Our first members article of the week delves into the Gameweek 10 data. We take time to assess the recent ascent of Joe Allen and Eden Hazard and analyse the City and United attacks, before casting an eye over Bournemouth’s improving playmaker and Tottenham’s raiding left-back.
Play Redmond (HUL) or Allen (whu) this GW?
Both?
Would love to but I have Kun, Costa and Lukaku up top!
Might have to be Lallana who sits on the pine this week...hmmm
Being stuck with Diomonde has saved me this headache as I have to play 3-5-2 every week. I would play redmond I think but it's a really close call
This
Redmond of course.
Thanks all, yep think I'll lock in Redmond and flip a coin between Allen and Lallana!
I'd drop lallana personally
Anyone considering Leicester players?
They have a really good set of fixtures coming up and I am thinking of getting Mahrez instead of Son.
Any thoughts appreciated 🙂I'd go with their defenders to be honest. I am not sure Mahrez has done anything to justify me forking out almost the same cash for him as I would for Hazard and Chelsea's fixtures also pick up in a few weeks
In a season with so many explosive midfield options I just can't get excited about spending that much on a Leicester player. Last season has gone
Just got Morgan in, keeping a close eye on mahrez also
A defender maybe.
Thanks Guys.....I will consider their defence then.
I've gone with Drinkwater as my 5th midfielder...
Coutinho or hazard?
No Liverpool or Chelsea cover at all currently besides injured Milner
Hazard for me
Coutinho
Cou, better fixtures, Haz can wait
Looking at fixtures I would go Coutinho.
Milner should start next game though.
Coutinho
Gundogan.
Hey guys,
Walcott and Rashford ---> Guendogan and Austin -4?
Seem good?
Worried that Walcott may not start and with Form/Fixtures/Value and Price rise it seems like a good time for my first hit.
Also have SanchezAustin not guaranteed to start v hull so no
What..why is that?
Inter Milan on Thurs. If starts that then prob won't. May well not start on Thurs but it's all guesswork
Ye fair you just answered my question
Honestly don't see that happening, but you make a good point
If I had to guess I'd agree with you just pointing out the risk of chasing team value
Why do you not think Austin will definitely not start? Has been recently
austin played the majority of his career in the lower leagues, they have a game every few days. I am sure he's not going to breakdown
Didn't play every game for qpr last season
Wait for news on Walcott on Friday. If he doesn't play, just move him.
I could do Antonio ---> Gundogan
Just wait until Friday, unless you've already got a seriously injured player.
Grant Pickford
Bellerin Pieters Holebas Smith Amat
Sanchez Coutinho Firminho Son Sterling
Aguero Benteke Diomande
1 FT, and 0,0 m in the bank?
Should I do Son or Sterling to Gundogan?
Or just wait until friday and do something else?I'm not a sterling fan honestly haven't considered him this year. That said I wouldn't do that transfer yet. What about sterling or son for redmond will give you some funds for when you want to upgrade grant, Amat or Diomonde?
Cheers. Everybody is talking about Gundogan and he is going up in price tonight, but maybe it`s better to stay calm
Who to shift for son got 8.4 max or keep for arsenal?
Not gundogan or Allen
Finally someone talking sense on here.
Who do you have from Liverpool? Afford any of them?
Have you considered Redmond?
Current mid
Sanchez firmino coutinhoFront 3
Deeney Aguero Austin
Don't want to double up with sotonI did Son to Gun an hour ago. Already have Allen a few weeks. 12k OR 104.1 TV Life is good
When are the prices rises these days
About 1.15 am
About 30 mins.
Cheers guys
Hameed in at 2 and Ducket to 4, Ballance out for free?
Get jos in, blows my mind he not in that team
Who for?
Thoughts on the following with no aguero, for -4 hit
Walcott to KDB (Probaby one for the next 3 GW)
Lallana to Gundagon
Valencia to Evans(Good upcomming fixtures)-4 taking Aguero out...I can't get my head around these posts.
im not taking aguero out i dont have him in the first place
Ah right, sorry, just stopped reading at no Aguero.
But started again at Gundogan!
Show us your full team.read my post below i detail my team
its 3 posts below
Who's the best fit in my 3-5-2 5th mid spot
Gundogan
Allen
Or 5.5 none Chelsea optionWhat are the odds Coutinho rises tonight?
Not predicted to on FFFix but he's close.How does Capoue to Allen -4 sound? I have the exact funds to do it right now.
Here is my team after my proposed 3 transfers and taking a -4 hit if i go ahead, thoughts would be highly appreciated
GK: Dea (Valdes)
DEF: Stones, VanDijk, Morgan (Evans, Williams)
MID: Redmond, Sanches, KDB, Gundagon, Firmino
STR: Lukaku, Wilson (Benteke)
Players transferred out: Lallana, Walcottt, Valencia
Players Transferred in: KDB, Gundagon, EvansBenching Benteke?
I think your team structure is all over the place and you need to work out which formation you want to play.
Do not take a -4 as you definitely don't need to. Think up a better transfer situation using 2FTs (or even just 1) to probably get rid of Valencia. Probably a really cheap downgrade as your defence is good already. Then wait until Friday. If Walcott is playing then:
De Gea
Stones VVD Morgan (Williams, ???)
Sanchez Firmino Walcott Lallana Redmond
Lukaku Wilson (Benteke)
Then next week downgrade one of your mids to someone cheap, then upgrade Wilson/Benteke to Costa/Aguero.
That's what I would do, hope it helps.dont you think no city cover is a massive risk though
No such thing as 'cover'. The massive risk is having a team of mid-priced players whereas most serious players will have a few of Costa Hazard Sanchez Aguero Firmino Coutinho and then an Arsenal/Spurs/Chelsea defender. I think your defence is ahead of the curve, but you don't need hits.
No need to bring in 2 city players in one week for a hit
Austin -4 vs Vokes? who gets more?
Austin long-term
and this gw? i am definitely getting austin long term i think. but should i take a hit and get him in this gw?
Gundogan may be good but let's be honest, he's no Joe Allen is he...
He doesn't need to be he plays for man city
This is true Allen 4th for mids SoT last 3
In Germany they call him Der Deutsche Joe Allen.
Gündogan looks a good option after tonight. He is on for a price rise and is very cheap. Could be an alternative to Allen. Think I will be doing Gündogan > Gündogan and take a -4 for Gündogan>Gündogan before the deadline.
Gündogan.hahaha. what?
Perfect move.
Almost an original joke on the bandwagon... Almost!
Gunga galunga
Do we want
A. Austin and Hazard or
B. Costa and GundoganI want Costa and Hazard. You might want A.
A by an incredible landslide.
A. Hazard + Gundogan
or
B. De Bruyne + AllenGundogan + Gundogan
B for me
Hey guys
Deeney to Austin is my move this week. Do it now to save .1?
Or wait until Southampton play Thursday?I did it. Keeping my fingers crossed.
did you have to?
he starts thursday so if you can wait in case of injury then wait
I don't know much about Southampton. What about Long coming back?
wait
Really hoping for big score from Firmino and Coutinho blank
Really hoping for both to be in double digits.
Ugh in knee-jerk territory
Wally Son to Haz Gund?
.2 to spare if so... tempted. Gundogan looking good? He's scoring lampard like goals from deep. Right place right time kinda jazz
Aguero, Costa, Haz and Gund overkill?I don't like Chelsea upcoming fixtures
Liverpool mids?
Best option
A) Allen with nyom bench defender
B) Gundogan with fodderWe've come a long way this season. Picking between fodder with fodder OR fodder with fodder.
A
Would it be stupid to transfer out Aguero and Antonio for Giroud and Hazard? (I already have Ozil, Costa and Sterling)
Yeah.
Yes. Giroud not nailed and Sergio coming off a two goal game.
I wouldn't do it.
yes
Not stupid, but I would certainly not do it.
Antonio for Gun?
I have had Capoue since the beginning and now he looks to fall again in the next couple of days. I am slowly losing the money I made. So, do I take -4 hit to get rid of him for Gundogan? I already have Allen so my plan would be to keep both and see how they do as time goes along.
Yep. Pull the trigger. No risk, no reward.
Probably go for it. On a similar note, I'm considering capoue to Allen for -4. Yay or nay?
Thanks. Yes, I think Allen is worth a hit. This weekend might be tough, but after that, Stoke has a few nice fixtures.
Lloris + Payet + Capoue + Deeney to
Heaton + Hazard + Gundogan + Austin.
-12 and perhaps a little crazy but I think it sets up my team a lot better for the next 4-5 GWs.I also have Gundogan to come in for the suspended Arnautovic this week (rather than Capoue).
Thoughts?Yep. Do it.
worth a -4 hit
GK: Dea (Valdes)
DEF: Stones, VanDijk, Morgan (Evans, Williams)
MID: Redmond, Sanches, KDB, Gundagon, Firmino
STR: Lukaku, Wilson (Benteke)
Players transferred out: Lallana, Walcottt, Valencia
Players Transferred in: KDB, Gundagon, EvansYes. Worth it.
No.
No
Sterling to Hazard for free ideal move?
Great move
Ozil > Coutinho for free?
Giroud back helps Ozil
Foster (Japu)
Walker Mustafi Williams (Kelly Amat)
Sanchez Firmino Coutinho Allen (Fletcher)
Aguero Deeney Lukaku
Should my free be used on:
A. Williams > Morgan
B. Deeney > Austintime of price change now clocks gone back?
or does that make no difference?
In about 10 mins or so I think.
Call me a genius but I'd say it makes them an hour earlier
Still happens same time here after clock change. 2:15pm NZT before and after change
