Our first members article of the week delves into the data of the nine matches played out so far. A number of forwards come under assessment this evening, with Liverpool, United and West Ham’s new frontmen all analysed, whilst we also take a look at City’s resurgent Bosnian, Chelsea’s midfield and Swansea’s worrying lack of impact in the final third.
Rooney & Pelle > Sturridge and ?
A) Ulloa
B) Valencia
sell Pelle?
I know, it's tearing me apart ..
Could save a FT and just get rid of Rooney for someone? Would be 10.7.
ThoughtsDzeko
this
Fck it done it for a -4

it was my initial thought
no point in looking at the subs they're useless
Wow great team
Which one?
A) Downing
B) Mane
C) Chadli
B
C
A 😀
A
Pelle + Bertrand in for Naismtih + Caulker. Done.
Thoughts appreciated. Pls pick one of these for GW7 defense:
a) Clyne (tot)
b) Moore (BUR)
c) Pieters (sun)B
B
B
B
Consensus! Nice.
Will need to revisit this decision after Pieters' imminent 20 point explosion vs. NEW.
prices change soon, can I get a little help? thanks 🙂 🙂
2 FT, 0.7m in the bank
A) Rooney + Naismith > Welbeck + Pelle
B) Rooney > Falcao and hold the extra FT
C) Rooney > Pelle and hold the extra FT
D) Rooney + Moreno > Aguero + Moore (after City CL)
E) other?
...................Begovic
..........Ivan - Clyne - Moreno
Siggy - Cesc - Sterling - Di Maria
......Rooney - Naismith - Costa
Gilks; Chambers, Marney, Hutton
If you dont know maybe you should wait a few days
D
D, I think.
C or B for me. Welbeck has a tough fixture, and no urgency to ship Moreno as far as I can tell. I also feel no urgency to pick up Aguero, which is different than a lot of folks around here.
Rooney and Ramsey to a Gambly Lukaku and Silva.....excited and nervous
Is Wisdom a rotation risk?
Won't play this week because of loan situation against Liverpool, but is pretty much nailed on other weeks.
Time to use my WC?
DDG/Gilks
Cahill/Duff/Dummet/Clyne/Chester
Siggy/Ramsey/Sterling/ADM/Marney
Pelle/Rooney/Costa
0.0itb
Bad keeper. Only 3 nailed defenders with Cahill's value rapidly dropping. Ramsey And Rooney out. Not sure what to do from here, bad fixtures for my three nailed defenders as well (Arsenal, Leicester and Spurs) Marney also injured just to rub salt in the wounds
Rooney is also about to drop and I don't like making my transfer early to get in Aguero before UCL fixtures.
If I don't WC I would get Aguero and Downing for Rooney and Ramsey
yeah might aswell wc..atleast 7 changes to make.
What team do you reccomend?
get aguero for rooney
tadic or chadli for ramsey
boyd for marney to save 0.1
then beef up gks and defence. i would get forster and mccarthy in goal. baines for cahill. keep clyne and maybe duff. shift dummett and chester
Just remove Ramsey and Rooney. Marney would never be in your XI anyway. Dummett may have just gotten his place back. Cahill could easily keep a cleanie this gw, Chelsea are actually much tighter against stronger opposition.
next week
Thats what I'm thinking atm
A: Terry + Rooney ---> Bertrand + Aguero (-4)
B: Terry + Rooney ---> Moreno + Aguero (-4)
C: Rooney ---> Pelle
Thanks. Current team is:
Begovic Gilks
Terry Clyne Naylor Duff Wisdom
Hazard DiMaria Sterling Siggy Davis
Costa Rooney UlloaI like A but wait after Champs League if you can incase Aguero gets injured
I like it too, even with the doubling up on Southampton defence. Thanks for advise, will wait
Top 4 of my ML including me have the same midfield of Sterling Fab ADM and Siggy and Costa up front. Its not gonna be easy chasing people this year, you will need some good differentials
What do you guys think?captain will decide everything
This.
Anyone considering Lukaku? Everton's fixtures are amazing
On the wing OoP, I fancied him too mate. Keep checking up on his heat mat & see if Martinez plays him there through out.
It's a definite no for me though as of right nowNone of their midfield interests me really so the only other realistic option would be Terry -> Baines next week, which is the way i'm leaning
Lean harder, be as lean as Fat Joe. Leanback now Yo
He's hurt me oh so many times before so avoiding for now but I always get lured in!
RAMSEY REPLACEMENT GUYS???
Chadli or Tadic.
Depends. Who are your other midfielders and strikers?
Night DZers 😉
I won't be back 'til staurday, so this'll be a quick one. G2g?
Bego
Baines|Clyne|PvA
Sterling(VC)|Hazard|AdM|Siggy
Costa|Pelle|Ulloa(C)
(Gilks, Duff, Caulker, Marney) 2.9 ITB, no FT
Any concerns for next week? Will play out Siggy 'til his run of fixtures end, my only concern as of today is seeing if I should plan out my next three transfers (downgrades) to fit in Aguero.epic reply fail
-1
On a scale of 1 - 10, how crazy is the following move lads? Using my 2 FTs and would bench Welbeck this week. Team is linked!
Rooney + JWP OUT
Pelle + Downing IN + 2M ITBDowning is crap
They have some decent fixtures coming up and think will be a good first sub option week in and week out. I think he'll nab a few assists this season with Sakho and Valencia in the ranks
Should I just forget about JWP for now and let him rot on my bench for a little bit? 😆
If I do -4. Then play WC after the transfer. Would I lose the -4
Nope
So I can do -4 now and play WC later?
Yup. If you use your wildcard before the next week it'll remove any hits you've taken already
the -4 gets cancelled.
Yes
If Sakho does get charged, would he still be available to play this weekend if West Ham appealed?
dont think so
Not sure
Welbeck, Lukaku or Adebayor?
Mannone (STK)
Naylor (NEW) Moreno (WBA) Dier (SOT)
Siggy (NEW) Sterling (WBA) Di Maria (EVE) Fabregas (ARS)
Welbeck (che) Pelle (tot) Costa (ARS)
Forster Clyne Pieters Boyd
Any obvious changes required. I'm thinking if Dier has lost his spot that I could downgrade him and bank the coin for an upgrade later. Having Clyne first sub covers him if he doesn't play though, so not really anything to worry about right?Consider:
Forster > Krul
Dier > Moore
These would be awful moves, but we could have identical teams.Haha ... i just transferred Krul > Forster whilst leaving Mannone on the bench with a CS ... foolish!
If you're serious about downgrading Dier, Moore may not be a bad option for GW7 (BUR).
Forster is a good goalie
In all seriousness, I like your team a lot (not surprising since mine is nearly the same).
I'm trying to figure out what to do with my 2FT this week, and considering dealing with Krul. I have my eye on Baines as a defensive upgrade in GW8. Otherwise I like having some cash in the bank for flexibility to deal with injuries or for picking the flavor of the day on the front line.
I don't like Welbeck's matchup for GW7, but I think I would prefer to live with it rather than wasting transfers on a round-trip, one-week replacement.

Thanks
I guess Triggerlips was right after all about Rooney
Normally am
I know you are, I'm just enjoying it when others attack you and you prove them wrong as always lol
They love attacking me, it like a hobby for them
Risers: Bertrand Sterling
Fallers: Anderson D Johnson Giroud Mayuka Tiendalli Cazorla Ferreyra BuckleyNice, Bertrand in for Spurs eh? Who fancies a Soton cs?
Much to do about nothing
Unless you have both the risers like me. Means a little something...like .2 something!
*ado
Cheers
Bertrand and Sterling 😀
How does this WC team looks?
Mannone (Hamer)
Bertrand Chambers Taylor (Wisdom Moore/Hutton)
Di Maria Fabregas Sterling Siggy (Boyd)
Aguero Costa Pelle
Can't afford a better second keeper unless I downgrade Pelle to Welbeck.Do the downgrade. Live a little 😛
Alternatively, consider Aguero > Dzeko. That'll free up 3.4 or so for a keeper and defender upgrade. Hamer to Foster and Chambers to Baines, for example.But with Jovetic coming back, is Dzeko nailed on?
I don't know. Is Aguero? I can see Jovetic coming on for Aguero next week, beyond that's anyone's guess. I got burned too often by Dzeko's consistency getting results over Aguero's dodgy injury record, and him vs Aguero in the stats this week clinch it for me.
* last season. I lost a big prize league (PLP here in NZ) last year largely through owning Aguero vs my chasing opponent's Dzeko. Never again 😉
Jovetic has been injured a long time. He needs time to regain his match fitness and then find his form before he`ll be in line for starts. Calm down people.
That works for me. Dzeko looks a decent bet.
He is. Pretty cheap and very streaky player. That said, keep an eye on CL and there`s always the chance of rotation with City strikers. If it helps i`m pretty sure i`m gonna get Dzeko myself.
Good to go!
Baines a must have in WC imo
Thanks everyone!
Naismith to Falcao for -4?
Nah
Falcao isnt even worth having at his current form, imo
Jist bring in Berahino already, trig.
bit late now,
Rooney to Aguero now or wait?
wait until Tuesday for Man City's Champions League game to see if Aguero gets injured or not
wait for CL midweek?
Rooney surely will drop but at least you have another day tp muse over it
Sterling went up again. 😯
think a lot of people did ramsey ---> sterling
Ah ok yeah that makes sense.
I have no complaints with that 😀
I have him as well just wasn't expecting that.
Time to get rid of Balotelli, yeah?
Yeah. Too static in the box, too much time coming deep. Get shot.
has there ever been a time to get him?
Perhaps just me playing fpl with my heart when i got him on WC, blinded by emotions and fixtures and not actual proven form. Sturridge returning would make it interesting though, and the fixtures still are there. Cant really decide though.
Why did you get him in the first place 😯
Knew he would be poor.That`s not really a fair assesment of the situation. He hasn`t been poor. In FPL terms, yeah. Real life footie? Not poor at all. Not exellent, but not poor.
not with the next 3 fixtures
Fixtures haven`t exactly been awful since i`ve had him. With Sturridge back into the team though things might be better for Balo.
How will Pool line up with Sturridge back?
As a fan im hoping to bring the diamond back with Sturridge/Balo with Lallana tucked in and Hendo/Sterling "wide" and Gerrard holding. I atleast know for a fact that Balo is 10x better when he has a strikepartner, and you would honestly think that theyre both going to play.
Last chance vs WBA H
Does anyone know who will have a higher threshold for price falls?
Rooney, owned by 900k, red flagged
Rambo, owned by 1100k, yellow flaggedno idea - you can't predict these things
You can... just not with a high expectation of doing so accurately.
Old formula assumed 10% net transfers out before dropping, so Rambo would need slightly higher threshold
But don't know if red vs yellow flags mean anything
Uhhh. Not sure
Anyone who is flagged will still be able to increase and decrease in value. The increase NTI target stays the same. However the NTO Threshold for a price drop is approximately 2.5 times greater than the usual Threshold for price drops.
that was last year . no idea if ithe same, they would both need about 250000 ntothats from zero, have no idea where they were before the gameweek started
Done my transfers.
Good too go?

Im thinking to save my WC for next week 😀you dont have mane 😯
gtgWent with Downing instead. Especially since I plan to WC next GW.
Hey Ramessi. I know a lot of people around these block fancy Tadic. The thing is I might be forced to bring in Mane instead. You reckon he's a capable alternative?
sorry i went afk...yes i think so, but tadic is preferable 🙂
No worries mate 😉 let me throw you one final curve ball. I'm looking to ship out both Rambo and Eriksen this week with 2FT. If getting Tadic means I won't be able to get Fabregas alongside him, would you still recommend going for Tadic?
so
A) Mané + Fàbregas
B) Tadic + Gerrard/Sterling/Silva/Özil/Chadli/Downing
I'd go B 🙂Yup you summed it up well 😀
I'm beginning to lean towards Tadic after seeing some of his highlights against QPR. My only worry is not being able to afford Fabregas as well if I go for him, 0.1m short 🙁
Anyways, appreciate the input mate! Certainly food for thought.
Captin??
Costa, Aguero
11.1 to spend on Naismith replacement. Anyone worth bringing in as I think he will not play full 90 after mid-week game?
Valencia for the upcoming two fixtures?
QPR home, Burnley away?Sturridge or valencia
