We delve into the Gameweek 3 data this evening in our first members article of the week. Up front, we assess Bournemouth, Chelsea and Liverpool’s lone forwards, whilst there’s plenty to analyse in the centre of the park, as we take a look at some standout statistics from Villa, Palace, United, West Ham and Norwich.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Butland (Boruc )
    Kolorov / Gomez / Azpi (Shaw & Cameron)
    Yaya / Shaqiri / Mahrez / Pedro (Redmond)
    Agüero / Benteke / Wilson

    WC team, any advice is appreciated!

    1. Jordan. R
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Costa for aguero
      Kolorov for smalling
      Yaya for coutinho

      1. LC1
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Trolol.

      2. Woy of the Wovers
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        That's quite amusing.

      3. PippoPLZ
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Famous last words.

  2. The Mighty Whites
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    WC Active, good team?

    Myhill / McCarthy

    Darmian / Kolarov / Gomez / Cameron / Targett

    Sanchez / Silva / Pedro / Mahrez / Anya

    Aguero / Gomis / Wilson

    1. FPLord
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Solid template team. You could get Yaya for Silva and upgrade Targett and McCarthy. Could also backfire, but I prefer definite starters...

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      What will you do when Foster, Speroni, Bertrand are back?

      1. The Mighty Whites
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Could do Silva to Yaya & McCarthy & Targett to Martin & Guzan?

        1. Woy of the Wovers
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Easier to do that now. But not sure on Guzan.

    3. Jordan. R
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Sanchez --> willian
      Aguero--> costa

      1. Farcelona
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Surely a troll?

  3. FPLord
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Whom to get for Depay?
    Coutinho or Yaya (have Kun as well).
    I'd personally prefer Coutinho due to his explosiveness but Liverpool have just scored twice this season which points to Yaya...

    1. Jordan. R
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      No points to Liverpool scoring sooner

    2. Ruth_NZ
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Depay I'd say.

    3. SuperMario
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Hold this week I would have thought?

  4. Stannage
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Hi.....Who do u think the best option for a 4.5 defender is? From gw5....don't want stoke, Leicester, Norwich or Sunderland ....

    Choice seems to be.

    Francis
    Ward
    Nyom
    Souare

    1. ManofKent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Out of those I'd go Francis for fixtures

    2. JaydenLFC87
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Francis

  5. Richd
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Shall I bench boost to get Surman, Francis v Lei and Williams v Utd, involved ?!?

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Without doubt

      1. Richd
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        No Point keeping for DGW, surely ?

        1. Scotty Pippen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          That's my dilemma too! Got Gomez(or Mert), Targett and Westwood on the bench this week with some nice fixtures, debating whether to play my bench boost this week or save later for DGW

  6. pompeyfan
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone else think that Rooney could prove a huge problem for Man Utd soon?

    He's clearly not the right man to be their only striker right now, but there isn't really a spot for him in midfield either. I'd be quite happy to see LvG bench him for a while

    1. Lucy.
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      I think he'll get dropped back into the hole if they possibly can.

      1. pompeyfan
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        but that might disrupt the quality players they have their like Mata & Depay etc..

        1. Lucy.
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Depay looked best on the wing and he clearly doesn't see Mata as a no.10 or he'd have played him there already.

      2. Ruth_NZ
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Could be behind Fellaini. That would be fun.

        Also, please excuse me, I dumped Pelle. 🙁

        1. Lucy.
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Haha no worries. 🙂 I dumped Mané last week. We're chaotic to say the least.

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Amazed they didn't push for benteke

      1. Rata
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Playing Rooney behind Fellaini (role as number 9) and having Depay's cross from the left flank, well United might just explode Swansea's defence this week!

  7. ManofKent
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Convince me that with Wilson's attempts in the box and Bournemouth's easier run that Gomis to Wilson is foolish...

    If it matters I've got Atew in midfield.

    1. pompeyfan
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      it is a gamble but it's always best to jump off just before people stop scoring so if you feel that Swansea's fixtures will result in a drop in Gomis' output then why not.

      Ayew should be a good source of points there anyway

  8. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    I'll ask again.

    A) Depay -> Cout (free)
    B) Depay + Gomis -> Tekkers + Shaq/Chadli/Gradel (-4)
    C) Depay + Gomis -> Diouf + Cout (-4)
    D) Save

    I just don't feeekin know.

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Save

    2. FPLord
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      A, why get rid of Gomis for a hit?

      1. Lateriser 12
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Tekkers.

      Well, you were unshiftable on Depay last week ...

      1. Lucy.
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        This is a good point actually, you were in love with Depay.

        1. Lateriser 12
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Still am but fixtures. Depay could change my mind tonight.

          1. Lucy.
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            But the fixtures didn't change...

            1. Lateriser 12
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              Was a decent one week punt. You lot are right though. Will ponder. Thanks.

              1. Lucy.
                • 12 Years
                10 years, 3 months ago

                Too early for one week punts, imo.

    4. ManofKent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      A

    5. Lucy.
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      A. Gomis out is not worth the hit. (again)

      Save. Depay is a keeper and you'll only end up buying him back.

    who would you play this week?

    A. Darmian(Swa)

    B. Payet(Liv)

    Cheers!

  13. Farcelona
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Does anyone else think van Gaal isn't serious about playing Fellaini up front and that it's just a ploy to try and reduce the price of some forward he's trying to bring in (or some nonsense along those lines)?

    1. Surezh06
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      With his height and ability to hold of the defenders he his not a bad as striker.He wont score that many goals,but he will draw/hold the defenders and allow the likes of mata,deepay,rooney to score the goals. Basic idea is to create space for other goal scorers

    2. Larry Legend
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      I think he's deadly serious unfortunately. Most likely he plays behind Rooney, which despite his absence of pace, passing ability and general clumsiness, is his best position. Januzaj probably out.

  14. Chenku╰☆╮

    Defoe bandwagon? Just scored a hat-trick last night!!

    Thoughts on Gradel vs Ritchie?
    Why is the FFS favoring Ritichie?

  17. Larry Legend
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    I've seen some really insightful responses on here this morning so I'm gonna put my own WC dilemma out there. Current squad with 0 FT / 0.4ITB:

    Schmeichel Schwarzer
    Mert Shaw Francis Huth Coates
    Haz Ozil Memphis Januzaj Westwood
    Aguero Kane Wilson

    I can't get Mahrez because of my stupid Leicester triple at the back. I also have no backup keeper, Coates, and I'm missing the Gomez / City midfield bandwagon. BUT I'm write happy with the core, even if the likes of Memphis and Hazy aren't currently in vogue.

    Would you WC next week? :-/

    Need to play two of the following this week. Thanks in advance! Already have Gomis up front so worried about too much Swansea attack vs the Utd defence.

    a) Darmian
    b) Shelvey
    c) Westwood
    d) Richards

    1. The Mighty Whites
      • 10 Years

    Shaw or Darmian?

  21. JaydenLFC87
    • 12 Years

    All being well moves for GW5 will be

    Gomis > Wilson

    Payet > Pedro

    Williams > Francis

    -4

    Good Moves???

    Would leave me with the below team

    Butland
    Kompany/Gomez/Francis
    Silva/Pedro/Sanchez/Mahrez
    Aguero/Benteke/Wilson

    Mccarthy/Westwood/Richards/Targett

  22. raymonds
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    A) Lukaku to Wilson or Benteke -4
    B) Gomis to Wilson or Benteke -4
    C) Lukaku and Gomis to Wilson and Benteke -8
    D) Do not attempt those moves! Are you crazy?

    1. JaydenLFC87

      D, see what happens this weekend

  23. Jepps
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Myhill (Guzan)
    Gomez, Stones, Kolarov (Naughton, Francis)
    Pedro, Mahrez, Yaya, Sanchez (Anya)
    Wilson, Agüero, Gomis

    WC played and this is what I've come up with at the moment.

    Feedback appreciated!

    Mata's stats are clearly better than depays here. So why am I very reluctant to switch depay out for him? Am I just caught up in the hype!?

    Anyone else switching depay for mata?

  25. Tim Sherwood

    any chance hazard drops again before this wknd? and any chance McCarthy keeps the palace keeper job once Speroni returns? cheers
