I’m back again this week after a short break. Once again, I bring you the three differential attacking punts to consider  for the forthcoming Gameweek.  They all have great potential to score well this week and will hopefully be able to catapult you up the overall rankings. All Fantasy Premier League ownership and price figures were accurate as of December 1.

Danny Ings

Team: Burnley

Position: Forward

Price: 5.7

Ownership: 1.4% 

Danny Ings has finally found his feet in the Premier League after a slow start for a player that finished last season in the Championship with 22 goals. He now has four goals in his last five games and the most big chances amongst forward over the last four matches. He looks a top option for this week’s clash at home to Newcastle.

Kevin Mirallas

Team: Everton

Position: Midfielder

Price: 7.2

Ownership: 2.2% 

Mirallas has come back from injury with a bang for Everton, registering two goals and an assist in the last three games he’s played since his return. The midfielder was a popular midfield pick early in the season when he scored two consecutive goals, however injury cut him off our Fantasy radars.  His goal against Tottenham this week showed the excellent form he is in and the visit of Hull looks a perfect time to add to his points tally.

Radamel Falcao

Team: Manchester United

Position: Forward

Price: 10.5

Ownership: 2.2% 

For Manchester United’s easy home tie against Stoke I have opted for the on-loan Colombian over the in-form Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie. Underlying statistics were my chief reason as I noticed he registered two big chances in just 24 minutes off the bench against Stoke in Gameweek 13. In contrast, Van Persie and Rooney registered none in the same match. With Angel Di Maria picking up an injury against Hull a gap has opened up for Falcao to be reinstated into the starting XI.

    lol, "For Manchester United’s easy home tie against Stoke"

    I feel that is a bit harsh on Stoke

    Mirallas back is looking to dent Baines' potential. May get rid after QPR if it stays that way...

      I am with u...mirallas just refused to do overlap with gained

      Much the same as Ramsey not passing to sanchez

    My lineup for GW14. Would love some wise advice, lads 😀

    Guzan
    Baines / Azpi / Hutton
    Sanchez / Hazard / Siggy / Boyd
    Aguero / Austin / Welbeck

    Bench: McCarthy (GK), Yun, Moore, ADM

    Options:
    A) ADM > Downing (which gives me cash to do Welbz > Costa next GW)
    B) Save FT
    C) Other?

      For me it would depend on how much you got ADM for...he could very well decrease more within a week and if you have the FT now you may not want to lose the potential cash. Personally I traded him for Fab

    Mirallas would be nice.. Too bad there's no room for him.

    Ings - Already have Austin as a budget striker. One if enough for me.
    Falcao - Good short-term punt but Rooney provides more value long-term I reckon.
    Mirallas - Fantastic pick but I'm worried about his playing time. Went with Downing this week but will reevaluate getting him or Eriksen soon.

      It's the same for me. I have had Downing for a while now and not keen to give up. Might fancy a dance will Lamps should City sign him for the remainder of the season.

    Out of Wanyama, Downing, and Berahino, who would you guys bench? Pretty set on the rest of my team

      Wanyama s a 1 pointer waitng to happen. Arsenal wil score and he'll probably get a yellow card.

    If anyone is planning to bring Costa back in next week, Falcao is a brilliant punt.

    Falcao might not start if Rooney is fit. Can see Mata, carrick, Fellaini, and Herrera starting ahead of Falcao, with Rooney and RVP upfront. Herrara is my punt for the week

    Article says United played Stoke last week..

  11. A-VB
    • 11 Years

    Falcao ?
    Nahhh man..

    Wilfried Bony seems to be a way better option, not just for this week, but till new year and also 2m cheaper.

    If he starts I'm going with Falcao. I'd be a bit concerned with Mirallas as he's played 2 games in 4 days and could be benched.

  13. Woy of the Wovers

    I suspect Mirallas is nowhere on my midfield tables. That's probably because his stats are average and he's a rotation risk. Falcao looks like a crazy punt.

    Who is the best to captain out of Sanchez, Siggy and Mata?

  15. Redhulkster

    Solid article as expected 😉

    Hope falcao starts

    I will snap him up fair and square before the deadline

    Any thoughts folks?

    Elliot (Alnwick)

    Azpilicueta Chambers Bartley Wisdom (Steven Taylor)

    Jedinak Eriksen Hazard Sánchez (Boyd)

    Rooney Agüero(c) (Diego Costa)

      Rooney to flop!

        What about other folks? What replacement you have in mind?

    I have 2 FT's this week and don't want to make any changes (I wildcarded 2 weeks ago) and I don't foresee any required changes for next week either, I really like my team.

    The only maybe is that I have Costa. Should I swap to Rooney just for 1 week and then swap back? If I am not using the transfers anyway then it makes sense. Is there a better option for this week? Can afford any striker (bar RVP) and have Aguero and Welbz.
