FPL half-term report: the 20 Premier League teams ranked by KPI data

The day your number changes 😉

You dont even have Hazard...

You know the risks to not have Hazard by now, but salah and Mane could deliver this week. G2G

sit back and relax

i would be tempted to WC after GW10 if liverpool trio fails to deliver in next 2 games...

Sitting pretty here, just hope Salah and Mane outperform Hazard in the next few.

2

2 has higher potential

2

2 this week - but sort 1 next

Can’t give the game away (there’s not an overall rank anyway) but they are more or less where you would expect. Most attacking KPIs are above average, defensive ones less so.

Tough one with City. Probably nailed but I’d wait and see.

Worth a gamble as long as you have a decent bench option to come in for him

i'm stuck with him, dont think i would pick him on wc

Still play Maddison vs Arsenal.

Alonso Robertson Mendy might bite you in the a** but it’s a good team. Could work.

Too light on defense while most value is on defender imo

Switch out Sterling for cheaper mid.
Better and cheaper options up front than Firminho IMHO.
Invest all these lovely savings in 2 premium defenders.

This. I will downgrade Fraser to Kenedy after the next two (SOU, ful).

Gudmundsson soon

Maddison, Richarlson and Gross for me.

Fraser a season keeper. I see Bou scoring in all games except City

Knockaert

Fraser in 2 game weeks, unless he's proper injured.

Just Hennessey

Hennessey out, monitor Fraser.

Save

C - then A next week for free

Even Klopp knows Salah can't hit a barn door with a banjo atm. Would not surprise me if Firmino got the duty though.

Robertson 😎

I like B but I would get Vardy and Mane. Monitor Mane this 2 gws and replace him with KDB if necessary.

1 is more essential but a kane/moura double up is also not necessary. if you dont have salah you need mane though.

can you afford or get someone better than Ryan?

West Ham have certainly improved their defence and I think the upcoming run of games looks good for them. Balbuena at 4.4 looks an appealing option as he's a contender in the BPS and also a big threat from set pieces. I have considered buying him after the Tottenham game.

that balbuena guy can be useful

their fixtures are very good. between yedlin and balbuena for me atm

doherty wont get attacking returns every week so they are pretty similar imo

Jonny is just about as attacking as Doherty but his main flaw is picking up yellow cards and that could affect his bonus points potential.

Jonny is very attacking, no comparison with Bennett

I think doherty is the superior asset. jonny doesnt get as forward especially away from home.

wait till he actually performs imo

for Newcastle? nah

Stats are dreadful so far this season

Not for me. He has played left back at times this season. If you just want a 5th mid to throw on the bench then he is an option. But not as a starter.

Couldn’t hit a cow’s @rse with a banjo 🙂

Would love him at Chelsea lol

Maybe. Could say he never really got a chance but also didn’t really take too many of his opportunities that he did have. Hard to put him in ahead of Suarez. Sometimes players arn’t the right fit at the given time. Certainly seems to be returning towards the CF that he showed at Valencia

just get both m8

Lol the reverse move would be better

Makes no sense

It looks like you are trying too hard.

Or is it worth overlooking Salah for this week to see how Liverpool look after the IB??

It’s a tough decision to sell any of those 3 this week.

I’d probaly wait a week to get Salah if you’re not going to cap him this week.

Maybe Fraser as you’ll probably want to get rid of him in 2 gameweeks.

Maddison’s fixtures and Richarlison playing up front rules them out for me.

Fraser a season keeper. I see Bou scoring in all games except City

I am dropping Pogba. My midfield is Pogba-Hazard- Fraser - Maddison- Ward.

I will likely switch Pog/Kane to Salah/Arnie.

So I was all set to do Kane and Dsilva to Lacca and Salah...

However, i realised that i will want KDB and Fraser fixtures turning means i have to consider now Mane and Lacca to then afford KDB later...

its possible

Patricio

Fabianski 2nd in line

Pat

I am happy with Ryan but either should be ok. Fabianski would tempt me in a WC.

Probably in the minority but I would go Ryan, more on the basis that if you have a Wolves def, upcoming double ups look less appealing. It is a close call tho

Was about to ask the exact same thing. Already have a wolves defensive double up so avoiding pat. At the moment I’m on Fabianski for the saves

Pat

Hold

Your only problem area as I see it is 2 Palace backs

Player I would want out: Begovic, Scmeichel, Tomkins, Neves. So no need for WC

none

Solid team.

I personally prefer bench fodder 5th mids so that I don't get benching headaches. Assuming you will play 4-3-3 or 3-4-3 most weeks, I'd downgrade Knockaert to 4.5 mid. Then keep the spare cash to upgrade Wilson in 2 GW for Arnie and possibly then get Knockaert in for Fraser since BOU fixtures turn.

B

Aint it a bit early for KDB?

lascellas

I’ve got Yedlin in fpl(don’t ask) Lascelles would be the one, if he is fit?

B

I am! If I have to choose between the two, Murphy!

They both looked fairly lively in the one game I watched, against Burnley. Better options out there. Cardiff just are not very good, whilst that doesn’t mean there isn’t a source of points, I don’t think there will be a consistent points scorer ala Adam in that Blackpool side from years ago

Nope

B purely for Arnie

A

I like it. For all the names you mentioned as fillers, I don’t think I have any real memory of success with any of them. Maybe it’s why Aguero is a security blanket of sorts

Iheanacho C, 1 goal 1 assist, 6m itb. Cant remember season though.
