FPL Gameweek 28: Analysis of the key underlying stats

Gtg

They've gone from 433 with Traore on the right of the front 3 to 442 and Jimenez and Jota are preferred as the front 2. Im a Traore owner and im concerned over his EPL gametime. He normally comes on for 20ish minutes but it's not enough for me to keep

He plays in Europe as that is seen as a chance to rest others

Formation change occurred after he got injured, is that a result of injury or other reasons? I don´t know. But they used that formation with success last year, ad it proved to be good vs Norwich.

Seemed to change formation yesterday too, went from 3-5-2 to 3-4-3 after a substitution, then reverted back to 3-5-2 after Adama went off.

Just speculation but Jonny is out, Vinaigre just recently back and looked not matchfit, so it could be a decent chance of Doherty moved to left which then might mean Adama on right wing back. As owner i would gladly take that over say a a 20 minute sub app.

See below.

Jimmy and Jota both rested, suggests they will go back to 3-5-2 on the weekend.
Not convinced he starts at all...

Sorry but rubbish friday trivia

Mane

B

B

Save

Save, 10 isn't bad.

Popular transfer today.

Damage limitation week! 😎

Worried also

I've got 11 players and no ft used, just unlucky sometimes.

Easiest fix is a GK that plays this week and GW31.

I "think" today but might be wrong

The sooner the better for everyone.

Go traore imo

Not much left. JWP maybe.

McNeil

Jorginho?

Slim pickings, friend...Moutinho?

Snodgrass maybe. I don't think anyone less than $5.9 is better than Adama though to be fair

Go 6 with Barnes

Traore to Bruno if you can

A out of those 2

Maddison is tempting and has great fixtures coming up, leaning towards yes for now....but depends on the long term outlook for your team

think i would just play cantwell in that case, Burnley might get a cs but Norwich can score against a non Ndidi Leicester

I’d roll. No point having cantwell if you won’t play him in weeks like this

B

I have a very similar decision. I'm rolling in the hope that Traore gets something. After the cup matches we'll be in a better position to know how to approach GW31 etc

Seeing as you have Barnes already probably roll FT

Keep. I’d maybe play aurier or lascelles over traore

Gotta love them, don't ya? 🙂

Same here. My triple wolves and double burnley looked great last weekbut awful this week. On six players for GW31 so this is the week I’m sacrificing for long term gain (hopefully)

Lose aguero or auba for vardy and use a hit to ride the wave 🙂

If no DGW29 news, WC or a hit or 2.
It's a very big mess tbh.

Pray for a dgw29 announcement pre deadline. Don’t do anything until the last minute. If no dgw29 I can’t see the point in aguero given blanks/ benching

a little bit smaller this one , but memory is good. But actually that blank with King and Lukaku some years back was even better, because King was lowly owned, not everyone had Lukaku and Everton kept a cs and i had double def. Average was something like 15 points and i got 76.

I'd sell Kelly for Taylor and Grealish as planned. (unless you're planning for GW31 when the 2FT will be very useful). Martial might play but you can wait a week if not.

If your Using your FH in 31 surely you want to concentrate on bringing players who have DGWs after?

I’d be keeping Aubamayang if I had him.

B looks ok to get Robbo.
You have too much Spurs imo.

You still have a wildcard?

Good move

Not at all - they have good fixtures. They might even assist each other and you'd get two lots of points for one goal.

without context a bit difficult to give sound advice but if yuo think Barnes is better than Grealish for some weeks and not afraid of buying back if say he got a game in 31, then i would say yes. And if you don´t field 11 players if not.

I quite fancy Burnley (I don't own) to keep a clean sheet, but I have no choice to play Boly and Traore to get 11. It's close.

Toss a coin.

luxury!

not sure, i tend to play the one i feel got the most potential and i see cs chances as decent for both, so Boly

Both Newcastle and Spurs looks toothless in attack, the pro for Taylor is home i guess. Burnley home usually tight and both teams lives ok with a draw, but both teams will also see this one as a proper chance of getting safe (Burnley) or jump very close to safety (Newcastle) if they win, as former then would have 40 and that should be enough while Newcastle will have 34 which will then only need 5-6 points in the remaining fixtures.

Wolves played in Barcelona last night but not with high intensity and rested a lot of players and Spurs look a bit lost in attack. Spurs are also defending set pieces badly.

Go with your gut

oof!

I would bring in Vardy and captain.

No.

Pope for GW31. Kasper for a (probable) double at some later stage.

Pope

I hope so, as im looking to bring him today, seems to me more reliable than Barnes
