Men In Black – Gameweek 16

Our brand new series, plundering the new Referee data soon to be available to our members, continues with an analysis of the Gameweek 16 appointments.

We scan the assignments and attempt to pick out the key pairings, assessing the data to decipher the potential impact of certain whistlers on their respective fixtures and the players in line to either suffer or benefit as a result.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Start Dann or Gomez?

    1. RoysCallerAnne

      6 years, 6 months ago

      That's tough. Dann missed the two Palace CS, so may not come back and was dropped before injury.
      Gomez is a CB by trade and seems slightly more nailed for this GW, at either RB (eventho he strated CL ) or in the middle cos Matip is out.
      Gomez.

      1. Get up ya bum

        I agree. Expect Gomez to start

        thanks again.Dann has scored in each of his last three games against Bou but i will start Gomez.I hope i will not regret.

      Gomez

        thanks Viper

    Play C-Moting (tot) or Kiko (bur)? I have Pope in goal

    1. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Kiko

  3. Clintymints
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Reluctantly captained Kane over Salah the last two weeks bit surely it's time to confidently give it to Kane this week?

    Haz obvious other choice but more game time has been played

    Who did you go for and why?

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Hazard.

      Chelsea tweeted their team at 11:29 last week so you'll know if he's playing.
      He's playing OOPs, on pens and a baps king.
      Best fixture. V good form.

      1. Clintymints
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Any concern for an early sub for haz?

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Same concern for all three

        2. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          That means the game is won and Hazard already has points.

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I ruled hazard out because he's playing away. Away always less likely to go to plan.
      I'm torn between the other two. Head says salah due to Liverpool playing much better than spurs. My gut says Kane will do better

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Hazard got points vs Bournemouth WBA Liverpool away.

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          I don't get your point. That he can score away from home? He's one of the best in the world he could haul against anyone

    3. Viper
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Kane. Absolutely guaranteed a start (pre match injury etc. aside). Great record vs. Stoke(6 in 4). During this 'Wembley course' he's bagged 5 goals in leading Spurs to wins over Dortmund, Real & Liverpool. Penalties. Stoke have conceded 13 in their past 5 away games and just from memory alone always seem to roll over away from home

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Going Kane myself. After West Ham did ok v city it may not be a rout v Chelsea + Haz away from home... Haz could easily brace again though while Kane blanks.

      Have faith in Kane this time though

    5. Clintymints
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Interesting but non the wiser! Proper 5050 call

  4. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Those referees stats are mad.

  5. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Mustafi to Trippier for a 1 week punt happy with rest of my team, have 2FT so will save the other one.

  6. RoysCallerAnne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Play RLC (BOU)

    or

    Rondon (swa). Thanks.

    1. Magic Bean
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      RLC

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Rondon has had few shots recently, so him 🙂

        1. RoysCallerAnne
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3. Prøfeßör …
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Never play Rondon.

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        cool, cheers

        I disagree with everyone, as usual 😆

    5. Viper
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      RLC RCA 😉

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        5-0 , thanks Viper

        1. Viper
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Now you know what to do in order to nail the decision. Play Rondon for sure 😉

    6. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Rondon. Best striker in the Prem.

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Now we're talkin. Can always rely on you.

    7. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Rondon

    8. justlikehoney
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Thought I was the only Rondon owner haha

      I'm playing both this weekend but I'd say you gotta go with Rondon over RLC.

  7. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Would you take a hit to strengthen the bench? Have 4 potential non starters. 0.9m itb

    Ddg
    Alonso Daniels Duffy
    Gross Salah hazard Richarlison
    Kane morata dcl

    Elliot mee Moreno Carroll

    1. Magic Bean
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Nah

    2. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      no.I would start Mee over Dcl.

    3. abk
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      don't do a -4

  8. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Pogba 7.9... he's back in 8 days... how the hell are we to fit all these midfielders in?!

    Can't get a midfield of Hazard, Salah, Coutinho, Pogba, Ramsey, Sané, Sterling, Mané, KDB, Richarlison etc, let alone quality squad fillers like RLC & Groß

    1. Viper
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Can we just replace our three strikers with midfielders!? 😉

  9. Rik Waller
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Use my 1 ft on Daniels to Christensen now or save transfer?

    1. Viper
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I'd do it

      1. Rik Waller
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Very tempted. But might be sensible to have 2 fts as to deal with any possible injuries/suspensions

        1. Viper
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Well Daniels should do fine too so maybe 2Fts might be better off

    Who needs out?

    Foster - Elliot

    Bavies - Moreno - Ward - Daniels - Hunemeier

    Alli - Richarlison - Silva - Salah - Carroll

    Kane - Morata - Callum Wilson

  22. Max City

    Has anyone ever done a -8 hit successfully??

    1. ASAP Rocky
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      define successfully...

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Of course.

    3. KUN+10
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Of course. One of your transfers can cover that If its the right one

    4. the snazzy viking
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      yes but that certainly does not include myself

    5. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I'm sure I had successful -8s last year but the two I've taken this year have both been disastrous.

    6. Live Lad
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Yes.

  23. BlzE_94
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Is Gross the best mid to get for 6.0M?

    1. True Blue
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      definitely

  24. True Blue
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Mariappa or Dunk for medium term?
    (cannot affor a 4.5m def)

    1. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Dunk, more nailed.

      1. True Blue
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        exactly my thoughts..
        just that 0.3m saving on mariappa is tempting and getting Dunk leaves me with 0 ITB

        1. Pierce34
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Fair enough - if it's your 5th defender or mostly for your bench I guess there's no harm going with Mariappa.

  25. BlzE_94
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Who would you start out of these 3?

    A) Daniels
    B) Mee
    C) Zanka

    Appreciate any thoughts! 🙂

    1. True Blue

  26. True Blue
    • 9 Years

    is there any parameter/data point in the members section, which lets me check and compare chances of two players/teams keeping CS over the next 8-10 fixtures?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years

      RMT between 2 GKs might be closest.

    Kane - Morata - Callum Wilson

    1. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years

      Moreno->Sakho.You could do Alli+Silva->Hazard+Ramsey/Zaha.

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Excuse a re-ask.
      Last decision this week-

      A. Play Daniels
      B Play Ward ( have Pope)

      Thanks

  28. VardysParty
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Start Otamendi or RLC??

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      The goal machine.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I guess that means Ota.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years

          Magic bean is the other guy.

    2. True Blue
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      rlc, imo

  29. Afghanistanislas
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Would you play Wilson or RLC?

    1. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Wilson

  30. Srv210
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Is there any man utd def who's likely to start every game??

    Also all are going RLC but I think Surman is also returning decent points for that price tag

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Bailly when fit, Valencia. Too much value in mids to be wasting a spot on fodder

    2. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Has to be De Gea if you want 100% nailed United defence I think. I guess Bailly is the most likely one when fit but he hasn't been fit that often.

      As for your second remark - I could be in the minority here but I wouldn't consider anyone in that price range for anything other than my bench.

    3. justlikehoney
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Tough fixtures after this GW for Bournemouth in the next three though. Long-term might turn out to be the better pick, but costs 0.2m over RLC though and you don't want to be spending more than you have to on 5th midfielders that you might bench a lot.

    4. Srv210
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Thanks lads
