With Gameweek 21 done and dusted, we dig deep into the data in our regular Sunday evening article. A trio of in-form midfielders at Arsenal, Man City and Swansea are amongst tonight’s topics, whilst we also assess United’s alarming attack, Burnley’s raiding right-back and the main men for West Brom and Palace as Tony Pulis and Alan Pardew kick-start their respective stints at the helm with a victory.
Two quick questions:
1. Zaba->Bertand transfer?
2. Play Austin or sterling?
Hamer (STO)
Wisdom (eve) Zaba (ARS) Terry
Sanchez Hazard Fab Sterling (avl) Downing (HUL)
Barnes (CRY) Kane (c)
Sub: Austin (MUN), Duff (CRY), Hutton (LIV)
1. Yes
2. AustinThank you!
I agree with Demel, variation would be tk consider Skrtel for one week if you're WCing next week or playing Austin over Barnes.
Will this WC team create too much of a benching headache every week? Thanks!
Panti Mannone
Terry Bertrand Wisdom
Haz Sanchez ADM Sterling Chadli
Aguero Kane
Bench: Austin PVA Hutton.... £0.5 ITBProbably, but it doesn't make sense to purposely get a cr&p player in just to make your decisions easier!
Imo sterling not worth it atmYeah I can understand that, just that he's playing good just not finishing so well. Also will be coming back from a good rest!
I have an identical team other than Mannone, I like it
Can I get some advice on WC please? 0.9 to spend and midfield needs to be sorted.
Only condition is Costa stays.
Foster .. Myhill
Ivanovic .. Skrtel (Clyne next week) .. Wisdom .. Wabiglebowski .. PvA
Hazard .. Eriksen .. Boyd .. Sigurdsson .. Sanchez
Costa .. Aguero .. Austin (Ings + 0.5)I prefer Chadli to Eriksen and Terry to Ivanovic.
Certainly frees up cash and is being considered. Thoughts on Cahill?
Hmm. If you had the extra cash I'd go for Terry just because he seems the most nailed on.
Dropped are my thoughts on Cahill. Fall guy for 5-3 defeat to Spurs.
Wabiglebowski 😯
How much for Siggy?6.4m for Siggy.
Got good stats so was planning to bench him for 2.So why do you need your midfield sorted? That is a good midfield.
Thought Eriksen & Boyd might have been a bit too weak to support benching Siggy.
Cheers dude.
Eriksen to puncheon and upgrade Boyd to Downing
Ivan to Terry and upgrade myhill?
More SOU def?Cheers, will look into this and tinker.
Erik > Silva somehow.
Cheers HVT, more tinkering needed for sure.
Cheers all, much appreciated. Off to change a nappy (not mine).
how's this wc team looking chicos? I kinda dig it tbh
forster foster
terry Bertrand hutton oshea trippier
downing jwp chadli sanchez hazard
costa kane kunI like it, particularly Like the double SOU defence
Not sold on jwp, o Shea or trippier though.
Think there is better valueMaybe wisdom to get a bit of pulis in there?
cheers
Not bad. Not sold on the double Spurs attack tho (unreliable team) or Downings fixtures
Also PVA > O'Shea
guz / myhill
terry / baines / zab / wisdom / bart
down / alexis / siggy / haz / silva
costa / austin / kane
0.7m itb 2 ft any suggestions on how to accomodate agero for austin ?
thank you !Who is Bart- Bertand?
bartley, sorry. dead man walking
Monday mornings always usually have a good crowd on here. What do we think of this lot? Rubbish team value so had to 'cut some corners' to get the big hitters (and defensive coverage).
Courtois - Hamer
Jones - Fonte - PVA - Baird - Wasi
Hazard - Sanchez - ADM - Puncheon - Boyd
Aguero - Costa - Kane
Too risky/cheap in defense?Defence isn't too bad actually, but I don't like the Courtois pick. Is he even 100% nailed on?
Perhaps downgrade him to Foster and upgrade Jones to Terry?Can afford Foster and Cahill... just with the immediate fixtures, think united coverage is better than double Brom?
Defensive woes, Gilks about to drop, no Kun... some help please on how to turn arrows from red to green in the top500?
2FT 3.8ITB (Jan WC available)
Guzan // Gilks
Zabaleta // Azpilicueta* // O'Shea // Wisdom // Saylor*
Sanchez // Hazard // Silva // Siggy // Downing
Costa // Austin // Kane
A) Austin + Zaba >> Aguero + Wasilewski
B) Costa + Saylor/Azpi >> Aguero + Bertrand/Baines/Terry
C) Gilks(to avoid drop) + Saylor/Azpi >> Heaton + Bertrand/Baines/Terry
D) WC (and waste FT)
E) Something else?
I've had Costa since GW1 so I'm a bit hesitant to drop...
chadli (SUN) silva (ARS) sanchez (mci) hazard (swa) downing (HUL)
kane (SUN) austin (MUN) aguero (ARS)
bench 1??
Silva
Obviously you haven't read the article above Timbo.
I think he'll revert to normal now Aguero is back.
Sold him this week too. Damn.
Swap Aguero for Costa and you have my front 8. It's a really tough decision this week. Before yesterday's match I was even considering benching Sanchez...
May end up with Austin on the bench, but the only thing I know, is that I will make the wrong decision.
P.S. I benched Kane against Chelsea
Morning chaps, and chapesses (and any others that do not fall into either categories)
After Aldi pulling his hammy, and yoshida off at ACON, how safe is it to assume that gardos will get to start for a couple of weeks?Yoshida off at ACON 😯
Safe!OK, the aisa one, whatever that's called 😉
Anybody willing to share the best wildcard team they have seen to date?
Why would I give away for free my master plan? 🙂 didn't WC yet
Before GW24 is the latest we can wildcard?
Want to WC now but it's best to hold off!
One last big game from Downing and Baines hopefully.
downing probably. Not sure about baines
Will also be nice to see which teams will play in the C1C final before potentially filling your team with three Chelsea and two Spurs players.
FFF told me to capitain Sanchez this week 😮
Granville said it too.
No this upcoming week, not last week, the game away to city
If anyone is bound to score for Arsenal it is him, the massive stats he got this GW back that up.
the 20k mark seems to be the hardest to make any ground in, constantly dropping and rising over the last month without making any head way 🙁
won't help after jan when everyone has aguero and majority same team
It gets worse higher up.
This but the drops are lower too ie a bad week only costs 300-500 places.
nope, that 20-50K bracket is very volatile. Both triggerlips and I scored a woeful 58 this week. Triggerlips dropped 1K, I dropped 10K
Gotta go against the grain. It's the only way!
yeah, captaining Sanchez this week was the way too go, I didn't even consider it to be honest
I would say the top100. 10 red arrows in the last 12 and i still find myself inside the top100.
Its mostly about the captain choice imo. Teams are so similar that your captain will decide your rank change.
Saying that, with WCs active, ADM back and Aguero back forcing people to make a choice on Costa it could shake up the template a tiny bit.
Its time to try something different and not forming the same team as the rmt teams here. At some point u will find it hard to breakthrough
Like I said in a previous post. If everyone has the same attack, defence is the differential
Emre Can turned 21 today...hard to believe for me.
Is a WBROM defender really that essential?
depends if you like clean sheets
No. Chelsea and Sot'on is.
I have those. That's a given.
Yes, everyone will have those. But apart from Che/Sot, WBA and Sun probably the best picks, as they are also cheap. Think I'm looking at Che+ 2x Sot + Wba/Sun + cheapie myself
I have 3 ATM!
Jebus, when are you playing them?
Not really.
If you have chelsea/soton defenders it wouldn't hurt having a punt on baird. Yes wba will be good defensively
Any love for a SWA | SUN | HUL rotation?
Looks great on paper....Im starting to go off SWA a little bit...Hull is an interesting one instead of say WBA.
Might then just get Foster with SUN/HULL/VILLA rotating.

Is Tadic going to get more game time with Mane at ACON?
Fixtures look pretty good.
Are there any missed fixtures due to league cup semi-finals?
I was wondering if anyone knows if any games will be postponed due to league cup semi-finals?
Any thoughts on this potential wildcard team?
Foster - Pantilimon
F.Luis - N.Taylor - Gardos - Van Aanholt - Wisdom
Hazard - Sanchez - Sterling - Henderson - Boyd
Aguero - Costa - Kane
0.6 ITB to swap out F.Luis if Azpi is back.
