QPR’s home hitman hogs the array of impressive numbers on show from the weekend, ably assisted by stellar showings from Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen. Elsewhere in our regular members’ statistical digest, we examine how Man City’s tactical tweaks influenced two of their key midfielders and analyse how a pair of returning United assets are hinting at major hauls as their minutes begin to build.
Save, and based on performance, do C and maybe D next week.
Cheers. I don't really like having to play Dummett (min) this week but the two FTs will be useful I guess.
E
Thanks. Probably is the best move this week.
I reckon 15 players is the most important thing in the Xmas period followed by rolling 2FTs in case of the inevitable emergency
E
Dude with the highest score this week is one point behind me D:
Hazard is my captain for this week.
But, I need my VC to be absolutely nailed so who should it be.
A) RVP
B) Sanchez
C) Kane
D) Baines
Cheers
baines 😉
Baines or Kane
I'm sure I read on here that Kane was a rotation risk but I guess that would be more likely the 28th
actually spurs play against utd on 28th..if kane is rested surely it will make more sense to rest him against lei?
Kane
current team:
heaton
baines, wisdom, hutton
hazard, sanchez, downing, lampard
rvp, giroud, benteke
subs: schmeicel, boyd, mcnair, dummet..got just enough money to do mcnair -> zabaleta for free, and bench wisdom..good call?Good transfer but do you think Lampard will start over the next two?
mistake has been done..lampard may not start every games, but got to keep him now as improving the defense is the priority
No brainer, go ahead 🙂
cheers mate
Yep, no place for non-players in your team at this time of year
Good move
Pick 4 out of these please. For short to medium term. mid Jan
a) Benteke
b) Bony
c) Costa
d) Kane
e) Downing
f) Eriksen
g) Sterling
(max 2 strikers)Sterling, Bony, Costa, Downing
This
h).... 😛
benteke kane sterling eriksen for me ADFGBenteke, Kane, Downing, Eriksen
A) Save FT
B) Siggy -> Silva
C) Siggy -> ADMB
I did B
Already? Geez.
P.S. C'mon Hazard (C)!Price changes yesterday would've made the move impossible so I had to do it early.
Looking forward to the game, a blank will be terrible... I'd probably take a goal though.Fair enough. I could afford a Siggy drop so I held.
Yep, fearing a blank very much. A penalty would be nice!One of the reasons I captained him was because I can see chelsea getting a penalty. Hazard's going to terrorise Bardsley.
Yep, same. Good luck mate
You too 🙂
Lost on last page:
Heaton (Gilks)
Baines/Azpi/Chambers (Moore/Dummett)
Haz/Sanchez/Siggy/Downer (Boyd)
Costa/Bony/Austin
2 FT, 4.0 ITB
Which one of these to bring in MCI cover:
A] Siggy & Baines --> Silva & Zaba and would leave me with 2.2 ITB, can upgrade Moore next week
B] Siggy & Chambers --> Silva & Zaba but would leave me with no money ITB so cannot upgrade Moore or etc.
C] Other
Planning to do it now, no need to wait imo
Thanks folksB looks good.
OR
Costa, Sigurdsson and Moore to Giroud, Silva and Zaba for -4pts?cheers, nice -4 option as well thanks, so Chambers priority to get out over Baines right?
Any idea when is Kosc back?
is expected back on 26dec for next match already but not sure he will play immediately, anyway i also think Chambers time is up
C) I'd want to roll 2FTs through the Xmas period. Chambers time is probably up so he is the priority to move on I'd say. Chambers to Zaba then
thanks mate, yes 2 FT would be great, but B not possible anymore if Siggy drops and /or Silva rises etc. - just have the feeling Siggy's time is up and Bony is enough Swans coverage imo
Repost... bottomed last page...
What to do with this lot... got a huge wk and now in the top 600...
Guzan mcarthy
yun bertrand clyne Hutton wisdom
silva yaya sanchez hazard downing
austin rooney Dzeko Hutton wisdom
0.1 ITB 2FT
A. Dzeko --> Kane/Giroud?
B. dzeko --> cheapie + downing --> Sterling
C. upgrade def somehow?Dzeko to Benteke
thanks innsie...
who to bench upfront... austin or downing?
who to start at the back? hutton (double wid guzan) or wisdom?I'd bench Downing.
Can't see cleanies for either... Probably play Wisdom to hedge your bets? Not sure.
Guzan
Naylor - Baines - Clyne
Alexis - Yaya - Hazard - Downing
Costa - Bony - Austin
Bench: Given, Boyd, Dummett, Yun
2FT, 0.8m in the bank
any thoughts?Dummett/Yun to SUN def
would you sell baines for zaba?
I'd rather own Zaba than Baines but I'm not sure it's worth a transfer at this time when transfers are precious. Baines still has massive potential... I know we've been saying this for a month now though, so it's a tough one 😕
Clyne --> Kolarov..
or Yun to Vergini
rest looks good
Howdy DZ.
Everyone ready for the Hazard show tomorrow morning?I hope it's his show!!
I own Haz but I want him and Costa to blank so as not to take the shine of my Austin (C) 🙂
Oscar to score (Azpi assist) and Chelsea to lose would be ideal for meStill in the process of preparing myself for it 😉
Would love it, as long as he doesn’t surpass my austin(c) 🙂
Its Oscar time 😀
😥
1-0 ivan goal fab assist 👿🙁
Best move here chaps?
A) Yun -> Baines/Zaba (benching Hutton)
B) Carroll -> Giroud (1 week punt before switching to Austin/Tekkers)
C) Downing -> Silva/Sterling (benching Carroll)
D) Save
Hart
Terry, Chambers, Hutton
Sanchez, Hazard, Eriksen, Siggy
Costa, Kane, Carroll
Elliot, Downing, Wisdom, Yun
Bank 4.4m, 1 freebieI like B
B looks good for a week's punt
I think you should Prioritize on removing Siggy
Yep, Siggy goes this week if injured or next week for Silva/Sterling
B. But would keep him and downgrade Carroll to Austin therafter.
Not sure I follow, Shifty?
Giroud. But keep him thereafter, and downgrade Carroll to Austin instead of 1 week punt with Giroud.
But i would have already ditched Carroll to get Giroud, so couldn't dotch Carroll again for Austin
oh stupid me. read wrong. but still, if you get Giroud, you might consider keeping him for awhile. Kane>Austin thereafter perhaps.
But sounds messy....just get A with Zab.
A
A.
One week punts aren't smart at this time of the season...Yep, agree with that. Don't think its worth losing Carroll or Downing this week given they have che/ARS up next?
Nah you can bench one this week and I wouldn't be surprised if they score 1 or 2 against Arsenal.
u could regret doing that 1 week punt. Save FT
Front 7 for Boxing Day:
Silva (wba) -- Bolasie (SOU) -- Hazard (WHU) -- Eriksen (lei)
Rooney (NEW) -- Lukaku (STK) -- Bony (AVL)
Does this look fine?
I know Lukaku is a concern but might remove him next GW for Austin...
Will Bony start the boxing day match for will he again have a Sub Role?looks decent to me
bony should start, he was rested against hullHe was rested because the manager said they are preparing to play without him (ACON)
that's why I was concernedno better game than against Hull to test. But the test is out of the day. Bony starts.
thanks!
This is what I have for next week
Hart
Baines Yun Dummett Naylor Hutton
Sanchez Hazard Downing Siggy
Costa Austin Bony
Thoughts?
We have 10 of the same players so I'd say pretty dang good 😉
But I think the defense is quite lightweight, don't you?
miss 2 players, but gtg
Jakupovic and Boyd
I fear that next GW is going to be one of those weeks where our teams look great on paper but we end up struggling to get 11 out...
yup. Same fear. Hence focus is on going a playable front 8 for now.
True.
Is Kolarov nailed on?Not at all.
Do players get complete rest or make sub appearance?
i m afraid no1 can answer u this qns. U would expect rvp to be on bench for example in case utd fails to win/losing
Okay... Gonna be interesting 😎
It's different with everyone I guess, kinda depends on how their team is doing in the match. Makes captaincy risky though, as a 1 point cameo is likely.
Might be better to cap a defender like Baines or Terry 😀
I'll probably VC Baines since we know he'll start.
I see we are 1 point apart overall... I'm 13th in NZ and you're 12th. Go well but not too well 🙂
Nice going 🙂
yep
Would Rvp be rested against Newcastle?
Don't think so. Falcao is the one who might be.
Hart (Myhill)
Dummett//Clyne//Baines (Wisdom, Hutton)
Sanchez/Eriksen//Downing//Siggy Silva (C)
Bony (C)//Costa (BERAHINO)
Got 1FT and 0.6mn in the bank.
A) Berahino -> Austin
B) Baines -> Zabaleta
C) Baines & Berahino -> Zab & Austin for -4 hit
D) Baines & Berahino -> Clichy &Tekkers for -4 hit
E) Keep FT and do C/D for freeBench check for festive period:
Carroll/Downing, Hutton, DuffDowning/Siggy, Hutton, Saylor
Who do you guys think will be the top scoring mid for GW 18? 😉
Eriksen
ADM
In term's of who's going to score most over the next 5gws what order would you put these 4 City players in. Highest first
A.yaya. b . silva. C.nasri. D.MilnerYou already put em in order imo 😀
B
Are there any Downing/Carroll doublers out there?
What's the plan for this week, bench 1 start 1?
Given their fixtures get hard as soon as the WC opens, I'm tempted to do Downing -> Sterling this week and bench Carroll. And then Carroll -> Austin next week.
Madness?sell one bench one imo. Bench downing. worth to see that westham has 2 home fix on 28th and 1st jan..which make downing a good 1st sub in case of rotation. and downing is less likely to be rested.
I think your one of the very few that have both
No plans to take them out. After Chelsea, fixtures are good for attacking returns.
what would you do to this lot chicos?
hart
zaba baines cresswell
siggy hazard sanchez eriksen
Austin costa carroll
subs myhill downing dummet mooreLose Moore for someone who plays
Moore/Cresswell out probably.
thinking of dumping both for a hit....who would you get?
Chelsea + Sunderland defenders if possible
Moore out
for?
Sunderland Defender
cresswell to naylor
If only I went cheaper then RvP. Siggy to ADM this week would of been fantastic
RMT PLS
Hart (Myhill)
Dummett//Clyne//Baines (Wisdom, Hutton)
Sanchez/Eriksen//Downing//Siggy Silva (C)
Bony (C)//Costa (BERAHINO)
Got 1FT and 0.6mn in the bank.
A) Berahino -> Austin
B) Baines -> Zabaleta
C) Baines & Berahino -> Zab & Austin for -4 hit
D) Baines & Berahino -> Clichy &Tekkers for -4 hit
E) Keep FT and do C/D for freeDo (A) next week
B looks like a good move!
A
Trippier --> Zabaleta for Free?
I meant
Rangel, Caulker, or Tripper --> Zabaleta seems like a good move this GW?Trippier has the worst fixtures if my memory is right 🙂
Yeah..thanks! 🙂
For sure
Is Zaba sure to play every game?
He was there best player last GW..so why not...
I might do something similar too then..
their 😉
Yes :shy:
Think I'm done with Roonster. How about Fab/Roon -> Yaya/Giroud for free? Also thinking about Siggy -> Downing.. have 2 FT.
Fab --> Silva and Siggy --> Cazorla
Thanks, definitely got me thinking. I feel like Yaya/Silva is a toss up. Cazorla is an option, not sure I want two ARS mids.. already have Sanchez.
Foster
Clyne Zaba Naylor Hutton Moore
Sanchez Haz Fab Siggy Marney
Costa Roon Austin
good suggestions, cheers.....
so cresswell and moore > Naylor and o'shea?na man don't throw away your points. You have hutton who's very good for the following three. Let moore rot at the end of the bench
don't have hutton mate
hazard hatty today anyone
reported!
100%
Not me 😉
😳
stoke are terrible defensively and haz needs to deliver in a away game
Thanks for the heads up.
