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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Anyone with both wildcards put any serious planning on when to use both of them?

    Will we know teams likely to have DGW before the end of Jan WC?

    1. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Not really!

    2. mentoz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Atleast the League Cup Final will interfere with GW21, which I believe will give four teams a DGW later on (QPR-Spurs and Liverpool-City/Leicester-Chelsea).

    3. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'd imagine the DGWs are a long way off say GWs 33 or later. Plenty of time to manage the Che/Spurs assets.

    I was going to wait another week before buying Aguero, as I believe Rooney will score more against QPR than Aguero will against Arsenal, but I can't afford his proce to rise another 0.2M

    1. moz_1983

      11 years, 2 months ago

      I don't think it matters that much who City play against, give the little Argie a chance and he'll score.

      1. mentoz
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        True. Though he is still a bit rusty.

    2. afazeli85
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Similar dilemma. Though IMO Aguero will be worth it whether he's 12.4, 12.8 or 20.0 so I've decided to be relaxed about the situation and wait it out.... I think.

      1. mentoz
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I wish I could be as relaxed. Pulled the triggee earlier tonight.:)

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah, don't fear price rises...if you want someone bad enough, you'll always find a way to fit them in.

  3. Heydudes13
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Fabregas or Di Maria?

    1. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Fab

    2. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Undecided

  4. Jeremiah
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Any need to use WC?? 🙂

    Guzan - Mannone
    Azpi - Zab - Wisdom - Naylor - Moore
    Hazard - Silva - Downing - Sanchez - Marney
    Austin - Costa - Kane

    1. KingsKnee
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Not yet no

  5. pandaking
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Which £3.9 defender?
    Wasilewski or Baird

    1. KingsKnee
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Baird

      1. mentoz
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Is he a certain starter?

        1. Belli2007
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Seems to be. Started last 3

      2. pandaking
        • 11 Years

        Thanks

  6. afazeli85

    11 years, 2 months ago

    Need serious votes of confidence here lads.

    This is my current team http://i.imgur.com/R2JtyZg.png

    Would you press the WC button if you weren't bothered about getting Aguero until Feb 7th? Or would you stick?

    If the latter, any ideas for a transfer this week? Ings?

    1. KingsKnee
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      No but I'd double on soton defence if I were you

      1. afazeli85
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Are some of them going to rise?

    2. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      No rush; Zab to Fonte will do.

  7. Evs
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    What's our early thoughts on Azpi then ?

    A couple of weeks on the sidelines or fitting fight in the blink of an eye 🙄 ?

    1. Kudo Warrior
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      With his risk of rotation, does it make sense to even keep him if he is fit? I say no.

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yep, though will be a rotation worry when fixtures build up.

    3. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'd think he'd be back. But I got rid of him in my team. Pissed me off too many times over the last few.

    4. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      He's gotta go.

    5. mentoz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Long term: He gotta go due to rotation.
      Short term: I believe he will be fit for next week.

    6. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      He has to go from my team. I've suffered long enough w him and by not having Terry.

  8. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Play Guzan or Krul next GW?

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Guzan.

  9. Keno
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    First Draft of my team on the JAN WC, thoughts please!

    Forster/Gilks
    Bertrand-Terry-Wisdom-Naylor-Hutton
    Downing-Sanchez-Hazard-Chadli-Boyd
    Kane-Aguero-Costa

    1.1 ITB. Appreciate all thoughts!

    1. Hubert
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Spot on

    2. Boyd to Sven
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Very similar to my wildcard team. Good luck!

  10. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Can have a very strong front 7 on my WC which includes costa, but a very concerning bench/defence. Shall I stick with it, or safrifice costa to spend bigger in defence?

    Panti
    Terry - Clyne - PVA
    Hazard - Sanchez - ADM - Siggy
    Costa - Kun - Kane

    Hamer -- Albrighton - Baird - Wasi

    1. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Stick for me.

    2. mentoz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'm not a big fan of Costa, I expect more from someone at his price, so I would have changed him for someone cheaper. I've set my eyes on Giroud after next GW, even though he blanked today.

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Costa to Rooney?

  11. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Biggest decision in WC will be who to hold onto

    either Siggy or Downing
    either Austin or Kane

    Leaning towards keeping Downing and Kane. What does the panel think?

    1. moz_1983
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Agreed.

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Siggy and Austin here:) Tho thinking about Kane too

    3. Keno
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I had to make the same exact decisions. I went with Downing and Kane, I am feeling good about both.

    4. Gloria Kanchelskis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping Austin and Kane makes sense to me.

      Fab is close to Costa and chaper, same goes for ADM and Rooney etc, only Sturridge to disrupt the thinking and my irrational nervousness about cheap forwards.

    5. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Do Kane and Chadli. Rate my team calculates a preference for them

    6. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, I agree.

  12. Jeremiah
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Austin or Ings? 🙂

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Ings for me at the mo.

  13. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    1) Name 2 budget defenders for WC, got 8.7. Already have Dummett, Terry and Wisdom.
    2) Would u keep Austin with Aguero and Costa as a third striker on WC or would u take Kane? Cheers, I really appreciate your insight guys

    My sister bet me a hundred pounds I couldn’t build a car out of spaghetti

      It's driving me nuts.

  15. Stupendous
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Bit different for a WC...

    Foster
    Wisdom. Terry. Bertrand
    Downing. Silva. Hazard. Sanchez
    Rooney. Kane. Aguero

    Hamer. Boydinho. 4.0. 4.0

    1. KingsKnee
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Nice

    2. Oi! Shadders!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Not really. Apart from Rooney it looks much like all the others.

  16. Game...Blouses
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Thoughts on Bellarin after city game?

    1. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Chambers could also play right back.

  17. Punty
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    RMT, anything I should change? 0.6m ITB.. on wildcard, could double up on Chelsea-def instead of Southampton def..

    Pantilimon
    Terry Clyne Bertrand
    Sterling Sánchez Silva Hazard
    Austin Agüero Kane

    Subs: Krul Chadli Wisdom Baird

    1. KingsKnee
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      It's really good. I'm quite jealous ha. Don't like krul though prefer heaton

      1. Punty
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Got money to go max 5m GK instead of Krul, worth it to get Heaton for 0.2 more?

        1. Bolivian Seaman
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          I'm going foster and krul. With pva for wisdom

            Hmm..

  18. Heydudes13
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A) Baines, Sigurdsson

    B) PVA, Di Maria

    1. Punty

      A

      A) more gametime, baines can only get better, bony's gone

      B) again exciting differentials. utd have good fixtures, pva has in form stopper behind him.

      i think B

      maybe baines chadli?

  19. KingsKnee
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Azpi and Costa to terry and aguero for -4?

    1. moz_1983
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yes.

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Don't see why not.

    3. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Might do the same moves myself.

    4. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Why get rid of Costa tho? I realize you probably can't afford both of em (w Kun), like most. You just think Aguero is that ready to go off and score boatloads while Costa will just chug along consistently?

  20. pandaking
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Gardos or PVA (Patrick van Aanholt)?

    1. KingsKnee
      • 11 Years

      Wait on alder news

      1. pandaking

          • 14 Years

          You gotta. Otherwise, you're selecting blindly.

    2. Optimus.
      • 15 Years

      I brought in PVA this gw and regret it already

    Dreading my first bootcamp session of the new year, most of today's weight loss will be via weeping and sick.

  22. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    After suffering the double Azpilicueta-Debuchy car crash this gameweek, am I now forced to wildcard considering Moore is also not playing?

    Heaton (CRY)

    Clyne (new) - Taylor (che) - Azpilicueta (swa) - Debuchy (mci) - Moore (STK)

    Downing (HUL) - Silva (ARS) - Sánchez (mci) - Eriksen (SUN) - Hazard (swa)

    Kane (SUN) - Aguero (ARS) - Austin (MUN)

    Already used my freebie on Aguero in.

    Please, guys, I would love an opinion!
