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.
Yaya over Silva?
Silva.
I prefer Silva but thats just me.
Silva for me as well
I got yaya.....toss of a coin tho
Silva
Silva IMO
Who would you rather lose to bring in Alexis for the DGW? Mahrez or Alli?
Have Silva Firmino and Ozil as my other mids.Alli.
Alli
I suppose it would have to be alli imo
Alli, not even a contest
Chasing big time or leading?
Mahrez out could be genius. But LEI's run in is too attractive. Surely has to be Alli all things considered.Leading.
Going to disagree on this one. If you're making the transfer right before the DGW, Alli has much better fixtures till the end. He plays a bunch of teams that won't have anything to play for, and also has Newcastle in GW 38 who might already be relegated by that point.
Meanwhile, Mahrez's last 3 fixtures..Alli
In case it is of any use, I've updated my blank and DGW planning chart in light of Arsenal's cup win:

I visit it EVERYDAY!
PS Love youOh, so you're the one! 😀
Thanks a lot Diva! Phenomenal work!
Cheers. And congratulations on becoming a dad!
Thank you very much Diva! Will look at your article while being awake at nights! 😀
Lovely.
Cheers. Did you have a good time in South Africa?
Absolutely incredible. Best place I've been.
Glad to hear you had a great time!
Great thanks I've been looking for something like this, good job!
Thanks, hope it helps.
Good job Diva. GW34 looks a minefield - I'm sure there are other permutations that you haven't included which involve the possibility of bringing a GW35 postponement back into 34 - but that would be too much work. I'm hope for your sake there's no cup replays - then you should be able to simplify it a bit.
Thanks Pasqualinho. Yes, this is a simple version. For example, I mention in part eight a scenario which could deny Manchester United a second double gameweek, but that would require three fixtures to go the right way and for a decision on rearranging to have not already have been made.
Not forgetting the Sun v Eve GW36 possibility. It's a tricky one to navigate but, as far as maps go, this looks to be the best.
Thanks, and yes, I haven't even tried yet to factor in the possibility of a third rearranged Everton fixture yet.
part nine.. yay!
Ooh Look at the pretty colours. Top info, thanks.
Thanks for this, helps alot 🙂
Thanks a lot !
Congratulations on becoming a father Prophet. 🙂
Thanks a lot my man! I really appreciate it! They are coming out of the hospital tomorrow! 🙂
Congrats Prophet 🙂
Woo hoo
So little problem
I have 2ft, 3,4 in the bank and two players are missing from squad to have all playing.
----------------Forster--------------
Simpson-----Van Dijk----Alderweireld
Mahrez---Arnautovic---Alli
Vardy-------Agüero
Not playing: Ivanovic, Souaré, Costa, Antonio, Sánchez, Gomiz
Should i make 1 move or waste 2? And for who maybe?
Costa to Kane, Sanchez to Silva
Morning all!
How are everyone's teams shaping up following last nights result?12 of the finest players available.
What this horse said!
With some of the finest fixtures
Strong fixtures all around, confident
Me too.
Share? 🙂
Me three! Hoping for another week like last
Would be a lovely week for big scores with lots of people with only 7 or 8 players
In good shape after the Arsenal win. 12 players.
In overall it is good thing but I have only 10 players atm and 1 FT. Praying Alli to be fit
Yeah - I'm highly anticipating news out of the Spurs camp for both Alli and Rose
Very well 🙂 Think I can even roll a transfer!
14 to choose from
No, 13.
11 here
4-3-3
Butters
Wolly/Vvd/Kompany/Simpson
Mahrez/Siggy/Alli
Kun(c)/Kane/Vardy
(Özil/Payet/Bellend)
1ft 3.4 itb
Is team good enough to save, would you consider Payet to Silva for free?Ok thanks all 🙁
save imo .. only silva if you will wc gw33
Same as it was before, got not Arsenal players.
11 starters all being well. 😀
13 all up. My season begins now.
13 players (including one goalie which doesnt matter since its Elliot) VvD Sub!
10 players available, 1 FT. Probably gonna be Sanchez out for either Siggy or a city mid.
12 but that includes Targett.
Have to think whether it's worth burning a transfer to take Payet out for a week or two or starting Smith against Swansea.
Don't normally like 4-3-3.
will have a rethink if the DGW details start coming out as suggested tomorrow or Friday.
Happy that Arsenal went through, can still field 11 players. Regret selling Bellering though
Team as follows:
Lloris
Bertrand Morgan Dier Rangel
Mahrez Sigurdsson
Kun Aguero
Valencia**, Lingard, Azpi, Payet, Ozil
2 FTs, 4m in the bank. Currently have 9 players but 11 is possible. Valencia > Vardy with 1 FT seems a no brainer. Thoughts on the below?
A) Azpi + Valencia > Kompany + Vardy
B) Lingard + Valencia > King + Vardy, keep Azpi
C) Azpi + Lingard > Huth + Yaya (would be stuck with Valencia, messes up team structure and will be doubling up on LEI def)
A
A
A
A
thanks all
A)
A
Who to play?
A- Schmeicel
B- ButlandSchmeichel.
Same dilema
A
A
Gents...I am bringing kompany in this week in order to field a full 11....
Question is who do I get rid of?
Dawson
Moreno...even though he may have a dgw34?
ThanksDawson
Dawson
Dawson
Moreno.
Moreno, place is under threat and wba have great fixtures after blank, altho do we know how long he is out for?
How's your bench looking for this GW ?
I've got no bench cover at all
Foster, Ozil, Payet, IghaloMcCarthy,Simpson,Cedric,Özil here
Schmeichel or Butland this week?
Schmeichel for me
leaning that way
Schmeichel
Which teams are guaranteed a DGW34?
Any of those playing this GW? Maybe City or Newcastle, is that so?
None have been scheduled yet. We should get some confirmed tomorrow.
Lloris
Bellerin** Simpson Kompany
Alli Ayew Mahrez Silva
Aguero Kane(C) Vardy
Elliott Firmino Borthwick-Jackson Moreno
0.0 ITB 0 FT.
Should I take a hit to field 11 or just stick with the 10 and hope for the best?Are you planning to WC before the first DGW? If so then take a 2pt hit imo.
If not, then it depends who you want for the DGW, and if any of the benchees are excluded from this list.
We should get some DGW fixtures tomorrow apparently.Comment removed because I used the term b and j together, not replying to any teams now that have him in their team!
Me too and I only mentioned a NZ cricketer of same initials. 😡
This is getting out of hand, Shirley we are all mature adults on here? I mean like those initials are so overrated?
🙂
The minority spoiling it for the masses I'm afraid. CBJ should be good.
I can't imagine what will be in the scoutcast questions today...
DGW speculation I'd of thought.
Feels like we won't get away from that for the rest of the season - which is fair enough. Plus I can't help but get a little excited!
Reckon it'll be which City mid / City mid v Sigurdsson for those with Arsenal assets.
Should I take hits to field 11 etc etcSilva is in, Gylfi is already in. Hopefully Alli is fit so VvD doesnt have to come in 😛
"Can any of you say 'big black clock' three times, really fast?"
😉'Clocks' is a banned word? 🙂
ffs!
Might as well delete the question now 🙂
Good morning !
Just one thing bothering me this GW:
Can field 11 tin GW30, so is it worth it to swap Arnie for Siggy, with Swansea having Villa in GW31? Or are FT's just too valuable at this point to bother?
Butland (Hennessey)
Toby Huth Daniels (VVD, Azpi)
Sigurdsson, Arnie*, Mahrez (Payet, Lingard*)
Kun Vardy Kane
A. Lingard -> Alli
B. Arnie > Yaya and play VVDPlay Butland (SOU) over Fabianski (bou), right?
Yea, Shawx back too.
Sweet! Double stoke defense for this week, worked like a charm last time I did that.
Same here but I benched Wollys 9 the last time 🙁
Payet to Siggy for a hit
or
Play with 10 players?Difficult one - if WC'ing before DGW34, I'd say do it , since Swansea got Villa in GW31 also.
Wouldn't take a hit to get rid of payet IMO
keep payet
Play with 10
cheers
Just realised the term 'EPL' might be a tad unfair to Swansea fans.
Maybe it should be the BPL?That only works for now. Once the sponsorship goes...
But I agree with your point re: Swansea
But isn't Wales in Ungland?
(Packs bags and reverses toward door as pack stare and snarl)
Yes Barclays Premier League
I actually meant 'British Premier League' as the default, non-sponsor affiliated name.
If Alli is out for Villa game I just might play with 10 players. There really isn't any other mids that I would want for Alli / Payet.
Taking a hit for def to play 4-3-3 just feels bit silly.Same.
He should be rested in the Europa game though...He's banned for europe, so gonna sit it out.
Oh yeah, sorted 🙂
I'm sure the good man Poch will let us know Friday.
Imagine there are only 3 more GWs and you need to choose a GK.
Who is it?Schmeichel probably
good shout
Hart
Depends on the fixtures real Doc!
😉
Eriksen or Sigurdsson?
siggy
Eriksen
Both?
2FT, 0.6 ITB
Butland / Myhill
Monreal / Cahill / Dawson / Fuchs / Smith
Ozil / Firmino / Payet / Mahrez / Watson
Aguero / Kane / Ighalo
Looking threadbare for this week!Oh dear! Got any moves in mind?
Was going to do Cahill to Williams and Ighalo to Vardy (this was before last night's games)
suggested sth similar.
Bear in mind that every hit is practically -2pts this week. You could take a couple for -4.
Eh, how does this work!?
Blankers get 0pts, and if you trade for a starter you're already 2pts up.
Oh, I get you now!
What moves would you make then?Firmino, Payet, Ighalo, Dawson -> Some starters?
With so many transfers there's endless possibilities...
I'd want to keep Ozil.
crap.
Can you afford Ighalo + Cahill > Vardy + Rangel?Yes I could do this
What would you do with one of the FT in this?
Butland
Williams Alderweireld Daniels Fuchs
Arnautovic Mahrez Silva
Agüero Kane Vardy
Subs: Hennessey Alli Targett Özil
2FT 3.6m
I assume one of Alli or Targett will play so I have cover for 11.
So I can afford to transfer in a DGWer. I might try to keep the WC for after 34
Arnie to firminio?
Targett to someone? He is so cheap thoughWell that's a luxury transfer alright!
I would consider Hennessey > Robles if you want a DGWer. will be very useful considering he has 2 DGWs, apparently even a triple GW.Cheers
with fonte not playing i think targett will play,
what needs to happen to have possible tripple gw?
heavy snow all over UK for next 2 weeks?
Play Francis or Westwood this gameweek???
Francis by an absolute mile
Leaning towards him but getting the defender over midfielder doubts......then again expect nothing more than a 2 pointer from either.
Best defender to buy under 5.3
Butland myhill
Toby Francis huth ward
Thankswilliams
If Shawcross is fit, Wollscheid. If not, Williams.
Cheers lads. I forgot to mention it's only for the next three.
Wolly's next 3 are nice. 4.5m
How does this look for a DGW 34 team:
Butland/Hennesey
Huth/Kompany/Bellerin/Dier/Daniels
Antonio/Eriksen/Firmino/Sanchez/Mahrez
Aguero/Lukaku/Martial
Can be done with just taking 2 hits between now and GW34.
Any thoughts? Eriksen to Silva perhaps.
Thought about Sturridge for Martial but don't think Sturridge will play both games.Too early to comment until we know the fixtures
Which two to play?
A) Kompany (nor)
B) Simpson (NEW)
C) Wollscheid (SOT)
D) Arnautovic (SOT)A and D
B and d
With only 10 starters is Sanchez to Silva a noBrainer!?
