Next this Saturday, we catch up on the member’s area statistics over the last three rounds of fixtures with our usual post-Gameweek article.

We assess the lay of the land at Arsenal as a result of Olivier Giroud’s first-team return before analysing Tottenham’s man of the moment and Manchester United’s pair of form players.

West Ham and Everton also play a part in our thinking ahead of some fine upcoming fixtures.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    What do people think about Stanislas? Is he nailed? Some great games coming up and could be a good (and cheap) replacement for Siggie who has a real tough run.

      Nailed IMO. Good pick. Ive gone with Phillips as siggy replacement

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        Phillips was my Capoue replacement. I think he and Stanislas represent great value and really free up some cash to give me Costa, Ibra and Lukaku as a front 3

    2. Hooky
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Started every time he's been fit. Great option imo

    3. FPL Virgin

      Bought him two GWs ago.

      I got him in this week for Allen.

    Alonso > Baines (-4)?

      God no

      1. ZakAFC_

        Why not?

  3. VS10_

    Fuchs -> Cedric -> Ake. 😆

    1. internal error

      -> klavan

      I almost did this myself. Thank god I had patience.

      Who are you getting next? Want to avoid making the same move 😉

      1. VS10_
        • 10 Years

        There is no point wasting a transfer for another 0 point player.

    my player Nathan ake maybe evolving from Bournemouth defender to Chelsea defender 😉 now

    had him for some weeks now
    time to evolve

      Cost me 4 Pokeballs to catch him in the first place.

    3. greghammer95

      I only just caught him. I have a rogue one.

  6. The Enlightener

    When I got rid of Siggy for Alli this week, it was a bit tougher than I had anticipated. The Siggmeister likes to score against top opposition, as his record would imply at least this season.

    1. Jimmy Boy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Alli likes scoring against top opposition AND lower opposition, I made the same move. You'll be fine

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      It wont take Siggy long to remind you of his class that you can be assured of

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        Seems like every player I get rid of reminds of their class right away. 🙁

        1. Clifford☯
          • 9 Years

          Same here. But that's how FPL works. Doesn't it ?

          1. The Enlightener
            • 12 Years

            Truth!

  7. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 20 days ago

    Any chance of Ake playing defensive mid for Chelsea?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Yep, Kante on the bench.

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Ahead of who - Matic or Kante??

    3. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      if he gets recalled
      and matic and kante gets injured then maybe

    4. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      As much chance as seeing flying pigs.

    5. KUNingas
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Very small. Matic, Kante, Fabregas ahead of him

  8. Speédy

    i somehow want both ake and alonso to start each game

    1. internal error

      Could happen

    I see Jako started and kept a CS today, some hope at least

      Silva was very impressed 🙂

      Hernandez scored as well

    3. F4L

      already on my WC 🙂

  10. greghammer95
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 20 days ago

    So we reckon ake is useless now as an fpl option? Won't get in the Chelsea team surely? Glad I got him in this week....

    1. KUNingas
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      You never know. But I wouldnt buy him now.

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      You don't want a valuable Chelsea spot taken up by a (mainly) bench player

  11. Hooky
    • 10 Years

    Adam Smith owners will be happy with the Ake news!

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Yep. He was poor as a midfielder but looked good as left back

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        *right back

      2. Hooky
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        When did he play LB? Today? Usually RB

        1. internal error
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 20 days ago

          Sorry, mistake. Always at right back until the spell in midfield where he looked lost

          1. Hooky
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 20 days ago

            Agreed. Very good attacking RB but not so great at RM

    2. Ridcully
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      I sold him for Aké last week. It was part of a bigger move.

  12. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 20 days ago

    Ake will start maybe one game when he goes back to Chelsea. Probs an FA Cup match or something. That's my prediction. No way he's getting regular mins.

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      He might

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      He looks like he could be the real deal and i would not be surprised if he broke into the 1st team Alonso has been good but very wasteful after all

      I lived in The Hague for a while and all the locals used to rave about how good a player Ake is and were tipping him to be a big player for the national team in the future

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        Guess we will see. Should be interesting. I'm just not tipping him to have much of an influence this season, barring a lot of injuries to players he could fill in for. Nice to have the depth for sure if you're Chelsea.

  13. Phil Dagger ⭐
    • 9 Years

    OK
    and concentrate on your fitness 😉 😀

  14. Jet5605

    Is Lukaku likely to drop to 9.4 before next weekend?

    FFFix is showing his progress at -86% on price change predictor

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      His goal today might pursuade ppl to buy

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        He scored last weekend and I'm guessing people are selling because he is away to City

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      People are not selling, they were. And now they are simply not buying yet, due to the next fixture.

  15. VFORVANDETA

    Rmwct?

    Heaton (Grant)
    Alonso Walker Daniels (Chambers Amat)

      1. KUNingas
        • 9 Years

        Or Alli/Eriksen to Coutinho

    3. KUNingas

      Nice team. How much ITB? Coutinho is must have when fit

      1. VFORVANDETA

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years

      only forced to sell, when you decide to make a transfer

    2. Clifford☯
      • 9 Years

      You can keep all of them if you don't make any transfers till the end of the season.

      He is only on loan at Bournemoth

          Can be recalled earlier.

          1. Totti
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 20 days ago

            so they already called him?

            1. Totti
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 20 days ago

              so now if i own him will be a chelsea player in my team?

                9 years, 20 days ago

                If he goes back to Chelsea.

                  • 9 Years

                Yes. And if you already have three Chelsea the next transfer you make must be to remove one of the four.

    Why are Chelsea recalling Ake? Surely they wouldn't do it if they were not going to play him. Has Moses gone the AFCON?

    Both Spurs goals against Chelsea were crosses from Chelsea's left flank.

    Here's hoping Conte got annoyed by that and plans to play Ake instead of Alonso, who can't defend. (Ake owner and Alonso non-owner here).

      Doubts over Ake playing as being recalled by Chelsea

    If I own Ake but no other Chelsea, will I be forced to buy three more?

      Only the next time you try and make a transfer. And it'll be a gentle persuasion rather than being forced.

      4 Chelsea players in an FPL team could create a universe ending paradox...I hope people transfer him out before that happens...

        Well, if you're right, they will struggle to do it afterwards.

          ...look on the bright side, no more questions about having Ake and 3 Chelsea players in FPL 🙂
