Paul
The time has come to roll out our regular post-Gameweek members’ article and check up on some of the stand-out performers across the most recent round of fixtures.
Much of our focus turns to midfield, where Arsenal, Man City and Everton’s big hitters finally hint at the form of last season.
West Ham and Newcastle’s budget strikers also catch the eye, while defenders from Man City and Bournemouth shrug off slow starts to make significant bids for our attention.
Sterling a short term pick?
Yes but could be a great one
Could be a decent one while Kun is out.
re-post as i was bottomed out.
Hi All, long time lurker (first time poster). Having a lot of troubles on my wildcard so figured i'd bring it to you guys for help.
a) Hazard, Ramsey and Yoshida
b) Coutinho, Silva and Van Dijk
currently have B but with Morata probably out and chelsea's schedule.. i like hazard as a differential. I'm 6th in my 40 person mini league (winner gets 5k). This is a big decision for me. Appreciate the help!
B with Cedric instead of VVD.
B
Welcome! I fancy Hazard to do damage against CPL, but I think B has better potential long term.
5k!? That's hell of a mini league
Salah to Coutinho on a WC, Yes or No?
Absolutely not
Not for me.
Can u have both?
Yes for me
Yes . I wish I had.
Yes
Nah
nope
Can't really gauge an answer without the whole team tbh.
That's one heavy mini league!
@ Bony 'n Clyne *
Yedlin or Wimmer as an Elliot owner
wimmer
Is there any reason why people are picking Wimmer over Cameron?
a wimmer way
Confused about which Man City midfielder to pick? I've written an article covering an in-depth statistical analysis comparing de Bruyne, Silva, Sane and Sterling, with every underlying stat you'd need. Do give it a read.
http://the12thman.in/fpl-man-city-mids-analysis/
Sterling all day long
Sane for me.
Biased though as had him for last seasons explosions.
Good read.
Slouchy what's up
Were you 'enable'd?
Nice
B.Silva to spoil party?
Don't think so, doesn't seem like Pep likes him that much. Has only started 1 so far I think.
sublime article, someone hulk this. Sterling for me too
Really enjoyable read.
Cheers. Maybe worth noting that none of Sterling's goals have come while Jesus was playing.
(same for Sane in PL, but he scored in EFL)
Good atricle, appreciated the one on forwards too.
Great article. I think it's worth looking at Manchester City's 2 champions league matches as well. Maybe there's something specific to Sterling's game that Pep thinks works best in the premier league, but I think it's more about just getting every player their rest. I don't really think really Sterling is any more secure than Sane as they both have 5 starts in all competitions.
Some champions league stats:
Sterling has played 67 minutes total, both times as a sub, and scored a goal against Shakhtar. 2 shots, both in the box (2.69 per 90), no chances created.
Sane started and played the full 90 against Shakhtar and was subbed on for the last 20 minutes against Feyenoord. He hasn't scored or assisted, but has taken 4 shots, 3 in the box (3.3 and 2.5 per 90) and created 1 chance.
Silva started both games, but was subbed off both times. He hasn't taken a shot, but has 2 more assists and has created 5 chances total (3.08 per 90).
De Bruyne has played the full 180 minutes, has a goal and an assist, but his underlying stats aren't incredible, 4 shots, 2 in the box, and 4 chances created.
RMWCT please guys:
Elliot Pereira
Bavies, Jones Cedric (Ward Wimmer)
Salah Sterling Sane Richarlison (T Carrol)
Kane Vardy Jesus (or Lacazette if you think 3 Man city attack too much)
cheers
I think Jesus is a must for the time being so perhaps choose between Sane and Sterling? I would think about getting a chelsea player, maybe downgrade one for a chelsea defender?
Or Ramsey?
A) Azpi and Tuanzebe as 5th def
B) Luiz and Lowe as 5th def
Ryan (Krul)
Kolasinac Davies Otamendi Ward/Clark
Eriksen Salah Sterling Brady (Fellaini)
Kane Jesus (Crouch)
Thoughts on wc team? Starting to come together but still have a lot of doubts
jones is still flagged?
is he a risk?
Pulled out of England squad. International injury most likely.
I don't know what to do
If your not sure what to do don't do anything.
Me neither. Life's a bitch.
have a cuppa
Having in mind form, fixtures and everything, which mid up to 5.7 would you rather have?
A) Choupo
B) Gross
C) other?
Choupo
A
Gross. Involved in everything for Brighton
Sanchez looks like Forest Gump in that pic.
certainly getting his gurn on
Just saw Mark in the street. 😯
I heckled him.
I shouted "You can't run from a Loftus-Cheek, mate!" and legged it!
Hee hee 😆
IDGAF. no one else does too
How do you know it was Mark? Was he wearing a 'I messed up my WC' t-shirt?
Who do you think will start most games as RWB for spurs?
Aurier or trippier?
That fact that this is even a question makes me avoid both
FAO Mods.
There is a spelling mistake in today's hot topic.
Jonty has spelt "MAGIC BEANS" as "BUDGET ENABLERS"
Trying to dump Morata Ritchie and Britos which way should I go? Someone has to remain.
a) Alonso/King
b) Hazard/Abraham
c) Sterling/Vardy
keep Ritchie
c
To get C I would have to lose Ritchie and keep Britos.
so find another way
but c out of those is the best combo
Vardy/KDB for Morata/Siggurdsson and I get to keep Ritchie.
like it too
C
Foster, Elliot
Kola, Davies, Cedric, Mee, Hune
Eriksen, Silva, Ritchie, Brady, Carroll
Kane, Lukaku, Firmino
1 FT, 0 ITB. Think I will keep Firmino as still think he is underpriced and want Liv attacker as they love big games. Also he has already been rested.
What do you think of this team? Any obvious missing? Any suggestions? Cheers!
One of Salah/Mane is a must for me
Thanks but as long as I have Firm I don't think double up Liv esp with those fixtures is a must.
Best price change predictor? Some huge differences between FF Fix and FPL statistics.
Thanks
FPL statistics
Thanks TM
Fix are useless for prices, only good for rank predictor. FPL stats best for prices.
Cheers
Pedro - keep for ditch for Sterling for free this GW
or*
I'd keep against Palace.
I love to own nailed players. one of the main FPL rules
Firmino wasn't nailed Sunday.
😉
Elliot
Davies Jones TAA Naughton
Eriksen Salah Miki
Kane Jesus Lacazette
Subs: Krul Caroll Mbemba RLC
0 ft 0.0 ITB
G2G or change subs/starting lineup?
(I know defence is weak - looking to sort it out on two ft b4 gw10)
Morata and atsu > sterling and Joselu?
Saves 1.8m
Please rate my wildcard team
Forster (Elliot)
Davies Luiz Otamendi Ward (Dunk)
Hazard Coutinho Puncheon (Carroll Barry)
Kane Vardy Jesus
Wimmer for Dunk and Fellaini for Puncheon?
I like it but Hazard is quite expensive punt.
Love your strikers but in mid I would choose silva and upgrade puncheon
Cheers lads for the feedback
Bench one: Brady; Naughton; Cedric.
Naughton from these choices
