We take our usual post-Gameweek delve into the members data this evening. Chelsea and West Ham’s playmakers are under assessment, as are Spurs and City’s main men up front, whilst we also cast an eye over Bournemouth’s fit-again flier and Norwich’s improving wide man as the Canaries attempt to salvage their top-flight berth for another season.

    Current results “prediction” for each match next GW (based on each team’s number of team goals spread market mid-point).

    Norwich 0.95 Man C 1.95
    Bournemouth 1.45 Swansea 0.9
    Stoke 1.15 Southampton 1.1
    Villa 0.8 Spurs 1.95
    Leicester 1.95 Newcastle 0.85

    For example, if Norwich v Man C was played at the same time in parallel universes, say, 100 times, the spread-betting website reckons that Norwich would score 95 goals (i.e. a 0.95 average) and Man C 195 (i.e. a 1.95 average).

    1. tm245
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Interesting that the big three are all at 1.95 average.

  2. tm245
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Is no Kane too risky? Trying to be different but not stupid.

    Lloris
    Otamendi Simpson Daniels Rangel
    Arnautovic Silva Alli Silva Drinkwater
    Aguero

    1. Marveaux or Kacaniklic
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Not owning a highly owned attacker vs Villa is the definition of risky.

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 7 months ago

        a highly owned attacker on penalty duty.

      1. ​
        10 years, 7 months ago

        and this is without taking into account Marveaux's points!

    2. Piggs Boson
      10 years, 7 months ago

      As someone who loves risk, that's suicide. Aguero and Kane are by far the best FPL players to own this GW imo, even above Leicester players, who seem to be scoring goals fewer recently.

      1. Piggs Boson
        10 years, 7 months ago

        fewer goals*

      2. tm245
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Agree with this about Leicester.

    3. tm245

      Your logic is undeniable, and that form table made me throw up in my mouth a little.

    Ahh I can't decide between siggy and yaya as my payet replacement? Please help

    Also struggling to choose between hart and butland to replace ddg

    1. waldo666
      10 years, 7 months ago

      I was leaning to Siggy but ML rival got him last week and I need to differentiate so will now most likely go Yaya, really boils down to your own circumstances I think

  4. DameCorp
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Bench one!

    A) Williams (bou)
    B) Van Djik (stk)
    C) Simpson (NEW)
    D) Dier (avl)

    1. Marveaux or Kacaniklic
      10 years, 7 months ago

      VVD

    2. scootadee
      10 years, 7 months ago

      B

  5. Marveaux or Kacaniklic
    10 years, 7 months ago

    I randomly own Jagielka. Would you straight swap him for Daniels/Williams or upgrade Bennett to Daniels/Williams. It would mean tieing up a million in the defence that could come in handy later. Kane to Costa in GW32 for example. But maybe I should hold Jags as he'll have a couple of dgws in the future.

    1. ​
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Upgrade Bennett, Jags could be useful later.

      1. Marveaux or Kacaniklic
        10 years, 7 months ago

        I dunno man. Would probably prevent me from the Kane to Costa move in 32. Ben Davies would be ideal even short-term. We'll see tomorrow what Poch says about Rose.

    payet > siggy dilemma. which pill do i swallow?

    Red pill:
    • GW30: Smith (SWA)
    • GW31: Payet (che)
    • 1FT in pocket

    Blue pill:
    • GW30: Siggy (bou)
    • GW31: Siggy (AVL)

    1. Seb Wassell
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Very much the Blue pill.

      1. zizoo10
        10 years, 7 months ago

        when written in this form, it's almost clear that payet > siggy is a good option.
        however most on this forum simply say, "hold payet, play 4-5 defenders if you have to"

    2. scootadee
      10 years, 7 months ago

      blue

    3. Pochecinno
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Blue

    4. Marveaux or Kacaniklic
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Red Pill. Payet is fixture proof.

  7. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Liverpool's fixtures from GW33 on to the end of the season, coupled with their DGWs makes Firmino essential? must be.

    1. scootadee
      10 years, 7 months ago

      yep i agree

  8. scootadee
    10 years, 7 months ago

    even if targett plays this week i'll be 1 short.

    so i'm thinking of doing costa & willian (blank & WHM) -> kane and siggy for a hit for a 2 week punt (they both play bou and avl) before bringing CHE players back.

    yay or nay?

    1. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
      10 years, 7 months ago

      cant rely on Targett

      1. scootadee
        10 years, 7 months ago

        yeah thats why i need to take a hit to cover him, worth it? it would be to get siggy

  9. Donald Balders
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Risers: Arnautovic

    Fallers: Borthwick-Jackson, Doumbia, Saivet

      Thanks Puppy

    4. Piggs Boson
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Not a fan of buying Arnie. Stoke don't score many goals, so one of their attackers is only worth it over super easy fixtures.

      Over the last 10 GWs, Arnie has returned in just two fixtures, NOR & AVL.

      I like that he's rising 🙂

      1. Piggs Boson
        10 years, 7 months ago

        His last 8*

        He missed two games.

      2. Pochecinno
        10 years, 7 months ago

        This is why I'm looking at my options below 🙂

      No Ozil fall again, good.

        10 years, 7 months ago

        what's your sky captain plan this weekend?

        1. In Like Flynn.
          • Has Moderation Rights
          10 years, 7 months ago

          I'll have a look, back in bit when I logged in an' stuff.

          1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
            10 years, 7 months ago

            nice one

        2. ​
          10 years, 7 months ago

          What are you doing Carrick? I'm on a simple Aguero -> Vardy. Though I've seen others using transfers to do Aguero -> Kane -> Vardy

          1. In Like Flynn.
            • Has Moderation Rights
            10 years, 7 months ago

            That requires taking Aguero or Kane out assuming you don't own the incoming player of course, ------ Unfortunately....

            1. ​
              10 years, 7 months ago

              Yeah that is the problem. iirc Sarj sold Vardy last week so he owns just Aguero and Kane, allowing him to sell Kane for Vardy for that third captaincy. Then he'll sell a mid for Kane next Saturday night to catch Kane vs Bou 😮

              1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
                10 years, 7 months ago

                damn, didn't think of that

                1. ​
                  10 years, 7 months ago

                  yeah 3 transfers for an extra two games from a mid and also an extra captaincy on Kane

          2. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
            10 years, 7 months ago

            I already have aguero, kane and vardy so cannot do the latter plan. Wish I could!

            Thinking Aguero to Mahrez

        3. In Like Flynn.
          • Has Moderation Rights
          10 years, 7 months ago

          I currently have both teams with Aguero (C) for Saturday

          I'll probably keep him and just swap to Mahrez on Monday who then plays again on the Saturday with a swap to whoever I think best for Sunday as the blank GW following gives us a free Captaincy swap for the start of the next GW.

          That is my theory it is mine and no one else's. 🙂

          1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
            10 years, 7 months ago

            Think I'm doing the same! Really annoying not being able to captain Kane against Villa tho

            1. In Like Flynn.
              • Has Moderation Rights
              10 years, 7 months ago

              I already own all the players that would be best punts, Would it be worth two transfers?
              Actually I think it's more to get everyone back. Nope it's a no hoper as far as I can tell.

              1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
                10 years, 7 months ago

                agreed

  10. Pochecinno
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Butland
    Williams Kompany Fuchs
    Sigurdsson Eriksen Mahrez Arnautovic
    Kane(vc) Aguero(c) Vardy

    Hennessey* Ozil* Bellerin* Azpilicueta*

    1FT 0.0itb

    a) save
    b) Arnautovic ➡ Alli

    🙂

    1. scootadee
      10 years, 7 months ago

      A, already have eriksen and kane that's enough spurs i reckon.

    2. Shearer & Sutton
      10 years, 7 months ago

      A

    3. Piggs Boson
      10 years, 7 months ago

      I'd wait until pressers, something else may come up. I heard a rumour that Alli has been struggling with fitness a bit lately. But I like the move if he is 100% 🙂

    need a hit to field 11 players

      Nyom to Daniels

      1. Rex Lapis

        only play 10 players this GW?

        1. Pochecinno
          10 years, 7 months ago

          What are your other options? Ozil is best long-term - Ozil to Yaya is not worth a hit

          1. Rex Lapis
            10 years, 7 months ago

            Elliot
            Kompany Williams Huth
            Mahrez Alli
            Kane Kun Vardy

            Hennessey Bellerin Firmino Payet Ozil Nyom

            1. Pochecinno
              10 years, 7 months ago

              I'd rather get rid of Payet and bring him back after the second blank.

              1. Rex Lapis
                10 years, 7 months ago

                cheers Poch

              2. Pochecinno
                10 years, 7 months ago

                Or earlier if you want, but if you're desperate to get XI this week, move Nyom and Payet on

  12. Marv87
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Silva or siggy?

    1. Pochecinno
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Siggy

  13. Venom Snake
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Should I sell Azpi or Bellerin?

      Azpi

    1. Shtreedon
      10 years, 7 months ago

      I like Gradel, he's a very good player but I'm not sure if he's still that good after coming back from a long injury, too early imo.

  15. Jacques The Lad

    Worth taking a hit to field a full XI this week?

      Seen a lot of "depends" answers to this Q previously.. but i think you should.. every single time.

    2. Manu5
      10 years, 7 months ago

      One hit, if you can't field 11

    3. Jacques The Lad
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Would be looking to move one of Ozil, Payet, or Barkley

      1. ​
        10 years, 7 months ago

        cash for Payet -> Silva? If not, Yaya?

        1. Jacques The Lad
          10 years, 7 months ago

          I've got 2.4ITB - 10.5 to spend if I move Payet

          1. ​
            10 years, 7 months ago

            Silva in would be my move then

            1. Jacques The Lad
              10 years, 7 months ago

              Yep I think thats where I will go, City v Norwich looks tasty

      2. Manu5
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Which ever one you have the least value in, because you will probably want them back when there dgw comes calling

    4. ​
      10 years, 7 months ago

      which position? Almost always yes though.

  16. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
    10 years, 7 months ago

    If Man City's DGW fixture is schedule for GW34, do we then exclude all City assets in our GW36 WCs and field 15 DGWers in GW37.. Specifically, do we exclude Aguero?

    1. Felix_Da_House_Cat
      10 years, 7 months ago

      thanks!

    2. ​

      I would put him in for 36 ft him out then probably ft him back

      1. ​
        10 years, 7 months ago

        actually, wouldnt play him at Southampton, would roll my 36 ft then probably get back for gw38 as one of two fts.

  17. Felix_Da_House_Cat
    10 years, 7 months ago

    when are the er,.. dgws?

    I think I read 34 and 37 right.. or did I imagine that.

    1. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
      10 years, 7 months ago

      likely to be scheduled then.. nothing confirmed as yet

  18. ZakAFC_

    Butland
    Simpson, Toby, VVD
    Mahrez, Alli, Özil*, Arnie

    Any Help?

    1. Jigger & Pony
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Similar position as me. Either get Kompany for Bellerin/Azpi or get Silva for Payet/Ozil

  19. Jigger & Pony
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Shift Sanchez out for Silva and play 343 of sell Ward for Kompany and play 433?

    1. AppleDunk
      10 years, 7 months ago

      the latter

    If City get a dgw34, then if you can get to this team that I will post below (or cheaper players from same teams if funds are tight) then you can have 11 doublers in gw34 and at least 10 maybe 11 starters in gw35. Saving WC for gw36.

        1. Jay_

          Yh that's a huge worry, I've just got a nice little mental image of my rivals cursing me when I BB in 37 🙂

      Not sure about Moreno (he's cursed) and Ighalo but it looks good!
      We're all going to have to play really smart now.

      1. Jay_
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Moreno can change to Janmaat or WBA or WAT defender. He's just there as a filler for now

  21. Marveaux or Kacaniklic
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Right, this is actually frying my brain. SSell Payet for Siggy or get a defender nd play 4/3/3 benching Payet. It would cost me 0.4 mil to get Payet back.

    1. In Like Flynn.

    Seems like everyone has really similar teams in general though.

    1. oghash

      Yeah, but now everyone here does people have stopped using the word template lol.

  26. oghash
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Asked earlier but didn't seem to be any on.

    Ultimate question if anyone is in who plays :

    Or doesn't matter, h2h league of two. You have 12 players this gw, full team of 11 and a sub on the second game day. They have 12 also but no keepers, 4 strikers and only 2 defenders.

    So they have to either make at least 1 loan for 3 points to have 11 played at the end of the game week. I'm thinking of doing at least 1 but possibly 4 loans just so I have some flexibility this gw, what do you think?

    1. TorresMagic™

        10 years, 7 months ago

        Not a great 12:

        Lloris

        Kolarov, Smith, Williams, munisia, targett

        Silva, mahrez, Alli, King (bou)

        Kun

        Shelvey on the bench

        1. ​

    @ Carrick and Balders + any other SKY players (Don't thank me just send cash).

    Chosen Sunday/Monday player you have but want to end up with.

    Saturday; Aguero (C) also transfer in for a S/M player best Saturday player for the S/M,
    Hang on this looks pants but you get the idea.

    I can come up with a specific process but I need tea and the family need me atm.

      ooh I get you, an FT for Aguero -> unowned spurs (Eriksen) then switch captain to Vardy. Then next week do Siggy/Ramsey -> Aguero Saturday night?

    Think I've got my team sorted, your thoughts?

    Hart
    Toby . Huth . Daniels . VVD
    Mahrez . Yaya . Alli
    Aguero (c) . Vardy . Kane (vc)

    Butland . Ivanovic . Özil . Firmino

    Morning DZ, what's to do here?

    Schmeichel
    Alderwerield, Van Dijk, Cedric
    Sanchez*, Siggy, Mahrez, Alli
    Kun, Vardy, Ighalo*

    Butland, Ozil*, Monreal*, Jagielka*

    2FT, 1.1m

    If i get Kane for Ighali i have 7.4m on a Sanchez replacement. Thoughts appreciated

      Ayew maybe a decent punt in that price bracket. Or Arnie/Shaq though the fixture isn't too plum.

        Cheers bud, was thinking Arnie but yea like the Ayew shout a lot.

    Butland Ruddy
    Kompany Huth Walker Moreno* Belllerin*
    Arnautovic Mahrez Alli Özil* Payet*
    Aguero Kane Vardy

    A) Sell Moreno, play 433
    B) Sell Payet/Özil

    1. Walsh

      B with Payet and then yo-yo him back in next week. Rest of your team is well enough sorted you could probably do with burning next transfer getting Payet back. Get Silva or Siggy.

        Thanks alot Walsh! Think I'm getting Silva 🙂

        1. Walsh

          Might lean Siggy. Silva has the pedigree but has attempted a total of zero shots in last two fixtures puts me off him a bit...

            Thanks, I'll think about it. Currently leaning towards Silva because it bothers me that I had a chance to get Siggy last round and didn't take it 😉
