Gareth Bale saves the gameweek, as Tottenham’s 2-0 win draws things to a close. Time for us to round things up, rummaging through the Opta data to pick out the statistics that matter, taking a punt at the Fantasy Premier League bonus points along the way…
how many bp will adebayor get
Open ControlsEvans to drop down in price anytime? Because he is so cheap, do you think people will just keep him in squad until he recovers?
Open Controlshow many bp will ba get
Open Controlsme 48 my fpl cuo rival 47 - thats how it stands if baps in article are correct!! sheeeiiiiit
Open ControlsI've got really twitchy feet over Silva now..had him since the start and reluctant to sell but there seems better options right now?
Open Controlsit can wait for me though as half the world atill hav e him - well 45%
Open Controlsi sold him for valencia this week, paid off 😀 will get him back in winter wildcard when their fixtures are better
Open Controlsnot owning silva has basically given me an extra midfield slot to play with every week and claw back a lot of points, my league leader is trying to cover my moves but i keep getting in a week ahead thanks to the extra freedom of no silva
Open Controls
Alright before I look at the price rises and panic I think my team looks alright?
Vorm (Cerny)
Jones, Enrique, Smalling
Nani, Silva, Bale, Drenthe
RVP, Ade, Sturridge
(Cerny, BAE, Dyer, Simpson)
.3 in the bank, 1FT
Not planning on any transfers this week. If Jones and Smalling miss out then at least I have cover. There aren't any keeper for 4.3 worth looking at are there?Open ControlsSorenson is 4.3m.
Team looks good to me, wouldn't be worried about BAE coming in and at least one of Smalling or Jones is likely to play.Open ControlsOh brilliant. Straight in then. Perfect transfer. Cheers.
Open Controls
Sorensen is 4.3 and due to rise
Open Controlsfor me mac - every poor week is usually followed by a good week - you have good players who wont score everymatch is all
its all good - whats your rank - i am 30k before the update tonight 9 when ever it is)Open ControlsRoughly the same rank as you. I scored alright this week in the end. Bale saved me.
Open Controls
Cheers.
Open Controls
Pretty much the exact team i'm planning, although maybe BAE instead of smalling due to DGW.
Open ControlsHave BAE already but if you don't already he's better than Smalling for the next couple.
Open Controls
Haha, wouldn't you know it? My cup opponent, non-player with a ranking of 2.6 million and a team of seven players, has Bale as captain. Gone...
Open Controlsmy mate has a guy 2515590 and he is loosing ha!
Open Controls
So most will be doing Ba > Sturridge. Is there any love for Ba > Saha? He's done absolutely nothing so far, but double game week coming up and decent fixtures.
Already have Mata also.Open Controls1FT, 0.2m in the bank, thinking of J Evans -> BAE and Mata -> Bale for the DGW (I know Mata’s fixtures look tasty, but leaving out Bale at the moment seems like suicide!)
Krul, Vorm
N Taylor, Simpson, J Evans, Shotton, Jose Enrique
Silva , Ben Arfa, Mata, Nani, Dyer
Van Persie, Adebayor , Sturridge
Is getting rid of Dyer more of a priority?!Open ControlsAny help please guys?!
Open Controls
looking for advice right now:
Krul
Jose Baines Walker Evans Caulker
Silva Drente Nani Dyer O'hara
Ade RVP Ba
obviously need O'hara switiching out firstly but wondering about anything else. Was all up for Ba out for Studge but not sure ou can dump someone on that kind of streak.Open ControlsAnybody considering Ferreira for the next few GWs? It seems AVB has locked away the high line and will play Romeu sitting every game.
Open ControlsIvanovic yes. I've heard bosingwa struggling.
Open Controls
Thoughts on this team
Howard, (Vorm)
Enrqiue, Senderos, McAuley (Simpson, Wilkinson)
Nani(C), Mata, Silva, Moses, (Sessengon)
RVP, Adebayor, BaOpen ControlsWell you have Ba vs Enrique so you are hedging your bets by playing them both.
Since 'Pool are struggling for goals then I'd play Simpson instead of Enrique.
No Bale for the DGW is problematic.Open ControlsYoiks. Any way you can downgrade a player this week to afford another way of upgrading a mid to Bale?
Open ControlsThis is after a big hit. Click on the link if you want to laugh.
Open ControlsJesus wept!
Or he would do if he could see the Bale to Nani transfer.... 😀
Can't see a way of getting Bale in other than taking massive hits or swapping him for Silva or Nani, but that may be your best option.
You would lose less money on Nani to Bale though, so I'd do that.Open Controls
not enough bale
Open ControlsDefence is very weak
Open Controls
sunderland have a bit of a defensive injury crisis going on, man city have a game 2 days after this one, step forward edin away game specialist dzeko
Open Controlsis bedknobs and boomsticks stil oin??
Open ControlsHad one too many awful gameweeks despite a solid team. Just bought in Ben Arfa this gameweek.
Vorm
Naylor Verm Jones Enrique King
Bale Nani Silva BArfa Drenthe
Ade Ba Rooney
Nani and Rooney ruined the gameweek - united's lax attitude!Open ControlsSo lax they scored five!
Open Controls
i fukin hate being out of the fantasy cup, i know i won't win but i like a good cup run!
Open Controlsafter subs come on it is going down to baps. If RTaylor gets 2 or me then I am finished.
Open Controlsgod thats horrible! i laughed at my opponent when i saw he'd obertan! His assist has knocked me out haha!
Open ControlsHe has Allen, RTaylor and Simpson off his bench. I have BAE to come from bench. Before subs I am leading 31-19.
Open Controlsi think you'll be fine, because Ba and Ade could get baps
Open Controls
Drenthe stats are absolutely dire this week. Wondering if its even worth bringing him in.
Open ControlsBa to Sturridge still good? Or kompany to BAE? Or walters to osman?
Howard
Jones, Enrique, Shotton
Silva, Nani, Bale, Walters
RVP, Adebayor, Ba
(Vorm, Kompany, Gower, Simpson)
0.3 spare, 2 ftOpen ControlsAre people going for Osman over Drenthe following the recent form shown by Osman?
Open Controlsi do agree with you but please don't count osman's assist this week in your thinking. he got 3 points for kicking himself ffs
Open ControlsY
Open ControlsThe extra 1 or so mil puts me off.
Open Controls
47 points. BP for a couple of players to come. Not great but im pretty happy considering I had 16 this time yesterday.
Open ControlsSo after a dreadful gameweek, the leader of my mini league is about 90 points ahead. We have differentials but I think his are probably better and, where one of mine does well, he's brought them in anyway.
I think a lot of people can relate to this circumstance - does anyone have any general advice on how best to deal with this situation? Has anyone been in this situation and come out a winner in the end? Would definitely appreciate some advice!Open ControlsThis is the position of my defence-
caulker, j.evans, j.enrique,assuko etto, wilkinson,
With 3 plays not likely to play next next week, I really need to get a defender for a max of 4.5. I am looking specifically at the next 3 fixtures only, after that i wc.
So whom do you guys recommend till gw21?Open ControlsSince no-one is giving me advice, I'm going with shotton. Any comments?
Open Controls
How'd everyone score?
I was on 29 with Bale and Adebayor to play, thank feck they turned up !
47 pre-bp's
Dunno how that holds up, just woke up.Open Controls55 pre-bp's. Bale, Ba, Mata should lift me about 60.
Open Controls
In need of help. 2FTs and 0 in bank but desperately need to get bale in. Team as follows
Howard
Jones Brown BAE
Silva Nani Walters Larsson
Ba RVP Ade
Subs: Vorm, Moses, Naylor, Simpson
Originally i was always going Larsson-Drenthe and Ba-Sturridge but feel i need to get bale in,
Only options i can think of instead are
A) Howard-Sorensen (therefore missing dgw from howard), Ba-Fletcher, Larsson-Bale (either this week for 4 pointer or next week for free.)
B) Brown-Shotton, Ba-Morrison/Holt and Larsson->Bale (same as above)
Thoughts/Opinions would be greatly appreciatedOpen ControlsBut was thinking altough Everton play twice you'd expect them to concede against tott so even if they get a cleanie vs bolton he may only get 8 points max. and if they concede 2 against tott which is very likely i may only gain 1 point extra if sorensen gets a cleanie. All depends on whether or not you value fletcher or yak ahead of morrison
Open Controls
Transfer plan was:
Given > Sorenson tonight
Then
Aguero > Adebayor and
Walters > Bale nect week
if Bale goes up more than 0.1 I can't do this
Is this likely to happen?Open ControlsBale is likely to go up especially with that two goal performance.
Open Controls
definitely. Had it on him this week and he did nothing, recently he seems to have 1 good week ans one bad. He came after an hour or so yesterday to get rested, he'll destroy Rovers.
Open Controls
+1
Open Controls
Rooney
Open ControlsHe'll be scoring for fun against Blackburn (maybe).
Open Controls
Sturridge, Mata or Nani.
Open ControlsMaybe Studge. Too risky for RVP(c) when he could be benched. Ade vs Swansea could be tough.
Open ControlsSturridge
Open ControlsNo love for RvP? Wenger may want to play him to bounce back from a disappointing draw.
Open Controls
my current team..
vorm
jones enrique walker simpson wilkinson
nani silva walters moses larsson
ba RVP adebayor
nid to gei bale in.. but how?? 2 FT and 0.7 in bank
pls gv me some ideas..tq~Open Controlsba->sturridge is essential now. Follow it with degrading a defender to raise enough cash to upgrade a midfielder to bale. So 4 pt is req if you want bale next week.
Open Controls
Think im going to bring in hibbert. 4 points DGW pretty good. Might sneak CS vs bolton.
