We delve into the data this evening in our first members article of the week. Watford, Man City and Everton’s strikers arrive under analysis, whilst we also assess United and Newcastle’s attacks before casting an eye over a couple of defensive differentials from City and Liverpool.
Cedric, Azpi, Kolarov (Nyom, Huth)
Looking to improve this back line.
1. Azpi -> Smalling
2. Kolarov -> Smalling
3. Huth -> Moreno
4. Azpi/Kolarov for Rojo/Moreno/Bellerin/VVD
1.6m ITB.
which?or save? Rest of team:
Butland (Ruddy)
KDB, Sanchez, Payet, Mahrez (Wanyama)
Lukaku, Pelle, Vardysave
2
It might not be the week to make these moves as your two main doubts-Azpi and Kolorov-have decent fixtures. Hold on for a week unless Clichy is back.
Imo, the ideal D at present looks like this:
Bellerin, Dawson, Moreno, Ake and Simpson. Keeps the costs down to allow for Kun and that 5th mid.
ronda rousey or holly holm?
I don't watch that fake rubbish.
oh if real is what you're after you need to watch pro wrestling instead!
I was hoping for an angrier response. 🙂
Ronda Rousey could probably kill me in about 10 seconds so I'd go with her.haha just because im a martial art fan doesnt mean im one of those agressive macho 'just bleed' douchebags
case in point http://i.imgur.com/8rWSPVW.gif?noredirectDoink the clown to win
doink the clown is wayne rooneys great grand aunty
Need either Bellerin or Janmaat to play this GW.
Is it worth doing Saylor -> Moreno (-4) to make sure to have 3 playing defenders?
McCarthy Butland
VvD Francis Bellerin Janmaat SaylorI'm in the same boat as you. Need them to play.
They'll probably be fine.Thanks. Lets hope so.
I guess Moreno->Saylor will pay of anyway som might do it just to be safe.*Saylor->Moreno
Yea that would pay off.
Thoughts?
Cech
Clyne, Sagna, VvD
Payet, KDB, Sanchez, Mahrez
Martial, Vardy, Pelle
Subs: Hennessey, A.Ayew, Dawson, OxfordLovely jubbly, who's your early cap thoughts?
Martial? Sure you want to keep him? Sorry didn't see at first look.. Don't you want some Lukaku?
Or Benteke.
At this stage Pelle. Southampton's game play is much to quick compared to sunderland.
Mahrez or Vardy also, only problem is Watford can be very strong in defense
Martial to Lukaku. If not this week then soon. Rest is nice
Have 0.0 itb ðŸ™
Ake fella for Watford, did he come from Chelsea(loan)?
yes
Worth investing in at 4.4? Nailed?
I do not know if hes nailed, sorry!
I am considering him too
Holebas lurking
For those of us still with Martial (WBA at home this weekend)-
Is it certainly time to sell?
Can't really understand LVG in fairness..I would sell now, think you want Pelle, Vardy and Lukaku as front 3.
Have 2 of them.
Something about Lukaku that I'm not sure about.I understand, he just looks so bored during games, the fixtures are so good though.
Best Martial replacement then..
Vardy, Pelle, Martial
KDB, Alexis, Payet, Mahrez, Westwood
My other attackers..
Have 4.3m in account but maybe I need that for Aguero.Have the exact same front 8. Been thinking about Giroud or Bony lately. Still don't trust Lukaku or Kane.
Anyone worried they're spending too much in defence and tying up funds, potentially making getting Aguero back problematic?
Can afford a straight Bony > Aguero personally and I have a solid def.
made sure that will not be the case
Well, after the 50 points he gave me in his last match, I would be happy to take a hit for him, especially given the fact I have 3 hits in 4 GWs.
Yep, although, if I bring in Ighalo at the same time I bring Aguerro back and downgrade one of my strong front 8 to bench fodder, I think I can manage quite comfortably.
True but I won't be gutted if I have to take a -4 to get him in sonehow
Yup, I'm trying to find a way to get rid of Dawson to someone who is less than 4.5.
I may just pass in the short term, decent options upfront at the minute
Yes. I am torn between two choices right now.
1. Darmian to someone like Koscielny or Bellerin. This would mean having to do Sánchez to Özil and downgrade Pellè to either Ighalo or Diouf so I could get Agüero in for Bony (three transfers).
2. Darmian to Moreno. This would mean being able to do Sánchez to Özil to afford Bony to Agüero (two transfers).I like the 2nd option best. Liverpool have good fixtures after the city game and less transfers used
By the hammer of Thor those fixtures are incredible! Don't know why I was so obsessed with Koscielny, I think I'd worked out a good fixture rotation with my other four centre backs and was too obsessed with that.
Thanks, I think I'll save the transfer and keep two for the international break (and start of FIFFSA tournament).
Nope. Still own Westwood so shouldn't be a problem.
How do you plan to get him back currently, say he returns after next gameweek?
Loads of ways to do it in 3 transfers. Depends what else is going on. I already have 3 saved.
Pelle to Aguero, Mitrovic to Ighalo, Kolarov to 4.7
Pelle to Aguero, Kolarov and Clyde to Moreno and 4.6 (or similar)
Maybe KDB or Sanchez downgrades but that seems unlikely2 saved
People who have Chelsea defenders... are you keeping? Ive got Azpilicueta and their fixtures seem hard to ignore despite their woes
Get rid of him.
I'm keeping him. I think it will be important to have 2FT after international break.
Zumba owner here. Keeping with the fixtures in his favour...and now that the peasants' revolt has been quashed.
Zouma owner. Holding for the minute.
Every time someone makes a groin jokes, it reminded me of this scene.

Gotta love Chandler.Gotta love Friends!
🙂
Still can't believe it's been 20 years since the first episode.Time flies my friend.
I can't live with the fact that I will probably bench almighty Payet for the next GW ðŸ™
My attacking lineup:
Payet Mane KDB Sanchez Mahrez
Pelle Ighalo VardyHave you used AoA already?
I would bench Pelle.
Risky a little bit, Sunderland was dreadful against Lukakaka
No, but I have Clyne, VVD and Bellerin, so I think that this defence is too good to play AOA.
Agree but if Bellerin is out then I would play that chip.
This sounds clever, I will do it. 🙂
Bench Pelle, his away form is meeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh
Bench Pelle against the worst defence in the league is just asking for trouble. AOA
Very similiar problem, and very close to benching Payet.
So nervous for the game KAA Ghent agaist Valencia tonight! Going to watch in the Stadium 🙂
Enjoy! 🙂
Ok lads I"ve just changed the user name, you all know what is gonna happen
Alexis
Kun
Ozil
Yoyo
Bony
My version of heavy hitter in the old version of the scoutcast. I am really correct with explosion till nowThe only thing likely to explode with Bony is someone's head in row z.
Just won my first competitive chess game for my uni
🙂
Completely unrelated so here's a fantasy football question. Van Dijk, Moreno or Rojo?Moreno for value.
Depends on the rest of your defence though.Darmian, Bellerin, Martin, Richards, Kolarov
Thinking either Darmian --> Rojo/VVD
Or
Richards --> Moreno
Congratulations
Dijk best
Moreno best valueRojo!
Get in!
VVD.Vin Dijk = knight
Moreno = rook
Rojo = pawnMoreno it is!
LMS removals

Top 50K = 3
Top 100K = 14

Top 500K = 81
Top 1M = 123

1 in 35, not bad.
Are we expecting 2 losses tomorrow or just an Arsenal win?
Don't expect much from both games but both could scarp a draw.
Chelsea to win, people decide to hold their Chelsea players only to be disappointed at the weekend
Looking to see what range the DZ has for HoF?
Just need to be in a FFS League.
81st for me before my red arrow last week.8602
Up 2700 🙂
Oh snap!
''That's one small step for mankind, one giant leap for Zasa's HoF rating."WC should smash the rank up.
Hopefully. Ever the optimist eh, TM? 😉
Nice WC team btw, planning on opting for either Mahrez/Ighalo?Might decide in GW13. Still wish I WC'ed in GW3. Plenty of time to get a good rank and I always do better in the 2nd half of the season.
I see, think you'll definitely need that enabler though, maybe Milner or Cabaye perhaps? I remember you having a massive boost last year after the WC, good luck mate!
How far up do you have to finish?
18th atmYour 12808th in HoF. If you can hold your rank, you'll be top 200.
I see. Can I see it without being a member?
No. Only at the end of the season/start of the new season.
Cheers, I thought you were talking about the mini league. I had a quick gander at the ML and saw a 'Alex Torres M' at 81st and wrongly assumed it was you!
I'd definitely be somewhere in 4 figures, gimme a few seasons though 😉
2 casuals ranks there.
yeep, contemplated a new account for this season but I'd rather wear them with pride.
Soon on here have done that. Pretty disgraceful for full season players.
Some*
Indeed, I know there's a well known, old member of FISO who claims FPL deleted his history after being MIA for a year- http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/3157/history/
Hopefully doesn't join the FFS league.Wow.
Would probably be top 10 on that 1 season. Struggling a bit this year.
Aye, pretty weak WC tbh. He's one to keep an eye on though if gets a good rank again & joins the FFS league. Bit of a fraud.
Asked the professor for a rank anyway.
Oh dear.
so I don't have an entry because I'm not in the FFS League?
what's the ID again?Home page.
I take it I won't be added to HOF until Saturday's update?
Yeah, need to be on the league table.
Cheers, hopefully it won't get confused as there is a Mark K and I have mine listed the same since it's likely just feeding off the ID 🙂
Great start for you.
thanks, so far so good! think the no hits approach has forced me to heavily consider every move before pulling the trigger as opposed to knee-jerking..
I imagine my HoF rank will be trash given the 12/13 season and before when I would stop logging in before Xmas..
Recent season weigh the most so smash a season and be rewarded.
does the progression continue backwards like that? so 12/13 weighted less heavily than 13/14?
Yeah. Mark finish 190K 2 years ago then 42nd last year and got a massive jump.
Awesome, extra motivation to finish high this season.
1639
Probably inside 1000 easily with a top 1K this season.
Hopefully I can creep back into it. I fear freefall
Doubt it.
20817 ðŸ™
Little red arrow for you so far ðŸ™
Hopefully make that arrow green soon.
Get a green arrow, 3 reds won't help...
Hopefully get more than one green arrow and no reds 😉
4k ?
3623 for you, up 1300+ this season 🙂
my ranks
2012/13 top 1k GW 3 but this not count?
2013/14 top 500 GW 1
2014/2015 top .... 😀All ranks count.
Last season is really holding you back.
ah, it's about OR even I started GW3/4 ..ouch
Great 13/14 season for you.
619
Up 77, nice.
Up 77 compared to? Last season?
Think HoF has only till GW10. This GW11 halved my rank, so hopefully it only gets better from here..Career has 696 so before this season, 619 is GW10, under 600 when it updates later this week.
Got it, thanks! Surprised that the HoF rank has gone up this season considering the poor start...
It's a solid start, hardly poor.
I guess it has improved in the recent weeks. Probably the need to take 5 hits in 11 weeks making me feel otherwise - think I took 3 or 4 hits whole of last season.
Great job running LMS btw, look forward to your update right after an OR update every week!Cheers, seems GW2 was your closest week but made it by 6.
Jeez, it's amazing when a GW Score of 29 still beat the LMS score by 6. 😛
15k ?
12650
Martial to Lukaku done. 1 FT left.
Now time to choose a captain.Mahrez for me.
KDB!
Morning all!
When looking at form how many games do you go back?I usually go 4 games back.
3 or 4
2-4 depending on how the fixtures have been prior
3
Its either 2 or 3, but sometimes to be honest you have to predict when someone will hit form. Like when Sanchez scored a hatty or something, it was imminent but still. I think thats the hardest thing and the most rewarding or painful if u miss
It's just for a quick post I want to put together soon. There's a decision I'm struggling with this week so will collect some stats and post for all
Cheers Andy
Cheers all!
4, 6 at the max.
All this Pelle talk is going to be like last year when Hazard couldn't score away from home
Peel to Aguero soon anyway...
Kane / Vardy / Aguero
?
"Pelle can score big away from home too!"
Oh, I see ...
Your Pelle's away myth argument?
Not saying it's a myth - I'm sure there's some stats out there that show he's not done as well away from home but just 2 games ago he did okay...
I think if you have someone in form and the fixtures, you should at least play him regardless of the history.
I'll definitely be playing him but then I've set my team up to still have Westwood benching fodder
The beauty of bench fodder.
Gonna bench Payet or Ighalo myself. Or even Vardy.vardy? ahh goodluck with that..
Sunderland defense seems to be as bad or even worse as Chelsea's. I think I'm not as brave to bench Pelle although his stats dropped significantly.
🙂
Here he is.
Oh, hi there. How are you Mr Wheeto's
I'm doing ok thanks sir. How about yourself?
Will ozil rise / hazard drop today? Wanting to wait for UEFA to make decision
Should i ditch Begovic for De Gea for a -4pt hit?
You must have other priorities
Not at all for -4
this. Bego got 2 good fixtures coming up
Chances of Lingaard starting at the weekend? Man of the match tonight and United won so he might be tempted to keep the same team?
Yes, i think he will. Young probably full-back, Depay benched again. It's probably him or Herrera really, depending on formation
Lvg generally sticks with a team when they win.
Do you think Young might surprise start at LB in some game too, like he has done in the past? Reluctant to spend £6.4 on Smalling, though I have the money.
Could do, but hard to see with Rojo playing so well there right now
Yes, a risk I might take then.
In that respect, Janmaat âž¡ Rojo or save FT? Front 7 is settled, I don't want a change.I would give it 1 more week, as Bournemouth aren't playing great. But also depends on Janmaat's knock
Thanks.
If Bellerin is out, who would you play?
A) Dawson (mun)
B) Francis (NEW)a
a
Daws
B surely
A.
Francis
Dawson 100%
Cheers guys 🙂
Dawson even with Myhill?
In the same boat myself, still don't have a clue
Need help with defenders, have:
Richards, Janmaat, Huth, R.Martin, Darmian.Woah that's a filthy bad back line. How many FTs/money ITB?
1FT, 6.7 itb.
R.Martin > Bellerin (if Bellerin not fit then Moreno or Kos)
Like Bellerin, don't like options if not fit though.
Moreno could well be a great option. Nothing wrong with Kos either. Nailed on. Arsenal solid and great fixtures.
Hey guys who should I play this weekend
Myhill or hennesen
Alderwield or Dawson or nyom?
Vardy (c).
Cheers.Just as I was getting over Bony failed (c) this weekend. This article drops with those numbers.
Where many of the attempts on target though?
That's my point. He could of had a hatful with better finishing.
Wingers seem to do well against Brom.
Costa, Willian, Feghouli, Neymar, Suarez, Aboubakar.
Who would be your UCL captain?Suarez
Yeah, torn between Suarez and Neymar.
How did you do today? I got 4 cleansheets, but my other two players were de Bruyne (c) and Vazquez. ðŸ™2 CS and teixeira (c) goal... nothing more relevant
Who do you have for tomorrow? I have these six and Zouma.
thiago, fortounis, maxi, aboubakar, alba, neymar, domenech... will leave botia on bench
I would delete my account
^
Have not had too much problems with the site myself, probably because I just go there twice a week. 😀
whos on pens for Barca?
neymar i believe
Neymar.
theres my answer
Neymar but he missed one
