Next this Saturday, we catch up on the member’s area statistics over the last three rounds of fixtures with our usual post-Gameweek article.
We assess the lay of the land at Arsenal as a result of Olivier Giroud’s first-team return before analysing Tottenham’s man of the moment and Manchester United’s pair of form players.
West Ham and Everton also play a part in our thinking ahead of some fine upcoming fixtures.
Ake off back to Chelsea...scrap him from your plans probably
This ... maybe look at a Boro defender in the same price bracket [nice run of fixtures] or gamble that Smith [4m] will find his way back in the side ?
Not a -8. I will split the transfers over two weeks
Yeah, but Phillips is going up in price tonight...+0.1 and I cant do it then
Go for it then!
Brentford 5-1 Eastleigh certainly sticks out on the half time FA Cup scores. All other games are 0-0, 1-0 or 0-1.
or 1-1
COYB!!!!
miki/costa or ibra/hazard
mkhi hasnt established himself yet.
hazard plays well but not fpl wise.
ibra and costa look really good as their teams play now.
Ibra+costa
--------------------Foster-------------------
----------Alonso Brunt Jones-----------
Sanchez Hazard Alli Lallana Phillips
------------Aguero Ibrahimovic----------
--------------------------------------------------
Pickford Barnes Pieters Amat. 0ft 0.0itb
Aguero to Costa -4?
Money will open up either (Amat > Baines), (Pieters > Bellerin) or (Lallana > Coutinho) next week.
I would
no
Not for a hit
No way
don't see the need to take a hit.
defence is good enough to do the transfer week by week.
Do it next week
I mean with a free transfer
Thanks guys
What happens if I have 3 players form the same team e.g. Alonso Hazard Costa and I also own someone who is coming to the same team e.g. Ake, what would happen? Would I not be allowed to play one of them??
Your next transfer out has to be one of the four from the same team
You can play them all but your next transfer has to take one out
You get to keep and play all 4 but when you make a transfer next, you'd have to sell one of them. If you didn't make any more transfers, you could keep all 4.
Deja vu
You can play with 4 from the same team.
However your next transfer MUST be to transfer out a player from the team with 4, else you can't save your team.
Thanks guys
Holebas replace ?
a/ Smith
b/ Chambers
c/ Other (4.8 max)
Alonso - Rose - Brunt - X - Amat
Thanks
Ake
I'd keep this week unless it's for free
pieters/ake
Chambers
Ake might be recalled
I believe the last player to take you over the limit, in this case Ake remains in squad but becomes unselectable.
Not so - see above
Who's the best cheap defender now that Ake has gone to Chelsea and will rarely start??? Holgate?? Amat?
is this Ake stuff likely to happen? Only read that Conte is considering it so far
Doubt it will come to fruition
I think it is because conte is saying he has no cover in the wing-back positions.
He's gone?
Uncertain. See the latest tweet from FFS home page (http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/antonio-conte-reveals-hes-considering-recalling-chelseas-nathan-ake-from-bournemouth-loan-spell-a3435061.html).
Not many FA Cup goals about today
I knew this comment would do the trick
😀
Matty Phillips scored again.
Bent
The FA?
Cummings
Saylor and Raylor?
Are they still 'playing' these days?
Hull v Swansea attendance = 6,608 😆
It's some sort of organized protest from the Hull fans.
The Magic of the Cup
Makes people disappear
Gtg?
Heaton
Alonso, ake, pieters
Sanchez(c), alli, lallana, phillips
Defoe, costa, ibra
Grant, Allen, brunt, amat
Yes
Gtg
very nice, you could improve amat to a better playing cheap def, like chambers/friend/nyom
No FT and 0.0 in the bank
Current front 7
Sanchez Haz Lallana Siggy
Kun Ibra Tekkers
Would
fail
Yes I might take out Siggy and tekkers for a hit ?
Siggy to toure for a -4. Yes or no?
I'd wait until GW23 to make sure Yaya is nailed, think he will eventually be in my team
Wait 2 weeks
Everyone loves him but pep goes batshit crazy with rotation
west brom
stoke both losing
so far
everton -leicester
sunderland - burnley both goalless
Current front 7
Sanchez Haz Lallana Siggy
Kun Ibra Tekkers
Would you take a hit to do the following :
Siggy+ Tekkers > Phillips + Giroud ?
I would
If its just -4. Not worth a -8
-4 yes - waiting for fa cup to finish rly
Good moves
I would
Didn't know Darren Bent was still alive.
Everton goal
Lots of late goals I reckon - far too many games heading for a replay
Leicester have just equalised
Lukaku
lukaku goal
Defoe or Lukaku?
Cant believe I'm considering the troll again
Getting on the troll train for Origi, just have to stick with him for next 8 weeks over good fixtures.
Lukaku > Aguero
Leicester goal
1-1
Musa goal - Everton 1 Leicester 1
Musa - remember him?
Musa forgot him
Thats a bad pun
Ake has looked immense, the bit I've seen of him at Bournemouth. If he returns to Chelsea and absent injuries, any chance he displaces, say, Cahill? Or Azpi pushes up to wingback and Ake slotting in?
I think Zuma would still be above him in the pecking order, maybe eve Terry as well
Hmm, seems a shame to bring him back and might not even make the bench. But with Chelsea protecting PL lead, I guess they might want the insurance, and can certainly afford it. .
Which WC team do you prefer:
A.RANDOLPH HENNESSEY/MANDANDA
Alonso Brunt Jones CHAMBERS Ake
Sanchez Alli Lallana Phillips DE ROON
Ibra Costa LUKAKU
0.1itb 3-4-3/4-4-3
Would have to play philips next week against Spurs.
Would do alonso to Baines after hull to do Lallana to Coutinho.
B. VALDES PICKFORD/JAKU
Alonso Brunt Jones BAINES Ake
Sanchez Alli Lallana Phillips STANISLAS
Ibra Costa DEFOE
Big benching headache after next week 0.0itb
C. DE GEA VALDES
Alonso ROSE Brunt BAINES Ake
Sanchez Alli Lallana Phillips STANISLAS
Ibra Costa BARNES
3-5-2/4-4-2 0.8itb for Lallana to Coutinho week after
Goalkeeper and defence benching headache
Feel that B is most balanced but is the biggest benching headache, while A is the least benchinh headache and has better strike force. C
Any injuries?
yoshida goal
Southampton 2-1
Maya Yoshida
Yoshida essential
7 years, 3 months agoDo you think a -8 for getting Ake, Chambers & Phillips will pay off in the next 2 PL games? After all, taking a hit makes sense if you think the players you are getting in will outscore those you are replacing (or at least do the same amount of points, but deliver more in the mid-longer term). Team would be: (TV ~105.5)
Heaton
Rose, Ake, Chambers
Sanchez, Lallana, Alli, Phillips
Kun Aguero, Ibra, Costa
