Our first members article of the week delves into the Gameweek 13 data this evening. We assess the downturn in form of a trio of premium midfielders, as Alexis Sanchez, Kevin De Bruyne and Eden Hazard’s displays arrive under our radar. Harry Kane and Roberto Firmino’s weekend showings are also analysed, whilst we take a look at Bournemouth’s midfield improvement since Eddie Howe switched tactics in Gameweek 11.
Good morning 🙂
Good afternoon in here. You deserve a mr. Congeniality awards for top of the page greetings 🙂
sanchez to countinho..
yay or nayno for me
No
GW1 1.9M
Now 240,??? k
Is aiming for a top 10k finish unrealistic?
I am oddly enjoying this this season. A bit random with plenty going on!5k, easy
you know the drill....Hoping the 'stupid' boost card things have skewed the rankings a bit.
'stupid' can be any word you like but i cant typeDon't you mean 4k?
lol😀
why i once thought we where friends i don't know...
lol
I'm 300k and I'm still quite hopeful
Butland (Ruddy)
Cedric Azpi Kolarov (Nyom, Huth)
Ozil, Sanchez, KDB, Mahrez (Wanyama)
Pelle, Vardy, Lukaku
2FT, 0.8 ITB.
Pelle, KDB -> Aguero, Lanzini
Then Lukaku -> Kane next week.
G2G?Like the first bit, yes.
Just me but think Luk to Kane is sideways, predicting similar returns over the mid term. Just my thoughts though, know others disagreeYeah I'm a bit hesitant on L -> K, Lukaku has great fixtures and I don't really want to miss out, but so does Kane.
Will do the first bit.Earlier chat on the
Lukaku Kane Aguero
front line. Yes, prob the strongest, but ruins the rest of the team. We need the Vardy/ Ighalo types for their value in points to price.
We cant have them all! For me its Aguero Vardy and one of Kane/ Lukaku and i have no idea if im on the right one!
morning dzzz, how we doing...still on a shocking run 🙁 (ranked over 1mil..never before sigh). have 2FT
hennessey --- begovic
janmaat moreno souare --- cedric simpson
mahrez sanchez kdb yaya -- mane
pelle vardy lukaku
A: pelle + kdb >> kun + cheapie mid
B: pelle + kdb + janmaat >> kun + cheapie mid + rojo (-4)
C: pelle + kdb >> kane + firmino
Anything else?why do you own yaya?
😕lol..got him for kun when he got injured for those jammy pens..only got one 🙁
that's ages ago. you need ozil.
..and a 5th milf that can rot on the pine
C ahead of A. But i would keep KDB for one more week.
A all the way for me
Captaincy poll
A) Aguero
B) Sanchez
C) Lukakuc
Strongly considering San(c)hez now.
1st Sanchez
2nd Lukaku
3rd Aguero
In this order and I own all 3.Why is Kun third?
Fixtures less favourable, form not as great as the other two (even if he scored a goal).
I think the Southampton defence ain't that great. Did you see the Stoke game? SOU could have conceded 5.
Happy to have Kun right now just feel Arsenal and Everton have better fixtures which more goals will be scored.
Chelsea nicely picking form up. KDB -> Haz looking more and more likely this week. BOU at home could be too good to turn down.
Not for me
Just want to thank Butland for being the best keeper in the world.
I've never even switched once and he's delivered greatly as a 4.5.Good to not have that problem eh. He performs for me every time i put him on the bench. And gives me a rank boost at the end of every GW.
McCarthy complemets him really well 😉Agree. He will stay there all season for me unless injured
Wish I've gone with Rutland instead of Ruddy-Rudd to start the season
That's what I went with 😉
Rutland-Ruddy-Rudd
where can i complain about the fact that my gravatar gets smaller and smaller while a discussion on a thread gets longer?
head must roll.Lingard or lanzini?
On wildcard or is their another 5th mid?That boy from Spurs
im in the bargain bin with 4.3 to spend- Stanislas.
If hes a pure 5th mid Albrighton would be my choiceMorrison (WBA) @4.8 for the Xmas fixtures
Or king?
Gosling
Or this
Their fixtures poor
Jeez thats more options than i wanted
Should've accepted my buy-low offer 😉
Bench Wardinho (NEW) or Moreno (SWA)?
Ward
You have a MUCH better rank than me so I agree with you. Cheers!
I think Sanchez (C) is the move of the week
Butland (C)
Youre probably right 😛
In all seriousness it's hard to ignore Lukaku's when he's in form at home to Bournemouth. So many captaincy options this week. I've half a mind to do Kane (C). Or Firmino. Jeez. Love this season.
Hes away to bou but I see your point.
for me its a move to catch my ML leadersI was set on Kun but i am considering Sanchez now. All depends on his minutes today and the press conference on Friday.
minutes today?
Yeah ML priorities!
Any price change experts about? On the phone and find those sites hard to navigate
Want to do
Pelle to Aguero
Mata to Stanislas
ok to wait until next deadline? ThanksKun +50%
Stanislas +5.4%
Should be fine for Friday transferUnlucky for us to lose against Wales.
Yep, another Kane goal or assist would of done them! Was surprised not to see any Spurs players and only ward after Saturday's games.
Next fixture also looks tough.. Croatia got 345pts 4 X Ayew
How's your team for coming GW have you made your transfer yet?My team is solid 😛 Don;t think I'm making any move with my 1 FT.
#KuncanwaitGood to here... Email team once your happy. must win already! We will win our next game as I've seen most of our teams, all look solid and good on paper.
Thank you
Degea
Galloway toby sagna
Ozil mahrez kdb delfelou
Aguero vardy kane
Bench- Loris Lucas Cameron target
Bank-0.7m... 1FT
Guys suggest
A.Kane to lukaku
B.delfelou to Barkley
C. KDB to Sanchez/eriksen
D.improve my defence by taking wolly or morenoSave ft
This kane - vardy situation is killing me. Cant dump vardy, no way
Especially when we got him under 6.5M
Yup. I thinkin to hold on him until wc instead of kane. Other forwards are kun and lukaku
I dumped Vardy for Lukaku.
Vardy is only getting approx 6-7 points per game. Lukaku/Kane gets a lot more. Plus fixture for Vardy now very tough. Time to hop off the bandwagon.I think leicester will continue to score
Yep they will. But Vardy less consistent. Also. It's a pretty easy downgrade from Lukaku to Vardy when Everton's fixtures tightens up again
After the CL league game I heard Bellerin may of been injured, any news on this? Thanks
Not in tweets, not there.
I had wondered this. Not sure why he went off early
G2G?
Wollscheid. Bellerin. Moreno.
Mahrez. Sanchez. KDB. Ozil.
Lukaku. Ighalo. Kane.
McCarthy. Kolarov. Ayew. Prodl.
Bench order correct? Thanks allLooks good. Benching Ayew and Kolarov might bite but can't help everything.
Captain?Sanchez I'm thinking.
Thanks for your reply
Different crowd on so I want to get more opinions.
Would these be good transfers for after the weekend? Would be a -8. Providing Aguero hits form and isn't injured
Cech > Hennessey
KDB > 6.7 (Lanzini, Deulofeu, Bolasie)
Vardy > Kun
This would give me
Gomes / Hennessey
Smalling / Ward / Rose / Moreno / Dawson
Sanchez / Ozil / Mahrez / 6.7 / Wanyama
Kane / Kun / Lukaku
Also an option is KDB > Alli and Vardy > KunNope.. not good for -8..
Thanks
I'd go for it if you desperately want Kun. But I'd hold yet for a few weeks.
Don't desperately want him no. Just worried about getting priced out
...you again... 😕
Following up a -20 with a -8...the dude that bought and sold VvD last week.
🙄I want opinions. Nothing wrong with that right? 😉
And as mentioned the VvD was a terrible drunken mistake...
Nope not for 8pts Kun v Stoke will be a tough fixture too. Vardy has Swans
Ok thanks. Didn't think it was, but like others opinions.
Such bad moves.
Ok thanks. This is why I asked.
Its leaving you midfield a tad too weak
It's going to do that no matter what.
Ugh maybe just go without him until Jan.
Help Me !!!
------------Butland--------------
Moreno, Kolarov, Alderwereild
Ayew, KDB, Sanchez, Mahrez
----Vardy, Aguero, Lukaku---
FT used Pelle -> Aguero
Shall i use (-4) for Ayew-> barkley ???
thanks.. !!! 🙂No. Play Ayew.
Ozil is better
ahh dint Ayew score 10+ pts in last GW?? Removing him forget that too for a hit is beyond me!
A) dier (CHE)
B) rojo (leic)A

My Team for the weekend
Hennessey
Souare Rojo Bellerin
Ozil Sanchez Mahrez Mane
Aguero Vardy Lukaku
Butland Simpson Surman Bertrand
0FT 0.8mn ITB
1) Is GK choice correct of having double CPL defence vs NewC??
2) Is bench order right??Sanchez (c) more likely
I'd play butland, sunderland struggling to score as well as newcastle
Last week I benched Butland and he gave CS...But arent Sunderland showing upward form and Stoke CS run will surely end right??
Probably, Fat Sam might be more adventurous against Stoke. But then again you could argue that after newcastle play horribly the next game they play well
Don't double up on Palace. I'd play butland.
Bench order seems fine.Thnks Later 😉
Play Butland. Newcastle have a better chance of scoring than Sunderland. Think I'd put the sub order as:
Henn - Surman - Bertrand - Simpson
Mane + KdB -> Couthino + Ozil
Thumbs up or too sideways?That is in no way sideways
Too sideways.
Mane > Coutinho though if you can do that.yes, too sideways. I'm hoping mane will start doing ok, he likes playing hard away matches and especially with Pelle up front there will be more need of him to go up front
Ok, that made me even more unsure... Planning to go without Kun the next couple of weeks, so need sure point-makers in the midfield. KdB & Mane are only trolling me for the moment.
Yeah, I know how you feel. All that money in midfield and they aren't doing anything. You get rid if you want but I think I'm keeping
Hey lads. Was planning on getting Kun in this week but don't think I can drop anyone for him. Should I just sort my defence out?
Butland
Bellerin Evans Rojo
Marhez Sanchez KDB Ozil
Vardy Lukaku Kane
McCarthy Richards Huth Deadwood 2.3ITB 1FT
A) Downgrade KDB/Sanchez and Vardy to Kun -4
B) Richards or Huth out
C) SaveAnyone with insights on yesterday's games?
Particularly looking at Costa, Haz, Ozil, Sanchez, BellerinOzil and Sanchez were immense
Bellerin also coupled a few great crosses
Haz and Costa not ivolved in the 4 goals tell the storyThis ^
I deduced all this by reading the sky commentary for both teams during mornings nature call :p
Lol
does it though? Barkley wasnt involved in any of the goals when Everton put 6 past Sunderland
Some anomalies stats reject but then in that way you cant make any decision altogether...Stats give you the most LIKELY possibility
Don't no if it's of any help, but apparently Sanchez had a ridiculous amount of touches in the box.
Ye
That's nice to hear, especially with Giroud playing in that game
chelsea played vs 10 men for 50 min.
"For all their patient build-up Chelsea fell short in final third" - BBC"Once again, a number of Chelsea's big players failed to impress.
Eden Hazard struggled to stamp his authority on the game, while Costa was unable trouble home keeper Predrag Rajkovic.
Mourinho certainly appeared unhappy with Costa's first-half performance, with the two having an exchange of words as they made their way to the tunnel at the break while Loic Remy was sent out to warm up"
-BBCInteresting. Thanks.
I thought hazard was on his way back, a few more weeks then
Liverpool vs Swansea
Score Predictions?1-1
Liverpool suffer after Europa excursionscue the CPL result
2-0
Apparently Klopp struggles against lower table teams who sit back because pressing doesn't work that well. So yeah, 1-0 imo
If pressing doesnt help he can always fondle
I haven't swansea sit back yet
3 - 0
Any Guns Up for SANCHEZ (C)?!
I'd do it if I owned him.
You dont have him?!
Who did you remove for him??I haven't had him since GW4. His blank after blank annoyed me.
Depends on how many minutes Kun is getting this week.
You mean against Juve right??
But sad news is Bony is back on weekend...This means Aguero will start vs Juve and be benched vs Soton...I hope he doesnt start today...Likewise. Pellegrini pretty transparent in her press conferences too. Time will tell.
I'm considering him heavily
Im wanting to wildcard. Ozil, Coutinho and Aguero to come in if I do ? Will wait till tomorrow incase something happens
Cech
Sagna, Clyne, VvD
Mahrez, Sanchez, KDB, Deulofeu
Vardy, Martial, LukakuWho goes out? i don't see the need to WC. 2 of the 3 above can come in through one hit.
Butland
Koscielny - Moreno - Simpson
Mahrez - Sanchez - Ozil - Coutinho
Lukaku - Aguero - VardyIsn't your wc one hit away?
I want to (C) Sanchez this week, but after I (C) him last week I'm not sure I can trust him.
see below...
insane skills
Right in the heart of their defence yummy.. 🙂
You're sticking around here permanently now? Its not too bad in the DZ eh
no, just when the "old guard" are around. it's a lot better recently...if you know what I mean...not to mention names.
I know what you're saying. Good to see you more often. Gives me much needed sanity. And quite a few of the new guard are good.
So I'm going to play 1 of Ayew or Moreno. Who would you play? (As they face each other)
A) Ayew
B) MorenoGood question this
B
