We delve into the Opta data next, rolling out our usual post-Gameweek members’ article.

Both Merseyside clubs play a part in our assessment, while we also check out the contrasting fortunes from West Ham and Watford’s goal scoring midfielders.

Southampton’s in-form frontman is also among our featured players, as is a certain Man City wide man after a weekend return to the scoresheet.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Gross to KDB worth -4?

    Already have Sterling

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Of course

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Absolutely

    4. Virgil Hilts
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Get your money spent 🙂

    5. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years

      sideways

    6. 1NAM
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Not for me. Gross has a good home fixture and Watford concede a lot.

  2. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Will this -12 accelerate my progress upwards over the next 3-4 gwks in your opinion or decelerate it? Frustrated with making slow progress and need to push on.

    Outs: RLC, Richarlison, Morata (FT kola to Jones) Ins: Pogba, Coutinho, Depoitre (-12) +0.5m itb for Adrian in next gw

    Gives me:
    Pope (Elliott)
    Jones Otamendi Masuaku (Christensen Dunk)
    COUTINHO POGBA Salah Hazard Sterling
    Kane Depoitre (Niasse)

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Not a -12 I don’t think Richarlison and Morata to score well over next few imo

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Depoitre is a gamble.. Niasse is dropping soon (80p +) just for info

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Annoying but I'm not taking him out for a hit. Could get DCL but it would give me only exact funds for the Adrian move (0.3m itb)

    3. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      -12 will accelerate you in one direction only.

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        And no one likes One Direction

        1. Recoba
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          I do

        2. Rik Waller
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          You don't know you're beautiful - such a tune

    4. gwitbrock
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      This would be a far better gamble if you had DCL instead of Niasse. Too exposed as it is.

  3. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    What do you think about doing Ramsey+Hazard -> Sterling+DeBruyne ?

    Ryan Elliot
    Otamendi Mustafi Daniels Tarkowski Christensen
    Hazard Salah Richarlison Coutinho Ramsey
    Morata Calvert Firmino

    2 FT, 1.7 itb

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Nice

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Can you just do Ramsey to Sterling?

  4. FC Hakkebøf
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Two questions:

    A) Jones or smalling?

    B) Oggy or Masuaka?

    1. Union_Jacks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      JONEs
      Masuaku

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Jones - baps
      Both good, Masuaku for me for attacking potential

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks bud

  5. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    As a Villa fan I suddenly understand why Southampton are doing so poorly. Eric Black is assistant manager

  6. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    1) Kane + RLC (with Salah cap)
    2) Austin + Sterling (C) -4

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Kane could punish you this week.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Really? He’s been punishing me ever since GW1 tbh in my team

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          He has 5 double figure GW scores

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Not gonna get one next 3 weeks really is he tho

    2. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Try to find another way to get Sterling if you can

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Kane or Coutinho

        1. the snazzy viking
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Coutinho. He's not a player I'd like to sell but if you already own Salah then I think you should be good to go. Think of it as a Valencia to Jones-esque transfer

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            See i’d Like to sell Kane really i’m looking to get him for morata for the Double I just don’t see a big score next 3 so waste to hold on for now

            1. Ask Yourself
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              Whereas Coutinho has big points potential would be a shame to see him score big

              1. the snazzy viking
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 2 months ago

                But then again Kane can score big. It's really up to you; personally would not sell Kane but I think if you believe it is the right move then go for it.

                1. Alexis Nonsense
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 2 months ago

                  I think Kane will be needed in the future

                  But I sold him to get this front 7:

                  Salah, de Bruyne, Sterling, Hazard

                  Firmino, Morata, Rooney

                  So far Kane --> Rooney worked out 🙂

                  1. the snazzy viking
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 2 months ago

                    If you're planning to get Kane back for the double then that's a sound idea but always the risk of backfiring

                    1. Alexis Nonsense
                      • 10 Years
                      8 years, 2 months ago

                      Thinking of using free hit to get Kane Eriksen Son for double gw

  7. N00B
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Now with Valencia injured who do you think will play rb ? Young rb and Shaw/Blind lb ; Darmian rb ?

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Wait and see. Difficult to predict

    2. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Valencia tweeted that he was fine. But Mou might rotate as you have speculated

  8. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Ward -> Smalling/Jones for free?
    Yes or no?
    Already have De Gea.
    Thanks.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Why not I say

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Go for it

    3. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

  9. noquarternt
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Kane + Daniels -> Lukaku + Azpilicueta

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Sweet yeah if no morata

      1. noquarternt
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Front line of Kane Tammy DCL at the moment.

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          I prefer mo for the time being but with Pogba back he may well explode again

    2. 1NAM
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Go for it.

    1. Ask Yourself

      Salah

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Tough.
      Salah

  13. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I must be the only one on the site who has taken a -8 and hasn't taken out neither Kane nor Morata

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I sold Morata for a hit weeks ago

    2. dark91
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I think so yes
      Was it for City mids and Pogba?

      1. dark91
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Oh just saw your defence. The -8 will pay off don't worry

        1. the snazzy viking
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Hope so 🙂

      2. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Needed some surgery at the back

        Got Christensen, Jones and Kenny in for Ward, Daniels and Kolasinac, and I'm probably going to have to do Silva to Sterling for the -8

        1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Definitely an upgrade so far 🙂

  14. Rex Lapis
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    get Jones or Smalling?

    1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I need the answer to this aswell!

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Smalling

      ( Jones owner here )

      Monitor Shaw over the next few weeks too... I think he might be breaking into the first team! #Bargain

      1. the snazzy viking

    7. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Jones for me

  15. La vida FPL
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Desperately need city.

    Should I:

    A) Coutinho > Sterling
    B) Hazard > De bruyne
    C) Both-4
    D) other

    Pope, Eliot
    Ota, Jones, Ogbonna, Kenny, Duffy
    Salah, Hazard, Coutinho, Richarlson, RLC
    Kane, Morata,DCL

    0.0 itb

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I have Coutinho Hazard and Sterling and wouldn't sell any of them atm especially not Coutinho

      1. La vida FPL
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        And Salah? I might need to get rid of morata/Kane to fund that

    2. jimmy.floyd
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Morata and Rich to make way out of that lot

    4. Homo Neanderthalensis
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Downgrade Kane or Morata to Rooney, Vardy or Firmino to make some cash up...

      Then upgrade RLC to Sterling

  16. No Luck
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Tarkowski is as good as gone for 3 games isn't he? Which brings Long straight back into contention right?

    1. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes. Long will be in there for the next 3.

  17. @fpl_phenom
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Best striker for £5.3M ? Probly gonna be bench fodder.... just go Quanar in that case and use cash elsewhere?

    Other strikers are Morata and DCL

    1. No Luck
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah Quaner should get minutes with Kachunga injured.

    2. Sideways Backwards
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Crouch

    3. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Cheers guys... il go with Quanar as it leaves money ITB for emergencies.

      Going for power 5 Midfield

  18. Zlat-man
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    RP

    A. Mane, Jesus > Pogba, Kaku

    B. Mane, Yedlin > Pogba, Jones

    Both will cost -4

    1. 1NAM
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I'd keep for one more week. Jesus may play with Silva confirmed out. Bournemouth are leaky at the back

  19. A Betting Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Hennessey / Speroni
    Christensen / Jones / Lowton / Kenny / Mbemba
    Hazard / Salah / Sterling / Zaha / Richarlison

    Already brought Sterling in for Silva and plan to most likely do Zaha > Pogba.

    What should be my 3rd transfer (-8):
    A) Mbemba > Ogbonna
    B) Niasse > Calvert Lewin
    C) Nothing (-4)

    A gives me 5 hopefully playing defs for the xmas period, and 3 good fixtures this GW instead of having to play Kenny vs Chelsea or Lowton* vs Spurs.
    B gets rid of the currently non-playing and falling in price Niasse, but DCL likely wouldn't get in my team.

    1. A Betting Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Forgot my strikers.

      Kane / Firmino / Niasse

    2. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Finding this weeks move tough myself and oddly enough I have the same 3 strikers as you.
      It's most likely I'm going to let Niasse drop.

      Most will tell you that the other options don't merit a -4 and they probably don't but A) has some mileage and may well repay your 4 points this Saturday so I''d reluctantly consider that.

  20. Bees4Lyf
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    just a quick question guys, got ward's SP 4.8, PP 4.6, CP 5.1. if he drops tonight i wont lose any value right?

    1. dark91
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Right

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Correct

    3. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years

      Correct.

  21. Goonermeister

    Kane + Chopo Moting -> Pogba + Lacazette (-4) ??

    1. Robben Mee Blind
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Nah. Not worth a hit

  22. Robben Mee Blind
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Did Ogbonna come through the cup game unscathed? Just about to ship Kiko out for him in case he drops

    1. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes.

      1. Robben Mee Blind

        1. Ibracadabra
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          NP, Good Luck. I own them both and am keeping Kiko as bought at 4.5m so can absorb a drop from 4.6, and am waiting on further news.

          1. Robben Mee Blind
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            I got him just in time for his injury on my WC for 4.6. I've had 0 points from him. No way I'm going to lose 0.1 to rub salt in the wound 🙂

            1. Ibracadabra
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              Yes definitely sell in that case.

  23. Weasel Boy

    Is Silva confirmed out?

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Not confirmed out yet no but I can't see him playing this Saturday when he's got all this other stuff going on

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

      Tragic family loss from what I've heard, doubt he'll even make the squad tbh

    3. Weasel Boy

    Is Kola relegated to Arsenal B team for cups and europa?
    Is there any chance of him starting friday v pools??

    Masuaku in for:
    A) Kola (bought for 6.2 so drop will affect me)
    B) Kiko (bought for 4.5 so can afford 1 drop)

    TV aside if Kola is likely to play Friday I wud want to keep..
    Any suggestions??
