Paul In our second members article of the week, we turn to our own ICT Index for inspiration. Assessing player performance for Influence, Creativity and Threat in accordance with the relevant Opta statistics, we create a Members table in order to analyse the top-scoring midfielders over the last four Gameweeks:
Morning DZ, which of these moves d'ya think looks best?
A) GW33: Nolan -> Eriksen
GW34: Gerrard & Sturridge -> Lallana/Ramsey & Aguero
B) GW33: Nolan & Sturridge -> Hazard & Dzeko
GW34: Gerrard -> Lallana/Ramsey/Santi
Mannone
Baines, Terry, Chester
Yaya, Silva, Gerrard, Nolan
Suarez, Sturridge, Lukaku
Gazzaniga, Distin, Williamson, Gnabry
Bank 0.5m, 2 freebies
Yeah, kinda comes down to Hazard vs Aguero doesn't it....
Don't see why that's a problem?
Aguero is a problem IMO
Couple questions:
Dejagah or Puncheon to bench?
Do we fancy Boruc or Mannone this week?
I'd bench Puncheon. Just bought Holtby myself... Fulham fighting for air, will be plenty motivated. AVL have been leaky at home lately.
punch. yet to score or assist away from home, chamakh back (pens), palace worst away scorers in the league. yeah it's cardiff but still, dejagah for me.
mannone i guess
Bench Puncheon and Boruc.
I'd play Puncheon Demi, I fancy that to be an open attacking game with goals a-plenty.
Yuck! toss a coin for one of those keepers and get religious. Wouldn't touch Mannone until GW36 if then.
I fancy Fulham notching a few (Hence both Benteke and Agbon out), CP on the other hand, I reckon will notch at top 1 goal - So, would go for Dejagah.
Best defender £4.8m or less to get this week but probably keep for the season?
Have Everton, Palace, Hull and Villa cover already, plus Mannone. Can't think of anyone beyond Bardsley...
Chambers? Clyne out for a while. Spurs have some decent fixtures and Naughton is pretty cheap.
I've gone for Naughton myself, I'm aware that there's a risk but Tottenham's fixtures are worth it.
Flanaghan?
bardsley or alonso
Also, will Baker go back into Villa's defence this week? Not even sure why he was dropped last GW...
Last question for the DZers....is Eriksen likely to see a price rise before Saturday?
Is this side OK this week without using a transfer? The plan is to bring Aguero in next week for free/-4.
Boruc
Turner Cahill Baines (Coleman, Koscielny)
Hazard (c) Yaya Gerrard Snodgrass (Puncheon)
Suarez Sturridge Bony
Which could be in the next 20 mins right? I better bite the bullet and get him then!
I'd get him now just in case, if your budget is tight and you intend to get him anyway.
Mutch or Sterling this week?
Thanks
Mutch.
Sterling could always end-up on the bench...
Yeah that's my worry.
Thanks
Rodgers says he likes control and silk passing against teams that play deep, so…
And always using Sterling for penetration versus teams that play a bit with high defensive line (Spurs, United) but with center backs that are slow.
So at west Ham i guess he could play either way…since the last exhibition in diamond formation was not to great (SUN).
Thanks for advice
Help needed...
Mannone
Terry - Baines - Shaw
Yaya - Hazard - Snodgrass - Nolan
Suarez - Rooney - Sturridge
Adrian - Noone - Ward - Yoshida
£0.1m itb and 2 FT.
Thoughts?
Both look good moves.
Yeah and Shaw to Demi/Zabs maybe
I was in similar spot and did Nolan > Eriksen. Looks nailed on finally and Spurs have amazing fixtures
I have the exact amount to do Bony & Gerrard -> Aguero & Mutch right now but can't afford it when Mutch rises. I had planned on doing it next week for free.
Too soon? If so, I'll have to find another 4.8 mid..
can't you just do one more transfer to free up funds for those two moves?
I'd just get Mutch atm Viper.
Too soon I reckon man. Shame.
Yeah defo too early.
Wait for man city pressed tomorrow.
He may play this weekend but game time big concern.
Mutch is OK, but you won't be playing him every week. there are other mids at 4.8 or less. I'm not on the Mutch bandwagon, let's put it that way.
Appreciate the help
Team is..
Adrian
Zabaleta Coleman Azpi Evra
Cazorla Yaya Hazard
Suarez Sturridge Lukaku
Sterling - Noone - Bruce.
Save FT?
Also, planning to get Sturridge -> Aguero next.
How to fund it?
a) Cazorla -> AJ
b) Sterling -> Ki
Cheers
Sterling to Ki. Caz has some nice fixtures. You may want to ditch Adrian aswell.
Barkley replacements?
already have AJ Snodgrass Yaya and Hazard
Barkley plus 2.7
2 new options... A still the best bet?
A) GW33: Nolan -> Eriksen
GW34: Gerrard & Sturridge -> Lallana/Ramsey & Aguero
B) GW33: Nolan & Sturridge -> Hazard & Dzeko
GW34: Gerrard -> Lallana/Ramsey/Santi
C) GW33: Nolan & Gerrard -> Hazard & Ki
GW34: Sturridge -> Aguero
D) GW33: Nolan & Baines -> Dann & Hazard
GW34: Gerrard & Sturridge -> Lallana/Ramsey & Aguero (4 points)
Mannone
Baines, Terry, Chester
Yaya, Silva, Gerrard, Nolan
Suarez, Sturridge, Lukaku
Gazzaniga, Distin, Williamson, Gnabry
Bank 0.5m, 2 freebies
Like C.
D its a no go, since you lose Baines (dew) and 4 point hit.
Yeah, iv gone off D now. A vs C looks close - just ran a comparison of Hazard vs Eriksen over the last 4 weeks - Eriksen romped it!
A looks by far the best to me. Commited to losing Sturridge?
I think so yeah. Fixtures stiffening, doubles for others and I have some LIV cover in Suarez.
I think A and C look best, closely followed by B. Don't fancy Hazard?
Is it with losing either Koscielny (WHM) or Cahill (swa) for Demichelis next week for a hit?
Sorry, one more if anyone would be so kind..
Bony -> Dzeko this week or hold out for Aguero next week?
Are you planning going with Dzeko and Aguero?
Srsly need some help on who to play between mirallas and mutch.
Anyone got any opinions?
The team looks like this
Boruc/Vorm
Azpilcueta coleman chambers/turner/ward
snodgrass johnson yaya BARKLEY Hazard
Sturidge Suarez(jelavic)
2.9 in the bank.
I need to replace barkley. should i be looking to swtich out jelavic as well and if so to who?
If Barkley is conformed out for more than a week get Eriksen in - GW 33
Try to get Lukaku in for Jelavic - GW 34
Anyone playing Marshall against Palace this gw? Have a FT that I feel I want to spend upgrading Marshall have 4.8 to spend
Are you crazy fella? 🙂 This is one of few games in the season where you might expect Cardiff to keep a clean sheet. Save the FT,will be handy next week!
But the season ticket says both have an easy game this week.
You may be right, other keeper is Mannone. It dawned on me both my keepers are fighting for survival and will probably concede quite a bit.
Mannone is staying for extra games.
Seems like a sidestep. Not sure it helps this GW.
Yeah, but between Marshall and Mannone…play Marshall.
I just got you an option, since you ask.
Can't see Mannone doing well in the dgw. Speroni should get at least one cleansheet **hope**
or could do Barkley to Mirallas and hold on Jelavic to maybe Dzeko next week seeing Agueros status
I seek wisdom!
Start
Mannone or Marshall
MOlsson or Ward
Thx
Thx
Any opinions on Henderson as a Gerrard replacement?
no way.
Judging by that shot he had over the bar the other game when even my dead grandmother could've scored kinda tells me all I need to know about Henderson. He's good for about 4 or 5 gameweek returns a season, and that's not enough to justify picking him up for me. Of course, maybe you'll get him for one of those rare times he has double figures. And, yes, he did eventually score in that game, but it was kinda bogus with the free kick finding a hole through a group of people and somehow going in. Nothing he intended. I know people have their reservations about Eriksen, but I'd much rather go with him than Hendo. (sorry for the novel)
I thought I was being oh so clever getting him at the start, he hit the post on day one and points looked sure to follow. They did: 3,3,,3,2,2,2,2,2,2,2zzzz. But since I sold him he has never looked back, he has scored close to 100pts since early November. I just think he's improving all the time.
He's not the worst prospect in the world. And, he could always toss in a goal or two here and there. - - After writing this, I took a look at him just to brush up. He's actually the 8th highest points getter for all midfielders. WTF! That is astonishing.....and his numbers really aren't that bad. Man, I'm starting to think maybe it isn't such a bad idea. I feel a tad enlightened right about now!
Gerrard > Eriksen
already have Yaya, Hazard and Silva. trying to close a gap of 70 points.
a) Yes
b) No
Am watching Portlandia in my hotel. Never seen it before.
I like it
I watched that pretty regularly a couple years back. Definitely was of considerable quality overall. Good for some laughs for sure. And, I like that it's fairly different from anything else on the telly.
Sounds pretty hilarious to me. Unfortunately, I don't have the channel anymore on my cable. I miss that show.
Would you rather have
a) Dann for DGW (AVL, eve) +
Eriksen GW35 onwards (FUL sto whm AVL) +
Lukaku on GW36 only (sou)
(Playing 3-4-3 GW 35 onwards)
or
b) Ki for DGW (EVE mci) +
Evra GW35 onwards (eve NOR SUN HUL sou) +
Rooney on GW36 only (NOR)
(Playing 4-3-3 GW 35 onwards)
Cheers 😉

Yaya Nasri Hazard Mirallas
Lukaku Suarez Sturridge
Subs: Mannone Olsson Ward Parker
Robbie Keane is my captain this weekend for Fantasy MLS! *prepares himself for backlash against MLS* - - Seriously, it's good fun. Played it for the first time last year, and if nothing else, it was an ideal way to fill the gap when the Prem League is on summer break.
link please?
If you're talkin' to me, here ya go. It's already gameweek 4 this weekend, but that ain't the biggest of deals if ya just wanna get in and have some fun. Defoe out with a hammy. Had to take a -4 to get Keane, but I think it was worth it, especially since Keane is going up against Chivas. http://fantasy.mlssoccer.com/
RMT Could i get away with saving my swaps as want 2 c situations on (Aguero Ramsey when kos is back if zableta gets a 9th yellow etc and what 2 city players i want
Mannone
Aspz,Olsson,Ivanovic
Mata,Hazard,Yaya,Mutch
SUAREZ,sturridge,lukaku
coleman,ki,Kos
I think he will
No according to totalfpl which is very accurate.
What transfers should I make to this lot? 0.1 ITB, 1FT
Boruc (Mannone)
Baines Kolarov Azpi (Kosc Chester)
Hazard Snodgrass Yaya Nasri (Puncheon)
Suarez Sturridge Lukaku
Play Mutch or Lukaku?
