Ramsey or Giroud for next week?
I know Ramsey is in fine form but how did Giroud look last night?oh god i always feel embarrassed to have the top post ðŸ™
Relish it, I say! It's a wonderful thing!
Don't be, it was a good question - I wanted to know about how Giroud played tonight too - and thank you to The Enlightener for an answer.
Giroud was relatively anonymous. Whatever impact he had, it wasn't very obvious. I don't know. Maybe some of his movement opened up space for other players here and there, but that's about it.
So Ramsey is pretty much essential now it seems? Would you go without Giroud and take an Arsenal defender for the Dgw?
Fabregas & Sterling -> Sanchez & Cazorla for free sound good?
0.1 short of being able to get Ramsey ðŸ™take a hit and take Ramsey.
Cazorla plays very deepCant afford him unfortunately
After Sanchez saved my week as my captain, I'm left with the following dilemma:
A) Giroud and Sterling to Benteke and Ozil (-4)
B) Austin and Sterling to Benteke and Mirallas (-4)
C) Giroud to Benteke
Any thoughts?right because taking a -4 on a dgw player is so wise. I'm doing
kane to Benteke
I'm finally back ahead of that cheeky fecker who started one week after me!
🙂 Me too, Mull! But dropped 500 places! ðŸ™
That's Innsie's best mate!

Yet another new post
this one on end game strategyYou've got a lot to say tonight Triggerlips. 🙂 I was trying to work out how to create a Benteke Aguero Giroud front line and maybe Hazard is the answer... Worth playing around with options for sure.
I have that frontline and Hazard. Took me a couple of hits mind
Ospina Myhill
Terry Bertrand PvA Skrtel Wasi
Hazard Sanchez Ramsey Sterling Boyd
Aguero Benteke Kane
Skrtel -> Stones for my FT?Thinking of Merte and Ozil as differentials
For the rest of the season
A) Cazorla Silva
B( Ramsey Fab
C) Ramsey Coutinhoc
C
Morning all, 11 points behind in my draft league. Would you save the transfer here (0.1m in the bank)?
Myhill / Panti
Terry / Skrtle / Bellerin / Schlupp / Bruce
Ozil / Hazard / Hendo / Coutinho / Mahrez
Benteke / Aguero / Giroudsave or lose a LIV. Probably Hendo
Who for, only 0.1m in the bank (6.9m to spend) and can't see anyone I want
Larsson/Gomez in preparation for DGW? Mane (if not injured) is still a good pick imo.
If you're not convinced then save is probably the way to go.
Remy + Sterling + Ivan -> Giroud + Ramsey + Kolarov (-4) worth the hit ? 0 itB
Sets me up nicely for the dgw, and gives me 3 city and 3 arsenal at home this weekendClichy could come back in
This is a concern... But QPR at home just seems a game primed for a kolarov explosion. think clichy may just get a late sub appearance
Good moves, assuming you already got the man - Alexis.
Yep, I have the little magician 🙂
Howdy DZ.
Still can't believe I ended up with a red arrow after having a 250 place green arrow just last night. Crazy. Top 1K slipping away.
How'd you all go?Very small green, up 230 odd places. Still hovering at the 15k mark
Nice mate, a greens a green
Hey there NickofOz. Unlucky with your ARS player pick - plus LIV players have really let us down. Can't wait to get rid of 'em.
Initially I had 33 place green arrow on Snday; dropped 4 places after last night's game. Still a green arrow so I'm happy.Hey Nabil!
Yeah was gutted to see Arsenal concede. Agreed.
Wow nice mate - great week for you (and great season, infact!)
I know points went to Ramsey, but who actually liked more threatening between him and Ozil?
Need to pick oneLooked*
Ramsey.
Someone mentioned that Rambo is a better player to own when ARS are playing away, but Ozil is the guy to have in home games since ARS will play the passing game more. So with 3 home games out of 4, Ozil looks a good candidate.
But personally I still think Rambo is a better FPL to own, regardless.Cheers nabil. Looks like I'll be getting Ramsey then.
Now to decide on a defender
a) sanchez, vardy, 5.1 defender (vlaar or Brom defender)
b) gomez, benteke, koscielnyA
cool i think vardy has a slight chance or getting close to benteke. Could have scored 2 against newcastle.
A
thanks for the help. You always reply to my queries. Thanks again
haha, coincidence. only in DZ btw. no prob.
is it time to lose Hazard? I can see he will be rested. Looking to free up space to accomodate Ramsey + Benteke.
Personally I don't think he will be tested. Chelsea will probably go more attacking now and they have a week between each game. Plenty of chance for rest and hazard always wants to play
Morning everyone. A little undecided on what transfers to be doing in preparation for the DGW.
Chasing my ML by exactly 20 points.
Rival - Sanchez, Ramsey, Giroud
Me - Ramsey and Sanchez in this week.
My question, how important is getting Giroud for the DGW? My options:
A) Sanchez, Ozil, Ramsey (-4)
B) Sanchez, Ramsey, Kosc (No hit)
C) Sanchez, Ramsey, Giroud (-4)Id go with A
all good options. I'd prefer an extra attacker
seriously considering A here.
Interesting. So all you lads aren't pro-Giroud?
if i wanted giroud it would cost me 4pts or lose kun, im thinking the trifector of mids will do well and form is lacking for la la la laa Giroud.
e2a funds and pool players being part of the midfeild problem for me, wanted stirling to ramsey for this week but .1 short. 🙠one poolie this week is one to many.
I'd go A Ozil is a different animal at home with Swans and Sunderland next two I think he could outscore Giroud easily
Is Zouma worth a punt.? (Need to downgrade skirtel to afford arsenal mids)
nope
Probably not. Get a defender who plays
Definitely not. How much money do you have to spend?
4.6.
Morgan maybe?
Annoyed that I'm 0.1 short of doing Hendo & Sterling -> Ozil & Sanchez, so what would you do?
Panti Kasper
JT Ivan Skrtel PVA Duff
Haz Rambo Sterling Hendo Albrighton
Kun Benteke Vardy
2 FTs, 4.9 itb
A. Sterling -> Sanchez; save another FT
B. Skrtel & Sterling -> Kos & Sanchez (Vardy -> Wickham next week)
C. Skrtel, Sterling & Vardy -> Wasi, Sanchez & Giroud (-4)
D. Skrtel, Sterling & Hendo -> Dawson(4.8), Ozil & Sanchez (-4) (Vardy -> Wickham next week)
taB looks good
Indeed. But tbh I'd prefer an extra attacker ðŸ™
A If your set on getting triple attack.
B if your keen to go arsenal defenderleaning towards A actually, but who would be your pick - Ozil or Giroud?
B looks good. you were so close in making that awesome move! No plans on Giroud? A is also another possibility and you can consider more options next week!
tbh I'm making plans for Giroud. So if I do B I'll be maxed out ARS and Giroud can't come in. A is sensible but boy how I wish to get an extra ARS this week!
If I had the choice now I wouldnt have gone for Giroud. Ramsey, Sanchez and an Arsenal def sounds tempting enough. Ya I know what you meant by wanting another Arsenal.
I would go for B as I would prefer double Arsenal MF than Giroud tbh.
C for me, done a similar move
At last, a C. 😀
Congrats to you and Team India. Just not meant to be us.
Thanks La Roja and all for the replies
C
Worth doing Fabregas + Bertrand -> Sanchez + Wasi now?? (2FT)
Davis
Terry Skrtel Schlupp
Sánchez Mata Sterling Hazard
Aguero Giroud Kane
Gilks Duff Gutiérrez Bruce
2 FT and 1.6 ITB
Trading Mata, Sterling & Kane for Ramsey, Countinho & Benteke
a) Yes
b) NoA
Bringing in Sanchez and Ramsey but need a defender downgrade.
A. Ivan out (6.3 to spend)
B. Skrtel out (4.5 to spend)
Terry - Ivan - Skrtel - PvA - DuffHow much is Kolarov? If he's at 6.3 I'd get him for Ivan if not then Skrtel to Morgan maybe
We have the exact same D 😯
fwiw I'm ditching Skrtel from the lot, Dawson is my pickI'm assuming you have giroud, otherwise get Koscielny.
Vlaar, Jagielka or Morgan could be handy?Skrtel to Morgan
Kane, Sterling, Coutinho, Skrtel & Terry - > Benteke, Sanchez, Ramsey, Stones and Wasilewski.
For a - 16. Mini league is wrapped up and just outside the top 1k. Might sound like madness but i dont see the Liverpool lads getting another above 2pts this week, ramsey, sanchez and benteke could easily score huge points again, and stones and was are possible clean sheets.
Feels like an end of season gamble which could actually pay off. I would be taking points hits next week anyway, so why not take the rank drop this week then make it back during the double?
Genius or madness...It actually looks good. But would you put off the Coutinho -> Ramsey move for a week? All these moves seem to be chasing points from the past few weeks, but there's a chance they will still earn you a lot more in the coming weeks.
With your OR it would be better if you took a -8/12 hit instead of such a drastic hit. And I do see Chelsea keeping it tight and Terry playing.It looks like chasing now, but I was looking at these moves before last night's game. I woke up this morning and checked the scores and was so irritated to see sanchez and ramsey mopping up. The price rises that they will get is forcing my hand.
I see Terry playing but i think Chelsea will open up a bit now as mourinho let's them off the leash, which is why I want to keep hazard.
I guess the way I see it is there is a lot of potential to recoup the points this week with benteke and arsenal having great fixtures, and it gets me ahead of the curve again. Playing cautiously hasn't worked so well for me the last couple of months. Its my desire to get a 3 digit finish against my desire to just have a bit of end of season fun (with the potential for gains!)Ya the moves actually looks nice tbh. I don't think Chelsea will open up tbh. They haven't been playing the best and without Costa back in the team, I don't see them free scoring from now till the end of the season
Yeah Benteke and Arsenal seems like a perfect move in my opinion. I understand what you mean, and if you think it would pay off go for it!
Big risk big reward eh 🙂
or a huge drop in the ranking (But let's not go there :P)
Hey DZers, would love some advice or comments on my moves
Ospina (Schmechiel)
Schlupp Terry Alder (PVA Skrtel)
Alexis Hazard Cou Sterling (Phillips)
Vardy Aguero Giroud
Is it madness if I made these changes for a single hit? (Already have 3 Arsenal for the DGW) OR should I just do the vardy move and downgrade sterling to a Sunderland MF?
Sterling -> Grealish
Coutinho -> Silva
Vardy -> Benteke
Thanks!Vardy > Benteke will suffice but I'd be tempted to lose the Liverpool contingent also ... they've been awful!
Rather than Grealish maybe Gomez for a cheeky penalty take?Thanks man! I have 2 FT so I can do 2 without taking a hit. I'm planning to keep Coutinho for another week and get rid of Sterling
Do you think any other Sunderland MF are better off?Larsson is very punty I suppose, but there's no-one there setting the world on fire.
Wickham could be a great differential in the forward line though.I would be maxing out my frontline with Giroud Benteke and Kun. No plans to get Wickham. He did briliiantly for me last year and I'll never forget that but for this year nah.. There are better options. Do you think Silva is worth a hit against QPR? He looked lively against Tottenham
Silva is as good a midfielder as you can get, especially for that price. He seems to suit the lone forward set-up playing in the hole behind Aguero, since they've moved back to that they've been winning again.
Yeap but if I get Silva I would have to sacrifice a Sunderland DGW player and get Grealish instead. Plus it would require a -4.
If you were me would you do that or just play safe and use my 2 FT and get a Sunderland MF and Benteke instead?He also looked good against Spurs, they have relegated QPR next, he's not one I wouldn't want this week.
Yeah exactly.. But I'm no too sure of him long term though.
Home games against QPR and Southampton with Swansea away are decent to me.
Not madness imo. I'm actually considering Grealish for the run in too.
wait, you;re my LMS rival. Just do the Vardy move 😉I'm thinking of going for 4 in the DGW. Not a big fan of Sunderland and the sight of Grealish is more tempting than any Sunderland players.
Would have to get rid of 2 players for the Vardy move to work. Don't worry about LMS, I'll be out soon enough 🙂FAir point. 5 for me most probably - Panti & PVA already in.
Haha, LMS would a bonus to an overachieving season for me too. Good luck mate!Yeah 4-5 will be the number everyone here would be going for. I'm not chasing anything so I don't mind actually sticking with that number. A mistake I did during the WC was that I should have gotten Panti instead of Ospina and an Arsenal defender instead. Oh well
Yeah I agree! I expected myself to get knocked out in the LMS a long time ago! Good luck to you man! Hopefully you win it! (If I get knocked out soon enough)
Definitely do those moves. Grealish is a nice pick till the end of the season too
Silva is worth the hit? That's all I'm thinking atm. I'm willing not to take a hit and just make the Grealish and Benteke move
Ah, I didn't realise. Its a close one, but Coutinho is in form, and Silva has dropped off massively the last few weeks.
I'd probably hold Coutinho in that case. Has decent fixtures and much better goal threat than Silva.Alright thanks man! Just that the Silva option vs QPR sounds tasty even with Kun. Yeah I couldn't make 3 transfers without taking a hit eh 🙂 Would you go for Grealish or a Sunderland MF though. I have Phillips as my other bench option.
I'd go for Grealish. Sunderland midfielders are woeful to a man. Grealish and Villa are on fire, expect him to keep assisting Benteke.
Silva us a tough one and it's easy for me to say as I have him. But i wouldnt be surprised if Coutinho outscored him from now till the end of the season. Don't think he's worth a hit.Okay thanks for the advice man! Good luck to you with your moves! Hope it pays off! Yeah I like the sight of Grealish in a Villa team that is hungry to do well. Plus I could rotate Grealish and Phillips as and when needed.
0.1m short of doing Hazard and Sterling to Sanchez & Ramsey ðŸ™
Biggest decision I have to make is for my last Arsenal slot.
Already have Alexis and pretty set on Ramsey.
Boils down to:
A) Ozil
B) KoscielnyNo Giroud?
Three mids might be overkill ... on the off chance they fail you'll have a terrible looking midfield.
I'd go Koscielny from those twoThe problem with 3 mids is if the United game is tight you are expecting them to all click at the same time against Swansea, Liverpool's mids showed in their double that it's not easy.
The perfect balance imo is defender, mid and striker but the points potential of the midfield is high so is hard to ignore, Giroud did nothing yesterdsy but with 3 home games out of 4 he will be a different animal, he's a flat track bully at best up against mid table teams, essential IMO.
Biggest conundrum fro many.
Add C) Giroud to that, please. I'm not writing him off yetI prefer these two to him I think, so not considering him for my team.
Never fan of 3 mids from same team
GruIt's all about points. Positions don't really matter this late in the season. 3 weeks left.
Ok so don't put all your eggs in one basket then.
Kos or Gru are safer options imoBut 3 ARS is putting your eggs in the same basket no?
Gru, Kos, Ozil.. it doesn't matter which you pick. Just trying to select the one who will score the most pts over the last 4 games.thoughts on ramseys knock? wenger doesnt think its too bad, but im still not convinced
Not exactly. U have benteke etc as options up front..but there are not many options in midfield
Benteke is in hot for but so was Glen Murray.
His goals to shots is not sustainable.
The only game I can see a CS for Arsenal is on the final day against WBA.
So why consider Kosc if someone can afford an Arsenal mid for his last slot ?against swans is a good chance for cs too...
True I think..
So that makes it (at best) 9 + 2 + 2 + 9 = 22 over the next four..
Do you think that Ramsey or Ozil will score less than that ?
Did Santi look like scoring yesterday?
No, but great vision for the assist. Could have had a couple more assists too.
Plays pretty deep nowadays, but on PKs and some corners.Cheers, Acqua.
Had a great week, 80 (-4) went up into 13k from 23k
Been struggling for weeks, my rival has been sensational and himself gone from 130k to 11k since GW26 so been up against a force of nature, watched a lead turn into a chase and after Sat it was a big chase due to Benteke, Leicester double defence and Coutinho, luckily Myhill, Dawson, Silva and Sanchez came to the rescue.
Bring on next week.Done well mate, have chill pill and sort next week out
I need 2 mate, Sanchez was getting me hyper!
Had to do my transfers since I had exact cash
Myhill
Cawson Wasi JT
Sanchez Rambo Silva Hazard
Gru Kane Kun(c)
Migs Wolly Clyne Sameobi
0 FT & no money ITB
Protecting a lead so template it is 🙂aah, so you did Skrtel -> Wasi. Contemplating the same move, please help a brother out above 😉
Looking good with that MF. I sense a high scoring week for you! Wasi over Clyne?
Based on their scores for the season, and the last few week's form what you expect the following players to cost next year:
1) Giroud (8.0)
2) Benteke (8.5)
3) Rooney (9.0)
4) Aguero (12.0)
5) Kane (9.5)1) 9m
2)9m
3) 10m
4) 12.5m
5) agreed8.0
8.0
10
12.5
10I think that seems about right.
I don't see how Giroud could go from 8.5 to 8, considering his form this year. I'd say he'll be 9.0. Same for Benteke.
Rooney maybe 9.5 considering he's done decently well when playing up top.9.0
9.0
still 10.5
still 12.0
8.5
Haz will be at least 11.0 though9.5
9.0
9.5
12.0
10.0Imagine if they classed Rooney as a midfielder...
no way
He's been there for more than 50% of their games this year. I don't think they would but he'd be a steal if they then get a decent CAM and move him forward again.
Its not as preposterous as it sounds, but they probably wouldn't do it just because everyone would have him in
1) Giroud (9.0)
2) Benteke (9.0)
3) Rooney (10.0)
4) Aguero (12.5)
5) Kane (10.5)All wrong imo sorry.
1) 9.5
2) 9
3) 10.5
4) 12.5
5) 10.5
Where to go from here?
Schmeichel, Pants
Ivan, Bertrand, Moreno, PVA, Wasilewski
Alexis, Hazard, Sterling, Coutinho, Boyd
Aguero, Kane, Vardy
2.5m, 2 frees.
Open to all suggestions, cheers.Moreno & Sterling > Koscielny / Bellerin & Ramsey / Alexis
Double Alexis!? 😯
Acqua?
Vardy to Bentekke
Moreno to Vlaar
Next week:
Boyd to Gomez tbc
Sterling to Ramsey
Had a massive week and am now only 3 points behind in my minileague after falling over 120 points behind a couple of months ago. Any advice from here?
Mignolet / Hamer
Van Aanholt / Terry / SKRTEL / Wollscheid / Hutton
Sanchez / Ramsey / MATA / Hazard / C. Sanchez
KANE / VARDY / Aguero
1FT, 0.6 in the bank. I've capitalised the players who are my candidates for change but open to any suggestions.
