We delve into the Gameweek 20 data this evening and serve up some of the most impressive numbers from New Year’s Day. QPR, Swansea, Aston Villa and Man City’s strikers arrive under the radar, whilst we also cast an analytical eye over in-form midfielders from Spurs, Leicester and West Brom.

Good Morning DZ.
Quick advise on who to bench from the below please!
A) Zabaleta
B) Hutton
C) Azpi
D) Cresswell-
Bench Hutton I think.
-
Zaba
-
B imo
-
-
Wildcard effort below. Thoughts appreciated..
Heaton Panti
Cahill, Alde, Hutton, Lescott, Cameron
Haz, Sanchez, Silva, Chadli
RVP, Costa, Kane
0.0 itb-
boyd fifth mid. Plan is RVP - Aguero in a few weeks
-
4 at back? Looks good 🙂
-
nope - lineup for this week would be
heaton
cahill hutton lescott
sanch silva haz chadz
rvp costa kane
would usually start cahill and toby and rotate third def but keep 343-
One of Hutton/Cameron will always be available as they rotate perfectly, so Lescott is just an expensive bench fodder imo.
------------
Hutton-Cameron rotation:
lei, lei, QPR, new, hull, AVL, HULL, WBA, sun, CRP-
But that's hardly perfect rotation, having to play them away so often.
-
Villa has kept clean sheets in away games. Not a fan of H/A rotation.
-
yeah could be a good shout but wb have decent fixtures which id prefer to some of those and 4.9 doesnt feel too expensive. could drop lescott to wisdom and upgrade cahill to terry but lescott seems most likely to survive under tp based on whats said here
-
If you're playing two defenders each week and rotating the third spot, you want to look for a 3 way rotation that gives you an easy home fixture each week, an occasional away game is sometimes unavoidable, but I wouldn't want to be playing a cheapie away 50% of the time.
-
Cool, no problem. Everyone has their own taste 🙂 Just think Lescott is too expensive to rotate...
-
Yeah, and everything looks good on paper, but we know it won't go according to plan, so yeah, whatever feels right is probably right. 😉
-
True that. Still we put so much time 😀
-
-
-
-
also, some weeks like this week, i wont want to play toby
-
-
-
I stumbled upon Hutton Cameron in my WC draft. Good to see it has a decent rotation lol
-
-
-
-
-
So Kane didn't score last night.
Sell! Sell!-
PANIC.
Sanchez & Kane -> Gerrard & Berahino -
and Gerrard scored 2 twice..Buy!! Buy!!
-
-
Play 3 please from :
Zabaleta, Terry, Naylor, Hutton, Davies
Currently on Zab, Terry and Hutton is that correct? Can see Spurs beating Palace well and Swa at home...-
Zab, Terry, Hutton imo
-
Ta mate
-
-
-
Hart dropped or just rested?
-
rested
-
-
I know it's against City, but surely Baines is still a better option than Trippier this week?
No Yaya, Aguero or Dzeko, City leaking goals and all it takes is 1 peno!
Also, Everton have only conceded an average of 1 goal at home to City over the past 4 years, including 2 clean sheets in 4.
Zaba -> Trippier/Baines for me (looking at the next 2 weeks only)-
but that means half the time they're conceding two goals
-
Yep, I believe it was:
EVE 2:3 City
EVE 2:0 City
EVE 1:0 City
EVE 2:1 City
3 wins from 4 isn't bad!-
These stats are largely irrelevant.
It has taken Martinez a while to get them defending like Wigan but they're finally there.-
Haha!
-
-
-
-
Benching Baines this week. If he doesnt score/assist, will probably end with -ve score.
-
I wouldn't buy Baines this week if that's what u are proposing. Why not keep Zab?
-
-
can anyone tell me if Rose played last night. He seems to be a good differential now he is fit again but he did get a knock against Chelsea. I was impressed with his display.
-
Not worth a look. He lost his spot to Davies then they were both rotated over the Xmas period
-
Wasn't in squad so I don't know if that's because he is rested or if Davies is still preferred
-
-
Does it make sense to do Moore to Walker/ Rose for a hit? Current defence -
Hart
terry vergini hutton dummet moore-
Moore to Cresswell if possible or just play Vergini
-
-
I bought him, played him for 0,0, and then wildcarded him out.
Zabaleta nailed on for a double digits haul?!-
He's due 😉
-
Mini league rival has had him from the start. So I know from his moanings that it's not been a vintage year.
-
baines > zaba 😀
-
-
Gilks is on -80.1 in fplstatistics. Can anyone tell me what is the likelihood he drops down to 3.9m. Valuable 0.1m as we wildcard.
-
don't know if this is the best site but according to here he's about to drop.
http://totalfpl.com/pricechanges
but can keepers go below 4.0?-
totalfpl don't know what they are doing.
It's nearly impossible to predict price drops now as any transfers done on a WC doesn't come into play iro price hikes/drops-
you seem to know more than me am I correct keepers don't go below 4.0?
but there's that Isgrove guy and I had thought 4.3 for mids was the cellar.-
Any player can drop to any price.
-
Nah the limit is starting price minus (38x0.3)
😉-
*37x0.3
If we're being pedantic
😉-
GOD you're SO pedantic! 😀
-
-
-
-
-
-
on second examination not enuf ownership to cause a drop. only reason would be because of WC's anyone who owns won't after they play it.
-
-
Oi, I just logged off, thought I wouldn't get any replies. Thanks for the info though.
-
-
Am i crazy not to do bemteke --> kane for one more week (tekkers play lei)
-
No
-
-
Which option suits my team best?
-------------------De Gea
--------Baines | Zabaleta | Cissokho
Hazard | Silva | Fabregas | Eriksen
-----------Kane | Rooney | Austin
________________________________________
Sterling | Davies | Moore
A) Baines -> Terry
B) Baines -> Ivanovic
C) Baines and Sterling -> Trippier and Sanchez, -4-
def A
-
A for me
-
-
Anyone else out there who hasn't sold Bony or Yaya yet? Not sure how long I can wait but team news is always worth waiting for
-
I still own Yaya.
-
😯
-
Presumably just hasn't decided on a replacement yet, like me.
-
silva?
-
Not for me, no.
-
candidates?
-
Chadli/ADM/Cesc
No specific order.-
...and Walcott
-
Walcott will take time I think. Sanchez is enough surely
-
Maybe. Wally is last on my list of candidates.
-
thought it was in no specific ordere
"same old xtina, always cheatiiing -
😕
-
-
nay to theo for now, adm or cesc if not silva
-
-
-
-
-
It's currently a toss up between ADM and Silva and Fab for me 😀 Leaning heavily toward ADM - if I knew he was playing it would be him.
-
yer, adm could be great differential at this stage. he looked pretty sharp when he came on vs yeowil
-
Yep, he really changed the game I thought.
-
Were Yeovil running away with it?
-
No, not at all, I just thought he made a noticeable difference to the game.
-
-
-
-
ADM and Chadlii for me. Not sure if LVG will give us any indicators before the match though
-
South will be very tough though.
-
Yeah that's true. United have a bit about them at the moment, ADM will provide another boost to their confidence
-
-
"we follow a philosophy, we shall see who matches for this match
with heavy dutch accent -
Hmm Chadli is a good thought, he seems to grab goals. Yep, I expect nothing from LVG, however, I hope Yeovil counted as the "easing in" for di Maria.
-
-
-
-
-
-
Yeah, prices aren't changing much. Might as well wait for the press conferences before deciding on a replacement
-
-
-
Which option from next GW?
A) Austin and ADM
B) Aguero and Boyd-
lol at option B
-
Wait till ADM/Kun gets gametime. No one can answer the Q currently.
-
-
Best defender pick?
a. Bertrand
b. Cresswell
c. Skrtel
d. Walker
e. Mertesacker
f. Clichy
g. Shawcross-
A
-
for 1 GW, 2, 3, medium term or rest of the season? every period has has a different answer
-
for the next 2-3 gws
-
B or maybe C imo
-
-
-
Bertrand
-
-
green
hutton wisdom zab kolorov bert
nasri erik haz siggy boyd
kane costa rooney
3 itb 2ft
kolorov and nasr i to terry and? -
I was thinking of waiting on ADM. But he came off the bench and scored, and has a week to rest. A start seems likely, right?
-
Against Southampton though?
-
Well, I'm benching Bertrand, and I'm a southampton fan.
Yes they are solid, but similarly they won't sit back against manU and will be playing for a win. They don't play for draws as the league table shows (fewest draws in the league IIRC) -
Also I'm on wildcard so if I want him next week I might as well get him in if he's starting
-
Fair enough. Will be using Saints game as a decider for whom I want(from United) in WC team 🙂
-
-
-
Huge difference between playing Southampton and Yeovil.
Still seemed to be taking too many shots from over25 yards for my likng-
I'm not saying because of a game against Yeovil, but because of gametime in general.
And in FF you want your player to shoot on sight. Better than passing 😀
-
-
-
When's Bony back?
-
*resists urge to make joke
-
When it's all over. He'll be there at the end
-
-
My WC team as it stands, fellas, starting this week. Feedback really appreciated ...
DDG,
Trippier, Wisdom, Hutton
ADM, Fab, Haz(c), Sanchez
Costa, RVP, Kane
(Hamer, Alderweireld, PVA, Boyd)
RVP to Aguero when he's up and running ...
Cheers all ..-
looks good, but not sold on RVP, he aint sharp enough anymore
-
Yea, that's my issue with it too. I just want a clean transition to Kun. Could be Roo, Falcao, Ings, Austin, etc)
-
That's a decent call actually - would like a Chelski defender in, to be honest. Cheers.
-
-
-
Looks good.
Have you considered Giroud in place of Costa and using the cash to bring in a couple of decent defenders
-
-
Overall leader has TV of 103.6m
lol-
he is probably laughing everyone who cares about TV though
-
I reckon that is Christina's point
-
😮
-
-
-
What a loser.
-
leader need patience.. and he never runs after money 🙂
-
And that's the reason he won't win.
-
He will still finish higher than you, me, and pretty much everyone else.
-
Probably but having a big TV is such an advantage in the second half of the season. I won't be threatening him with my TV of 103.9 though 🙂
-
This season that might not even be true. So many cheap players performing better than their expensive rivals.
I made a team with a rule that it must have 10mil in the bank (So squad costing about 90m) and it has beaten my real team comfortably over the last 4 weeks 🙁 -
Isn't looking anything like that this season. Could change of course, but it doesn't look like it.
-
-
-
Yeah, you will with a TV of 103.9m
lol-
At which point did I imply I was going to win.
lol
-
-
-
wow, that is incredible
how can he have the right players and not gain TV?-
Probably selling players when nobody else would
-

Guide to success.
Step 1: Buy Alan Hutton
Step 2: ????
Step 3: Profit -
Unremarkable. I guess he just has impeccable timing.
-
-
He hasn't chased tv when his players weren't favoured
-
-
-
A) Terry Austin
B) Trippier Sanchez, -4 -
pick 1 to replace yaya:
A. ADM
B. Sterling
C. Fab
D. Walcott/Cazorla-
B
-
Fab
-
C for me
-
C
-
C or a punt on D -Cazorla
-
thanks all... prolly go with fab
-
C, but for me I chose Terry, Costa and Haz as my 3 chelsea
-
-
When does Bony return from AFCON?
-
-
Cheers.
-
-
when his team is knocked out
-
Im going to report you.
-
Do it, loser.
-
-
😀
-
-
Done.
-
Sense of achievement?
lol-
Clean out your desk.
The FFS cavalry are on it's way.-
*poo's pants*
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
Too many winners here
*logs off-
*whiners
-
One less of those now at least
lol
-
-
-
Liverpool vs Bolton. The Heskey derby 😆
-
😆 *Brace Incoming*
-
-
In WC you guys going for a Single Premium keeper or a keeper combo? and if a Keeper combo then a Mid - Budget or a Double Budget Combo?
-
4.5m x 2
I've had a 4.5m+4m combo since Gw 4.-
ooh Nice..I'm thinking at a 5 and 4.5 combo...
-
-
Well I felt Panti was a must have given his ppg. So I have partnered him with Heaton who has decent fix for his tough ones and is cheap
-
Saying that I've had Foster since GW1 and now Pulis has come in I may regret shifting him!
-
Foster is a must given his price and nailed on status
-
If he is a must for you, then simply plug in his difficult games and see which keepers look good for them
-
Actually you might be right. Panti+Foster seems like a no brainer
-
-
-
-
2 mid budgets..
-
2 5s or 2 4.5s?
-
-
Foster/Panti
-
I was thinking Foster -- Adrian they rotate well
-
Panti's a must for me. Sunderland GK is always a gold mine.
-
Getting over a point more per game than any other regular GK.
-
hmm..thanks! will think about that
-
-
-
this. or just one of those + 4.0, depending on my budget.
-
-
Pantilimon-Guzan
-
Panti/Mannone(i am poor)
-
-
For those WCing late on, are you going GW23 or GW24, and what are your reasons?
For me it looks like GW23 is a no brainer. but I see a lot of people planning leaving it as late as possible, so interested to hear why.-
23 most prob
-
Why is 23 a no brainer?
-
Main reasons being
- 14 day period
- Fixtures turning for a number of teams (ARS, MUN, SOT, SUN)
- The likes of Aguero, Walcott etc should be back fit
I guess i dont really see the value in waiting till GW24
-
-
I'm doing it whenever it looks like the best time to buy Aguero.
-
Gw 24 or this
-
-
I am happy with my team.. will leave it late until GW24
-
Think it will be the early one, to give maximum time to prat about with my team
-
I'll hit the button when Walcott, Sturridge and Aguero are good to go.
-
Whenever my team looks boring 😛
-
23 - 2 weeks mean more time to play price rises (if any), easier fix if players get FAC injury, plus I don't think there'll be any significant January signing.
-
-
Remind me again why people are getting Lescott with their WC, and not Wisdom?
Lescott - 4.9m, on 54 pts, 282 BPS (6 Bonus points)
Wisdom - 4.4m, on 59 pts, 316 BPS (6 Bonus points)
I know the anticipated Pulis-effect might swing Lescott way, but he's not that big goal threat imo, unlike JT, unlike his EVE days. Plus 0.5m can do wonders in a WC team.
Care to share some thoughts?-
Agree with you..
-
cheers man
-
-
I think some feel that Wisdom might lose out to Gamboa under Pulis.
Lescott also offers a much bigger goal threat. Both are decent options imo (Wisdom owner)-
point taken. Wisdom owner here too, not making the switch with WC most probably.
-
-
Lescott scored so many goals one year, he now has a residual fanbase.
-
checkout his tab.. not that encouraging though.

Hi all! 😀
