Our first delve into the members data this week sees us assess the recent displays of Sergio Aguero, Diego Costa and Olivier Giroud and take a look at the “Sherwood effect” on Christian Benteke as Villa prepare for double Gameweek 31. We also check out the form of Swansea and Tottenham’s playmakers as the fixtures turn kind for both clubs.

      Which one? 31 or 34.dgw?

      Use your wildcard.

    Anyone have some erectile disfunction jokes, because the Germans couldn't keep them down.

      Bayer (the drugs company) are specialists in making little blue pills

        Is V*iagra banned because of spam ads or because it's too rude a word?

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 16 Years

          😯 I'm guessing the latter 🙄

      Took some Viagra once, ended up with a stiff neck

  3. Teahupo'o

    Can't for the life of me understand why so many professional footballers don't know how to take a penalty.

    1. Wouter
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Exactly, sure the pressure is there but that doesn't mean you can't place a football between two sticks from 11 yards.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Its the pressure that cannot be replicated. Having said that someone of the guys that went up were like lambs to the slaugther, they had already anticipated failure before it came.

      1. Teahupo'o
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        I understand that. But, even more of a reason for them to be taught to stick with the fundamentals.

      I like them cheap

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Car?
      Flat to rent?
      Diamond mining stock?

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        I assumed prostitute.

    3. Puncheon Guly
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      It was car. Thanks for playing all.

  5. Cheeseoid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    These DGW's are starting to make things a bit interesting. I am glad they are spreading them about it will help the careful planner in the long run.

    1. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Agreed, spices things up a bit!

    2. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      If the DGWers actually score more than anyone else.

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Which is part of what makes it interesting. QPR have 2 good fixtures but is it worth risk of having anyone on top of Austin? God knows

        1. In Like Flynn.
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Phillips maybe. He is good in other games, but the scoring is different.
          I'll probably just hang on to the ones I was considering getting rid of this or next week.

          1. Cheeseoid
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            I was planning on holding onto Austin until they had their DGW. This means he can be ditched for a Giroud when Arsenal have their DGW rather than choosing between them

    3. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      It sucks for those who have their WC left like me 🙁

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Then that can only be good for the me. Sorry

    4. whitters_2014
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Btw how did you do on pointless?

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        We never got selected to go on the show. Very poor. We were just to good I guess

  6. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Re the DGW: Aston Villa have United away for their first game, and QPR have West Brom away. Is it really a good idea to invest in either team? We all know how West Brom is at home, and United have had a very impressive run of CS of late. If you have Austin, may as well keep, but I'm not getting either Villa or QPR players.

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      This.

    2. King Nil Miss ✩
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Why would you, is not like they are scoring goals or anything... 🙄

    3. Sol
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      good point, Keeping Gru Vs Liv or costa maybe ?

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Definitely more so the forwards I want to keep long term.

        1. Sol
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          nice, good luck

            Thanks you too!

  7. BeachBadger

    I seem to be out of the loop. Whats all this about extra DGWs?

      1. BeachBadger
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        CHeers Demi. Villa QPR eh? Not the most enticing then 😆

        1. Woy of the Wovers
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          It's game changing

          1. BeachBadger
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            IN that you're switching to UFPL? 😆

            1. Woy of the Wovers
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 20 days ago

              FPL is enough for me.

    1. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      GW 31 has villa v qpr in it now

      1. BeachBadger
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Cheers mate. Interesting but doubtful I'll get anyone from either team in. Good for AUstin owners I suppose

        1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Same here. If I had Austin I'd keep ofc but not really interested in buying... Eveeeentually Cpt. Phillips 😀

          1. BeachBadger
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            😆 Philips actually does interest me. He looks pretty damn good.

            1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
              • 11 Years
              11 years, 20 days ago

            Lol just saw this now. Yeah rarely out of the loop alright but amazing what can come to pass whiile you get some shut eye 😆

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Unlucky 1966 or should I say 1942 !
          Good battle in the cup, we both got a mention in the article tho last week-you see that?

      2. The Light Knight
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        I would criticise but I was about to suggest Berger

    7. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Patrick Collins.

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Played for ?

        1. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Mainly Sheffield Weds.

    8. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Cow pat. Pat on the back. Pattercake, pattercake, bakers man.

  9. AlCapwnUK
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    chances of theo getting good minutes against newcastle?

    I KNOW I should get rid...considering Siggy, or maybe going mad and getting Sinclair/Delph for the Villa double

  10. madame shelly
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    sterling & studge out for hazard & benteke ?

    yes i still havent got haz back !

    1. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I'm thinking Sturridge and Walters out for Hazard and Benteke..

  11. GK
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Giroud or Costa to go with Kun and Kane upfront?

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I got Giroud atm and he is really reliable... May switch him to Costa later...

    2. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Costa. Mosty because he doesn't have an upcoming blank but does have a DGW

      1. FF Dirtbag
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Surely that's keep giroud. Get Aguero.

        1. FF Dirtbag
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Get Aguero -> Costa.

          1. Cheeseoid
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            I thought he was trying to decide which one to buy

  12. Harvey Specter
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Is Ramsey nailed on?

    1. whitters_2014
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Nope but played two decent games

    2. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      No

    3. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Not really, although he's staking a pretty solid claim with this scoring run! I'd expect them to line up like this:

      Ospina
      Bellerin Mertesacker Koscielny Gibbs
      Ramsey Ozil
      Walcott Cazorla Sanchez
      Giroud

      1. whitters_2014
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Coq and Monreal will surely play

  13. Richd
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    I might captain Sinclair

    1. whitters_2014
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I'm considering mane!

      1. Tony Yeboah
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        and me

  14. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Bayer Lovrenkusen.

    Tee hee.

  15. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Looking more and more like Sanchez will leave my team soon.

    1. whitters_2014
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I have both Sanchez and cazorla -_- lol

    2. The Light Knight
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Hopeless tonight, still think he should have been given a rest earlier in the season

      BTW (from earlier)

        Agree he looks jaded, knight.
        No worries about earlier-I knew you were bantering and I got a bit 'serious'
        As a token of good will I offer you an invite to join the "Irish contingent" next season,
        Where abouts you based knight?

        1. whitters_2014
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          He's a Norwich fan so maybe Norfolk? Just a guess

          1. The Light Knight
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            Have family there 😉
            Surprisingly there are a couple Canaries out this way

            1. whitters_2014

              Oh haha!! That's awesome xD.

          1. The Light Knight
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            Coolio - if nothing else, I'll keep Son of a Pitch away from the bottom score.

              Haha - he posts on here sometimes, there's a nice couple of regulars in there, Doosra and old school qualified under the 'grannie' rule, don't worry I saw the birthcerts!
              Gonna expand the h2h a little next year as there's so many Irish on here knight.

              1. The Light Knight

                11 years, 20 days ago

                Hehe nice, half Plastic Paddy myself so no complaints here

                Grand job, should be a laugh.

        2. The Light Knight
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          No worries. I gratefully accept (FPL league I assume?)
          West Cork (on the main road to Killarney from the City, not coastal). Yourself?

          1. HVT
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            Yea Fpl, see the league in my link above.
            Just outside Blarney (not coastal 😉
            I'll leave an email back there.

  16. Well you know, Triffic
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Mane or Siggy? Both have great fixtures and in good form.

    1. Puncheon Guly
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I tend towards Mane on the basis that Gomis is rubbish, but Mane can make and score.

  17. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Has anyone got a logical explanation on who to choose as captain between Aguero and Kane?

    1. whitters_2014
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Ask me f

      1. whitters_2014
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Riday then do the opposite xD

    2. Fred54

      There's quite an excellent topic by Innsie about Kane being possibly out marked.

        Interesting

    Surely Fosters injury increases the desirability of QPR forwards significantly for the DGW?

    1. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I know what you're saying but Myhill is more than capable, it's the 5 defenders in front of him who have been doing the business.

      I still think QPR will dominate this game, it's starting to get desperate for them and Aussie wants an EPL contract with another side next year so will be gunning for more goals.

        Probably right. It won't hurt though

    2. Diva
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I doubt it'll have much of an impact. Myhill is a reasonable replacement and the Pulis effect shows the Baggies' defensive strength comes from their organization.

      Pulis wouldn't agree:)

    Rose or Alder? Is Naughton long term better option than Rose? Cheers

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I'd go Naughton, just. Less threat of rotation.

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Hmmm isn't Toby nailed on, same as Rose?

  20. Jeremiah
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Sanchez > Ramsey is incredibly tempting.

    His high ownership could kill me though 😀

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I don't have Sanchez for like one month now and I'm more than happy lol:)

      1. Test Eagles
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Clever manager

        1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Lol, is this ironic?:p

    2. FF Dirtbag
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Considering this but Ramsey isn't nailed on enough. Cazorla is a maybe?

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        If you could afford Ozil...

      2. Jeremiah
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Reckon Santi will be pushed out wide and Ramsey come in CDM with Coquelin.

    3. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I'd get rid of Sanchez now but it would mean taking yet another hit.

      High ownership on a failing player is for something for you to take advantage of. But as has been said many a time the Arsenal midfield is a minefield of where the points will come from.

    4. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Not nailed enough Jerry, you of all people must know this?

  21. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    If I didn't know better, I'd say this article is trying to persuade people to switch Aguero to Costa. 😕 Why mention Aguero's lack of accuracy and not Costa's, when Costa's accuracy is even lower?!

    1. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      It's the Red Top article.

  22. Ibracadabra´s Spell
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    I have Haz, Eriksen, Siggy, Giroud and Kane.

    I´m thinking Walters, Caz and Aguero >>> Mané, Silva and Costa (-4)

    Madness??

    1. FF Dirtbag
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Silva. Bit
      Meh.

      1. Ibracadabra´s Spell

        Any Suggestion??

    2. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Not madness ... quite a handsome transfer IMHO

      1. Ibracadabra´s Spell
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Ok, thanks mate. 🙂

    3. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      I think it's insane to sell Aguero... As for Walters and Caz, u can let them go...

      1. Ibracadabra´s Spell
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Maybe but everybody has Aguero and Costa too but a little less and he is cheaper and has DGW soon.

        I can´t bring Mané and Silva in without selling Kun it´s risky but I have to do it.

        1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Hm I see... Well maybe I'm wrong, but everyone has Aguero in my mini league and I cannot afford to sell him even if I wanted to. Follow your gut 😀

          1. Ibracadabra´s Spell
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            I understand, let´s see, good luck for you and I will follow my gut and see what happens, thanks. 🙂

  24. Ser Football 42

    Hart
    Alderweireld. Cresswell. Ivan. Kelly. Upson
    Ozil. Hazard. Silva. Sinclair. Gibson
    Aguero. Kane. Sturridge

    Any suggestions for this lot?

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Sturridge ➡ Giroud/Benteke

      I'll be doing a similar move.

    Terry, Clyne, Dawson, Hutton, Vergini

    2FT, 0.5 in bank

    Recommendations for who to get in for Hutton & Vergini?

    1. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Why sell Hutton now?

      1. Jimjam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Benched for Bacuna?

        1. Woy of the Wovers

          Who? what?!

          No reason to suggest that. He was suspended that is all

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      At the price, Naughton looks good.

    3. Bibelnissen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Keep Hutton for two weeks. No need to sort out Vergini just yet as your other four has excellent fixtures.

  27. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    11 years, 20 days ago

    Aguero - Costa comparison

    Without giving member stats away...

    No matter how you cut it, over the last 2, 4 or 6 gameweeks, Aguero has had more shots and a greater shot accuracy, so why the bias slant on Costa as the better prospect of the two in the article, Paul?

    1. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Chelsea as a club playing better, easier fixtures, more fixtures, less fragile

      also started getting booked less.

      unfortunately rarely good for an assist and rarely gets BAPs

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        read "playing better" as playing less poorly..Chelsea been a little flat last two matches (PSG and Soton)

      2. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        Playing better surely equals creating more chances?? Ok, you could argue better chances.

        Tbh, neither striker is firing on all cylinders. Both have been very wasteful of chances in the last 4 weeks.

        1. sinik
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          yeah definitely..I think City is just on a spiral..I wouldn't be VERY VERY surprised if they found themselves in danger of falling out of top 4..

          and with both failing to fire on all cylinders, you'd surely want the cheaper one with more fixtures to come, no? unless of course you can afford both..

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            West Brom at home should be really interesting. A 0-0 or worse and it'll be increased pressure on Pellegrini.

            1. sinik
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 20 days ago

              would love a 0-0 as I'm thinking of Aguero > Costa (waiting to see what all DGWs get confirmed this week) and would keep Clichy for one more week

  28. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Get in Giroud or Benteke this week?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      Might Arsenal be a little flat after coming so close?

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        I was thinking the same.

        They gave it their all.

  29. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 20 days ago

    Missed the match....I was surprised they didn't start Ramsey with Caz as they needed three goals...When did he come on ?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 20 days ago

      73rd minute, I think. Looked really lively.

      To be fair Arsenal were brilliant and pinning Monaco in and sweeping up cleared balls. Couldn't fault any of their players. Sanchez perhaps looked a little jaded - gave the ball away a lot forcing passes, but then, he always has done that.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 20 days ago

        They're playing some good stuff...How many have they lost in the last ten ?...I can only think of the Monaco home leg off the top of my head...

        1. whitters_2014
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 20 days ago

          Spurs too, arsenal in good form Liverpool are in better form

          1. Dr Dream
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 20 days ago

            The game has shifted and I'm still on triple City....mmmm...

      2. whitters_2014
        • 11 Years

        Yeah I agree with this just a shame it wasn't closed out.
