Four games down, five to go. A fractured Gameweek rolled on with a convincing win for United at Wolves and a not-so emphatic performance and victory for top four hopefuls Newcastle. Our Members can dip into all the data from the weekend’s games and read on for our selection of the notable numbers so far. As usual, we’ve also thrown in our prediction for the Fantasy Premier League bonus points…
is it worth to get rid of silva for valencia?
Open Controls
I would wait till the Citeh game before making that decision.
Open Controls
i just did this, he will have risen in price by the city game and valencia is a must, as he was when he was fit, averaging much more than silva.
Also frees up funds. DO IT!Open ControlsIf he has Dempsey and Silva plays well. I would consider getting rid of Dempsey instead
Open Controls
Lost on last page sorry.
Krul Mignolet
Kompany Enrique Simpson Evans Kelly
Dempsey Bale Silva Sess Sigurdsson
Rooney RVP Ba
2 ft. 0.2 in bank
Theres the team. Should i squeeze in valencia for silva/demps or leave it? will keep sess for qpr at home… and not sure who to replace ba with… thoughts would be aprreciated.Open Controlsreplied on last page: ive just done silva to valencia, seems viable, city have too many attacking threats and valencia back to his ways.
Also on ba, either save the FT or a cheeky punt on suarez for the home game vs wigan. 🙂Open Controlscould do silva - tony then would have 10.2 to replace ba.
Open Controlsexact same as me- minus the FT. Keeping Ba one more week hoping he performs, hopefully a PK willcut his drought.
Open Controls
It really depends how Silva plays. If he has a blinder then get rid of Dempsey however if not then get rid of Silva. For Ba I'd get either Balo or Ade depending on who does better this week. Otherwise it might be an idea to keep Ba for another week.
Open Controls
I'm in the same boat, most ppl are suggesting hang onto Ba for another week or two and see if he comes good ... otherwise options are Cisse, Yakubu, Graham or if you're moving Silva to Valncia then you could afford Suarez?
Open ControlsCorrect - with the right cash you can get a decent third striker as well as Valenica (premium midfielder with great fixtures).
Good times ... shame everyone is doing it, like the twist back in the 60s.Open Controls
hey guys
qucik question
worth the 4pt hit for the following?
andrews>sig
yougn>valencia
al hasbi, vorm
cahill, skertel, simpson, kelly (ful), jevans
demps, andrews, yaya, bale, young
rvp, roon, suarez
not sure if its worth it but will have to play demps if i dont do andrews> sig...
any help would be good..Open Controlsvalencia yes, not sure about siggy a bit knee jerky. Everton are quite solid at the back as well so i would say hold off on the hit, but def get valencia in.
Open ControlsSiggy is hardly knee jerky his stats speak for themselves. He has been a consistent force in the PL since his arrival.
Open Controlsso does that mean a 4 pt hit is worth it??
Open Controls
Both will rise abit this week. Valencia covers the 4 point hit.
Open Controlsso is siggy worth the transfer in? Might do ReoCoker> siggy then... 😉
Open Controlswoudl u bench dempsey for next week??
Open Controls
I have had him for awhile. Put up with some 2 & some big scores. 🙂
Open ControlsTM, whats more worth the hit?
Ba>Suarez
OR
ReoCoker>SiggyOpen ControlsSiggy will be more popular now so he's the safer trade. If you didn't get Suarez for his double then it's abit of a waste now. Might be a sub this week with a knock.
Open Controls
cool thanks for the advise guys
hope it pays off!
took a hit for rooney alrady last week.. didnt pay off..Open ControlsJust takes time to pay off....
Open Controls
yeah its a bit knee jerky but he's been on my radar for a while so its not that knee jerky..
everton been playin a lot of games.. mite wait n see how they go against Arsenal.. if they hold them up ill wait it outOpen Controlssounds good. Id do valencia asap before he rises, and sleep on the idea of siggy.
Also, love the play on words in your name 😉 Iverson was one of my favorite ballers of all timeOpen Controlsahahaha yeah ray allen and iverson are some of my favourite players
ray rays' just lethal from down town..
yeah been watching the rises.. money not too much of a worry coz duno wat to do with the extra cash..
gota beef my defense..
for the long run who's defense looks good? i got livo, man u, chelsea
might get rid of cahill their fix aint that great..Open Controls
Dissapointed to keep Ba for 5 week...with 2FT, i've plan to do (4point hit):
Ba, McClean, Raylor > Yakubu, Valencia, McAuley.
then, plan to play 5midf everyweek (silva, bale, valencia, siggy, dempsey) worth to do it ?Open Controls5 every week is too much imo. Some only perform at home & away & your 3rd striker may have a better game.
Open Controls
Morning, afternoon, evening all,
Anyone have a go at predictions for baps for the Utd game yet?Open Controlsguessing 3 valencia, 2 chicarito, 1 welbeck?
Open ControlsHernandez/Valencia 3/2 between them, Evans 1.
Open Controlscheers, i hope its evans, didnt play 90 tho will that affect his chances?
Open ControlsWon't effect him too much. The goal helps alot. Will be close for the 1 pointer. Most have him so no big difference.
Open Controls
I guess this is a good week to sell a couple of duds in my team
Linde > Migs
Silva > Valencia
2FT
Of course I will wait till the last minute in terms of price rises etc but I imagine that will be in the next couple of daysOpen ControlsReally hope Silva does something against City, so I don't have the need to transfer him out. Not that I don't want to, but just more pressing changes to make at the moment.
He's usually good against decent teams, will be well rested and Chelsea could be tired (with three games in seven days - although many rested yesterday). Someone tell me I making sense. Even if it's just a little bit.......Open ControlsI am totally on the same page as you there. Either 1) he is rested so Siggy can come off the bench for me and it makes it obvious to sell him or 2) Plays well so I can deal to other areas of my team. I'd take either scenario just not another annoying 2 pointer and general hope that he might come good
Open Controlsso true.....him and Ba are on the cusp of the eject button. Ba really should be out already or now, but again, pressing matters elsewhere.
It's been so long since I sat back and thought that team will do for a couple of weeks, with no urgent transfers (with a couple of wish I could transfers just behind them). madness at the moment.
2 pts from Silva will be 2 little, 2 late....time 2 say goodbye.....
very much doubt he'll be rested, so need a decent performance.Open Controls
So would you like if Silva scores an own goal (since you mentioned: Really hope Silva does something AGAINST City)
Open Controls
How much do you guys think will be the cut-off for paddy's cup?
Open Controlswith just 50 on the board it's going to be difficult to get another 20-25 with just Enrique & RVP and not having bale or any tot player worries me if tot v stk match is not postponed
Open Controls
Depends on Bale, RVP & Silva/Man City defence.
I might struggle to hit 70. 🙁Open Controls
i am hoping mid 60.. I am currently on 30 and need liverpool to go mental to have a chance of reaching that.. don't think i will qualify tbh
Open Controls
This is a bit too far foward thinking I know, but in principal does it look ok or am I bringing too many spuds in?
GW30: Nani -> Valencia
GW31: Bogdan & Suarez -> Friedel & Drogba
GW32: Nothing
GW33: Skrtel & Dempsey -> Bale & KaboulOpen ControlsMeant to show my current squad also:
Migs, Bogdan
JEvans, Skrtel, Enrique, Caulker, Shotton
Nani, Dempsey, Walcott, Siggy, Surman
RVP, Rooney, Suarez
Bank 0,0m
2 free transfersOpen Controlsis drogba safe with torres double yesterday?
Open ControlsIs Torres safe with Torres double yesterday? Probably not!
Open Controls
you need more scum players from Woolwich 😀
Open ControlsHow many times have you followed up on these forward looking transfer plans?
Open Controls
Last qualifying spot in the Elite 63 @ 1593 points for GW2+. Mainly for top 10K players unless you had a bad GW1.
Open ControlsI think many of us will be caught in the dilemma of who to replace Ba with. As I have a couple of other transfers I need to make it is likely I will keep Ba for another week. I'd say there are 6 or 7 reasonable options for that 3rd striker spot as illustrated in the two articles last week. However are there any left field strikers out there that could become a serious option? Also is the possible spurs DGW something to consider. Spurs MAY even get two DGW's if the Stoke game gets called off.
Options
Ade
Balotelli
Yak
Odemwinge
Pog
Graham
Zamora?
Morrison?
Drogba?
Tevez?
Hernandez?
Sturridge?Open ControlsAnd Odwm under the radar for me ... if he starts scoring he'll be irresistable.
Open ControlsThat illustrates the point nicely. Trying to choose ONE player out of all these viable options could prove difficult. No real stand outs in the list, perhaps the left field option could be the right one otherwise Ade if he gets DGW's
Open Controls
What sort of sick & twisted socio-path would tweet racist comments after the events the other day, absolutely dispicable:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2012/mar/18/arrest-racist-remarks-twitter-fabrice-muambaOpen Controls
Sorry, only noticed your post now
Open Controls
Sick.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2116438/Student-arrested-racially-offensive-Tweet-Fabrice-Muambas-collapse-players-fans-support-critical-star.html
...His arrest is the latest proof that police are prepared to act against so-called internet trolls who put offensive material on social networking sites, often because they get a thrill out of provoking others.Open Controlsditto ... what a rotten egg hey!
Open ControlsSounds like the guy that posted on here Sat Eve that we are all a bunch of hypocrites and he like all Siggy owners just wants his Siggy points from the bench and is not interested in Muamba.
Wankr.Open ControlsSeriously, I didn't see it ...
There's always a handful that raise the eyebrows and make you wonder how anyone could be so selfish. Just glad the the VAST majority of folk on here are good-hearted sports lovers with some persecptive on life. Well played all ... carry on.Open ControlsThey are also much better at spelling then I.
Open Controls
Just read the full article. I never saw the game and there is some sobering stuff there. My thoughts and prayers are with Fabrice.
Open ControlsYeah, I read somewhere that Dr's cool down the patient's body temp to try and avoid/limit possible brain damage. As you can imagine he had no oxygen since he wasn't breathing a while.
Holding thumbs he pulls thru and walks out with now permanent damage.Open Controls*no
Open ControlsHaha ... most ppl are better spellers 😉
Open Controls
It would be tremendous this time next year to be contemplating whether to bring him in for a 4-point hit coz he's had an absolute belter of a season, and we can all say ... "remember this time last year..."
Open Controls
Planning to do Nani > Valencia and Beausejour > Walcott for a hit
The hit is not because of money. Just want to kick Beause out ASAP. Suggestions please, folks?Open Controlslol.. I know.. he is a solid guaranteed 2 pointer though! 😉
Open Controls
Anyone doing Young to Valencia?
am not sure if Young will start the next week? Thoughts? help please! Got one FT for the coming week.Open ControlsArghh ! relly hard to make decision when TorresMagic give advice...tempted to get Valencia atm..drop Silva or Dempsey to go through my plan ?
Open ControlsI suppose the main Q this week will be:
Silva Or Dempsey --> Valencia and a close 2nd...What to do with Ba?Open Controls
my answers:
ba to the yak (or maybe cisse if i change my mind) and then im upgrading sess to valencia for a hit 😀Open ControlsYeah, I don't like the position Ba is playing with Cisse(new) on the pitch. Ba looked really dangerous after Cisse went off.
I'm not interested in Yak. Don't like his fixtures over the short term. I've got a couple of options and 2 free trades. Just don't know what to do!Open Controlshe's got bolton and west brom in the next three. then i'll probably either be getting rid of odemwingie or cisse or somewhere around that price range or ill just keep and bench him sometimes. would have a mf five of silva, bale, dempsey, valencia, siggy so would be fine benching yak if he has a tough fixture
Open Controls
already done silva>valencia, thinking of getting in gerrard for dempsey temporarily, thoughts?
Open Controls
got gerrard in me team without a doubt. just for Wigan game tho 😀
Open Controlsthats what im thinking, then back to dempsey. Not sure if its worth the 4pt hit though..
Either him or siggy in for a hit, or just hold off.Open ControlsGerrard could be a gang-buster over the next 4-5 weeks ... and most ppl will steer clear of him for a while because of his history with injury. The brave could prosper, well and truly.
Open Controls
I have Saurez so Gerrard would be overkill for me. However if you don't I would take the punt
Open Controls
I'm on WC and Dempsey will be out of my team this week
MF will be Bale, Walcott, Siggy, Valencia, MccleanOpen Controls
Anyone had a go at the Newcastle baps yet? Krul stand a chance of anything?
Open Controlsi hope so 😀 got a feeling that simpson might get it tho 😀
Open ControlsWilliamson more likely than Simpson from comments on here.
Open ControlsI doubled up. Simpson + Krul. 😀
I'm worried about Krul holding his leg after taking a goal kick...
😕Open Controls
mybe Ba > Odem , Silva > Valencia...
Open Controls
Young >> Valencia to fund for Moses >>> Sess... good moves???
Open Controls1st yes, 2nd, no. Sess has bad fixtures after next week
Open Controls
Which cheapo defender has good fixtures for the next few weeks?
Have Evans, BAE, Caulker, Cahill and want to replace the dud that is Kelly (Fulham).
Was thinking Kelly (Liverpool) but reckon he's out when AJ returns. Anyone else. Can possibly add a further 1.0 to his price, so upto say 5.0......Open ControlsAJ?
Open Controlsledley king could be a cheeky punt if he stays healthy, very cheap option into spurs defence and always starts when healthy!
Open ControlsMcAulley, Shawcross, Turner, Bardsley, Simpson ... all viable contenders.
Kelly is a right spud, promised to deliver the world ... turned up with an atlas.Open Controlsspud, nice. a king edward at that. Bardsley crossed the mind, was great last season, but aren't their fixtures a bit pants after next week. Can't do Stoke. Done Simpson on and off all season with Raylor. McAuley looks all right, but want to bring in Odem soon and two from West brom would jst seem wrong.
Cheers test.......oh I see what you've done there...plumbs all round.Open Controls
Olsson does good points, when he's not collecting reds, for 4.6m.
Kelly > Olsson for me GW30.Open Controlser, I mean GW31 😳 after the toon game...
Open Controls
Dempsey+ Henderson > Valencia + ???.
Thnx. 🙂Open ControlsTo hit or not to hit, that is the question,
tis nobler in the mind to geet siggy,
or suffer the slings and arrows of gerrard.
So basically:
Demps>Gerrard
OR
ReoCoker>Siggy
for a hit. Would wanna bring back demps after one week tho, and also have to replace ba...Open ControlsNot worth taking Dempsey out for one week me thinks.
Open ControlsWhat trade have yo done?
Open Controls
Ba/Walters-->Graham/Val..for free...would leave me with:
Vorm
Enrigue/Evans/Shotton
Bale/Val/Silva/Mclean
Rvp/graham/Rooney ...1.6m cash for Demsey/Silva to Mata/Lamps later...
Bench: krul/dempsey/kelly/simpson
No Siggy though....Open Controls
Will Krul get bonus pts this week??
Open ControlsAny Newcastle fans around? What was the basic formation of Newcastle in the last game and what is the likely formation/team from now on. Was HBA any good?
Open Controls
How can I remove Holt and Morrison? (Have to FTS)
Morrison/Dempsey/Siggy/Valencia/Bale
RVP/Rooney/Holt
7.1 in the bank.
Even though I like the idea of Norwich playing Wolves, I can't make myself put Morrison in my starting 11 anyways because the idea of him getting a 20 min cameo, haunts me tbh...Open ControlsSilva>Gerrard for a 4 pt hit
yaay or nay?Open Controlssilva> valencia safer imo
Open ControlsAlready did demps>valencia (after 75' of the match :D)
Open Controls
thinking the very same....depends if he plays, for how long and how he plays this week against QPR. If he's not on or comes off early (without injury) then I'm all in. If he plays full 90, gets injured or play average, then I'm probably out. make sense?
Hope Adam plays vs QPR, leaving Gerrard fresh for a couple vs wigan....Open ControlsSame here 😀
a goal sub'd without injury would be niceOpen Controls
What's the average around here? I'm on 46 after subs/Vc with 4 to play, might still lose my europa tie at home. 😡
Open Controls46 is plenty. How are you Mr "He should" Nani?
Open ControlsSaid it earlier as well (Sat evening) nani not playing was a massive blow, but at least I got siggy's points 😀 Every cloud and all that, how are you TM? 🙂 Australia lost surprisingly. What's the cut off for the FPL Open?
Open ControlsPerhaps next time you will think about your advice. It's all good. I am ok, had a day off from work. Well done to the WI, weather helped etc.
FPL Open borderline.
