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.
would you do payet to mane for a free transfer?
Yes. West Ham looked dire against Southampton. Liverpool have looked class and Mane may be the best pick.
Do you have another pool mid?
Yes if no other Pool midfielders
You're a manager playing away to Burnley, which is the best way to break down their defense?
A) Slick through balls from your visionary playmaker to your poacher striker
B) Pin point accurate crosses to your tall stronger striker
C) Just give the ball to your fast, agile nippy little striker and let him do it all
Not B
Maybe offer a bung to their keeper?
Don't let your forward drop back looking for the ball like Sturridge.
All of the above
Go Sanchez
Please tell me you like my WC team.
Pickford, Marshall
Kos, Walker, Coleman, Holebas, Amat
Sanchez, Sterling, Firmino, Lallana, Capoue,
Aguero, Defoe, Rashford
I like your WC team
Thanks, thats what I needed.
No. You will have to justify the team to yourself. I refuse to facilitate you neediness.
But you like it right?
All that matters is that you like it really
Yeah. That and good health.
Basically a slightly better version of my wildcard last week
Actually, remove slightly... Much better version
You are my new favourite commenter.
Like it ... Except for keepers
Any better 8.5 combo suggestions? I don't like them either but Hull and Sunderland rotate well, have good incoming fixtures and keepers just aren't really doing that much at moment.
At 8.5, no. You've got the best combo. I just prefer to put more $ in keepers.
Hmm, I could lose Walker or Coleman, but don't really want to. Back to the drawing board.
Better keepers than Marshall perhaps for 4.5m?
is Barkley dropping tonight?
Nope. tomorrow maybe. Hoping he doesn't.
really want to see if Walcott plays tommorow... before getting him
What's the news on Baines?
i have 1.0 itb
payet-mane or
payet-walcott and diomande-rashford?
How about Payet - Lallana and Diomande - Rashford?
What would you do with this lot:
Foster, Heaton
Van Aanholt, Gibson, Davies, Evans, Holebas
Sanchez, Chadli, Puncheon, Mane, Capoue
Ibra, Lukaku, Llorente
4.1itb 1ft
Get Aguero.
Llorente needs to become Aguero in the next wee or so
Ideally Llorente > Aguero but realistically Lukaku out after this GW and keep your midfield healthy
Yeah Llorente will mean I need to bring someone else down by 3 points or so, and the only options are mane/sanchez
Lose Lakaku for Aguero, then maybe upgrade defence or Puncheon with change.
i think it is very clear what you need to do - get aguero
Middlesborough are third for conceding headed chances, golden chance for Antonio to bounce back?
Very possibly, I'm on the fence as to whether to ditch him for a Pool mid. Antonio is quality, but West Ham just looked terrible against Southampton, all over the place and couldn't really get out of their half. If he's not getting the delivery...
I'll give him this last chance then its onto Lallana or Where's Wally
What other managers are involved in this sting thing then? Any names been leaked?
Did Son played in hole tonight?
*Refrains from making inappropriate joke here
Said the actor to the bishop
😆
Up front when Janssen was taken off
Those bringing in Rash.
Not bothered by two difficult away fixtures on the horizon?
I'm having such difficulty picking my third striker
Really can't choose between Rashford, Defoe or Deeney
Thoughts??
I went Deeney, nailed on and takes pens... I would like to go Rashford but I'm sure he'll be rested or used as a sub.
I am also torn on my 3rd striker. Rash feels like such a good pick this week, but I wonder over the next 5-6 gameweeks.
Deeney and Austin and yes even Wilson are also being heavily considered
Nah, very happy to take a punt on him. It's his spot to lose at the moment. Easy to swap out for Deeney if he stops scoring. Capoue can play for him if rested. Minutes is the only issue giving me pause for thought.
Worth the punt on this week alone. If he scores 1 or more he will rocket in orice
This has all the makings of Martial and Memphis from last year. Huge amount of hype and pickups only to end in tears.
What about Mhkitaryan from this year? Pre-season everyone was going mad about him.
Given he's currently uncertain to be in the starting XI at the moment and wanting to free up funds for my midfield, I want to downgrade Shaw to a £4.5m DF - who's my best option?
Holebas seems to be the current favourite on here but any other shouts?
Smith at 4.6 is an option.
It depends upon your rotation really as there isn't a 4.5 you would want to play every week
I did Shaw to Smith, but guess Smith is a risk with his facial injury
Smith or Francis
Thanks gents
So I'm pretty confused about the allardyce situation. Was he fired because of the 400k deal or the mean comments towards the FA.
I think the answer is yes ... Both played a part
Because he called Roy Woy. How dare he insult a man who wore that blazer as it ought to be worn. Not like this greedy fat man.
Walcott will he start tomo ag Basel? thnx
hope not
46 points from 6 players so far
Capping Suarez or Nolito ?
El pistolero
Foster Pickford
Valencia Baines Holebas Pieters Amat
Sanchez Sterling Coutinho Lallana Capoue
Aguero Lukaku Rashford
Thoughts on that squad?
Solid who you playing in goals this week?
Captain this week?
Which option?
A Bentekke Collins jaku
B Rashford Coleman Pickford -4
B if jaku is the only keeper you've
Given the attractiveness of Lallana and Wally is it even worth having a 3rd striker any more?
Each to their own but I think Hernandez is a bit of a looker also
Arnie and siggy to be added to those and I'm going 3-5-2
I know keeping tekkers and saving 2ft for iB makes sense but I still tempted to do Benteke→Defoe !!
Thoughts ?
Do it
Best mid to replace KDB apart from sterling & Sanchez? I'm thinking bringing in son
I'd prefer Walcott
Son is a good shout but I prefer a Liverpool mid. Manè/Coutinho ?
definitely go with a Pool mid.
I already have firmino. Worth doubling up?
Arnautovic could be a good differential
Bench one -
A. Matip (swa)
B. Holebas (BOU)
C. Williams (CRY)
I was on Matip but seeing Watford last night and given the fact that Bournemouth have scored in every game and Watford having conceded in every game, I'm tempted to bench Holebas now.
Thoughts?
A- sanchez and coutinho
B- sanchez and firmino
B
So Coutinho or Firmino eh? I've got Firmino as I think he will play a tad higher but such a close call with Liv mids
Walcott if he starts tomo, will he also play a good 70 min this gw? want to bring him in
Should do
cheers
Would you consider either move for a -4?
Redmond to Lallana
Baines to Koscielny
Nah.
Do it for free next week.
If I was to do one I think it would be Koscielny in the hope he makes up the -4 instead of Amat who I would be forced to play.
If Amat is your only option at the back, then probably go ahead with it.
both are good but redmond to lallana is a good shout
Not for -4.
Providing I have no midweek crisis am I gtg here? Cheers...
Pickford
Walker. Holebas. Koscielny Cout Capo Alexis Antonio Sterling
Aguero. Lukaku
Heaton. Lovren. Diomande. Kingsley
Coutinho Capoue Alexis Antonio Sterling
3 5 2. Using mobile so not sure how that panned out on screen.
Very nice
Cheers pal
Play Lovren over Walker?
Don't see us shutting out Spurs and he could get the assist or more
Nice team
If/when Holebas picks up his next yellow, might Robertson be a good alternative? They have some nice fixtures coming up.
Not a bad shout
He'll only be out for a week, not sure it's worth a transfer personally
Karius/Pickford
Walker, Williams, Holebas, McAuley, Kone
Sanchez, Son, Antonio, Puncheon, Lallana
Aguero, Ibra, Diomande
OR
Karius/Pickford
Walker, Williams, Holebas, McAuley, Kone
Sanchez, Sterling, Bolasie, Puncheon, Lallana
Aguero, Ibra, Diomande
The former probably.
Any particular reason? I think there is more quality in the midfield in A but in B, Sterling has far better fixtures than Son and City can't stop scoring at the moment.
On current form I think Son and Antonio are more likely to outscore Sterling and Bolasie (it's Bolasie I'm more worried about).
Good point. He has had a few shots off and made 4 assists in the last 4 games (only played about 20-30 mins in the first 2 games).
So....
Essentially. ..
Son n Antonio or Bolasie n Sterling???
B and S
Hahahaha touché but it is hard to give advice when you don't know the rest of the team.
Not really but fair enough pal.
Go for Bol and Sterl imo mate
I think you may be right. I need to hope they don't go up though. I can afford it to the penny at the moment and I have already made my transfers for this week.
No changes needed, right?
Foster (Jaku)
Shaw - Stones - Evans
Firmino - Sanchez - Snodgrass - Capoue
Lukaku - ibra (c) - Aguero
Gueye, friend, Amat
1FT 0.3 INB
Thanks DZ
I'm not of the Capoue-as-4th-mid school but yes, looks good within those parameters.
Neither, my WC will be my back up plan if needed. Cheers
Shaw would be my worry.
I think Blind will keep his spot.
Not sure I want to burn a transfer on Shaw, happy for friend of the off the bench this week , 2 FT always nice after Break
That's my thought. Or AOA.
I ha e Shaw and I am concerned what to do (because also holding on to Dann through injury). He may just be out of the XI. That would be a Mou tactic.
Bolasie or Redmond to keep?
Redmond still a good option - keep
Cool. And ditch Bolasie?
Up to you and what your pressing issues are. If you are on WC and have Lukaku, then ditch - fixtures for Toffees turn soon
It's actually for a draft league. I can get Iwobi in, and it looks like he's a starter now. So one o' them gotta go... I think they're both good. Great Everton fixtures, not great Soton.
Leave it then, looks good 🙂
this article would suggest Red.
This post is for my friends with Deeney up front like me, the question is what to do with him. Let's look at some stats:
Next 2 GWs
Bournemouth (9 goals conceded, 4 from Man City - this means 1 goal conceded per game taken out City)
Middlesbrough (9 goals conceded, 5 from two teams: Everton & Spurs)
This means that Watford probably will score only 2 to 3 goals max in the next 2 games, Deeney is only 1 out of 11 players.
If you have 1 FT, would you gamble with him or gamble with Rashford playing Stoke - 15 goals conceded or Defoe playing West Brom - 6 goals conceded?
