In light of Sergio Aguero’s knee injury, we delve into the data to highlight a number of forwards’ weekend displays. Wilfried Bony and Robin van Persie’s fine form arrives under the spotlight, whilst we also assess Diego Costa’s recent toils for Chelsea. The Gunners’ weekend scorers and Tottenham’s in-form Dane are also amongst this evening’s topics as Fantasy managers look to spend that left over budget from the Aguero fall-out.
hazard rested u kidding me?
Why would that be so surprising?
only there best player and everything plus he had rested him in champ league game
Azpi is arguably their best defender (atleast imo), and he got rested...
Sure, maybe he already have had his game out... but it wouldnt surprise me at all if he got rested another game.not when city only three pts behind he can't risk it
Could have been rested but with City just 3 points behind and tough games coming up, I don't see Hazard getting a rest except for the cup game
Jose did say some players will play 5 games and I'm guessing one of them will be Hazardyes agreed costa however could be will be rested I feel fir one game
Probably, Remy and Drogba both good replacements
hazard already sent for holiday prior to the champions league against lisbon..don't think he will be rested soon
guzan chambers terry baines clyne sig haz sanchez erriksen costa sakho any changes to make
cash?
0.8mil
sig out for someone
my thoughts were sakho to Austin clyne to demi or sig to downing
Rvp or bony?
rvp is a better option, bony better value
Bony, I feel they will give about the same returns and Bony is much cheaper
Even with a few away games on the horizon and Acon looming?
The away games are against teams which like to concede though and the cash saved could get you more points overall.
Would go with RVP if you dont need the cash somewhere else.
Van Persie.
rvp
fpl cup starting this week 🙂
do we get to view our opponent yet?This week is the qualifying round
Need to qualify first
Whats the criteria?
top 2 mil
See below
Starts in GW18?
Yep week 17 qualifying
The top 2,097,152 scorers in Gameweek 17 will enter the first round. If there are more than 2,097,152 qualifiers then there will be a random draw amongst the lowest scorers to see who qualifies.
what do they mean top 2,097,152 scorers? GW rank or OR? rookie fpl year. forgive my ignoramus self
GW rank
GW.
The highest 2m+ scorers in week 17
Cool! Cheers! Knowing my luck, my GW rank will be 2,097,153 😆
I think it starts in GW18?
Oh, see aboves.
Guesses on the result of today's match? Got both Jagielka and Lukaku so hoping for a 2-0, 3-0 victory with Lukaku scoring goals, but can see QPR managing to score at least 1 goal.
1-1 Baines ands Yun
1-1 Mirallas and Yun to score 😛
17 - 14 late bears field goal to win it
Austin wont be playing so better chances for a cleanie
Nice, forgot about this. Hoping that QPR will have a harder time scoring without Austin!
2 - 0 Baines and Lukaku Goal, Mirallas assist
4:0 - if Everton manages to score fast.
time to ditch costa for rvp
best forward line till january wild card will be rvp bony and ?????????I went with Lukaku as my third striker. Benteke, Austin and Sakho are other options.
Would go Austin / Sakho, cheaper than lukaku and benteke and more effective IMO
With the stats Costa is putting up, it would be very foolish to sell him for rvp imo.
Hey Everyone!
Hoping I could get a quick RMT with some suggestions? 1 FT and 0.1 ITB
--------------------- Fabianski-------------------
Baines / Azpi / Chambers / Duff / Hutton
Sanchez / Yaya / Hazard / Downing / Boyd
--------- Costa / Austin / Bony ---------------
Im thinking of saving a FT or maybe getting chambers out for somebody?Save nice team
kick chambers take sunderland defender
o'shea
Save
Save
Duff the only real issue
Most nailed defender for city over xmas??
demi
Mangala starting to look like a cb now but young and new to epl so you would think he'll get a breather at some point.
Man that boy is quick and powerful though. Add in a decent reader of the game and all he needs is to work on his positioning and partnerships in the city system. Decent goal threat in the past also so could be one to watch for us
Pellegrini has said Milner might be handed a deep-lying striker role. Would be a great bargain wouldn't it?
Source? This would be awesome!
Withdrawn on 58 mins replaced with Pozo I can see it now
Source?
Read it on twitter, source was this site 🙂
Daily Mail, check scout tweets.. Article says Milner-Nasri-Silva can be used as deep-lying striker.
I didn't even bother to read it
Anyone believing this Milner hype?
there was something posted on it yesterday
and above
Not really, Silva would make more sense
He is afraid of shooting tho
Good week, 69 points with Baines still to play.
Foster
Baines/Wisdom/Naylor
Sanchez/Siggy/Hazard/Tadic
Costa/Bony/Austin
Bench: Krul/Yun/Marney/Chambers
1 FT 4.8 ITB
Tadic -> Yaya/Eriksen for my FT? Think I'll wait until next week to get a Chelsea defender.
Guzan,
Baines, Clyne, Dummett
Hazard, Sanchez, YAYA, Downing
Costa, Bony, Austin,
Krul* Wisdom, Boyd, Moore - 1FT 1.0 ITB
- TEMPTED by YAYA and Moore --> Nasri and Kompany/Clichy
City great fixtures and Nasri form and should play up top?Also Eriksen at 8.1 and v Burnley and Leicester next... Helloooo
Have the same problem. Tempted by Cazorla, Milner and Eriksen, have no idea though how should I get them.
Not sure I'd be selling yaya now. Is that just a week you gave him?
Keep til he goes on his hols.Selling Yaya now is weird for me, especially to get in Nasri. Doesnt make sense.
On the other side Hazard is a must have and Downing a really good value. Maybe it's time to say goodbye to Alexis (Giroud competition), but I'm too afraid of it.
Im thinking the same.... 11.0 for central striker sanchez is fine but 11.0 for wide man occasional assist and occasional goal sanchez is questionable if can get Eriksen or Nasri for 2-3 mil less!.....
Purely based on the rumours Nasri may play further forward plus the fact he is 2.5 cheaper and could upgrade the non playing Moore!!
Who will score more u think over next few?
Yaya and Moore (0)
or
Nasri and Clichy/Kompany/Azpi for example (assuming I pick the one that plays)Oh well, combined, without Yaya lucky (c) - second option of course.
Maybe consider Cazorla+Clichy/Azpi.
here s my team
clichy - chambers - hutton ( bartley - moore)
haz - sanchez - downing - eriksen (boyd)
costa - bony - rooney
2.7 mil in bank! how would you invest?
i dont want ivan/bainesGood side, I'd save the FT.
Current team:
Guzan, Elliott
Baines, Ivan, Chambers, Hutton, Moore
YYT, Hazard, Sanchez, Siggy, Downing
Bony, Sakho, Austin
Which option:
(a) Sell Guzan, buy Hart
(b) Sell Moore, Buy Zabaleta
I brought Guzan 2 weeks ago for at least 1 cs. Man U could really smash Villa. Hart seems the one to go for in City defence & cs,
Bringing in Zabaleta strengthens my defence by getting rid of Moore & he will play most games.
Opinions appreciated & thanks in advance.your already too defence heavy, maybe Sakho > Giroud
What is a deep lying forward? Does that mean nasri/Navas will be further forward of all the players
false 9 equivlalent
jovetic behind kun is one of the example of deep lying forward..silva will be the most likely midfielder to play in that position
sakho to Austin clyne to demi or sig to downing ?
none of the above
What's this Hazard rested business about?
some dude mentioned it on here thought as fab had his rest haz next load of shite
I hope your not refering to my comment above, since the only thing I said was that I wouldnt be surprised... no more, no less...
Only Mou knows, so its kinda strange to label it as "load of shite"...
BS
Daydreaming from some, needless panicking from others.
very true load of crap
Cheers.
Lampard or Milner??
if rumours are true then Milner if not then neither
Ucl draw in around 2 hours approximately?
really? cool!
Can't wait!
Having template troubles. Currently on:
Fabi
Terry Azpi Baines
Yaya Hazard Sanchez Downing
Austin Bony(c) Sakho
Bench: Guzan (MUN), Siggy (away), Dummett (derby), Hutton (suspended)thats a good team
Cheers. You'd make no changes? I think I'll change the captaincy minimum 6 times before deadline.
One question. If I make 3 changes and get -8. Will that affect my points score in gw 17 or it will be deducted before the start of gw 17 and the points that I will score in gw 17 will remain as it is to get the entry in cup tournament.
I think that hits taken going into GW17 affect your qualifying score
Currently a bit worried as I have Zabaleta and Azpi. Veiws on these two's game time over the next few game week? Should I ship?
They've had their rests now I think, I wouldn't worry.
Best City midfielder/attacker to own? Not convinced by Milner at all.
silva, but nasri could be a good shout
Agreed nasri looks good. I don't think yaya is worthy of bring over 2m more than him
Yayaya
pozo
joke
Nasri and Toure.
Is it safe to come out now?
Has the "LOL @ Dzeko owners" brigade left?
lol @ dzeko owners
*goes back into shell*
unlucky mate
Yeah really frustrating. Emotional rollercoaster.
Plus my chasing rivals mostly got RVP in 😕
For those asking about Milner I've posted a source above
ty for the source, seems kinda uncertain tho
" It can be Silva, it can be Nasri, it can be Milner,’ said Pellegrini."
Could be a good option tho, IF Milner is the one..yaya not mentioned though 🙁
milner as a striker,?
Would of thought Silva would play the flase 9 as he's done it for Spain quite a few times.... With good results.
yaya st
Agreed. I can't see the point in Milner doing it. I think they'll give Pozo a chance myself. I haven't seen the game though. How did he look?
Ah I see Pelli has actually come out and said it. Thought it was just a rumour at first.
LOL @ Dzeko owners
lol @ reply failers 😉
I meant to post it like that
LOL @ misinterpreters
😡
ok need a top defender.
Ruling out all chelsea due to rotation. Is anyone safe?
Ruling out city backs (zaba / clichy / sagna / kola) due to rotation.
City centre-backs seem best way forward til wildcard. Assume both Demi and Manga safe. Leaning towards Manga. Sound sensible?no demi
mangala card magnet .1 more and 4YCCahill looks the most likely to play them all, as Maureen has said he is resting him in the cup
I think zabaleta is the most nailed fb for city. Get attacking points and baps too
zabaleta only two bonus points so far this year. clichy has thirteen
kompany five, mangala five
buzzing!
upgrading Jedinak next GW to;
A. Nasri
B. Milner
for their good run of fixtures. who's your pick??a
A easily. Milner is a noob
thanks guys
