We turn our attentions to the weekend’s nine matches now and delve into the data in our first member’s article of the week. Chelsea, Man City and Tottenham’s goalscoring midfielders arrive on our radar, whilst Swansea’s in-form frontman and Andy Carroll’s impact on West Ham’s style of play are also amongst this evening’s topics.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Cue Tadic hat trick, Pelle sending off, and Weimann brace. 🙂

    Oscar, like that ex gf from years ago who occasionally drifts back into town offering you affection. For the first while life is happy. Sepia toned dreams of lazy Sunday afternoons in the back garden with her and your beautiful three children fill your thoughts and all you want is to be near her, to explore life and the world with her. Then after a few weeks she's stopped scoring you fantasy points and has become a f**king nightmare to boot because all the good mids have risen in price but God forbid you'd resort to starting f**king Albrighton instead because he's also worth f**k all and will probably result in you getting the poxy bugger off the bench anyways.

    Oscar has been in my team since Silva got injured, seems to be working so far

  5. Diva
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Evening all. Sounds like most people are drowning their sorrows as much as I. Would appreciate your thought on the following choice. The answer initially seems clear to me, but then I look at the fixtures and pause...

    A) Siggy and Austin
    B) Hazard and Kane

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B 🙂 Glory favors the bold.

      1. Diva
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks Walsh. With Fab and Costa already in my team I'd be all in. Death or glory eh?!

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Indeed.

    2. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I like B too. There's always a straight swap to Ayoze if Kane falls out of favour.

      1. Diva
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Thank Reedy... Almost a straight swap, but many a time that .1 has laid waste the best laid plans.

        1. Reedy
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Damn, sorry I forgot about his rise!

      2. Diva

    Off for an episode of The Shield and bed. Night all, been fun chatting!

    1. Hibbo

      Night. Just finished 5 series of Love/Hate.

      Getting into The Fall next.

      1. Beavis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        Downloaded season 1 of love/hate but too busy with The Shield at the moment, quite reminiscent of The Wire (sort of)!

  7. OReiMessi
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Evening gents! Care to take a look?

    Krul Foster
    Baines Bertrand Chambers Naylor Dummett
    Sanchez Fabregas Chadli Downing Boyd
    Aguero Costa Pelle
    0.1M ITB, 2 FT

    Thinking about Pelle, Bertrand, Chadli -> Austin, Azpi, Siggy (-4)

    Thoughts very much appreciated.

    1. Diva
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I would save the Bertrand to Azpi transfer to next week. All your other defenders have reasonable fixtures next week except Baines and, if fit, I'm sure you'll be playing him regardless of fixture.

      1. OReiMessi
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Aye that's a fair point. Then I can also assess Soton's performance against City. Thanks for the advice!

  8. Van Dal
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Krul and Austin wont rise tonight will they? According to fplstatistics should be tomorrow.

    1. Diva
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Austin, and maybe Krul, are close enough that you're taking a risk if you only have the exact money to make your moves before a rise.

      1. Walsh
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        This

      2. Van Dal
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers pal have plenty but losing 0.2 is going to be annoyong stil

  9. Bojaninho
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    so what was Chadlis actual injury

    1. Cousin Greg
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      knee.

      1. Bojaninho
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        take it no news on how long he's out etc?

  10. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A) Guzan + 7 points
    B) Pelle and Clyne

    In your opinion, who wins?

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B hopefully!

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Cheering for B since I got both 😆

      Another easy victory for you in NBA eh 😉

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Hehe, it seems as though luck is paying me a visit 😉

      2. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        And you too it seems 😀

        1. Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          The easy victory part not the luck part 😛

        2. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Only this week, and just like you, Lady luck is smiling at me. 🙂

          1. Les Bleus
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            😉

  11. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    For some mad reason I am considering this 12 point hit:

    Player(s) in Player(s) out
    Yun Shawcross
    Sigurdsson Downing
    Oscar Boyd
    Bony Pellè

    The only thing that is stopping me so far is that Chelsea have to play in Europe so there could be injuries etc.

    I know it sounds silly but I feel that a -12 would be better then wasting a wildcard!

    1. jordinho23
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Will be tough to get the 12 points back

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        That's a fair point I might just stick to -4 / -8

    2. Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Use the wildcard or phase over 3 gw

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I decided to wildcard and I left 2m in the bank to get aguero in for costa if needs be. I also figured Hazard is a better choice then sigurdson long term.

        Date Out In GW ?
        24 Nov 1:03 Ayoze Kane 13
        24 Nov 1:03 Pellè Bony 13
        24 Nov 1:03 Downing Hazard 13
        24 Nov 1:03 Shawcross Dummett 13
        24 Nov 1:03 Clyne Yun 13

  12. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Bony or Austin?

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Bony he looks like he means business and with those fixtures would be silly not to pick him

  13. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Here's a noob question. How to view the possible fallers in fplstatistics?

    1. Diva
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Click "Tar" in the table headers.

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Just click he target tab to reverse it. They're not that accurate with fallers though.

    3. Think Tank
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Click on TAR, the far right column.

    4. Aaron Ramessi - Straya
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      click on "Tar" 🙂

    5. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks all. Really appreciate it.

  14. Van Dal
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Finkin of doing Bego and Welbz > Krul and Austin fo free.

    Anyone got a problem with it speak now or forever hold your peace.

    1. Diva
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Do you have a good rotator for GW 15 & 16?

      1. Van Dal
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        No single keeper mate

        1. Diva
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Then I guess it depends whether you're happy playing Krul v Chelsea and Arsenal.

          1. Van Dal
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            Hmm thats a good point mate. Cheers. Might just get heaton as i have dummet

  16. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I notice a lot of people seem to be getting Kane but is Ayoze Perez a better option? Team in form etc....better fixtures

    1. jordinho23
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Kane better option

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Won't adebayor take his place when he is fit again?

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          No. They can play together.

        2. Cousin Greg
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          No if he keep scoring.

  17. Bojaninho
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    who scores more over next 2/3 weeks?

    1. Yun and Rooney

    2.Ivanovic and Austin

    1. jordinho23
      • 12 Years

    What's the score on Duff?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      2 pts, 35 overall. Currently yellow-flagged

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        and fwiw, I'm not getting him.

        1. Coaly
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          I have him, meant his injury status

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

    Predicted points for Tadic tonight?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years

      I predict a pen. They're due one.

  20. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    2FT

    a) Pelle to Bony
    b) Pelle Clyne to Austin Baines

    1. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B

    3. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B assuming Baines is back for next weekend.

    4. Cousin Greg
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B if Baines is fit.

  21. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Will Austin rise tonight?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Close but should just miss.

    2. Cousin Greg
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      maybe maybe not

    3. Aaron Ramessi - Straya
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      should survive tonight and rise tomorrow

    4. OReiMessi
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I hope not.. I'm about to hit the button on Pelle -> Austin, but would love to see Pelle's performance tomorrow before doing so.

  22. YoungPretender
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    What to do with this time? Happy to take a -4 hit this week I think as my team needs a good sorting out! (Particularly my defence).

    Krul - Mannone
    Moreno - Shawcross - Chambers - Wisdom - Duff
    Cesc - Sanchez - ADM - Siggy - King
    Aguero - Austin - Pelle

    Liverpool have some nice fixtures, but just aren't keeping cleanys! Moreno also didn't play today for some reason. Could do with getting him and Shawcross out!

    Who best to bring in? 0.9m in the bank.

    1. Suarezista
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      If Duff is fit you can survive for one more week with your defence, personally don't like a -4 for a defender.
      Next week for free maybe,

  23. FPL Alaska
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A) Clyne > Azpi
    B) Pelle > Rooney
    C) Pelle, Wisdom > Costa, Yun (-4 hit)
    D) Pelle, Fab > Costa, Oscar (-4 hit)
    E) Hold

    Current Team:

    Guzan
    Baines - Clyne - Chambers (Dummet, Wisdom)
    Sanchez - ADM - Fab - Downing (Boyd)
    Kun - Pelle - Austin

    Thoughts please?

    1. Suarezista
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B or C

  24. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Forster & AdM > Heaton & Sanchez

    -4

    Yay or nay?

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Don't like it for a hit. Maybe just do it next week for free.

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Not with United's tasty-ish fixtures no.

    2. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Don't you already have Heaton (looking at your link)?

      1. Reedy
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Oh and Sanchez...is it the other way round?

        1. Not Irish
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          For a friend's team. Needs alot of tweaks.

          1. Reedy
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            Ah. I wouldn't sell ADM right now, not even for Sanchez.

    3. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yay.

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      ADM is the most desirable midfielder to own for the next two GWs.

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Maybe if he were in any kind of form and showed Sanchez's composure in front of goal. But alas, that is not the case.

    5. Aaron Ramessi - Straya
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Nay for me

      btw, congrats to you lot on the other night...defended well and killed us off when you got the chance...it feels like you will never have to eat your hate 😡 😀

        Rooney is all the United required ATM I think.

    What are people's thoughts on Kane?

    If he gets nailed on at Tottenham, 4.8 becomes amazing value.

      I'm tempted to get him as a medium term option to enable upgrades elsewhere. He'll no doubt be rotated during the busy xmas period though so will probably need to be sold once that happens.

    Is RVP likely to keep his place despite his erratic to abject form?

    I have 2 FT. Who should I get ird first?

    A Forster
    B Bertrand
    C Downing
    D Dat Guy

    Leaning towards C and D at the moment. Rumor that Downing is out for a while and Welbz playing time will be under threat from Giroud.

    Also means that I am playing dounle SOT defence against CIty *gulp

    Any suggestion?

      Giroud likely to start against WBA plus any more news on Walcott?

        Sorry Id say C unfortunately. Didnt mean to post on your thread.

      D by a mile. Giroud is back and will soon be starting up front again with Welbeck either dropped or pushed to the wing.

      1. Buck The Trent
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        and another FT?

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years

          Depends on finances and who you would like to bring in really
