Lateriser 12
An elite Fantasy Premier League manager with three top 200 overall ranks to his name, Lateriser12, picks out some player and team statistics ahead of Saturday’s deadline.
It’s been a while since I did a deep dive into the Fantasy Football Scout Premium Members Area so this is what I’ll be focusing on in my latest article, citing stats that have caught my attention.
“Diego Knows No Jota”
Witm8?
Any correlation with these pro pundits doing rubbish since entering the limelight.. First Jay Eggersdorf, now LR
I was a Pro Pundit last season. Had my personal best season.
#justsaying
Best is an understatement.. your record is immense. My point is though it must play on your mentality and well being once producing content and every decision scrutinised to the nth degree
Not really. I'm used to it to be honest and enjoy the content creation. The way I play is very polarizing imo.
It’s similar to my own. Aggressive and chasing the fixtures for ultimate upside. I’ve no doubt you will climb the ranks in no time
McCarthy
Chilwell / Cancelo / Justin
Bruno / KDB / Ziyech / Jota
DCL / Vardy / Bamford
1. Coufal 2. Kilman 3. Grealish
0,1£ ITB
Now: Cancelo --> James (-4) - yes or no?!
Next GW: Ziyech & Vardy --> Salah & Wilson (-4)
Hope you enjoy the stat focused article 🙂
Excellent as usual 🙂
I enjoyed the introductory paragraph and your photo.
Cheers LT, think I will join the bam bam tutu next week
Good article, thanks
Getting labrador pup next week. Any suggested FPL related names welcomed?
Yakubu
Bam Bam
Sir Labby
Buddie!
Sorry never saw FPL bit!
Buddie doesn’t as FPL is not your friend!
I’d go Bruno instead!
Schlupp
Here Schluppy! I love it, wifey does not.
Schluppy the Puppy!
Won’t be a puppy forever
Pog-ba the dog, duh
Didier Dog-ba
Dammit....Log off Miguel
Gold!
Will run it past the boss
Upside
FPL Addict
Baps
Ross
or Avon (non FPL)
A personal favourite! I like the idea of walking around yelling Baps! Baps!
I think you should call it bubz
He will need a Santa hat too.
I bought a bottle of special 'dog beer' for mine a few years back and wondered why they hadn't called it Charles N'Dog Beer.
So bad it's good!
Capoue
Freehit!
Doggo Jota
As a 12 year old lab owner I'd go with 'Destroyer of property and life freedom'. Love him to bits though....
Yeh, I've heard this from a few people.
Gudboydsson
Best C choice?
A Mahrez
B Kane
C Bruno
D ??
#Martinez,
Zouma, Chilwell, Robbo
Bruno VC, Son, Jota, Mahrez C
DCL, Kane, Bamford
Forster, Coufal, Lamptey, Grealish,
.2 bank
Would go A if you’re sure hell start, otherwise C
Cheers.
A or C
Cheers,
Thoughts on this team? Anything worth a hit or should I roll with 10? 0.1ITB, 0FT
Martinez**
Robbo* - Zouma - Lamptey
Son - Bruno - KDB - Soucek
Vardy - DCL - Adams
(Forster - Kilman - Barkley** - Targett **)
Captain choice?
a) Salah
b) Bruno
c) Dcl
d) Kane
B
A or B leaning towards A
B seems the only viable City alternative this week, but I’d be a bit worried about his minutes now due to their CL situation
B
D
Anyone else looking for a decent 4.5ish def?
A - Coufal
B - Dallas
C - KWP
D - Taylor
E - other?
Would go Kwp short term or Dallas longer term
Think that’s fair, Dallas looks a 1pt this week (net -3 for me to replace Mitch but solves a problem)
Suggestions here? I don't mind take a hit at all to get some city in
1ft 0,0 itb.
(Martinez)
Chillwell Robertson Lamptey
(Grealish) Son Bruno Jota
Kane DCL Werner
Steer, Balbuena, Zambo, Furgesson
A) Kane, Son > Bamford, KDB(C) -4?
B) Save FT
C) Other
A
2 weeks after WC, finally made 0.1 sales profit on Vardy, Ziyech & Cancelo .. consolation prize lol
Morning guys, do I need to use my wildcard here or can it wait another week? 1FT and 1.1itb
Mccarthy (Button)
Zouma Holding Justin (Konsa Mitchell)
Bruno JRod Son Bissouma (Grealish)
DCL Vardy Kane
Could go Bruno to KDB but seems like a waste really
Was thinking JRod + Konsa > Mahrez + Lamptey (-4)
Just noticed Kane is flagged! Do we reckon he'll play next match?
Yeah, Jose is probably just being Jose.
Course he will
Decided not to take a hit for Martinez going with 10
How many hits have you taken?
Seen -12’s mentioned !!!
Thus far, I have the most hits in the whole of fpl history this season.
A total of -128
2 hits so far over the season. Will probably need another one next week.
-16 to date but no doubt that number will increase soon
Would you WC this team? Have quite a few issues and I think it is going to take a -12 or so over 2/3 weeks to fix to be honest.
McCarthy.
Cancelo*, Chilwell, Ayling, Justin*.
Bruno, Jota, Son, Bissouma.
DCL, Kane.
Button, Grealish, Mitchell*, Wilson.
0ft, 4.4m ITB. WC in hand.
WC would be something like this-
McCarthy. (Forster).
James, Chilwell, Dallas. (Targett, Douglas).
Mahrez, Jota, Fernandes, Salah, KDB.
DCL, Welbeck. (Bamford).
0.0m ITB.
Attacking the City fixtures. Backing the Chelsea defence and some decent upgrades I think- although moving away from Spurs attack.
It’s not a great wildcard team in my opinion
Giroud over Wellbeck
I like your wc team, not sure you need dat guy
Morning all, pretty clueless on my next moves. Got 1ft and 0m itb unfortunately.
Best moves here with 1FT and 0m itb.
- only have 8 starters and not a playing bench unless Mitchell and Burke get mins?
- unfortunately can’t even bench villa players as I don’t have any funds to improve Mitchel/Burke and play them instead
- SO, is my only option to shift grealish out? And use remaining funds to improve elsewhere?
Martinez* --- Forster
James Chilwell Lamptey --- Mitchell Lewis*
Kdb Bruno Son Grealish* -- Burke
DCL Kane Watkins*
Leaning towards options A and C is it allows me to improve bench strength in future gw's as Mitchell/burke are dead options.
Would be really beneficial if Mitchell got minutes for whatever reason but unfortunately i cant see it happening
ziyech to jota for free?
Not this week
Wait
Tried to watch Blackbox but it just doesn't sit well with me. So many stats and so much focus on them.. much prefer FMLFPL and to a lesser extent FPL Wire.
There’s also a reason Az and Mark are doing much better than Walsh and Alon.. stats analysis help generate points. FML FPL and Blackbox both brilliant and complimentary. WGTA and Always Cheating are awful in comparison
They're 1M and 400k respectively, it's decent but not particularly amazing - and the rank at GW38 is the only one that matters. You're right though, statistics are very useful, I just enjoy the style of FMLFPL's pods that much more.
Tried one pod of WGTA before the post-restart last season and gave up like half an hour in, it was so dry. Haven't listened to Always Cheating yet and probably won't anytime soon.
Higher level of brain sophistication needed for Blackbox mate
You must really be suffering then 😉
I agree. Saw it for first time a bit back. It isn't bad or anything but no where near on the level of FML or planet for entertainment. Let's face it Mark is the only reason people obsess over it. He focuses on stats way too much . He basically lets OPTA make his decisions like everyone else now.
I think Wire is the one i would watch for proper FPL advice if any as it isn't all stats focused
I think James , Alon and walsh are the best evaluators by far without OPTA telling them what to think.
The FPL Wire guys do a great job, no faffing about, just tell it like it is. Blackbox is more fun due to the banter but FPL Wire has had some great guests so far which evens up the watchability. A close tie for me.
I'm not a stats man myself -beyond what is spoonfed to me on these shows- but don't find it too much in either.
Doing Mané to kdb as my 1ft.
Would you do Kane to jesus for a hit?
McCarthy button
Chilwell James dias ayling mitchell
Mané Bruno grealish soucek bissouma
DCL Kane Bamford
Definitely not.
Oh really? OK thanks!
Only if captaining Jesus
No, would captain kdb or maybe even Bruno.
Cheers
I wouldn't, the FT is enough.
Cheers
U not planning kane to salah next week?
Possibly yes.
If I go jesus, I'd maybe be tempted by kdb to salah
Is Henderson gonna play this weekend in place of De Gea do we think?
Mendy(Forster)
Chilwell Lamptey Cancelo Coufal Neco
Salah KDB Ziyech (Riedewald) (Grealish)
Vardy DCL (Watkins)
0 FT's and 0.2 itb
Cancelo to Dias/Reguilon/Castagne for a hit? Or hope that both Neco Williams and Riedwald play and avoid taking any hits?
Is that a move you'd like to make long term? If so, worth the hit
Yes, Cancelo surely is a transfer waiting to happen imo. Only problem is that Dias might be rested this week, I think Reguilon is good for the next 2 and can be benched for the Liverpool game so suits my team a bit better
I'd go for it then. I've got dias and am thinking he'll be benched!
Need 0.9 to fund Grealish > Mahrez. Which one of Kane, DCL, and Mane should I downgrade?
I would keep grealish
Not worth it
Would rather keep Grealish if you have KDB to cap this week
Will KDB outscore salah by 4 points this week ?
Yep , salah to blank
Imo
really at home ? wolves looked frail against southampton
Will you captain Kev?
Only possible move is salah>kdb -4 and yes I would ofc
Who to captain this week -
A. Bruno
B. Vardy
A
A
A - though you should have put Bruno as option B
Start one
A) Kilman
B) Brewster
Or C) Bissouma
b
What to actually do?
1FT 0 ITB
Foster
Lamptey Chilwell Fofana
Mitchell/Burke Bruno (S)terling Bowen
DCL Kane Vardy
Martinez,Mitchell/Burke,Targett,Grealish.
Which would you rather?
A) Son > KDB, field 8
B) Son/Grealish > KDB/Mahrez (-4), field 9
B would allow me an easy KDB > Salah in GW12. With A I would probably move Mahrez > Jota.
B imo
B
So many issues with the squad at the moment, how would you fix this with 2 FTs?
A) Zaha & Kane to KDB & Adams
B) Son & Zaha to KDB & Jota
C) Zaha & Brewster to KWP & Adams
Current squad is:
McCarthy - Forster
Robertson* - Zouma - Konsa* - Dallas - Mitchell*
Fernandes - Son - Rodriguez - Grealish* - Zaha*
Kane* - DCL - Brewster*
* = injured or might not start
B
Who to remove to bring in Salah -
A. Bruno
B. Kane
I’m wildcarding ahead of gameweek 16 by the way
i wouldnt at this point. But Kane if u want to. Bruno by stats is flying
Neither
kane, easily
Kane, easily
Harry
Am thinking of Rashford to Mahrez this week, followed by Son to Bruno next week... what do u guys think?
Ryan (martinez)
Taylor, Chillwell, KWP (coufal, mitchell)
KDB, Son, Rashy, Ziyech (reed)
DCL, Bam, Vardy
1FT, 0.7ITB
Good plan
No liverpool vs Fulham?
cant afford Salah. Plus united's games from wk 13 to wk 18 is good.
