We delve into the members’ data this evening and shine a light over a number of pertinent stats from the Gameweek 36 fixtures. Arsenal’s misfiring frontman, City’s raiding left-back, Eden Hazard’s drop in attacking threat and Tom Cleverley’s recent improvement are all on our midweek radar.
Hendo
My worries are Hazard doing a 20 minute cameo
Hazard? Its brave but he's definitely going off the boil and big rotation risk for this week
My thoughts entirely as the post above. He is owned big time and I am top of mini league.
RISK!!!!!!You might find Jose makes the call for you anyway. its just that, as you said with Hendo, the risk is a 1 point appearance from the bench
You are right but I will be sick as a dog if he plays and fires. You made my mind up Vardy/Defoe and bench Haz.
It seems the general consensus is that Haz is expendable if it means you can get it Sanchez. I have the exact for Haz -> Sanchez giving me:
Davis, Hamer,
Ivan, Skrtel, PVA, Dawson, Naughton
Eriksen, Puncheon, Sanchez, Ramsey, Cazorla
Benteke, Kane, Kun
Anything else I can do with not cash or FT left? I guess Puncheon -> Larsson or Gomez for a hit isn't a bad punt, although being up agaisnt the two form sides for their DGW, I can't see major Sunderland returns.
ThanksI know I will regret it but my feelings same as yours. On top of that I will be forced to use ft next week bringing someone back.
I would consider Eriksen to Santi and Play Hazard with puncheon on the bench! Then you have haz for his final GW explosion at home after a rest!
Already got Santi!
Could downgrade Ivan to a £4.9m defender and then upgrade Eriksen to Sanchez for a hit.
Hello!
Which one you see better as a better for points potential?
a)
gw37 Gomez (Vardy benched)
gw38 Mahrez/Albrighton
b)
gw37 Defoe
gw38 Vardy/UlloaWe are all thinking alike. Next minute an injury to a key player and stuck with Defoe for GW38
Chances of Costa playing again before the end of the season?
It's not looking good but wait until Friday
Not like Mourinho will tell us..
Ta
In the last game, maybe. He needs an op, and if they weren't going to give him a run out I suspect he'd have had it already.
He doesn't need an op
I doubt Mourinho would risk it. I don't see the point unless he's had some cast iron assurances that Costa won't re aggravate the injury.
Got Benteke in last week as a differential for my rivals, what to do this week (already got sanchez, kosc, pva, panti for dgw):
A: Benteke + Henderson ---> Giroud + Sunderland MID
B: Fabregas ---> Ramsey
C: Fabs + Kane ---> Sunderland MID + GiroufA and C require a hit
B
B. I think there's a high chance that the Sunderland mids will only get you 2 extra points over the DGW and you won't really want them for GW 38.
B
easy, B.
Think I'm doing hazard to Ramsey this week then back to hazard for the final week. Will leave me with 4 dgw players.
Pretty boring I know, or option b would be jags to PVA and hendo to Ramsey?
Morning DZ! 🙂
Morning FF.
Quick question. Is Ozil > Ramsey for free madness?Yes. Show me your team. I'll recommend something else
Pants
Ivan, PVA, Berty
Haz, Alexis, Ozil, Gomez
Aguero, Giroud, Kane
Subs: Boyd, Moreno, Wasi
1FT, 0.7 banked.
Kane/Aguero to Sunderland striker, now thats a punt.
He already has 3 Sunderland
I'd save the transfer this week. If you're feeling punty Berty to Kolarov sounds good
What about Haz > Gerrard?
Not for me - a better option might be Boyd -> Mahrez with Hazard on your bench
I feel like saving is a waste with only 2 weeks left.
See what I suggested above. sun,QPR for Mahrez.
You could probably use the 2 tranfers better next week for good punts/match ups or maybe berty to Kolorav or skrtel? Skrtel more nailed and due a goal and Kolorav on fire!
I would look for better cover GW38
Good morning TFF.....I'm sure your not getting much sleep as #2 overall and a free tranfer up the sleeve!! Good luck and thanks for all the input this season you freak. 🙂
Thank you so much mate - Yep it's a nervous wait for me! 🙂
Ultimate under the radar DGW picks? Has to be Welbeck doesn't it? But will it be Giroud owners cursing his return or those of Ramsey or Cazorla?
Boo, Koscielny didn't rise last night and his target % dropped! Could have given myself more thinking time
More thinking time - but you would probably still have done the transfer anyway.
True.
is there any way in the world that hazard > Sunderland mid for free makes sense? which mid?
You're a week too late my friend - Gomez.
No 🙂 Sunderland is poor and Hazard will 100% play last game and also I can see him playing this one too
cheers
6 dgwers locked in.
Use a freebie for either:
a Hazza->Stevie Me
b Benteks->Kane
It's a season-defining decision as I'm only 4 in front of Christina and need to make ground on Torres Tragic.Im thinking A.
I'd prob do A
Cheers Aqua-Conc 😉
Will probably bag a hatful at home to CPL.BTW I thought of that move a week ago 😉
B if you really need to gamble.
If you only have 1 FT, then keep for the final, lottery GW.
*looks at shiny axe....
Thoughts? 🙂
Ospina
Ivanovic, PvA, Skrtel
Sanchez(C), Hazard, Silva, Henderson
Aguero, Benteke, Kane
Schemeichel, Alderweirald, Grealish, McShane
Hazard ----> Ramsey for free?Ramsay is essential imo this week so yes.
Ospina or Pants?
Ospina
ospina for sure
Pants and get your third arsenal elsewhere
Thanks both
Has to be Ospina.
thanks!
No problem Moin. 🙂
Pants to allow 3 ARS attacking players.
this. Which attacking player is the real question.
Need to bring in Sanchez and can only do that with a -4:
Pants (Krul)
Ivan*/Terry/Kosc (Toby/Haidara)
Haz*/Silva/Rambo/Coutinho (Boyd)
Kun/Vardy/Kane
In addition to Haz --> Sanchez I think Ivan out is best but to who? Don't really want to get PVA coz have Pants already. Need a DEF below 5.6 so I can get Tekkers in for Kane for GW 38
Thanks guysthe flair move would be kolorov
No need to pre plan about GW 38 - Kolarov might be a decent shout
thanks guys
No problem. 🙂
worth doing Kane --> Gru for a hit to cover my rival this week?
driving me mentalHow many points in it?
30-odd
I am in the exact same boat.
I have to take a hit to get him in and only have a 24pt lead. Not sure what to do or bring in Kos for free instead.fwiw i'm thinking of leaving guru out..there's something unsporting about these covering transfers
Agreed though it does make you feel a bit more comfortable.
My rival and I have 7 of the same players too.
Terry PvA - Sanchez Hazard Ozil - Kun Kane.
Probably not
I decided against it in the end and brought Koscielny in for free. One reason was that IF (and to be honest I'm not counting on it) he gets a clean sheet that is the same as 1 goal. The -4 is another goal. Therefore you'd need Giroud to score at least 3 to be worthwhile.
Plus it would have meant hazard or silva and Kane out.
Now you can offset some of that because with the -4 I would have also got a 5th dgw player (Gomez) so might still regret it but I thought I'd keep my points.
I feel much more relaxed now I've done the transfer
Just don't get it why Demi gets more votes than I. He basically copied my team and Janmaat 😀 LOL!
but big thanks to all of you who voted!
and I'm getting beaten by an Ape 😀
I have a FT and can't decide how to use it
Pants Myhill
Terry Skrtel Clyne Hutton Duff
Sanchez Ozil Hazard Hendo Boyd
Aguero Kane Giroud
Thinking of Clyne to Kos and dropping Giroud to cover rival but I think that's daft
Any suggestions? Maybe PVA in but unsure of double Sunderland defenceHazard/Hendo to Gomez.
Cheers mate
Good luck chasing #1Thank you Concrete 🙂
Does the world number 1 post here?
Sometimes
I think he does. I'm #2 and I'm a regular on here
Nice one mate! I know its a bit cheeky just while i have caught you what would u do with this team
Guzan
Terry PVa Skrtl
Haz Sanchez Silva Hendo
Aguero Kane Giroud
Krul Boyd Clyne Duff
0 in the bank and 1ft.
Stuck on whether to do clyne > bellerin or haz > ramsey.
CheersThank you - No problem.
Hazard to Arsenal mid of your choice. It's a toss up reallyThanks buddy.
No problem. 🙂
Nice talking to the big guns. Well done.
Thank you Smeggs! 🙂
No. Just the no 2. That's why we all want no 2 to win.
Thank you Jafa. 🙂
Good luck TF
Thank you Nabil! And congrats on being ranked #1 in Thailand! 🙂
*Malaysia 😉 thanks anyway
Oops, sorry
Best keep your transfers top secret 😉
They are secret to me as of now as well - I keep coming up with a different idea every day haha 🙂
Kos(c)?
Hey Tina. What would you do if you were in my position?
Go big or go home I say.
Not sure what your team is, but I'm assuming most(including no 1) will go Sanchez(c).
So be different.This! but don't captain a defender..
Yeah, it leaves you with only 2 viable options I think...
Thanks for the advice. 🙂
Enjoy the moment.
Get drunk
Take it on the chin
Pray 😉
and go for a captain punt.
Hello #2 from #7,345 (from Australia)...
..and Hello to all on the Scout - good luck for the end of the season!Thank you so much - means a lot 🙂
Yes
I'm No.1 in my ML where only I play 😛
Any SWGers I can take a hit for? My rival will surely take 2 or 3 hits but I am thinking I could take one which gets me a player for GW37 & 38. Who comes to mind? Kane to Cisse?
Giroud and Henderson
or
Ramsey and 7.1M striker ? 🙂Ramsey + 7.1m I would think. Perhaps Kane or Defoe? I might do Vardy > Giroud but still undecided.
keep Vardy 🙂 They have QPR in last GW 😉
Thanks. I also have Kane! Tough decisions! I might drop Haz and bring in Ramsey for an FT. That gives me Rambo+Ozil+Alexis.
I think Ramsey and Kane or Remy if you need a major punt!
Sanchez, Ozil, van Aanholt, Ospina... Boring but enough for the DGW without any hits?
yeah, take a hit, get Fletcher in
Enough 🙂 I am not even sure I am goona play PvA who is on my bench ...
Do you have any FT? I would use it on Ozil -> RamseyI'm sorry but this makes no sense at all
I am gonna play him in the end but I have strange feeling Sunderland will concede big against Arsenal 🙂
But a cleansheet against Leicester could happen.
yes it could but Leicester are the best team in PL in last 6 games 🙂
Ozil is my preferred choice.. I got him in recently when I could have got Ramsey. Hopefully a bit of a differential..
I don't have any FT unfortunately, if I did I'd be tempted on Ospina and Benteke -> Panti and Giroud for -4 but for -8 it seems too much..!
I'm the same, 3 Arsenal and 1 Sunderland and would need hits to get more.
I'm coming to the conclusion that it's not worth it.
Think about it like this, whoever you bring in for Sunderland has two out of three very tough games....Arsenal and Chelsea. For example I wouldn't remove any Leicester players to put in a SUN, as LEI have QPR at home on the last day. ulloa (c) ?!
Play Eriksen or Skrtel?
If you still own Eriksen, surely this is the week to play him?
He's been disappointing in the last couple of weeks. And I also have Kane but if Liverpool get a clean sheet I'll miss out on that. I don't know what to do???
Go with Eriksen imo
I tell you my opinion if ya vote me.
Erik
TFF, Will you start your quizzes again when the season ends and after you finish Celebrating your FPL win?
*makes note not to log onto FFS during off season
hahaha..We all know you will log on...
😛
Haha yes I'll be on here during pre season - hopefully I find the time to host the quizzes again 🙂
all the Dz regulars will be here pre season, last year was active because of the World Cup, this years its gonna be really dead..
Pre Season is my favorite time on here. Love the discussions and how the pages move slowly 🙂
3 ARS - check
3 SUN - check
No hits taken.
Bring it on.Nice!
3 Arsenal, No Sunderland..That's risky. Remember the DGW pattern - QPR, AVL, LEI, HUL. 😉
Got a feeling the only return Sunderland players will give are the Strikers, don't have room for one at the moment..
Pick 1 lads:
A) Ozil > Rambo
B) Haz > Gerrard
C) Both (-4)
D) NeitherBoyd -> Mahrez, bench Hazard.
Madness! I smell a 1-0 SUN.
Unlikely. Then has QPR at home in GW 38 as well.
Why unlikely? If SUN win they pretty much stay up.
Leicester in the form of their lives - surely you've got to fancy them to score.
They are away to a team who will park the bus in their own stadium for points.
Parking the bus with Coates,Cattermole and Brown as the drivers doesn't inspire me with much confidence 😛
Beat Everton away 2-0
Leicester's attack much more lethal these days than Everton's
And don't forget - Leicester aren't safe yet too
Mahrez doesn't inspire me with confidence though. 2 flukey goals against a shite Gazzaniga last week.
Okay lemme think of something else then 🙂
D or Haz > Rambo if you insist
Already 3 ARS and 3 SUN.
ouch. Then D
He already has 3 Arsenal
Protecting a mini-league lead.
Rival doesn't have Sanchez or Giroud so should I do Giroud to Defoe and Sterling to Sanchez (c) for a -4?
Is Rooney able to play this weekend?
Current team for DGW is shaping up like this:
Pants
Terry Kos PvA
Sanchez Ozil Hazard Silva
Kun Kane Vardy
Myhill - Boyd Bertrand Yun
Worth upgrading Boyd (6.9 mill to spend) for a hit to start over Hazard? Have a 24 pt lead in a cash MLnope
I'd say yes - for Gomez.
Gomez would probably be the only option hey. Though how sure are we Hazard won't feature?
Even if he does, his stats and Chelsea's attacking stats are on the decline.
Thanks for the food for thought. Will definitely consider this
Hazard ->
A) Cazorla
B) Ramsey
C) Özil
Would love read ffs article comparing those options.
B (I have C though)
A from the lot. But tbh i'd keep Haz, and that's what I'm doing
I'm not but will probably bring him back for last gw.
Waste of a precious FT imo. Can you get another ARS but not losing Haz?
Ram
Not too much between them. I wish I had an answer 🙁
Thanks all!
Any changes needed or save transfer?
Schmeichel
Skrtel PvA Ivanovic
Sanchez c Özil Silva Henderson
Giroud Kun Vardy
Myhill Terry Cambiasso McShane
9 years, 1 month agoMy team with 1ft
Panti (Myhill)
PVA Terry Kosi (Bertrand Huth)
Siva Haz Rambo Sanchez Hendo
Kun Kane (Vardy)
I want to get Defoe for Vardy with exact money. Defoe price rise soon.
BUT if I get Defoe who do I bench?
