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.
wisdom to zab make sense if i already have baines and azpi??
yep
agree
Thoughts on Rooney > Giroud (C)?
I know Newcastle looked leaky as well, but Rooney on midfield is a worry - didn't even move up front with RVP off the pitch.
Would also give me the funds to upgrade Siggy to a premium mid if it looks likely that he'll be out.did it yesterday to fund Siggy > Silva
Fair enough. I'm more thinking about it on its own merits, though. Cheers though!
Lost at bottom of last page:
Any ideas what to do with this lot? 2 FT, £0 ITB...
DDG - Elliot
Baines - Naylor - Bruce - Wisdom - Hutton
Siggy - Sanchez - Yaya - Hazard - Fer
Austin - Bony - Rooney
Getting frustrated by Rooney in midfield and also looking to get rid of Baines and Siggy
Any suggestions appreciated 🙂
This is my team
Guzan
Azpili, Zabaleta, Taylor
Hazard, Fabregas, Sanchez, ADM, Silva
Bony, Kane
Hamer, Austin, Duff, Hutton
Over the course of four weeks:
1. Guzan to Adrian
2. Taylor to Alderweireld
3. Silva to Boyd
4. Bony to Aguero (Bony will be off to African's Cup and hopefully Aguero would be fit by then)
Any way to improve my team?
ohh bony go to african cup
A) Zaba (wba) and Lukaku (STO)
B) Hutton (swa) / Coloccini (mun) and Giroud (QPR)
C) Zaba (wba) and Giroud (QPR) (-4)
?
B with Hutton
C
B with Hutton.
Cheers
C
Baines owners...sticking? He has decent fixtures but has terrible form and Mirallas is back.
Just get rid otherwise every week will be a "just give him one more chance" scenario.
He's shockingly bad value currently.
Imagine any other position being filled by a 7.3m player who has got around 7 points in the last 5 game weeksone more chance with Stoke. anything less than 6 pts he's gone for Zaba
Probably just get rid when I WC
Double Baggies defence v City next week should go well.
-2 will be cool
Play Lukaku or Giroud gwk 18?
Sorry I meant Lukaku or Austin
Lukaku
Thats an incredible selection headache... QPR not good away from home so Lukaku
Draft side, other 2 strikers are RVP and Giroud.
Any transfers jump out to you? 2.2 ITB
--------------------De Gea
--------Baines | Zabaleta | Davies
Hazard | Sanchez | Yaya Toure | Eriksen
-----------Kane | Austin | Lukaku
________________________________________
Elliot | Downing | Cissokho | MooreLukaku > Benteke?
Not sure if I could keep the faith with Lukaku if I were you
Yes Lukaku to Giroud
Then do Benteke the following week and keep
Adam Johnson is starting to look like an attractive FPL prospect.
I think it's time to go to bed 🙁Really? Hmm, may draft him in for my draft side.
encore encore
Potential Siggy replacement but I don't even own Downing! 🙄
If he has another good week, I'm picking him up. Last year he went on a great run of games for 5-6 weeks as I recall, and I missed it.
Saving FT this week, then Bony & Kane -> Austin & Benteke ?
Alexis - Hazard - Yaya - Eriksen (Downing)
Bony - Kane - Costa
Looks good
Great plan
Did Arsene say that Sanchez will be rested? Or is it just an assumption based on his performance today.
Assumption. He did look tired though
Its a very risky assumption
he didn't say anything, but think he'll be rested vs. QPR home. 2 tough away games after, and Wenger can't lose more points.
I didn't watch Liverpool v Arsenal but the general feeling I'm getting is that Sanchez was poor, looks tired and needs a rest which will most likely be against QPR this week. If that's the case, the following transfers for a hit?
Sanchez --> Cazorla
&
Sakho --> Giroudkeep sanchez
Don't go by what you read here. Watch the game yourself. All kinds of biases at play here.
Yeah, true. Will watch the replay in a couple of hours. Since I live in Australia the game was live at 3AM which is waaaaayyyyy to early for my liking.
So why was Bony on the bench and Gomis started for the first time this season?
Was it to adapt the team to Gomis?
Regardless of what the transfer window may bring, Bony will be missing for a month to play in the Africa Cup of Nations and Garry Monk, the Swansea manager, picked the Frenchman Bafi Gomis in his place on Saturday with Bony’s absence in mind.
Probably
yes-bony should start next game
i don't fancy gomis-dont think he has 'it'
watch out instead for modou barrow-he'll have time to play
A better bet for gwk 18...
A) Montero
or
B) Adam Johnson
This post is made in sincerity, as it's for my draft side.AJ
does anyone notices any liverpool player? they have decent fixtures ,vs burn,SWA,LEI
Draft game mate, I'm in a league with two Canadian and Irish Liverpool supporters who have monopolized their squad. Ridiculous.
I'm mulling over sterling, he's got great fixtures, being playing up front, his stats look decent and this change in formation appears to be helping. However I'm worried about how he looked to have got moved to left back at the end of the game, is this a sense that he's not cut out for the striker role or even worse is Rodgers losing the plot
I'm also mulling him over. Just can't resist going back again...
Want to get him but afraid he'll get rested the week I do. He's played something like 45 straight EPL games for Pool.
Plenty of those on the bench though
He's definitely going to get a rest, didn't Rodgers confirm it?
does anyone notices any liverpool player? they have decent fixtures ,vs burn,SWA,LEI
United and Arsenal have each a piss easy game coming
Want to cover some potential risks. Giroud looks the best option for Arsenal. United it seems spread across a number of players. Anyone agree with this?
I bought Kane last night but now I'm not so sure :-/Chances of Lukaku being benched vs. Stoke?
He's been very poor.
He scored
for the other team 🙂
TFPL seems to be on lt's last legs
Hacked by North Korea?
It's been poor for a couple of years now, looks like Frank has given it up for time being anyway. Does that mean we'll get x-ray and the other wannabe gangsta's over here? 😉
Sorry for the repost.
A) Siggy -> ADM
B) Save FT
Midfield is currently Siggy, Downing, Hazard, Sanchez, Boyd.
Only other city coverage is Zabaleta but not keen on Silva, he has always been a frustrating FPL player. Thoughts?
I think he will be just as frustrating to own as Silva
What makes you say that?
ADM has been somewhat consistent this eason after his amazing start, whereas Silva had only 2 goals and 2 assists in 10 games prior to his brace.It's in his history
B
B. If fit, Siggy could easily outscore ADM this week.
Hmm yeah, I already have Bony though as Swansea cover.
Any more thoughts?
Milner, Silva and Yaya too much?
what are the chances we'll see David Villa arrive in Manchester next week?3 midfielders from same team too much.
Great shout. Could well happen!
The Villa thing, I mean. Don't do the mid thing.
too much
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/32939/event-history/17/
I think I have 3 options here..
1 - Yun-->O'Shea
2 - Siggy--->Silva (double up MCI mids with Yaya)
3 - Sakho--->Kane or Benteke
Which path to take... I am sorely tempted by 3 with Benteke myself..
I should of gone -4 last week Coleman >>> Zab now I'm stuck with Coleman another week grrhhh
Zab was rested last week, 0 points. Coleman scored 2 i think
Zab 11 Coleman 1
Any news on Mirallas? Will he play on Boxing Day?
Coach said he should not miss any christmas games, but we cant be sure until the next presser.
Thanks mate, just need to know whether to sell or not to get in silva. Also u know if bony will play so if he won't I can get bony?
Giroud even
Sanchez captain really does make sense. Just trust me.
Didn't work too well for me today 🙂
Qpr at home.
Don't end up with hazard or cazorla captain due to advice from people who think west brom park the bus
lol +1
Not when he doesn't start and might make a 1 point cameo
Looks shattered.
My current side is
Foster
Chambers/Naylor/Zaba
Sanchez/Hazard/Downing/Siggy
RVP/Costa/Austin
Subs: Krul, Boyd, Yun, Dummett
I'd like Silva/Yaya but it would mean taking RVP out and taking a 4 point hit. Somebody tell me it definitely isn't worth it?!it definitely isn't worth it
What he said.
2FT's
1.Downing------>Ki
Bartley-------->Debuchy
2.Downing------>Milner
Bartley------->Toure
3.Keep DowningKeep. He's in great form.
3. Dont understand why you'd want to lose Downing.
3, innit.
Keep Downing
Siggy -- ?
Loadsamoneyyou need city coverage. Yaya or Silva .. I'd do Yaya if you can afford it
Guzan
Baines / Azpi / Wisdom
Sanchez / Haz / Yaya / Siggy
Lukaku / Bony / Austin
(Mccarthy / Downing / Yun / Saylor)
2 FT & 0.9m itb
A) Lukaku -> Benteke or Giroud
B) Baines -> Zaba
C) Baines & Lukaku -> Zaba & Giroud/Benteke
D) Baines, Siggy & Lukaku -> Zaba, Silva/ADM & Benteke (-4)
E) any other suggestionI like A and C.
I would probably just take Awho'd you suggest...Giroud or Tekkers?
I don't know, I am trying to decide myself between them.
