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

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Current team :

    Elliot | Speroni

    Davies | Otamendi | Jones | Daniels | Mee

    Coutinho | D.Silva | Sterling | Richarlison | Carroll

    Kane | Lukaku | Abraham

    £0.9 itb.

    GW13 : Save FT
    GW14 : Morata > Lukaku (£1.9 itb)
    GW15 : Hazard > D.Silva (-£0.5 itb)

    So as you see, I will be £0.5 short (maybe more if there are more prices changes) to bring Hazard in GW14. I will have 2 FTs by then though, so I can make an other move that will be an enabler for Hazard. Which one is the best :

    A) Niasse > Abraham (saving £0.8) and play 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 in GW15
    B) Kenny > Jones (saving £0.9)
    C) Kenny > Davies (saving £1.4)
    D) Other

      A...Niasse. His returns on limited pitch time are impressive. After his suspension think he will be a great value third striker.

    How long is Jones out?

    1. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mou said he is out for the weekend so there is a posibility that he will be ok for the midweek game

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

    Long term: Kola, Kompany, or Alonso (already have Azpi)?

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

      Bellerin or Alonso.

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

        Why Bellerin over Kola?

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

          I think Bellerin's assist and bap potential outweighs kola's goal threat (+Wenger can always play Kola at CB).

    2. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kompany to spread it around though I'm tempted by the Chelsea double up.

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

      Alonso and Azpi double up is too much imo. I would go Otamendi instead of Komps

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

        I typically opt for diversity in D too, but CHE fixtures GWs 14 - 27 . . . If ever there were a time . . .

  4. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Fabianski, Elliot
    Jones, Daniels, Moreno, Mee, Mariappa
    Salah, Sterling, Zaha, Richarlison, Carroll
    Aguero, Kane, Morata

    a) Jones, Sterling, Kun > Simpson, Sane, Lukaku for -4
    b) Jones, Kun > Mustafi, Lukaku
    c) Kun > Lukaku and bank FT
    d) some other idea

  5. Monkey Hanger

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hate the look of my defence this week, even if I were to bring in someone for Jones.

    Is it just one of those difficult weeks?

    Anyone happy with their defensive line up this week?

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

      Happy for now, will hate it in a few gws.

      1. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I have Kola and Ward playing each other. Then Jones, Fernandez, Zanka, and DDG.

    2. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mine isn't looking great.

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

      Not amazing and I WC'd over the break!

      Mee-Azpi-Daniels this week (Moreno and Duffy on the bench)

  6. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Would you play this GW:

    a) Elliot & Naughton
    b) Fabianski & TCarroll (I have Daniels)

  7. davies
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Play one:

    A) Gomez (CHE)
    B) Mee (ARS)

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

      A

    2. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      B - Burnley have the capacity to frustrate Arsenal and are much much better defensively.

    3. Tibbs
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      B

  8. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Fabianski
    Bellerin Ake Alonso
    Salah KDB Eriksen Ritchie
    Abraham Lukaku Firmino

    Elliot Jones Carroll Tuanzabe

    1 FT & 0 ITB

    Jones & Eriksen > Otamendi & Sane for -4 this week?

    1. Vlad Tepes
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      No

  9. Pumpkinhead
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on a BOU double up Daniels and Bego - Swa A, Bur H, Sou H, Cry, A

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

      What about after those 4

      1. Pumpkinhead
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Easy switch - Have money in the bank and can do Daniels to Jones

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

    What's the latest on Carroll? Has he lost his place in the Swans side now?

  11. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Long term(5-8 gws atleast):
    A. Haz + Niasse +Mustafi
    or
    B. Sterling + Wilson + Alonso

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

      A

  12. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Bearing in mind I need the player this game week. Jones to...
    A. Dann
    B. Kiko
    C. Mee

    Have Kola/Daniels/Duffy/Mbemba. Will get Alonso in next week when I can sell Vardy.

    1. Ha.

    Do we think Silva starts the next 3 games after his rest yesterday?

    He’s been rested for the last 2 CL games and the next CL game is after these 3.

    1. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He will probably play most if not all of the PL games over the holidays. The dudes a beast.

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

      That's the million dollar q because if Silva starts next 3. It's _____ --> Silva not Pogba.

  14. Viper
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Carroll - > RLC - 4 (benching Gross)? I'm thinking if it doesn't pay off this week it surely will in the weeks to come with all the rotation on the way

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

      Just play groß

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

        Pretty much a certain blank though. Palace have a game that RLC could actually get something from

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

          Is RLC going to get more than 6 points? I highly doubt it

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

            It's very doable and then I will have a playing 5th midfielder going forward

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

      Only do that for free.

    3. El_Shaw
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm in the same position but I would never do it for a hit.

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

      RLC looks great, can't say its worth -4, but I just got him in for Carroll for the best long term 4.5 option

  15. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I already own luka & morata..should i be worried about not owning kane this week ?

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

      Those without Kane climbed the ranks substantially this past few GWs. If Kane doesn't punish non-owners now, you should never be worried again.

    2. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      You should be worried about not owning Kane every week. Though it's worked out nicely for you the last few.

    3. Viper
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nah, worst case scenario he gets 17 points. How bad can it really be 😉

      He'll probably do nothing anyway. Especially if I captain him

      1. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        the guy scored a hatrick in the last match against WB..

    4. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Luka's next 2 fixtures are too good to miss...and incase of morata, fixtures after pool match looks plum..so i just don't like the idea of transfering out either of them for kane..( tho am worried about kane going on a rampage this week..)

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

    No Morata in the starting XL Luiz does start.. Certainly he will not play on saturday then?

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

      Nothing certain

    2. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He won’t play imo.

    3. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Have we learnt nothing. We can't predict these kinds of things. Logic says you're right but logic hasn't been right all season haha

  17. BoooomXhakaLaka
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I have 1 FT to make on a midfielder as a punt for this game week only. 7.2 mil max budget.
    Who looks the best? Zaha?

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

      Richarlison/Choupo/even Shaqiri in addtion to Zaha

  18. emyoueffsee
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Aguero to Lukaku a no brainer?

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

      I'm getting Morata

  19. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What is your teams real value? I am on the best ever so far with 101.8. TV is 103.3

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

      Sv. 102.4 tv. 104.6

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

      100.5

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

      SV is 100.5 and my TV is 102.2

    4. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      102.7

      SV a little over 101 I think

    5. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      SV 101.7

      Doesn't matter much at the moment with an abundance of cheap options.

    6. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      103.9 SV
      102.3 actual budget

    7. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      caught up a bit now

      SV 100.5 and TV 102.0

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

    I think this is the week to make the decision on Kane guys.
    Captain him, WBA have been awful, and if he fails, dont captain him again.

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

      I'm keeping not capping.. glass half full approach

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

        Same here probably

    2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Same boat mate

    3. Tshelby
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I think I will captain someone els. Owning him is enough for now for me

    4. SAY MY NAME
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      i plan to captain him

  21. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    De Gea without Jones playing not worth it getting.

    Fact or Myth?

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

      Myth

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

        Thanks Viper, any stats to back it up?

    2. Giles G
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Myth. Is the Jones injury a bad one then?

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

        I think Jose wants to rest Jones until GW15 to be able to have Jones 100% fit to face Arsenal and City. They need to win those if they really want to compete no 1 spot.

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

      In all the minutes Jones has been on the pitch they've conceded 3 goals. In the 180 odd minutes he's missed they've also conceded 3

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

        That sounds like:
        With Jones 900 minutes - 3 goals
        Without Jones - 180 minutes - 3 goals

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

          That's the one.

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

            That's settled then, no De Gea until Jones plays, then probably get Jones.

  22. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Everton not lying down over this Niasse decision, 'We will make further comment when we have fully reviewed the observations contained in the report'.

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Good, I'm happy with casuals still buying him in

  23. Sickboy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    My word there has been a sea change in opinion on Alonso over the last couple of weeks.

    Is it the fixtures alone or his goal last week against WBA?

    He was awful for me earlier this season.

    1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He is awful azpi for me

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Just variance. He's always a good option as long as Kante is fit, it's whether the price tag is justified over cheaper options.

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

      Has anyone even seen his goal, worst marking i've ever seen from WBA

  24. Boxwoods
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Ritchie to Shaqiri too sideways?

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

      no way, shaqiri looks great imo

  25. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    As a Niasse owner I'm going after every Premiership player with even a HINT of DIVING!

    (Unless he's in my team 🙂 )

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

      Your not alone.

  26. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pogba or Richarlison? For long term?

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

      shouldnt be one or the other with these two

    2. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      If you have the money, I guess Pogba!

  27. Jimjam
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Play Tarkowski (ARS) or Moreno (CHE)??

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Tarkowski

  28. Hart-ake
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Planning to do Jones to Mustafi after Jose's comments yesterday. Any better option with nothing itb?

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I am doing the same!

  29. Jon Bones Jones
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Should I wait Jones or sell for Mustafi? He won't play for weekend and when he returns he has some difficult fixtures. Want him as season keeper but is it smarter to sell now and return him after Arsenal and City?

    1. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Exactly my thoughts. Even if he's hit for the Watford game, he might be rested for the following game. Won't be risked.

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I am doing Jones to Mustafi!

    3. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sell imo

    4. Jon Bones Jones
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Utd is good defensivly against big teams this season, but I don't see them keeping CS in both games. And if Jones in next 4 games is rested one or maybe even two games and other two keeping only one CS I think is time to sell.

    5. SAY MY NAME
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      i promised myself and everyone else i was keeping (after stupidly selling him when he was ''injured'' earlier in the season, only to end up playing every game and racking up the points) - but now this is a definite game missing injury according to Mou, and with the tricky fixtures, and with Rojo coming back as competition during 'the rotation season', i've decided to sell - can re-examine his position in a few gws

  30. Ode
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Kane needs to start banging goals against these smaller teams if he wants to join Madrid
