While Gameweek 15 is shaping up to be one to forget for many Fantasy managers, our analysis of the weekend’s statistics for members offers some insight to distract us, notably the growing influence of Yannick Bolasie and West Ham’s efforts to maximise the formidable weapon that is Andy Carroll.
-
If I make a move tonight I can do:
Fab and Kun ---> Yaya and Costa, for free.
Worth rushing it through now?-
Poor transfers for me. I'd rather keep Fab and would not be looking at Costa at the moment.
-
Thanks, might wait and see how Rooney does tomorrow.
Or head down the Benteke/Lukaku route.-
That sounds much better to me.
-
-
-
Only if you can't take the price drop of Fab or the drop ruins your plan.
-
His drop tonight would ruin it.
I have Hazard, but going into a gameweek without Kun or (C)osta is not a pleasant thought. Especially with chelsea having Hull at home.
-
-
not with UCL imo
-
This.
-
Yaya is suspended for midweek.
-
Yaya suspended and Costa won't play.
-
-
-
So, it is predicted by both quite reliable sites that Fab will drop tonight.
But .. different opinions on the rise of Hazard and Siggy.
10 minutes to go and we will know who read the mind of FPL tower better tonight.-
Who is to say they are not monitoring those sites and throwing in a few random moves to keep them out
Probably both rise and no fab drop in that case-
I'm thinking about the monitoring and pushing for the rise too.
I think Fab will drop too, imo.
-
-
-
Good morning folks..
Guzan, Gilks
Cahill, Chambers, Wisdom, Clyne, Naylor
Sanchez, Hazard, Siggy, Downing, Marney
Austin, Aguero, Giroud .
What should I be planning on here?
4.3m in account. 2 ft
Chambers - Zabaleta/ Baines
Aguero- Costa/Rooney ?
Thinking Yaya may not be worth it especially if Aguero just misses a month.-
I'd have Zaba and Costa. Though Rooney is a fair shout and a bit of a diff.
-
-
Evening fellas, I'm stuck. Home player or attacking player?
Play Naylor or Kane next week?-
Naylor for mine. Kane was overkill
-
I think attacking player is the go, ILF
-
Recently I've been going for homers and been getting really frustrated and surprised at how rarely it seems to make a difference. But that's just my perception, I'm sure it does in fact make a difference. I'd go attack.
-
Kane
-
Kane.
-
Tricky. Swans have kept clean sheets in half their home games, but Spurs have only failed to score in one away game. Possibly Naylor, much as that pains me as a Kane owner.
-
Kane, choke-slam from hell
-
😀 ?
-
WWE wrestler 😉
I like Kane
-
-
-
Thanks for your thoughts and responses.
-
-
I currently have 6 players either suspended or injured. Considering the dire circumstances what does everyone think of these transfers for a -8 hit? I'm doing quite well in my leagues so 8 isn't a huge deal.
Chambers, Albrighton, Aguero > Cresswell, Jedinak, Costa.
Foster
Chambers - Hutton - Clyne
Fabregas - Hazard - Sigurdsson - Sanchez
Aguero - Bony - Austin
Krul - Duff - Taylor - Albrighton-
I actually like those a lot and well worth the -8 imo Atwood.
-
Thanks, as long as Costa comes through midweek unscathed I'm ok so I think I'll do them tonight too.
-
-
-
Fill in the gap:
I will keep Aguero if he is only going to miss ___ Gameweeks.-

Apologies for not putting the 's' in brackets! 🙂

He won't play all matches anyway. -
1
-
I think he's played his last game in 2014.
-
Interesting, thanks guys. I'm waiting for official word of the scan results before deciding what to do. I'm reluctant to shift him unless he's out for a while having bought him for 12.2.
-
-
Bony or Lukakkuuu??
-
Bony imo
-
Bony
-
Yeah Bony
-
i've got siggy, which makes me rather hesitant to get in Bony.
-
I have the both. Lukaku's a great option too though if you'd rather.
-
They connected & played off each other quite a bit these last two games, unlucky for both Shelvey & Montero to kill off the points
-
-
-
Lukaku. QPR at home has double figures written all over it.
and decentish fixtures to follow-
Yeah, was thinkin the same, concerned bout his playin time tho..
-
Why? He's played every game this season. There's no reason to bench him with a full week either side of that game
-
-
-
Have Bony, looking at Lukaku but memories of previous spells of ownership do put a doubt in my mind.
-
-
I cannot come away with a replacement for Kun that is not Sakho based on his value and ppg. He has a goal or assist in every game he has played 45 minutes or more, except one, and he is averaging 7 points per game in these games combined. At 5.7M, he allows more options to upgrade to Yaya and a defender. I think I am going to do:
Kun > Sakho - GW16
Boyd > Yaya - GW16
Duff > improved defender (Man City, Cresswell) -- GW17-
Worried about rotation with Valencia and Carroll?
-
Good point. Carroll did it all today, and that is a factor to consider. thx
-
-
well put
-
they could play bth carroll and sakho and bench valencia
or just play all 3 + downing
and 2 Def Mids.
-
-
benched clichy for his 15 pointer then played him got a 2 pointer, finally this week took him out for a hit (azpi) and he delivers 8 points.
now i've got a problem in krul elliot chambers austin and aguero, wildcarddd-
Not worth it, Jan WC in only a couple of GWs
-
4 more GWs to be fair. I'm holding mine though.
-
-
-
Kun and chadli need to go. Who for?
A. Costa and nasri
B. Yaya and lukaku-
B
-
Why lukaku over rooney, costa, tekkers...?
-
Can't afford the others with yaya. Already have tekkers
-
-
B
-
-
Best looking move here fellas?
A) Krul -> Foster/Pantillimon
B) Krul & Aguero -> Hart & Rooney/Lukaku (4 points)
C) Chambers & Aguero -> Baines & Rooney/Lukaku (4 points)
D) Krul, Chambers & Aguero -> Hart, Baines & Lukaku (8 points)
Im quite tempted with a hit, but since I can still get a reasonable 11 out with no hits, perhaps A) is the sensible call?
Elliot
Terry, Wisdom, Hutton
Sanchez, Hazard, Eriksen, Siggy, Downing
Costa, Kane
Krul, Yun, Chambers, Aguero
Bank 0.6m, 1 freebie-
Replied on other page but not sure if you saw. b for me
-
Cheers - just seen. I think I'm between A and B at the moment - the cheap keepers (Foster, Pants etc) have decent fixtures until the Jan WC so don't mind going with them too much. Plus Kane + 4 vs Rooney this week is probably edged by Kane imo. B decent also though
-
You might get away with A with Kane vs Swansea. Who knows though
-
-
-
B, Rooney. Effectively only a 2 point hit.
-
Cheers - still fancy Rooney with those fixtures and a returning Falcao?
Also, would you bench Kane this week?-
Yes and yes I think.
-
Cheers. In isolation its a 4 point hit right, given I can get 11 out?
Kane + 4 points would surely be favourite against any striker this week?
-
-
-
-
-
does Konchesky out give Moore an extended stay of execution at all?
-
No. Konchesky is a fullback and Moore is a CB. However, Morgan is on 4 yellows so when he gets his fifth it should buy Moore another game in the near future.
-
I thought Moore was the one on 4 yellows
-
he does have 4
-
Right you are. Sorry Sinik! Moore sucks. Get rid of him 😀 He was also directly responsible for not marking Clark on the first goal they conceded.
-
-
cheers Walshy, don't know squat about Leicester..think I may just sell Moore this week, have 2 FT..Kun and Aguero out, bench Fabs, Chambers and Austin
-
-
-
Anyone who watched the Man City v Everton game know what the deal with Barkley was? 30 odd minutes and a yellow for 0 points isn't exactly inspiring. Worth persisting or is he looking at further gametime loss?
-
City could have been exceptional. I'd give him another chance.
-
I don't see him as a good FPL prospect.
-
-
He was poor. However, if anything I'd expect Martinez to use a plum home fixture to get him into the groove more than anything
-
I seem to remember the commentator saying Everton came into the game after Barkley came on. Dunno if that helps though.
-
Hmm. Divided opinions! Naturally I'll see how the QPR game goes but if no return or reduced minutes.. think it has to be shipping time.
-
-
-
I'd just like to indulge in some wishful thinking, if i may.
Rooney a brace and 3 Baps tonight, with a penalty save from Forster to deny RVP.
That, there, will make me a happy lad.
Thanks FPL Gods-
1-1 draw with goals from Fellaini and Long and no assists please
-
3-1 United with Fellaini hattie unassisted I mean 😉
-
Latest pictures of Sinik this Christmas http://www.wupr.org/2013/01/26/divestmentgate-ctd/scrooge-2/ 😉 . I need a 0 - 0 draw to stay in the cup you heartless git 😉
-
honestly as long as I stay in the top 100k then I'm cool with whatever..currently 76k with no players left
-
How many points are you clear of the top 100 k ?
-
only 9...
-
I think you might be in trouble . I'd say the majority of people have one to play + autosubs .
-
honestly considering I was rank 300k before GW14, I'm totally relaxing 😉 baby steps!
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
I need clyne sent off and pelle to be injured in the warm up
-
This apart from the penalty is saved by Davis after Forster is sent off giving away the penalty 🙂
-
-
What do you guys think?
A) Aguero, Downing --> Bony, Yaya
B) Aguero --> Rooney
C) Aguero --> Bony
D) Aguero, Chambers --> Rooney or Bony + ???
Current team:
Guzan, McCarthy
Baines Azpi Chambers Wisdom Moore
Sanchez Hazard Siggy Downing Boyd
Aguero Costa Austin
Thanks!-
A or C, a if you aren't gaving to take a hit.
-
Oh I have 2 FT.
-
-
Keep Downing for sure, I like D though.
Both the priorities on your side, & I'd wait until at least the end of United's match to make a decision.
For now, Bony would be my choice. Perhaps Chambers --> Cresswell might tickle your fancy
-
-
Aguero and Siggy to YaYa and bony for -4?
-
Do siggy to yaya next week for free
-
-
Last year change to adapt to was all about how the BAPs applied to defenders. We all had to switch from full backs to centre backs to adapt.
This year it's the passing Mfs. Fab and downing great examples of players who seem to be able to create BAPs out of a single assist in a high scoring game meaning they are scoring closer to 4 pts per assist.-
Agreed and the reason I'm keeping Fab. No explosions, but consistent scores.
-
So much this. Spot on, Zan.
-
Good insight
-
Would be cool to know the actual numbers on this, but on the face of it, it certainly looks like you're right.
-
I have neither btw but downing 2 BAPs just brought it home
-
Great great point, Downing's value is incredible. I should have got him for the immediate AdM replacement 2 weeks ago. No real "explosiveness" but just so reliable & even more so now with a plethora of in-form strikers ahead of him.
-
-
Costa likely to rise tonight?
-
I'm wondering the same thing myself
-
Nah, but should in the next few days when the Kun news is confirmed. Expect his transfers in will go bonkers!
-
-
Does anyone know how serious the injuries to Dzeko and Jovetic are or if we're likely to find out their availability anytime soon?
-
We'll doze ko played 30 minutes on sun, so he's back already.
Jovetic only had a knock. Should be back for the coming week also, and poss champ lge-
Dzeko
-
Cheers. Potentially fit then. I'll wait before making any transfers.
-
-
-
-
Right, I'm thinking Aguero and Downing to Dzeko and Yaya (not til Saturday, though). My logic is that once Austin's back next week I'll still want Boyd in my squad and he rotates well with Austin anyway... it's essentially a question of Downing or Dzeko in this respect.
Right move?
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/428573/event-history/15/-
Taking out Downing right now is mental to me.
-
Completely mental. He's one player I don't have that I wish I did.
-
This. The man is on fire. I just brought him in for Chadli 🙂
-
Yup, even more so with Sakho, Caroll, & Valencia all fit & firing
-
-
-
Augers replacement... Bony vardy ______
Cheers lads-
Benteke
-
Cheers reedy. Not having costa frightens the life out of me though
-
I think I'm just used to it 🙂
-
-
-
-
Hazard and Siggy ... RISE
-
yay
-
One more day for Fab, I guess.
-
-
The article ^ Nasri. hmmm. viable alternative to Yaya? I had him late last season and he did really well.
Looking at
Aguero, Jedinak -> Lukaku, Nasri (-4)-
Dzeko ?
-
Not going near Dzeko or Jovetic.
-
I would worry about Yaya . I think Pelle does not have enough confidence in Dzeko and Jovetic to play either of them upfront on their own and Silva will come back . Where does that leave Yaya ?
-
-
-
Still not a fan of Nasri. Doesn't look like bagging points at the moment.
-
Maybe get in before the upturn? It's what this game is all about 😉
-
Could pay off, RCA, certainly.
-
-
-
Yes RCA, I posted on getting nasri last page and just heard disagreement and crickets (literally)
-
🙂 nice, I'll have a look..
-
-
-
Risers: Sigurdsson Hazard
Fallers: Moses E Valenica McGeady-
Fast and furious
-
Great job FFFix!...& of course you AR 😉
-
-
Justice, seen to be done? 😉
-
haha cheers ILF 🙂
-
-
-
Risers: Hazard, Siggy
Fallers: Valencia, McGeady, Moses -
when is Kompany due back?
-
Could be midweek. But he is on 4 yellows.
-
damnit haha..so many options on the tightrope
-
It's that time of year...but I know. Making it very difficult right now.
-
I'm counting my blessings that I can field 11 without a hit, though I won't have aspirations for a very high score...but not taking a hit should be like 4 extra points in my balance given the number of hits that will go out this week
-
-
-
-
-
Rise: Hazard, Siggy
Fall: Moses, Valencia, McGeady -
Yes....fabregas didn't drop!
-
Siggy rose......bonus.
-
One more day to get updates and monitor Saint vs United.
😎-
Exactly.....see what Rooney plays like and hear on ADM.
-
-
-
I read some post here yesterday that City have decided not to give any updates on the Aguero injury right away.
Anyone know if this is true and if so, why?
(surely if they know something they should share it?)-
don't want to create panic ahead of the Roma game? keep the fans behind the team?
-
Good point. Cheers.
-
also that wasn't meant to come off as curt or anything, I'm legitimately guessing 🙂
-
-
-
Is he going to do a Costa and score a hattrick after everyone has sold thinking he is out?
-
I kept Costa all through until his suspension 😉
But no official news means people/media making up random timeframes of his injury. Bad for us.
-
-
-
Which two strikers of the following four would you want to own and why?
Bony, Lukaku, Dzeko, or Benteke.-
Bony+benteke
-
Bony because of Swansea's attacking style of play and his goal involvement to date.
Benteke because of what he's done in previous seasons, and Villa's accommodating fixtures. -
Bony Dzeko and the benteke from gw19. Just a case of hope gut dzeko is.
-
Benteke (nailed over Xmas with pens) and either Dzeko (if he showed the tiniest bit of form) or Bony (again pens)
-
"nailed over Xmas with pens"
curious why you added this? is this not the case normally?-
I meant he has pens and he's nailed over Xmas, a period when others will be getting rested.
-
cool, just checking 😉
-
-
-
I don't know why, but I just don't fancy Bony right now.
-
I brought him in for a hit for Rooney after being stupid and grabbing Rooney too early last week and he's thanked me 12 points in that time
-
Yeah but you're going to miss out on Rooney's 12 tomorrow afternoon 😀
-
6, one assist and one bap 😆
-
-
-
-
-
Bony + Benteke
Lukaku is Lukaku and Everton aren't firing, plus it's hard to trust any attackers that share pitch time with that clown Mirallas
Dzeko isn't necessarily nailed with Jovetic there and he's only JUST back from injury-
Yeah I think I am being a bit mad for considering Lukaku right now.
-
This
-
-
Dzeko - fixtures and captain option gw17 and 19.
Benteke - fixtures and differential. -
Hm. Thanks for the replies all. Very difficult - agonizing over this.
-
Bony and Lukaku, good fixtures and better teams than Benteke. I may consider Dzeko if he starts and shows some form against Roma.
-
Benteke playing for Villa always is troubling but he is so selfish and is the focal point of everything they do it doesn't bother me as much.
-
-
Bony definitely
Maybe hope dzeko steps up as he has the most upside-
Bony certainly seems the safe option of this quartet.
-
-
Bony ( have) and Dzeko , if he is going to start regularly.
Benteke is the better finisher but Dzeko will get 3 x the chances
-
