Mark Roberto Manicini’s City side cruise past the banana skin thrown down by Mark Hughes and his Fulham outfit at the Cottage. Up at Ewood meanwhile, it’s another setback for Gerard Houllier as Villa are kept at bay by a resolute Rovers following a couple of Morten Gamst Pedersen strikes. Here’s the notes from Sunday’s events…
Was looking at replacement for Elmo, Bramble looks the best option, it appears to me that Bardsley might lose his place to Ferdinand when Ferdinand is back having not played on GW's 4 and 5 (Ferdninand did play) and being replaced by Ferdinand in GW 12 also, just little indicators I suppose,but don't want to have to replace Bardsley.
2 freebies this week (with Boateng and Albrighton illness/injury I am happy to hold on to both), any suggestions?
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/M/entryhist.mc?id=977
Team looks strong mate.
Albrighton is cheap enough not to need transferring out, he's a starter when fit.
Address Boateng and Elmo first if I was you, theri pitch time is uncertain to say the least.
Kolarov looked the business yesterday.
Hi Johnny,
I remember u were scouting for a new member of your attack, replacing Piquionne. Doubling on Bolton forwards seem like a not bad idea and if Mummy has to go, Konchesky is good option IMO. Plus Eve and Liv have ultimate H&A rotation.
What should i do??
Schwarzer (Carson)
A Cole- Coleman- Elmo- (Jara)- (Alcaraz)
Fab- VDV- Nani- Nzog- Albrighton
Torres- Tevez- Varney
a- Cole-> Kolarov/ Varney-> Elamander (4 point hit- 1.9 remaining)
b- Cole-> Vidic/ Alcaraz-> Kolarov (4 point hit .4 remaining)
c- Something completely different (if so what???)
Im thinking of rotating the same players (I have cole/elmo/salcido/konchesky/simpson - VDV/Ferguson/Fabregas/albrighton/Nani - Tevez/Drogba/Varney) - but thinking, Drogba -> Rooney, Varney->Elmander, or Salcido->Vidic, Drogba -> Elmander.. , or even salcido->Kolarov somewhere amidst a drogba/elmander swap.. It's pretty critical for me too cause I just went into the lead in my league 😮
I realise Chelsea haven't been playing well but Cole will still no doubt be the highest scoring defender.
Before you reomve a fit A.Cole I would look at Elmo, if he doesn't start tonight he needs to go first, Blackburn have a decent fixture run maybe Elmo to Samba/Jones?
Does anybody know anything about that 1 BP from Blackburn - Aston Villa game, given to Blackburn GK Brown, who wasn't even on the bench in that game?
Will this obvious mistake be corrected?
Its gone to jason roberts now mate
Thinking Drog > Elmander and then either Albrighton/Adam > Malouda to keep Chelsea coverage?
Any advice would be great thanks!
Dear FPL players,
Would you please stop buying Onuoha and Elmander. I am considering buying these players for this weekend but would like to wait until after the midweek games. While I can afford either even with a couple of price rises, I would rather have as much money as possible.
Yours sincerely
andy85wsm!
Hello!
Anyone have info on travelling man united squad, Näni expected to rest against rangers?
Propably no hope for malouda or anelka to play against zilina?
cheers!
I have no clue so far. I am hoping that Drogba gets another rest though, Anelka seems to have been doing ok in the champions league so play him with malouda and kalou please.
Little manager in me says "Carlo, play the best team you got, break the deadlock, get a goalfest and everything starts to go ok in premier league also...".
But unfortunately there will be propably very few first team players involved. Anelka and Drog rested for sturrige and kakuta or whoever.
Odemwingie->Elmander or Carroll?Which one is better?Will be a 4 pt. hit as I've already done Malouda->VdV.Will give me a front 3 of Drogs,Tevez and Elmander/Carroll.
For this weekend you would think Elmander would be better for the fixtures but Carroll has already proved he can play and score against the big teams!
Well, I thought that. But really the only team I may have not seen him scoring against so far was Arsenal. Let's be honest, Arsenal aren't the best defensively.
He does look good though, I have Caroll and am considering changing him to Elmander because of fixtures. Boltons team as a whole is on good form and so is Elmander.
If I was getting either in as a choice now, I'd definitely go Elmander.
Stam to Kolorov.
Maybe Drogba to Elmander but to be honest if you've been holding onto him like me for ages then i'd keep him now. Who are your other two strikers?
I've got a front 3 of Drogba, Carroll and Tevez.
And a defence of Stam, Cahill, Toure, Konchesky and Coleman.
Toure is going for Kolorov, but I'm tempted to double up on City this week and then shift out Toure the week after.
Gyan better make it 2nite was between Elmander and Gyan last week and went Gyan.
will rodallega's ban come into effect straight away or not?
Which defender from the bargain basement (3.9-4.1) do you think has the best chance of points over the next six gameweeks?
None of them really have great fixtures. I'd probably go with Simpson or maybe Foley. Jara and West Brom are hitting a bad run of form at the moment, but the fixtures aren't all that bad. Might be worth taking a punt on one of the Blackpool defenders in that price bracket, but really I think Foley or Simpson.
Although Foley got taken off early in the last Wolves game. Not sure if it was tactical or injury.
Cheers man its been foley in my head for weeks then he played 28 mins at the weekend casting a doubt over him. Have you got any idea what happened there?
Welcome to my first team alcaraz 🙁 bloody weak defence
going for
elmo - vidic
torres - rooney
boateng - kolarov (if boats still out next weekend)
Hits are bad but I can see it being worth it
What do you guys think of my going Brunt > Lee? Didn't see MOTD so don't really know how he did against Newcastle.
I want to get some Bolton cover in, and whilst I hate the idea of going for the third best option, I don't want to sell any of my strikers (Tevez, Drog ,Carroll) for Elmander / Davies.
Lee generally seems to be involved if they get goals, and surely he'll get a big haul at some point?
Saw the Chelsea highlights, Drogba should/could have scored 3 or 4 if not for a stellar performance from Foster!
He's looking back to his best and won't be leaving my team anytime soon.
+0.5.
Only 0.5 because I may get rid for Rooney next week 🙂
Yes, true - but what's going on in the Chelsea dressing room?
Ancelotti comments...
http://premierleagueupdates.blogspot.com/2010/11/carlo-ancelotti-not-in-control.html
Yes, they were raking over that on 5 Live yesterday ...
Well that is very true. I need to change it anyway 🙂
5.6 replacement for Elmo?
Already got Kolorov, Ivan, Konchesky, Jones...
Utd's Rafael is only 5.6.....
I like the Rafael option, the only problem is rotation. He looks like he's the number one choice now though so can see him getting plenty more game time and perhaps not being rested as much.
Otherwise you could just get another Sunderland defender as they are in good form (watch tonights game just incase), and have good fixtures.
Onuoha or Brambles.
or Cahill of Bolton?
Cahill, Bramble or Onuoha
Just get danny simpson and invest the rest in general team improvements. There is no need to spend money on an already decent defence
what would u say i need to improve? i like the rest of my team.
LOL
We all said the same thing ... 🙂
Your defence is way too expensive – just go for a really cheap 4 mil defender
I have to say that as a man utd fan who has had to put up with hearing chelsea fans go on and on about how bad of a state man utd are in due to the glazers that im rubbing my hands with glee that infact our 'owners' have always respected our manager, our history and have rightfully taken a backseat on team affairs unlike the dark overlord at stamford bridge who now seems determined to destroy his own club from within good days ahead for the 'real' best club in the premiership.
Well, they are certainly wary of Fergie - but I would avoid commenting too soon ...
my front 8 are
Fabs Cahill Jarvis Nzogbia Nani
Drogba Elmander Berbatov
i'll save my free transfer. then next week Berbatov_>Torres Drogba_>Tevez Jarvis_>VdV.
isn't it good plan? need advice
If you are taking a 4 point hit then you can always make one of those transfers this week i.e the berbatov one.
What do you reckon - Lee or Dempsey for the next few weeks?
Lee
MMW - how are you?
I'm sick and tired of not taking hits and following my gut. has not paid off for me at all. Jarvis/kDavies/Lee comes to mind in the last 2 weeks.
What you reckon: Emlo-->Kolarov or Ferg--->Lee. Or both for a 4pt hit?
BTW - watch with the hits?
Hits are good when they work out (but I guess that's obvious).
I took a 4 point hit for Zhirkov to Kolarov and Malouda to VDV which worked out for me. I was also considering Elmander in for Caroll which would have been 8 points but again would have worked out over all.
Sometimes you just get lucky 🙂
I think I'll be taking another 4 pointer this week!
Id say lee bolton are on form and have ok fixtures. I view dempsey as someone who plays well when fulham are on form but disappears quite often when theyre not and they currently look rather shaky after yesterdays performance
Not sure what change if any to make this week? My team is linked.
I've got 0.7 in the bank
Any suggestions?
Seems everyone is going the Elmander way, the good thing about him is he's even better away. Might be doing Drogs for him too
Team for Gameweek 15 people what do you think ? 😀
Foster, (Carson)
Coleman, Tamas, Konchesky, (Stearman), (Cech)
Bale, Nani, Van der Vaart, Cahill, (Ferguson)
Tevez, Rooney, Drogba
Appreciate the feedback, thanks in advance!!
nice, but a very expensive forward line there.......might want to upgrade one or two in the defence by towngrading drogba?
Jesus christ your forward line really is a good advertisement for the cheap rotatable defenders approach! I havent got the bottle to do it personally always like a couple of steady eddie mainstays at the back e.g vidic
Foster Hannenmen
Vidic, Bosingwa, Jara, Simpson, Coleman
Nani, Malouda, Brunt, Fabregas, Bale
Drogz, Carroll, Odemwingi
Anybody have any ideas were my priorities should be?
Im thinking Brunt to Lee, or Odemwingi/Carroll to Elmander
Odem > Elmander
Oh to be in the happy happy position of having a forward you can sell.
Want Elmander.
Have Drogba, Carroll and Tevez.
Who should I sell?
I have the same, if I make the switch it will be for Caroll.
+1
Ive got the same. I'm sitting tight. The bolton trian will derail soon. Surely?
I'm sure it will inalize.
But when it does I think that the wheels will be falling off at the back rather than at the front.
Its a huge call BH.
Carroll is a point scorign machine, but his fixtures are turning, Drogba has done sod all for weeks, has poor fixtures, but apparently was on fire against Brum. Tevez, erm, keep Tevez.
It seems like the perfect time to pile into Bolton forwards, but sometimes you have to let a bandwagon go. You can't have all the players all the time!
who should i bring in for terry? is he actually out for that long? if so, should i bring in another chelsea defender or look to another team
present defence is
vidic toure konchesky coleman terry
He could be out for months and Chelsea have been linked with lots of defenders for the January transfer window. But there's been no real news yet, as far as I know.
That's a pretty pricey defense, if you're going to get another Chelsea defender I'd get Ivanovic. If not maybe downgrade to a Sunderland defender like Onuoha or Brambles and use the money elsewhere?
Just noticed how bad Drogs points scoring is. I know he could have scored 3 at weekend, but he didnt. Time to ship him out???????
Go for it. Make my Day. Clint Eastwood? Or Arnie?
should i take a 4 points hit to do adam to VDV?
now having a midfield of fabs, malouda, nani, adam, zogbia
I'd rather go Malouda->Vdv myself
cashley for the chop!?!?
but for who?
I suppose if i tell you to hang on to him(he is your only chelsea coverage) and rather get rid of Rodalega for a bolton fwd you won't listen?
And no hits this week?
Ah well, i tried.
i cant do rod>elmander/davies as i dont have the funds. would need to free up money elsewhere and cashley seems worth getting rid of to free up some wonga!?!?
What's your defence right now?
If Gyan misses the game my h2h opponent has Bale coming on which means I now need Coleman to score 2 points.
Dunno which is better, Gyan playing and needing to outscore Coleman by 7 points or Bale with 7 points already bagged and Coleman needing 2.
Exciting! Or not?
Coleman should be good for a couple of points.
As our new guru Granville, what would you do with the Drogba, Tevez, Carroll dilema? One of them out for Elmander / Davies, or just bring in Lee to limit the damage?
I'm thinking Lee.
I'm no guru, but I'm keeping Drogba because I think it's unlikely that Tevez will outscore him from now on. Do you really think Citeh will be freescoring as they were yesterday? Very difficult one though, I think you need Carroll because of his value.
Well if Gyan doesn't play, I think that Sunderland would be a bit toothless. Coleman might have a good chance for a cleanie then.
Famous last words.
