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.
Sturridge, darmain, lanzini.... whoever next!
Arsenal player tomorrow.
8pts hit is next?
Mike Smalling?
Hey gents, what would you do? 4.3 ITB
A) Play AoA chip (Gosling v a weakened United backline?)
B) Firmino > Ramsey/Alli/Shaqiri
C) Save
DDG/(Hennessey?)
Alderweireld Moreno Bellerin
KDB Ozil Mahrez Firmino
Kane Lukaku Vardy
Gosling Wollscheid SimpsonSave imo.
Not worth the AoA with that def and I don't think the united def will be THAT open.Cheers, yeah I think I'm overstating the Manu deficiencies. DDG should get some save points at least.
Pick one for the next 4 GW's:
A: Mahrez
B: Ramsey
C: Alli
D: Wijnaldum
E: Bournemouth (stanis/king/Gosling)
F: Other
Current team
Darmian, Bellerin, Moreno, Pieters, Cedric
KDB, Coutinho, Ozil, Bolasie, ____________?
Vardy, Lukaku, Ighalo
CheersE: Bournemouth (stanis
Thanks.
JUST because of the United injuries or you think he will have a good run?
Surman
Thanks. Although I can't see him outscoring the others.
Neither can I but he's 100% nailed and can sit on the bench every week
Valid point. It all comes down to how aggressive you are I guess. If you are just looking for that 2p man, go for it. In your case I would just prefer a man, who can be played in the odd game or has a chance of real points in the event of a rotation.
I got Gosling for the same reasoning but not much difference between him and Stan.
Agree that between those two it is a tough call.
Wakey
Last night was a perfect example of why I'm only playing UFPL next season.
I had Lukaku(c) in FPl and owned him but not capt in UFPL. 9 of the top 15 in UFPL had him as capt and only 3 didn't own him. Gutted when he scored even as FPL capt.
IncompatibleYeah it is a bit. I was the other way around..(c) in FPL and just playing in UFPL. It does leave the game a bit flat not knowing who you are cheering for or who to throw your shoe at.
How many pts did your actual (c) in UFPL get WR?
Ighalo 9, same as Lukaku
So they didn't beat you on (c) picks then, so not too bad. You must have been praying for the blank though, and you nearly got it.
Duffalow was a massive diff, nobody else him him but he blew it
Any easy to spot weaknesses here? what needs changing?
DDG, Myhill
Kolarov, Bellerin, Bertrand, Francis, Nyom
Mahrez, Deolefeu, KDB, Ozil, Wanyama
Kane, Lukaku, Vardy
£3.5 in the bank and 2 free transfers
Im thinking about ditching DeolefeuMakes sense. Not scoring enough for a main mid.
who would you be looking at as a replacement?
Depends what you want the 3.5 for.
nothing, was half marked for Sergio but now i dont mind.
Ship Wanyama out. Better options for a fifth mid - even at that price.
who?
The Bournemouth boys. Drinkwater if you believe Leicester can keep it going. Maybe even Anya despite of the fixtures.
I honestly can't see anything that needs changing urgently man, its a nice team, at a push maybe transfer out Bertrand for Moreno or something.
Any help would be great below, can never get replies these days lol.Oi Gazpi where've you been?
Please be sure to send me your squad and (c) this week. Important game coming up Vs. Scotland!
Yeah I think Deulofeu to Walcott, Eriksen or Ramsey could be a good bet. Maybe wait to see how Walcott and Ramsey play tomorrow?ive been wondered where your emails are?! this is my team at the moment, i might make 1 transfer
Did you not get an email this week?
If you missed my email you can always just check out the FPL forum.
ok thanks.
What happened to Aguero s text he was recovering well? That was last week wasnt it. Did he have a set back?
Just shows why what a player tweets is as meaningful as what we glean from their reactions to the injury as it happens.
Scans will always reveal something else and in the end the manager decides.Aguero seems to think he is fine when he isn't.
Lyin little troll. Still got him though 😉
Either that or Agüero clearly doesn't know as much about the human body as the people treating him who have done close to a decade of medical training.
He was training though. Is he not now? Or was that just cod he wasn't starting tonight?
Moreno is mighty close to a rise tonight if that matters.
He's in my Dead team if that wins Me any kudos
Is Kolarov still nailed on even though Clichy is fit?
Yes IMO
Well obviously becoming less nailed on
Nope. Nailed on means you'd expect him to play all the games in December, which he definitely won't IMO
Bench boost or Triple captain for double GWK? Which one do you prefer?
Use both in DGWs as there will likely be at least 2 IMO 🙂
Depends on your bench.
I don't think I'll have strong bench at any point, maybe in that case I decide to play bench boost.
In other more likely scenario idea is to play wildcard in gw before double gw, get many double gamweekers, and then play bench boost in double gamweek.
Both for different DGW's
I suppose Bench boost is better if played correctly
Sameless repost, 0 replies, any input would awesome, team is:
Butland
Bellerin - Coleman - Alderweireld
Mahrez - Ozil - KDB - Hazard
Kane - Sturridge - Lukaku
__________________________
McCarthy: Alli, Simpson, Oxford 1FT, 0.7 ITB
1. You reckon i should just play Alli & bench Sturridge in a 3-5-2 for this week?
2. Hazard > Ramsey/Silva/Barkley for free
3. Hazard & Sturridge both out for -4?
Any help would be greatly appreciated here after a couple of miserable gameweeks. Thanks 🙂Sturridge is probably out.
i know mate, he's gonna be got rid of, but whats teh best option out the three listed?
Just Sturridge out. Still a benching headache unless you don't like the replacements.
I like your team alot, alderweld rocks, coleman is the boy, i wouldnt go hazard, but thats just me
Cheers man, think i may just get rid of Studge and Haz and take a hit for either ramsey and ighalo or silva and giroud
Play Alli most definitely ... he could go large against Newcastle.
Ditch Sturridge, there's no point keeping him, even if sort of fit.Cheers TE, yeah i really wanna play aLLI, His benched points last week hurt a little, Sturridge is definitely gone.
BBC Sport stupid funny stat from earlier.
"Real Madrid scored more goals tonight (8) than Manchester United scored in the entire group stage (6)."That's not a fair comparison. Man United were given the toughest group. It was a conspiracy by UEFA against United
It's not a useful stat, as I said stupid and funny though.
City fans shouldn't be booing the UEFA theme tune then eh? Should be applauding it
Also:
Real Madrid now lead Malmo 62-0. #Ronaldo has scored 47 of them.Saw that, ridiculous!
Man yoo are a joke donkey team
Facepalm
Does Sturridge being out increase or lesson the appeal of Firmino? Looking to ship him this week but maybe i should keep?
Increase, could easily be false 9
Like Gomis you mean?
No, he's a different breed
Patience could pay off. Only has 1 less point than KDB in the last 5 games
Awesome name, awesome grav!!
Kdb has only scored 9 points more than sterling so far this season.thought it would have been more.
Thinking A. hazard to kdb or
B. Mane to sterling
both for free.which is better.Sterling is a good dead/draft team player. Not as good as Memphis though
In 4 less weeks...
Good point.
100 mins so not much more than 1 game less tbf
Would argue that that points to him being less of a rotation risk but Silva has been out in that time so we just don't know.
Worth remembering he has been available for 5 games less, although that only reads in 100 (10%) minutes less game time.
Sterling has only missed one game outright so a bit of a point against him that he's seemingly not always nailed for 60 min?
For sure, I think KDB while prove the better option over the course of the season. Hate the fact my 7.0 million mid in Tadic doesn't play 90 minute, definitely don't want that from an 8.9 mid.
Well also played 100 more minutes though that's not a great deal but does translate to some points just via playing time that KDB couldn't have gotten having joined 4 gameweeks in.
.061 points per minute vs .077Yeah he got that hat trick didn't he
Just checked some man city player ratings for the game tonight. KDB scored the lowest with 4/10. Uh oh
Saving for Swansea
I dodged Ighalo so far, should i bring him in for his last "easy" game? or leave it now, i left it too late?
It depends on your team and if you have any other pressing matters imo. With those stats, I am not even sure he won't keep on even in tougher fixtures.
DDG, Myhill
Kolarov, Bellerin, Bertrand, Francis, Nyom
Mahrez, Deolefeu, KDB, Ozil, Wanyama
Kane, Lukaku, VardyI think upgrading Deulofeu is a more pressing concern, otherwise I'd say Ighalo is worth a punt for this week (especially considering our FIFFSA tie).
deo to ramsey im thinking. he loves that position
I favour Walcott but think they're equally valid choices, the good thing about the Ramsey transfer is you get the benefit of tomorrow's game to help you decide.
He certainly looked more dangerous than both Vardy and Kane - and has the stats to back it. But not sure if I would sell either of those for Ighalo. Though I actually believe that Ighalo can match or even outscore Kane this gw.
Uniteds defensive prospects have taken a hit over the last few days. Schneiderlin, darmain & possibly smalling out is bad news. Ramsey & bellerin to get injured tomoro no doubt
Current team:
Begovic/Butland
Bellerin/Alder/Moreno/Sagna
Coutinho; Ozil; Barkley; Mahrez; Westwood
Aguero;Vardy;Lukaku
1 FT. 4.1m in the bank.
Currently looking at Coutinho + Aguero to KDB + Kane, although not set on either - particularly KDB. The likes of Silva, Eriksen etc. giving food for thought.
Any comments welcome. Also bit worried about no Man Utd cover.Most people seem to think the United def isn't going to hold up with all the injuries. Not so sure about that myself, as it has been so solid because of their system more than the quality of players imo.
Wait for Coutinho news? And personally I don't see Barkley continuing the returns.
Ramsey, worth a shot? im thinking deolefeu to ramsey, whilst he has his best position
Did ManCity play a 433 with Silva or Sterling as striker?
sterling yes
Cheers
Will Mahrez rise tonight? Cedric fall?
CheersNop on both counts.
Thanks
I'd say no both for both.
http://www.fplstatistics.com/Appreciate it - thanks
So who watched the game? I see Silva got on the scoresheet but curious to know about his overall performance
David Silva: Was busy throughout the match and fired his side into the lead with an impressive finish from a tight angle. The quality was not always there from the Spaniard, but he perservered and helped drive his side to the three points. (7/10)
just looked at my transfer history..
great moves
gw3 Sinclair to mahrez
gw10 mariappa to alderweireld
gw12 martial to lukaku
can only see one not so great
gw8 butland to hennessy
interesting to wonder what was I thinking at the time...Saving yourself 0.5, tbf stoke looked poor defensively at the time.
Best Firmino replacement?
A) Arny
B) Bolasie
C) RamseyDon't sell yet
He's looked very poor the last 2 games and he's not even nailed on - seems logical enough for me to transfer him out
See BF reply below
Main cog of attack, playing at home, against a team who have recently become shaky.
Keep for now.Could have easily used that argument for Newcastle.
1. Shaky Defence
2. Liverpool just hammered Southampton away from home
Could be playing up front
Why so?
Sturridge is injured
What about Benteke?
Rams
@Az just seen your comment on the previous page unlucky losing your chess match tonight as for your team I would probably look to get Cech mate.
Beautiful
King also an option 😉
Coutinho/ Aguero likely to double drop this week?
De Gea --- (McCarthy)
Bellerin --- Cresswell --- Moreno --- (VVD, Oxford)
KDB --- Ozil --- Mahrez --- Ayew --- (Lingard)
Kane (C) --- Lukaku (vc) --- Vardy
1 FT 5.1m ITB
Any suggestions please?
Ayew out for Barkley/Silva/CoutinhoIf you want to have a gamble, I'd suggest Ayew > Mata.
Exempt from LvG rotation, playing in favoured role with Rooney out and fixtures are turning nice.Ayew->Cout if fit unless you think you want the cash for other upgrades.
Thinking of transferring out Hazard. Ramsey looks a great option, and at 8.0 could be a great bargain
I got in Ozil a couple of weeks back but am tempted with either Ramsey or a possible Walcott resurgence.
Ya I have Ozil as well. I had Sanchez also, so I'm not really afraid to double up. Especially watching chelsea, they can't get anything going.
A) Janmaat
B) Francis
C) Richards
to Toby Alderweireld
?Lol, Sturridge out again!? This is ridiculous..
*predictable
Liverpool really should just offload him. Not sure who would ever buy him though..
This.
