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.

Wild card this week or next week ?
Players im getting rid have good fixtures and not sure about adm and aguero fitness
Fab (swa) -------> ADM (qpr)
Downing (hul) -------> Chadli (sun)
Rooney (qpr) -------> Aguero (ars)
Baines (wb) -------> Terry (swa)-
i'd rather next, more time to ponder upon options. + int break injuries.
-
Are there internationals?
-
not sure, just assume there is since there wont be any PL games next weekend.
-
Just looked. FA Cup. Same prob with potential injuries i guess
-
-
-
-
next week imo
-
U have already answer ur own qns
-
-
Anything worth changing? Not bringing in Aguero til after Chelsea. Think I'm gonna keep the faith in Haz captain:
Forster
Trippier / Terry / Bertrand
ADM / Hazard(c) / Fabregas / Sanchez
Falcao / Kane / Berahino
Foster / Boyd / Lescott / PvA
1FT, 2m ITB -
RVP or Azpili out ??
A)Azpili>JT
B)RVP>Aguero
team are;
Guzan
Azpili* BDavies Wisdom
Hazard Alexis Silva Fabregas
Kane Austin RVP
Elliott Naylor SDavis Duff-
Wait on the RVP injury news
-
rvp - kun done yesterday
-
-
Best mid priced keeper for WC? Foster, Guzan, Heaton, Krul?
-
Pantili?
-
Yes. But I have PVA and Wisdom for their respective cover
-
PVA and Wisdom are from two diff teams?
-
Yeah but i wouldnt want a keeper from those teams
-
-
-
-
Foster
-
-
Thinking of doing Rooney>Aguero this GW or am I a week too early, will Aguero be eased back gently?
-
One to bench from
Hazard (swa), Sanchez (mci), Sterling ((avl), Downing (HUL), Silva (ARS)
Costa (swa), Kane (SUN), Austin (MUN) -
Do Rooney -> Aguero this GW
or
Keep Rooney for good fixtures ; get Aguero on WC later?-
As a fellow Rooney owner, i'd advise you to get rid ASAP. The guy is being playing so deep it's mad.
-
-
Which do people prefer..
a) mid-priced midfielders e.g. siggy, downing, chadli
b) mid-priced forwards e.g. kane, austin-
this is to accompany big hitters elsewhere
-
Mid priced forwards
-
-
No Eriksen in the captain poll 😯 , yet RMT tool tells me to captain him 😕
-
same as FFF assistant manager
-
Odd oversight, I think. He has to be a candidate (but not for me).
-
Sun. is on top for chances conceded in centre zone and goal attempts in box conceded(last six)
wouldn't captain him either on current form
-
-
Despite the constant preaching of "cover" being a ridiculous term, the scoutpicks and captains poll continue to work on this basis. The assumption is that anyone wanting to vote for Eriksen will just vote for Kane instead.
Apples and Pears.-
i agree, it's the herd poll and the scout picks that please the herd
-
-
I thought Eriksen looked poor on MOTD. Thought he gave Palace a goal with his half-hearted attempt at a tackle and generally looked uninterested.
But on past performance you might expect him to be in the sheep poll.-
yeah very poor performance from him indeed
-
-
Fff told me to captain chadli
-
-
Just picked up Baird, Wisdom, Lescott in a draft league. BALLS TO THE WALL
-
In pulis you trust
-
Indeed. I did have Janmaat, Isla and Amat so it cant get worse
-
yes that's an upgrade
Mate in my mini league has
Foster/Forster
Clyne/Bertrand/wisdom/Lescott/Terry
That's committed.-
If you think those two teams will be highest scoring/best value then I don't see a problem with doubling up on both.
Trebling on two defences seems daft as you are going to be benching two of them every week.
-
-
-
-
-
If I wildcard now I can get:
Foster/Myhill
Skrtel, Terry, Bertrand, Cresswell, Duff
Fab & Haz, Silva, Sanchez, Marney
Austin. Aguero, Kane
0.1itb
Changes are:
Costa > Aguero
Downing > Hazard
STaylor > Duff
Guzan > Myhill
Marney clearly a season keeper!-
I like.
I've gone Costa and Kun which is why my defence is a little more budget 🙂-
I think that Fab & Haz combined at least covers the assists for Costa's goals and both are more of a BPS magnet than Costa.
-
Yeah I get that theory, leaves some cash over to strengthen elsewhere too.
-
-
-
LOL @ Marney stinking up your team.
Must be a way to get someone more useful in than him.
-
-
I made a goal shout, about Hazard, two days ago, I'm back now, what a feeling, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
-
I can comment now, yeah!!
-
Right take a breath,
What are you on about?-
He made a fake goal shout and got banned for a couple of days I suppose.
-
This
-
-
5 minutes left of the 3pms on Saturday, someone should HAZAAAAAAAARD!!! and then got duly deleted. Think this guy is coming forward as the culprit.
-
Spot on.
-
I was one of the ones you fooled. Checked Twitter, came back and you'd been rightfully removed.
-
-
-
Man, try not commenting for 1 day but reading every comment.That was my position for 2 days.
-
sounds like a lesson learned then
-
Let's hope so!

I am struggling a bit with the my WC defence.
I am certain of the template CHE | SOT.
However, torn between the following rotations:
a) SUN | BRN | AVL
b) WBA | STK | LEI
I think that WBA is a better prospect for cleanies, but I like the theoretical attacking prospects of a van Aanholt | Trippier | Hutton rotation; and I could always go with WBA | STK in goal.
Thoughts?-
I'm currently on B, cheaper too, can't afford A.
If you like A, don't bother with Stoke, just put Foster in goal.-
Yes, you're probably right re: Foster.
The other option with A is to take Duff over Trippier; I am not sure if he has permanently lost his place though.-
Yeah don't trust Duff.
-
-
-
Sun/villa/swans for me
burn in goal and then a switch to foster(if I can afford it...lol)-
Christina... What is so attractive about Sun/Villa/Swans?
-
Rotation
-
Ok, cool...
I will look into this.-
Swans could be stoke I guess, but Im not sure who is nailed on there and since i own Naylor Im not to keen to sell
GW 22-GW 26 gives me:
LIVP/BURN/SUN/QPR/WBA or STOKE -
Just checked, yes - does produce a better rotation than the others.
-
A stokey in for Naylor I guess is an option around GW 27 for their:
HULL
EVER
wba
CPAL
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
Wilcard GK/Defence
Foster/Guzan
Hutton/Cahill/Jenkinson/PVA/Wisdom
Any other suggestions?-
No SOT?
-
Sorry Forster is the keeper
-
Ok, makes sense.
How does it all rotate?
-
-
-
Guzan to Myhill
Cahill to Terry
Jenkinson to Gardos-
Do you reckon Gardos is worth the punt for the next month until Toby/Yosh return?
-
-
when you gona play hutton? Tough fixtures
-
-
Rank after saturday with Sanchez and RVP to play: 5,523
Current rank: 6.586
:/-
I was almost exactly the same. 5.8k to 6.8k with just Sanchez once. The captainers got us, as did the Saints clean sheet, and the Sterling autosubs.
-
Very odd. My rank after Saturday with just Sanchez to play was around 1,500 and now I'm on rank 1,797. How does that work then??
-
It means only 300 of the 1000 that went ahead of him, went ahead of you. So they were all lurking around the 4-6k mark, not affecting you as much.
-
Everyone has Sanchez.
A bunch of other people had Southampton defenders etc.
-
-
Close to 90% of the top 10k have Sanchez. Just picking him and not captaining him wouldn't really get you anywhere.
-
Although, if only 5% captained him and 88% owned him, you caught more people than those that caught you.
-
If u at the front end of the top 10k then it caught u more than others
-
-
-
Rank with sanchez to play : 2k
Current rank: 1.7k
Downing off bench 😀
-
-
Anyone know if you can only enter a Supporter's League before the start of the season? The FPL page sort of suggests this is true for your country league, but not clearly, and it doesn't mention it for 'Team You Support' leagues.
-
You can only enter before season starts. I missed the Everton one last season.
-
Thanks mate.
-
-
-
Current WC lot
B. Foster/ Hamer
Terry, Clyne, Baines, Chambers, Wasilewski
Fab & Haz, Chadli, Sanchez, JamesWardProwse
Aguero, Kane, Behrahino
0.4 itb
Any concerns? I think if Behrahino moved on from WBA I may shift him for someone else. -
This were my front 7 last week:
Downing-7pts
Silva-7 pts
Sanchez-19 pts
Hazard-3 pts
Kane-7 pts
Austin-8 pts
Falcao-0(Cissokho came in)
And guess whom i captained????-
Falcao?
-
Hazard, well by the way, I am not planning to get rid of Falcao, am I nuts?
-
No, I like him.
Just wish he played more. 😉
-
-
-
Has to be Hazard. I did the same with a very similar team
-
Hazard? At least Falcao would've given you a Vice Captain?
-
-
Hey guys do u think its a good time to get Rooney, now that RVP is injured? Or ADM would be a better choice from Man Utd
-
RVP's not definitely out, so I'd hold fire on either for now.
-
ADM better choice. Rooney playing far too deep and is probably likely to continue to do so. Falcao seems the logical replacement for RVP.
-
I think ignoring Man Utd is the best option. I have Rooney and can't wait to get rid of him. They just aren't great going forward.
-
-
bench one -
a. Austin
b. downing
c. eriksen
d. siva-
d.
-
😯
-
-
you mean siva-the hindu god?
-
-
I have enough funds to do Austin > Aguero in one transfer
Shall I do this or use the transfer to sort out my defence?
Guzan
Hutton, Clyne, Ivan, Bartley, Caulker
Haz, Sanchez, Downing, Silva, Boyd
Kane, Costa, Austin
Bartley and Caulker need to go really..-
Get Aguero mate.
-
Austin vs Man UTD could outscore him though.. worrying haha
-
-
Have you played winter WC yet?
-
Jan wildcard? No I haven't
-
-
-
I need a 1-week midfield punt up to 6.3. Any suggestions?
-
Puncheon
-
Ooh, likey wikey.
-
-
Walters
-
-
Who combo would you prefer on a wildcard?
A: Fab + Austin
B: Siggy + Costa-

WC active! First draft, anything people would change?
Foster/Myhill
Terry/Bertrand/PVA/Trippier/Wisdom
Sanchez/Hazard/Fabregas/ADM/Boyd
Aguero/Austin/Kane
0.4 ITB. Pretty set on midfield and attack, unsure about defence.-
I would have Costa.
-
Just bloody ditched him! I do really want to keep him, but it destroys the rest of my team, and I'm also not keen on ditching Austin or Kane.
-
That's my thinking too, Austin is such good value, as is Kane. But can you really see Austin performing with QPR's upcoming fixtures?
-
-
-
If you have decided on Fabregas over Costa then all good
-
Almost like my wc draft.
Only differences are foster / myhill to heaton / pants. And trippier to wasilewski.
So i like what i see. -
I did exactly the same. Took Costa out to bring in hazard.
-
-
Quite amusing how everyone stocking up on West Brom defence on the back of clean sheets against a non league team and a strikerless Hull. I'm hoping Baines derails the bandwagon 😉
-
I've had double WBA defence all season thank you very much 😉
-
-
Good day everybody 🙂
Normally not a friend of fixing a defense with a WC but currently freefalling.
Heaton/Gilks: ok i guess but not ideal
Azpi: injury/rotation doubt
Zaba: rotation doubt and currently zero returns
Baines: OK he got a couple of assists but still does not justify the price imo
Hutton: horrid fixtures coming up, Villa not good atm
Dummett: no comment
I think a WC is on the cards. Excuse the pun. Team is linked. Whaddaya think?
Thanks guys-
Baines a good pick this week
Zaba and Dummet not bad enough to wc for-
thanks, actually just saw that saving trsf is even better, can then get in a couple of punts with 2 FT for GW 23 and right after that use the WC
-
-
-
Taking that RvP won't play the next game and that Rooney will play in the midfield, should I get rid of finding form Falcao or get punty.
-
at this rate all benefit will go to adm imo
-
but he is not on form at all.
-
-
-
Should I WC with this lot or wait for the break.
A good few players risinb n falling!
Have 2 WC's if that makes any difference..
Guzan,
Trippier, Cahill, Clyne,
Hazard, Sanchez,Sterling, Downing
Austin (6.1), Costa (11.1), Kane (c)
Subs: Gilks, Wisdom,Siggy, Naylor,
1ft, 4.7m in account.. -
When making a decision on a player to transfer in what is the best tool to use on this site??
-
RMT and comparison tool are great.
-
1. Stats.
2. Season ticker.
3. RMT.
4. Community opinion. -
I've heard a lot of people use a tool called Copy Triggerlips.
-
Is RMT very accurate though
-
No, but that's why you should use all of the resources available to you.
In my opinion, best bet is:
1. Look at who has decent fixtures in the next 3.
2. Look at who has been performing well from those teams - just the player stats section, order by goal threat etc. over last 4 gameweeks.
3. Look at who does not have decent fixtures in the next 3 (from your team).
4. Look at who has NOT been performing well from those teams - just the player stats section, order by goal threat etc. over last 4 gameweeks.
5. Transfer bad player --> good player.
SIMPLES.-
Tools like RMT are useful for identifying players you perhaps hadn't considered and also identifying players that you might be benching more than you had envisaged etc.

Good to go with this Wildcard team?
Panti Foster
Wasilewski Terry Bertrand Wisdom Hutton
Hazard Alexis ADM Silva Boydinho
Aguero Kane Austin-
It's almost my exact team!
I like it a lot.
