what are ppls opinion on clichy starting?
I'm definitely doing it, but have 3 playing subs just yo make sure
kolarov didnt look particularly good so yeah i think clichy will start
Hi
just back from hols
what's happening with the EPL cup on the website
It says I am disqualified as I had a rank of 2.5million when in fact I I have a rank of 160k
(had a look at my mates team and he is the same)
Looks a bit fishy
you qualify based on your GW 17 score
Assume what's happened is your gameweek rank was 2.6m and only top 2m qualified. Overall rank irrelevant
Its based on game week ranking (for week 17 i think).
my overall rank was ~60k and i didn't qualify either
Okay guys so I'm not even close to a decision yet. Let's try narrow it down..
Which defence should I invest in this week, as a replacement for Kelly.
A. Liverpool
B. Villa(have Guzan)
C. West Ham
D. United
Cheers!ðŸ™
Looking at Utd but unsure who to get?
Are they going to revert back to a back 4 now that Rafael and Shaw are fit?
D
the villa double up is cheap and tasty for at least the next two fixtures. if you are going to WC soon then id go for that
Who to bench from this front 8?
Sanchez, Hazard, Silva, Eriksen, Downing
Costa, Austin, Kane
Kane is probably the right call on paper, but he has looked great in recent weeks.
Either Eriksen or Kane, tough call
I would do Eriksen to Sterling (if available) and bench Kane
Has to be Kane
Kane. Set pieces sway it for eriksen
Kane after siggy burned me this week
its a tough one.
If spurs score a goal vs chelsea, one of kane or eriksen will involve.
I would bench Downing as I feel he will be rested
People worried about factoring Kun from now it's foolish.
By the time he is playing 80+ min games and banging them in it will be over month and a half from now.
And by then, you should have been able to maneuver your transfers to have the money freed up anyway.
Bottom line, play with the next 3 to 4 game weeks in mind only. Anything beyond that and a nice old injury to another mane cog will ruin any plays you put forth from now.
Is there news Aguero would be returning this GW?
Perhaps 99.9% of you are unaware, and haven't seen my previous posts.....
Kun is back imminently.
I may bring him in Thursday night.
I heard Mid Jan. Where is the news coming from/ I gather you are "in the know".
that changes things Stupendous but uhh, link please.
Have a mate in the marketing Dept at City, and another who rubs shoulders with TOP brass.
I've just read your post again mate
6 weeks?????
Mate. Imminent.
From about 1/4 mile from Etihad across a nice new bridge
He is NAILED for Everton Jan 10th. Bench on Thursday is mooted but, not worth a transfer regardless IMO.
Or is it....
Stupendous.
As a City fan loving this. Even that he is ahead of schedule (by quite a bit)
lol
this is the actual link Hellasleaf: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/sergio-aguero-hands-manchester-city-4874392
the article put it very optimistically that he "could be fit for Everton" but goes on to say that he is still a worry for the trip to the Bridge on 31 Jan. Bench appearances before that imo
After this week, Hart > DDG?
Sensible. But it very rarely works out to be that easy
india enroute to another whitewash 🙠ðŸ™
some cricket match going on?
Australia v India
not a whitewash, they drew the match
Who to bench this GW guys, bearing in mind I already have Guzan?
A) Hutton (CRY)
B) Azpi (tot)
C) Cresswell (WBA)Azpi
who has a better chance of starting this gw - zaba or terry?
Both will
both will start
@Koflok
What's your team, mate?
Thoughts?
Hart
Dummett Baines Zaba Hutton Naylor
Sanchez Hazard Downing Siggy Boyd
Austin Costa Boyd
2FTs, 0.6 ITB...
Thinking Baines + Bony > Jovetic/Carroll + TerryBony*
This place will need more servers Thursday when Kun is amongst the sub's....
highly doubt it. but would be ace if that happens
Costa + eriksen out hazard + jovetic in.
Just until the wild card kicks in...
What say you all?
Rest of attack:
Sterling, Silva, Downing, Fabregas
Lukaku, Kane(GW 20 bench)
jovetic, r u kidding?
whats wrong with jovetic?
meh lukaku to austin and eriksen to hazard seems just as viable and better
Cannot! I have three Chelski players (should've mentioned I have JT)
I'm considering Jovetic as well but I'm not sold on him
Got lost at the bottom of the last page...
What players will be leaving for AFCON and what GWs will they be unavailableCheck older posts there's an article on it
omg, yes there is a whole scout article on it.. came out yesterday.
Sorry no need to be rude about it... Been very busy and got on to ask a question. Cheers to Rhinos for being polite about it
I have 3.1 in the bank but no free transfers so don't know if i should just hold on to it. What do you think?
Heaton,
Baines, moreno, clichy
downing, y toure, sanchez, hazard, sterling
benteke, austin,
Guzan, hutton, kane, n taylor.
Bench is safe. Attack and keepers are a little weak...Hold without a doubt your bench has players most managers will be starting
Cheers! Actually have a defensive benching headache for once. Considering dropping baines, although i believe the rule is 'never bench baines'!
Captains choice:
Hazard
Silva
Austin
Stumped after Austin blankAustin!
Hazard
What if my ML rival will captain silva and he's eroded my lead from 80 to 37 points due to my poor captains choices?
All the giants are through to rd 3 of the fpl cup! Trying to fly the Sg flag high!!
??
i beat an indo guy by 1 pt #happy
Tokara, are you a singaporean? what is your team id?
What GK combo will everyone go with on the WC?
I'm thinking Pantillimon / whoever Pulis takes over.Pulis is taking over which club?
Linked with West Brom.
ooh nice! Wisdom becomes a season keeper then if the move goes through
I'd double up for Wbrom defenders straight away of that happens 🙂
Guzan/Panty
Ddg/4.0
Heaton/Forster
Keepers never a concern
Who would think Rob bladdy Green saves a Sanchez pen?
Sticking with Pantz/Krul
I'm thinking Courtois..and a cheapo
Courtois over a Chelsea defender?
I'm happy to keep Heaton but that sounds a good plan
Makes sense to get hart, right? Only sure fire way into the city defence.
Stupendous really sticking his neck out saying Aguero is nailed for Everton game.
*puts him under pressure
Stupey is a young lad and a little emotional at times. I'll sort him out next time he's on.
Jafa mate I'm 31 born St Mary's, played for City youth three years, and am well in City set up.
I don't piss about with footy.
Just hits!!! 😉
You are still a young lad. From where I'm standing! 😉
Hey Doos! Thanks for your help this week. Nailed the no. of goals conceded by my defenders perfectly 🙂 (although all still conceded lol)
If you have the time, could you gimme the CS chances of the same 5: CHE, SOT, HUL, WBA, SWA as well?🙂
Can you ask me later? Still tinkering with the ticker. Will be done tonight.Sure!
It gets updated every week, to account for latest matches.
Ah I see, to take form into account as well I suppose? 🙂
Yes. We start off with last Season as the base - promoted teams suitably adjusted. By now, half of that is all gone.
Great! So I'm asking you for it at the perfect time when your ticker is at the peak of it's powers, then 😉
Its getting there. Game week 33. 😉
😀
Still working for me thus far tho 😉
for this week, i mean 🙂
Bookmark this link & it'll save you some time in the future...
http://www.paddypower.com/football/football-matches/premier-league?ev_oc_grp_ids=9551I used to use this and it was horrible! 😆 trying a different way now
Cheers anyway!Where do you think anyone here is getting their clean sheet odds from if not from sources like this?
The bookmakers are the people who set the odds after all.
These are the professionals who make a living setting lines...
Respectfully, this community is amazing but, I don't know if there's a full-time bookmaker / professional handicapper among us, is there?Bookies odds are mainly based on which odds are in high demand i.e. general consensus. What I am looking for is not what majority thinks, but analysis of fixture difficulty which bookies don't present to the public.
> Bookies odds are mainly based on which odds are in high demand i.e. general consensus
This statement isn't entirely accurate...
While certain *pubic* teams can move a line slightly (think Man Utd or Arsenal) due to the volume of bets their fans will place; overall, bookmakers are looking to find a # that will hopefully create an equal amount of action on each side & then profit by taking the vig.
Moreover, the volume of $ / ticket count for a prop bet like clean sheet odds wouldn't be high enough even for fans of these public teams to skew these odds to a point that they wouldn't be useful to us.
> analysis of fixture difficulty which bookies don't present to the public
This is precisely what they're presenting to the public though... They're the ones setting the odds!
And like any market, the betting market will *correct* itself too.Your argument on both points are that the general public heavily take into account fixture difficulty, and less so on club affinity. I disagree with this. The fans don't have access/don't bother with stats when deciding whether to bet for a particular odd. What they do take into account is the history of the teams e.g. past meetings between the two sides and injury concerns of the two teams (things that they know thru following football regularly, without going into deep analysis) and, of course, club affiliation. This does skew the bookies odds horribly as important factors like the attacking threat of the less known opposition (and other factors that I can't think of right now) are not taken into consideration.
These are the factors that are EXTREMELY heavily analysed on this site and hence, I personally believe that the opinion of people on this site is better than that of the bookies/general public.
Ta. 🙂
Ffs I ballboyed at Maine Road and sat with Curly Watts 🙂
Haaaaaaa!
Sell yaya and/or skrtel??
Forster (mccarthy)
Azpi zab hutton (naylor SKRtEL)
YAYA hazard alexis downing (boyd)
Austin costa bony
1Ft, 0.2Not bony, tekker
If Yaya out get Sterling/Llalana/Silva, if not I'd save. Skrtl can be benched
Keep both. I reckon yaya will play
wait on Yaya news..then decide..
Yaya would either be out due to injury or out due to AFCON. IMO No need to keep him any longer.
Arrange starting order for coming gw
1. Hutton
2. Kane
3. BoydYou just did
123
442 it is though I see benched points this coming gw
Goodness Gracious Me.
Look at Chelsea's upcoming fixtures....
Aguero. Costa. Rooney
The holy grail again.
Three City. Three Chelsea. Gw22/23 til seasons end.
Done deal.Typical English weather will give us DGW scores well into the 100's early next year!!!
Tooooooooooo expensive
I'll take Fab over Costa and put a cheapie like Kane or Austin up front.
Hazard
What would you guys do with this team
Adrian
Terry-Naylor-Chambers
Hazard-Sanchez-Silva-Downing
Costa-Bony-Austin
Bertrand-Marney-Dummet+1.5ITB with 2FT
Get chambers out. He's not goin to start much now. And plan for bony exit after this gw
Nice mid you got there.Who should I move chambers for?
This
Good Bad or Ugly ? How can i use my FT ?
Guzan
Baines Azpi Naylor
Hazard Siggy Downing Sanchez Silva
Benteke Costa
Subs - Austin Wisdom MooreSave
on off.....big tune!
id play austin over siggy but could go either way
Who to captain this week? And should I bench siggy or Milner? This is my team atm:
Guzan
Azpi clichy naylor (O'Shea , wisdom)
Hazard Downing siggy sterling (C) (Milner)
RVP Bony Austin (VC)
Thoughts pls.I'd keep it as you have it
Pelle to Jovetic/Benteke? 1 FT 1.5 in the bank
Foster Krul
Debuchy Bertrand Taylor O'Shea Wilson
Hazard Alexis Sterling Eriksen Boyd
Costa Pelle AustinI like it for Tekkers. but the thing is, Pelle could possibly match that output without using the transfer.
True. Why all the love for Tekkers lately when he only has two in his last six?
I got him a few weeks back based on his fixtures, and no worries about long term as wildcard is coming. I would assume the same logic was used by others.
There isn't much quality forwards available atm to replace pelle. I would save the FT for next week
And get giroud for gw 21. That's my plan to replace bony
yeah i think keep pelle over tekkers. better team. aston villa really have a hard time scoring
Repost
Well that was a fail
Hey lads
Been away last week but got myself into the top 1k in the process
Any news on Yaya and if he is out who do I get?
Haz Silva Downing Yaya Boyd
Costa Rooney Austin
0.8 ITB 1 FT
CheersIf out get Fabregas/Cazorla/Sanchez/Lallana or just play Boyd and save FT
Thinking sterling or Lallana
Okay! 🙂
Question I am sure some are struggling with.
Do Giroud owners hang on and start next GW or maybe cash in by going Tekkers or another qualify forward this week and bending 5th mid (usually a poor away fixture).There are only two TOP QUALITY forwards, right now.
And he is not one of them!!! 😀
who would you say they are? i count 0
Van Persie and Austin. But I do take your point.
Costa has THREE shots on target, over the las FOUR PL matches. Crappy.hmm I watched RVP against spurs and his finishing was simply dreadful.
Austin is the one who maybe can be said is up there for me.
Yeah, horrible. Terrible fpl value aswell, won't be coming near my side unless BIG improvements are made statistically and performance wiseIf you really maintain that, then you weren't watching properly. Sorry! 🙂
Anyway the next forward is some way behind ...
Rooney - 5 in 4.
SoT aren't what we're *really* worried about though...
I mean obviously it's nice when a player puts the ball on net!
Although, in the end SiB is the number we're really concerned with.
SiB = Goals!Small *4 match* samples ain't what I'm talking about though...
Notice a very strong correlation for the season here? 😉
SiB Equals Goals!
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/public-stats-tables/view/8118/
Balotelli and ?? 🙂
How will United defence line up? Will they revert to a back 4
Ugh. Was doing so well until last week. Debated long and hard and sold siggy and hazard for silva and sterling and got stuffed!
Anyway any comments on this team. Think I'm good to go with no changes but will WC soon and bring back hazard.
Heaton, Krul
Hutton, Terry, Dummet, chambers, zaba
Silva, sterling, downing, Sanchez, Jedi
Costa, Rooney, Austin
Cheers
Jedinak has already gone to Asia Cup?
So weak bench with Chambers, but no need for a hit.Ouch. Well there is always Jan 1 to right the wrongs. 😉
Really good team.Nevertheless, good moves. Luck plays a part.
Hazard and Cazorla, yes.
