Paul 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.
Elliot - Quaner - Mariappa + Hunemeiyer (-16 and rip the band aid but atleast have a bench and city mid)
2. Speroni
Alonso - Jones - Naughton
Hazard - Coutinho - Salah - pogba - RLC
Kane - Firmino
Elliot - Niasse - Tarkowski Hunemeiyer (free but no city cover)
3. Speroni
Alonso - Jones - Naughton
Hazard - Coutinho - Salah - pogba
Kane - DCL - Firmino
Elliot - RLC - Mariappa - Hunemeiyer (-8 but gives me a better playing bench but again, no city midfield)
Cheers
In a moment of panic at the weekend I brought in Morata and Lanzini for Aguero and Ramsey for a hit. If Morata gets booked tonight and is suspended, and with Lanzini out for the weekend, would it be worth playing my free hit chip? Would get the hit back, give me a (likely to start) Aguero v Bournemouth and allow me to get XI nailed starters. I don’t want to waste the chip, had wanted to save it for a BGW. But think this may actually be a better use to cancel out my cock up.
Currently looking like this:
Elliot Pope
Jones Otamendi Mee Kenny Wimmer
Lanzini Sterling Salah Richarlison RLC
Morata Kane Firmino
No imo. Just transfer out Morata.
For who? Would be for another hit. Basically a -8 and if I got Aguero back it would be throwing away 8 points (still four points for anyone else)
ITB?
£1.2. Could get any forward I think
It's a major cockup...Free Hit is your Get out of jail free here...or suck it up and take a couple of hits....I'd have a tinker and see what kind of squad you can turn out with the FH first
That’s a good shout. If I can get a solid team out and save 8 points, I could then hope for every PL team to be knocked out of the cup by round 5 haha
Morata likely to be rested. Still need to get through Everton though.
If he doesn’t get the yellow tonight I’m happy to accept the -4 for a non-playing Lanzini and let RLC start. My issue is having to play Mee or Kenny for a suspended Morata and also hope that I don’t have more than one rested
Wow, loads of us tempted to get Kun（C） in for the BOU game and you sold him. Morata prob wont play so no need to waste FH I reckon.
Doesn't it depend on tonight's game..if he is benched then he will play everton
yep...the only risk is that he comes on, gets booked then he'll miss the weekend!
Worst year ever for me... Feeling the need to do something mad / stupid..
Kane, Morata, Richarilson and RlC out to KDB, Sterling, Austin and Firmino for a -12.
Would give me...
Courtios
Kenny Otamendi Kabasele
Salah Coutinho Hazard KDB Sterling
Austin Firmino
pants DCL pants pants
A. Do it..?
B. Stop drinking.
C. Other comments please.....
Firmino is never worth it for a hit. And at least 1 premium is probably a good idea...
I'm considering things just as crazy due to non players. If you have nothing to lose might as well try something different
I'm 2 million ranked never been anywhere near that before. At this point it's do or die i think.
Don't like the Firmino switch- the guy is a troll king. I'm looking at Kane RLC Carroll > Quaner Sterling Sané: can you afford something similar?
Yes like it.
I like something like this a lot more.
Kdb and Haz is too much money on mids making both defence and frontline look poor.
B. The four you’re getting rid of are all decent points getters. If Morata is suspended for the weekend, maybe downgrade to Firmino and use funds next week
Why would Morata be suspended?
I like it, looking at something similar
I’m going B as devils advocate. If (like me) your season has been derailed by a flakey Mr Harold Kane then maybe another way out is to double down on him and TC in GW22. Most people around you at that rank won’t have him and might not even spot the DGW.
Because the games are too close together and West Ham will be well up for the game.
If Sané tears it up again next week I'm buying him. Can't help but feel like he's a massive purple patch player...
Fair comment
He's been outstanding all season he's just been unlucky with fantasy returns of late
Honestly how he got 2 or 3 points in some of those games was mystifying. I've also noticed that when City break they rarely give the ball to him and prefer to play it down the right.
Brilliant player but he tends to play wider than Sterling and doesn’t get into those same positions in the box. I think Sane is undoubtedly better than Sterling but the latter can’t stop scoring atm
team subs and captain look ok for this week??! thanks
Speronni
Jones Otta Ogbonna
Salah Hazard Sterling KDB (c) RLC
Kane Firmino
Pope DCL Francis 3.9
This is a nice team!
I would captain Sterling over KDB. I just fancy him more against the smaller teams who defend deeper because he gets in behind really well now. Kevin will sit back more.
nice!
Which one would you sell? Not sure on extent of injury.
a) Daniels
b) S.Ward
A
Depends on when you bought Ward.
In answer, whichever one your SV is most at risk of being lost soon
4.5
Probably Ward, you can make 0.3 off him right?
Yep
Noting Ward will definitely drop tonite, Daniels nowhere near...
Tough one. Daniels would probably be my choice.
Btw: Would you pull the trigger on Haz to City mid (-4) if you had no other way of getting City cover? Mid is Rich, Pog, RLC, Salah, Haz.
Probably. Easier to watch Chelsea compared to City.
Daniels injury not serious. I would bench this week and then he has an excellent run again
Groin doesn't sound great but agree on the fixtures.
Howe played it down yesterday. They won't beat City anyway so I'm hoping he'll return for Boxing Day
Cheers all.
I'd get rid of Ward first
A)
Although I sold Daniels rather than selling Ward as the 0.1 made a difference in getting Otamendi! I also bought Ward early and might upgrade to Jones next week if I don't go for DeGea. Looks like I'll only be able to get 0.2 profit rather than 0.3 if he drops 🙁
Daniels, Hazard & Silva > Jones, KBD & Coutinho for -4?
Gets rid of 2 injured players , hazard I'd be reluctant to sell but who you getting in seems to make sense
Yes in a heartbeat.
Sounds pretty good that
Is Silva definitely out?
4.6 def
already have kenny and ogbonna
Brighton or Huddersfield
How do you guys see Lingard's potential at his 5.9m pricetag?
Is it worth bringing him in or just put +2m more for Pogba..?
Pay a bit more for Pogba.
Got him as a punt in draft. Remains to be seen if hes the real deal
Pogba at 7.9 still feels like good value to me - given his returns when he makes it onto the pitch. I’m going to try and find the extra 2 mill.
If you can afford Pogba. Get him. He just plays every minute so much more capacity to get bigger hauls.
Bringing Pogba in means in my case downgrading Zaha to RLC and taking a hit. Worth to do so for this gameweek or after without hit?
Pogba
Thx guys
All the fringe players have been getting game time because Pogba has not been there - expect less minutes for these players as the formation is changed to accommodate Pogba - just go for Pogba
Best option to complete this defence? Budget 4.9m
ddg joel
christensen otamendi masuaku mariappa XXXX
Robertson my be an interesting punt.
might
Cheers. Seems nailed?
Yup. Moreno out for at least the end of the year it seems....
Could work then. Thanks!
Cheers!
Has an assist or 2 in him I think.
Absolutely! Fixtures aren't that bad either
Yup. And low ownership.
Milner is an option that Klopp can use if he wants to rotate Robertson and he probably will. But I still think he might be worth the punt.
I reckon Schindler or Hegazi if you don't want to risk Robertson being rotated.
Both have good next 5 fixtures
Has Arteta joined Man City? 😮
He's been there all season.
Didnt really noticed till last night when I saw him behind Pep during PK shootout 😆
Er...
FYI he has been there since the start of last season
Need to get Sterling ASAP. Do I transfer out Haz or do Gross & Kane to Sterling and a £9.4m striker for a -4? Thanks
kane gross to firmino sterling
love it
Do you not have a city mid?
I would bomb hazard and gross for Sterling and Pogba
This
Thanks. Already got Firm. Any others?
Courtois
Christensen Smalling Ota
Salah Haz Anrnie Gross
Kane Firm Rooney
Elliot Simpson Carroll Mbemba
Hadn’t thought of that Hindu. Looks tempting. Cheers
Alonso essential

Thoughts on this lot ?
Pope - Elliot
Otamendi - Kolasinac - Mee - Dunk - Kiko
Hazard - Salah - Sterling - Richarlison - RLC
Kane - Firmino - DCL
2 FT 2.1 ITB
a) RLC, Kolasinac -> Pogba and Ogbonna
or
b) RLC, Kane, Kiko -> KDB, Austin and Alonso -4
Cheers
What abou A and Kiko to a decent defender for a hit? Don't know how much you would have left for the Kiko replacement.
What to do with Lacazette?
Wanted Silva so brought him for Kane.
Worth keeping him for LIV cry wba and then buy Kane for DGW?
Concerned about his nailedness. Sadly have max funds of 10.5 and have Morata already..
Keep with Giroud out now
Keep for now. If no funds to get Luka, Kane or Aguero.
Is silva gonna miss next week too? Highest transferred out player again...
No one knows.
Front line is
Hazard - RLC - Pogba - Coutinho - Salah
Firmino - Niasse - Kane
0ft 0.0itb.
Any moves here on in are hits, how do I get a city player in? Or just go without?
Also any stroker worth getting that's under 4.9?
Cheers
You just don't need triple Pool. That's the sacrifice.
Phil out for Sterling or take the risk. There isn't another option.
Cheers HM appreciate the time and reply
No hits needed? 0.7 ITB
Foster
Otamendi Christensen Ogbonna
Salah Hazard Sterling Richo RLC
Kane Lacazette
Pickford Naughton DCL Mee
Save for sure, even your first sub has a good fixture for a cleab
Best 3.9m defender?
Like asking which Brexit deal is best. None of them!
One must be better in some way. Use whatever criteria you want 🙂
None of them play so everyone is pointless
Long
He's 4
mbemba
it will be a fooder def but sometimes he plays
I have a feeling that you'll be upset no matter which one you pick.
Long is he is still 3.9 is at least a definite 3rd CB for Burnley
Long ,Tarkowski ban incoming
Long is 4.0
zanka or dunk????
Dunk for me. But close.
Tonight will be important for Morata owners:
A) YC Ban (bad)
B) Benched (good)
C) Minimal Minutes (good)
D) Too Many Minutes (bad)
If he plays alongside Hazard we can see if worth keeping the duo thru the delicious fixtures.
Monitor form in this game in case injury persists. He better not get a RC.
Anything else important about tonight...
Bats will play tonight so it will be B or C
And after Everton match at the weekend, Morata YC gets reset right?
Has Mariappa lost his starting spot we reckon
If yes any good replacements around the same price bracket?
Own Kenny already..
top 3 players to have next game week?
1/ Aguero
2/ KDB
3/ Sterling
Aguero, Sterling, Sane 😀
Alli (because I've just sold him)
Kun/Kane (whichever one I choose not to go with)
KDB (because I want him)
Is Kane -> Morata too sideways if I already have Hazard?
It does help me get Sterling however.
For free.
Probably not on here much before Friday so it's a GTG
And bench order ok post. Thanks
Pope
Otamendi Ogbonna Dunk
Sterling (C) Sane (VC) Salah Hazard Richarlson
Kane Firmino
Pereira Quaner Mee Simpson
GTG.
Morning! Thoughts on this lot please?

Kane | Vardy | Austin
Elliot | RLC | Mee | Mariappa

Thanks!
gtg. Who are you captaining?
Cheers, no idea atm!
Looks good. Richarlson needs to play for sure and Vardy often does it against the bigger teams.
Thanks
Nice team, gtg
Cheers
I am on 1051 points...leading by 1 point in my ml. Advice appreciated.
Current team,
pope
mee christ ota
salah richar sterling haz
kane dcl morata
2ft, 0itb
im considering:
kane --> firm
rlc --> sane
morata --> rashford
richar -->pogba
all for -8, would give me..
pope
mee christ ota
salah sterling sane pog haz
firm rash
I wouldnt do Morata > Rashford or getting rid of Richarlison as fixtures are good
Anyone else going for Andre Gray as a short term option?
I would be tempted but already on Lewin for cheaper. Greet fixtures and a very decent option.
Any love for aguero next gw..? He didnt play at all lastnight..guarantee 90 minutes this weekend itseem
I wouldn't say guaranteed 90 mins. But most likely to start, yes.
Im going all out city with silva and sterling in mids..
Not so sure on silva though..
Anything worth a -4 here this week ?
Have £1.3m ITB
Fabianski
Bellerin Otamendi Ake
Salah Ritchie KDB Sterling

Upgrade Ritchie?
Who to?
