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.
Myhill, McCarthy
Bellerin, Darmian, Sagna, Evans, Hangeland
Sanchez, KDB, Payet, Mahrez, Westwood
Lukaku, Pelle, Vardy
1FT, 4.4 in bank
A) Hangeland -> Moreno
B) Darmian -> VVD
C) McCarthy -> Gomes
Ta!
Save unless Bellerin is out IMO.
Cech or De Gea?
Already got Bellerin.
DDG, better fix and better defence
Thanks, wouldn't agree on the better defence though 🙂
8 goals conceded for both, with Arsenal scoring 6 more and therefore playing more attacking football, which means their defence is actually better...by this odd logic 🙂
ddg
hey Konig congrats on your playoffs win, Bertrand vs Cedric was the deciding factor in a match of 83 vs 80
yeah., hard victory... still need to check the next opponent
DDG or Rojo or both for free? Going the other way McCarthy and Cresswell
Just DDG. Consider Moreno, a saints def or arsenal (if you don't have one of their defs) with the other one.
Darmian -> Moreno
Reply fail to Jimjam
kane to Benteki or Bony for one week punt, yeh or nay?
Went to bed last night at 527K checked today after Kane's 14 points and up to 372K, quite happy with that although shows how tight it is this season, onwards and upwards!
16 😛
Even his owners don't want that buggy bonus point. 😉
Was pretty much the exact opposite.
Had just Toby.. knew I was doomed.
Only bright spark is that there isn't a huge amount in points between rankings it seems.
Real benching-headache towards the upcoming GW, as I dont wanna bench Ighalo/Mahrez. So it comes down to this
Martial (WBA) or Payet (EVE)?
Currently on Martial because of Utds bad offensive form. Benching him though will hurt being a united-fan..
Thoughts?
How nailed on is Nathan Aké? His attacking threat is quite imressive.
the best chelsea player atm.
I'm surprised why they loaned him out when they have only 6 first team defenders.
Hahaha!
Is Benteke worth a punt? Surely he will start?
Just can't decide, who to bench here this week?:
A) Ighalo (lei)
B) Sterling (avl)
C) Yaya (avl)
D) Mane (sun)None. AOA?
Already used 🙁
You cannot bench any of them! If I have a gun to my head, A.
OK this will be my team gwk12, going to keep hold of my AOA and bench Cabaye, he has much better fixtures coming up. Thoughts?
Myhill
Janmaat Cedric Monreal
Mane Payet Sanchez(vc) Sterling
Lukaku Kane Bony (c)
McCarthy Cabaye Richards GomezBest Martial replacement then..
Lukaku, Bony or Benteke.
Conversion rate v Chances created
Vardy, Pelle, Martial
KDB, Alexis, Payet, Mahrez, Westwood
My other attackers..
Have 4.3m in account but maybe I need that for Aguero.
After bigging up Rojo last week and folks finally following on, I can't wait for his own goal and red card this weekend.
He was actually getting forward tonight
Yeah, end product is lacking a little, should've scored that volley from about 10 yards out and got a couple of headers on target instead of flashing wide. Quite encouraging though.
I think I'm gonna drink a big glass of milk, then maybe I'll take 3 Viagra
Hardcore dairy
United's stats are horrendous in attack.
Would you rather play:
A) Williams (nor)
B) Dawson (mun)Williams.
A
B and I'm a United fan.
B
Same decision for me. I'm on A but unsure.
Which midfielder (short-term):
A) Özil
B) WijnaldumA.
A
Well, I've had a couple of (actually four in a row) decent weeks now, finally up in the top 10 (yay!), so I can really sense a slump ahead.
As for next week, I think it will be a low scoring week other than Leicester attack, so lining up this way:
Butland,
Dawson, **Janmaat, van Dijk,
Sanchez, Mahrez (c), de Bruyne, **Payet,
Pelle, **Kane, Vardy.
(Ruddy, Westwood, Huth, Nyom) - £3.7m in the bank.
My defence is really bad, three away games with two of them difficult. But hardly sure I want to use a transfer on defence two weeks in a row.
Also, I bought Kane EXACTLY with these two weeks in mind, but not exactly sure of selling him this week. Fancy Lukaku from GW13 myself.
So, Kane to Lukaku, Payet to some Mane-esque midfielder, a defender from United... or save and go into the int break with 2 FT.
Much appreciated. 🙂Yep, looks good.
Payet - Wij/Ozil if you must but otherwise I'de save FTThanks. That is what I am leaning towards as well, though I also don't want to keep Kane.
I know how you feel, I've owned him the last two weeks and because of the fact he's saved my game week twice now, I think I'll hold for the London Derby and WHM.
I personally would save, as I think I value that extra transfer over int break quite highly.
I'm saving the Scoutcast for tomorrow's boring drive to work
I have definitely missed a trick the last few timesBut the Scoutcast might make you fall asleep at the wheel....
Or hopefully get me excited at all the potential transfer opprrtunities I have inevitably missed 😛
Which 1 to play this week
a) Dier v ARS
b) Evans v MAN U
c) Delaney v LIVEvans from those 3.
yikes...next question
Evans booking and 2 goals conceded imo
We can only score 2 if we manage to have 2 shots on target...
Evans easy
nah.
Ya.
AOA chip?
0 pts
0 pts
1 pt
so, Delaney
A) Play Francis (NEW) (Save FT)
B) Darmian > Moreno (FT) and play Moreno (CPL) (Long term too)
If Bellerin is indeed out, Evans -> Moreno becomes even more easy
But Koscielny.
Can anyone with a good knowledge of football rules help clarify something. On Saturday in the Man City vs Norwich game Russell Martin was sent off for blocking the ball in front of goal with his arm and has therefore been given a ban. I noticed though that Sterling was given an assist which implies the penalty was given for a foul in the build up. Therefore should the sending off still stand? Do Norwich have a case for getting the ban rescinded?
I'm monitoring assists within FPL. There is a real inconsistency on what they give and don't give (based on their rules).
You've made more of this than necessary. His assist was awarded as it was his shot that Martin handled.
Absolutely buzzing after that performance from City tonight. Finally looking good in Europe. Need to keep that up now.
Away to Juve will be a test
Yeah it will be a tough game but play like that and certainly should have a good chance.
Was a great game to watch
Yeah very entertaining. Enjoyed it immensely.
As a Fabianski owner I can't help but notice he has been due a price drop every day for about the last week now (FPL statistics). Anybody else find the whole secret price change thing annoying with FPL?
I know the argument - same for everyone, but it isn't! Some players seem to change price more rapidly than others. The fact it's secret stinks!
Rant over... 🙂 . ps. I love FPL x
Is Aguero's price frozen or will he drop tonight? I'm 0.1 off bringing him back if I go for Rojo
Not frozen at the minute but I believe he will be frozen in a price change for 10 days once the flag is removed
Thanks, so we expect him to drop tonight then? Sitting at -102% with FFF
Been predicted to drop for a few days but never quite made it... expecting him to hit 13.0 at least before he returns.
Cheers mate.
Spoke to my mate who supports United and he considers Rojo more of a medium term rotation risk than I'd previously thought. That's enough to tip me over the edge and settle for Moreno I think.
Looks like cash won't be an issue after all.
Hi guys- help pls! used my AOA last week- so got have to drop 1 of the following for this gameweek to the bench!
payet, mane, sanchez, kdb, mahrez
vardy, pelle, lukaku
any ideas? I m confused as hell!Bench Sanchez. He will blank. But you probably won't be able to do it so Payet or Pellè.
I can t get my head around benching sanchez!
I m torn between mane as I have pelle coverage or payet....Fellow Sánchez benchers unite!
identical front 8 to me - i'm leaning to sanchez mainly because he;'s arsenal vs spurs 🙂
also after bayern munich where he must play maybe not so hot
and who else could you drop given the opponents?Its a tough one.... I m a spurs fan and it almost makes it easier if we lose and sanchez scores... can you imagine 2-0 arsenal with sanchez goal and assist?!
In order to fund Aguero:
KDB to:
A) Wijnaldum
B) Ozil
C) Yaya
D) HoldD for Villa atleast. Save too.
Awesome, looks like I'll be having 2 FTs for the Intl. Break and before the FIFFSA tourney 🙂
That's great!
D may take a couple of games to get back up to speed
Cheers mate. Think this is what I'll do
When is Aguero back? Says for Liverpool game but have there been any announcements/ public updates?
Oooooh, big numberssss.
Hmmm I was set on Sterling, but Ozil is now in my thoughts.
Sterling goal threat v Ozil assists and involvement?😆
Watch Ozil play tomorrow.What a great idea 🙂
The hell is wrong with Bellerin? Whys someone said he's out
Also, KDB rested or dropped?
Check stickies on Scout Squad
KDB rested, came on for last 15 mins, being saved for Villa at weekend 🙂
Okay I think I agree with you.
Any Bellerin news?Out midweek.
Little scout tweet would be fab if you have the power. I rely on them for such nuggets of info haha
I'm sure it will be covered off Friday night Chris but as people mention he may be OK for the weekend
