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.
-
Silva and O'Shea in for Mirallas and Azpi for free? (0.3 ITB)
-
I prefer the latter.
-
-
Didn't Yaya score twice at the Hawthorns a season or 2 ago?
-
Is it worth taking a 4 point hit to swap Mata (who may not start) for Sterling (now playing striker)?
-
Absolutely not for me mate
-
Not sure what to do with Mata then, would you start Barkley over him?
-
What the rest of your team?
-
My midfield is: Mata, Barkley, Siggy, Fabregas, Nasri
Strikers: Kane, Lukaku, Costa-
Try to get sig out pending injury news perhaps?
-
Yea tempting, I just can't tell what is going to happen with Mata. He was perfect whilst Di Maria was out but now...
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
One freebie left, use FT to Eriksen or save?
Guzan,
Azpi, Baines, Naylor
Sanchez, Siggy, Hazard (C), Yaya
Kane, Costa, Austin
----------------------------------------------
McCarthy, Downing, Wisdom, Duff
Thanks!-
Strong bench... I would probably make that trade although eriksen has trolled me in the past
-
from siggy?
I would be tempted, but probably wouldn't.-
Yeah it'd be Siggy, I'm worried with no United coverage and Arsenal look good too. Hold it out?
I've a strong lead in my ML
-
-
I have very similar team and just had the same thoughts.
conclusion I also have Kane and that is enough Spurs risk for me...so i did Wisdom --> Zaba to get some additional Man City exposure when their next four games look great.
-
-
Morining gents
Went To see Ronaldo and Real Madrid in the final of the Mundialito, couldn't see saturday's games:
I want to know if Rooney was playing very deep again.
and
Nasri worth keeping or not ?-
Very Deep
-
-
Anyone here won a monthly prize. I'm 13pts of the lead this month.
-
on what?
-
FPL.
-
I have won loads of monthly's in the works league
-
Ok. Well done
-
-
-
-
-
Liverpool have to be happy with that result ay? Sterling may come into my team...
-
Happy drawing a game we dominated?
-
Football is more than that bro, surely we know that!
What about Drawing a game where you are a man down and goal down in the 96th minute?
-
-
-
I've 2 FT's, though my 11 for next wk looks OK, any advice. Guzan, Azpil (H) Baines (H) Chambers (H), Silva (A) Downing(A) Hazard (H) Sanchez (H), Costa (H) Kane (A) Bony (H).....Maybe Chambers > Zabeletta perhaps
-
1003 points 1042 rank
how many points ahead are you guys around 500th?-
Click my link, im around there
-
10 clicks on the FPL site will give you that answer. 😉
-
ahh ok
50 behind top 50
27 behind top 200
17 behind top 400
they all very catchable
-
-
-
Will bony and toure be available on 10th jan?
-
Yeah when are they expected to leave.
-
-
Yaya & Barkley or ADM & Sterling?
-
Now what do you think ?
-
I'm thinking ADM & Sterling. Is Balotelli ready for the next game?
-
Balotelli is never ready
-
-
-
wouldnt get any Lpool player yet
-
really?
-
Sterling for sure
-
If I buy Sterling and ADM for Yaya and Barkley I would have this team
Foster
Baines Azpi Clichy (Dummet Bartley)
ADM Sterling Sigg Hazard Eriksen
Costa Giroud (Kane)
Next round my move would be:
Giroud & Sigg -> Austin & Silva
With the fixtures in mind, would this be an alright move?
-
-
in times of rotation you need a strong and AVAILABLE bench
My worry at the moment is Bartley
what other DEF are available between 4.1 to 3.9 ?-
Yun?
-
duff and yun when they are not crocked. wisel....whatever the Leicster defender if he is still getting a game.
-
Same problem...
Slim pickings!
Crocked Duff, Saylor or Blackett.
I'm just keeping.
-
-
Watched pantimilion yesterday. To be honest i felt he was playing a little bit deep to be worthy of consideration
-
Who's the best Man City midfielder for next few gws
and who's likely to play all Xmas fixtures?
Milner
Yaya
Silva
Nasri-
Yaya, he's on pens
-
Best Yaya
Nailed on Yaya
Silva close second. -
Yaya most likely but it is so hard to tell, I have Nasri in my team as he is cheap and always a threat.
-
Thanks gents
-
Yaya, but don't forget he heads off to the African Nations in Jan
-
-
Pick one:
A. Clichy to Zaba
B. Mirallas to Cazorla
C. Mirallas to Eriksen
?-
Clichy likely to play this GW so B looks a good move
-
C
-
Mirallas might be back for Box Day? Otherwise B.
-
-
Aby DEF between 4.2 to 3.9
-
Saylor but poor fixtures in next few or Yun but plays for qpr find another .1 for Hutton 4.3
-
Stretch a 0.1 for Hutton.
-
-
Is Zabaleta the best man city defender option?
-
Not sure, too much rotation going on for me
-
Except Hart of course.
-
If Hart scores I'll bring him in. Until then I'll go with Frank Zaba!
-
-
Hart
-
-
Anyone know why Bony was dropped this weekend? Do I need to think about replacing him with someone else?
-
Rest
-
He wasn't dropped he was rested. Happens a lot this time of year. No need to sell, he will start next gw
-
Rested as most players will at some point this Xmas.
-
Rest before hattrick
-
probably in need of a rest. i'd imagine that he will start every game til his departure for the african cup
-
when do players leave? There's a fixture on the 10th, ACON starts 17th.
-
i have no idea. ain't looked into it. i'm sure many here wud know
-
-
-
monk wanted to see how his team does when bony goes african nations
-
against hull .....
-
this means what now?
-
-
-
More giving Gomis a run out than rested I think
-
-
Hey lads, would appreciate any thoughts on my team. Thanks!
Forster
Baines, Naylor, Dawson*
Haz, Cesc, Sanchez, Yaya, Siggy
Rooney, Kane
Subs: Mccarthy*, Sakho, Moore*, Yun*
2 FTs, 0.6 in the bank-
Defence is looking a bit dodgy!
Maybe drop Dawson. And make plans for dropping Baines?
Siggy could go too.
There's lots you could do, but I'm not sure what to prioritise! -
You could punt on Dawson to Toure to get another Defender.
-
Do baines to Zabaleta and Moore to a Sunderland Defender
-
-
Dr. Rog: Watched pantimilion yesterday. To be honest i felt he was playing a little bit deep to be worthy of consideration
😀
What can I say... I love humour like that... maybe why I love Impractical Jokers on Comedy Central 😀-
I hope he does the opposite and when he sees Neuer thinks of the OOP potential.
-
-
50 behind top 50
27 behind top 200
17 behind top 400
they all very catchable-
reply fail
-
No standard Suarez(c) this season will make a big jump possible
-
How many players to have in Chelsea game? I'm 30 behind you with Apzi Haz Costa ranked 4.5k
-
2 seasons ago I went from about 1.5 millionth to ending in 54th.... within about 10 GWs...
Far too early yet 🙂-
pull the other one
-
-
-
Need to sure up my bench...
Duff and Bartley to Yoshida and Saylor? -
With my 2FT it is very tempting to do:
Sakho>Giroud
Costa>Benteke
Frees up a Chelsea spot nicely. I'm sure Giroud and Benteke will start every game over Xmas. Costa can be a risk of getting rested.-
Look at Tekkers fixtures too.....
Delicious!! Keeping here!!
-
-
Hart
Baines Ivan Chambers
Haz Sanchez Siggy Downing
Costa Lukaku Austin
Elliot / Ameobi Wisdom Duff
Good to save transfer this week or would you do Lukaku > Giroud/Benteke? -
RMT guys
Guzan
Zabaleta, Azpili, Taylor
Hazard, Fab, Silva, ADM, Sanchez
Austin, Kane
Hamer, Bony, Hutton, Duff
When is Bony leaving for African Cup? Who would I bring in for Bony?
Suggestions? Any way to improve the team? -
That big number stat makes eriksen (c) fail even more annoying
-
Commiserations mate. He trolled me constantly last season and this season while I had him
-
I don't mind having him but think captain isn't a good option
-
-
I think it's Eriksen all over tbh. Every 4/5 he will get the big haul, past that, puts the stats up and not much else.
-
-
Anyone got any stats on how many minutes Clichy and Lolorov were awarded at this time last season?
-
they played a game together and then rotated I had a look earlier.
http://uk.soccerway.com/teams/england/manchester-city-football-club/676/matches/ -
Both were fit. Kolarov played 2 out of 3, and came off the bench for the other.

I have a front 3 of Costa Bony Austin
Would you swop any? I'm thinking of getting Kane-
I have the same three and I'm keeping them all.
-
You not interesting in Kane vs Leicester?
-
then v man u and chelsea?
-
Man U defence is pants though, can see him scoring against them
-
Austin has 2 home games after this week, I back him to heavily outscore Kane (rotation risk) over the 3 games
-
You think Kane is a rotation risk? I don't
-
-
-
-
-
-
Same front 3. Thinking about bringing in the same man before his imminent price rise. Can't bring myself to lose any of them.
-
I can just see Kane scoring big time against Leicester
-
-
I have the same 3 keep and enjoy
-
Kane for Bony, if you can use the funds wisely in midfield
-
-
Is Rvp to Falcao far too sideways?
Frees up 2m in cash!-
I would wait for some consitent starts before considering it
-
-
Can see a super low GW incoming!
If I do siggy --> silva on a free I would have the front 8 of:
Sanchez fab oscar silva downing
Austin Lukaku bony
Thoughts on that?
