We delve into the data from the previous Gameweek this evening and analyse a number of impressive recent performers. Palace, Arsenal, Liverpool and United midfielders arrive on our radar and, with one eye already on double Gameweek 34, we also turn our attentions to a trio of in-form centre-halves. Elsewhere, the malaise of Tottenham’s main men is also investigated.
Aguero or Murray for captain? quick vote
Agüero
Aguero
kun kun kun kun kun kun
what they said
Aguero
whoever shoot the most
Murray it is then
Aguero
No brainer decision by FFS standards...so 2 points incoming.Aguero
Just realised I still have my WC.
Show off
Ah its not that necessary anyway. Plan to load up on Leicester and Hull? 😉
Hay, I'm going with 3 LEI. Don't give him/us that look.
Team needs a bit of freshening up. And I'm getting Schlupp and Schmeichel
high five
Shameless repost.
Who to bench this week - Clyne or Mane?mane - out of form big time
im playing clyne mane toby 😀 that really sums what i want the result to be Sot 1-0 Mane
Aah I see. I'd wish for a Mane hat-trick if I were you 😀
Still, you haven;t answered the question 😉I have no idea because im playing both a difficult decision .
Do you have any other soton defender ?Nope
i'm forced to play both...would bench Mane if i could. Chance of a 1 point cameo too high.
In the same opinion. cheers all of you
Will Cisse go straight back into Newcastle's team come gwk 36?
No wonder. Should be. Ignore for now
No , do not think so coming back from a long injury .
It would better if newcastle started preserving their players from now for next season .He isn't injured though. Just serving his ban.
😯 thought he was injured just like every other newcastle players . yea i remember now that spit fiasco
He should do. Just realised he's now only 5.2m 😯 he's going to be a bargain next season with a new manager at the helm
I think so, Newcastle need to do something differently...
Is Chelsea vs United going to be a shut-off ? I think united shud make it 1-2 after all we have filoshofee
1-0 Chelsea or 0-0
Naah mate
Chelsea will park bus, without their top scorer around, they cant rely on remy who is untested
I think so. filoshofee is finally working but then this is Maureen. She even shut down a title-chasing, Suarez-carried LIV last season. I expect a low-scoring game
Fellaini is a battering ram. No team can park the bus against United anymore.
close. don't see a clean sheet for Chelsea but this is the sort of game Mourinho loves. Chelsea to grind out a result. 2-1 to Chelsea.
I wish I had Suarez to captain for the double...
2 posts about Suarez at the same moment 😀

Play Terry (MUN) or Schlupp (SWA)?
Terry easy
😯 Terry definitely.
RMWCT (please)
K. Davis (Schmeichel)
JT-Bertie-Baines (Schlupp, PVA)
Silva-Hazard-Bolasie-Eriksen (Phillips)
Aguero-Kane-Giroud
Eriksen will probably turn into one of Coutinho/Henderson/Sterling next week, but who to get instead of Giroud? Murray? Vardy? I'm so lost right now.
Cesc should get in there at some point I reckon.Nice side. Keep calm.
nice team and structure.
Go with both imo. Giroud can wait.
Erik -> Fab and you're doneboth Murray and Vardy?
i am getting vardy and murray.
Selling Kane and going with Kun-Murray-Vardy? Takes some balls.
that's what I am doing. Ranked 24K. I've been taking risks all season, not going to stop now.
yep together with Kun
no Liverpool yet? I am on WC and have three and benching them this week.Are you WCing this week?
I am WCing this week, but I don't see who I'd rly want from Liverpool apart from one of Coutinho/Sterling/Henderson. Sturridge? not with that price tag.
i have mignolet/ henderson/ sterling. I have two che defenders and hazard.
Mané does his best at being a wally. Do you think Koeman has had enough of his antics? He seems the only direct source of goals for the Saints. Pelle cant seem to hit a barn door.
If Remy is out, would you...
A) Take a hit for Murray
B) Play BoydPlay Boyd
B
B
Shocked by this, but thanks all!
you know it's a wrong one when it's the majority pick! 😆
Any Siggy owners left out there?
Gomis being out doesn't bode well in my eyes...worth ditching?Im keeping this week then losing on WC. Not being on pens was the nail in the coffin for me if ship next week for Hendo if i was you
I'm contemplating Siggy ---> Puncheon this week?
Problem is I have two WBA defenders!?Not a bad shout either tbh. I think with the amount of blanks there are always going to attackers v defs in our teams
Yeah can see that happening a fair bit this week like you say......
Which transfer do you prefer this week?
a.) Siggy -----> Punch
b.) C Dawson ---> MorganProbably B. Looks better long term too
Do you ever look at a cup opponent and think I am just not going to win this?
Yes, and they're usually the ones you end up winning
Gone with Lukaku over Murray.
Form suggests its a mistake, but I just have a hunch that Lukaku is gonna bag a brace at the weekend. Three double figures in a row for Murray surely isn't sustainable, and with so much expectation, this is the week he blanks. At least thats what I'm telling myself, whilst rocking back and forwards.i'd rather go with the promiseland that is Murray
Rather than the desolate wasteland of instant regret that is Lukaku.😀
I've been caught up in my minileagues for playing too safe. I know I'll be the only one with Lukaku, so either I've been pushed to madness, or this is the masterstroke that puts me back in the lead.if you have a WC, Lukaku could be a punt that pays off I guess. Wouldn't want him stinking up my squad for more than 1 GW. He scores points when no one owns him - simple as.
Otherwise, I would get Murray since he has 2 great home games in a row.Yeah, I'm on WC next week. I wouldn't have gone near him otherwise. I also noticed Campbell is probably available for Palace, which could eat into Murray's pitch time?
On current form Murray should still get more minutes, but I agree Campbell could affect his game time. But form is form. Very likely to get some returns.
Thing is Lukaku is so fresh from an injury and we all know how he plays like when not match fit...just a blumbering buffoon with the first touch of an elephant.I'll take him blundering into a couple of Baines crosses, and putting it in the top corner when he was trying to control it!
well now that you put it that way....he might be a good pick 😆
made it slightttly more tempting for me given I have drafted Baines in 😯
that's the view of the land. We have the view from the top 😉
fwiw I'm going with Murray before WC next week. Don't really trust players after long injury except for Ramsey.and Silva. I've done research before - Silva hits the ground running after any injury.
Seriously? Good to know. Although he has a good FPL Histroy, I've never held him so long like nowadays. Used to be that assist the assister type a la Modric. Maybe because Nasri is so useless now and Yaya is finally slowing down.
same, have owned him for brief moments over the season. Thought it would be more of the same this season so I sold him for Sanchez when we saw the early line ups against Leicester - regret ever since! Big mistake.
gtg lads?
Davis K
Clyne Wollscheid Terry
Ki Sung-yueng Hazard Eriksen Mané
Kane Agüero Murray
subs: krul sanchez kosc pva....
0 ft 2.7 itbI took out Kun for Remy last week. I know right? major fail.
should I reverse the transfer for this week of brave it out with Remy?
I can WC next week.I would, regardless of news
If Remy is fit I'd keep.
But since you got WC it's a sensible move. Unless you have any other pressing matter.I need a GK too! I'm not WC till 34
Best players to get for GW 34 DGW ?
Hazard 🙂
3x Chelsea
Migs and Raheem for LIV
And probably Vardy up front
Thats me anyway.only 1 midfielder from Liverpool? Does the away record scare you off?
3 from Liverpool, those fixtures...
Sturridge
Sterling/Henderson/Coutinho
Skrtel/Moreno/Migs
.
2/3 from Chelsea
Remy? - If Costa is out for both, and Remy is fit.
Hazard/Fabregas
Ivan/Terry
.
+ Nugent/Vardy (optional)I have Terry Schlupp Hazard Coutinho Vardy. Thinking of getting Fab, Sterling and skrtel for 8 dgw players.
I am going for 3 Liv, 2 Chelsea, rather than other way round
3 CHE
3 LIV
3 LEI
2 MCI
2 ARS on the bench
Call me crazy.
Best song of the year thus far...Discuss
Actually, anything off either of those albums. I'll stick my neck out and say Kendrick's album in particular is one of the best of the last 20 years.
I don't know who Kendrick is, but he's made me realise that modern music is completely alien to me. I suddenly feel old.
Kendrick Lamar, and his new album is one of the greatest hip hop records ever.
Don't worry, my favourite artists ever are people/bands like Radiohead, Pixies, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Kraftwerk et al. At 23, I can't live completely in a previous era though 😉Blimey, and I really hated his song above!
_
Now that's better 🙂It's actually a very politically conscious and racially motivated album, King Kunta maybe isn't the best example (though it's about Kunta Kinte):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunta_Kinte
He's certainly not in the same category as the other ubiquitous garbage you hear, he's a very special musician and lyricist.
If you like those you may like Peter Hammill / VDGG - brilliant but an acquired taste if you haven't come across him/them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5y0GZPtJRM
Muse are all bluster and no soul for me. Quite the reverse of Radiohead.kendrick album is overhyped trash and i'm a massive hip-hop fan
I'd wait for the latest Muse album
*Vomit* 😉
I'm pretty old around this area but still have that rock/metal/electronica in me 😉
Radiohead are my favourite band so early Muse seemed like a pale imitation, then they disappeared up their own backsides with prog-esque stuff. They are pretty good live though.
Radiohead is at the legendary status. Muse imo may have past it but could still be kickin'. They are not necessarily Radiohead copycat since they have their own sound/identity. Yep their live shows were always awesome. I even went one when they came to my backyard i.e Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Remy or Vardy for DGW?
both if Remy is fit
That would mean -8 though. -4 for one of the above with Kun/Murray
WC34: Kane or Bentekke?
Benteke but means you'd have to go Ozil/Ramsey over Sanchez which im not fond of
Not for me. Could still have Sanchez, Ramsey and Giroud.
Jeeez what your TV
Remy --> Murray
or
Boyd --> Boyd?*Boyd --> Bolasie
Here is how I'm lining up this week .
I have 1 midfield slot to fill.
WC next week so looking for a good option even if only for just this week, common sense says get Hazard but i expect a low scoring game and I keep getting drawn towards Puncheon, or should I go Baines in a 4 man defence?
Schmiechel
Clyne Ward Rose
Silva Fab Boyd **Sanchez**
Kane Murray Aguero
Bench doesnt play
Suggestions must welcome..
Who is your punt this week?Remy Gonna play next Match v.s MANU ?
Have to wait for press conf.
If you could have any defender from Liverpool apart from Skrtel, who'd you get?
Moreno but would rather Mignolet over him
I would actually go Lovern, cheap will start and goes up for corners
Wank Player
Agree, but ....if skirtle or moreno gets a cleanie so does he, and is just as likely to score imo
I'm getting Mignolet.
Moreno
Mignolet Panti combo to see out the season FTW
I'm struggling to understand the Fabregas hype. Do we really expect big scores from him against United, Arsenal and Leicester? I wouldn't be surprised by him scoring 3,2,3...
Anyone else think Leicester might sneak a clean sheet with Gomis out this weekend?
Chance increased, but I wouldn't bet on it.
It could well be the last game on Motd!
Stoke - Southampton
Very true! Got to be under 1.5 goals in that game!
There is a strong possibility but I still fancy the Swans to score without him
Would you get in Vardy over Murray this week?
Asking because the predicted price rise for Vardy will screw next weeks WC plan.If it screws you price wise then yes.
If there was no other contributing factors, then I would go for Murray.I have Skrtel and Sterling in my WC draft. Could replace them with Moreno/Coutinho to sort things out. Ideally I want the former, pluss Vardy up front.
Which combo would you prefer (only thinking about this GW)
A) Baines, Bolasie, Remy
B) Zabaleta, Boyd, MurrayB
A
A
A if Remy is fit. Would prefer Murray over him though.
Yep, this
RvP to replace Young/Fellaini? Harsh but a possibility?
I can't imagine even Van Gaal will do it right now, the backlash against him would be strong (and it would be unbelievably stupid, which he isn't).
0% chance of that happening.
Please no.
Young is in as good a form as he has been for 3 years.
Maybe as a sub instead of Falcao, definitely won't startYoung and Fellaini have been outstanding. That won't happen imo. RVP will be restricted to sub appearances.
I never thought a movie could be so bad that I would physically squirm, and then I saw, 'The Room'.
Thanks Doolittle.You're very welcome! As you're a fellow Londoner, I recommend you keep an eye out for screenings of it here:
http://www.princecharlescinema.com/
They usually have one or two a year, I've been to a couple there, and you get to meet Wiseau (his answers to questions are even more mind blowing than the film). It's similar to Rocky Horror screenings, people bring footballs and throw spoons at the screen (as there are unexplained spoon pictures in frames throughout the film).
I'm torn. Which one? 1FT 0.4 ITB.
A) Austin > Vardy (Free)
B) PvA > Schlupp (Free)
C) Austin + Sanchez > Bolasie and Aguero (-4)
My current team:
Krul
Baird Baines Clyne Ivanovic
Fabregas Mane Silva Hazard (VC)
Kane Murray (C)
----------------------
Bench: Lloris, Austin, Sanchez, PvA.
