Next up this Tuesday, we delve into the Gameweek 6 Opta data in our first members article of the week.
A pair of Palace and Liverpool attackers come under analysis in light of their weekend showings, while we also cast an eye over Arsenal’s overlooked wide man and Burnley’s chief creator.
RMT
Pickford
Shaw Baines PvA
Ozil Firmino Antonio Bolasie
Aguero Ibrahimovic(C) Deeney
(Heaton, Capoue, McAuley, Amat)
Good to go?
Cap aguero
Keep captain zlatan youll thank me later
yes g2g
Deeney > Rashford is madness with Deeneys home clash against Bournemouth coming up, isn't it?
Otherwise, I'm saving transfer.
Yes
Depends on the context (i.e. your team) though. If no other pressing issues then yeah go for it
Utter
Got to get out Gray before tonight's drop.
Deeney? Rashford? Defoe?
0.8 ITB, 1FT.
Heaton (Jaku)
Valencia Walker Williams (Stones), (Amat)
Firmino Ozil Tadic Barkley (Leko)
Kun Lukaku GRAY
All opinions welcome!
I said it last week and I'll say it again. Charlie Austin, fixtures won't matter
Tadic gives enough Soton cover, and currently have no Watford for their easy run...
Or I could save FT, play Stones, but take the price drop... Not too appealing.
I'd go for Defoe
I'd lean towards Defoe I think.
Callum Wilson. Look at those fixtures. Means you can concentrate on other areas for a few weeks.
G2G for this GW?
Pickford
Evans Holebas Williams
Antonio Capoue Sanchez Sterling
Aguero Ibrahimovic(C) Lukaku(vc)
bench: Jakupovic Snodgrass Collins Amat
2 FT next week to fix few problems like Jaku,Collins and maybe something else..
Looks OK. Not convinced Capoue is a 4th midfielder however.
Looks great but he's got Snodgrass (and not a Fletcheresque) in there so the balance is just right.
Currently on my wildcard
Boruc / Pickford
Williams / Lovren / Browning / Evans / Holebas
Sánchez / Firmino / Mané / Carrick / Walcott
Agüero / Rashford / Lukaku
Really like this draft however obviously the defence is sh*te. Any other 4.5ers apart from Holebas I could go for?
Just over but how about Smith at Bournemouth?
If you're happy to double up that is, otherwise they have a bad run coming but JEvans could be an option
Personally, I'd downgrade Mane to Lallana and Lukaku to Defoe or equivalent and invest money in Defence, I reckon any points you'll lose will be made up for with a couple quality defenders.
Baines news is dissaponting to say the least...
Worth getting Coleman on the FT? Already have Valencia and can't see a better option this week
Tricky one. Coleman 5.4 iirc? I'm not convinced the premium's worth it over Williams though his bappage looks lacking. Personally, I'm pondering Ars or Kelly.
I'm looking at Davies, after the Chelsea game they have a great run and he a baps magnet.
Not a bad shout at all. The run does look good
What's the Baines news?
Stuani to net one this weekend?? Thoughts?
Nah
oooooooo Alves 15-pointer
Looking for some Arsenal midfield cover on a budget:
A) Iwobi
B) Xhaka
?
Don't bother would be my advice. But iwobi of the two.
(Sigh) Been trying to talk myself into it to cover their run of matches but it is probably a heart/head miss-match...back to the drawing board...
Iwobi of the 2, but I'd rather find better value elsewhere, and upgrade to Ozil / Sanchez. Depends on the rest of your team.
Just got the calculator out again!
Not sure whether to save 1 FT or use:
Foster (Heaton)
Holebas, Gibson, Van Aanholt (Evans, Davies)
Sanchez, Chadli, Puncheon, Mane, Capoue
Ibrahimovic, Lukaku (Llorente)
4.1 itb
save. and try to bring Kun in the next week
everyone knows the reason for firminho lack of points. he is not using nivea cream like the others.
top 5 4.5 defenders over next few weeks?
It's hard enough with 5.5 available for each right now.
Holebas, Kone, Francis, Evans and Kelly imo.
Robertson instead of Kelly and rest the same
Replace Baines(-4) or let Amat play? The rest is Holebas, Evans and Kingsley
I'd play amat just. If you could only field 10 I'd go minus 4 though
Please help me out here guys!
These are 3rd and 4th defenders and my 3rd striker options (no cover from either of the teams mentioned)
A) Austin + Smith + Cedric
B) Rashford + Britos + Francis/Gibson
C) Deeney + Britos + Chambers
C and hope friend slips to 4.4 for me
B
All of a sudden Lukaku looks much less attractive with mci and bur after this week...
Indeed... swaps out quite easily though with Benteke, Rashford, Defoe et al in the wings
Frustrating season. You pick a player and by the time you press confirm he's already out of date! 🙂
City defence not great though. Id back him to score and Burnley will get rolled over by the better teams IMO.
Yeah, could go either way on closer inspection and when FTs are as precious as they are... Looks like prime troll territory.
I think the fixture blinds the thinking sometimes. It looks a hard game but we're not predicting an Everton win, just Lukaku to score against a leaky defence.
Fingers crossed for a good week this week. Would be nice to have the highest score on the Scoutcast for once!
Ibra (c) will surely see you and Joe right up there
Rooting for you Andy! You're 'due' 😉
Ibra (c) like me surely?
The Scoutcast is tonight, right? Good luck. 🙂
2 hours ago.
Thanks! Will watch it later.
Capoue + Snodgrass owners. Who you benching this week?
Snodgrass. Though if Baines and Smith stay injured ill play both in AOA
Is KDB price protected for a period of time?
No, only when red flags changes to available.
Considering benching him and using 2 FTs next week simply because I'm happy with my XI. Should I ship before his price drops though?
Well i would say the tactical advantage 2 ft over an int break will probably out weight 0.1 - 0.3 drop but it depends how confident you are with the rest of your team i guess
Pretty confident TBH, and the 2 FTs would be very useful
Depends when you bought etc. It's a matter of 0.1 more or less so getting the right replacement is more important.
No doubt a stupid question but in the FPL app what is the significance of the white star/blue circle that is next to some players names?
It mean's they're in the dream team
*means
Dream team is my guess. Click the star.
In the team of the season, i.e. Highest points scorers in that position
Ahh, thanks
What would you do with this lot?
Pickford Jaku
BAINES Walker Holebas Evans Amat
Sanchez Firmino Antonio Sterling Capoue
Aguero Lukaku Deeney
1 FT, 0 in bank
Seems Baines will probably be out so could replace him with Coleman or cheaper, take a hit and lose Walker for an Arsenal def or just leave it & try to fix it up in the international break.
Cheers for any advance.
AoA and fix in international break is my plan with a similar team. I may even go -4 and make 3 changes
Which 2 would you play?
Holebas for sure. Maybe Evans but could go Walker for attacking returns plus outside chance of clean sheet?
Tough one considering his price and being rested. Cheers for the advice. 🙂
Holebas Evans
Walker and Holebas, no question.
Both much more attaching, and I don't fancy WBA to keep a clean sheet vs Defoe.
The WBA defence ownership is a factor. Outside Defoe, will anyone else score?
Save and AOA.
Unlikely to find a better time to play both your 5th mid and 3rd striker than Bou (H).
I would play AoA and play Evans and Holebas
AOA with Holebas and Evans seems a decent bet. Maybe Baines > Coleman/Clyne etc
Cheers all. Never liked my defence 😕
Any risers/fallers tonight lads ?
http://www.fplstatistics.co.uk/
Few risers if any but should be lots of fallers.
Good stuff cheers pal
After the ScoutCast I am really tempted to do
Antonio to Lallana (Have Mane) Or Antonio to Walcott (Have Sanchez)
Im going to do Antonio to Son next week i think, feeling radical.
Would keep Antonio, I am. Boro's defence is not good and Antonio is joint top scorer.
I think Antonio deserves a few more games. Walcott game time still worries me, perhaps unfairly. Lallana looks good but Antonio still has fixtures also
The picture on this article wasn't what I wanted.
Planning Benteke > Deeney this week to free some funds up.
Thoughts?
No Dann = Benteke headers.
Good point TM. Have double Everton defence so just seems wrong move to keep
I get what you mean. Maybe you have the wrong defenders 😛
Palace vs West Ham is what dreams are made of.
I know mate I need rid of one for Spurs coverage but planned Benteke> Deeney and Chadi > Walcott next.
Might potentially bench Benteke and ride out Friday behind the sofa
😯 😉
Do you think Deeney > Defoe?
I'm torn between the 2 myself...
I don't like Defoe tbh
Kos, Mon or Mus?
Feel like Monoreal just because I don't think I've ever owned him. Kos always gets injured for me when I need him
Monreal safest option for me.
Yep. If Baines doesn't look positive then I'll make the move on Friday
Mon
Cheers. Congrats on the new arrivals. I was lurking earlier in the day
Thanks for that. Still a long way to go
Wish you all the best
LMS league should be up to date so congrats if you are still in it 🙂
Can I get a Mulligan
No golf allowed, sorry.
🙁
Had a shocker in Sportsdeck 🙁
I have been on holiday. Sportsdeck, Sky & my draft team have gone steadily downhill unfortunately.
You're still doing quite well. Hope you had an enjoyable holiday 🙂
Thanks. Yes doing ok in it but not as well as I was and I keep meeting pretty good teams in the head 2 heads.
Holiday was great thanks. It was the first time I have been to the region I come from since I was 18. I had forgotten how beautiful it is
Very nice, not much you can do in the H2Hs with all the variety around. I need to save a few transfers but team is still a mess.
Yeah the Cotswolds are lovely but full of the very wealthy these days it seems
Should I give Payet another chance or trade him for -4?
And who should I get for him?
I would keep Payet for this week surely home to Mid.
RMT please!
Pickford
Valencia - Jagielka - Holebas
Sánchez (C) - Sterling - Antonio - Capoue
Kun - Ibra - Lukaku
Jaku - Evans - Whelan - Amat
Son... again Goal. mercy, what a streak, to the pt almost Capouesque
can he keep it up...? trouble is the rotation if not...
Can't compare their stats. Son has more shots so more chance of keeping up.
One of 5 moves looks like..
A) Gray to Auston on a free
B) Gray to Wilson on a free
C) Gray to Rashford/Deeney, Baines to Francis -4
D) Gray to Rashford/Deeney, PVA to Francis -4
E) Gray to Rashford/Deeney, Antonio to Snoddy -4
just blown away by the allardyce saga.........i mean what was he thinking
banging on for years about english managers not being given a chance, then when given the golden opportunity, he does this
i just dont get it...
is Barkley going to drop tonight?
50/50, getting in the danger zone.
