Our Sunday delve into the members data arrives once again this evening. We cast an analytical eye over Tottenham’s goalscoring playmaker, Palace’s in-form frontman and the Magpies’ flourishing Frenchman, whilst the worrying form of Villa’s misfiring target man and United’s skipper give cause for concern.
Anyone else got a wildcard blocker?
I have Bojan, no way hell make my wc but i aint dropping him for QPR so he is a blocker. This (and Baines and Coleman this week) have helpped me stay off the trigger, could be a useful strategy 😉
How nailed on is Cameron (stoke)?
Why did he only play 5 min?
2nd choice rb, 3rd/4th choice cm, 4th choice cb
Came on as a sub, tactical
i struggle to see how whelan is ahead of him..
Bardsley is back.
Impressions of ADM this Gameweek.
Am looking for thoughts on ADM. How did he look? What was his position. Set piece? Is he worth it/ did he look threatening in the end..
I wild carded him in because I feel he may heat up and also because I like United fixtures but am left feeling disappointed.looked a load better in a deeper role, could easily have had couple of assists though, im still likely to cap him this week (I dont currently own Sanchez)
Adm > Sanchez (c)
🙂 cant afford in one move and besides only got adm last week, too stubborn to let go already
This 😀
I'm toying bringing him in just for this one week then re-assess on my WC
I don't think LVG tactics are helping although when he went 4-4-2 he was far better so hopefully LVG will stick with that
Is Elia playing OOP or just very advanced?
The latter I think.
Just on the wings i think
1FT what's better? (WC in 24).
Clichy > Kosc or Clyne
Or
Chadli > Puncheon
Clichy to Kosc, probably. Goal threat from set pieces too.
Does Clichy really have rotation threat from Kolo week to week or was it just for congested Xmas fixtures?
I think Clichy is preferred now but that means Kolorov is likely to get the easier games.
The defensive transfer. Get Kos.
Cheers Walsh. Have not had a sot defender all season!
According to FFF Siggy will drop tonight and Jones might rise.
Anybody else think different?Henderson might rise too.
Henderson or Elia
pls no ellia
Could use some advice on this. Currently have:
Forster / Guzan
Clyne, Wisdom, Bertrand, Dummett, Zabaleta
Fabregas, Sigurdsson, Hazard, Chadli, Sanchez
Costa, Austin, Kane
Looking to work Aguero back in.
Austin > Aguero
Sigurdsson > ???
Zabaleta > ???
Having two free transfers making these changes would put me on -4 points. Use the WC or not?
Making the two changes leaves me with 9.2m needing 1 midfielder and 1 defender. Any suggestions?
Bellerin and Ward-Prowse?
I was just looking at Bellerin. Although he may well end up just being back up, is he likely to get lots of playing time? I know debuchy is injured but what about chambers?
Ward-Prowse would be too many players from southampton also
Zab > Kosc
Sigs > Puncheon
Then WC next GW and sort out getting Kun.
Sunderland have conceded 92 goals attempts in their last 4 matches. Signs don't look good if they keep giving the opposition that number of chances.
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/2265/Lots of save points for Panti! 😉
Wouldn't double up though.I have PvA ... didn't realise Sunderland were that porous! Foster over Panti, though.
37 points this week 20k down to 35k, absolutely awful! Anyone else hit the wildcard button?
Yep. 35 points and dropped 14k to 23k
I overtook you 😉 ... with the benefit of my WC though
20 pts this week....dropped from 5k to 16k 😀
I'll wildcard on the 31st though
still another game to go come on Everton, deffo due a good one
Is it REALLY necessary to have the African Cup Of Nations every year??
lol
It's every other year I think
Is it? Lol I feel like every year I gotta transfer out all the good African players out
Ya. Ya. It is!
It's not every year.
Lol dang sure feels like it
agreed with OP. and yes it feels like every year.
it's every other year? should be every 4 years imo.This....or at least have it during the summer or something
It was two years in a row 2012 and 2013 i think, but now they sorted it and they'll have it every odd year if I'm not mistaking.
Pellegrini just upvoted you
Ok that's why I'm thinking its every year....
even if Bony, City would've still lost 😆
It's every other year.
Used to be in even years from 1968 to 2012, but then changed to odd years from 2013 so as not to be in the same year as the World Cup.
Just got rid of Siggy on WC. Thanks for all the memories, pal. 🙁
I can't seem to push that button 🙁 Had him since GW1!
Same here. Do think it's time to move on though....Plus he will probably drop a little more, won't be too difficult getting him back if necessary.
True true.
Good move. Swans in freefall.
Closest ML rival got 75 points this week and had elia 1st sub, outrageous.
My first WC draft last week had Hazard, Sanchez, ADM, Puncheon, Elia! I would've benched Elia so downgraded to JWP.
Any problems?
Pantilimon - Hamer
Ivanovic - Bertrand - Wisdom - Bellerin - Baird
Sanchez - Hazard - Downing - Chadli - Ward-Prowse
Aguero - Costa - Kane
is boring a problem?
Far from it.
Haha, just worrying about not having Costa. Probs still gonna go with Fabregas instead though.
Speaking of ACON, has Obi Mikel left?
Retired no?
Could be. They won it last time. Moses also.
Maybe Nigeria didn't qualify?
sadly for Chelsea he hasnt. Nigeria didnt make it.
Nigeria didn't qualify.
Oh wow
So trying to pick between johnson and elia for siggy. Probably tonight to avoid the price drop. Leaning towards johnson, any who disagree?
no.. did the same move
Cool. His schedule is pretty tasty, so if he looks might keep for the wc
One week punt by the way
Elia in that case.
Burnley seem to be haemorrhaging goals at the minute though. I know it sounds silly but elia didn't do a great deal other than score a deflected goal and one that should have been saved
True. But he's getting in advanced positions. But it's only a one week punt so it could work out.
elia-fixture form and double price rise
One guy in one of my MLs captained Gayle. Not even a Palace fan. Serious flair.
Better change this week before wildcard next gameweek?
A) Cresswell -> Kosc
B) Silva -> ADMAAAAAAAA
I could do either and I'm doing A
I could do Downing to ADM and still doing A.
A
Thanks all
The more I tinker and look at different combinations the less I know. This is going to be a long two weeks 🙂 But fun!
yet another reaon to wait till next week, less time to screw it up 🙂
Touche!
It's a curse, I tell ya! I don't want to know how much time I spent tinkering on my WC last week 😕
Where all this pts come from? My GW rank is awful. it is just Costa right...? If you don't have him your week is bad?
Pretty much. Plus all the dead teams who have him (c) pretty much set the average
i aint got him but am on 57 -4 with Baines and Coleman to go 🙂
20 pts checking in (no Costa)
ouch that is unlucky, cant see wisdom saving your gameweek either
Lol I'm not even expecting anything... 0pts at best
Chelsea def, Eriksen, west ham def, downing
30 points here
Don't have Eriksen, any Hammer, or the notorious Costa
Hazard Austin out
Costa Elia in
For a hit
yay or nay
Big nay
Not worth a hit. Wait a week on Elia and see if he's the real deal.
He may have tweaked his hammy a tad as well. I'm not sure on that, so don't quote me on it. Just thought I heard the announcer mention something to that effect when Elia was subbed off the other day. He could have been talking about another player or God knows what. I wasn't 100% focused on what he was saying. Anyways, I'll try to research that.
Can't say I heard anything. He was never likely to get 90 minutes... Koeman is increasing his pitch time and fitness. Has a lot of pedigree if he gets his act together with the Saints.
That was really enlightening 🙂
Probably my worst post ever. Should have just put a cap on it.
can find no trace
I was considering the same move, but there doesn't appear to be much confidence in Elia maintaining his current form in these parts.
Also, there could be injuries to other players in Cup matches between now and the game-week deadline.
Help a man out, I'm really really struggling!
Begovic Foster
Terry Fonte Wisdom Van Aanholt Duff
Sanchez Hazard **** **** Boyd
Aguero Costa Kane
12.5 to spend on the two ****£12.5m is a lot to spend on 2 pieces of ****
we've been here before-pls see my previous answer @20 minutes ago
Duff appears to have lost his spot, probably for good.
Puncheon and Chadli, I guess.
1 week punt before WC.
A) Hart -->> De Gea
B) Silva -->> Cazola
C) Chadli -->> Johnson/ElliaA
Leicester did rip United to shreds last time they played, doesn't worry you?
That was one bad game, since then their defensive record has actually been very good. I don't think there's a case to say that Leicester are great against United in general
No. That said, I'd probably go for Ospina for a one week GK punt instead.
Yeah was considering Ospina too. Cheers
not sure what to do. i kinda hate my team and hope they all die of feline AIDS, but on the other hand, it's not that bad:
panti (BUR)
naylor (sou) terry (MANC) baines (cry)
hazard (MANC) sanchez(avl) chadli(wba) silva(che)
aguero (che) kane (wba) austin (sto)
subs guzan siggy yun hutton 1.5 ITB
were i to WC, i'd probably ship most of them. playing for fun now as my dreams of being the champion of gibraltar have been dashed against, i guess, a big giant f*$#%n rock.
shud i just ship siggy and bench silva, get a new defender or hit the button and rejuvenate these dessicated husks?WC
yup-its fun....
Your teams actually not in that bad shape. Just move on Siggy for a 1 week punt then WC
if them all dying of feline aids is a possibility i think you need to reveiw your christmas party plans
Sounds really strange, but I'm not worried at all for not having Man Utd cover for next GW. More worried for not having any Saints.
Yeah I was pretty set on keeping AdM for a little in hopes that his class would outshine LvG's inability to get the best out of him but I am now not so sure. May just go without United altogether too.
Saints attacking? Who are you thinking....I'm debating between Di Maria or a Saints attacker in for Siggy
No, I would rather have Saints defence. I owned Tadic and Pelle for a while, but thinking to get Clyne or Bertrand. In your case, I'd go for ADM.
Ah oh thanks....I'm waiting still, but thanks will consider
yes-on principle i dont play rags,not difficult...
Anyone else looking at Ward-Prowse over Boyd?
Or any thoughts on this?
Isn't nailed enough imo
boyd the untouchable
JWP-talented but rotatableFrom below:
Thats my concern, however he does look promising. Had Boyd at the start of the season and got frustrated so I shipped him. Relucantant to get back but it may be the only choice for my plan.Considered colback? Same price as JWP, super nailed on and on corners
No....Boyd is Gawd
I have JWP as my 5th mid. Averaging 4 points per game for 4.8m ... no-one touches that around that price or close to that price.
This
Only thing preventing me from going for him is the concern I have over his long term place in the team. They just have sooo many midfielders now and even though they are mostly all hurt, I don't think he is in their first choice xi when everyone is available.
Even if he doesn't start, I think the worst case scenario is he'll be utilised as a sub and score at least 1pt every game. More often than not a 5th mid scores 2pts, so worth the (small) risk imo.
I still think he'll see as much pitch time as Oscar does for Chelsea.
oops, posted in a new comment. My bad.
If u can afford the extra .1 then it's a no brainer imo.
Cheers all.

Anyone on a WC considering Sterling?
Nah other better options currently.
Liverpool's remaining fixtures look very poor.
I may have to bring santi in!
Costacostacosta
I bit the bullet and got him, tail tucked firmly between my legs
who does FFix say is rising and falling? looks like only Siggy and Jove dropping
