With the Gameweek completed by a classic Anfield tussle, it’s time for our members to scan some of the key statistics from the weekend matches to help identify the form and trends that could help shape future Fantasy selections…
Parm
1) Are you calmer and moved away from wc now?
2) Have you sold Adel yet, and for who?Open Controlsbetter hurry up before he goes down
I'd recommend McClean (I refuse you permission to have AJ :wink:) I would say Jarvis, but the best way to get him is to upgrade Noble (that's my plan anyway). Him or Pienaar should be the one you go for IMOOpen Controls
Now for the 8pt hit move to get rid of Bastard Cazorla 🙁 Will it be Pienaar, Michu, HBA or Duff then...
And Podge..I expect an answer for keeping me up thinking about another bloody transfer on a Sunday night 😉

Please can somebody tell me that keeping Bale for this week instead of transferring in Hazard is the right thing to do, then maybe Hazard the week after?
Open ControlsI know Hazard isn't playing.... he is becoming more expensive by the day. I can play Bale or get Hazard cheaper than when he rises and bench him for 1 week.

Open Controlsthanks for the comment 1966.

Keep Bale - You've already missed the Hazard train so get him gw4 and think of him as a 10.0 player since he's worth it. I got him at 9.5 so I figure it's worth it to bench him to keep the rise.
Open Controls
Fill in the blank(That was/is Taarabt) for £6.8m.
Mignolet, Jaaskelainen;
Baines, Rafael, Hughes, Fabio, Clyne;
Michu, Bale, _______, Noble, Maloney;
Van Persie, Torres, Tevez.
THANK YOU 😀 😛Open ControlsPienaar or McClean
Don't get Fellaini, read the scout tweet on him, he won't play that role every week. Pienaar is a better optionOpen Controls
are holland playing belgium by any chance during the int break?
not wishing injury but wouldn't it just be hilarious from a fantasy football view if rvp and hazard both went into a 50/50 and ended up getting injured?Open Controls
Not after I play my WC this week !
Open Controls
Long term (at least a month):
A) Rafael + Boyce
B) Gibbs + Ridgewell

I'd love to have some kind of feature whereby you can pick a future gameweek XI from your current squad. It would look and behave similarly to when you pick your team team for next week on the fpl website, except it would have gwX's fixture next to the players names. I know you can sort of do this in your head with the ticker and whatnot anyway, but it would just help visualise your squad a few gameweeks down the line. This doesn't already exist does it?
Open ControlsThinking the exact same thing lol !
It would help so much
The buzz you get when you see your striker playing QPR (H)Open Controls
I think it does. It's called "using your brain" 😉
Open Controls
Going to buy Williams for Cole with free transfer this week.
Anyone think either of these are worth a 4 point hit?
Dembele -> Yaya
Bent -> BaOpen Controls
Anyone watch the Spurs match? How did Bale look. Was he threatening, was he high up the pitch, did he create changes, did he have any shots, was he on any set piece…
Just wondering if I should hang on for next week or take a 4 point hit to Kagawa or YayaOpen Controlsnot what I asked Freshy. I want to know how he played at home and where he played. I want to make a decision about this player and now, not wait around weeks while he plays 90 minutes a game and gets me 2 points at a time...
Open Controls
His stats were actually promising. 5 attempts and most touches in pen area than any mid
Open Controls
Makes me feel better keeping him instead of wild carding and changing him for Hazard.
Open Controls
His stats compared to other cheaper mids are very average
With Arry bale was allowed to be a bit more central and avbs taking a while to get going with this team
Nolan is a better prospect than bale ATM ..Open ControlsHe looked good Hella - beat his man several times to get good crosses into the box. Problem was no one but Defoe was there to get them so nothing ever came of it.
Open Controls
I'm playing the wildcard tonight before the rises. This is what I have so far:
Vorm Jussi
Raf Ivan Cuellar Hangeland Zab
Dyer Yaya Guthrie Bale Pienaar
Tevez RVP Graham
0.4 in the bank to change Bale to Hazzard after GW3.
Well balanced? any recommendations?Open Controls
I don't like the criticism of 'generic teams'
If you miss the boat this early in the season then it is very difficult to make up ground (Rooney and Aguero early last season, then the RVP show)Open ControlsAs far as I can see there's only 2 "must haves" in the game at the moment. Hazard after the int break and Tevez.
Michu won't keep getting returns as he has been and if you omit RVP you can do so much more with the rest of your team.Open ControlsWith fixtures as they are coupled with Swansea's form, I can't see the Michu returns dropping
Open Controls
I chickened out of using my WC and just did Torres to RVP. If N'Zogbia keeps getting sold this fast, I'm going to swap him for Pienaar to avoid losing another 0.1m.
Open Controlsif i was you i would have got rid of nzogbia first
Open Controls
In terms of points, how much is a WC worth?
I would argue if used wisely, 100 points. It allows for planning of starting 11 and allows one to play the fixtures. Furthermore it can be used to snap up a juicy C for a DGW.Open Controlsif you wildcard and you don't get 60+ first gw you should be disappointed
Open Controls
Impossible question to ask.
But if you think a wildcard is worth 100 points, then why not make 15 transfers every week to change your entire squad (effectively playing a wildcard). You'd still be 44 points up if your '100 point' logic is correct. See how it works.
Wildcards = vastly overrated.Open ControlsSomeone's done poorly with his wildcards in the past.
Open Controls
I have used my wildcard very early on in the past few seasons and have found them to be "overrated" as you put. However, I saw many use it for a big DGW last season and then it proved to be extremely effective. This is why I'm keeping mine in reserve, the later the better as things become clear.
Open Controls
I agree, that's why I used it yesterday. Didn't want it tempting me every week.....
Open ControlsI'm playing mine next week, and doubt I'll make too many changes to my squad. Will keep all the favourite likes RVP, Tevez, Hazard, Michu, and probably spend most of the time sorting out a defence that works well with the fixtures until the January wildcard.
Open Controls
Anyone have any idea who will play more this season out of
Leon Barnett or Ryan Bennett?
Bennett played the 90 first GW and Barnett played this GW, I've currently got Barnett as my 5th defender but with Ivan not playing and Clarke suspended I'm not sure if I can field 3 defenders for the upcoming GW? really don't like wasting transfers on defenders (especially 4.0 ones)Open Controls
Just play Barnett in your starting 11 anyway - if he doesn't get game time then you get 0 pts for him, not the end of the world imo. Use transfer upfront or save it.
Open Controls
so i see a lot more ppl have gone demel over mccartney? why is this? wasn't mccartney west hams player of the year last season?
Open ControlsI believed the people who said McCartney was a rotation risk more than I believed the people who said Demel was. I personally had no idea...
Open Controls
anybody got any details on clichy's paternity leave and wether he will be back next week?
Open Controls
Has anyone on here used their wildcard yet?
Open Controls
me, worked a treat. got 90 points this week
Open ControlsJust used it myself. Might not be the wisest decision, but it's done now.
Open Controls
Cazorla is a bust and people will keep hold for far too long....
Open Controlsbest 7.0 mil or below striker for next gw?
Open ControlsPfft. I hope this team looks sound because I'm about to spent 8pts on it 🙂
Vorm (Fed)
S Taylor - Rafael - Zaba - Clyne
Nasri - Michu - Noble
RVP - Tevez - Graham
Subs: Hazard, Guthrie, Nelsen
(Caz, Rooney, Cole -> S Taylor, Michu, RVP)Open ControlsHere goes nothing... http://i.imgur.com/Qxf31.png
Open Controls
Who would you go for?
Graham or Ba?Open ControlsAnyone remember Stoke v Aston Villa last season on tv? Worst game I've ever seen. Today's Stoke encounter comes close. Awful to watch but they get the results...
Open Controls
Torres -> RVP
but to do so I need to sacrifies on of my expensive midfield (Cazorla, Bale, Nasri). Which one need to go for Pienaar?Open ControlsWhy look so happy when you are bench fodder?
Open ControlsCazorla
Open ControlsHa, subtly done...
Nice score 🙂Open Controls
Nasri > Pienaar
Bale and Cazorla more nailed on although they are yet to produce the goods points wise (stats suggest big points haul is not far away for both)Open ControlsCheers for all input.
Will toss coin between Cazorla & Nasri!!Open Controls
Off to bed. Would love to build a WC-less (WC = FF Buffoon of the highest kind) 100 man league.
The code is 149644-462167 should you decide you like your mince pies with a little bit of spice on them!Open ControlsCheers! If you WC then you should not be allowed a FF account imo...
Open Controls
URGENT.
A) Pienaar (no Everton cover)
B) Michu (got Graham & Vorm)
C) HBA (no New cover)
Ta!Open Controls
