In Tommy We Trust We roll out the second instalment of our new weekly article for Members this evening, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the Gameweek ahead. With Liverpool, City and Arsenal squaring up to some resilient defences, we delve into the data in order to assess our armband possibilities.
I see Oscar and Luiz arrived back at the Bridge earlier this evening..Good news for us Oscar owners in the hope of a start Saturday evening..
http://tinyurl.com/nhno57y
Would you play Brady ahead of any of these?
Hazard Ozil Ramsey Sessegnon
Remy Suarez Aguero
Probably not. That's why I am keeping Barkley.
Are the teams out for the 1st Test or am I waiting until 11pm?
England: Alastair Cook (capt), Michael Carberry, Jonathan Trott, Kevin Pietersen, Ian Bell, Joe Root, Matt Prior (vice-captain, wk), Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann, James Anderson, Chris Tremlett.
Australia: Michael Clarke (captain), Chris Rogers, David Warner, Shane Watson, Steven Smith, George Bailey, Brad Haddin (vice-captain, wk), Mitchell Johnson, Peter Siddle, Ryan Harris, Nathan Lyon.
Cheers. So still 11pm or so until 12th men are announced.
Wow 11 each. Even better.
Hey TM, where do I register for the Sportal game? (Can't find the registration page)
http://cricketdreamteam.sportal.com.au/ ?
Not sure on the new player part. Make a new one & login I think or use your facebook/twitter.
Silva ->
A. Sessengnon
B. Walcott
i am currently having this team set up for GW12:
Mignolet
Chico, Coleman, Terry
Özil, Yaya, Januzaj, Brady
Rooney(vc), Sturridge, Remy(C)
Morrison, Walker, Fonte
0FT and 1.0m
is this acceptable?
this will surely be my decision on saturday.
So... I am mad to Captain Sess over Aguero and Suarez?
Ok last question play Courtinho or Januzaj!
Januzaj is a rotation risk but has better fixture and has been rested last few games but Courtinho is a better player but out of form and has tougher fixture!
coutinho, but im biased and offer bad advice ....... so januzaj 😉
Coutinho will soon become a must have.If you've got him keep the faith the points are coming.
Doubt he will be a must have but can see some decent returns soon from Coutinho
Who are the idiots that would sell Walcott now, I mean what have you gained from holding onto him for this whole time and then selling him before his return.
maybe people who do not believe he will walk straight back into the team so they choose a starter for this week.
Casuals that haven't looked at their team for weeks and then panic at lack of returns from him
don't forget all the people who've been in a coma for a few weeks
people like mirallas.
Any Sunderland fans on?
Heard someone on here this afternoon saying Mannone was now number 1 even when Westwood is fit - is this right?
Nobody knows. It will depend on how the next few games go, but my instinct is that Gus will stick with Mannone now until he does something wrong. Our defence has been relatively solid last few games, and I don't think Poyet will interfere with that without cause.
Neither of them is conspicuously better than the other, so getting either of them long-term (unless as a back-up) is a risk, IMO.
If this is question is for a fantasy purpose then who cares who starts for Sun. They are so leaky at the back and apart from a good performance against man city they haven't looked good at all.
silva to sess or gerrard ....?
play zab or -4 (macauley)?
Gerrard .... Great fixtures, no rotation coming up to Xmas
i also have cout n suarez, but i left that info out on purpose. 😉 ....i still think gerrard is the right pic despite trippling up, but i want others less blinded opinions
Lads
My head says I should bring in hazard but heart wants to have a punt on Walcott and play him with ozil for the next four games Southampton (h) Cardiff (a) Hull (h) and Everton (h)
I know these teams aren't particularly mugish especially - south/eve and that theo will only play 30-60 mins but it pays to get ahead of game ..... I also think hazard was lucky in the last gameweek and i don't trust Chelsea mids
What do u say ?
i dont know man, wally comin back isnt the same as a suarez return, just dont know how hes goin to slot in and whether hell hit the ground running after an injury.....
I feel your Pain !!! Considering Hazard myself for Ya Ya..... Chelsea could run riot on Sat evening against the hammers ..and if they do then Mr Hazard will Hoover up the points !!!! West Ham also have defensive worries so go for it !!!
Migs (davis)
Walker coleman williams (wilson chester)
So who do I transfer out? (Have 3.3 in the bank)
Hey Lads, as confirmed earlier. I'm delighted to announce that I will be hosting the first doubles 2013-14 Big Bash League.

How does it work?
Well there's 8 teams.
Each team plays each other once.
There are 4 teams who go through to the semis.
Then the 2 who win ps the ties go to the final
Good luck
Sounds like an Aussie Cricket League.
are you combining our scores or are we making a new team?
Thomass, me and Beric are wondering how the scores work?
Are you just combining the two players scores?
Yeah, it's like
eg. Thomass 60 and Beric60 then your teams total score would 120
i like fish.
i am available.
Made a simple little calculation based on the home/away comparison between these five players. I gave 5 points if the player had the top statistic, 1 if he had the lowest. Adding it together, it came out like this:
Aguero 29
Ozil 30
Remy 35
Rooney 22
Suarez 39
Not very scientific maybe, but a decent conclusion if you ask me. So... captain either Remy or Suarez. Do not captain Rooney.
Nice effort actually. I've had the armband on Rooney all week but Suarez is extremely tempting now.
Remy for me, Norwich are terrible at times defensively, Conceded 14 in 5 away games. Everton conceded just 3 in 5 home games, As much as I have Suarez and think he's class Remy is getting the armband this weekend. Also slightly more of a differential in my m/l
Yeah i've been on Remy myself, thinking of going Suarez now.
I'm liking the Captain Sensible articles 🙂
Getting the right GW captain is huge in FPL, especially over the past three GWs when players like Suarez and Aguero get major hauls.
It's certainly a tough one this GW12 though as there's a good 'for & against' case for many players as captain. It's a good opportunity to move up the overall rankings greatly though if you choose the right one this GW.
Good to see you matt how are things going at the minute?
Hi Thomas, things are good thanks.
Though in FPL, I've just about recovered from captaining HBA in GW5! 🙂
Nice comeback Mr FPL # 1
Thanks TM 🙂
Well said Matt.
Who are you going for?
I'm probably going for captaining Aguero.
Man City's home goal scoring form has been excellent, and Aguero should get his usual chances despite Spurs having a decent defence.
Also I couldn't bare to watch Super Sunday if I didn't captain him! 🙂
Yeah. I'm between Aguero and Remy.
But maybe it's too early for a captain punt... slow and steady I guess.
Remy would be a good logical captain pick - he certainly has the form and the fixture.
Though I'm sticking with the tried and tested big guns after my HBA (c) fail against Hull 🙁
Cheers reigning champ 🙂
You're welcome Tommy. Keep up the good work 🙂
@ Demi and others.
Which defender would you get:
Mertesacker, McAuley or Evans? Could you please provide a justification. It's been really hard for me to pick one. I am torn between McAuley and Evans. I am ditching Baines for one of them.
My team: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/624174/event-history/11/
Cheers mate. Not liking Evans and his goal threat and CS prospects?
I c. Do you have any news about what happened to Rio?
No worries
he's been injured, but he's also past it.
Injuries have caught up with him.
Evans is now first choice IMO, but that doesn't mean he's nailed on. However, with Jones injured he's good for this week.
If it helps i'm getting McAuley over Evans this week. Evans is my planned replacement for Williams in a few weeks when Swansea's fixtures turn and I've had more chance to assess Evans' nailed-onness
IMO part of the reason United have been so poor at the back has been the lack of a consistent back-four in front of DDG, I don't think the importance of this can be overstated, look at Everton and Saints, look at United in previous seasons. A GK and a back-four that play together every week build an understanding, that just can't be developed when things keep changing.
Thx mate. Sound reasoning. Appreciate it. Will get McAuley 😉
Mertesacker for the next four, Evans thereafter. Play the fixtures and build funds for the January WC. Evans more likely to be rotated during ECL GW's and they fortuitously stop in four GW's 🙂
Thx lads
I see the Uruguay match is on LFC Tv tonight..might give it a look
ahh good spot...
Right team??
Harper (Migs)
GJ. Coleman. Zab. (Chester. Dawson)
Janusaz. Oscar. Hazard. Ramsey. (Townsend)
AGUERO. Suarez. Benteke
I love this article
yep derby could have goals either side.....or could be a 0-0 borefest
Was goin to swap for Remy Barkley is annoying me to
barkley could be justified as a swap out, but maybe give lukaku a couple more chnaces
covering your bases there col. shoe
i learned everything from lawro 😉 splinters in my butt
I probably will. Scored against Pool both games last season.
no one in the top 20
Ashes Cricket
Who are you guys picking as your all rounder?
Play two from?
A. Coleman (Lpool)
B. Clyne (Ars)
C. Barkley (Lpool)
Best capt choice?
1. Rooney
2. Suarez
3. Agureo
i would bench Clyne.
Rooney
Is Walcott likely to start this weekend.
If so. Is Oscar to Walcott worth a hit??
possibly and nope
start? no.
but he will get some minutes.
so, no.
I doubt Walcott will start this GW - he's been out for a while, also Arsenal been doing well without him.
He may get a run out though if fit in final period of game. So I wouldn't say its worth a transfer, never mind a hit.
is it all about the journey or the destination?
all well and good but my fpl journey is akin to m25 on friday evening rush hour
but is your destination worth it?
If destination = FPL # 1 then that's the answer.
David Silva owners what are we doing ???
Sold him 2 weeks ago
getting rid this week .... but for whom is the question
I got a bit of MNF fever and got Sess in for him
already got sess 2 gws ago I'm expecting big things 🙂
aye hes on the list too , tbh i may as well cast a die ..... prob do better than i have
Same he is out for like 4gws too long to hold out really was thinking Wally as a diff
i was gonna suggest him, if you don't have Ozil
I'm likely to get Wally in for Oscar next week.
i just worry wally is too much of a diff, like the 1 point kind this week...... but miracles do happen
would love to play against his former club
Had him at the start but was very frustrating not the player I thought he was
Lukaku > Remy before the rise tonight.
Yay or nay?
My goalkeeper situation is looking ugly. I've got speroni (who has decent fixtures and could see pulls take over- defence minded) and boruc who's done me proud but has absolutely atrocious fixtures. I like the look of krul over the next few... Could a transfer out for one of my pair to the Dutchman for -4 be rewarding? Thanks for responses as ever 🙂
Speroni to McGregor might be worth a hit
But that leaves you exposed over coming weeks.
Really you need both of them out!
My team:
Migs/4.0
Terry/Ivan/Williams/Clyne/Cameron
Ramsey/Coutinho/Brady/JWP/Barkley
Agüero(C)/Suarez/Tekkers(VC)
A) Coutinho -> Hazard
B) Barkley -> Sess
C) Tekkers -> Remy
Which will bring me more points this GW? Must beat my rival in H2H league, can crush other guys easily in that league 🙂
