With the gameweek complete, our Members can now soak up all the numbers from another weekend’s football via our Members area. All the Opta data and ICT Index scores are in and, as usual, we can now offer a match-by-match breakdown of the standout performers, with an early prediction of the EA PPI and Fantasy Premier League bonus points…
In case anyone missed it yesterday, there were 2 new suspensions picked up as a result of accumulated yellows, with Jason Lowe and Seb Larsson the offending players.
Replacing them on the suspension tightrope for the international break we have some fantasy favourites, with Joey Barton, Stephen Hunt and new midfield choice du jour Jamie O'Hara all now sitting one booking away from punishment. The massed ranks of players balancing precariously in the same position now number 11, with other prospective bandwagons also amongst them - Frank Lampard and Gabby Agbonlahor, perhaps the most obvious.Open Controls
Nice work Anorak...we're waiting on confirmation on the Lowe suspension just in case the. After the Larsson situation we're checking every one with the FA now before adding. We're 99% certain on it though.
Open ControlsNo problem. The tightrope is my bread and butter, I'll leave the actual suspensions to the professionals...
Open Controls
Top marks, Anorak - ta! 🙂
Open Controls
Lampard on 11? That's a spanner in the works...
Open Controls
Not really IMO last 4 seasons he hasnt once went over 5 yellows over a whole season.
So theres as much chance of him not getting a booking for ages than him getting one soon.Open Controls
i hope you've strengthened the portion of the tightrope lampard is on
Open Controls
Lowe was on loan at Oldham last season and didnt really impress me...wonder why Blackburn are poor........
Open Controls
evenin' all
please fill me in on the following, as my team seems to be dropping like flies:
1. sinclair - why only 17min?
2. Mpetrov - why didn't he play?
3. bosingwa - why didn't he play?
4. tiote - why didn't he play?
TA!Open Controls
1. Tight hammy, came on for last 17
2. Shit
3. Shit
4. InjuredOpen Controls
Haha!! love this quick lowdown, clear, concise, and to the point.....and true 🙂
Open Controlsall i wanted 🙂
Open Controls
who is the priority to remove? bosingwa? might swap him for jones
Open ControlsI've got Bosingwa and Petrov - sold Bos last night, might sell Petrov tonight or be sensible and wait for the int games. I had 2 frees, though.
Bos to Jones sounds good, esp as you've got de Laet as well.Open Controls
2. Got dropped, they won 5-0. Say goodbye!
Open Controls
need a name for the walters bandwagon.
Open Controlslol top marks. beats walter skiis
Open Controls
willy walters OR willy warmer walters lol
Open Controls😆 home game are the bridge, away games the troubled walters
Open Controls
The Waltzer?
Open Controls
Who are the best strikers for the next 4/5 weeks apart from rvp???
Open ControlsRooney
Open Controls
Is this worth doing for -4points?
OUT: Suarez, Bosingwa, MPetrov(bol)
IN: Dzeko, Jagielka, WaltersOpen Controls
probably doing WC this GW. Who are the essentials?
Open Controls
Sunderland have a tasty run ahead, make sure you don't miss it,
Open Controls
If I was doing mine this week I'd spend a bit of time pondering how I was going to get 15 non-droppable, un-rotatable players in the for Christmas period.
Teams with good fixtures include:
Everton,
Norwich,
United,
Tottenham,
Stoke,
Arsenal.
So buy or prepare to buy, some good, solid, un-rotatable options from these please.Open Controls
nobody told me there was a new post. how rude.
Open Controls
Today will be known as the fantasy football wet fart day from here forward.
Open ControlsIt was a massive letdown.
Anyone remember that Robert Huth v Sunderland GW last year? Djourou scored...
Torres debut v Pool meant the Sunday was the hyped day but Arse v Newc helped to make it the Saturday of the season. Sunday was a letdown.Open Controls
Dont remind me on that Huth vs Sunderland haul, I had him on my bench that week and still racked up 75+ points
Open Controls
why's that then
Open Controls
At least Adebayor got an assist 😉
Open Controls
Thinking of using my WC this week. My team is:
Given/Ruddy
Simpson, Ntaylor, Brown, Bos, Ward
Sinclair, Moses, VDV, Silva, Ramsey
RVP, Adebayor, Suarez
I really hate my defence, they have been crap so far. This week was lucky with Ward/simpson and ntaylor coming from the bench. I want to get rid of both keepers, Ward, Bos, Sinclair, Moses, Suarez and possibly also ramsey, ade, simpson, ntaylor. Is it worth using my WC?Open ControlsI think it's a good team to go with for a few weeks ahead. Only concern is Bos who doesn't look to be nailed on anymore. Midfield looks good enough as well as attack. Goalkeeping shouldn't be an issue, you can easily take Given off for the in-form Vorm.
Open Controls
What do you think of this change
Most of us have been going with an understandable 3-4-3 to have 3 big guns up front. With the recent weeks showing only a couple of clear consistent forwards would it be a better option switching to a 3-5-2 and having all 5 mids play that are bringing in more points and only two big forwards and the cheapie (Ba, Hoillet, Graham etc.)
Thought?Open Controls
If you have Ba, you should play him
Open Controls
Given - Vorm
Kompany - Jose Enrique - Ward - Brown - N Taylor
Silva - Van Der Vaart - Cabaye - Ramsey - Moses
Van Persie - Suarez - Sturridge
Overall, a fairly disappointing week for me. However, I do have 2 free transfers for use now. I think I'll do Drenthe in for Cabaye and then probably get Bendtner in for either Sturridge or Suarez. But really, I'm completely unsure. Any opinions would be massively welcome. 🙂Open Controls
Guys I need some serious help, if it weren't for like 4 players on my team, I'd have done terribly this week!
Vorm, Ruddy (I played ruddy 🙠)
Kompany, R Taylor, N Taylor (swa), Evans, Walker
Sinclair, Murphy, Silva, VDV, Eagles,
Rooney, sturridge, RVP
0.2 in the bank
Thanks a lot 🙂Open ControlsYou actually have a good squad mate
Open ControlsWhat should I do about Rooney, Sturridge, Murphy at least then? I guess the rest I can bear 🙂
Open ControlsIf you take roon and sturridge out, they're bound to start scoring again. Every player has a bad run! Murphy, yeah fair enough. What about Drenthe? Do nothing until after the break tho mate
Open Controls
Joe Allen or N Dyer
as long term budget option ?Open Controlsdyer. 43 games 2 goals last season for allen.
Open Controls
5-0 😀
I went to the game today. I was absolutely loving itOpen Controlslol nice one, what a turnaround
Open ControlsYea was a great performance to be fair.
The switch to 433 really worked - playing Muamba and Reo Coker (to make us more solid in centre mid really worked) and Robinson didn't look hopelessly exposed today.
Stoke were awful though. I think they are starting to get found out.Open Controls
Allen. Even tho I have Dyer!
Open Controls
so glad that ward finally rewarded my faith in him!
also, dyer in for petrov!!! 🙂Open Controlscome again?!
Open Controls
Double risers before next gw: raylor, bale, dzeko, ba - correct? add someone?
cheers!Open Controls
Don't want to lose Rooney but want RVP so the only way I can do it is
Suarez>RVP
Nani> Pilkington or some other mid?
Would leave 1.8 in the bank but only other big mid is VDV
Good moves or not?Open Controls
not bad at all. getting rid of suarez should be most players' priority. waste.
Open Controls
Has history been updated or what?
Open Controls
Which one of you is Ninja Skrtl my H2H opponent this week? I doff my hat to you sir, going to be 90 plus for you after bonus.
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/1170/history/
And re Wigan to me....the flynn is dead, long live the king. 😉 Going to be tight with bonus, but might have just beaten the leader In Like Flynn by the odd point or two.
Steady week for me 56 pre bonus, pretty average for here, probably just above average..now off to the members area to consult the stats for my next transfer ahead of Nov 19.Open Controls
Oh no,I accidentally pressed wildcard button! Oh well, it must be fate!
I've gone for this team to try and increase value:
Kenny Vorm
Verm Ward Kompany Enrique Simpson
VdV Bale Toure Eagles O'Hara
RvP Klasnic Dzeko
1.4 left, anyone I've missed?!Open Controlstotal fpl predicting bonus for dyer, FFS says no. Which one is correct?
Open Controls
Dyer had some good stats - no doubt about that, we mention it above. However, I expect defenders to win out - Williams has some impressive figures and has had some love from the EA PPI before now. Dyer might sneak in somewhere though - will be interesting to see how the PPI scores attacking stats in a 0-0 though.
Open Controls
Everton- 4 amazing home games in next 6 fixtures
Will their DGW fit into this spell? If not which GW is it?
Which EVE players do people recommend for this run?
Hope someone can shed some light on this, many thanks.Open Controlsi think Rodwell has been overlooked. dont have access to stats but seems to be performing well
Open ControlsCheers jonty, I'm a newcastle fan and watched the game, he looks dangerous, I was nervous about him alright, do you think he hinders baines' potential? a bit of a card magnet though maybe?
Open Controls
Drenthe, possibly Hibbert. Not Saha 😉
Open Controlsdrenthe or rodwell
Open Controls
Will wait till after the int break but any help with this lot:
Bosingwa to Jones
Petrov to Eagles
Or
Bosingwa to 5.6m ????
Petrov to Drenthe
ThanksOpen Controls
I hear talk re: RVP losing an assist? Think it'll definitely happen?
Open ControlsNot updated total scores in the leagues here, yet.
