We take our usual post-Gameweek delve into the members data this evening. Chelsea and West Ham’s playmakers are under assessment, as are Spurs and City’s main men up front, whilst we also cast an eye over Bournemouth’s fit-again flier and Norwich’s improving wide man as the Canaries attempt to salvage their top-flight berth for another season.
Morning,
I have 4 not playing and 2 FT. I'm after some advice as to who to lose and who to get in
Hart, Hennessey
Daniels, Williams, Fuchs, Wollsheid (Fonte*)
Mahrez, Ali (Firmino*, Ozil*, Payet*)
Aguero, Kane, Vardy
Thinking
A. Fonte -> VVD
B. Fonte -> Toby
C. One of the mids -> siggy (which one)?
A and Save.
B and Save the other
C - you have plenty of defenders.
City at NOR should be ringing the warning bells. Payet->Yoyo.
C. Payet to Siggy and save the other
D Fonte to kompany?
If you've got money tied up in those mids, Fonte > Toby. Otherwise Payet > city mid might be an interesting option - though I'd probably stick with Payet.
From becoming an extra attacking player, i've become an extra defensive player. Not hits in 12 gws. I'm thinking about saving transfers rather than spending. I am thinking of saving my WC as long as possible and not attack GW34 with a wc in 33.
Matured or lost your edge?
May have something to do with leading a very close ML. Second is only 8 points behind me but has used WC and BB. So i'm keeping my cards in hand for as long as possible.
"There is neither good nor bad; only thinking makes it so." 😉
same here , over last 4 gws insated of going offesive i decided to slowly fix my defence and was heavily rewarded wuth fuchs,vvd and williams pts + i didnt loose any of firmino,payet and ozil so managed to catch all their hauls
those 4 gws has been massive difference for my season
agree about wc as well
Current team with 1FT, 0.0 itb
Schmeicel (Butland)
Toby VVD Williams (Saylor, Bellerin*)
Arnautovic Alli Mahrez Silva (Payet*)
Aguero Kane Vardy
Which is better?
A- Bellerin > Daniels
B- Bellerin > Sagna/Clichy
C- Payet > Siggy.
D- Save FT, wait till after Europa League matches.
You have 11, I'd save FT and use it to bring in an extra DGW player. Keep Bellerin and Payet.. They'll be great options for the DGW. Especially Bellerin with Arsenal's fixtures.
D
Is Craig on this morning?
Still Phil and Holly as far as I'm aware.
is it really worth wcing in gw 33?
i already have Aguero,Kompany,Firmino,Ozil and Payet
4FT's to get another 4 dgw players without any pts hit (and -4 is never a problem if i wanna have 10)
also gw 34 could be the only oportunity to triple C aguero since he wont have 2 dgws
also spurs,lei and swansa all have good fixure that gw so i am not sure that dgw players will outscore sgw player by much
anyone in simillar situation like me and planing to wc in gw 37?As i see it its currently 60% looking to wc GW 33, 40% are looking to WC 36.
They 60% are the lazier/impatient lot. Some of them genuinely believe that this GW will be more profitable though.I'm a 33er at present - 34 DGW looks more profitable. Problem is the teams with the best 34 fixtures are likely to not play in 35, so over the 2 weeks we run a risk of not gaining much.
Exactly why i'm leaning 36 Pasq. I'm even looking at 35 as a WC option depending on fixtures.
That's a bit off-the-wall. Most of the teams who played in 35 will be the single-gameweekers in 37 - seems a bit of a waste to me.
patience is key , and i dont find it easy to loose alli,kane,mahrez,vardy for wba,swa,wha and sto
There'll probably be a load of rot in 37 so it's quite high risk to leave your WC till then.
There will be 10 teams still fighting for their lives Jafa.
Are they a likely supply of FF options though?
Only time will tell. At present i can manage 9 DGWers for 34.
i can take some nice punts for gw37 + willhave 2 FT's for gw 38 , and my team wont be crippled
playing wc in gw 33 needs some massive plaining cause it's blank in gw 35 and if someone gets injureed it wont be good
ad there great mid term fixures for lei and spurs and you have a problem since everyone will get rid of those players
Arsenal did their job, so now I just need man city to get their double for gw37 to make decision very easy.
Wouldn't be major surprise if city were to pick gw37 for double - things would be clearer for CL and PL by then.
I'm lazy and v impatient plus love wildcatding so gw33 it is. Have a poor rank of 220k so looking to make an earlier run. I feel many of the desirable teams/players will have 2 dgws so want them earlier; Liv, Ars, WHam, Eve and maybe Che, City.
Butland (Hennessy)
VVD Williams Simpsons Daniels (Bellerin)
Siggy Arnie Alli (Ozil Payet)
Aguero Kane Vardy
A) Payet -> Mahrez
B) Payet -> Silva
C) Hennessy -> Hart
Got 2 FT so i rather use 1.
Crazy you dont own Mahrez. Probably Silva for the imminent double. Do you still have WC and BB?
i got all my chips intact
I am thinking of rolling my transfer this GW of all GWs! Do you agree?
Butland
VVD Fuchs Daniels
Mahrez Arnautovic Alli Yaya
Aguero(c) Kane Vardy
Forster Ozil Bellerin Dawson
excellent team - yes roll the transfer.
Cheers old man!
save the trf
Yes. Save FT
Thanks all, save it is
Liverpool will have a DGW34, game GW35 v NEW and a DGW37 most likely. Good thing to get 3 Liverpool Assets. Question is: Who?
Firmino. Sturridge. Clyne. Milner. Coutinho. Mignolet.
Pick from these 3.Already counting Mignolet out. Firmino definitely one.
Firminho the obvious one. Then I guess if Sturridge can prove his fitness. Defence is a bit meh
Agree
Mignolet, Firmino and maybe a punt on Milner
don't like mignolet 🙁
Can't make a save so no point
Always ignore Migs as he ignores the first SoT
This 😀
Firmino, Coutinho and Moreno.
Firmino for sure.... The rest who knows. All pretty trash
Miller Firmino and maybe Sturridge
So next, in the series of which defender to start is...
Wolly
V
Simpson
Please place you votes...Actually Start both and bench Williams.
Changed your mind now ?
Why's that?
The Shawcross effect?Yes.
And bou are on a bit of a goalscoring run with Gradel, King, Afobe and Ritchie. Formidable front 4.
Plus Swans are away.
It's just old Bap magnet Ashley if they do get a cleanie
It would make sense really to go with the 2 home players in Wolly & SimpsonAgreed. SOT don't score too many.
Simpson from them.
Start both, bench Williams.
Homer
Wolly esp if the ShawX is back.
So play...
Williams & Wolly and bench Simpson (NEW) ?I trust LEI more than SWN even though Willy has decent baps.
Play Simpson and Wolly.Cheers fella
BIG match on Saturday... Cmon WALES 😉 !!!
I don't want to get rid of Payet or Ozil, and I can comfortably field an 11 I'm happy with (4-3-3) for GW30.
Should I get rid of one of them?
Forster (Gomes)
Alderwield Williams Huth Wollscheid
Eriksen Mahrez Siggy
Kane Kun Vardy
(Targett, Ozil, Payet)I wouldn't as you have 4 great defenders there for this week
Ta, think I'll do just that then!
Who would you get in for Targett??
A) VVD
B) Daniels
Butland Hennessey
Bellerin Alderweireld Kompany Targett Simpson
Özil Payet Mahrez Sigurdsson Alli
Aguero Kane Vardy
FT: 1, ITB: 3.2, WC, BB
Probably VVD for fixtures, Daniels if you have other plans for the cash.
1FT 2.8itb
Schmeichel
Wollscheid Alderweireld Targett
Alli Sigurdsson Mahrez Özil*
Agüero Vardy Kane
Subs: de Gea* Lingard* Ivanovic* Bellerín*
What do you reckon?
A) Ozil>Silva, play Targett and hope
B) Ozil,Targett > Silva, Daniels(-4), save $$$
C) Ozil,Targett > Silva, Kompany(-4), no $$$
A, C, B. It that order, IMO.
Thanks, hits for blank weeks have to be a no no.
So. Give it the old 4 3 3 this week or lose Payet to Yaya with this lot? Was going to roll a transfer for now.
Butland
Williams VVD Kompany Huth
Ayew Mahrez Alli
Kane Aguero Vardy
( Hennessy Ozil Payet Francis)Save
Lets talk captain. Who and why?
Aguero
Why?
I don't want spend 90 minutes on the weekend hiding behind my setteeKane vs Villa and Vardy vs New not tempting you? Nor have tightened up.
Also, City have not looked a great attacking force recently.
Nope
It's pleasant behind the settee, try it 🙂*not pleasant
Aguero for me. Why? It's Aguero vs Norwich.
Lots of great options..hence..
Think Kane.
Villa.Kun due an injury too
aguero,easy diecission really
-in form
-on pens
-plays nor
-has a great history in this fixure
-best stats
as for kane ....he will play in europe tomorrow and wont be as fresh
mahrez/vardy are options but i am not taking that punt
I'd quite forgotten about Europa in last night's excitement.
Kane...
simply because Aguero plays in the 1st match 😀Probably Kun as he'll be fresh. Might have limited minuted though.
Aguero. Good fixture, good form.
Kane is close, but when in doubt I usually go with the heaviest hitter, and there's none as heavy as Aguero this season IMO.Kun.
Pens
It's Citeh.
It's Norwich.
The Holy Trinity of Bad K, Silva and Yoyo means goals for Kun
On form
Kun's stats esp mins per chance/attempt
RMT
SimplesKane.
Pens.
Spuds.
Villa.
Form.
Stats.
Simples.There's no hope 🙁
Vardy
Best team in the league vs the 2nd worse.But vardys been poop. Mahrez > Vardy
Well, he's another good option. Either way I expect City to run rampant.
Ya, which is why most are going Kun. 😉
Good morning. I've got 1 FT and 1.2 ITB.
A) Costa > Kane
B) Elliot/Hennessey > Forster/Fabianski
C) Save for DGW and hope Targett plays
D) Suggestions? 🙂
Elliot
Targett Wollscheid Kompany Simpson
Sigurdsson Alli Silva Mahrez
Agüero Vardy
Subs: Hennessey Özil Bellerín Costa
I've had Mahrez from week 1 until now, and having pretty much planned the rest of my season's transfers and with no wildcard, I can't see me getting rid of him before the end.
Anyone else remember having a player for a full season?I'll probably be getting rid of Mahrez for the last 3 games or so.
But to answer the actual question. I've had crap cheap bench players for a whole season, I can't recall having someone that I play game in game out for a full season though.
Yeah, if there was an FPL hall of fame I'd say he'd have to be top 5 all things considered. Can't see him being cheaper than 10m on next season's game if he stays. Crazy really
I have had mahrez since game week 1 as well, and would rather have him over vardy, cant think of a player ive had all season
Ive also has butland since gw1
I've had Toby since the start, doubt I'll be getting rid
Gomes*
Huth Toby VVD
Sanchez* Siggy Mahrez Payet*
Kane Vardy Aguero(c)
Subs: Hennessey* Willian* Bellerin* Targett
0.4 ITB, 1 FT
Should I take a -4 hit for Sanchez > Silva and Bellerin > Kompany? Any other suggestions if not?
Lads
Worth doing Ozil out for Siggy ? I would lose 0.3 and in terms of planning another transfer for DGW ( no WC)
It would also let me field 10 for this GWYes. At this stage of the season TV and budgets count for little. I call it freeriding and playing the fixxies. I removed Payet for Yoyo last week.
Nice grav. 😉Ta
does my 5-2-3 for the weekend looks good?
Fabianski
Williams / Kompany / Van Dijk / Fuchs / Francis
Alli / Mahrez
Aguero(C) / Vardy / KaneNoice.
Great. Green arrow incoming.
G2G?
Butland (Forster)
Daniels Alder Fuchs Komp (VVD)
Ayew Mahrez Alli (Ozil Payet - no games)
Kun(C)? Kane(C)? Aguero
Or play VVD for one of the other defenders?How many players have you got this week? i have 12 but want all of them to play 🙁 (no transfers done)
I have to drop one of
1) Siggy
2) wimmer
3) danielsDaniels, not pretty I know but I fancy Swans to score.
but daniles? he scores when he wants 🙁 😛
🙁 He'll blank someday. Don't think he'll score in 2 consecutive games 🙁
Easy game for Bournemouth. There will be no fans cheering Swansea on as they'll all be staying home to watch the rugby.
😀 Think it'll end 3-1 Bournemouth
But charlie daniels isnt a lb, he is a lw/st 🙂
or listening to the radio as they watch at Bournemouth.
Is Targett likely to play this weekend? If he doesn't I can't field 11 and with a lack of funds I'll have to do Payet out for siggy or bellerin out for someone. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
More likely than the last couple gameweeks but not for sure.
Man City have scored 13 times away from home - that's an average of exactly 1 per match ...........
Kane (c)
Certainly thinking about it.
You'd have to expect them to get higher than average in the easier ones.
True, but I wouldn't expect a Suarez-style scoring bonanza.
Uefa finally give in to 20th Century technology.

Can the video Ref be far behind?Thank G0d! Dragged kicking and screaming into the modern age. It doesn't seem to have done rugby much harm.
Hi guys! Looks like a simple one for me for either Azpi/Cresswell
A. Williams
B. Daniels / Francis
C. Something else?
Butland (Forster)
Alder Simpson Kompany (Azpi Cresswell)
Mahrez Alli Arnie (Ozil Payet)
Auguero Kane Vardy
WC and BB in tact. Cheers folks.
The three people chasing me in my mini league have 6, 4 and 8 players from their last week squads available for this week to my 11. This could finally be the weekend my planning pays off and I get to pull away. Here's hoping they transferred in arsenal players early in the week!
The differnce between using this website and not 🙂 my mini league is all messed upwith 6/7 players, but im having problems who to bench
Haha. Yeah I even brought Fonte in for this gameweek and could still use my FT to get a 12th playing player, just to make certain in case someone like Alli doesn't play. I feel so prepared 🙂
My team, what would you do this week? I have 5 defenders who i would want to play :/
Butland
Kompany - Wimmer - Alder - Daniels - Simpson
Mahrez Shaqiri
Aguero - Kane - Vardy
(Henn, Sanchez, Payet, Siggy)
Is this the right team to play or bench daniels for siggggggy
Hey lads, need to make a move to get 10 out for this GW. Which looks best to you lot?
A. Özil ➡ Siggy
B. Özil ➡ Eriksen
C. Payet ➡ Siggy
ThanksDon't like either. Maybe get a def?
Lose whichever one you have less value tied up in (Eriksen)
Got more value tied up in Özil, but unfortunately Payet to Erik isnt possible.
Moreno and Payet to Cook and Eriksen for a full playing XI is possible though.
Does anyone know separately which teams have a DGW in GW 34 and which teams have DGW in GW 37 ?
I have Francis Williams Huth and Toby, would you double up in def with any of them?
Toby yeah I guess
Davies if Rose is out for 4 weeks WR.
Toby yeah
It's only for this week so yeah, he's probably favourite
I have toby and wimmer 😛
