After assessing the Defenders and Midfielders’ form over the last four Gameweeks, our next members’ article now casts an eye over the frontmen. With Sergio Aguero owners likely to need a new replacement as a result of his hamstring injury, we delve into the data to highlight a number of in-form protagonists.
Any news on the Janmaat injury?
Going to be fit for Sunday?
He got the 'injury' during a game he completed 90 mins just before internationals. Nuff said
When do the clocks go back?
30th
sorry 25th
Don't the clocks go back 30yrs?
Halloween
25th actually
Sunday 25 October 2025.
2015* Excuse my fat forefinger.
Going forwards ten years is bit excessive? No?
If you want to talk excessive, seek out the Mayans.
When they break down.
End of the month Parm, nearest Saturday-Sunday night.

Right, thanks all.
Worst trades ever this GW. 🙁 Took a -8 after last GW without even considering potential injuries.
Now I am left with Kun, Kolarov and Westwood.
Shizer.
Like it how you qualify "the worst trades ever" to this GW 🙂
Totally burned myself 🙂 Think I might just leave Kun on the bench this GW. Good idea?
Do you have playing XI? Don't worry about what you've done already. It's sunk cost.
Yes I do. Cedric(Lei) and Westwood(che) would come in if Kun and Kola are missing.
I'd take another -4 for Kun then (instead of Westwood), and get a forward who has the potential for a big week (Costa, Sturridge, Kane, etc.).
This
Wow! A -12!!
Goodnight
🙂Night A.S.
Night 🙂
Barkley a better prospect than Lukaku from GW11?
Nah.
Yeep for me.
Only if you prefer your goals spectacular and sporadic over trolltastic and plentiful
🙂
Maybe the double up could work.
Both looking in goalscoring form.Depends which position you can fit an Everton player in I think. Either decent enough, I'm not sure you would want both.
Agree not doubling up. Will monitor next two weeks. May come down to Martial + Barkley vs. Lukaku + Mata.
Think I prefer the latter.
no but better than mahrez from then on
I can see Sunderland and Newcastle both picking up a couple of wins in their next 6. I don't see any for Villa however, is this the end of Dim Tim?
Tim will just find another premier league victim to infect with his terrible managing
Nobody spot the Triggerlips curve ball on the last page? 😉
Pellé?
Is he buying Mbemba?
He wanted a big bony inside him
That's not a curve ball, that's a very good pick.
Between him & Pelle in my WC team at least.He doesn't think so otherwise he wouldn't have posted it
saw it.. he will be getting pelle and de bruyne
is cabeye on penalties?
Tab above says yes.
he scored one last game, i would say yes.
cheers fellas
pelle likely to rise??
He might.
He's close.
doesn't look like it
Does it really matter? he may also get injured tomorrow, what is .1m when you are selling Aguero?
It's the .1 you'll be short of in January for that must have transfer.
Except you will lose plus more when he gets crocked tomorrow. You pay your money and you takes your chance.
And another -4
The only reason to rush the Pelle transfer through tonight is if you're planning to use the extra cash for another transfer and have exact money. If you can afford it then wait.
This is the FPL equivalent of atheism vs creationism.
Yeah and God created atheism. 😀
Atheists don't agree 😛
January? Second WC isn't restricted to January remember
Got .2 left after doing Sergio -> Pellé and Morrison - > KDB and I wanna wait until after south american games to make the transfer. Would be a bitch if they both rose .3 in the next 3 days. Pelle is currently on 93.7 and KDB 83.7 on fplstatistics.com. Don't really know how to read them though
Suspect there will be a fair few WC transfers in that won't count
I think I'm still going to be in utter awe of Jurgen Klopp on my deathbed...
Morning all,
Any latest news on Kolarov?
Aguero, Silva, Kolarov in my books for my sins.
Gonna suggest that WR may be giving the best advice tonight....Hold on the Pelle transfer for one day.
I personally don't mind if they get him tonight 😉
He's a great pick though...still cheap as chips even at 0.1 more.
I'm making that move
no chance I'm doing it tonight though
That Sterling to Payet move I made on Sunday is already burning, not putting my hand back in the oven
testing my patience.
i'm going to hold off on pulling the trigger too.That 0.1will be a distant memory next week....
No, it won't. It will be in my SV. 😉
Not if he doesn't go up....and if he gets injured then you'll be losing SV...
Wild Rover and good advice?
I think you're getting confused Wakey 😛This
No I'm not. WR plays this game well.
Sturridge or pelle for kun?
Most seem to have Pelle, and the question becomes Sturridge, Kane or Lukaku. If you don't have Pelle, I think he is the safest choice given how Southampton have played of late, and their upcoming favorable schedule.
Who would you prefer long term?
A) Bertrand
B) Bellerin
C) MonrealB)ellerin
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it, I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
I went to my first rugby league game on Saturday.
Quite enjoyed myself!The big one? It was awesome as usual
Yeah it was good. Great atmosphere and a really close game. I was sat in the Wigan end though...
Don't get 73k every week but very rarely get a dud in big games. Love it
Hello future foe 😀
Union?
I just came back in and I see I now have 7 suspended, loaned or injured!!
Baker, Dier, Kolarov, Silva, Ayew, Silva, Aguero. What to do?
A.WildCard Aguero > KDB + total clean up
B. Aguero + silva +Baker + Ayew > Lukaku + sanchez +KDB+ dawson (-12)
C. Aguero + silva +Baker > Lukaku +KDB+ dawson (-8)
D. Hold on to my stones and wait till friday for injury confirmations
What a shambles!Well having 2 silvas no wonder you got injury problems
doh!!...S Taylor
I expect Ayew to be fit. Wait for news on Kolarov.
C looks solid
Right, in a draft league and planning to hold Aguero.
What to do here?? 2.9 in the bank - thinking Westwood -> Cabaye. Any better idea?
Begovic
Kolarov* / Naughton* / Evans*
Mata / Sanchez / Mahrez / Mane
Pelle / Ighalo
4.0; Westwood / Prodl / Aguero*And Richards
What is are the list of attacking full backs that you would consider on a WC???
Bellerin
Monreal
Coleman
Cedric
Bertrand
Walker
Bavies
Naughton (if fit)
NyomMine. Janmaat Cresswell Moreno Kolarov
You have a WC, we don't.. and you want us to pick your team? Why full backs?
people love attacking full backs in their FPL teams
My current wc defence has at least 4 full backs and probably BAP whore Williams to go with themI'm backing VvD
Issue I have with VVD is I see Cedric at 5.0 as rotatable, I don't see VVD at 5.5 the same way
Plus I've had Cedric from the off, I'm quite attached to the fella, if I was to sell it would be for BertyVvD also takes direct free kicks... and sounds like VdV
He had them at Celtic so we know he can take them
but at Saints he's competing with Tadic and JWPI like VVD it's just the rotation issue, my plan is Bellerin and an Everton defender as my 2 play every week guys
Janmaat, Bellerin, Monreal, Bertrand, Cedric, Coleman.
How do you like your footy ?....Janmaat and Kolarov are the best to watch but they have a downside.
Safest option is a CPL, SOTON or Arsenal FB.and potentially Coleman in a couple of weeks
Aye...I like good attacking full backs.
If he's fit Janmaat will be in this defence
Elliot
Mbemba, Colo, Williamson, Janmaat
I'll pass. Elliot and Williamson are dreadfulAye...shockingly...I still like him though. He'll be playing somewhere else by January.
Moreno/Clyne?
Begovic
Kolarov, Dawson, Williams
Hazard, Ozil, Payet, Mahrez
Aguero, Pelle, Diouf
McCarthy, Ritchie, Richards, Targett
A) Aguero + Ritchie -> Lukaku + De Bruyne
B) Aguero + Diouf -> Costa + Lukaku/Bony
C) Other
A for me
A
Thanks guys. That's what I was thinking.

England being undefeated doesn't really mean much 🙁when it matters we will lose
Rodgers for England?
The other big nations are all beatable.
Butland (Ruddy)
Kolarov, Azpi, Cedric (Francis, Huth)
KDB, Özil, Mahrez, Payet (Wanyama)
Agüero, Martial, Vardy
1FT, 0.6 ITB
Any Ideas?Aguero to Pelle and you're good to go. Could upgrade Ozil to Sanchez but unsure if it's worth a hit.
Exactly the moves I was thinking. But dunno if it's worth the hit.
Maybe just do the Pelle transfer and you can get Sanchez for free next week.
This
Take Kun out.
😀
stekelen
kolorov nyom janmaat
payet KDB Mane Mahrez
Aguero Lukaku Pelle
Darmian Sinclair Oxford
A) aguero to sturridge
B) aguero to Costa
C) Aguero to Vardy and next gw mahrez to Sanchez
C but do it now for a hit
I like C
Best Striker to get for this GW if you Have Pelle & Vardy ?
Just for this GW? Maybe Costa. I like Lukaku long term.
Agreed ... GW11 onwards Everton[s fixtures are immense. Just hope he gets busy!
Costa or Lukaku.
Gestede
😯
The Ozil eyes just aren't the same anymore 🙁
😉
Costa I reckon. Lukaku for GW11
If it fitted with my budget/Sanchez transfer I would go for Lukaku
Hennessey (Butland)
Kolarov - Ben Davies - Francis (Huth - Pudil*)
KdB - Hazard - Payet - Mahrez - Sinclair
Aguero* - Wilson* - Ighalo(ars)
Options:
1) Wildcard
2) 8 point hit: Aguero, Wilson, Sinclair -> Pelle, Bony, Sanchez and bench Mahrez/Ighalo
3) something else
Wilson to Pelle already done on Saturday.
Leaning towards B myself and wildcarding in GW11/12/13 as there are too many question marks re Chelsea, Mahrez, clean sheets and cheap defenders at the moment. Fixtures for many teams take a turn soon too. Any opinions?2 and bench Ighalo. I prefer Lukaku to Bony but if you're planning to WC soon then the Bony punt could work great.
Yep, that's exactly the thinking. I think I'd get Lukaku instead of Bony if more injuries happen and I decide to wildcard. Cheers.
Wildcard.

Good evening. I am far to busy to be on here.
Let's go through your team line at a time then Cheesoid, solve all the big issues.
Aaarrgghh.
Anyway what big issues? 😉
Who is your ideal 7 attackers right now?
What's yours?
Sanchez KdB Payet Mane Walcott
Pelle Vardy (Ayoze)Pretty much this ... with Mane / Mahrez rotating
Just watching this Fergie documentary
Giggs is talking about why he never had a go at Cantona
oh Eric's not played well, oh Eric's missed a penalty
lol @ Cantona missing a pen, I think he missed one in his entire United career v Blackburn in the Charity Shieldmissed one against leeds... scored that one against blackburn in charity shield
aye that's the one
I remember
scored 16 of 17 penalties
sent keeper wrong way 16 out of 17 (he also sent the keeper the wrong way for the one he missed)yep incredible really...
missed one in a pre season friendly against rangers too tried a chip and put it over not that that mattershere's a piece of trivia
who is the only keeper the go the right way?now thats a good question gimme a minute to think
just finished watching them back
I was half right, he did miss one v Blackburn, Flowers saved it but it was league match in 1997i only rem the leeds one as it was utterly pathetic rolled it wide keeper went wrong way as per usual.. who was the keeper that went right way?
excluding Tim Flowers who saved it (another trivia question to store up) it was Ludek Miklosko
it's like the other question, who is the only keeper to saved a Matt Le Tisser pen (scored 43 of 44)mark crossley
The old Dell is now a housing estate, and there is a road called Crossley Place named after Mark Crossley for that reason
now i did not know that.. brilliant
wow, what a brilliant bit of knowledge that is
it came to me just in time lol
ha
yes Mark Crossley is the answer for the Le Tiss one
ludek miklosko?
93/94 iirc lee sharpe scored a bullet header in same game
2 mins 13
wow, better memory than me
But I was 10 at the time, my interest in football had really only just startedi was about the same age then and just as united mad as i am now lol
lee sharpe was my first footballing heroI remember the 94 final, but for mew it truly got started the following season. I actually live about a 5-10 minute walk from the Cliff. I remember going down there at the end of the school holidays to watch training.
still got an old autograph book somewhereremember the 94 final like yesterday cantonas 2 penalties into the same corner within the space of a few mins
the 1990 cup final was the first united match i remember 3-3 against crystal palace and after the 90 world cup that summer was hooked..
that must of been an amazing experience as a kid getting to see ur heroes train mateIncredible
On wildcard which one is Better Pick
Cabaye - Good fixtures and on Penalties
Barkley - In form and fixtures turning good
Payet - Form but no good Fixtures
?GW10 captaincy looking like a headache.
sanchez
This.
Easy.Don't own him 🙁
Get him and captain him.
Might have to do that. It's either that or trusting Hazard with the armband.
One at a time
Vardy
Don't own him either 🙁
Pelle ... Sanchez ... Mahrez
Captain for the weekend please. Choice between...
Payet
Eriksen
Depay
Sakho
Lukaku
I've had Payet up til now with great success but not sure if it's time to switch to Eriksen?Out of that lot I'd go with Payet. Don't really like any of those options tbh.
A or E
Payet and maybe Eriksen base on form. Not much to choose from though.
I think E could be good
