With Gameweek 1 concluded, it’s time to delve a little deeper into the data in our first “Big Numbers” article for members of the campaign. We analyse the display of Arsenal’s new wide man against Palace, the QPR front pairing at home to Hull, Liverpool’s ever-improving youngster, Southampton’s delivery under Ronald Koeman and United’s weekend scorer in the 2-1 home loss to Swansea.
Going to have to ship Eriksen if he doesn't do anything this weekend.
Hoping he does - he usually does well at home iirc.Open ControlsDo I NEED to make any changes here or do I stick with what I have and let things play out for a couple more game weeks?

Was thinking :

B) Jones >> Clyne
C) Young >> Anyone who might look like scoring more than 2pts!!!!

Does anyone here even remember Cesc @ Arsenal?
It's not like he was playing behind the striker or anything. He will get assists aplenty, we knew that before and we have had a couple of reminders already.Open ControlsIf you did remember Cesc when he played at Arsenal why wouldn't you bring him in. Him & Lampard were two of the highest returning players in FPL. My biggest issue right now is a choice b/w Mata, Silva & Sterling. Any suggestions for a 5m mid to replace Jack Rodwell?
Open Controls
Does this look right for the weekend?
Open ControlsYeah 😉
Open Controls
Anyone else 'round these parts going Gylfiless this weekend? 😯
Open ControlsOnly the people who hate points! 😉
Open ControlsNot me. I shipped hendo for him
Open ControlsMe. Like my 4 mids too much to remove them and not paying 4 points for him.
Open ControlsMe. Fab mata ramsey and sterling.no room at the inn.x
Open ControlsSame.
Open Controls
Eriksen has QPR at home i agree, but Sterling going up in price is just too much because then can't afford him after that. So hey ho, just going to have to go with it. Would have kept but frigging Sterling's price rise.
Open ControlsPoints > TV
If you think Eriksen will score more points than Sterling, then keep Eriksen and eventually the prices will reflect the points scored.Open Controls
Mata->Fabregas/Silva (-4) is not worth it right?
I don't think Fabregas will outscore Mata hard the next 1-2-3 gws, but worried about price changes.Open ControlsI am about to take a -4 to do Ramsey to Fabregas but it feels wrong.
Open Controls😯 That's crazy.
Open ControlsKeep Ramsey. If you are to do a -4, might as well get Eden H.
Open ControlsChrist Almighty. Go for a walk.
Open ControlsThanks everyone you may have made me see sense but I cannot be sure as that price rise is very alluring. :S
Open ControlsTrue but Fab will go up more and I fancy him to score more points over the next 5 GW.
Open Controls
Stop
Open ControlsDo it. Gonna be worth it for now. Ramsey and arsenal not on form, chelski got good fixtures

Bony.
Open ControlsIs there still whispers that bony could be leaving?
I would maybe edge towards Ade. Nice differential. And on pens.Open ControlsAre for me.
Open ControlsAde 😳
Open Controls
Do you have to decide tonight? Wait for Thursday's EL team sheet; if Soldado starts, then it looks like MP prefers Adebayor for the league games, for now.
Presuming you own Gylfi, two attackers from Swansea may be a bit of an overkill.Open ControlsTricky one. Not sure. Instinct says Adebayor, but you know me ... 🙂
Open ControlsNah, tough games the next few.
Plus I'm ditching Jovetic.Open Controls
yes, Im glad someone else is bringing this up Evs. seriously considering Bony in for Sturridge strangeley enough
Open ControlsThanks Lads.
I think I'll stick with pre-gw1 plan in then of...
Jovetic ➡ Bony.Open ControlsKeep Jovetic for one more week. He does well at home.
Open ControlsCity are fixture proof. We put past 6 vs Arsenal and Spurs last season at home. He'll come good.
Open Controls
A question I'd like answering:
Why is Mata to Fabregas a knee jerk because it's only one gameweek...
But anyone to Siggy is good because he scored ?
I don't get the logic 🙁Open ControlsYou don't have to understand it, you just have to do it! 😉
Open ControlsBecause Mata is priced on the basis that he will probably score 160+ points this season, whereas Siggy would be replacing a player who will probably just reach 100 points, if that.
Siggy would appear to be a more significant upgrade than the Mata to Fabs one.
Plus Mata still has great fixtures whereas Chelsea's aren't terrific after next week.
Just my guess anyway.Open ControlsI don't think anyone's saying swap *anyone* for Siggy. Just it's wise to bring him in if you have space for him, as he's been talked about all pre season as a pick.
Mata to Fab is different. The Mata In crowd cite fixtures and potential, Fab In are going on form. I don't have either currently so I don't speak for those people, but I think that's about right. 🙂Open Controls
Would you shift Naughton for free? Looks like his price might drop tonight
Other defenders are JR, Chambers, Hutton, Wisdom
Ideally wanna save ft in order to facilitate Kun for gw3 but the price drop means I can only get a 4.0 defender in the future (already have 2 4.0s at the moment)Open ControlsKroos misses a sitter.
Open ControlsSo who has wildcarded already?
Open Controls🙄
Open Controlsim thinking about playing it tonight before price rises on fab
I need 2 keepers a defender a forward and fab.Open Controlsim about to ... I want fabs and cant bring myself to drop Sterling or Ramsay to bring him in...

what with you do with this team for week 2? want to get cesc but not keen on who to get rid of or taking the hit this early in the season. any thoughts?
krul, mannone
debucy, cahill, lovren, hutton, wisdom
ramsey, siggy, sterling, eriksen, marney
rooney, costa, dzeckoOpen ControlsOk so maybe i have found a way to keep Eriksen and Mata for one more week but it involves a 4pt hit.
Young -> Sterling
Neil Taylor/Wilson to -> Hutton
Yes or no?Open ControlsIf you can afford that, it might be good. Wilson in this rare instance.

remove mata? cant think of anything else.
Fab is tempting for a potential 0.5m price diffOpen ControlsSit tight
Open Controlsitchy fingers with all the fab talk.
i dont expect him to do well this coming weekend so will only be doing it for price reasons which is a good enough reason so early on, i sufferd with lack of tv last yearOpen Controls
FT to save 0.5m... It's a no brainer in my opinion.
Open ControlsNo one to Fab would save .5 it has to be a -4
Open ControlsYou're advice has been disregarded.
It means that mata will (likely) fall 0.2
Fabregas will (likely) rise 0.3
Net effect on your team is 0.5
A lot of money!Open Controls
hmmm no brainer to which side though? lol
explain your reasoning also...am in the middleOpen ControlsTo sell mata to fabregas, especially for a FT.
- Mata will not significantly outscore Fabregas
- If he does, you can pocket 0.3m and knee-jerk him back in
- Fabregas showed hope, and looked class
- Mata didn't
- Neither did Man Utd
I do think Mata will be worthwhile, just not now, let them settle down and get rolling with LvG's tactics and they'll do well.Open Controlsi dont expect fab to do well though...
i have 1m in the bank so could do eriksen >> fab?Open ControlsIf you don't expect Fab to do well I think it's a mistake. Surely you'll make money on price rises with other players. If Mata does well people will be scrambling to get him back in.
Open Controls
Think I'm gonna gamble
Hazard (c)Open ControlsKeeping your transfer?
Open Controlsyup, not a free Chelsea spot to get Cesc in with, so I'm saving and then I can re-asses next week when I'm back in the country and have 2 FTs
But I think JT, Haz and Costa is a nice trioOpen Controls
Sounds good to me.
Open ControlsCosta for me
Open Controls
Right just got back from my holiday in Tenerife, not been able to keep abreast of what's been happening anyone like to sum up for me in a nutshell what's been going on around these parts?
Open ControlsI have both gutted I swapped Ramsey and Fab for Hazard and Eriksen after championing it for so long but hey ho, don't see any reason to lose faith just yet
Open Controls
Mayhem. You are well out of it.
Open ControlsKnee jerking I presume
Open Controls
Madness. Tune back in tomorrow

Open ControlsLook at my post last page, flavour of the week in a nutshell.
Open Controls
It's quite funny how everyone else knee-jerking makes you want to knee-jerk.
That, and the imminent price rises/drops means I'm about to lose some TV when I could WC.
Hard knock life.Open ControlsKnee-jerk is the most annoying term used on this site (see hot topic)
It's basically just a word used for 'In-form'
Imo a knee jerk is Cattermole, or chester.
Not Fabregas or Sterling.Open Controls
my score this week is 74 points that a good score ?
