Our regular post-Gameweek delve into the members’ data is next on our Tuesday schedule.

We look at why Sergio Aguero has profited from a change of tactics and try to ascertain just why Harry Kane’s output remains a major issue at Wembley Stadium.

Man City, Brighton and Liverpool’s playmakers also find a place in this week’s article, while the West Ham and Swansea defences also catch the eye.

    Is Lascalles the new Mawson ?

    1. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Captain and only 23. Rafa must love him.

  2. meclive
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Would you go with A or B lads? (A = two man U strikers, B = two city strikers...)

    A) Salah, Aguero, Lukaku, Rashford
    B) Atsu, Aguero, Lukaku, Jesus

    1. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      A

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Salah + Rashford or Atsu + Jesus?

      The first

    3. MisterMaster
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      B all day

  3. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Seriously consider hold my WC longer than 2nd IB (if no injuries etc).

    Foster, Elliot
    Davies, Cedric, Daniels*, Mee, Hunemeier
    Eriksen, Miki, Ritchie, Tadic*, Carroll
    Kane, Lukaku, Firmino

    Strikers are untouchables. With that front can afford 2 good mids so choose Eriksen and Miki as I think they are best atm. Have Firmino so I'm ok with no Salah. Ritchie looks like season keeper.
    Using FT I will probably get Kolasinac or Silva who are only two players I want. We have Kun hype atm so probably it's unpopular but don't think he is better than Kane or Kaku and team with Kun/Kane/Kaku isn't good.

    Thoughts?

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Kolasinac is a good bet. Monitor Davies with injury.

      1. Lone Wolf FPL
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Davies is fit. Thanx.

    2. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years

      Use it in dec

  4. Sepp Blattered

    When are people using free hit chip?

    1. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Fa cup

    2. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      When we get completely pissed drunk

    3. SPFC
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      GW35, IMO. A week after a DGW34 in some teams will have a blank (FA Cup)

    4. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      When there will be a moment like last season when City had DGW and than a blank GW so generally during blank GW / DGW probably

    5. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Apparently the number of transfers you make using it is included in your season total, which affects your OR, so I think I'll save it for a big blank GW to replace players who don't have a game.

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        i'd rather have 3-4 extra transfers added to my total and have a good differential with easy fix for that week than stick with old players with not so good fixture for that week

    6. It’s a Knockaert
      • 8 Years

    7. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Used it last week - not ideal, but the Pogba injury forced my hand so it was free hit or WC. Ended up with 60, which was bang average but better than my potential WC team would've done (would have dumped Kaku, and wouldn't have had Ritchie). Pleased to have an extra week of info before wildcarding.

  5. chilli con kone
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Which would you rather have in draft league?

    A. Richie & Laca
    B. Sanchez & Joselu

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      A

  6. Keep Calm and Play On
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Foster-Elliot
    Alonso-Bavies-Hegazi-Lowe-4.0
    Eriksen-Salah-Mkhti-Richarlison-T.Carr
    Lukaku-Morata-Chicharito

    Mkhti + Chicharito > Atsu+ Jesus

    Any thoughts? 2FT that's all I can think of

  7. GE
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Last 3 matches in terms of minutes played:

    Aguero: 90, 60, 90
    Jesus: 57, 90, 64

    Time for Jesus 90 min and Aguero 60 min against Palace?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Aguero can do enough damage in 60 tbh, I have Jesus but aguero is the better option

      1. GE
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        In the same position 😉

    2. Effendi007
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Or 90 in the Cup for Jesus

      1. GE
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Think both will be rested actually.

        1. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Good spot.

    3. Jorginho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Jesus was unlucky/Aguero lucky in the Liverpool match that Aguero had played zero minutes for Argentina over the last international break leading to Jesus hooked early and Aguero playing full 90.
      Jesus has then been further unlucky/Aguero lucky from an FPL perspective that the Jesus full match/Aguero hooked early was a champs league match.
      If Aguero had played significant minutes whilst away for Argentina a few weeks ago, the roles could have been reversed and it could easily have led to Jesus playing 180 FPL minutes vs Aguero playing 121 minutes.

      1. GE
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Interesting thoughts.
        For me it's not clear whether to have both or only of them. And if one of them, I'm not totally convinced that Aguero is a better pick long term with a cost of 1.1 more.

        Glad I still have WC to see how it goes 🙂

  8. Effendi007
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Vardy to Jesus? Thoughts?

    1. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Water to wine.
      If you have the cash, do it.

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      if he is fit than keep him probably. Good fixtures comming

      1. Effendi007
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Would your answer change if i said I have no City players?

        1. Lone Wolf FPL
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          No City here too so maybe I'm not the right person to answer that

  9. Colonel Klink
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    If Son started, who would he replace?

    1. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Sanchez

      1. Colonel Klink
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Interesting. Think Son is better than Brady, Ritchie, Ince or Knockaert in draft?

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Sanchez or a deep midfielder

      1. Colonel Klink
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers. But still probably won't get loads of minutes in the weeks ahead. This week yes, I think.

    Hey guys. With the numerous premium forward options confusing the best of us all, I have written an article which talks in-depth about each of Kane, Lukaku, Aguero, Jesus, Lacazette and Morata. Complete with all the stats and facts you need. Do give it a read.

  13. Cok3y5murf

    8 years, 9 months ago

    I can't believe some Aguero owners are debating whether they should captain him this weekend.

    If you aren't captaining Aguero who's playing for the team at the top of the league and facing the team at the bottom, why are you even paying 11.5 to bring him in?!

    I am not even bringing in Aguero, but I did vote for him in the Captain Poll.

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Kane and Kaku just as likely to haul - just get all three and flip s coin

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        I have only 2 premium strikers and I am against the idea of having 3. So I'm referring to those who have only 2.

  14. SPFC
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Bench one:

    A- Carroll (WAT)
    B- Fellaini (sou)

    1. WE GO FOR IT
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Carroll. See if Fellaini starts tomorrow though. Might give him a rest before CL tie in Russia.

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    8 years, 9 months ago

    I feel i've got the wrong City, United and Spurs players.

    Is Alli, Kaku and Jesus to Miki, Kane and Kun funded by DDG and Dawson to Foster and P.Jones worth a WC ?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Not IMO

  17. buttigieg93
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Thinking of doing Lukaku > Kun for a hit? Talk me out of it lads.

    1. Kaptenen
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      no

    2. L S P
      • 10 Years

      bad idea

    3. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Even for free it's a bad idea

  18. FCSB
    • 10 Years

    What to do here?? Anything worth a hit...

    Foster
    Bertrand Otamendi Trippier

    Firmino Kane Lukaku

    Elliot Yoshida Gamez Choupo-Moting

    should i wc this lot or hold?

    Foster - Elliot
    Bavies - Bertrand - Suttner - Lower - Long
    Eriksen - Salah - Miki - Mooy - Carroll
    Lukaku - Aguero - Joselu

    1. L S P

      you're fine.

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      you will need WC to fit in players like Sanchez or Hazard so hold my friend

    3. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Long time Toonzie. How you doing?

      I see no reason to wildcard.

  20. Kaptenen
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Best Alli replacement? looking at Silva or the golden boy Ramsey

    1. L S P
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Both good options. If you can use the extra mil wisely, go ramsey. if you don't need it, silva.

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      what's wrong with Alli?

      1. Pumpkinhead
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Nothing, but Spurs have yet to really turn it on. I had both Alli and Kane and until they find their scoring boots probably one of the two is good enough.

    3. WE GO FOR IT
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Salah or Ozil (if you can look past Arsenal's form)

  21. jai1212
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Elliot/Foster
    Jones/Hegazi/Cedric/Wimmer/Naughton
    Salah/Mkhi/Eriksen/Choupa/Carroll
    Lukaku/Kane/Chicharito

    Thinking to transfer out Chicharito

  22. elmes85
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Having my worst season ever so have pulled the WC trigger

    Lloris (Elliot)
    Otamendi, Jones, Monreal, Mbemba (Gamez)
    Silva, Mhiki, Can, (Carroll) (King)
    Aguero, Lukaku, Kane

    thoughts?

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Down grade Lloris and spend elsewhere

  23. meclive
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Currently got Kolasinac, is it worth downgrading to Monreal and using the money saved elsewhere?

    1. L S P
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      No

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years

      Most people looking for a way to get him so this is a strange question tbf
