Paul
Time to roll out our first post-Gameweek delve into the 2017/18 members’ data and assess some of the stand-out performers over the opening round of matches.
Tottenham’s top scorer misses chances aplenty as the transfers-out pick up pace. Man City’s front two and Liverpool’s summer signing from Roma arrive for analysis, while Chelsea and Palace’s left wing-backs also make the cut thanks to forward-thinking performances.
Numbers and Scoutcast!
Scout cast delayed ?
On very shortly.
on now
Was hoping you was gonna be the special guest mate.
Didn't expect Granville tbh.
Still not on for me
Refresh
Doesn't work for me either. Play button that is greyed out. How to refresh on mobile?
Gave it a listen last night. Some tasty crumbs of information sprinkled about to nourish my Fantasy Football planning.
Wazzaaaaaaa
Im sorry to say this, but Wolves are going to be in the Prem next season, no doubt.
Pick one for the medium -term :
A: Zaha to ramsey/tadic/willian
B: Zaha to eriksen; Jesus to Firm
C: Zaha to mkhi; gab to mounie
I did C)
C seems the popular choice
I did C
ta
I did C 😉
Migs has been Liverpool's man of the match tonight
A couple of great saves and a penalty save
That Liverpool defence is truly atrocious and a complete liability
Awful CB's. The fullbacks were decent. Lucky to concede just 1 I think.
Very lucky but you will take that result and run
All day. That's Hoffenheim's first home defeat since May..2016.
The only thing Palace have to do is hit long diagonal balls in-between our defender's and Benteke will probably score 5 against us. It's a joke.
Matip and Lovren are dumb and dumber. Matip we could get away with if he had a top partner. Lovren is just shite. Henderson too.
its Lovren. Matip's ok.
"The fullbacks were decent" Granted the teenager Alexander-Arnold played very well until he switched off and was at fault for the Hoffenhiem goal as his man got free to score but the penalty came because Moreno completely abandoned his position to rush up the pitch. He exposed Lovren several times and was out muscled on others. Moreno was a constant defensive liability. So the fullbacks were culpable in, or directly responsible for, the two big events (penalty and goal).
Pointing the finger at the centre backs seems to be the policy with many yet it's the almost complete lack of defensive structure around them that exposes them; a week defensive midfield in front, a flappy goalie behind, and a bunch of shirkers who when faced with a corner fail to block runners and duck corners in their own six yard box.
A great article 🙂
Knockaert a good replacement for zaha? fixtures look great
Or Grob (0.5m cheaper)
Two away matches coming up - liking Mooy's fixtures better
No alternative options please!
Zaha>
A)albrighton
B)tadic/redmond
C)wijnaldum
Thinking B
Redmond out of that. He's not definitely out though. Wait for presser
Can zaha avoid a drop til Thursday/Friday?
Potentially....
Could ride til tomorrow
PVA. Yikes.
1) Zaha to ?
A Rambo
B Tadic + 0.5 (or Redmond)
C Jwp + 1.5
2) Who to bench
A Lowe (CPL)
B Atsu (hud)
B and bench atsu I guess
1C
2B
PS/ Isn't it "Lowe (NEW)"?
Yes, correct
its unbelievable that Pool dont invest in defence, or even try to coach their defenders
Mignolet might not actually be a bad pick with Lovren in front of him, think of all the pen saves...
I suggested this in pre-season but people on here thought I'd lost the plot.
sarcasm fail, mate
Might just keep Zaha and play Dann for the weekend.
Unbeaten; not many teams can say that after 3 games 🙂
We can
we're coming for you 😛
Which option do you prefer: A) Bertrand + salah or B) Cedric/yoshida + mane?
B
A
B
Well did expext different opinions.. Impossible for me to choose! Mane def looked more dangerous than salah today.. But bertrand will without a doubt get more bps and is a bigger attacking threat
A easily
Ramsey or Redmond?
Redmond
Redmond
Why not Ramsey ??
This indeed. I have a feeling
Rambo
Ramsey all the way... he should surely be an 8.5 or 9.0 in that gunners formation. Fitness the only ?
Starts another ?
Think Wenger really rates him & if he's fit he starts. He is also a much, much better footballer than Elneny
Zaha for richarlison?
could work
Do u think he will play?
eventually, dont know when; prefer Atsu
He looked good when he came on. You might be a game or two too early though. I really want to punt on An Aaron Ramsey revival
I just think Watford look like they might just try and score score score and not worry about defence!
Bit different to Silva's style with Hull though?
Zaha & Danilo-------Mkhitarian & TAA -4 yes or no?
Yes
Doing something very similar but cannot decide on a £4.5m DEF
I may do that.
But taa is incredibly short term option.
Lowe?
Who else at 4.5 is there?
Nobody considering moreno? To consecutive starts in important games without being subbed.. Really decent performance in both games as well
Christian Atsu - was he that good? Lots of noise on here & elsewhere about him passing the eye test. 5.0 is a lovely price point too, although I already have Carrol/RLC as playing 4-3-3.
He had a good pre-season and some lads wrote that he played well in the end of their match vs. Spurs.
He played well against an 18 year old debutant not going to get that every game
Very true the Kyle walker peters factor may have played a big part. He's on the watchlistnthough
KWP did get MOTM though and Atsu looked would have looked lively against anyone imo. Definitely looking at him.
Like many others, looking to ship Zaha.
Squad as follows with nil ITB:
Foster Elliott
Stephens Danilo Mee Dann Long
Salah KDB Ritchie Zaha Carroll
Gabbiadini Kane Lukaku
None of the other £7m and below MIDs attract me really, maybe Willian but not enthused. Mkhi is therefore tempting me at £8m. Would rather take a hit for someone I want then settle for a sub par option.
Would need to downgrade £1m elsewhere - where to do this? Danilo down to a £4.5m?
Lowe?
TAA?
Someone else?
Danilo > 4.5 or gabbi > mounie
Pretty sure I'm gonna take Danilo out, it's just which 4.5
Wijnaldum or Ramsey the 2x standout options imo. Leaning way more towards Ramsey
The return of Granville !!
Upvoted
Imagine how many goals Liverpool's attack would score against Liverpool's defence.
Haha, nice one.
🙂 training games must be fun to watch
Reminds me of spurs under martin jol.
Lots of focus on sh*te defs but I still think 1 decent DM and things might look different.
So Firmino Mane and Salah's stocks still on the rise after tonight? All looked lively and could have easily netted again
How did bobby do?
got around; had chances, encouraging i would say, especially with Palace up next
Another goal v Palace hopefully to keep the wagon rolling:-)
Like he usually does. You don't see him throughout the game and then he ends up with an assist and missed a real sitter. Love of my life he is.
Problem I find is that Mane and Salah are both playing on opposite sides to their strong foot so when they're through on goal, unless they have time to cut inside, they have to shoot with their weaker foot and they really struggled with that tonight. Finishing was poor
Salah should have put two one-on-ones away. But didn't. Sign of things to come?
Fabs & Gabbiadini to Mkhi & Mounie (-4)?
Or just Fabs to Ramsey
I don't get that Ramsey love, for real... I'd suggest you doing A
Quite like the -4. Mounie and mkhi about to price rise
Great article.
Eriksen will be in my team before long I feel.
should be already 😉
I keep trying Alli & Eriksen without Kane while window shopping... the team looks so strong then I think - don't try to be too clever - Kane will surely come good. What we really need is Kane to bag 30 points in his next 2 games to put these doubts to bed
His numbers are always big though
Will Milner be in the first 11 against the Crystal Palace?
Despite Dejan Lovren's best efforts we've come away with a valuable away win
Is Mkhi as a Zaha replacement worth 4 points over Ramsey?
Mkhi looked great and would be involed in a lot of goals and with the imminent price raise could be a good time to get him
What do you guys think of Mooy as a replacement for Zaha?
Just did Zaha/gabbi to mooy/Firmino... hopefully mooy is a clever differential
Did you consider Ince not sure between the two of them or maybe another 6mil player
I'm liking Mooy, good stats and nice fixtures. Lets me keep £ banked for possible Kane upgrade in GW3. But also considering Gross or Redmond
Must say Mane looks a far better option than Salah, worth the extra 0.5m. He looks sharp and i'm not convinced Salah has the same composure when chances come their way.
Also... Mane is generally just a fun player to have and cheer for.
