Paul With time to reflect on the first three Gameweeks of the new season, we roll out the first of a two-part series of Members articles. Focussing on overall team stats, we analyse the performances in front of goal and at the back so far, slicing up the key data in order to ascertain the most impressive performers to date:
Using the featured table in conjunction with the Goal Threat table under Team Stats in the Members section, we turn our attentions to attacking potential thus far:
Which one would you choose?
Bale or Hazard or Silva.
Hazard > Bale > Silva
Baines + michu
Dyer, but don't do it yet.
Let's see if there's any update on that new Swansea winger. Whether or not he'll start (he mostly will), and in whose place.
Pienaar
Dyer of course
Dyer.
Dyer
at the bottom of ligue 1despite having a better overall score than half of the league 🙁
ouch! that's rough mate. don't worry though you'll shoot up in a few weeks 😉
do you think you can help us a bit? in order to make it awesome and have league reviews, order of valor, presser awards, etc we need a some more helpers/contributors!
sure. i read JK's review the other day and thought i could give it a try for ligue 1.
Not sure i will be able to do it every week though.
ok great!
can you give me an email so jk and I can contact you if need be?
and we were thinking of doing monthly league reviews most likely. think that would work for you?
yeah. Im not the best writer around but i can manage that. thanks for the opportunity!
khizer123@hotmail.com
*waves hand*
😀
think you could devote a bit of time to the effort and give us a hand?
For what?
see just above. if you email me/jk we can give you more details
Hmmm, how much time would it take? I'm pretty busy this semester at uni so can't afford too much time.
I've got 2 weeks off after this week so I can certainly help then.
it could be pretty short. two roles you could take are:
a) presser award:
you get a league (not your own) and you read all the pressers for it and then simply email jk and I your 1, 2, 3 and perhaps runner up choices for your fav pressers. we haven't decided if we are going to do this once per gw or once every other gw or once per month yet but either way should be pretty easy
b) order of valor. take a league and report to jk and I the players worthy of valor award each gw. if you can do a full writeup thats great! if not you can just email us who should get it and what player and we can do the writeup
either of those appeal to you?
b appeals more to me. Have you got any examples etc, but I'll happily give it a go after this week.
alright great i'll put you down for that. can I have your email so JK or I can email you more details later?
ummm were you around during the euros? same as the awards light knight and isacki did.
heres a link to the rules and guidelines: http://uefaffs.weebly.com/7/post/2012/06/the-order-of-extreme-valour.html
and some order of valor posts can be found here:
http://uefaffs.weebly.com/the-order-of-extreme-valour.html
and here: http://uefacouncil.wordpress.com/category/international/euro-2012/
Will do.
I should be able to do write-ups at least for the next couple of GWs.
Die Wölfe!
huh??
you up for some sort of a contributor role? we need all the help we can get! and theres a few jobs that are pretty simple
That's my club's motto!
Anyway, I'm pretty swamped at work atm. Not been online during the week at all. But I can help after a couple of weeks for sure.
Hey Nitin, thanks for your help re the grav last week. Loaded up fine. In terms of forwards, would you go with Fletcher, Graham or Lambert?
Went with Graham from the start - hurt me real bad. So, I don't think I'll continue with him. Still tossing up between the other two tbh. I'm leaning towards Lambert(and McClean in mid) though.
ahh i gotcha! what's it mean though?
alright no worries. ok great :D. itd be a season commitment hopefully (or at least til gw 19) but some of the jobs are pretty simple (see my comments/replies above)
The Wolfs!
I could take up one of those, I think. Not sure if I'll be ab;e to devote much time this week, though. Patrick and Udiot have my email address.
RE: dyer or pienaar
ON WC
have baines and michu too atm.
Nolan
+1.
Dyer is in very good form.. But Pienaar will share the risk when Swansea missed to fire.
Pienaar.. Swan good fixtures will soon end.
Haha especially when they meet Everton
tricky call...Dyer certainly much more involved offensively under Laudrop but Pienaar would appear to be just as involved at Everton...both very talented players, I think I'd plump for Pienaar, but if you wanted to save some cash for re-balancing then I wouldn't argue with Dyer...
HBA?
I thought that would be the case.
Morning Chaps
anybody got a link to the top 20 total fpl points scorers from last year? (and the year before if possible) I thought Chris Glover did an article covering this, but I can't seem to find it...
Thoughts on my FCL team??
Sirigu
Alba Rafael Gibbs
Santi Pirlo Hazard Shirokov
Messi Ronaldo Pato
Subs: Malafeev Vida Maicon Babel (0.0 in the bank)
Isn't Pato injured?
And Maicon will get rotated
Sirigu & Beto would work better.
That may well be the other Maicon. The cheap bench strategy is even less sensible in the UCL format because manager subs means you always want some good options to bring off the bench on day 2...
I wouldn't put it past Fergie to rest Rafael and play Smalling or even Valencia at RB in Europe.
Nolan or McClean fellas considering their fixtures?
Nolan has lovely fixtures and good form. Ive gone for Nolan this week
Tks. Nolan was on my initial draft and I totally agree with your comments. McClean seems expensive considering he's not really sprung into life yet and has worse fixtures. So are you guys confident Nolan can maintain his level of form without Carroll?
trying to pick a starting team, cant decide on 2 positions. who would u start?:
Def: Boyce (mun) or Gorkks (TOT)
Mid: Guthrie (TOT) or Nolan (nor)
Both mids if possible.
Boyce is a mid too 😉
😛 🙂
hehe...get Boyce and Baines and you could play 'seven' mids every week 🙂 a 1-7-2 formation anybody?
I'd personally prefer Johnson or Fletcher from Sunderland, but of the two I'd take McClean
Hey guys, I have 8m to spend on a striker, any ideas?
Cheers
Any update on the Pienaar injury lads? You reckon he'll be fit for this GW? Have McClean waiting in the wings in case he doesn't make it, though he wouldn't be my first choice!
Nolan Dyer Michu Yaya Dyer
RVP Petric Tevez
Who to bench this week?
Two Dyers?
Kieron Dyer.
...should be removed pronto!
Sorry typo
Nolan Dyer Michu Yaya Hazard
RVP Petric Tevez
Who to bench this week?
Well yeah, K Dyer easily
Controversial, but I'd probably say Yaya you know. A tall defence, solid at home, don't give too much away, I don't think he'll be as productive as last year. See last season's 1-1 for example. How tight was that? All your other midfielders have better chances of producing the goods
He did score against Stoke away last year though...in that 1-1 draw.
My bad, sorry. Overlooked! Then Dyer - possible rotation risk
He was only productive in City's last few games of the season. he's playing class at the moment. Very few midfielders picking up as many FF points as him and still nicely priced.
What do you think about Yaya's fixtures though? Greenie is there anywhere other than here I can show you my wild card team? Want your opinion.
Still wildcarding.
Surfer Rosa -
Foster
Zabaleta, Barnett, Cuellar
Toure, Hazard, Fellaini, Michu, Johnson
Tevez, Van Persie
Begovic, Lambert, Gorkss, Santon
0.3m in the bank.
All advice welcome 🙂
? Benching him cos I think mid fielders will do better.
Should i play a 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 with Messi and Ronaldo upfront?
when is the first CL game?
18 Sept Real Madrid v Man C being the highlight
Would you guys do Zab > Mertesacker for a hit this week to catch the price rise or just wait till next week
No, don't do that. I'm not sure if Mertesacker will start too much now. Koscielny is back, and Vermaelen can't be rested.
Anyone got any awesome youtube videos I should check out?
I really am spoiling you now... 😉

Hi all
Could you please RMWCT and comment?
Foster, gazza
Baines, Jenkinson, Demel, Gorkks, Cuellar
Hazard, Cazorla, Michu, Yaya Toure, Guthrie
Tevez, RVP, Fletcher
Note that I’ll play foster every week and will transfer jenkinson once Sagna is back.
Thank you
Guys, just watching The Big Match on ITV4. Looks like Brighton's Jimmy Case is playing pushed far up the pitch, almost like a Trequarista. Got an assist too! Worth a punt as my cheap midfielder?
Steve Gatting got another goal from defence as well, bandwagon?
In other news, I got 5 score draws on the pools...so close to that 3rd dividend.
Any idea when the postponed Sunderland v Reading game is going to be played?
3-4-3 or 3-5-2 formation this season ?
I think 3-4-3 are better, because Torres can do good progres as only nailed on striker close to Hazard.
I think 3-4-3 because there are cheaper options with better potential for the third striker spot. However, the tendency towards team playing a player 'in the hole' has increased the value of some midfielders (e.g. Cazorla, Michu etc...). It might also have reduced the value of some forwards but I struggle to think of an example except, perhaps, Rooney.
Bertrand (4.5) a cheap and viable way of getting into the Chelski defence?
At 4.5 and OOP he's worth a shot but he's unlikely to be a consistent starter so you run the risk of a fair few 1 pointers...
Way too risky, you could be wasting money on a non-playing defender or even worse you could be playing him and he'll make a 1 point cameo, he won't start much in Chelsea's defence, RDM put him in midfield but they have so many options in midfield that you can't see him doing that all the time. Either way he won't be playing 90 minutes week in week out.
OK thanks boys, in which case how about Rangel or S. Taylor? I am a bit wary about Taylor's next game week and so many injury doubts over his defensive colleagues
thoughts on having Hazard & Lampard? No Torres.
If lampard gets enough gametime.
Morning all.
Which approach would people prefer?
A.
Jaask, begovic,
Baines, s. Taylor, Cuellar, demel, clyne
Hazard, HBA, peinaar, Michu, carzola
Tevez, Rvp (pog)
B.
Jaask, begovic,
Baines, s. Taylor, Cuellar, demel, clyne
Hazard, HBA, carzola, Michu, Guthrie
Tevez, Rvp fletcher
Why is everyone so sure Mertesacker will lose his place? 3 straight clean sheets - two with the third string GK - say he's playing well.
I put it down to his having really improved his footwork over the summer...

Wegner prefers Koscielny over Mertesacker. I think he will soon be reinstated in the CD alongside Vermaelen.
