Spurs duo Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen arrive under analysis in our first members piece of the week. Watford’s budget frontman, Arsene Wenger’s dilemma up front and Leicester’s out-of-position Ghanaian are also on our radar after impressive weekend showings.
-
Richards&Costa to Van Dijk&Bony(C) for a hit?
-
Seems reasonable!
-
yes
-
Who are your other Def 1st?
-
Would have to play Dawson vs Leicester and I know Vardy, Mahrez will score. Dawson fixture change so have to bench him in coming weeks
-
Personally I would play Dawson and take stock next week, so just Costa to Bony, but I perfer Kane
-
-
-
-
Season long which two do you prefer?
A) VvD and Ayew
B) Monreal and Mahrez
I think on paper B looks a lot better points wise but i think as its season long they are also more risky in terms of starts (Gibbs to randomly come back in for example) and then just the Tinkerman. Thoughts?-
b
-
I like B
-
A I think..
-
Both if possible!!
-
B.
-
B
-
-
Fabianski and Whittaker to De Gea and who? Rest of my defence is Bellerin, Dawson, Darmian and Richards.
-
Will Bony start in Saturday if Silva is back?
Hart
Zab Kompany Otamindi Kolarov
Yaya Ferandinho
Naval KdB Silva
Sterling-
I doubt Bony will start if Silva will be in..Maybe Sterling will play up front
-
If bony doesn't play when Kun is out and against Norwich, then he should really go back to Swans
-
-
Probably will start. But he might not get 90 mins.
-
Surely Navas will be the one to drop out?
-
He'll start. Sterling will play over Navas
-
Yea, more than likely . Navas has been on exceptional form the last few games (unfortunate to miss out in the Derby)
There's a bit of doubt for me that's putting me off getting him-
Im having doubt also, it might also be hard to be sure when right time for Kun, gw13 he might play and be subbed so you get little from Bony and/or Aguero in that match
-
-
I think Silva comes on as a sub with Sevilla game midweek
-
-
2ft, 2m in the bank
Butand
Azpi, Kolarov, Dawson
Sanchez, KDB, Ayew, Mahrez
Costa, Pelle, Vardy
Schmeichel, Richards, Francis, Westwood
A. Costa to Bony or Lukaku?
B. Ayew or Westwood to Mane? -
Play Evans or Vardy? Not as silly as it sounds right? Or log off?
-
come on man....Vardy's scored in 7 straight games
-
-
Who do you prefer over next 3-4 weeks?
Kolorov or VVD? Leading my mini league by a small margin and most have Kolorov!.-
VvD
-
Kolarov for me
-
VVD
-
VVD
-
Kola
-
Kolarov
-
-
Who is better for the next week?
A- Lukaku
B- Bony
C- Kane-
Bony
-
Kane
-
Costa > Kane ?
-
-
-
I was thinking Bony but I'm having doubts he'll start if Silva is back
-
28 million striker benched when there is no other striker?doesn't make sense right?
-
You'd think so, Mental. He probably will but I have a nagging doubt. BOU apart he has been awful
-
i would say aguero also has been awful before newcastle.he was out for a long time so he needs some time to regain the swans form and imo he's better than a lot of people think here
-
-
-
-
I have seen this question so many times, just glad I will have all 3, but Kane if one
-
Just this week Kane
-
This, after that his fixtures aren't so impressive
-
-
-
So it seems the Bertrand love has ended. And the new bandwagon is Paul van dyke...
-
berty firmly holding his spot in my team.
-
Van dyke is firmly in my essential mix now...
-
Lol. I like it ^^
-
-
-
I have Cedric but van Ds goal threat is too good to ignore IMO
-
If i ever ever have 2fts with nothing to do Bert to him would be my move
-
Paul Van Dyk, there's a name. Loved that guy.
-
-
Who to bench from this lot?
Payet,mane,mahrez,sanchez,kdb
vardy,pelle,bony
(AOA chip burnt)-
Pelle
-
Or Vardy.
-
Actually def not Vardy.
Pelle or Mahrez. But you have yourself in a right pickle. -
surely can't bench pelle against burnmouth?maybe vardy or mahrez?
-
Vardy is on fire. I would not bench him.
-
-
-
Against Bournemouth?! Bit early in the day to be drinking mate! 😉
-
-
Mahrez
-
Maherez ( see my essay below, thinking this way too!)
-
that's my thinking also.Cheers
-
-
Mahrez
-
-
Bench points and benching dilemmas.
I never usually have this problem as i play 3-4-3 with a Boyd/Westwood/ Drinkwater as my 5th mid.
As i am new to this problem maybe i am reading it wrong?
-If i bench my 5th mid who is 'good', someone like Maherez and he scores points and my 4 playing mids do too its no problem.
- If I bench Maherez and he scores while one of my mids dont yes this is annoying but the scoring player is still in my squad
- With possible rotation/ injury/ bans having a good 5th mid in place is useful
- My own natural reaction to having a Maherez as 5th mid is ' then why bother having him?'. This would make sense with Aguero fit and or Costa firing but with all this cash flying around why not ride with a strong front 8?
I have no answer to this but just interested in others thoughts.-
Im trying to justify this by the way-
Sanchez/ KDB/ Ozil/ Mata/ Maherez
Vardy/ Lukaku/ Pelle
with a firm eye on Mata to Payet if LVG keeps messing around with his pitch time -
I always go 343 with a cheap mid and my head was turned with extra Wguero cash. Now it just grieves benching dilemmas.
I'm going back to a cheap mid ASAP in prep for Segio's return-
True. I m never usually in this situation but may go this way until Aguero is back
-
-
-
Who is the best captain option out of...
Kdb
Or
Kane...
Thanks-
Probably Kane
-
Kane as he has pens. And i fancy Spurs to destroy villa.
-
-
Harry
-
You're a wizard
-
-
Kane
-
Wow...thought you'd all say kdb!
-
-
-
I thought my captains were disaster this year and then I checked the stats:
Agüero (6 times - 74 points - average 12.3 points)
Rooney (2 times - 14 points - average 7 points)
Vardy (1 times - 10 points - average 10 points)
Costa (1 times - 24 points - average 24 points) -
Take a punt on Lukaku/Kane or just keep Ighalo?
-
Take a punt
Short term Kane
Longer term Trolkaku -
Hi Don.
Kane has to be a supe captain choice this week mate. Go with him.-
I like to take into account the 'week after' syndrome. Rarely will a player follow up on a hat-trick.
-
Lukaku has played every single game of this Season ...
-
-
-
keep.
-
Tough one. Ighalo is a good formation enabler but id just end up benching him most weeks
-
I'm keeping for now.
-
-
Sterling in 3-5-2 or
Kane/Luaku in 3-4-3?-
343
-
B
-
B
-
Thanks chaps.
Interesting, I was really tempted by sterling potentially playing up front against Norwich. Obviously no love for that here though...-
I'm definitely keeping Sterling for the next two games.
-

"I'd have to opt for worse"
Oops!

Rate my team please guys

Need Help!! My current team
Begovic Butland
Francis Cresswell Monreal Kolarov Gomez**
Payet Mahrez Sanchez KBD Yaya**
Pelle Vardy Ighalo
0.4 ITB with 1 FT
Who should I bring for Gomez and Yaya?
I plan to do Gomez--> Rojo (want Man U coverage) and Yaya --> Barkley/Mane ==> -4 Pts
Any comments is appreciated!! Thanks-
I would hold Yaya and just sort Gomez. Man u nice but not worth a hit imo
-
Keep Yaya. Not worth the hit.
-
-
One piece of advice I'd offer is to be wary of how you're spreading your leftover Aguero cash around, especially if you don't have a WC.
If you spread that extra 4-6m over too many players you may find it too hard to get him back in once he's *fit again.
*I use that term lightly, I know he has glass ankles and cheesestrings for hamstrings.-
Very true. Too easy to get 4 defenders in the 5.5 range now. Hard to release that money. A Pelle/ Lukaku/ Kane to Aguero with one mid downgrade much easier
-
mine will be a nice and easy bony,pelle to ighalo and aguero
-
-
Sod it! I’m taking a hit again, but it’s going to give me a defence that I think is very strong for this week.
Myhill (Butland)
Kolarov - Bellerin - van Dijk (Moreno - Francis)
Sanchez - KdB - Payet - Mane - Mahrez
Pelle - Vardy (Ighalo)
Azpi & Richards are gone!
I obviously won’t be pushing any button until after tonight’s C1C-
I was too itchy and got VvD yday. Couldnt stand not transferring anyone for a week and a half 🙂
Good team, a few players different only. I will AoA-
Cheers mate! Yeah, he was banker of a signing this week, but I'm taking a punt on Kolarov for the next couple of weeks (minimum), on the basis that I feel he'll outscore Azpi significantly
*crosses fingers *-
I absolutely have to agree with you. My defense at the moment is looking ok, but i was thinking of shipping Cresswell for Kola, but that means i cant get DDG for Butland next week
-
I'm glad someone does. Most people will talk you out of a hit, but sometimes I think it's worth taking the risk. Got to play your own game!
-
-
-
-
-
2ft, 2m in the bank
Butand
Azpi, Kolarov, Dawson
Sanchez, KDB, Ayew, Mahrez
Costa, Pelle, Vardy
Schmeichel, Richards, Francis, Westwood
A. Costa + Westwood to Lukaku + Mane
B. Costa + Ayew to Lukaku + Mane
C. Costa + Ayew to Ighalo + Mane leaving me 6.8m in the bank and can do Vardy to Aguero when he's back-
A or B. I transferred out Westwood last GW. Still have Ayew though. Gonna bench him this week.
-
-
Costa & Ayew -------------> Kane & De Bryune for (-4) ??????????
-
Don't ditch Ayew, he has some good fixtures coming up
-
No. Keep Ayew
-
-
With clean sheets back in fashion this season is 4-4-2 or even 4-5-1 the way to go?
-
3-4-3 fpl heaven 😉
-
Nooooooo... CS are not completely back in fashion. I always prefer to go heavy inn attack
-
-
Just blown my own trumpet lol, what a great team 🙂
Myhill
Janmaat Cedric Monreal
Mata Mane Payet Sanchez
Lukaku Kane Bony
McCarthy Cabaye Richards Gomez-
Not as great as mine.
-
🙂
-
-
Not too shabby
-
Really nice Team
I have to choose one from your front 3 .... Who do you think is the best option?-
Kane imo
-
-
-
Start Fabianski or Butland?
-
Butland.
-
But
-
-
Captain for GW11
Sanchez
KDB
Lukaku ( Never cap never bench right) ?
Pelle ( same as above) ?
Payet-
i would go pelle,they can win 5 or 6 easily
-
So could City
-
i can see kdb rested after 60 mins
-
-
-
Pelle I suppose.
-
I'm going Pelle
-
Tough one, isn't it? i think you may be right including Pelle in the NCNB pile.

Hey Doos. Thoughts on Ighalo -> Kane (C) this week for a FT?
Will wildcard in two weeks-
Top, top move, imho. 😀
-
Cheers!
-
-
-
I am going for Sterling 😀
-
Fair enough. I think my Father-in-Law is too ...
-
Well who doesn't like £ ?
-
-
Or him! I'm doomed
-
-
Don't have him!
-
Neither do I, just yet ... 😀
-
-
-
-
What does this numbers mean?
-
They are the teams' HOME and away ratings, for Pasqua's ticker ...
-
got it, thanks.
-
How can CHE have such high scores then? Is it based on previous seasons too?
-
Last 38 matches
-
Yes it is - although last season's scores become much less relevant as time goes on.
-
Yes, indeed. To be precise, 28/38 of last Season, plus the 10 games of this. So always the last 38 games.
-
Now I got it! Thanks!
-
-
-
Much obliged. Looks like Bony > Kane > Pelle for the armband (if going for a forward).
-
Not sure about Bony, and I may well sell Pellé:
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/11091/
You would think I'd learn, after Agüero, but no ... ! 😆 😉-
Don't you worry that Sakho will be rested or/and Bournemouth will continue being themselves?
-
Don't sell him. You're mad!
-
Doosra, can I ask why you are consider Pelle out for Kane as opposed to Sakho? Is it purely down to freeing up more funds?
-
-
Thanks. Am torn between Pelle or Lukaku out for Kane this week. The latter continues to frustrate and can see Sunderland shutting up shop next game.
-
-
-
-
-
-
Bigger the tastier
-
That's what she said
-
-
-
-
-
-
Pelle
-
Thanks all and thanks Doos for tables. I think I will put the armband on Pelle. For now...
-
Good luck! 🙂
-
This
-
-
-
Bony or Lukaku? both have good fixtures for the next 2 weeks
Bony - Norwich, Villa
Lukaku - Sunderland, West Ham-
Norwich & Villa are much easier than Sunderland and West Ham
-
I'm aware of that, but I'm not sure if i can trust him
-
Well Bony has better players behind him.
-
-
-
Bony for the next two, Lukaku long term.
-
bony
-
Tempted by Bony, can we trust he playes 80+ minutes next 2?
-
-
Well Lukaku didn't score against Norwich yesterday, so what does it mean? 😉
-
-
News about Costa? Tnx.
-
He is being replaced by Kane 😉
-
🙂 I`m going with Lukaku probably... But I must take a hit for this:(
-
Yeh it will be worth it
-
-
Kane won't get a hat trick every week
-
-
-
Mourinho's comment on Costa's injury "How did the injury happen? I think he punched himself." Queer thing to sya but made my decision whether to buy him a bit easier.
-
Popular midfieders have more PPG than strikers this years, is it new or is same every season?
-
always post at bottom of pages, as usual. weird
-
Most Seasons. That's why expensive forward lines are a no-no, imo.
-
