The Big Numbers – Gameweek 23

We roll out our post-Gameweek members’ article, assessing some of the standout contenders over the previous round of fixtures.

West Ham, Spurs and Man United midfielders are among our featured players, while Chelsea’s left wing-back joins a pair of Bournemouth and West Brom assets in catching the eye.

      I like the move! Everton fixtures till the end are amazing!! See him being 5.3-5.4 after a month or so

  2. RAFA THE GAFFA

    6 years, 5 months ago

    Looking at this! 2FTs, 0.1ITB. Good moves?

    Fabianski >> Pickford
    Depoitre >> Ayew

    Pickford
    Masuaku • Otamendi • Christensen
    Son • Salah • Richarl • Sterling • Arnie
    Kane • Aguero

    (Elliot / Ayew / Duffy / Kiko*)!

    1. Lingardium Leviosa.
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Christensen?

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        No idea! Chelsea fans???

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Yep

  3. Who Ate All Depays?

    6 years, 5 months ago

    Guys, any suggestions on this WC team?

    Pickford
    Alonso / VVD / Jones
    Salah / Sterling / Mahrez / Arnie
    Kane / Firmino / Wilson
    (Elliot / Bardsley / Mcarthur / Mbemba)

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Very template but very nice 🙂

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Probably want another Citeh player in there.

    3. Haggis
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Think I’d rather have Ibe and JAyew in a 3-5-2

  4. Lignja
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Hi, need some help here if posable 1ft 2.8itb

    DDG
    Alonso, Christiansen, Otamendi, Mee, Masuaku
    Salah, Sterling, Arnautovic, Lingard, RLC
    Kane, Firmino, 4.5

    a. Rlc to Lanzini
    b. Rlc to Ramsey
    c. Rlc to Ox leaves me money to upgrade Christiansen to Azpi or Lingrad to Pogba
    d. 4.5 to Wilson leaves me money to upgrade Christiansen to Azpi
    e. save play Masuaku in 442

    1. KUNingas
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      A

  5. Dreaming of glory
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Bottomed out
    Rooney (WBA) to firmino (swa) for a -4
    Or wait until after next game?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Wait Everton have nice fixture

    2. Lingardium Leviosa.
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Could pay off handsomely

  6. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    What to do with Cresswell, keep for the next few ?

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Unless you have a transfer to burn I'd keep.

  7. Lee8686
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    2FT 0.0 ITB

    A) Son & Vertonghan> Salah & 3.9def
    B) keep son and make changes elsewhere

    Pickford
    Vertonghan, Alonso, ota, masuaku
    Son, Sterling, Lingard, Arnie
    Kane(c) Aguero

    Adrian, Mee, GroB, DCL

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Hell you need salah. But perhaps mane instead with Ox. For Arnie ?

  8. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    A lot of noise about Carroll to Chelsea on a perm now for c.£30m.

    I heard something about Collins to Brighton too, which is a shame from a west ham perspective. Hopefully not.

    1. Lee8686
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      30m??????

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        I know. Surely it will be less.

        Shelvey close to joining west ham too apparently. Not thrilled about that.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Always injured so that money could be well spent.

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Sullivan and Gold spending well? Unlikely I'm afraid. Spending at all would be something.

    3. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      More of a shame for Brighton if they sign Collins.

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Solid experienced back up. Doesn't want to leave.

    4. Lee8686
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Would mean he's accumulated nearly £100m in transfer fees.....crazy for a player with about 50 prem goals in his career. Haha

    5. Homer21
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Why, surely the bench at West Ham is just as comfortable as the one at Chelsea

  9. Salah Daze
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Your thoughts please on my next moves?
    Current team:
    Pickford - Elliot
    Azpilecueta - Otamendi - Mee - Daniels - Ogbonna
    Salah - Sterling - Son - Lingard - Doucoure
    Kane - Firmino - Wilson
    I transferred Rooney to Wilson yesterday to free up 1.9m and 1 FT left this week. I'm considering these two moves next, but in which order of priority?
    A) Lingard -> Arnautovic
    OR
    B) Daniels -> VVD/Jones/Maguire
    OR
    C) Please insert your ideas here!
    Thanks in advance 🙂

    1. Lee8686
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Daniels to Maguire looks solid....I have Lingard and for his price he is still well worth having

      1. Salah Daze
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks - I was leaning that way too - good fixtures and already tried and tested in the Leicester defence. Still leaves me with around 1.3m for a rainy day

  10. KUNingas

    6 years, 5 months ago

    Morata will punish us

    1. Lingardium Leviosa.
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Based on his recent form I reckon he'd need to score at least a hattrick to make sellers cry

    2. MTPockets
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Beyond caring now. Sold

      • Lukakuna
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        At least he'll punish everyone equally 😉

      • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Morata owner?

      • HashAttack
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        🙂 ... Morata & Laca up top .. .essential?

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Just bought a Canon 70-200mm 2.8 IS. It was worryingly cheap at £565. Anybody out there bought something on Amazon for way under the usual price and had a bad experience? Should I get insurance in case it has a problem down the line?

      1. Wetdream
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        If you have paid by credit card or paypal you should be covered anyway.Amazon are normally quite good and wouldnt allow dodgy sellers to sell through them.

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Paid on Amex. I bought another lens months ago and didn't try it out immediately which was stupid and the auto focus doesn't work.

      2. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Bought this beauty on eBay - https://goo.gl/images/HhEBSe

        Takes great pics of Kane in Swansea......

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Go stuff yourself.

          1. Jafooli
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            😉

      3. Sims
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        only one way to find out. take a picture of your team and see if you can differentiate between players with the same kit

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Haha. You've read my history. 🙂

          1. Sims
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            bad luck, something similar happened to me 2 seasons ago and i felt horrible but it can easily get back on tract in 1 week

      4. Lukakuna
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        If it seems fine on first test it shouldn't work fine for a long time.

        1. Lukakuna
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          should* hehe

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Just had bad experiences with cheaper sales. Look so good at first but then there's a deeper lying problem after a while.

            1. Lukakuna
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 5 months ago

              With lenses?

              1. Rupert The Horse
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                6 years, 5 months ago

                Happened with a lens and a Canon 7d

                1. Lukakuna
                  • 7 Years
                  6 years, 5 months ago

                  Never had any problems with second hand lenses that look fine at first, but camera bodies are a different story yeah! Make sure you test it thoroughly 🙂

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Chance he's selling you a non-IS version? Were there pics? you have a link to the item?

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Definitely advertised as an IS

          1. gwitbrock
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah problem is there are so many iterations of that lens that are so similar that either without the seller really knowing or through cheekiness they can get away with misadvertising if there arent any pics

            1. gwitbrock
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 5 months ago

              fwiw the non IS is way lighter and obv cheaper so def benefits to it, depending on what you're using it for mostly. If sports then obv you'll want to get the IS as I'm sure you know

              1. Rupert The Horse
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                6 years, 5 months ago

                Thanks bud.

      6. gwitbrock
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Def worth getting insurance anyway, though all versions of that lens are pretty solid

    4. Wetdream
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      If you could pick 3 defenders to own between now and Gw 34 who would they be ??

      1. leo_messi
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Otamendi,Alonso,Maguire with DDG in goal for me

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Yep

      2. Alexis Nonsense
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Jones Alonso VVD

      3. MTPockets
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Alonso, Arsenal, VVD/Leicester

          1. Wetdream
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Arsenal ?? :O

            1. MTPockets
                6 years, 5 months ago

                Probably best fixtures if they can keep clean sheets. If.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Alonso, Jones and Otamendi

        • Dr. DOOM
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          RLC to Arnie (-4) worth it?

          1. Wetdream
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Depends on rest of team

        • Lukakuna
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Do we think Christensen will start on Saturday? Anyone know what goes on in Conte's head?

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Depends on how long Cahill is out for.

            1. Lukakuna
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 5 months ago

              But Rudinger is ahead in line now?

              1. Rupert The Horse
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                6 years, 5 months ago

                Lots of issues. But I'd like to think he could get a few games.

          2. Bald Eagle
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            I think he will, he said today that Ampadu will play tomorrow, so he might give Christensen a rest tomorrow.

          3. Balls of Steel
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Also hoping Christensen starts as not had much points return since buying and planning to shift on soon

                  hope it's just managing his return from a groin issue and not a recurrence of it...

          Still thinking should I do Depoitre -> Wilson and play him instead of Zanka/Ogbonna..

          DDG
          Alonso, Mustafi, Zanka, Ogbonna
          Salah, Sterling, Son, Arnautovic
          Kane, Firmino

          Elliot, Depoitre, Mee, RLC

            Vertonghen and Calvert-Lewin to Rüdiger and Wilson for free?

            Or is Rüdiger not nailed?

            Thank you!

              I think he would be a great asset in the Prem if he wasn't going to Arsenal and getting service from that awful midfield... *See Lacazette.

                      Alli has a better record against Southampton than Kane does.
