Paul We delve into the Gameweek 36 data this evening after Arsenal’s clash with Newcastle drew the line under another round of matches. With the double Gameweek fast approaching, we cast any eye over some standout performers from City, United, Sunderland and West Brom, whilst we also analyse a couple of popular Fantasy protagonists whose recent droughts are persuading many owners to part company:
Which looks better for last 2GW.
A:) Cahill & Sterling > Demi & YAYA
Mannone [Davies]
Azpi Demi Chester[Pieters Ward]
Ramsey Eriksen Mata Yaya [Davis]
Suarez Aguero Rooney
B:) Pieters & Eriksen > Demi & YAYA
Mannone [Davies]
Azpi Demi Cahill Chester [Ward]
Ramsey Mata Yaya [Sterling Davis]
Suarez Aguero Rooney
A:) Would mean i would play Eriksen in both.
B:) Would mean i play Sterling in last against N'Castle
I have been set on A all week but am starting to thin dropping Cahill maybe nuts.
Cant bring Yaya in on his now 0.1 short. But wasnt confident doing early with slight fear over groin. Plus really want demi for last two.
Thanks for any advice
Cahill > Eriksen week 37
Sterling = Eriksen week 38
B is better
If i went with B I could always Swap Mata > Sterling with my FT
Giving me a midfield of Eriksen [AVL] Sterling [NEW] Yaya [WHM] Ramsey [nor]
with two chelsea defenders & a city defender for last GW
I assume you mean A as you would already have Sterling under B?
Presumably with B you could also then swap Mata for Erik with your FT for the and still have Cahill over Eriksen this week and the same team as you suggested next week.
Probably better uses of your FT week 38 either way mind you, I'm thinking Rooney > Sturridge with mine
Sorry do mean B
Could swap Mata > Eriksen! giving me the above midfield
which one guys?
a) play azpi
b) play evra (-4)
tough one.. your other defenders?
B
A
cheers guys...pretty split vote!! I may end up playing both!
Azpi 😀
Rumours in the Dutch press this morning of Laudrup or Martinez being possible replacements if de Boer leaves Ajax. Both are friends of Cruijff. Hopefully de Boer stays tho as Tottenham is still a step down.
Not in $s it wont be
sorry, wasn't aware that you had seen the in depth salary structures for both clubs.
Doubt de Boer would move just for the money anyway.
This is all rather silly.
No but a club's revenue is a strong indicator of its ability to cover costs including higher manager wages. Eriksen also decided to 'step down' last year I noticed.
the manager may get a higher wage but we don't know that.
Yes, that's true, he did, as did Vertonghen. I supposed they were sold on the club's great future and CL football. What has actually happened is that they have played in a poorer football playing team and been in the EL. I guess Tottenham will just be another stepping stone for them tho
Considering Henderson is back in gw 38, is it certain that Sterling will start in that game ??
I think so.. Lucas/Allen could be benched for Henderson!
Lucas will get dropped
Imagine if Suarez was dropped. Lol.
He should start. They will most likely need to win by the great goal difference
Might need to be about 15-0.. 😛
For -4 & 0ITB,
Boruc
Azpi Jones* Chester*
Ramsey Mutch Yaya* Mata*
Suarez Aguero* Rooney*
Adrian Ki* Ward John
planning to do Boruc > Mannone for a hit.. would you do it?
Boruc will probably get 2 points, Mannone will probably get 5 or 6.. Mannone has a better GW38 though too so yeah probably!
Thanks IM.. RM is my second fav team coz of Raul.. used to stay up until 2AM just to see him play!
Am I the only one considering saving the FT this week :)?
if you have enough dgw, it could actually be a great differential! 😀
Yep 🙂
There is a chance that I'll end up not using my final one! I don't know what to do with it. That would be deeply ironic for a guy who has taken as many hits as I have 🙂
😯
Would you start Koscielny this week instead of one of Cahill, Alonso or Eriksen?
Potentially Alonso, probably not.
Definitely neither of the other two.
Kosc over Alonso could be worth a shot, but the DGW players is probably the safest.
Looks like it'll be between Rooney & Kun for the armband?
Will I be fine with this team ?
mannone
jones, vlaar, demichelis
mutch, gerrard, ramsey, nasri
aguero, suarez, rooney (c)
already took a hit but could take one more doing either gerrard>mata or coleman>evra. What do you think ?
Gerrard -> Mata would be the most obvious one..
You already have Jones so Evra isn't that essential.
Agree, Gerrard -> Mata or leave it as it is.
Evra got good attacking potential though and a good chance of atleast one CS. Will mata play both games ?
Yep potentially, would you play Evra over Mutch?
Tough call, Mutch has a good fixture this week, but Evra has 2 decent fixtures.. I wouldn't bank on an Evra assist, and if Evra is rested then its a disaster.. But he could get nearly 20 points if he has a great week...
Evra is more risk, but potentially higher reward.
He already has 3 City.
I'm on 5 DGW players (including Chester who I might bench), so I defo need to get one City defender or a Man Utd mid.
1) Punch, Baines and Coleman -> Mata, Demi and Alonso (-12)
2) Eriksen and Baines -> Mata and 5.8 defender (-8)
3) Eriksen, Baines and Coleman -> Demi, Evra and Mata (-12)
4) Screw Mata, Baines + Eriksen -> Evra and Nasri
😯
Thanks Drughi. I've got some serious thinking to do, not sure which way I want to go.
Is 4 for free? If so, then that by a mile.
Nah mate, -8! 😐 Only had 1 FT this round, that was G -> Yaya. I hate looking at -8/possibly -12, but I honestly think it needs to be done.
Hmm... Eriksen might do well this week, might not be the best idea to take a hit to ship him.
Baines is an interesting one because Everton are City's bogey team (after Sunderland 😉 ) and Everton might actually do well vs City, but you'd probably expect City to score.
Baines -> Evra for -4 and keep Eriksen maybe? :/ Its a tough one mate!
Yes he could, but I believe going into the DGW with no Mata or Nasri would be scary.
I've got both Baines and Coleman, need to ship at least one of them, probably Baines for more cash to upgrade elsewhere.
Thanks for your thoughts buddy!
Haha so bitter
Dont know what to do with this team really. Cast-ML is pretty much won (85 points ahead).
Overall rank 6002.
Hart
Baker - Kos - Cahill (Chester, McCartney)
Nasri - Mata - Eriksen - Ramsey (Delph)
Suarez - Aguero - Rooney
1.0 ITB
Was thinking of doing McCartney - Rio/Smalling/Evans (Max 5.0) and bench Baker. Not too sure about Rio tho, will he even play 2-3 more games this season?
Dont think I can get Yaya in without taking too many hits.
Thoughts? Save transfer or take a chance on Rio?
Demichelis likely to rise before the gw?
Have a massive conundrum, I promised I'd go to my mrs family event the same day as the FA Cup final.
So won't be able to watch it at all. It's already causing arguments...
I think i'll have to listen on the radio at best 🙁
you are old enough to be married?! but you come across so immature!
You're married?? I thought you were younger than me haha 😛
It probably won't be that great a match, Arsenal will probably win.. But yeah that sucks.
there is no point in arguing.. you will finally end up missing the game 🙁
Cheer up, you could at least listen on the radio 🙂
Girlfriends come along more often than arsenal trophies. Watch the game you may win
Mannone
Mert Cahill Demichelis
Ramsey Yaya Gerrard Mata
Aguero(vc) Rooney(c) Suarez
K Davis Eriksen Chester Ward
On -4 to achieve above look good.
Would you take Gerrard out for another hit?
Is anyone captaining a City player (Yaya or Kun) this week?
They are the team with everything to play for. They are up against an Everton side with injuries who have little left to go for, followed by a Villa side with a leaky defence.
Rooney is obviously the majority choice, but he can very easily slip into a deeper role (as he did last week when Mata came on), and Giggs or not, United have nothing on the line and the Sunderland game in particular could be tricky.
Aguero for me.
You've convinced me. Aguero (c) 🙂
Haha I'm not even certain myself, just surprised at how overwhelming Rooney is the favourite.
RVP coming back -> Rooney lose penalties -> (c) a City player? Makes sense. On Rooney atm though.
Last 9 fixtures between Eve/City..
Eve: 6 wins
City: 2
Draw: 1
The END.
That was with Moyes though right? Also won't Barry be ineligible to play?
Martinez > Moyes.
Barry out is the one big factor that's in City's favour..
good point mate.. no Jags Distin Barry.. I am thinking about Aguero (c) for once..
Correct. But Everton is a better team with Marti at the helm. He beat them(City) in the FA Cup final with Wigan as well.
Eve will be up for it, especially after their poor performance last week.
Agreed it wont be an easy game for City but with the current circumstances I can see them winning what will probably be a tight game...
Yeah maybe. My problem with Kun is:
1. His hammy(he hasn't played 90 min in PL since 7 Dec 2013)
2. How fit is Silva
It seems a lot of hope is being put on Kun demolishing Villa(H).
I agree - see my comment below.
He just seems to have lost that x-factor in his game and as I've said below its totally understandable but now it seems unlikely that he's willing to go on the runs he used to beating defenders with ease, in case he pulls it again.
I would rather (C) Yaya then Kun.
City to beat Everton, think the title is theirs, and then Villa to avoid relegation by beating City 😉
No Mirallas either. I don't see Everton making much headway in this one.
This.
I love your stats Christina 😉
The only thing that worries me about Aguero is that he seems to be playing with the WC in mind and it looks to be affecting his performances as he is an explosive player and without that explosiveness in his game he is not as dangerous. I can understand as the last thing he wants to do is miss the WC but I hope I'm wrong and he has been finding his fitness these last few games.
Team good to go for DGW?
One hit taken, 8 DGWers
Another hit to get AJ in for Puncheon and bench Chester?
MANNONE
EVRA, DEMI, CHESTER, Apzi
YAYA, MATA, Ramsey
ROONEY ©, AGUERO (VC), Suarez
Subs: Boruc, Puncheon, McCartney, Noone
I don't rate AJ for this week, he's out of form and I don't trust him..
Giaccherini potential punt.. 😉 if he gets game time he'd be great and he has 1 goal and 3 assists in his last hour of football.
I'm not saying go for Giaccherini, he's a massive punt with low ownership who might not start, but he's a good player in form with a dgw..
I would try and avoid playing Chester if possible.
How about Sterling?
Can't afford. But haven't done Ward-Demi yet, so could do Apzi to Demi instead and afford Sterling. But not sure looosing Apzi is worth it to get Sterling over puncheon for a hit.
Nope not worth it.. Screw it just play Chester, nobody esle is worth dismantling your team with hits for.
Good to go??
Mannone
chester jones azpi (coleman ward)
yaya mata eriksen ramsey (mutch)
suarez rooney (c) aguero
Do another 4 pnt hit (allready -4) for a DGW?
Mutch-> Amalfitano?
A city defender?
Cheers!
Good to go, only weak point in first 11 is Chester.
I know Chester has a DGW, but is it worth playing him over one of Azpi/Cahill (Norwich at home) ?
Chelsea def. will probably get morebpoints than Chester.
Nope.
Don't think so
Alright cheers, I'll start Azpi Cahill Demi
Or go 4 at the back and play Chester and Apzi instead of puncheon in my case?
Nah my 4 mids are Nasri, Gerrard, Eriksen & Ramsey so will play them
For the Rooney(c) doubters:
Last 5 games between ManU/Hull
ManU: 5 wins
Goals for: 15
Rooney 6 goals(included a 4 goal salvo at OT in a 4-0 win)
Cue RVP to start and Rooney to be dropped.
It's a tough one. What if the old" ManU turn up vs hull and it's a boring 2 - 0 and Rvp(and not Rooney) is in on the act? Even Mata or welbeck?
Then Sunderland...all to play for...I doubt that will be high scoring.
On the other side, City up in a tough fixt vs Eve. Villa on the other hand should be 4 or 5 nil. Who says Kun gets more than 60min?
Villa beat Chelsea and Arsenal and drew at Anfield.. They'll need to win something to survive the drop.. You never know 😉 nah I'm only being devil's advocate..
I'm currently on Yaya. Think he's safer than Kun and a bit of a differential (C) pick.
Rooney I'm just glad to have in my team, anything could happen with United, although if I had to choose between him and Kun it would probably be Rooney.
...Damn now I want to (C) Rooney..
You've convinced me. Rooney (c) 🙂
😆
I just dont know im 15 behind my ML leader with a superior side IMO. But think he will plump for Rooney over Aguero. Its super difficult to decide weather to take the gamble this week or next
Best move...
A. Baines to Alonso
B. Ki to Giaccherini and play Baines
After a 100 point catch up, I am just 14 points behind my rival. From looking at ours teams below for this DGW, what do you guys think my chances are?:
My team (-8) 7 DGWers:
Mannone
Demichelis / Ferdinand / Azpi
Nasri / Mata / Ramsey / Eriken
Rooney / Aguero / Suarez
Rivals team (-4) 5 DGWers:
Krul
Jones / Fonte / Azpi
Toure / Mata / Ramsey / Barkley
Dzeko / Aguero / Suarez
He told me that he brought in Toure and ive guessed his 2nd transfer is a UTD defender
Might come down to wat shrek can do for you
No. One assist for Podolski may well mean he gets more points than either of them
*gulp*
Quick Rmt Pls .. Doubling up on United defence ..Absolutely dreading it now
Mannone
Zabaleta Evra Jones Chester
Yaya Eriksen Ramsey
Aguero Rooney Suarez
Boric Lallana Barkley Ward ..
All set ?
