The FPL line-up lessons we learned from Gameweek 6

We take our regular look back at the Premier League line-ups from the weekend just gone, analysing the systems and personnel used by the 20 top-flight clubs and seeing what lessons could be learned ahead of Gameweek 7.

As was the case last week, we are harnessing the use of the average position maps in our Members’ Area and highlighting some of the key stats from each game.

The figures in brackets given after each player name in the article below correspond to the numbered shirts in the position maps.

    Who will get the most points of Wilson (WHU) or Abraham (BHA) this week?

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Wouldn't take that hit

    2. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Tammy but could go either way.

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I will never forget selling Wilson in the season Bournemouth got promoted before a game against West Ham.

      Wilson scored a hatrick.

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        This

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      You can save

    2. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yep G2g

    3. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Save

    4. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Change Button and use BB (Smile)

  3. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    A) chicken fried rice
    B) butter chicken

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Probably B

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Butter chicken

    3. ENZO SZN™
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Butter chicken fried rice.

    4. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      A with some egg in it

    5. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      B by far

  4. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Chelsea 3rd worst defence in the League, not one clean sheet and Tomori a good option?

    Trap.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Prefer butter chicken

    2. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yep.
      A bit cheaper and it becomes a bargain. Why not get a reliant Robin instead of a Porsche and enter Le Mans.

    3. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Sorry, not a good option.

  5. drughi
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    TV 100.6 and overall rank 1 mil, worse start since I started playing in 09/10 hopefully my patience will give me something back. But what wc team can I really have with that low TV.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Go rogue

      1. drughi
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        which means ?

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Follow a different, less trodden path

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      If I were you I would go ultra attack on WC, have a look at which players are rising to chase TV.

      1. drughi
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah as I said patience is often the key in this game but getting a bit worried, plan is wildcard ahead of gw 9. Hopefully some injuries and new prospects will emerge

    3. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Look at top 10k ownership...then bet against it

      Son, Auba, Ota for starters

      1. drughi
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Plan is wildcard gw 9 but are those players not highly owned ?

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          no....see below...click on tabs at top for ownership and combos

            cheers

      2. The Knights Template
        • 10 Years

        This

      3. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Bobby F
        Wilson
        Richarlison/Siggy

      4. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        All 3 should be top 3 choices. Firmino also.

    4. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      What’s the SV of your team?

    5. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Bet you could still have KDB Mane Son Abraham TAA and some cheaper decent picks with them.
      That's how I would approach it and hope the cheaper alternative to Salah Sterling Kun and Auba deliver.

      1. drughi
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        the thing is I have alot of faith in salah and sterling but yeah I guess I need to do something

        1. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Captaincy headache. Unless you get lucky with KDB as vice and Lund on the bench.

    6. The Quad
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I wouldn’t waste your wildcard now, as you said you’ll only get .6 above the 100m budget. Just play aggressive on next week with 2-3 transfers for price rises and use wildcard over international break.

  6. barracuda
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Morning fellas, would drop VVD for TAA for a hit?

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Not for a hit

      1. barracuda
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Watch TAA getting 12, 6 for VVD this GW

        1. THFC4LIFE
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I fancy Shef to score

          1. Weasel Boy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            This

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Only if you're drinking

  7. InvertedWinger

    Pope (Button)
    TAA Otamendi Soyuncu (Tomori Lundstram)
    Sterling KDB Son Mount (Cantwell)
    Tammy Pukki Wilson

    1.6 itb and on wildcard. Good to go?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      Yep, nice team

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Lovely team, Wilson to Vardy gw9?

    3. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      wilson to firmino ?

    4. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Nice team. Shows what I can have if I dropped Mane for Mount until the fixtures turn.

  8. barracuda
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Second/last chance, would you drop Digne for TAA for a hit? WC in tact

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      yeah

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

  10. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Is a sale value of 100.9m good or bad at this point?

    1. mookie
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Probably good, mine is 100,6m.

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks

    2. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Does not matter. SV the key. Mine 102.3 but not important now

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Mine is 100.2 so I beat you for terrible SV.

  11. MaRooney 5
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Any worth a hit:

    Ryan, Button
    Digne, Lundy, Rico, Robbo, Zinch
    Hayden, KDB, McGinn, Salah, Sterling
    Greenwod, Tammy, Pukki?

    2.0m ITB

    Thanks in advance!

    1. mookie
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Don't think so

    2. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Digne Rico Robbo Zich could go for various reasons.

  12. SomeoneKnows
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Best midfielder that costs 6.9 max to own for the next 2-3 weeks (until Maddison is fit) is McGinn correct?

  13. taylormccormack
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    GTG Wildcard?

    Pope
    VVD - Otamendi - Soyuncu (lundstram, Rico)
    KDB - Salah - Son - Mount (Cantwell)
    Abraham - Firmino - Pukki

    0.0itb, would love to get either Robertson or TAA, and upgrade Cantwell. Best ways to do that?

  14. Licious Lizard
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    I know it’s probably a bit of extra work for you, but I wanted to say that I appreciate you putting the players’ shirt numbers in brackets with the Line-up lessons average positions!

    Also, why can’t you see who posted the articles (at least on mobile)?

  15. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    GTG?

    Ryan
    Ota VVD Lowton
    Sterling Salah McGinn Cantwell
