In spite of a five-match Gameweek, there’s still plenty to pore over in our first members’ article of the week. We cast an eye over City’s troubles on the road, Bournemouth’s upturn in output, Marko Arnautovic’s home comforts and the contrasting fortunes of Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy up front in recent matches.
Hi all.
1. Best Kompany replacement...
2. Aim for WC- GW 33 or GW
Schmeichel, Butland
Toby, Komp, Williams, Fran, Fonte
Eriksen, Siggy, Mahrez, Payet, Stan
Aguero, Vardy, Kane
1ft, 4.2m in bank.Williams or Dawson
So maybe Dawson then I guess
Not going to remove Kompany so which to start
A) Azpi (West H)
B Fonte (Liv)B
Thanks Berb
Azpi, but why not remove him? No FTs?
Have 1FT but would ideally like to save and if he doesn't drop in price i may aswell bench
But he's out for a month ......
He will drop on in price
CHE : WHM 42
SOT : LIV 102

How does this look for a WC team? What to change?Wow im like 2.7m out of that team - you must have some hench TV
I should prolly read up on DGWs since i was away for a day or so.
It comes down to WC 33 80% of people will be doing i reckon?Yup!
Just watching STK/STH.
Imbula really doesn't know how to pass a ball does he? Poor first touch too.
Tadic: my idea of the worst diver in the EPL. Constant playacting and milking fouls. Nasty little oik.Fixtures, with added DGWness! A different point of view:

😀
My pleasure!
Brilliant, this is all we need for the planning, Doos!
You're welcome. 🙂
Looking at this, think I'll get late to the Leicester defence party rather than go Williams for one week punt (Kompany replacement).
Simpson ftw.
txs - thinking Fuchs or Huth for the added attacking threat. Don't need to think about budget before WC33
finding that a bit hard to read/interpret in current format - can you link a spreadsheet if you have one please
Email? I will send you one, Zophar.
thank you mate
its zophar@gmail.com
Are we going TC or BB GW34?
Depends on defence.
@Prophet
Vardy->Palouschi for me this weekSeriously?
Cant you read his tone? Too serious.
Why not?
Anyone can score vs Villa.Think he will do a brace. Might even captain Ivanovic vs WHU
Hmmm...
I was thinking of doing Aguero > Jerome...
Looking to WC in GW33 but what should I do this week?
Get rid of Kompany?
DDG / Butland
Toby / Kompany / Dawson / Daniels / Simpson
Mahrez / Ozil / Payet / Arnie / Siggurdson
Kane / Vardy / AgueroDaniels to Williams?
Still injured I think.
Reply fail.
Any news on Ayew??
Still injured I think.
Kompany replacement for the next 2 GW's:
Dawson or Williams?Williams
Dawson
Right, time to start planning the wildcard/ bench boost/ triple captain
My initial thoughts are to get 16 players ready for GW 34 using subs/ taking hits. Then WC gw35. Then triple captain gw 37.
Thoughts?(bench boost GW 34)
My thoughts are it's not fair you get 16 players and I only get 15 🙂
Ha ha, whoops- getting too excited
Sanchez to Siggy with FT for this GW, nothing itb and only way to afford Siggy, worth it as a punt ?
WC to use in GW33Go for it. I smell a haul.
Me too oh wisen one
Yes. And give Siggy the armband.
... oooofff ...
They are playing Villa
A haul for Kane coming up this week
Siggy v Kane ?
So our season plans for DGWs and Blank lies with Liverpool. That is kinda scary right?
It's the High Road To Hell. 😉
It's like a big f***** trap tbh! Are the fpl gods toying with us even til the end?!?!?!?
Last season's Liveprool DGW disaster keeps playing on my mind.
The thought of buying Moreno is like eating ****!
This is my plan guys: Kompany > Ivan this week for free. Keep Ivan for (West Ham, Aston Villa, Swansea). Then switch Ivan to Smalling in GW34 for his DGW v Palace & Villa.
A. Yay
B. NayNay. Chelsea are faltering again.
Hmmm. This Kompany replacement is doing my head in. Don't want Williams as I've got Fabianski.
Do you have Spurs cover? Best defensive record as of yet.
I've got Wimmer. Plus Alli and Kane so can't double up
Would much rather get Smalling in now...
Not the best 3 fixtures coming up. But easier to bank a DGWer and move on right?
Currently have only 3 DGW 34 players so no optin but to WC GW33 for me....
Me too. 🙂
I would have like to be different and do it for the second DGW but hey ho....
Trying to remind myself that manure, pool, the arse are sh!t, may go with some different players to spice it up..
I've got no WC lol. I'll probably end up with 7/8 at max 🙁
No WC and can get maybe 10 without hits. Surely a hit or two is worth it over the next few weeks? 🙁
It probably is
I have 4, so can get 8 DGWers without a hit. Borderline.
still not enough... saying that it's tough getting rid of Ali, Kane, Mahrez so might be worth considering
All depends on an Everton TGW for me.
Everton TGW would be a bonus....
I don't think so - even the key players would get pulled off for a rest in one or two of the matches. 3 matches in 7 days is both physically and mentally exhausting when conducted at the EPL game rate.
So I've got Kompany and Ayew out this weekend - was hoping to play both! Only 1FT - who is higher priority to remove? And any suggestions who to buy?
A) Kompany
B) Ayew
Defence: Williams (AVL) - Azpi (WHM) - Huth (cpa) Francis (tot)
Midfield: Toure (MUN) Mahrez (cpa) Arnie (wat) Eriksen (BOU)
Thanks! 🙂Kompany to Alderweireld?
Thanks, looks a decent option if don't need the cash next week!
I love the sound of a lawn mower in the morning. Reminds me of summer 🙂
That's the sound of your gf moaning because you didn't take out the garbage.
😉Fortunately, that cheater's gone 😀
Apocalypse - now? 😉
Ha. When there's no napalm around you just have to make do 😉
If you buy bamboozled jelly beans, you can get the lawn clippings flavour.
Is that what the channel 4 teletext guy is doing these days. Does he own puppies too?
Must do.
I got a lawnmower to mow our "lawn" (chicken run) on Feb 27/28th. I'm so glad I did - it would be a nightmare now.
No WC so I need to start getting those DGW bodies in. Thoughts?
Lloris Henessey
Kompany* Dier Bertrand Morgan Rangel
Ozil Payet Sigurdsson Mahrez Lingard
Kane Aguero Vardy
A) Kompany > Sakho
B) Vardy > Lukaku
C) Both for a hit?Maybe save, except you expect a price drop in Kompany.
Although Lukaku looks likely to outscore Vardy, maybe give Vardy one more week against Palace.I could save...but very dicey there because 1) Kompany will drop, 2) Lukaku will rise.
0.2 swing...and without WC + DGWs coming up...I can't afford those swings 🙁Lukaku may rise tonight but I doubt 0.2. Kompany will definitely not be falling tonight so I would expect 0.1 drop this week. Go with your gut, good luck
Why Sahko over Arsenal coverage if you don't mind me asking
I will be looking to get Arsenal defence in by GW34...but I can only afford Mert/Gabriel.
Will wait til GW33 or 34 to make the call depending on who pairs up with Kosc when he's back. Too uncertain to make the call now.
Bertrand/Dier would make way for Mert/Gabriel - same price point.
Liverpool & Arsenal forward lines very similar atm.
All capable on their day, none in great form, certainly not nailed (form & return from injury)
Sturridge, Benteke, Origi vs Wellbeck, Giroud, WalcottYup. All in need of a reshuffle in the summer too. I wouldnt go near any for FPL
How am I looking for this week? Quietly confident. Is my team set up right? Silva bench?
Butland
Toby, Fuchs, PVA
Siggy, Firmino, Alli, Mahrez
Aguero, Kane(C), Lukaku
Silva, Wolly, BellerinLooks alright.
Looks right to me Bubz.
Maybe Siggy captain though. Hmmm.
I would not advise that. Happy enough with his points.
Swansea as a whole don't appeal to me as an attacking force with so few chances created. And they do tend to adapt to their opponents for better or worse.
Arsenal, United, Chelsea up next? No problem - we'll up our game and match you in pure football.
Villa, Norwich, Newcastle you say? Cool we'll pretend we're a bunch of headless chickens.Haha yeah good point
Planning GW33 WC.
With Kompany injured and a midfield of Arnie / Silva / Payet/ Ozil / Payet and 2 FT am thinking of two options
1) Kompany to Ivanovic and Silva to Siggy
2) Arnie to Siggy, Silva to Alli and play AoA and then Ivanovic next week
Which sounds better for the next 2 weeks?one of those Payets should be Mahrez!
Would you WC this in 33 or 36?
Elliott/Hennessy (both due DGWs - 34 elliott, 3 for hennesy)
Ward, Kompany, (DGWx2, DGW34) huth, dier, bertrand
Firmino, Barclay, (DGWx2) wijnaldum (dgw34) mahrez, alli
Aguero (dgw34) vardy, kane
I can form a DGW full 11 without hits by 34 so would triple captain that week.
Likely get arsenal players and 1 man utd 1 liverpool for that
But 34 looks to have better sides on dgws if i wanted to BB insteadWhat's wrong with this, then? 😕
DGW 34:
Hart
Monreal, Ogbonna, Moreno
Özil, Payet, Firmino, Alli
Kane, Lukaku, Agüero
Butland; Mahrez, Alderweireld, Simpson … 0, 0.1 ITB, TC: 109.2, SV: 106.6Gonna be boosting then Doos?
I reckon. Therefore may have Gomes instead of Butland.
Not sure yet on what to do. But i think i will be keeping Mahrez for sure. Not sure about the rest.
Neither am I.
I would think that its too much to keep 3 from LEI and TOT. I would maybe keep Kane and Mahrez. Those are the two main candidates. The rest i could ship possibly. Even if Toby keeps a CS in on game, there is a good chance he can get outscored by a DGW defender. Not sure, but just thinking out loud.
I might think of getting Sanchez for the DGW's if he picks up a little.Look at Tottenham's last 5 fixtures:
TOT : BOU 361 liv 179 MUN 223 sto 218 ... ... ... ... WBA 360 che 135 SOT 242 ... ... ... ... new 406
As it stands, I can't afford Sánchez. Agüero would have to get injured.That is absolutely brilliant tho... God. Let me check what i can do with my TV.
Actually i might Lose Toby then since i dont see a lot of CS potential there, would give you enough for sanchez possibly
not worth keeping Toby from DGW34, should be possible to find DGW'ers that will outscore him - WBA at home in GW35 or not
Thats what i think as well actually
The thing is, he just has to rack up a few bonus, and he's ahead.
Yea if you were boosting i'd say Gomes or even Robles - though EVE can't defend for nuts.
If that's a WC team, the money saved could then upgrade Moreno to Sakho or someone more nailed on in the LIV defence.
Simpson has to stay at that price, Alli and Kane will surely be forced to perform til season's end so I see no problems keeping them.Cheers, Shifty. This is why Gomes:
WAT : STO -18 ars -341 EVE -65 wba -50 whm -229 [ nor 57 ] AVL 272 liv -163 nor 57 SUN 215
Terrific end game there ...
Ogbonna is nailed? Tnx.
Yep.
Would look at a juicier GK combo to be honest - DdG over Hart imho, and ditch Butland.
De Gea is useless. 🙂
Butland IS now going, for Gomes.surely 2-3 cs for him with those fixtures
That's pretty good actually. Only ones I'm not sure on are ogbonna (nailed?) and Butland (agree with Gomes).
Nailed.
Gomes is in!
Thanks! 🙂
1FT, 1.6 ITB
Butland - Myhill
Otamendi - Dawson - Fuchs - Wimmer - Smith
Eriksen - Firmino - Sigurdsson - Mahrez - Watson
Aguero - Kane - VardyTransfers done
Aguero > Berahino
Butland > FosterLiar! Gameweek transfers 0
Takes a little to UPDATE!
(SHHHH KUQI SHHHHHH Christina is around)
Is the fpl fixtures page completely updated now?
still waiting on everton 3rd DGW
Thanks Old School.
For the people who don't have bench boost available, is it even worth stocking up on DGW players for GW34? If you have 15 players with 2 fixtures but 4 are sat on the bench is it better to keep players like Kane and Mahrez who only have 1 fixture for GW35 and even further down the line?
No need to have 15 if you don't have the bench boost chip.
This is what i currently have draughted for the DGW:
Elliot (SWA, MCI); Robles (SOT, liv)
Monreal (PAL, WBA); Rojo (AVL, PAL); Olsson (WAT, ars); Sakho (bou, EVE), Huth (WHM)
Barkley (SOT, liv), Ozil (PAL, WBA); Payet (lei, WAT)/Mahrez (WHM); Firmino (bou, EVE); Sanchez (PAL, WBA)
Kane (sto), Lukaku (SOT, liv); Rashford (AVL, PAL)/Berahino (WAT, ars)
So I have calls to make on whether to choose Payet or Mahrez and stick with Kane. Going with Mahrez and Kane who both have singles would leave me without needing to make any transfers for GW35
Needs to be a balance I'd say
Here is what I'm looking at getting for gw34 on wc and playing bench boost, can I get a rmt
De Gea, Hart
Bellerin, Dawson, Moreno, Alderwireld, Smalling
Firmino, Mahrez, Payet, Ozil, Lingard
Iheanacho, Lukaku, AgueroDon't get Iheanacho...
I thought it's for rotation reasons?
He won't play much.
Also short on funds
Not bad.
Not iheanacho imo, other than that looks good
Hart won't keep a CS without Kompany/Ota
Keliche is a waste
Other than that it's good.
Morning all
So currently I only have 4 dgw34 players, but with 2fts currently. Looks like wc 33 right? I'd always planned to wc36/bb37 but you guys are swaying me...You can still get 9DGW'ers for GW34 and play 2 TOT/LEI and bench other TOT/LEI - would put you in a great position for GW35 as well when both Spurs and Leicester have brilliant fixtures
Cheers great advice. This ain't easy!
