Our final Tuesday evening article delves into members’ data, as we take our usual scan of some of the standout numbers over the weekend’s ten fixtures.

We compare Gabriel Jesus’ displays with those of Sergio Aguero at Manchester City and check up on the recent performances of Swansea City’s and Manchester United’s in-demand midfielders.

The impact of Philippe Coutinho since returning from injury comes under the spotlight, while we also analyse the frontmen at Everton and Crystal Palace after a weekend of wildly contrasting fortunes.

    Anyone going to gamble on a Hull midfielder to replace sanchez.

    I can see hull winning 2/3 and sure it is pot luck who gets the points. Less to loose than at first glance.

    I can not get Barkley as I have 2 everton defenders and need to leave space for lukaku

      Not this week of course

    Mark is very subtle at planting doubt into peoples heads

      Sauce?

    Still after a bit more advice on whether i should take a hit to get rid of Boruc? Other keeper is Pickford. Thanks.
    Boruc > Jaku for -4?
    Yes
    No

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Boruc to Joel

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Jaku or Randolph is all i can afford unfortunatley

        1. zotter

  4. Dirty Harry

    Who to keep for Siggy:

    1. Eriksen
    2. Alli
    3. Save

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Alli.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      I'm keeping both for their incredible run of fixtures after the blank as i dont have Kane but if i had to keep one it would be Alli!

      1. Dirty Harry
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Plan is to actually do Sanchez > Siggy next week. Then bring Sanchez back in for GW29 for Phillips.

        Thanks

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 day ago

          Yes i like that!

          1. Dirty Harry
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 23 hours ago

            Though if Spurs blank in GW28 and don't show improvement I'll drop one for Snoddy to have an extra player in GW28.

  5. Cok3y5murf

    9 years, 1 day ago

    Is taking a hit for Siggy worth it?

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Depends who for. For spurs or pool mid yes. For Sanchez may be. For Everton Wba mid no

      1. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        I understand the reasoning but had to lol at no for a WBA mid. They have been disastrous, GW 28 or not.

        1. zotter
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 1 day ago

          I mean prioritise others like if you have Silva. Kdb. Ozil. Mki. Tadic. Redmond.

  6. cuervos
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Jones and Allen to Robertson and Siggy?

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Yep

      1. zotter
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 23 hours ago

        Yep

  7. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    How's my WC team looking...

    Heaton / Jaku
    Alonso / Coleman / Brunt / Yoshida / Robertson
    Sanchez / Alli / Siggy / Snodgrass / Carroll
    Kane / Lukaku / Costa

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Nice

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Thanks mate. Any changes you'd make?
        Alli is probably the only one but no idea who I would get in for him.

  8. AK ⭐
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Is anyone planning to get a Chelsea attacker before GW26 ie Swansea at home?

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Costa and Alonso for me

      1. AK ⭐
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Getting rid of Ibra I assume?

        What would your strikeforce be?

        1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 day ago

          Costa. Kane. Lukaku.

          1. AK ⭐
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 1 day ago

            And that means you're losing Sanchez too.

            I am not sure I wanna get rid of both Ibra and Sanchez. I fancy Sanchez GW29 to 34.

            1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 23 hours ago

              I've still got Sanchez.

              1. AK ⭐
                • 13 Years
                9 years, 23 hours ago

                You've got Sanchez, Kane, Costa and Lukaku?

                1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
                  • 9 Years
                  9 years, 23 hours ago

                  Yes. If you look above you can see my WC team.

    2. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Pedro

      1. AK ⭐
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Very good shout, I still don't know how we are rotating Willian/Pedro though. I did suspect we'd play Willian against Liverpool cause they are really bad at set pieces and he is one of the best in the squad after Fabregas. Apart from that, no clue really.

        1. Team Bobcat
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 23 hours ago

          The way I am reading it is as follows. Pedro is the more attacking player. Whoever pedro is named in the starting team then it will be an attacking team. Willian appears better defensively. I was surprised to see Willian playing against Liverpool. In a way it easy a show of respect to Liverpool. When I sawait pedro start against Arsenal it meant one thing. They would be going for it. Pedro backfired badly against Spurs but there were other issues that day also.

          So pedro appears nailed against teams chelsea aim at bringing down. Think willian will start against man city but time will tell. Therefore Pedro should be nailed for the next 4/5 starts

          Wishful thinking maybe as I own him too

    3. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Hazard.

      Not decided between Kane or Costa.

  9. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Better option and why?

    A) Alonso & Kane
    (6-7 max GW28 players)

    B) Baines & Costa
    (7-8 max GW28 players)

    Have Luiz, Hazard, Coleman, Lukaku, Alli.

    Appreciate your thoughts! 🙂

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      B

  10. 8ball
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Kane is about to drop in price. Any idea why?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      People buying Lukaku

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        And Jesus

    2. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Kaku and Jesus

    3. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Because of the Lukaka 4-for and the mad rush to get Hazard, again.

  11. Bobadoba
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    1. Barkley and Kane
    Or
    2. Siggy and Costa

    Worried about not having Kane as think can be explosive.

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      2 just because I don't rate Barkley

    2. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      2.

      1. Bobadoba
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 23 hours ago

        I agree about what you say about Barkley but isn't this offset by having Kane over Costa?

    3. Mooster©️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      yes, but if you cap Kane the odds are high to get 4p, and then you get tired and cap someone else while can scores hattrick... cap costa you get 12+ almost every gw

    4. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      2 easily

  12. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Best replacement for Sanchez in next few weeks?

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Hazard

    2. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Siggy

    3. Zareos
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Siggy, the rest of attractive midfielders are likely to blank at least once in the next 4 GWs.

      1. AzzaroMax99
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 23 hours ago

        What about Alli? I have Eriksen already. I'm getting Siggy for Sterling so i need someone else...

        1. zotter
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 23 hours ago

          Alli has a tough fixture this week and will prob blank 28

        2. Dirty Harry
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 23 hours ago

          Snoddy

  13. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 23 hours ago

    I can get hazard in for Alli if I drop Alonso to Reid?
    Is that worth it or should I just stick with Alli?

    So; Reid and Hazard?
    Or
    Alonso and Alli?

    Forwards are Costa. Kane. Lukaku.

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Don't do that yet. Maybe next week

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…

        I'm on a WC.

        1. zotter

            1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 23 hours ago

              Had to. My team was a mess. Aguero, Lallana. Anichebe. Pickford. Amat and Stanislas.

              1. zotter
                • 16 Years
                9 years, 23 hours ago

                Only Aguero anichebe were urgent.

                1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
                  • 9 Years
                  9 years, 23 hours ago

                  With 1 transfer though. Totally losing ground. And was badly set up for the blanks

          2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 23 hours ago

            Do what??

            1. zotter
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 23 hours ago

              Reid and hazard

    2. Mic
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      keep

  14. Zareos
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 23 hours ago

    Heaton (Jakupovic)
    Alonso, Walker, McAuley, Holgate (Lenihan),
    Sanchez (c), Siggy, Phillips (Fletcher, T. Carroll)
    Zlatan, Costa, Lukaku

    A. Good to go; or
    B. Lenihan to Coleman (-4)

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      B. Probably pay for itself.

  15. FirminoIsBetterThanYou

    Baines Coleman Brunt

      Eriksen to siggy

      1. zotter

        Sanchez to hazard next week too

  17. Tribecca

    Out: Alli and Defoe

    In: Iwobi and lukaku

    Yes or no?

    1. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      No

    2. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Iwobi will have two blanks, go for someone else, even a one blanker.

    3. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Hell no.

    4. Ballistics
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Not sure I would drop alli or eriksen if I had both. Liverpool are poor at set pieces and struggle to block attempts in the box.

  18. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 23 hours ago

    Best defender for 5.5m for next few weeks. Thinking Reid at the moment?

    1. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Brunt

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 23 hours ago

        Have Brunt mate.

        1. Rinseboy
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 23 hours ago

          Everton then

          1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 23 hours ago

            Got Coleman.

            Defence is Coleman. Brunt. Yoshida. Robertson. 5.5?

            Maybe Fonte?

              Your other draft looked perfect, don't drop alonso it's madness

    Who would you captain from Siggy or Jesus this week?!

    Siggy is my gut feeling but Jesus looks tasty and plays MNF?

    1. Ballistics
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Jesus (C) for me

      1. Rinseboy
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 23 hours ago

        Cheers any particular reason?

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      Hmmmm, probably Siggy.
      It's not 100% Jesus will even start.

      1. Rinseboy
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 23 hours ago

        Been thinking Siggy the whole time to be fair. Even though I think jesus will score

    Firmino and Redmond are consistently racking up good statlines every time I look but the FPL points don't match. Maybe they're just both ungood at soccering?

    Worth getting Brunt in just before 26 for Bournmouth at home then Crystal Palace at home for a hit? Will double up with Gaz Mac. No one in my 2 ML has him!

    1. saint4life
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 23 hours ago

      I would. I got him for a hit last week and it paid off. I think he is probably the 3rd best defender in the game for me and I've been wanting him for ages I just haven't had the transfers available so I used the fixtures and blanks as an excuse to pull the trigger -4
