Arsenal’s battling performance at the Etithad and a dramatic second-half turnaround at the Lane bring Gameweek 5 to a close. Our members can now let the dust settle on their Fantasy scores before gorging on all the stats from all the weekend’s matches, or just read on for the numbers that piqued our interest…
Thoughts on these moves for next week? Jenkinson & Hazard > G.Johnson & Fellaini. Would leave me with the following team for GW6 (2 free transfers, 0.9m in the BANK):
Begovic(SWA)
Rafael(TOT) Baines(SOT) Johnson(nor)
Cazorla(CHE) Michu(stk) Fellaini(SOT) Sterling(nor)
Berbatov(MCI) Van Persie(TOT) Tevez(ful)
What ya reckon? I know bringing in a Liverpool player might not be the most popular transfer but their next 3 games look very nice, particularly from a clean sheet perspective (nor, STK RDG) ... would be tough to pick 3 more goal shy opponents.Open Controls
Like it son. Tho tempted to get tev out.
Open ControlsWhen are you planning that move? GW9 looks about the earliest i'd consider Ba now. This was the week to get him imo... feel quite lucky he only managed the one goal!
Open Controls
why is everyone thinking of shipping tevez after he gets benched once? the man is fantasy GOLD
Open ControlsSuch a rotation risk with champs league and city's other options.
Open ControlsIf he doesn't play in league cup I'll probs keep him. If he plays he's out for suarez
Open Controlshmm i would still keep the guy personally. when he plays he will score very well. i would be worried to captain him though.
Open ControlsInnit but for that price u want a captain option
Open Controls
He is a winker ...
Open Controls
Hazard to Fellaini then bale week after anyone?
Open Controls
Seriously thinking about just this. But that is because I need to transfer out Hazard to afford Baines. . .
Open Controls
Is transferring out hazard worth a hit this gw??
Open Controls
Is Zabaleta and Kagawa to Baines and Fellani a classic kneejerk or worth it?
(4 pt hit)Open ControlsGood trannies tbh
Open Controls
would you get Ba or Berbatov?????
Open Controls
doing verm to baines, torres to fletch............hope it pays off
prob need an ars def soon and still havent joined the santi-wagon.......bahOpen ControlsTevez to Suarez anyone? see him doin well next 3 weeks
Open Controls
A Cole and Tevez-> Baines and Fletcher for a hit??
Open Controls
Team linked, what to do:
A)Dyer and Kagawa to Fellaini and Pienaar + 0.6
B)Dyer and Kagawa to Michu and Pienaar + 0.2
C)Graham and Kagawa to Fletcher and Fellaini + 0.4
D)Graham and Kagawa to Fletcher and Pienaar + 0.8
If I go with C or D, I am planning of doing Fletcher to Berba for gw7
???Open Controls
C, but if you want Berbs, just get him straight away. Or just stick with fletcher for a while. You'll be chasing points otherwise and wasting transfers.

thoughts on my team please
foster - bego
saylor - rangel - hangland - demel - cuellar
michu - haz - caz - pienaar - maloney
tevez - rvp - berba
1 ft - 0.6m in the bank
get rid of cuellar?
was thinking of doing maloney to guthrieOpen Controls
Cuellar to Baines for free tonight? Yes?
Open Controls
Aye
Open ControlsOH, YESSS!!! 😀
Open Controls
Question is why wasn't this done last week?
Open ControlsI have never bought expensive defenders, but there is a time for everything. I cannot watch this go on without taking part...
Open Controls
Easiest yes I said since Angelina jolly asked if I want to spend the night with her.
*yes in my dreams only of courseOpen Controlsyes
Open Controls
Who's the best Arsenal defender for 5.5 or less please? Also how long is Jenkinson safe for, with Sagna returning?
Open Controls"We have three classy centre backs, and it is a very difficult choice. Koscielny, Mertesacker and Vermaelen - no matter who is left out can feel it is not right. But I will rotate them and take into consideration the strikers we will face."
....so with this in mind, and that Sagna will return soon, I would go Gibbs. Gibbs is also fairly attacking...!Open ControlsThanks for the advice. Unfortunately I've only got 5.5m though 🙁
Open Controls
Koscielny.
at least another two weeks.Open ControlsBoss Kos. 😉
Open ControlsDon't know if I'm that brave. The fear of seeing his name on the bench is too much.
Open Controls
Current squad is
Begovic, Vorm
Baines, Demel, Hangeland, Vlaar, Harte
Cazorla, Barfa, Fellaini, Yaya, Sterling
RVP, Tevez, Fletcher
Happy with mid and attack for the mo, but fancy a defence reshuffle with Vorm --> Foster, and probably Hangeland, Vlaar and Harte out to alternatives - assume not worth a wildcard as can put out a decentish team for next week and do it with a hit or two over a couple of weeks?Open Controls
Do you think Fellaini will continue to outscore Pienaar?
Open ControlsProbably. See the article by Isacki and me.
Open ControlsA tag team article by the two of you. Then it must be true. Pienaar is a vital component to the way Everton play but alot of his good play is reminiscent of Modric at Spurs where he controls the flow of the game but guys like Fellaini do the point scoring.
Open ControlsCount of Monte Hristo?

😀Open Controls
no.
I expect a backlash, for all of sh*t he gets away with. He goes from a yellow card magnet to this?Open Controls
The obvious answer is that it's hard to say. Last week, Pienaar looked the far greater threat. This week, Fellaini did. They are both great options. Fellaini with slightly greater goal potential.
I'm looking at getting Fellaini in this week (already have Pienaar). Trouble is, I'm not willing to ship Michu out in advance of a run where I fully expect him to be back in the goals. Considering Yaya to Fellaini, but not thrilled to lose Yaya either.
Good to see the template squad busted. Lots of options now.Open ControlsTeams are catching on to Yaya; I got rid a couple of weeks ago.
Open ControlsI like the security of Yaya. Quality player on a quality team (stating the obvious). I also like that he is as likely to score against top squads as lower teams ... but I might have to begrudingly ship him to make way for Fellaini (with the bonus being more funds to spend elsewhere). That being said, with budget strikers making a case to oust rotation-prone Man U & Man City strikers ... I have no idea what to do with my extra funds. Strangely, I might end up with heavy hitters at the back (something I generally avoid).
Open Controls
PLEASE READ.
Shelvey sent off at 38.58. Gerard scored at 45.51. Rafael 51.45. Rvp Leno was at 80.16. Every single important thing added up to 96. Very creepy.Open Controlsyou sound like louis farrakhan...
Open Controls
Sorry but the number 96 thing is false. Shelvey sent off - 38:15. Gerrard goal - 45:49. Rafael goal - 50:29. RVP penalty - 80:11. None = 96.
Open ControlsIt took me 4.8 seconds to read that sentence. Had to read it twice.
Omg! I did it again!Open Controlsand if you don't forward this to 10 people you know you'll be haunted for 96 nights...
Open Controls
Is Zabaleta and Kagawa to Baines and Fellani a classic kneejerk or worth it?
(4 pt hit)Open Controls
My team:
Mignolet/Federici
Hughes-Demel-Fonte-Cole-Simpson
Michu-Hazard-Kagawa-Noble-Yaya
RVP-Tevez-Lambert
I have 2FT and I really want some Everton coverage. I can get rid of Kagawa and Simpson. How to play this? I guess I can get Baines for Simpson and a cheap midfield for Kagawa? Any other solutions? Also, my keeper might need to change.
Any ideas on how to fix this?Open Controls
Considered getting rid of hazard and Simpson for Baines and pienaar? Risky but may pay off handsomely!
Open Controls
I'm sorry Mr Boyce but I'm having to let you go,
Open Controlsplease don't think twice...

Anyone tell me why even though in my profile my team is linked to the correct address

Open Controls
Fletcher or Lambert? Price irrelevant.
Lambert has better stats and fixtures, but Fletcher is oh so tempting...Open Controlsim hopin fletch will get better service as sund midfield improves, specially with aj there
