We cast an eye over the members’ data now, assessing some of the top performers over Gameweek 4’s fixtures. Chelsea and Everton’s improving frontmen are assessed, as are West Ham and Man City’s standout weekend performers, whilst we also analyse a couple of new recruits at Goodison and the Bet365 ahead of some fine fixtures.
Heaton/Foster
Stones/Walker/Shaw/Van Aanholt/Amat
Haz/Antonio/Barkley/Cap/Snod
Lukaku/Ibra/Negredo
£4 ITB
Noted.
Update Negredo and Barkley
*Upgrade
I was thinking Barkley, Stones and Negredo, out for Aguero and two cheapies, Fer and Jags?
Pick one...
a Williams+Firm+Bolassie
b Williams+Mane+Snoddy
c Baines+Firm+Snoddy
C
thks flynny.
C, but just because of Baines.
C
At the moment (c) but have a feeling for (b) in the long run.
A or C for me
The differance is if you want to use Bolaissie who has great fixtures now or Snoddy who has a few difficult games now , but great fixtures later.
B
how do you know what the question is? 😉
Because there is a + in the question and there are different options. If you think this is comparable then I despair but I think you are joking. Thankfully.
Close between A and C. Would go with A mainly because Snodgrass has awful fixtures while Bolasie has great fixtures.
B) Firmino got the goals last week, but mane looks involved in everything and I guess would outscore Firm in the long run easily
b - expecting big season from Mané (who trolled me big time last season I must say)
Hi...I desperately need with Kun to fall..
Or lukaku to rise in price this week..
So I can afford my wildcard team next week.
Is either likely?
TaI reckon both will happen.
Lukaku will definately rise, Kun is hard to tell but very likely.
Are you sure you don't need Lukaku to rise twice for this?
Cheers...from recollection I bought lukaku at 9m....
And he is about to move to 9.2.....
So I get the 0.1...Ah so he is, thought he was still at 9.0.
planning to wc next gameweek
A) play capoue as 4th mid
B) capoue as 5th mid and i'm probably never gonna play him
C) any playing 4.5mid as 5th midfielder
A or C
Right, I need some help. Currently lining up like this:
Foster (Jakup)
Collins, Shaw, Valencia (Souare, Amat)
Hazard, Barkley, Redmond, Tadic (Maloney)
Ibra - Costa - Negredo
Do I....
1) Take a -4 and do Tadic + Souare --> Antonio + Walker (this also means taking a hit next week to get Aguero back)
2) Tadic --> AntonioWhy are you so eager to remove Tadic before Swans at home? I'd be more concerned abot Collins or Shaw (injury)
I'm not feeling confident about the Southampton double-up
definitely leave them for swans at hime you will regtret dropping one
Keep Tadic for this week. Take out Barkley for Antonio if you would like
Who to sell?
A- Barkley
B- Lamela
to
1- Antonio
2- Bolasie
3- SterlingA -> 1
Coin flip > 1
A to 1
Foster(pickford)
Walker, mcauley, baines(amat, love)
Ozil, hazard, coutinho, antonio,(capoue)
Ibra, tekkers, lukaku.
0.4 ITB
I'll stick with coutinho and if he blanks next match I may bring another liv midfielderYe... Give him another shot
What would you guys do here?
Heaton Jakupovic
Shaw Stones Friend Amat Love
Hazard Mahrez Firmino Antonio Capoue
Ibra Costa Negredo
1ft
0.8 itb
Mahrez has to go right? But surely not before Burnley at home?
I can save this week and do Mahrez, Stones and Negredo to 4.5, 4,5 and Aguero for -4 the week after. Sound like a plan?Defo save TF if you have no injuries or rotation risks... It will help a lot when you will be bringing Kun back
yes
How's this looking upon Aguero return? no spurs or arsenal 🙁
Foster, Heaton
Valencia, Williams, Stones, Friend, Amat
Hazard, Firmino, Antonio, Bolasie, Capoue,
Aguero, Ibra, DeeneyHazard to Sanchez/Cazorla.
not enough cash for sanchez and I feel hazard could be a seasons keeper? I would like cazorla
Is it WC team?
nope, not used my WC but would require a -4
No Arsenal can be painful, but if you don't want to use WC then this team looks decent, imo...
Naked somehow
😮
Nice team but I would do Hazard to Sanchez/Ozil. You can take a 4.0 priced GK for Sanchez
If you had to, who would you lose on a WC
A) Stones
B) Williams
C) One of Shaw or Valencia (lose one keep the other)
A
A all the way
Easy C. And A. Lose both Shaw and Stones
B when Kompany comes back. Otherwise A or B depending on fixtures
Would you transfer in cazola for Ozil or any other preferred player
Mid: hazard, Ozil, lamela, Antonio and Capone.
Keep lamela or not and if not who to transfer in.two out of the 3? firmino, carzola or bolasie
cazorla*
People who are settling for Cazorla in their WC team... it'll be pretty painful where Ozil and Sanchez are racking in the points and Cazorla is getting nothing because no more penalties are given.
He got some decent share of FKs and corners, but overall I think what you say may happen
When did he last score a direct free kick? Relying on set piece points is just not viable especially when Sanchez and Ozil bring in the big points home. His points tally this season is very misleading, 2 pens already and 2 assists which happened in that freak game vs Liverpool
Doesn't really matter how he gets points tbh and he gets forward.
It does matter - his source of points just isn't consistent. When was the last time he came anywhere near Sanchez's points?
It doesn't matter. At the end of the day he currently has more points than Ozil/Sanchez. I dont care how he gets points and I am sure his owners dont either. He played 1000 minutes last year and was in and out of the team due to injuries. Have set pieces is a bonus and like I said he gets forward.
Plus he is a lot cheaper and money can be splashed elsewhere. I am an Ozil owner but your arguments are not really making sense. Look to the present, not past.
Not making sense? Sanchez will end up probably being one of highest points scorers in FPL. But because he got 1 point last week and Cazorla hit a 95th minute penalty he's the better choice.
Mate I really dont care. Just get who you want and move along.
😆
Yes, 4 weeks in. 10 weeks in there'll be a huge gap between his score and Ozil/Sanchez.
Right now Capoue is the highest FPL point scorer, doesn't mean he's the best option which is what you're saying.
I get that he's much cheaper and there's loads of other great options elsewhere, so money is tight. I can just see people struggling to get those 2 in over Cazorla especially when most WCs have been playedOk, well dont get Cazorla. Just wait 10 weeks for this gap to happen, if it actually does based on nothing this season.
Like I said - I think you're right, but time will tell... Set pieces can be very dangerous weapon in terms of fantasy points... And you can upgrade your team in other positions with money you saved comparing to Alexis...
Would Ibra starting tomorrow give anyone concern for captaining him Sunday? Currently have the armband on him
Nah.
Nope
Not at all
No. I think tomorrow he will not play for full 90 min
No.
but he won't start tomorrow . . . Rashford will.
Foster
Walker - Stones - Shaw
Özil - Lamela - Hazard - Sterling
Lukaku (c) - Ibrahimovic - Gray
Subs: Heaton, Collins, Amat and Höjbjerg.
Bank: 0.2.
Any change of my team? What do you think?How many FTs do you have? Do you have WC available?
Wildcard I have already introduced last week. I only have one FT.
One of the better teams. What's your Aguero plan?
I'd get rid of Gray and Lamela, other than that it's solid. Slight risk with Sterling.Thx.
After the performance of Lukuku + good Fixture, I'm first unsure how I plan to Kun. But would probably sell Ozil safely. Then I have to wait. With Lukaku I'm first in good hands.
Ozil,Stones & Lamela > Antonio, Mane & Williams and your all set.
Lamela to Antonio or Lamela, Gray to Bolasie, Benteke
Man Utd Squad for Tomorrow
De Gea, Romero, Johnstone; Darmian, Bailly, Blind, Fosu-Mensah, Rojo, Smalling; Carrick, Fellaini, Herrera, Mata, Memphis, Pogba, Schneiderlin, Young; Ibrahimovic, Martial, Rashford.
(Not sure if it's been posted)
No Rooney! Hat trick incoming
Lovren 😀
Hope he doesn't play. That being said, he can get nasty too. Might give Costa a good game but I doubt it.
Pick one for GW7 onwards:
Hazard (hul, LEI, MUN, sou, EVE, mid)
OR
Ibra (STO, liv, che, BUR, swa, ARS)Haz
really tempted to transfer KDB in for Hazard, but also really want Kane, cant really achieve this without a massive hit any suggestions. Here is my team.
GK: Dea (Valdes)
DEF: Williams, Valencia, Stones (Morgan, VanDijk)
MID: Hazard, Firmino, Lamela, Antonio, Redmond
STR: Benteke, Vardy (Negardo)
£1.3m ITB
Save the hits for when you get Aguero back. No need for Morgan and VVD. Get 2 X 4.0s in there to free up funds.
Defence looks like this. Does it need any changes. Thinking need to fit walker into this defence
Def: Valencia, Williams, collins, McCauley, AmatValencia, Williams, and McCauley are keepers.
Collins could very well lose his starting spot to Ogbonna. Plus, West Ham's defense has been poor so far. I would not be comfortable having him and would be looking to swap him out for a more reliable 4.5
Amat should be upgraded to a good 4.5 if possible. i understand he is there strictly because of his price, but
it may not be long before he is on the bench as well.
Just want to know what the consensus here is on Mané vs Firmino. Who do we think is the better pick?
Firmino for me. Being cheaper also helps!
Fair, both are great players but I'm a Mané man myself 🙂
I like Mane, happy Monday night for us mate 🙂
😀
I'min the Mane camp. But would easily downgrade on a wc if I needed the .5
Nice, cheers.
both
Another great route to go down 🙂
Slightly Firminho... Mostly cause of value, but his false 9 speaks to me as well
i prefer Firmino + .5
Collins nailed on for WHU ?
Nope
Ahh cheers
i don't think so.
Incoming Hazard Firmino Ozil Sanchez and Redmond blank this weekend. Because I have them.
When will the group stages start for Jaffaliscious' FFS champions league competition? This week or next week?
Jaffalicious*
Failed 'up yours' emoji 😀
Best defender available- 4.6 or under for a WC team?
WBA
Holebas for attacking potential
Robertson. Great fixtures upcoming, attacking, and only has to compete with Davies and the Hull GK for defensive baps
thoughts on my team
GK: Dea (Valdes)
DEF: Williams, Valencia, Stones (Morgan, VanDijk)
MID: Hazard, Firmino, Lamela, Antonio, Redmond
STR: Benteke, Vardy (Negardo)
£1.3m ITBAntonio to go to 7.2 before next deadline? 86.0 on FPL stats with a delta of around 14,000
Of course.
I bloody well hope not.
I doubt he will.seems certain.
Too knee jerky, or do I need Lukaku in here for a -4?
Fixtures are plum bang on form and price is rising. Nothing really obvious about how I get there though. Any ideas?
A) Santi & Defoe -> Snoddy & Lukaku (-4)
B) Sanchez & Defoe -> Silva/Firm & Lukaku (-4)
C) Something else
D) Forget about Trolkaku
Cech
Baines, Valencia, Collins
Sanchez, Haz, Antonio, Santi
Ibra, Benteke, Defoe
Pickford, Capoue, Kone, Amat
Bank 0.0m, 1FTIt's a solid team, not worth downgrading any of the mids yet just for Lukaku. Maybe just wait a week and see how your 2 ARS mids get on. Then get either Aguero or Lukaku with a LIV mid for free or a -4 next week.
Based on your set up I'd probably forget about him
Those with WC intact and using GW6 to get Kun back...anyone thinking of not including Ibra? Lukaku/ Kane/ Costa could cover his points and then you'd have more money for 3rd striker/ stronger midfield? High Ibra ownership is obviously the concern here.
Also if you've yet to jump on the Capoue bandwagon - despite his price rises, is he still worth including in a WC or should I just accept that I've missed that boat and find another cheap 5th mid?Ibra to Aguero for me.
Not interested in Costa with the one match ban looming and having to double with Haz for not the best fixtures. The other two I'd rather wait to see consistency which Ibra has already showed.
I'd only get Capoue now if you think he's good enough to be your 4th mid. I'd rather save 0.4m and get De Roon as my 5th midAll fair points...Think you're right on Capoue - although Watford have decent fixtures coming up I'm keen on Ighalo as my 3rd striker and think double Watford would be a mistake! Forgot about Costa's likely upcoming ban! cheers.
Keeping Ibra
Does anybody here connect their iphone to their tv?
To watch stuff?
Sellotape should be fine.
Through an Apple TV...yes!
No through a hdmi connector on a normal hdtv?
Dont think an HDMI connector will work.
How's this looking for a WC team?
Foster / (Jaku)
Valencia / Stones / Williams / Evans / (Amat)
Hazard / Cazorla / Antonio / (Snodgrass) / (Capoue)
Aguero / Ibra / Benteke
1. Thinking of playing Kane vs. SUN and bringing Kun in next week.
2. Take out Hazard & Snoddy > Bolasie & Firmino?
