After delving into the Defensive data over the last four matches earlier this week, we turn our attentions to the centre of the park. With double Gameweek shopping in mind, we compare some of the West Ham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle midfielders, before casting an eye over the upturn in form from Leicester’s talismanic wide man.
Cech (Schmeichel)
Bellerín - Toby - Azpi (Williams and VVD)
Mahrez - Ozil - Siggy - Arnie (Ritchie)
Kun - Vardy - Rondon
1 FT
What to do before W´ing at 33??
ITB?
0.7
Siggy to Willian maybe.
That´s what I think I will do, yeah, thanks mate. 🙂
Alexis playing CF for Chile. Let's see if he's brought his shooting boots...
Keep me posted....I'm being forced to watch some daft murder programme with the wife...grrrr.
Curious to know:
Does the DGW for Everton and Palace change the minds of those who were going to WC in GW33 to now?
And is anyone who is NOT WC'ing going for any Palace, or just Everton?
Need a few injuries to change to 32.
Still 33.
Same
I'm going WC in GW32. Partly because I'm miles behind and need to do something in my league. Plus I'm scared I won't be able to afford the team I want if I wait. So I'll bring in 3 x Eve now
Interesting points fellas.
Help my friends
A) ddg + jags + ozil
B) robles + rojo + sanchez
B)
Is that mainly due to sanchez?
Well, not exactly
I don't think Robles and Rojo is much worse than DDG Jags
OK, I'm stuck! Looking at this team for GW34 but need to save £1.3m. One option is to trade down Firmino to Milner but will he play if everyone is fit? Other ideas please?
DDG, Cech
Smalling, Bellerin, Sakho, Clyne, Funes Mori
Barkley, KDB, Firmino, Ozil, Shelvey
Aguero, Lukaku, Rashford
Bring in Defoe/ Azpi in GW35
Bring in Deeney/ Ighalo for -4 in GW36
Bring in Mata in GW37
Thanks 🙂Downgrade a GK.
Yeah, that works too.
Guess I'm keen to have these 2 throughout due to their fixtures. Who would you switch down to?
Elliot does a job in 35.
Surely just accept the risk on Rojo and downgrade Smalling?
Nice idea - do you think he's pretty nailed on looking ahead?
Yeah, CBJ is going to be backup and there are no senior players challenging for that position. Some risk he may be subbed before 60, but equally a chance he gets subbed on 65 and banks a CS that the other defenders go on to lose.
Barkley to Lennon. Lennon in good form
Thanks - like this idea too
Darmian or Rojo?
Or neither?
Really fancy a Man u defence for DGW and can't afford DDG.Rojo
Thanks
Evening all. Given the DGW33 news, what the best option for this team? Saving WC for 36
______,
Bellerin, _____, Dann
Sanchez, Ozil, Payet, _____
Kun, Kane, Lukaku
Elliot, ______, SImpson, WIlliams
A) DDG, Rojo, Mahrez, Ali - Free
B) Robles, Smalling, Mahrez, Ali - Free
C) DDG, Rojo, Lennon, Mahrez - -4
D) Robles, Smalling, Lennon, Mahrez - -4
B)
B
A or B
Cheers all
Anyone still thonking they'll WC36 and BB37?
Yep, still will. Only decision is whether to take a hit to get Lennon in and who to TC (Luaku in 33 or Sanchez in 34)
Not worried about lack of options in GW37 due to rotation?
No I think there will be options especially from teams in a relegation fight or CL/EL spot. Just as much threat of rotation in 34 imo
This pitch looks good, is it the next Argentina game where the pitch is horrible?
Im not watching but someone said that earlier so yes..
What's the verdict on Wijnaldum under Rafa?
Compare the last 2 🙂
Playing too far back for my liking
Cheers guys
All you '2 or more eve/cry' drafters - how are you tackling gw35? I just can't get a decent gw35 squad if I push the eve/cry issue further than just Lukaku
No WC?
No, but I think my q still stands for anyone wild carding in 33. Is there a team that 1) makes use of cry/eve, 2) has substantial dgw 34 coverage and 3) plays an 11 in 35? If you still have a wc by 35 then yeah, it's far easier.
Personally I'm still gonna wc in 37Keeping a couple of LEI/TOT players makes it pretty easy and then two ft's before 35.
My draft has 4 DGW33 players, 11 DGW34 players and 11 GW35 players (after 2 FTs).
Woah, good work, I just can't seem to put one of those together!
Robles is easy to fit in if your second keeper plays 35.
Chile vs Argentina is all action 🙂
Aguero still uninjured after 8 minutes.
on tv?
It is for me 😎
Which Everton/Palace mid is the best option for a 2 DGW punt?
Bolasie/Lennon/Barkley or Barry(Triggerlips)
How does this look?
GW33 WC
Robles Mignolet
Dann Gabriel Rojo Simpson S.Taylor
Sanchez Mahrez Payet Firmino Bolasie
Lukaku Kane Aguero
GW34 BB:
Dann + Bolasie -> Bellerin + Lanzini (-4)5 outfield blanks for 35 and 1 FT?, prepared to take another hit?
I count 10 players with games in 35 once the 34 transfers are done?
Ignore this I'm being stupid lol, might just play with 10 men
Fair enough
Robles Elliott
Kosc Smalling Reid Sakho Ward
Sanchez Payet Lanzini Firmino Coutinho
Aguero Lukaku Mitrovic
0.2 itb
That's not so bad is it?Very decent
Cheers mate, try find something to improve on 😉
Not worried about getting rid of Kane? I wish I could go all in with 15.
I like the look of your team except for the Liverpool double up mids, might be golden, might be overkillI am extremely worried but I decided to go all out because it's a game and why not. The idea of 30 players is so exciting
My Liverpool biased is convinced it's going to be Golden 😀Liverpool attacking double up is more recommended than a defensive one, just quite expensive but not sure there's really anyone else in that price range.
Liking the mitrovic pick though! The bench boost has certainly made the wildcard even more appealing!
Solid mate although not keen on a West Ham double up in midfield
Lingard in for Lanzini is something I'm thinking about
i like that
When are people WC then?
33 still. More so now
33 or 36
Cheers guys.
33... seems like it need the least amount of brain power
36
32
Chile score 1-0
No Sanchez involvement.
Many Everton and Palace are you getting if going gw33 wc?
3, maybe 4
Probably only Lukaku/Robles
3
Lukaku obviously
You love Barkley and who else?Come round to the Robles idea.. can't really say no
Henners, Barkley, Bolasie and Luka
2-4
3 or 4
4. Robles, lennon/barkley, lukaku and ward. Will get rid of ward for 34 then.
4 🙂
Right, so Lukaku, Robles/Hennessy, Barkley and maybe 1 other. Not far from where I am
Lukaku/Robles
Chile 1-0
🙂
Bein Sports 3?
Play Lukaku (mun) or Mahrez (SOU) gw32
M
Would you WC this
Hennesy Elliott
Bellerin Ward Huth Dier Bertrand
Payet Wijnaldum Barkley Mahrez Alli
Kane Vardy Aguero
Can get 9 dgw34 without hits and 4 dgw 33 if i go Vardy to Lukaku
Can the TC 34 and WC after for the 37 bench boostId wc36 i think
Who would you get in after lukaku?
Im without arsenal and man utd attack
Thinking arsenal but no utd is risky
Who will get most points for Chelsea vs Villa?
Ivanovic
Chile down two players to injury inside 20 minutes...
2 injured Chilean mids before the 20 minute mark.
How does this look? Bare in mind I used BB already so don't need more than 11 DGW players in 34.
Robles, Elliot
Bellerin, Rojo, Sakho, Ward, Simpson
Sanchez, Ozil, Firmino, Mahrez, Barkley
Aguero, Lukaku, Rashford
2 FTs will give me 11 in GW35.Good. I'm going to have more or less the same except Kane, Lennon and payet instead of rashford, Sanchez and Barkley.
best dgw defender up to 5.0 with game in gw 35? Excluding Liverpool.
The one and only Janmaat
Gabriel
Good options. Will monitor both next gw. Thanks
Di Maria goal 1-1
1-1 Di Maria, Aguero assist
Points not added to FPL yet.
Because it was Banega assist 😉
I'm putting together an email...
Aguero assisting the assist.
Yeah, posted below. Wishful thinking...
Sorry it wasn't a Kin assist at all! My eyes!
Otamendi's only a tab end int he? Never noticed before
?
Tab end, small fag!
lol
a what
