As always, our first members article of the week delves into the data from the previous batch of fixtures. This time around, the displays of Chelsea’s wide men, Liverpool’s lone forward, Southampton’s new playmaker and the Hammers’ attacking improvement all come under analysis.
A) Austin
B) Joel Campbell
Austin is injured, but no length given yet that I've seen.
Joel Campbell a complete no go atm
Hows this look for GW2?
Krul
Terry - Clyne - Chambers
Mata - Ramsey - Eriksen - Siggy
Rooney(c) - Costa - Jelly
Subs Eliott - PvA - Marney - Moore
3.5 ITB
bego
clyne, caulker, cahill
ramsey, siggy, eriksen, hazard
rooney, naismith, costa
(Dier, Chester, Davis)
Any changes need to be made?
Yaya going to drop today it looks like. Should I take the drop on the chin and just wait it out? Was intending to replace him with Di Maria.
wait it out, you wont be priced out of any players with the drop.
also, he mightn't drop, price drop websites currently up in armsplus I could see him getting something at Stoke..he's been good so far (if a bit lethargic), just nothing FPL-wise
Do i need a wildcard to get City cover for Stoke? 🙁
Krul
Terry Caulker Bruce
Siggy Ramsey fabregas Mata Erikson
Rooney Costa
Elliot Fletcher Wisdom Chester
Certainly not
Certainly not.
It's one fixture and not even a that good one. City ownership is generally quite low too.
Certainly not
Kool thanks all
*cool
Krul Elliot
PVA Clyne Hutton Taylor Chambers
Siggy Ramsey Sterling Young Albrighton
Rooney Aguero Costa
£2.4m in the bank
Young to
A) Chadli
B) Tadic
C) A.N. Other (& upgrade Chambers)Thoughts on Dawson at 4.9?
too much when there are 4.5 alternatives
Thinking of PvA and Bertrand in for Kolarov and Hutton after the break , Villa terrible fixtures and not keen on City's fixtures all seem Clichy type games
Good moves in my opinion.
Cheers mate , nice to get a green light
Hoping Balotelli gets off to a wild one 😀
he's going to surprise a few imo.
Call me crazy but my front line 😀
Sturridge-Balo-AgueroLove it! I want to go with something like this: Aguero - Balotelli - Costa
Looks the real deal 😀
this = points
I think he'll surprise the fans who think he'll be a good signing to be honest. 🙁
That would be me. I reckon he'll thrive. I'm excited and a little bit scared. Can all go tits up with him so quickly
Nah he'll be good.
Tadic, de jong or schurle?
Ok Gents, I made a mistake, I'll admit it.
I transferred Jovetic out and avoided the price drop for Pelle. Now I am slowly being convinced that he is ahead of Dzeko to partner Aguero up top, or at least the most guaranteed to play for the next few weeks.
Worth taking a -4 to bring him back? As of such, I was (and probably will be) the only one in my league with him.*Or ladies for that matter. Berb's grav distracted me.
I wouldn't undo the move. I don't really see the two goals against Liverpool changing anything. Jovetic can partner Aguero, he should start against Stoke but beyond that it's 50/50 at best as to whether he starts every week.
After a poor start and going against my gut I'm wondering should I spend 4 points to bring in:
A) Augero for Rooney
B)Jocovic for Rooney
C)hold tough
Djokovic?
Keep Rooney. Not worth a hit, or a transfer.
Keep Rooney
Dilemma time guys, need to make a change today before the Bojan/Young price drop:
Do I:
A: Swap Bojan, Young and Loven for Jovetic, JWP + £4.9m defender, 8 point hit (already have Taylor and Krul/Beg rotation)
Or
B: Swap Bojan and Young for JWP and Rivere, 4 point hit?
Any thoughts and suggestions of the £4.9m defender for A.
Cheers!!!HELP i need a 5.9 striker to replace Austin?????
Naismith
Everyone seems to be buying Naismith these days so I suppose must be a decent choice.
Should we not hold off on Naismith as Everton seem to be close on signing Eto?
Someone was arguing that Naismith fills in for Barkley so is safe until he returns.
poor assumption
Giroud injury must mean that Alexis Sanchez will end up playing further forward at some stage.
An out-of-position pick, maybe?Doesn't bother me, he played upfront against Everton and did absolutely nothing.
A position he was absolute rubbish in though
Problem is he started OOP last match and didn't really perform. Needs a bit more time perhaps.
He will get other chances up front.
I think he will, but for his price I would wait till he has adjusted to the PL, which is only a matter of time imo. Great player. One to watch certainly.
What is OOP?
out of position
Cheers lad
Will Davis start for SOT or has he been dropped?
Depends.
I think its nailed, yet.half and half. i'd not buy, sell (or bench) all attacking southampton players barring tadic right now until it becomes clear what is happening with long. also gaston must be due back soon
*i'd sell, bench or not buy
Yeah he's first on bench in case Dzeko doesn't feature.
Or would you go Dzeko > Jovetic/Barndoora.
Question that has maybe been asked a dozen times today, if so apologies!
Jovetic showing as protected on totalfpl.
Is he and if so why or is it the site still not working correctly?
I don't think anyone has really worked out price changes yet this season and it appears that the main FPL site have changed their code so it's proving harder to get the necessary information to work them out so it's causing all kinds of problems. Also absolutely no reason why Jovetic would be protected.
I couldn't see why he would be. Not even sure if I want to bring him in. Don't like being forced into early transfers.
Thinking of saving my FT.
Then more flexibility to face the possibles injures from int break.
Jovetic and Ramsey
to
Balotelli and de Jong
Thoughts?Wouldn't ditch Ramsey. Jovetic is in form.
Madness
This is proper mad.
ARS (from gw4): MCI, avl, TOT, che
MCI (from gw4): ars, CHE, hul, avlStill proper mad.
Form - that is all I have to say, apart from proper mad like the muppet said.
You are saying you will do these transfer in the int break?
There is really no point planning these exact transfers so far ahead. Everything will change again after next GW and over the break.Yes.
After break.
And of course if no injuries in the standout players
Silly to consider dzeko -> jove/ade just to use a transfer? Got two saved up and no other issues in the team really.
I am in the exactly same situation.
I'll probably use it on Dzeko. Both Jovetic and Ade on my watchlist atm, but leaning towards Ade a lil' bit more now
Who gonna start vs Stoke, Giroud or Jovetic?
banter
😆
Oh yeah Dzeko 😛 going nuts here....
I reckon Jovetic should be given a chance but I have no insight into Pelegrini's way of managing.
Kone 😀
Could be any of those...
How mad would be not having any City coverage atm..?
Not world ending, 1 good match then 2 bad ones, could probably wait 3 weeks.
No so mad IMO, it's hard to predict where the points are coming from at the moment let alone the line up. They don't exactly have plum fixtures either.
That said they probably will do well - jubut the points could easily come from Yaya or Kompany next week!jubut, seemed to have made up a word there..
Wait 3 weeks.
Christina, still around?
Your suggested team for Gw4 is my team right now, except I have Fab over Haz and different defenders.. 😉
Oi, what do you think of Mata & Bojan to Gylfi & Jovetic? I know you sold Jovetic & kept Mata 😀
I say do it, Pep.
Tbh I don't trust Jovetic, anyone else you can sacrifice besides Juan?
Sterling is not silva
That plucky plagiarising potato
is it worth Eriksen, Kelly to Nasri and Dummett? Thanks
I wouldn't. Dummet may not be nailed on for too much longer. Eriksen will come good surely
Dummett is nailed tll Santon comes in and Eriksen is likely to drop though
Fair enough but I'd prefer Lamela over Nasri personally
Pretty ecstatic about 130 points through the first GWs considering I never start the season well! I need to get rid of Young though. Best option up to 5.5 to be my 5th mid?
a) Larsson
b) JWP
c) Downing
d) Gardner
e) Marney
f) Albrighton
g) OtherGo for a 4.5m one if it's going to be your 5th
This
c)
f
JWP
F
Not so unanimous 😛 I'm leaning towards JWP personally but worried about him holding his spot
Arfield, if he can score against Chelsea then ManU shouldn't be a problem.
You have 101 points.
Haven't updated my URL
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/323/event-history/2/Nice one!
2 FTs and 0 in the bank.
Would you do
A) Chambers to Dummett or Colo
C) Chambers and Moore to Dummett and Naylor
B) Dzeko and Rooney to Naismith and Aguero to get a good captainI kind of like the look of B which is in C's position 😆
a
Any1 seen this?
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/manchester-uniteds-marcos-rojo-could-4097649
Would explain the whole work permit issues that are taking so long..He actually looks like the wee red devil.
what did they do to his lips haha
Taking an age for this Di Maria announcement. ffs sake
🙁
Not as long as Balotelli. That went for about 5 days.
They always seem to with us
Just relax, it is happeningThat last one just for the sake of it?
In honour of the GOAT Duncan Jenkins. May he rest in peace
imo onion the best there was
A) PVA Jovetic
B) Cahill NaismithDamn rf
A. Eriksen or
B. Sterling?
Thanks!to have or to drop?
In sickness and in health....
noticed the full minutes are taken into account in the members section, so for example sturridge played 96mins this gw. imo FPL would be better if they did that for clean sheets etc rather than just capping everything at 90mins
