Our regular post-Gameweek delve into the members data examines Leicester’s strike duo and chief creator, Robin van Persie’s toils up top for United, Alexis Sanchez’ goal threat and the contrasting form of the leading candidates in the race for the Golden Boot.
Team looks dreadful this week but i've 2 free transfers
Ospina
Terry, Baines, Ivan
Hazard, Ramsey, Sterling, Cambiasso
Kane, Aguero, Vardy
Henderson, Skrtel, PVA
Thinking Sterling + Ivan -> Sanchez & Vlaar or McShane
Any better option out there?
If that's without a hit then it looks good to me.
Is Sanchez going to rise?
On 87% to rise on FFF (due tomorrow)
and he'son 88& on FPS mate, looking like tomorrow is his day mate*he's on 88%
Thanks zasa. I'm going to hang on and hope I'm not priced out. There may be more info on haz/fab/Ramsey by tomorrow

Arsenal's history versus Swansea makes for interesting reading, especially when Arsenal have the pressure on to avoid finishing 4th and Swansea head to the Emirates uber chilled.
P.S. It looks like Tom Brady lied in deflategate.... 🙁
G2G?
Krul
Dawson Terry Monreal
Hazard Ramsey Silva Bolasie
Kun Benteke Kane
Pants Toby Hendo Skrtel 1.3 ITB
Subs in right order and Kun or Tekkers Cap?
Gtg. Kun I think
Who to play?
Skrtel or cambiasso
Sterling or HendoCamb
HendoI think Gerrard will play and then Hendo loses set pieces. Cambiasso and Sterling
Wow, I just met Hazard here in San Diego CA! What a very nice and humble lad. Signed my Chelsea jersey and everything.
happy days......
😆
Very cool! In sunny San Diego, too!
No way! I saw Cuadrado in a park earlier, he was sitting on a bench watching a few lads play a match.
Will meet him tomorrow at the beach.
Have another beer.
Cheers! Just cracked a modello! MAGIC
Looks like john terry is the best Chelsea bet this week. He holidays in Blackpool to avoid meeting too many foreigners.
Damn...Ramsey and benteke up!!
Brilliant video from Suarez: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suIc74Zlwas
Nice video
Price Changes, May 7th, 2015.
Risers: Ramsey Benteke Cazorla Agüero
Fallers: Henderson
Cheers Zasa
3 up
0 down
TV 110.4 🙂Fix that rank now. 😛
I'm on it Torres 4 green in a row finishing strong my friend
Good finish. Shame about Myhill.
Cheers.
Another 0.1 to find 🙁I know the feels, wasn't expecting the Hendo drop myself 🙁
I have Hendo to but had 0.1 to spare.
If I got 2 Arse mid then 0.1 more needed.Ah ok, fair dos. Just realized his first drop doesn't effect his SV at least 🙂
What are your plans for him TM, keeping 'til the end? Thinking of selling both Pool mids myself.50/50
Might sell in GW37 for a Sun mid or take a punt in GW38.
Bad TV means Fab & Sterling have to go if I want 2 Arsenal mids.Yeah, thnking along the same lines but will both this week for a Sunderland milf and Sanchez for a hit. What a shame about Gerrard being back though, really dents Hendo's appeal. I like those moves TM, Fab and Sterling are definitely good scapegoats for an Arsenal milf.
Thanks zasa. Cazorla was behind Sanchez on fpl stats
Nice. My early transfer out of Hendo wasn't in vain after all.
Thanks Zasa.
3 risers, 1 faller. Damn.
Will meet him tomorrow at the beach.
Cazorla rose!
Risers : Ramsey Benteke Czaorla Aguero
Faller : Henderson
Evening. So Ozil will be a differential then? Always the one I wanted, but am surprised at the lack of interest in him.
I'm planning on getting him in. Don't tell anyone, though.
Ozil+Cazorla+Sanchez for me. I've not seen a single team with these 3 on here. Trying to be bit different.
That looks great. Already committed to Giroud otherwise ai would be tempted by that midfield.
thinking of same but ramsey except cazrola. Then again cazrola on penalty is tempting
I like the look of him but recently it seems he is playing well but not converting that into points. That's certainly worrying. He seems less explosive, too, Caz and Ramsey more likely to get goals (and hence bonus) but Ozil more likely for assists
I honestly can't see Ramsey playing all 4 league games.
I can
He's one of the club's top top players, though. And, in bang on form.
I meant *starting
He may not. Tough to predict. I just know I've seen enough to not want to go without. His little haul the other day vaulted me into first in all three of my mini leagues. He's playing about as good as he ever has right now, according to me.
If I'm Wenger I'd start him and take him off early, depending on scoreline. As long as we're still in the running for the 2nd spot, though.
You could be right but still wouldn't be surprised if Theo gets a start against Sunderland or West Brom.
Wouldn't be surprised either. But chances are too slim imo
I won't lie. A bit of me worries that there could be some rotational conundrums.
That's not my point. I think Theo will get a game in last 2 & Ramsey will be "saved" for FA Cup final.
Agree with your last point, Enlightener. He could still do the damage even if he misses a game.
I'm just trying to convince myself as I won't buy him.Fair point.
fwiw I won my ML last year on the very last GW, pipped the leader with that Ramsey volley. Lightning never strikes twice - or does it? 😉That same goal cost me top 1k! 🙂
Still bitter.Aah, unlucky.
Had such experience in season 2012/13 - Bought Sagna GW38, ARS conceded and cost me top 3k. Screw the blocking strategy.
Now let's move on 🙂
I did Skrtel and Fàbregas to Stones and Sánchez for free
Schmeichel
Kos / Terry / Stones
Sánchez / Hendo / Hazard
Vardy / Austin / Aguero
My other players are Schlupp, Boyd and Sterling
A) Play 4-3-3 with Schlupp
B) Play 3-4-3 with Sterling
C) Play 3-4-3 with Boyd
D) Sterling to Gomez and play him
Next week I will do Sterling and Austin to Gomez and Giroud (-4)
B
A
I have Henderson, still B??
A
Thoughts on what to do here lads?
Krul
Terry - Kosc - Dawson
Sanchez - Haz - Silva - Sterling
Aguero - Kane - Vardy
Panti; Henderson, Toby, PvA
0.0ITB + 1FT
Sterling > Cazorla make sense?
Yes or Sterling to Albrighton and later Vardy to Gru
yes if you're not sold on Giroud, Ozil or Rambo
I'd like a second Arsenal mid. Can't afford Ozil or Ramsey without ripping my team up a bit.
Indeed.
So go Santi. Another option for you is save FT, and do Toby & Sterling -> Wasi & Ozil next week. Good luck.
I've Cazorla. I think he'll get a Penalty in remaining 4. Seems like nailed on & playing the Fabregas role in that attacking side. Good for assists & odd goal.
Cheers mate.
Start albrighton or hendo??
Toby or bellerin?Albrighton and Bellerin.
Thank you sir
+1
Anyone else selling both kane and hazard this week?
Maybe I am a maverick after allU crazy?!
Too maverick for my liking, but could do wonders
you rebel! alexis and giroud?
Alexis and Tekkers 🙂
even better 😉
Guys what would your recommend for my team this week?
K Davies
PVA Skrtel terry Alde bellerin
Haz Sanchez Hendo Alby silva
Kun Kane Gru
How do I look for this gameweek? 1.2itbg2g
Schmeichel
Kos / Terry / CHESTER
SÁNCHEZ / Fàbregas / Hendo / Hazard
Vardy / Austin / Aguero
I´m thinking Skrtel and Sterling to Dawson and Sánchez
I will only play Dawson this week HOME against Burnley because I can play Kos/Terry/PvA at DGW37 and play Kos/Terry/Schlupp at GW38
Yes or No??
It´s better to have two Chelsea mids than two Pool??
Hi gents, any ideas on this lot?
Schmeichel
Bellerin Terry Dawson
Haz Fab Silva Henderson
Aguero Giroud Kane
Davis, Fonte Skrtel Boyd
2FT, 0.4ITB
Thinking on Fab & Fonte > Sanchez & PvA, thoughts?hi James1.
Yes those moves look very good. Considering you're benching Fonte this week, I'd do that in a flash 😉Good morning mate 🙂
Which three Arsenal players you're getting?Rambo and Alexis already in. Torn between Giroud/Santi/Ozil atm. Look below 🙂
Yep, sounds good.
Cheers, do you think Bellerin will start both games in the DGW?
If Debuchy is injured then I'm quietly confident. If not then probably just the one.
Thanks mate.
Thinking ahead. Which pair is better to play for DGW37?
A. Giroud + Hendo/Albrighton
B. Santi + Defoe
C. Ozil + Vardy
If B or C, I need to bench one of JT/Ivan/Skrtel. Who?C. vardy is away at sunderland in what should be a very open 6 pointer. form he's in he will run riot
If C I will have an extra FT for GW38 since I already have PVA & Panti. Not sure if I want to triple up SUN defense 😆
lol im looking at that situation too nabil, two frees for 38 , not the worst thing imo, can have a few fun 1 gw punts..
or i could do kane to a sunderland striker but hull (h) for kane makes it kinda riskyAgree! Who knows we can have a shot at GW38 heroes like Nolan, Lukau etc.
All depending on TOT's motivation imo.
even better then. final roll of the dice
Cheers Champ. you got me thinking.
C imo, are you getting them for free?
yes
Cool. I'll have to take a hit if I want to get my 3rd Arsenal attacker.
Really? I thought you already got Bellerin & Giroud, and bringing in Sanchez for free.
My bad - I thought 3rd ARS player. 😀
Good luck with Bellerin - he's 1st choice atm but anything can happen.Cheers mate.
A. Giroud + Albrighton
Thanks for the replies.
Any idea where can I find this article of "End Game" by Triggerlips? Thanks.
The game's ended.
Money on Rockets or Clippers?
Clippers. Blake is just in insane form.
Indeed. Harden's too good to ignore though.
In a huge hole if they lose this like it looks like they will.
transferhub.com
wtf am i thinking of 😕
Ah, the man in question. Thanks. 🙂
Has someone here been talking bout it?
yes nick someone mentioned in the comments to ruth's hulked post that it's essential reading
Bet it wasnt RuthNZ 😀
Excellent. 🙂
Anyone here ever watched the TV show The Beachcombers?
Yes, essential 70s viewing on a Sunday afternoon - just after Weekend World but before the footy. Can't remember much about it though, except the bad guy was called Relic.
Nice! Relic was surely a pest of sorts. I didn't grow up watching it (I grew up in Ohio), but a few years ago reruns started airing on a channel I had as part of my cable package when I was living in North Carolina. I got a kick out of it and just remembered it for some reason.
To those selling hazard because of his holiday pics - think thats a bit kneejerk, game is on sunday, could easily have even today off and be back for sunday
jose has more respect for united than any other team in the league, he owes it to them to play hazard imo..
I'm selling bc he'll *probably* miss one of the final 3 games & there are several amazing mids who'll most likely play 4 games over the same perioid.
hopefully he respects liverpool just as much 😉
i am selling haz next week so if there is a risk he may not play this week, i will bite the bullet and sell him
i think he will not be in the line up (too little time for prep)i just can't sell him, seeing hazard relegate sunderland gw 38 will be one of the highlights of the season for me
@Champ/Zophar,
Just remembered that I'm 0.1 short of doing straight Hendo -> Ozil swap. Now I still need to use the other FT - downgrading Skrtel to a 5.8 defender 🙁albrighton/giroud then mate
yeh albrighton and giroud move is solid mate, dont bother with the .1 crap
which two would you play from bertrand (lei), moreno (che) and bolasie (MUN)
just assume moreno will start btw. 90% sure he will. cheers
Why are you 90% sure he will?
Bertrand and Bolasie for meWhich two would you start from Vlaar (WHM), Hendo (che) and Bertrand (lei)?
Vlaar and Hendo for me.
Cheers mate.
because he's fit now and first choice left back.
i'd play berty and hendo mateHe's been fit since (including) the Hull game. Wouldn't say he's first choice left back.
Cheers.He wasn't fit for Hull, only started training just before the QPR game.
No, he was dropped for the Hull game. And deservedly so.
he was injured nick and wasn't fit enough to start v qpr according to rodgers
No, Ben Dinnery is a total numpty
this 🙂
Bertrand & Bolasie
Which one would you start from Hendo(che), Skrtel(che), Boyd(hul) and PvA(eve)?
Tough. Hendo for me.
See above?skrtel mate
Cheers guys.
bert and bolasie
bench Berty
cheers guys. I have bolasie and moreno in atm. will have a think about berty instead.
Surely you'd play Bertrand (lei) over Moreno (che)? Don't quite see the logic in that one
I just think liverpool are a bit more likely to keep a clean sheet. that game has boring nil all written all over it the way the two teams are playing. leicester are fighting for their lives and I can't see them not scoring against a southampton team that seems to have fizzled out the last few weeks. disagree?
disagree about boring nil nil there, think shackles are off chelsea and will be eager to prove the boring boring doubters wrong
you might be right. seems me and nabil are the minority here. food for thought thanks peeps
they'll probably both get 2 points though
I do disagree. I think a Moreno cameo is more likely than a Liverpool clean sheet. Chelsea have now one the title, so there's no reason for them to shut up shop. I think Mourinho will go for the three points.
Good point about Southampton but I still think they have more of a chance of a CS. Also Bertrand is nailed on and attacking so he's the better option imo.
This^
good points nick cheers. I'm swaying 🙂
No worries mate.
I think Mourinho puts out a team to win because he wants to rub it in faces of other "big" clubs. Then he locks it down and settles for another 1-0 win. I can't see Liverpool keeping a clean sheet; the only ones they've put up recently have been against a dreadful Newcastle and against a West Brom team that was set up to achieve the 0-0 that they achieved. They've conceded goals to QPR and Hull and gave up four to Arsenal, the last quality team they faced. I'd gamble on getting some attacking return out of Bertie. I am.
thanks mate. read an interesting stat that bertrand made the most passes in final third of any saint last weekend.
good points all. it was always a very close call for me, hence asking here. you all speak sense.
*takes moreno out for bertrand
Bertand & Bolasie
Some input needed guys , team ATM:
Ospina (Schmeichel)
Terry Ivan Mcshane (Skrtel PVA)
Hendo Cambiasso Hazard Silva (Sterling)
Aguero Kane Giroud
1 FT and .4 ITB
When I wildcarded in 34, the plan was to ignore sanchez and bring in ozil in 36. but sanchez just cant be ignored now. also tempted by benteke.
options
1. Sterling and hendo out for albrighton and sanchez (-4), got .1 wiggle room for that too. with this i can bank a ft in 37 and play silva in 37 and 38
2. Sterling out for albrighton and benteke in for kane (-4). then do silva to sanchez in 37. with this I would end up playing hendo in 37 and 38.
opinions appreciated!I prefer 1
1
Option 1.
you can also try downgrading Ivan instead to fund Sterling-> Sanchez.This
1
but sterling to ramsey for free might be betterThanks for the input lads, leaning towards 1 as well
Nabil - three reasons I don't want to lose ivanovic - Jose said he will play every game, secondly, with the shackles off he could be a lot more attacking. This way I can bench Albrighton in 37 and play skrtel terry Ivan pva haz Silva kun Kane and the 3 arsenal
Should I play Skrtel or double up on soto defense? Very tricky
Very close but Skrtel to simply spread the risk
Was thinking the same. Thanks fella
Congrats on your overall. That's amazing.
Thanks mate. Good luck for the rest of your season.
Gargatron says I am 11pts behind the top 10K and 40 pts behind the top 5k
Two simple mistakes: Not putting Schmikes in on wildcard in 34 (still don't know why I didn't) and benching Albrighton for N'Doye in 35 = 28 points.
Arrrghhhhhhhh the pain. Give me a coping strategy
