Burnley have scored in 3 or 4 of their last five and Stoke usually find a way to concede so I'd say play Dummett with Newcastle's form. It's not a good week to bring in Austin.

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I think Cameron has more of an attacking threat then Dummett. Yes stoke concede regularly, but Austin is inform and could easily get a brace against Newcastle.

        1. chinmusic
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Neither has much. I reckon Austin will blank but we shall see

  10. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
    11 years, 11 months ago

    How does this sound for -4?

    Sterling, tadic + welbeck 》sanchez, chadli + sakho/austin

    1. Hurricane
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Sounds good . Austin .

  11. FredrikH
    11 years, 11 months ago

    ADM and Sakho -> Hazard and Austin (-4). Would you?

    1. Lucy.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      No I wouldn't.

    2. Hurricane
      11 years, 11 months ago

      No

    3. AlCapwnUK
      11 years, 11 months ago

      ADM could easily get some points against a leaky Arsenal defence

    4. A.T
      11 years, 11 months ago

      No

    5. FredrikH
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks for the comments. I'll hold on for another week.

  12. FortunesAlwaysHiding
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Didn't see the game yesterday but how did Montero play? Looking at a possible draft league pick as an alternative to Siggy. Swansea have some nice fixtures coming up.

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He played well, one of the best players of the game. Attacking wise he isn't likely to get loads of points but may get a goal or two

    2. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Tore Chambers to shreds down the Swansea left but really lacked the end product when he hit the byline, exciting player but will probably troll you like Taarabt has done previously.

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Has two assists in the last three though right?

        1. Parm
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Still a bit disappointed given how well he performed, get him.

  13. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I think i'm in a dodgy position, sat happy with 2FT's but i've got the likes of Begovic, Tadic & Berahino in my side, all of which aren't exactly bad options, but I seem to want rid of all three in search for 'perfection'(the template team).

    Which of the three should really be my priority?

    1. Hurricane
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Begovic

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Don't reckon they'll keep out Burnley?

        1. Hurricane
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Long term I think you should get rid of begovic

    2. Call Me Old Fashioned
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Berahino has worst fixture of the 3 so he would be one I would cut if in that position

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah, Austin looks great.

      2. FionnMac
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Not just about the next GW mate. Has to be Bego (although not immediately)

    3. FionnMac
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I have those 3 as well. See my post few below this. Fixtures are good for Bego and Tadic this week, so was gunna get rid of them both before GW13. Not sure what to do with Berahino, I've just bought him but kinda already want rid!

      I'd say Bego out of the 3 has the worst run of fixures with the exception of Burnley next up. Right up until early Jan. So get rid of him next GW at the very least

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Begovic out next gameweek looks like a priority, but I want Chadli & Austin in for Tadic & Berahino this week though. Frustrating.

        1. FionnMac
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Why frustrating? Can't you just do what I said? Tadic has Villa this week, Spurs are away vs Hull. Maybe I'm missing something and money doens't allow, but I'd do Bera>Austin this week and the other 2 next week

    4. FionnMac
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Oh misread you have 2FT. Yeah maybe Bera>Sakho/Austin with one of your FT, and Bego>Fabianski and Tadic>someone for free next week?

  14. Coaly
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Fab reported out for 3 weeks with thigh muscle tear 😮

    1. Lucy.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Literally just dumped adm instead of Fabregas. Great.

      1. THE Wild Rover
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Load of rubbish. Don't worry

        1. Coaly
          11 years, 11 months ago

          You think it's a tactical blag to keep him out of the Spain squad?

          1. THE Wild Rover
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Yes, Mourinho was saying he was injured straight after the match. The match that he had just completed 90 mins in.

            1. Coaly
              11 years, 11 months ago

              Could be an excuse to swap for Hazard

              1. THE Wild Rover
                11 years, 11 months ago

                Done it anyway but nothing to do with injuries

                1. Coaly
                  11 years, 11 months ago

                  I'd like to, .3 short though would have to sell Clyne or Pelle for -4 so think I'll wait it out

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I don't believe you jose!

        1. THE Wild Rover
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Have you actually read it?

          1. Coaly
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Yeah hence 'reported out' in my original comment. I believe he was playing through illness, there could be some truth in that he was playing with a niggle also, could have been aggravated ...

      1. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        11 years, 11 months ago

        as if you didnt go with 'no way jose'

    3. Hurricane
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Even if this is true Would miss just 1 game though

    4. Puyol Pants Up

  17. multiple.scoregasms
    11 years, 11 months ago

    A) Clyne+Bertrand+Barkley>Coleman+Azpi+Chadli -4
    B) Clyne+Bertrand+Barkley>Caulker+Azpi+Walcott -4
    C) Bertrand>Azpi this week Clyne>Caulker and Barkley>Walcott next week for free

    this is where im at atm with transfers
    A) leaves my defense as coleman, azpi, baines, chambers, duff
    midfield of di maria, fab, siggy, chadli, boyd
    B) defense baines, azpi, caulker, chambers, duff
    midfield of di maria, fab, siggy, walcott, duff
    C) same as b but takes an extra week

    1FT and £1.6min the bank. Can anyone help me with a transfer plan for the next couple weeks? I'm thinking replace Begovic & Tadic for GW13 when their respective fixtures turn bad. But do I save this week and use my 2FT, or prepare to take a hit next week and use my FT this week?

      1. FionnMac

  24. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I have decided that I need Costa, more than I need Hazard. Irritating.

    GW 12:

    Begovic
    Chambers, Clyne, Baines
    Sánchez(vc), di Maria, Sigurdsson, Downing
    Agüero(c), Costa, Austin

    Fabianski; Colback, Dummett, N Taylor ... - 4, 0.7 ITB

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      11 years, 11 months ago

      (C)osta gets his fourth yellow and Hazard scores a hatty .

      1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        There is that.

    2. THE Wild Rover
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I'd have sold ADM ahead of Hazard but who knows?

      1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…

        Di Maria is still hot to trot ...

    3. Jay_

      Nice team , Hazard the only player who can harm you
      Clyne -Creswell gw 13 or 14 maybe

        Yes, sadly.

        1. chinmusic

          I will have to take a hit to bring in Costa I think. Rose out. At last.

    5. Costa Nostra

    Please help!

    1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Downing. Not just saying that.

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I still think Downing is the better option 🙂

    3. SW6
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Tough decision. Downing the better player right now but Chadli just keeps delivering, I'm not sure if Downing will.

  26. Lallana_

    Guzan
    Baines Clyne Dummet
    Sigurdsson Di Maria Sanchez Fabregas
    Welbeck Aguero Pelle

    Bench: Gilks, Wisdom, Marney, Moore
    2FT, 0.0ITB

    Fabregas and Costa, one yellow card away from a one-game suspension. I believe Pelle is as well. Any proposed transfers? I can't think of any...

  27. Sideshow Luiz
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Wildcarded so trying to maximise TV atm: got in Sanchez, Baines, Chadli, Costa, Wanyama, Austin. Am I covered?

  28. Moody1000
    11 years, 11 months ago

    What to do with bert forster and pelle?.Thanks in advance.

    1. piquiblanco
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Sell one of Bertrand/Forster depending on the selling price, but preferably the first one. Should be enough for now

    2. Willian't
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I say stick it out. Maybe lose forster or bert, i just think they are a form team, no reason to panic.

  29. Willian't

    Has any site cracked this years crazy price rise/fall formula?
