We delve into the members’ data this evening and assess the main performers from the weekend’s round of fixtures. Palace’s two-goal hero, Chelsea’s ever-improving defence, Watford’s front two and Sunderland’s raiding Dutchman all make the cut in light of their Gameweek 14 performances.
Alderweireld, Dier or Moreno?
❓
To purchase
Toby
Alder
Alde imo. Still don't trust Pool to deliver many CS and Alde has shown he can deliver attacking returns and baps so can match Moreno there.
thanks, my williams or rojo replacement for next GW is sorted
too awesome to be bottomed! rp
https://www.facebook.com/www.JOE.co.uk/videos/581741805323223/I'm trying to figure out what this "JOE.co.uk" Facebook page used to be. It just randomly appeared that I was following it one day.
you shouldn't drunk Facebook I think! 😛
I think you may be right
You're not wrong there......absolute rolled gold!!!
LOUIS VAN GAAL'S ARMY
yo wtf
?
that was hilarious
ah haha
Pretty surprised to see that Newcastle have 2 CS in last 4.
8 conceded in last 2 mind.
They've recalled Mike Williamson from his loan so that has to be good news!Remember that one of those was Bournemouth who should have had 10 goals. Even then there defense looked terrible.
I do remember. I watched that game and I totally agree. I was verging on tears at the injustice! Just an anomaly that caught my eye.
2 CS followed by 8A in next 2
@Sinik
I love this one by them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sh36B_IroZshahah
lol im loving these
Capitan pick
1. Ozil
2. Aguero
3 Kane1
Thanks
2
Kane
Top 3 scoring teams from 14 games:
Man City (30)
Leicester (29)
Everton (27) - impressive considering their hard startand United only on 20 surprisingly despite how boring and unimaginative we've been! ❓
To be fair you guys have been the last few games...but I don't blame LvG. He's grinding out results until January. Then he'll sign a top attacker.
he should have done it this summer, or at least held onto the likes of Chicharito
Guys, as a massive fan of what Ozil has done lately and a longish-term owner I have serious doubts about his likely output this weekend.
With all the injuries Arsenal have, it is surely a case of 'stop Ozil, stop Arsenal'.
Big Sam will just have Cattermole et al kick lumps out of him.
I'm picking him, but my hopes and expectations are low.Yeah, but the question is can they stop Ozil, to which the answer is no 🙂
Anybody (perhaps except Messi) can be stopped if the focus to stop 1 player.
Good point.
A solid reason not to Captain I think.I wouldn't captain Ozil this week tbf
Thanks mate. I've definitely excluded him from the armband conundrum.
That is the obvious question yes! With Big Sam's dedication to stout defensiveness and that singular focus (my God, what a miss Alexis is) I suspect they can limit his influence significantly, without extinguishing it
That sounds like Arsenal is a one man team.
I've even gone so far as to make my vice off him and put it on Kane.
Makes good sense to me. A CS has been a while coming for WBA and they have shipped some big numbers at home. Would rate Kane's chances of a good output much higher than Ozil's
all fairly moot though as I can't see Hazard (c) not starting
Yeah, true. Then again, there's always that chance a player pulls up in the warm up. Picking a proper VC isn't a bad habit to get into
definitely agree which is why I've done it 😉
The only way to stop Ozil is to kick him when he's off the ball. Red card incoming?
2 big decisions this week.
Which would you choose?
1. Start Schmeichel or Butland
2. Choose a captain from- Hazard, Ozil, Kane, Lukaku, KDB, Vardy
Schmeichel/Hazard ATM..schmeichel
lukaku
Any bench suggestions would be appreciated, currently have
Gomes (Elliot)
Moreno, Rose, PVA (Simpson, Rojo)
KDB, Ritchie, Coutinho (C), Barkley (Alli)
Lukaku, Kane (VC), AgueroSurely you've got to start Alli over Ritchie?
3 Tottenham players? That's one thing I'm contemplating but I also feel Ritchie is due
I agree it's a difficult choice, but I just can't imagine benching Alli after the form he's been in
I agree, Alli needs to start over Ritchie.
New Star Wars trailer!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUW7EDJmWUAG2G? Any hits needed? 0 FT
Schmeicel
Cedric Kolarov Rojo
Hazard Mahrez Yaya Mane
Lukaku Vardy Kane
Subs: Butland Lingard Francis Saylor*No hits needed
Morning. Was all set on Sanchez to Hazard BUT had a realization (B)-
A. Sanchez to Hazard. (loose plan of him for 4 weeks and possibly back to Sanchez)
B. Sanchez to Coutinio and next week Vardy to Kane
Getting rid of Vardy?Hmmmm
Butland/McCarthy
Bertrand/ Kolorov/Targett/Richards/Moreno
Sanchez/Ozil/Mahrez/ Stanislas/KDB
Aguero/Vardy/ Lukaku
1FT 0.1 ITB
Any thoughts welcomeI got rid of vardy last week ( for lukaku).
Not sure if i made the right decision yet but its nerve racking being up against such high ownership and formI honestly dont know! I may just go Hazard and bottle the descion
B imo
Thanks, i feel there may be an even ish split on this!
Probably B.
Cheers mate
If it was for this week, I would have gone with A but over 4 weeks, I think Coutinho(if fit) and Kane will be better than Hazard and Vardy.
Thanks. I do feel B is right, just shifting Vardy!
Let's hear some early captain thoughts 🙂
Kane for meCoutinho if fit
Good pick
Coutinho or Vardy
Still think Vardy can deliver?
Against Swansea yes
He's also one goal short of the all time top flight record so I doubt he's lost motivation 🙂
Fair enough. Good luck Jape 🙂
Thanks 🙂 You too
Vardy(c) hmmm... Will be a good Thailand v Singapore match up this weekend.
It certainly will be 😉
Mane
Interesting,
I saw Doosra mention it earlier… I think I'm just glad I own him; nevertheless, I wish you the best of luck.Hoping he will have fond memories of his hat trick in the 6-1 win earlier this year
Yep. He didn't look to bad against City as well tbf
Kane or mahrez/vardy
Are you looking to keep both of the Leicester boys throughout Christmas?
Haz if i bring him in, Lukaku if not
Lukaku? MNF? No?
For me personally the time of the fixture has little influence with my decision.
+ I've got Barkley and Lukaku in that game so...Good to have Everton double up. But MNF is just a bonus to the current form he's in.
It's really not an obvious decision between Kaku and Kane for me really tbh.
But it's half gut/half stats to pick Kane
kane for me too unless i change to lukaku
Either Ozil or Lukaku for me. Have Barkley as well, but fear Sunderland defence could be hard to break.
Just did Sanchez ➡ Hazard, I know he's not in form but there were signs of improvment against Spurs and he could've easily had a goal if not for that brilliant save from Lloris. BOU is too good to ignore, especially when Bournemouth could be fielding their 3rd choice keeper.
See above! Im am torn abit, your logic is sound. hes a good choice
Thanks Sab, I would go for it if I were you, but, in saying that if you're set on getting Kane in GW 16 for NEW then I would probably get Coutinho if he gets through the cup game unscathed.
I will probably do that too, despite having Willian and NOT having Ozil. That is with my FT.
I think Ozil's output will decrease with Sanchez out, doubling up is debatable but is definitely an option.
My D
Myhill Butland
Kolarov Bellerin Azpi Souare
1 FT. 3.ITB
A) Myhill -> DDG
B) Other (suggest)
C) SaveSave
Right, ok. I think I've decided:
Scenario 1 - If Fonte is out 3+ weeks then…
Use my FT on Fonte - Toby
Scenario 2 - If Fonte is out 1-2 weeks then…
Use my FT on Francis - Rose
Scenario 3 - If Fonte is fit and Firmino didn't get a rest then…
Use my FT on Sanchez - Silva. Benching Firmino and Moreno being my only Liverpool Cover.
Scenario 4 - If Fonte is fit and Firmino DID get a rest then…
Save FT
No more thinking for FPL required this week 🙂 Good night allThis is going to be my 11 after making a strange transfer.
Butland
Cedric, Smalling, Bellerin, Moreno
Hazard (vc), Willian, Barkley
AGUERO, Vardy, Lukaku (c)
Subs: Mc, Ayew, Mahrez, Richards
Bench?? Captain?If Chelsea and Everton don't perform, you're fecked.
I agree. But I'm going to sell Willian after BOU. Perhaps, Willian + Ayew > Ozil + cheapie
Would start Mahrez over Cedric
Thanks
Agree wit this
Not loving 2 Chelsea mids. Like the captain.
Thanks. I haven't got Hazard yet. Want him and Willian for the BOU game. If The latter doesn't do well, I will downgrade him but I'm pretty confident that the two will score points this week.
@Jigger - refferring to your comment on the FIFFSA article
Who knows if all these RMT's are just mind games or not? 😉Was just stirring up the pot ;). Maybe got Nishida to throw a bib at you 🙂
Haha I know. 😛
No bib throwing in Team Singapore camp.We should get together one of these weekends and watch a game at Robertson Quay
Happy to do that.
Cool. Let's connect closer to Saturday. No Sunday evening football this weekend. We can try this Saturday or then next weekend, if it works for you.
Can't do this Saturday as i'm meeting a friend that's visiting SG. Next Sunday I can do?
8189 3581 🙂Cool. Let's target next Sunday.
Hello all. How was Silva last night? Did he get any assists? Thinking of getting him in. Sold KDB last week (don't even ask)
He got MotM, no assists.
How in the world did he get Motm when KDB has 2 goals and an assist?
Which would you choose this GW?
1. Start Schmeichel or Butland
2. Choose a captain from- Hazard, Kane, Lukaku,Schmeichel and Hazard
Schm and Haz
Schmeichel and Lukaku/Hazard.
Dont want to spam but 10 mins left before some boring meeting.If time a quick A/B higher up the page is much appreciated DZ
A
Thanks
A
Cheers
Thanks for replies here and up higher on the page. It seems to have no clear favourite which is fine, confirms to me it is a close one. Its time for me to make the choice myself. Thanks again
Bench two:
Janmaat (LIV)
Kolarov (stk)
Aldeweireld (wba)
Ivanovic (BOU)
Smalling (WHU)Janmaat & Alderweireld.
Hardly see you recently. I was told last week you know everything regarding FFScout when I posted a question to ask whether anyone knows how to join the 2 dead zone leagues run by our members. Do you know who are the owners for these 2 leagues?
Classic Dead Zone
Official DeadZone LeagueI think they're run by Test Eagles and Messimerized (who doesn't post (much) anymore).
Ok, do you know any of the league codes and any entry criteria do join these leagues?
The only criteria is you have to be someone who posts in the deadzone, so if you look out for them I'm sure they'll let you in. I don't know the codes myself sorry.
Cheers, it helps.
Janmaat and Toby
I'd be tempted to play 4, but oh well.
Janmaat and Toby
prob the hardest decision I will have to make in a while.
mahrez mane kdb ozil deolefeu
kane vardy Kaku
who do I bench.. soooo hard after deolefeu performance last nightguess no one is replying Cuz they don't know either lol
Mane
Anyone not feeling the Barkley love?
The stats aren't as good, there's the argument that it's a purple patch and he will be able to keep up his High Conversion rate. Which side are you on?o/
Who's your Sanchez replacement in that case?
Coutinho
Cheers, as it stands, I am joining you.
Thoughts on Hazard? Fixtures are great and there's the possibility he starts upfront, no stats to show for it though.No underlying stats to support Hazard is the reason behind I keep myself away from getting him, but I need someone to replace Mane after this GW. Could be Silva, but Hazard is also under consideration, worse comes to worst I will just keep Mane.
I think KdB + Silva could be overkill, especially when Aguero's still in the team injury free. We'll be scrambling for him soon.
I transferred KdB out last GW to fund Kun, which caused my rank drop like a stone.
He went on a long run of blanks before his recent explosions, I'm still not convinced. I think he's going to frustrate his owners over the coming weeks.
Exactly my thoughts Innsie. Still remember he didn't get anything when Everton scored 6 past Sunderland and 3 past WBA earlier in the season.
Deulofeu seems very consistent with his assists. Almost like an Ozil.I've had Deulofeu for a couple of weeks now, he's probably the one player who I'm super happy and excited to own. Such a talent.
Definitely, and the fact that he is at just 3% ownership as compared to Barkley's 33% really makes you wonder why he has been overlooked so much.
Who is your Sanchez replacement?A large percentage of Barkley's ownership is due to the casuals near the start of the season when he was doing well.
Ozil. I'm a bit late to the party on that one 😆Ah yes, I did see your blog last week. Still keeping Lens though? That's a very strange selection, I do remember him being good under Advocaat, how's he doing under Allardyce?
Sold Lens last week. He basically played one game under Big Sam and has been benched ever since. Disastrous pick!
...your blop?
R.I.P.?Dunno Tina. Been busy lately, finished uni for the year and now have a job over christmas. I've (dare I say it) given up on this season and might play a bit punty from here on in, so I'm not sure how much use the blog will be, especially for the regular readers. I wouldn't want to lead people into taking the punts that I will be!
no problem. i remember you mentioned uni. results ok? you finished with degree?
Results were good thanks, pretty chuffed with them. Only just finished my first year so 2 more to go!
aah, congrats! what's the job all about? casual or linked to degree?
Just casual. Need to earn some money, it's tough being a student!
Guys good to go and save FT?
bego
bellerin skrtel vvd
ozil kdb mane willian
kane lukaku vardy
McCarthy mahrez morgan dannDon't like to bench Mahrez, but also not really sure who to replace with tbh. Other than that, I think gtg.
Cheers. Its between mahrez and willian for me
I have mane mahrez kdb ozil deolefeu kane vardy Kaku. . I don't know who to bench either sigh
Same situation. Between mahrez and deolefeu I guess
save. who u cappin.. kane or Kaku for me
Kaku
I feel like prob vardy is due to blank soon.. mahrez to blank again I highly doubt. that's what killing me. I Wana bench deulefeo but after his performance last night I need to reconsider
I might not have the bells to bench mahrez after having him on my bench for his 15 point haul earlier in the season
you are afraid to bench vardy huh.. lol I am too.. it's gona be a tuff decision. I am a cfc fan but I would bench Willian if I were u.. easier decision for u than for me with my players
I'd bench Willian.
If I bench him at home to Bou when would I ever play him?
Well that's the thing, since you've got him it pretty much forces you to play him this week. I don't rate Willian as a fantasy asset at all.
Got him instead of Barkley few gws back purely cause I support the blues and wanted a Chelsea player in my team. Worked out well!
Interesting to see Ozil and Lukaku in a two horse race for captains pole considering both play against tight defenses.
Between kane/coutinho/mane myselfI'm going with kane
How do I look for this GW? Any help is appreciated.
Myhill
Coleman Moreno Nyom
KDB Ozil Barkley Hazard(c)
Lukaku Vardy Aguero
Bench: Alli Janmaat Simpson
no transfers 1m itb. TV 106Looks good.
Gtg.
Who would you remove for Ozil?
Butland Henessey
Azpil Bellerin Moreno Francis Huth
Hazard (c) KDB Coutinho Barkley Mahrez
Kane Lukaku VardyMaybe Mahrez, since you have Vardy, and I think not worth to keep both Leicester players with their upcoming fixtures.
Mahrez if you can afford it, Hazard if you can't
So Baines played a few minutes...how did he look? anyone saw that match?
8 years, 6 months ago
Too many gambles in this team?
Butland
Bellerin Kolarov Bertrand
Ozil Hazard Mahrez Firmino
Lukaku Kun Vardy
McCarthy Francis Williams Westwood
Who to captain? Between Ozil, Kun, Lukaku and dare I say it..... Hazard I think!
