Our regular post-Gameweek members’ article, focusing on some of the most eye-catching numbers over the previous round of fixtures, is up next.

We scrutinise a number of premium midfielders as many Fantasy managers look to invest in the centre of the park, while Spurs and Chelsea’s frontmen are also under analysis ahead of some fine upcoming schedules.

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

    Liverpool and their fans will be disappointed with that 3-3 draw with Sevilla

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Probably yeah

    2. LarryDuff
      • 10 Years

      naturally

  2. SMOOTH
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Eriksen and Sterling or Hazard and Rambo

    1. built_this_city
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      dont like either option tbh

    2. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      What about sane + pogba?

  3. Salarrivederci
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jones + Carroll -> Christensen and RLC? Since I have Niasse, Agüero and Duffy I can't leave Jones and Carroll in my team. Gotta make a move. Any ideas?

    0 FT
    0,5 ITB

    Speroni Elliot
    Jones** Monreal Aké Lowton Duffy (bad fixture)
    Salah, Silva, Hazard, Richarlison, Caroll*
    Agüero* Niasse** Kane

  4. Tshelby

    If Luiz doesn't start tonight is there any chance he starts in the weekend? Don't want to use my FT on him

  5. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Niasse officially suspended for 2 matches

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Could he lose his place for good after that? Brought him in on WC last week...

      1. Podge
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Not too likely

      2. Rash
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I doubt they have good enough options to push him put completely

    2. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      DCL wagon

    3. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yep, not too bad for owners though as he was at risk of rotation the next 2-3 GW's anyway. I got him in to free up cash for Hazard move next week, I was planning to bench him V Southampton regardless. He'll be back for Huddersfield at home fresh and hungry for goals 🙂

  6. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Kun, Carroll and Stones to Vardy, Pogba and Otamendi for -8?

    Those 2 are nailed and on pens and my defence include 2 injured players, Moreno, Lowton and Naughton.

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Injuries have hit hard but do you need to do a -8?

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Well, I could just do Stones to Otamendi, but then I have to play Gross utd away and one of Moreno and Lowton. Also have no Utd cover.

    2. sunzip14
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Everyone in here including me is trying to get rid of Vardy tbh. Only giving him one last chance!

  7. That Fantasy Guy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hi all
    My team is

    Elliot
    Davies - Alonso - Jones
    RLC - Sterling - Salah - Choupa Moting
    Lukaku - Morata - Kane

    Krul - Naughton - Carroll - Hunemeiyer
    2ft 0.2 itb

    A. Jones and Sterling -> Tarkowski and Sane
    B. Jones and Sterling -> Daniels and Pogba
    C. Other (Please suggest)

    Either way, I'll be saving a transfer for the midweek fixtures next week hopefully and then for the next weekend shift Lukaku out to Pogba/City mid and a cheapish forward.

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Jones-> Daniels
      And perhaps next gw, Davies, Sterling ->Tarkowski, Sane?

    2. Emiliano Sala
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A

  8. thewhitepele
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Fabs Elliot
    Otamendi Daniels Mee Cedric Jones*
    Salah Sane Silva Richarlison Choupo
    Kane Morata Niasse*
    1FT 0.3m ITB

    With the Niasse ban(?), what's the best move here?
    A) Niasse, Choupo --> Wilson, RLC -4pts (3-4-3)
    B) Niasse -> max 5.3 (3-5-2)
    C) Something else?

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Can see the case for A but what about Jones and niasse -> a cheap defender and Wilson?

      1. thewhitepele
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Thought about that too, and tbh could be the best option. The question is who to bring in for 4.5?

        1. That Fantasy Guy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          It's on of my potential moves and i was going to go takowski but you have mee already

          1. thewhitepele
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Yupp. Maybe Simpson could work?

  9. Rash
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    On the scoutcast the guys were on about captain scores and percentages so I checked mine and it's not good... 16.68% of my score is from my captain 104. Should I take the positives that despite such low percentage I'm not doing terrible (340k) or is it just all bad..

    How do I compare with others https://gargatron.com

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      15.47% here. Total cap score 108, swapping c/vc = 178, picking highest scorer = 310

      Ranked 96k fwiw

    2. Podge
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      156 23% happy enough with that thought it was worse

      1. Rash
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        That's very good imo

      2. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years

        Best one I've seen!

        Total points 681

        1. Pep says
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          That's not the right way to look at it cause you're never gonna pick the highest scoring player EVERY week. For example I've had Ota and Monreal 15ptrs but I was never ever gonna cap them

    4. Goat
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      136. 20.4%. Thought was worse with all the kane 2 pointers

    5. luke25
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      172 with it being 27.48% of my teams score, more than happy with the 172, not so much with the percentage of my teams score

    6. Ronnie Hotdog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I think that site is doing something wrong. It shows my total captain score as 140 & 20.9% when it should be 182 & 27%, according to FPL Statistico http://anewpla.net/fpl/report/

      1. swish41
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        If I'm not mistaken I think gargatron doesn't take into account when a vice-captain has come into effect, whilst statistico does. Have you had such situations?

    7. dark91

      148
      21.02%

      Thanks for sharing. This website is actually very useful since it shows you how many points are you behind the top 100, 1000 and so on

    8. Lumberjack
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      98, 14.35%. Turns out I’ve only captained 3 players - lukaku, Kane and Jesus, each 4 times.

    9. emyoueffsee
      • 10 Years

      23.7% here.164 points.

  10. Ziyech on the Bench
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hey guys, please let me know your opinion on the following:

    Fabianski
    Duffy, Moreno, Yedlin
    Salah, Richarlison, Hazard, Sane (C)
    Niasse, Lukaku, Kane (VC).

    My defense is probably going to get smashed this weekend and I got Francis as sub but he's serving suspension.
    Got 1.4 ITB, is it worth taking -4 to bring in Davies or Trippier (WBA @ home) or Otamendi?

    Thanks in advance!!

    1. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Wouldn't bring in a spurs full back.. ota is a good pick

      1. Stef rocks
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I do not agree - if you can afford a good bench spurs full back are guaranteed high points when they play. You just have to accept that a 5,7 def will not play each game. But when he does you will most probably get a decent return of points

        1. Rash
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I've had Davies for a long time and last 4gws 0,0,2,1 and that was before rose became fully fit

      2. Ziyech on the Bench
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Why not?

    2. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not a fan of -4s for defenders but if you must otamendi yeah

  11. GinjaWhinja
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Daniels or Are as best Bournie DF?

    1. GinjaWhinja
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      *Ake

    2. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Daniels

    3. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Daniels over Ake

    4. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Daniels

    5. Buck The Trent
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      D

  12. balint84
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    who nailed more
    Tripper or Bavies
    good to replace Jones with one of them?

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I think if you have a spurs fullback hold, but if you don't rather go otamendi. Seems like a rotation fair there for spurs

      1. balint84
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I have already 3 City players 🙁

    2. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Neither. Aurier and Rose just as nailed as Bavies and Tripp. Avoid.

    3. Stef rocks
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Probably both will play va WBA (rose and airier played in CL) but both are rotation risk!

  13. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Was Eriksen good or shite yesterday?

    1. columbo
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Played deeper though I think to accommodate son. Could have scored but I was there and the feeling was it wasn't his best game. Has played a lot of matches recently

    2. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He didn’t have an assist since GW2

      Still not in hot streak

  14. Champione
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Azpi worth 1.0 more than Otamendi? Don't need the money right now but it gives me less flexibility for later

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      planning to have both but i would say he s worth the extra money

      1. Champione
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        thanks!

  15. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Which one is better?
    A) hazard + calvert-lewin
    B) sane + wilson
    Currently thinking about A as I have silva and city has 2 tough games to face.

    1. Champione
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      B

  16. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Best

    1. Buck The Trent
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      oops.. where the rest is gone? 😯

    2. Podge
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Good for you

    3. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Save for sure with the best

  17. AF90
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jones, Firmino & Vardy -> Otamendi, Wilson & Morata? Yes or no?

    This week -8 or wait til next week -4? Would play Naughton instead this week.

    1. Champione
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I would take the hit for Otamendi but I think many will disagree

      1. Pep says
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        If Jones is out and you've got Burnley or Brighton defender then Ota is probably worth a hit

    2. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Morata and Wilson can wait till next week if you can afford or just do -4 for Wilson and Ota in. Leave Morata till next week.

  18. @fpl_phenom
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    DDG
    Daniels Ward Naughton
    Salah Sterling Richarl RLC
    Kane(C) Lukaku(V) Morata

    Elliot Carroll Hune Jones
    1FT £1.0M ITB

    GTG?

    Jones > Otamendi and bench Ward v Arsenal?

    1. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mustafi an option?

  19. columbo
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Aguero out? Haven't got Morata or Lukaku but feel it could backfire with the time game versus a poor Southampton..?

    1. FPLord
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      had the same feeling this week...

    2. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      ?

    3. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Over the next 6 weeks I'd fancy Morata to outscore Kun and Kun isn't really captainable material

  20. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Best under 4.5m defender ?

    A Tarkowski (have Pope)
    B Yedlin (have Elliott)
    C Morgan
    D Wimmer
    E Dunk

    Need a playing defender this week, so must exclude Francis.

    1. FotnikPL
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Dunk for me

    2. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kiko if he's fit. Fixtures great from gw16 onwards

  21. PlayPercentage
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    No point transferring Jones out. A short term move.
    With a midweek GW coming up, he will probably be available for GW14 and GW15.

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Probably is the issue... wonder when could we get an update? Like a training ground shot or something... if I knew he’d be back I’d keep him I think...

    2. FotnikPL
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah, "probably" is key word. We can't be sure. Maybe he will be back soon or maybe like Danny Rose recently "touch and go" for couple of months. Let's wait for press conference, hopefully we can get some clues.

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        When is the presser this week?

        1. FotnikPL
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Friday afternoon I suppose

          1. @fpl_phenom
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Just there’s a match this Friday, thought it might be earlier, sound mate

            1. FotnikPL
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              But it's not related with West Ham - Leicester match. Press conference will be held before GW deadline.

  22. Mind över Mata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Repost, how does this sound?

    Aguero and Carroll -> Wilson and Sane (-4)

    Fabianski
    Jones*, Ottamendi, Daniels
    Silva, Richarlison, Salah, RLC
    Aguero, Kane, Morata

    Elliott; Carroll, Ward, Duffy

    1. Champione
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      good moves

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes looks like a good move. Great midfield after that move

    3. FotnikPL
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Do it.

  23. DAVESAVES
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What do people think about Mustafi? Good value and decent fixtures. Trying not to jump the Otamendi-train 😉

    1. FotnikPL
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I prefer Maguire

      1. LIARS POKER
        • 9 Years

        Same

    2. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mustafi is a great shout and could prove excellent value, decent fixtures coming up.

    3. Boris Bodega
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I think he is playing better now that he is in the middle of the back three.

    Bench one:
    A) Bellerin (bur)

    D) Daniels (swa)
    E) Loftus-Cheek (STO)

    1. Pep says

      Naughton or Tarkowski

      Not sure why you'd play one of them olver Bellerin

    Thinking about taking a 4 point hit to Vardy to Wilson and Gross to Pogba. That would leave me a front 7 and bench of

    Sane Pogba Richarlson Salah
    Aguero Kane Wilson

    Elliot RLC Ward Gross Jones.

    Thoughts?

      Could be good. It's all about your estimation that Pogba will continue to produce and Vardy will not. Gross's fixtures do get a bit tougher, so I can see that, and Wilson seems like the featured forward for Bournemouth who also have four good games ahead.

      I also own Aguero, Jones and Kiko, and we/you also need to factor in the extent to which you are comfy with those 3 guys not playing this weekend. I cannot find news on Kiko, and while I think it is prudent to hold Aguero, Jones is out. Ward will come in for you, and RLC might, too, and that is fine. Gross won't be on your bench though, as you listed. Daniels, Otamendi and Ward would be your three guys if Jones and Feminia are both out.

        If I keep the same team I will prob swap Gross and Ward's bench preference, not much in it imo.

        The one thing I worry about is If I take Vardy out against an awful WH team and he scores a brace. Really in two minds whether to stick or twist. I do fancy Pogba to do well.

        I really don't think Femenia's injury is all that, he should start. If he doesn't Daniels Otamendi Ward defence is not disastous. Not touching my defence this Gw and I'm happy with the balance generally should Jones and Femenia be cleared in next couple of weeks.

    I don't get the bias against Arsenal defence.

    Theyve been painted badly, theyve been made scapegoats

    I checked Cech's stats since joining Arsenal and voila! It's better value than DDG's

    2015/16 DDG (5.9m)
    142 points in 3060 mins
    2015/16 Cech (5.9m)
    159 points in 3060 mins

    2016/17 DDG (5.5m)
    136 points in 3150 mins
    2016/17 Cech (5.4m)
    134 points in 3097 mins

      Imo you have to use their starting price so last season DDG was better than Cech. The season before that no Mourinho. However, I agree with you concerning Arsenals defence. I'm looking at bringing Mustafi in myself. Their defence is good, just not as good as Uniteds 😉

        Okay boss. But they started last season at the same price

    Looking at the run-in worth considering the following for a -4 (have exact money)?:

    OUT: Jones, Naughton
    IN: Mustafi, Daniels

    Current defence is: Azpi, Mee, Jones, Naughton (Mbemba)

    Unfortunately 0.1 off Otamendi/Kompany. Could do Jones to Mustafi for free.
