We delve into the members’ data tonight and assess some of the key statistics from the Gameweek gone by. Stoke and Leicester’s weekend goal heroes arrive on our radar, whilst we also analyse Chelsea’s lack of end product, Aaron Ramsey’s central midfield display and the relentless displays of Watford’s top scorer.

    Hw important is to get aguero...evn though lukaku Kane vardy are in form?

    1. RustyBz
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Not until he's picked up form and fitness. Plenty of good options elsewhere

    2. Kings of Lyon ★
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Not really that important

    3. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Not very if these three are doing the business.

    4. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 10 months ago

      It isn't right now. I would rather Ighalo at this moment looking at recent weeks

      About as important as it is to get Sturridge.

  2. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Would you do Firmino -> Feo?

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Yes!

    2. Eden Hazardous
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I would prefer Ramsey but if you want to punt , go for it 🙂

    3. Barnsley FC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Sounds like you enjoy your punts

    4. Funkyav

      crazy

      1. super zlatan
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Ramsey for me LR.

    5. Taffer
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Yes better option than Ramsey IMO.

  3. Alittude
    10 years, 10 months ago

    worth doin kdb to siva to fun firmino to coutino?

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Cout isn't even confirmed fit

      1. Alittude
        10 years, 10 months ago

        i mean over next cpl weeks

        1. Paulie Walnuts
          10 years, 10 months ago

          again... we don't know when he will be back.

          Go Ramsey for now

          1. Alittude
            10 years, 10 months ago

            k how much is he? will think about it thanks

  4. KLOPPS AND ROBBERS... the s…
    10 years, 10 months ago

    If you had to pick one for this gameweek
    A. Wollscheid (West Ham, away)
    B. Simpson (Chelsea, home)

    1. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I'd go A.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      10 years, 10 months ago

      A

  5. Dr Dream
    10 years, 10 months ago

    I can't wait for the transfer window in UFPL. I'm limping along and only held together with copious amounts of transfers.

    1. Dr Dream
      10 years, 10 months ago

      *loans

    2. THE Wild Rover
      10 years, 10 months ago

      You doing it bit by bit weekly or carrying over for a mini wc?

      1. Dr Dream
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Weekly. If I can stay in or around 100 OR up until the transfers I'll be happy enough. I could do with a Wijnaldum moment though soon.

      2. Dr Dream
        10 years, 10 months ago

        I'll do the transfers and still do the loans. I'm not gonna get any newbies to the prem that might come along. For every KDB there are usually about two Pedro's...no matter how good they look.

  6. GoonerByron
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Good to save transfer this week? Wait and deal with Begovic once I have 2FTs?

    Hennessey
    Bellerin - Walker - Moreno
    Hazard - Ozil - KDB - Mahrez
    Lukaku - Vardy - Giroud

    Begovic - Anya - Simpson - Souare

    1FT, 4.9 in the bank

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Why would you wait?

      1. GoonerByron
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Just thought Hennessey was good enough for this week and having 2FT next week would leave me in a stronger position?

        1. Paulie Walnuts
          10 years, 10 months ago

          A stronger position to bring in keeper that you already have the money for. I don't understand but go for it mate.

          1. GoonerByron
            10 years, 10 months ago

            Not too sure who I'd bring in though.. De Gea I suppose but I was also considering Courtois, and I'd rather play Hennessey than him this week.

      2. Beavis
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Cause he has another keeper?

    2. The Dribbler
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Yep. Bank the transfer. Good team.

      1. GoonerByron
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers!

        Bolaise is also a better option

          than Ramsey?

      2. Manamongst
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Yep, just got rid, plus he´s probably due a rotation by Martinez given his injury history.

        that being said, he will probably go bonkers now that I have frustratingly dumped him.

        1. Two is a Kompany three is a…
          10 years, 10 months ago

          I am holding hi. Few other pressing matters. And I dont like taking hits.

  8. HurriKane
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Tough one. Who'd you prefer ?

    Ramsey - avl MCI sot BOU NEW

    Silva - SWA ars SUN lei wat

    (already have Ozil and Kdb)

    1. The Dribbler
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Silva

      1. HurriKane
        10 years, 10 months ago

        If i own ramsey id have just enough money to do Vardy--> Kun if Kun starts firing

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I like Silva but Ramsey wins here. Playing in the middle and no Alexis means he can roam forward more.

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Ramsey cos I remember what it did when he played as a box to box mid in past

      1. Taffer
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Last season he played there a lot and was not great in FPL terms.

  10. wander
    10 years, 10 months ago

    so what do

    (a) Dump firminio and mane for Silva and deulofeu for a -4
    (b) Dump firmino and mane for ramsey and barkley. for a -4
    (c) Dump fimrinio for ramsery keep ,mane no hit.

    I have a mid of kdb ozil mahrez firminio and mane.

    1. The Dribbler

    2. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Ramsey and Alli

      1. wander
        10 years, 10 months ago

        if you had a choice of ramsey or silva ?

    3. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Don't think Mane out is worth a hit, so C out of those. Get rid of Mane next week.

    4. Two is a Kompany three is a…
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Is Firmino a definite drop?

        1. THE Wild Rover
          10 years, 10 months ago

          No need to apologise to me, I just don't get why everyday loads of people post questions where the answer is there. Everything newsworthy is there when confirmed yet people are really still unaware of this? 😕

      The quote from LVG at the very end of this report suggests they will not play this weekend,

  12. Bobby_Baggio
    10 years, 10 months ago

    I need to replace Sturridge (i know silly gamble). I have Vardy and Kane so who else to go for? P.S. i kinda am stubborn and wanna stay clear of Lukaku.

    A) Giroud
    B) Ighalo
    C) Martial
    D) Bony

    1. The Man Pastore
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Lukaku!!

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Dam u 🙁

    2. The Dribbler
      10 years, 10 months ago

      A or B. But if u go B u will likely need to sell him soon as upcoming fixtures arent good...unless ur planning on going forward with 3-5-2

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Was looking at Lanzini > Rambo so i could do 3-5-2

        1. The Dribbler
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Fair call. Go B in that case and invest the extra $ elsewhere. Maybe Kane to Kun down the track?

    3. RustyBz
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Sorry, no can do. Lukaku looks pretty important right now

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Its just if i put lukaku now i wont gain

        1. RustyBz
          10 years, 10 months ago

          But you'll stop losing - gamble elsewhere he looks like he's gonna score every game. Awfully unlucky not to get a hat trick Monday

          1. Bobby_Baggio
            10 years, 10 months ago

            Ok mate cheers

    4. HurriKane
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Lukaku for me. form and fixtures

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        10 years, 10 months ago

        I know i know just if i put lukaku now i wont gain

        1. NABIL - FPL otai

          At least you won;t go further behind

          1. Bobby_Baggio

            I know i know he just trolls me

    5. Hyperion
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Lukaku, stop trying to be clever. You may not gain but you'll fall further behind without him. Make your gains elsewhere.

  13. The Wise Owl

    Not yet.

    1. The Wise Owl
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Fail.

  14. NABIL - FPL otai
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Mane & Pelle are my biggest trolls of the seaon.

    Picked them in GW1, did almost nothing and when I ditched them in GW5/6, they went riot.

    Brought them back with my GW9 WC, and what do I get? 1 goal from Pelle, and 1 goal + 1 assist + 1 RC from Mane.

    And now I'm ditching them again. God knows when I'll bring them back.

    1. BabyB
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Well in that case, i might keep mane a couple of more weeks 😉

      Agree though, mane has trolled me. Good stats and had great chances to score but somehow missed every single one. So frustrating!

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        10 years, 10 months ago

        How could you 🙁 😉

        I always knew he'll get that 2,3,2,11,2,2,11,2 kind of production, but didn;t think I was so bad in other areas as well in the sense that I couldn;t hold him much longer. Really s*cks.

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I did same but with Mane then Pelle followed shortly afterwards - lame.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        10 years, 10 months ago

        To rub salt into wound I go with 3 SOT players most of the time - first with Targett and now Berty. lame

    3. HurriKane
      10 years, 10 months ago

      haha same with mane here.

      he;d probably go on a scoring now as im selling him this gw

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        10 years, 10 months ago

        I'm feeling it too 🙁

    4. OPTA FPL
      10 years, 10 months ago

      same here, I got Pelle + Mane from the start.
      especially Pelle, got nothing in 4-6 GW I had him, ran riots in the weeks I didnt own

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        10 years, 10 months ago

        He used to be at least semi-reliable, now he's just a headache

    5. Hyperion
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Same here! 🙁

      If I'd have gone for Lukaku instead of Pelle in GW9 I'd be top of all my MLs now. Pelle did exactly the same last season as well - I'm avoiding like the plague from now on.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Similar story.

        Worse, I went Vardy Iglaho Pelle with my GW9 WC - and I ditched Iggy instead of Pelle for Lukaku.

        #painfulisunderstatement

        1. Hyperion
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Dammit Pelle! My theory with Pelle is the way Soton play and his attributes as a player are not conducive to him scoring lots of goals.

          He's not quick so he can't run in behind, and on top of that Soton play slowly and keep the ball, so the opposition are generally pretty deep in their own half when Soton have the ball. As such most of the chances are crosses to Pelle when he's directly up against the centre backs, which are much more difficult to score. See how many of his shots have been off target this season.

          When Chelsea gave them space to counter attack they ran riot, but not many teams will do that, especially at home.

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            10 years, 10 months ago

            Actually he's not doing THAT bad, just well below our expectation. Last season he got 12 goals and 6 assists, very decent for a rookie in both real life and FPL (a commendable 149 pts). Right now he already 6 goals and 5 assists in 15 GWs, so he can actually imporve his record.

            Koeman always know how to utilize/play with a lone, big CF, just like Zlatan in his younger days at Ajax. Maybe BPL is too hard for him cause he's slow, plus he's not clinical enough (pretty wasteful), but I believe when he's on form he's not that donkey after all.

            1. Hyperion
              10 years, 10 months ago

              They still create lots of opportunities for him to have shots, so he's going to score some goals, they're just lower quality chances, so it's important with him not to be too drawn in by his high shots in the box number. Because they're lower quality it's going to be rare that he goes big and gets double figures, so he's not a viable captain option either.

  15. SpaceCadet

    vvd and mane > toby and ramsey for a hit?

    courtois
    skrtel bellerin vvd

    kane vardy lukaku

    McCarthy willian morgan dann

    1. RustyBz

      Just mane->Ramsey

    2. HurriKane
      10 years, 10 months ago

      just do mane to ramsey and play dann.

      hit not required imo

  16. Batigol
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Is it worth a hit to get rid of Begovic this week? My back up is a £4m non starter.

    Who should I get in an ideally leave in long term? Money ITB for any keeper.

    Rest of defence is VvD, Toby, PvA, Moreno and Francis.

    Cheers!

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Ever heard of Butland?

      1. Batigol
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Ha I have yes. I kep expecting their form to come to an end though! Butland looks a safe bet.

    2. Hyperion
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah might as well take a hit, at most you're only losing 2 points. De Gea or Butland.

      1. Batigol
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Even with Smalling and Darmian possibly out for a while?

        1. Hyperion
          10 years, 10 months ago

          In that case wait and see what the news is or just go Butland, don't fancy the Utd defence without Smalling.

      Yeah good move. Great team there. VVD stinks there, just like my Berty

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers NABIL.

        And yeah, Soton def really has been pants as of late. Just gonna have stick for now.

  22. Essrick
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Haz > ?

    Money no object.

    Rest of the midfield is Ozil, Sterling, Ayew, Mahrez

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Ayew out first.

      I'm serious

      1. super zlatan
        10 years, 10 months ago

        This ^

      2. Essrick
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Ayew will probably be next out, I'll bench him this week.

        Who would you recommend to replace Haz?

        1. Essrick
          10 years, 10 months ago

          I'm thinking KDB...

        2. NABIL - FPL otai
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Rambo. Silva.

          Bark if he's still in some form

    2. Raddy
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Did you get him last week?
      You might aswell stick to your guns if you chose to get him in the first place.

      1. Essrick
        10 years, 10 months ago

        No I've had him since the start but after blanking at home to Bournemouth it's time to offload! (Probably should have done it months ago)

        1. Raddy
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Wow that is dedication. Problem is you have held for this long and selling for his best run of fixtures so far..i'd probably keep till at least SUN.
          Ayew is more urgent

    3. The Dribbler
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Cout if fit. Maybe Eriksen as a differential?

    Morning lads. Best move here?

    Thinking Richards > Toby

    Butland. McCarthy
    Moreno. Bellerin. Kolarov. Richards. Ward
    KDB. Hazard. Ozil. Mahrez. Westwood
    Kane. Lukaku. Vardy

    1FT. 3.0 in bank

      I would save here

    2. Christina.
      10 years, 10 months ago

      benching pains?

      1. super zlatan
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Would bench Bellerin this week

        1. Christina.
          10 years, 10 months ago

          😕

          I wouldn't.

          1. super zlatan
            10 years, 10 months ago

            Could backfire slightly. But Toby is beastly at the moment.

      Save. Don't see a need to spend.

      1. super zlatan
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Would mean a strong squad for Xmas LR.
        Or alternatively I could do Westwood > Alli

    4. Meinhoff
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Richards to Toby

    5. NABIL - FPL otai
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Hey there Zlatan.

      Lovely team. Yep do it. Ramsey can wait (I think so)

      1. super zlatan
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers Nabil

      2. NABIL - FPL otai
        10 years, 10 months ago

        or you can save it

        1. super zlatan
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Maybe saving is the sensible move. Will have a think. Really want Toby

      Gamba Osaka v Urawa Red Diamonds. Great stuff, J-League.

    Just logged on to see Sturridge.Injury

    Are.you.ACTUALLY.TAKING.THE.PISS.

    1. La Roja
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I would have told you the same when you considered to bring him in.

    2. Funkyav
      10 years, 10 months ago

      who would have thought it?

      Next you will be telling me Aguero is injured. What about Wilshere?

    3. Rambo Motin
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I haven't brought him in but bloody hell, the man is a walking band-aid

  26. CCaddy

    Best defender for Xmas period if smalling is out?

    * already have bellerin Toby Moreno Dawson

    1. super zlatan
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Monreal

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      10 years, 10 months ago

      What's wrong with Smalling? Potentially out medium/long term?

  27. THE Wild Rover
    10 years, 10 months ago

    A lot of media talk that Liverpool should sell Sturridge. Who exactly would buy him? Not anyone that could him that's for sure!

    1. La Roja
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Chelsea

    2. Piggs Boson
      10 years, 10 months ago

      City could use to him for when Aguero gets injured, and vice versa.

    3. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Personally I'd be curious what he does with all the free time

      1. La Roja
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Dance?

        1. Hamstergod
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 10 months ago

          He would have to dance on his hands and even then I wouldn't bet against him getting injured.

  28. ☆Khaz
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Any suggestions what to do with Aguero?

    Other forwards are Lukaku and Vardy.

    Is Kane worth it being fairly out of form atm? Any point getting in Ighalo so late when the fixtures turn?

    1. super zlatan
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Has to be Kane. Top of the captain poll. You could lose ground if he goes mental and you don't have him.

      1. ☆Khaz
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Good argument, thanks.

  29. Man Chest Hair United
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Best Kun replacement

    A kane

    B lukaku

    1. super zlatan
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Feck. Ideally you need both.

      Probably B

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      10 years, 10 months ago

      A

    3. bitm2007

      Both good picks, Kane's a good captain option for two of the next three weeks.

    4. Beavis
      10 years, 10 months ago

      B

  30. bitm2007

    Lukaku, Vardy and Ighalo owners, are you planning to bring Kane in this week ?

    I'm thinking of sticking with my in form forwards, and captaining KDB who has good fixtures (SWA, SUN), when Kane home to Newcastle and Norwich.

    1. ☆Khaz
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Problem is that City is completely dysfunctional with their injuries.

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Home forms still good.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Luckily I still got Pelle. Easy switch

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Vardy would be the one to go, but I'd lose 0.6 in team value getting him back for the Bournemouth and Villa games
