Our usual post-Gameweek members’ article arrives this afternoon, as we take a look at some of the main performers over the previous round of fixtures.

Key midfielders from Man City and Spurs are assessed, while we also analyse Liverpool’s attack since the return of Philippe Coutinho.

Meanwhile, our new expected goals numbers highlight how Wilfried Zaha thrived up front upon his return to the Eagles’ fold.

    Kane (c)

    1. Over Midwicket
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Thinking about it. Will probably go Morata(c) though. Too tempting.

    2. BIG TONES
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Big Rom the flat-track bully all day.

    3. DeathoftheParty
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Really? Liverpool sounder defence this year, Kane record at home this year?

      1. Flynny
        9 years, 5 days ago

        I'm going Kane for now

        Way I see it is too risky to captain Jesus due to doubt over minutes.

        Don't have lukaku or sterling

        That leaves Kane or hazard for me - and hazard done nothing to suggest he deserves armband yet....

    Who should I sell first

    Foster (2nd Keeper Elliott) or Chicarito

    1.1 ITB

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Well, there's no rush to sell Foster

    2. Over Midwicket
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Chicharito is useless.

    3. PDM TOP 1,000 any Season kr…
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Chico to Tammy to free up £'s

    4. Sotamendi84
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Keep Chicha and thank me later

  3. Respect My Authoritah
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Crikey, didn't realise Hazard's numbers were so bad

    1. Over Midwicket
      9 years, 5 days ago

      He's looked AWFUL. Can't believe anyone has even thought about buying him. Such a waste of money 😀

      1. FPL ZB
        • Has Moderation Rights
        9 years, 5 days ago

        wait.. what!? did you watch the Athletico game?

        1. Over Midwicket
          9 years, 5 days ago

          I did yeah.

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Not worth it yet.

      1. PDM TOP 1,000 any Season kr…
        9 years, 5 days ago

        Yet being the word ......
        We'll all being clambering to buy him when he bangs in a brace!

        1. Begbie.
          9 years, 5 days ago

          And in typical Hazard fashion he won't do anything after that for 3 months.

        2. applebonkers
          • Has Moderation Rights
          9 years, 5 days ago

          i think it's a simple case of he can't do it twice a week yet with the ankle. looked fantastic vs atleti and cyprus but was then asked to play just days later against man city and palace.

  4. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 5 days ago

    1ft...
    A) Ritchie to Sterling
    B) Davies to someone
    Have Carroll 1st on bench if Davies doesnt show up.

    1. Over Midwicket
      9 years, 5 days ago

      A by far. If you can wait for the presser, do so. Davies might still play. Carroll is a great replacement anyhoo.

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Davies for a Burnley defender sits well in your expensive defence .
      And I would work 2 attacking Citeh into your team even if it means a -4 or -8.

  5. raoulduke71
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Would it be stupid to consider either Kaku or Kane to make way for a 3rd City attack? (Aguero/KDB)

    Here's my mid/attack:
    Coutinho Sterling Zaha
    Jesus Lukaku Kane

    Yes/No?

    1. chelseabrad
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I wouldn't

    2. BIG TONES
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Wouldn't lose Kane or Kaku this week.

      If you're dead set on your plan, Silva is much better value than KDB and two City strikers is too much.

    3. raoulduke71
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Happy to keep but with the fixtures and current form of city it's hard to overlook. I like having Kaku though as a united fan!

  6. applebonkers
    • Has Moderation Rights
    9 years, 5 days ago

    here's a question which should admittedly be postponed until tomorrow.

    would you swap lacazette to jesus or morata?

    1. Chris_H
      9 years, 5 days ago

      In the same position although I (foolishly) already have Hazard.

      I don't trust Jesus not be rested this weekend so I'd stick given Everton look ropey still.

    2. Holmes
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Nope, after next week..

    3. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I'm going Morata for laca this week. Then Kuku>Kun/Jesus after Huddersfield

    4. Cesc Pistols
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Hell yes.

    5. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Sanchez playing should benefit Laca, and is one that could bite back but understand the lack of patience.

      Your team is showing Jesus already, I would consider Kane > Morata but understand this is non too palatable for some.

    6. BIG TONES
      9 years, 5 days ago

      If you have no other City attackers then get Jesus.

    7. DA Minnion (Former great)
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I've same problem and am getting rid of lacazette asap. He only plays around 70 mins any week with Giroud hanging around looking to play.
      out for morata.

    8. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 5 days ago

      is for another team, the question is basically would you rather have jesus or morata if buying tomorrow

      1. Kingtekkerz
        9 years, 5 days ago

        Jesus

      2. Dele
        9 years, 5 days ago

        Morata all day!

    9. Poetry in motion
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I would swap Lacazette for anyone if I owned him as I think he's a huge waste of money. Diouf playing at WB has more ppg than him for almost half the price. Tomar Hemed has the same ppg... (cue Lacazette brace this weekend)

      1. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        9 years, 5 days ago

        sad but true. didnt even have a shot vs watford

  7. Rinseboy
    9 years, 5 days ago

    start gross or RLC this week?!!?!

    1. Krafty Werks
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Gross for me.

    2. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I'm very tempted to play RLC but not sure if he should be prioritized over the players that are currently in my starting line up. If you are chasing in your mini league and need a differential, playing RLC could be a shrewd move, he looks dangerous when he plays and Palace will be feeling confident after beating Chelsea, plus Zaha is back to bolster the attack.

  8. ToRaBoRa
    9 years, 5 days ago

    what do you think about hazard next GW ?

    1. FPL_Hazards
      9 years, 5 days ago

      ask us after this GW

  9. The Alli Way
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Elliot (Foster)

    Cedric Cresswell Simpson Naughton (Mee)

    Salah D Silva Sterling (Cork (RLC))

    Kane Lukaku Vardy

    Thinking of going Cork > C-Moting for a -4; fed up playing 4 shitty defenders and need a good differential, his attacking stats are crazy at home! Worth the hit/punt?

  10. Jubilanus / BSC Small Boys …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Bavies to Jones the sensible move right? Anybody else cutting the mustard?

    Curentn def is...

    alonso, azpi, vvd, ward, bavies.

    1. Cesc Pistols
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Is he definitely out? Have a feeling he will play.

    2. BIG TONES
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Wait until the pressers is the good advice I was given.

    3. Sánchez
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Done it last night before Jones price went up

    4. Over Midwicket
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Wait for pressers. Otherwise ditch for Jones.

    5. Krafty Werks
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Waiting on tonights games and then pressers as currently have exact money for Vardy > Morata and Bavies > Jones.

  11. Cesc Pistols
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Current front three: Kaku, Kane, Morata.

    Really want a City striker (I have Sterling, though). So should I:

    A) Stick with what I have and get Ota instead;
    B) Morata ➡ Jesus;
    C) Morata ➡ Aguero.

    1. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I'd do C) though this may not be a popular choice here.

      1. Cesc Pistols
        9 years, 5 days ago

        That's exactly what I'm thinking about, as it seems silly to get Jesus now that Aguero is back (and should start this weekend).

        Thanks!

        1. Begbie.
          9 years, 5 days ago

          Aguero hasn't even got off the bench in the last 2 games. I think it's too big of a risk especially given Morata's fixture. Keep him imo.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      9 years, 5 days ago

      none of the above

  12. chelseabrad
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Fabianski Elliott
    Cresswell Mee Azpi Suttner Mbemba
    D.Silva Salah Ritchie Surman King
    Kane Lukaku Vardy

    1FT with 1.9 ITB, any suggestions? Only got 1 City, is that enough coverage?

    1. Cesc Pistols
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Can you do Vardy to Jesus?

      1. chelseabrad
        9 years, 5 days ago

        No, 0.3 away

    2. Begbie.
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Vardy to Morata?

  13. FPL_Hazards
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Inspiration welcome, no idea what to do

    Forster Elliot
    Luiz Otamendi Bavies* Ward Naughton
    Hazard Sterling Richarlison Carrol RLC
    Kane Jesus Vardy

    1. PDM TOP 1,000 any Season kr…
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Probably save .....
      You can still field a solid XI even if Davies is a No show ....
      Then use the 2ft wisely

      1. FPL_Hazards
        9 years, 5 days ago

        yeah that's my current thought, possibly because I cant think of a TF, but Vardy wont last much longer at this rate

    2. BIG TONES
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Captain choice is important. Do you feel you have a solid one this week?

  14. Lone Wolf FPL
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Jesus played almost 90 and Kun didn play at all so we know nothing about who will start at weekend.

    As I see it I will probably get Kane, Lukaku, Morata on WC and sell one for Kun/Jesus next weekend or get Jesus, Kane, Morata now?

    1. FPL_Hazards
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Makes sense to have Lukaku for this GW

  15. TheBusDriver
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Elliot
    Davies Otamendi Cedric
    Silva Salah Richarlison Moting
    Lukaku (c) Kane Vardy

    Fabianski, RLC, Ward, Mbemba. 2.5m in the bank.

    What to do??

    1. FPL_Hazards
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Vardy out

    2. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Make any transfers you want and later complain on this site like a child when the games are going on.

      1. Over Midwicket
        9 years, 5 days ago

        Ooo buuurn

  16. Tshelby
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Play 2 :

    A) Carroll
    B) RLC
    C) Fernandez
    D) Duffy
    E) Mee

    Cheers

  17. trinzoo
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Really struggling this season, would you Ince > Richarlison for a hit ?

    Can't see anything more than 2 points from Ince, Rich on the other hand has a nice chance of some points.

    1. Transferred Out
      9 years, 5 days ago

      a hit vs Chelsea away, absolutely not

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Not this week, no

  18. RVP20
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Who is the best 3rd striker to bring in?

    (A) Firmino
    (B) Abraham
    (C) Vardy
    (D) Someone else?

    1. Kingtekkerz
      9 years, 5 days ago

      B imo

  19. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Make any transfers you want and later complain on this site like a child when the games are going on.

  20. chelseabrad
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Fabianski Elliott
    Cresswell Mee Azpi Suttner Mbemba
    D.Silva Salah Ritchie Surman King
    Kane Lukaku Vardy

    1FT with 1.9 ITB, any suggestions? Only got 1 City, is that enough coverage? Was thinking of doing Mbemba > Otamendi

    1. tibollom
      9 years, 5 days ago

      woudlnt have any city defenders

    2. chelseabrad
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Or Salah > Sterling in order to do King > Richarlison next week? Or could do it this week for a hit but don't see much point with Richarlison away to Chelsea this week

  21. jia you
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Who are your top two transfer targets after this gameweek plays out?
    Mine are:
    1. Morata
    2. Richarlison
    Will even consider losing Eriksen along with Vardy to fund these two players who will have super upcoming fixtures. Will also leave some nice cash (2m) banked for a rainy day 🙂

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      9 years, 5 days ago

      top targets

      Richarlison
      Morata
      Che def depending on Kante
      David Silva

      Also considering:

      Moreno
      Coutinho

      1. jia you
        9 years, 5 days ago

        Cool, yep also considering some Pool as I've none. Have a CHE defender and double City already!
        I think Morata will become all the rage on here soon enough!
        GL this weekend first anyway btw 🙂

  22. Ëð
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Anything I should change here? (£0.3m ITB, 1FT). Still got my WC available too.

    Foster, Elliot
    Otamendi, Simpson, Cedric, Daniels, Mariappa
    Salah, Alli, Silva, Richarlison, Carroll
    Kane, Lukaku, Abrahams

    A) Alli -> Stirling
    B) WC
    C) Save FT

    1. tibollom
      9 years, 5 days ago

      a

  23. tibollom
    9 years, 5 days ago

    current team for the weekend - 1FT 0.2 ITB

    Elliot (foster)
    Bertrand Jones Naughton (Mee, Hunemeir)
    Eriksen DSilva Richarlison TC (Chalobah)
    Kane Kaku Jesus

    Kaku for captain all the way?
    Any changes or keep the FT?

    1. chelseabrad
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Looks good

  24. Tinmen
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Folks, is it too risky to swap Lacazette for Aguero and make him captain?

    1. tibollom
      9 years, 5 days ago

      why risky, Laca has been rubbish

      1. Kingtekkerz
        9 years, 5 days ago

        Because of Kun's minutes

    2. Park the bus
      9 years, 5 days ago

      wouldn't captain him

  25. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    9 years, 5 days ago

    RLC + Vardy -> Zaha and Abraham (-4) is madness right?

    1. Ëð
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Is RLC your 4th or 5th mid?

      1. FPL ZB
        • Has Moderation Rights
        9 years, 5 days ago

        4th this week over Carroll

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          9 years, 5 days ago

          Is rlc back from injury? didn't realise that

  26. Dele
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Wimmer > Jones
    Alli > Zaha
    Vardy > Morata

    All for a -4... what do we think? Yay or nay?

    1. Begbie.
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Huge yay.

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Looks golden to me, long term

    3. tibollom
      9 years, 5 days ago

  27. chelseabrad
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Fabianski Elliott
    Cresswell Mee Azpi Suttner Mbemba
    D.Silva Salah Ritchie Surman King
    Kane Lukaku Vardy

    1FT with 1.9 ITB

    A) Mbemba > Otamendi
    B) Salah > Sterling (then King > Richarlison next week)
    C) Vardy > Morata

    Or any other suggestions?

  28. Park the bus
    9 years, 5 days ago

    best 4.5 defender? not newcastle as have Elliot

    1. Stimps
      9 years, 5 days ago

      9 years, 5 days ago

      fernandez, moreno or femenia

    5. Tommyboy
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Risky, but I've just gone for Moreno

  29. Harper_

    Stoke are very good at annoyingly ruining clean sheets

    1. @persecuted_by_mods

      West brom seem to be doing that since midway through last season
