We bring Gameweek 7 under the microscope this evening to highlight some of the most significant statistics from the weekend’s action. Newcastle’s in-form forward, United’s young pretender, Liverpool’s front two and Swansea’s attacking threat are amongst a number of stand-out statistical selections across Saturday and Sunday’s matches:
Any love for 'R Stevie?'

an anonymous insider soruce indicates that once of the members of Tahiti may be poached by another team
Open Controls
Can't see why anyone would poach from that talentless group of perennial underachievers
Open Controls
So what? Literally no-one not in UEFA (nice name, think it up yourselves?) cares.
Open Controls
So first Mark Felt breaks the Watergate Scandal now he is back from beyond the grave to give insider info on Team Tahiti what a man 😉
Open Controls
Vidic to Terry a good move? Just can't trust ManU currently.
Open Controls
besides michu and oscar, is their a single midfielder worth bringing in for Ben Arfa for a hit?
Open Controls
assuming this jumanjo bloke is nailed on then he could be a good punt for the next 2
Open ControlsMaybe Barkley or if you are very adventurous Januzaj
Open ControlsActually just realised for a hit, maybe leave it after the internationals then.
Open Controls
i wanna know the answer to this too!!
Open Controls
struggling myself to find a replacement. really cant see barfa getting in the first 11 anytime soon and i have .2 in sell-on value until tonight when it will drop to .1. would like to cash in but i just don't see any options i like and would like to keep my free transfer until after internationals.

24 hours on and UEFA are still ruining the site for everyone else. Oh well, not interested in this site until it dies down.
*This comment is not designed to cause the masses to gang up on me. I'm the only one saying what those not in your group are thinking.Open Controls
Not having a go at you as I see your point but these comps are always set up during international breaks. If it wasn't for this the site would be dead in a couple of days.
Open ControlsThis thread has got to page 7 after 2 and a half hours. Its not like the pages are flying.
Open ControlsMaybe some more real discussions could go on longer without 4 and a half of those pages being about your competition.
Open Controls
So what? Not all of us have multiple spare hours every day to trawl through the posts. When I come on I like to sift through and dig out some opinions. Granted, there is always the fair share of crap to sift through but this is beyond that. It's the good stuff mixed in with the crap, being around 25-30% good stuff. We're down to about 10% now.
The board doesn't have to fly page after page like it usually does. Poor reasoning.Open ControlsFine, have a go at me in return.
Banter about the tournament (which you may see as crap, fair enough) has replaced RMT spamming and some of the dumb questions that would be getting asked if this wasn't an international break.
There are hot topics and sorting comments by discussion rating for interesting topics.Open Controls
Spot on Milanista
Open ControlsUEFA verses normals on the +1 race I see. Keep going guys, zzz.
Open Controls
There will be route for FFS uefa to comment soon but to say it's ruining the boards is a tad harsh. Football discussion is still happening, just at a slower rate because of the break. The countless Lukaku and HBA talk has been endless today 😉
Open Controls
Despite being a co-organizer of the tournament, I totally get your point. I would be bummed myself, if I wasn't a part of the tournament, or had no clue of what was happening.
A few things you should note though -:
a) We did this precisely during the international break, so as to no upset the masses, this being the least active times in FPL
b) Normal FPL discussion is still on in full flow....We're not putting a lid to that, and our idea is not to take over all discussions.
c) Have you ever taken a part in such tournament? They really light up things from the sometimes dull world of FPL and inject life into the competition
Despite all what I have said, I will still ask people to tone it down. Have a great day 🙂Open Controls
Things will change tomorrow when Beach Soccer gets a dedicated stick post each day to keep this stuff out most people's reading.
Open Controls
I feel a bit like this when everyone starts talking about cricket, but I move on...
Open Controls
I get your point, it's a little annoying if you're just trying to get a quick look at what the news is etc.. But I don't think there's any point being as confrontational as you've appeared here.
Open Controls
All this talk of this Beach Soccer World Cup wouldn't be so bad if I was apart of it!
Open Controlsso join, there are plenty of spots
Open ControlsI've been trying. I email the Solomon Islands. Don't really want to ask anyone else. Trying to be loyal at the min lol
Open Controls
At last year's ICC or whatever it was called, I actually tried to join. However I probably wasn't well-known or liked enough to get a spot. Not only are these comps annoying, they are designed only for a small group of regulars and not open and community friendly at all.
Open Controls
There are plenty of spaces left - feel free to submit your candidacy to any of the teams with openings.
Open ControlsMy teams linked, check it out. Doubt many people would want me lol! I'd happily be bench fodder!

oooh Netherlands sign garg! thought he would've joined the Paraguay crew

Here's a tough one for you who's going to score first out of these 3 prolific strikers. Kenwyne Jones, Danny Graham or Jozy Altidore (premiership game only)

Worth doing Zabaleta to Terry tonight ?
Would give me Terry Ivanovic Wilson at the back plus Burner,Gabbidon on benchOpen Controls
I'd hold. If aguero had scored zab would have an assist. City will keep clean sheets.
Open Controls
play Januzaj

Gaston will be 5.5 tonight
If I wanted a Saints mid that doesn't play I'd have kept JWPOpen ControlsGaston is a mystery such a talent

Who are the best 3 to have up front?

Suarez Sturridge Lukaku
Wrong to double up on Liv?Open Controlsdone wonders for me the last 2 weeks so no

We all know Giroud likes scoring in London, 4 out of his 5 next fixtures are in London!
Open Controls
who do people think will get to their next rise first after tonight Lukaku or Sturridge?
Open Controls
People of FFS, reassure me.
I'm currently ranked 2.2 millionth, having already played my wild card and with some dead rubber in my team. I've already taken a -4 hit this week.
This is my third season, both of the last two years I've finished in the top 4k.
Is this recoverable? Anyone else had similar starts?Open Controls
Going to be tough to finish in the top 5k from there.
I think setting a goal of maybe top 50k may be more realistic this season.Open ControlsI finished just outside 4k last season, and I am currently ranked 1.1 millionth myself. I don't think it's the end now though. There will be a lot of dead teams soon, and once we get the hang of the new season, or when it stabilizes, that's when we'll start moving up the ranks I think.
Open ControlsThanks all. I've gone about it this season with the same decision making processes as always. The outcome's just been different. I'm 110 points behind in my money mini league, my hope is to still win that.
This week, I ranked 2.9 millionth!Open Controls
i would say the majority of regular hands on players (myself included)
are finding this season difficult and frustrating
chin up, believe in your ability , you'll be fine 🙂Open ControlsI blame previous years for biasing me against Ramsey and Yaya! Kept thing 'flash in the pan, just a flash in the pan...' 😉
Open Controls
I had a terrible start last year but was able to turn it around and finished roughly top 5k. Long, long way to go. Consistency is the key, particularly late in the season. If you have one good month you can be right up there, especially if you can nail it with your captains on any kind of consistent basis.
Open Controls
So, barfa going down tonight. Do early transfer to avoid the probably multiple price drops or grit my teeth and ignore him until the internationals are played?
Feels a wee bit risky to transferr him out this earlyOpen Controls
Get rid now, I would if I was you.
Open ControlsI am selling for Oscar tonight
Open ControlsHe was hauled off 2nd half against Everton and Newcastle improved no end, He got the last 4 minutes against Cardiff, Newcastle fixtures aren't great, You will only lose money on him, he's dropped 30% today.
Open Controls
What's making people say to wait on Wally injury news?
PhysioRoom and other reports suggesting return to full training for Palace the week afterOpen Controlsdabbled with the idea of Lamps -> Wally FT and if not fit. But that involves leaving Barfa in/taking a hit.
Also considered doing Barfa -> someone and Lamps -> Wally (-4) if fit but probably not a good moveOpen Controls
