Rant RP. 😕
I hate Rooney! 😡
Why the feck did he say that he would be fit for Stoke....that made me get him. 🙁
Any ways moving on, Rooney ➡ Benteke/Costa? (if Rooney is ruled out)
Never listen to Dr Rooney.
I got him for the same reason as you. And captaining Gylfi has set my week up for a third consecutive fail 🙁
Didn't see the Villa game so don't know how Benteke looked.. Who are your other strikers?Got a frontline of Aguero - Rooney - Austin atm.
That's like a carbon copy of my game week.
Annoyed as I was stung by Rooney doing the same last season and should have learned
- The Top 10k Template
I was interested in how the template has evolved over previous game weeks, so I decided to take a look at it this week.
According to top 10k stats, the template team based on ownership is:
Foster (15.4%)
Chambers (60.8%) Baines (46.1%) Taylor (29.4%)
Sigurdsson (83.5%) Sánchez (81.2%) Fábregas (64.4%) Hazard (42.3%)
Agüero (84.7%) Austin (42.4%) Bony (27.1%)
This is obviously a little different to how next weeks will be, as it is based on starting players. For example, Costa has been benched by most, so he isn't included in the template XI. Southampton defenders are also highly owned, but have been benched by many.
Essentially, the players you don't have in this XI you want and need to score poorly, otherwise you could be in trouble.
I only have 5 of those players
Not necessarily a bad thing, it's always good to have differentials. I'm sure if I added in subs you would have a lot more.
I'm guessing only Clyne and Costa
8 here 😯 but my team sucks and blows simultaneously
Clearly not as much as you believe if the 10,000 best players seem to like your picks.
this.
the template is so strong in the top 10k that falling within +/- 5 of top10k average barely puts you anywhere
Same. It's a little worrying because that's a good team 🙂
I have 9 of them. lol
Only Chambers and bony missing from my team.I'm guessing you have Costa in place of Bony? Usually, Costa would have made it to the template GW team.
I had till last week.
Did Costa>Rooney for -4 this week. 🙁 😳Sorry mate, that's rotten. I was tempted to remove him for Piggy but held my ground.
Well done. I just thought that Rooney would be able to shake that knock off.
My friend did that, and then did another -4
Rooney -> Bony
Well, it appears I have a template team.
Surprised that Haz has such high ownership already.
ADM injury
I have 7
I'm so damn template it's scary. Swap Foster & Taylor for Guzan & Terry and that's my team. I guess captaining Hazard is what will determine a green or red arrow tonight.
A few more players will start performing soon I reckon, give us more options
Déjà vu.
Some players will arise but it seems to take the place of players previous in the template.
Sterling and Sánchez are an example, the former became unpopular as the latter hit form. Di Maria's wavering returns and injury means Hazard is now popular.
I think we'll have a template for most of the season, and the real game will be how you change your team to account for it.
I have them all, except Fábregas, Bony and Foster.
I have 8 of those. I think to think I got on most of them a week or two before others though. 🙂
Have all of them except Fab and Taylor.
Will be interesting to see if Chelsea defense doesn't have high ownership or they are fragmented among ivan, azpi, Terry and cahill
What's the difference between ignorance & apathy?
I don't know & I don't care...
Can't worry about what the rest are doing / those things which we cannot control.
300th place or 3 millionth place we just have to pick the best 11 we can each week & go from there.
I agree it's slightly too early for this game theory malarky, but for those of us in that 10K data set, it's in the back of our minds on how we can push up.
i have nine of them!
only goalie & chambers is different
I have 9 out of those XI - that pleases me due to my focus on ownership.
I guess no real movement for you unless you get your captain spectacularly right/wrong
I only have 5 out of those 11. It's been good to see Siggy and Austin go quiet this week, now just need to see Baines and Sanchez go quietly now. Although at home vs Hull it's very unlikely Baines wont score well.
This is excellent stuff, thanks!
Please keep this update ongoing if you can...
As someone just outside the top 10K, I really can't see any way to get ahead to the top 1K where I want to finish.
Go to fpldiscovery.wordpress.com prior to every GW you will know
I have 8 of those
I have no chance of making top 10k then
I don't have Sanchez, Chambers and Bony.
No Sanchez can hurt me or take me to the top. 🙂Yikes, the only difference for me here is:
- Forster
- Fabregas (I have Chadli)
- Bertrand and Costa on the bench (but I guess many others will have them and benched)
Somehow getting a Chelsea defender would be a huge advantage then it seems.
I have 7. Im happy with that as Im not sure Id want the full set to be honest.
great post. thanks... for today only worried with Fabregas, all other differentials played yesterday
I've got Heaton instead of Foster, Clyne/Yun instead of Naylor, Downing instead of Cesc, and Welbeck for Austin. There's a lot of group think going on in the top 10k since a lot seemed to have done the same Bony move as me last week. Hopefully a differential Benteke will fire me up.
I have all of that team except fister naylor and fab (instead i have guzan azpi and yaya)
There should really be two top 10k template teams, one in 3-4-3 formation (41.2%) and the other in 3-5-2 formation (25.4%).
The 3-4-3 template team would be as quoted by Rodallegabomb above, with Krul (27.6%), Duff(21.0%), Wisdom (19.3%) and an unknown midfielder on the bench - I suspect that this might well be Boyd.
The 3-5-2 template team would include Downing (30.8%) instead of Bony, and would have Diego Costa (43.0%) on the bench instead of the midfielder.Actually, the template forward line hasn't changed, it's still Aguero, Austin and Costa.
It's just that the Costa owners in the top 10k (who still outnumber the Bony owners) benched him and played a 3-5-2 formation for one game-week only.
I have all but Foster, Chambers, Naylor & Fab. Though I have Wisdom in place for Foster, Fabi in place for Naylor & Oscar in place for Fab.
This is worrying in my case because I'm sitting at a measly 100k rank 🙁
Little movement to be had here.
I have 8!
@Juventus Nope
If I did, I wouldn't think I'd fall xD
omg, I went up 70k after last night, I think my season starts here 🙂
Down 80k tonight...
😉nah, big boys left
There must be a few Boyd and Hutton autosubs out there to temper that optimism I fear, nevertheless congrats
thanks 🙂
Any news on rose, anyone know if he's likely to be fit for NEXT GW? (GW 15)
Some early ideas on my team would be nice. 🙂
Foster - Hamer
Baines - Naylor - Hutton - Saylor - Moore
Sanchez - Hazard - Sigurdsson - Fabregas - Marney
Aguero - Austin - Rooney
Got 1 FT and 0.6m in the bank.Save
Definitely
Nice team. I'd probably save.
Fab yellow? What would you do?
Thinking Eriksen if that happens.
Bank
watch out news for Rooney,otherwise u can save the FT
Fab > one of the Liverpool boys.
Sterling and Eriksen on my radar.
trollmasters!
Save is the consensus then.
Cheers all.
save. you might need if Fab gets YC
Would you do Hendo > Downing on a FT? Was nailed down to do it until I saw Henderson with a goal. Is Henderson likely to get more attacking returns? If the transfer sounds good, is there a better option for 6.1 and below?
Cheers
I'm ranked 24K now with Baines, Hazard, Sanchez and Kun(C) to go will I still keep my position?
Kun scoring well protects it.
Will all come down to Aguero.. I hope he comes good tomorrow as I too have him as cap
I'm 22k with Chambers Baines Sanchez Fabregas Aguero...
Reckon you'll beat me?I'm 14k reckon you beat me Aguero(c) Coleman Chambers Azpi Hazard Sanchez
I'm 7k, reckon you beat me Aguero(c) Baines, Azpi, Chambers, Hazard, Fabregas, Sanchez?
NOPE maybe if Goalman out scores Baines...fab to bank and gets sent off
Most likely. Similar position to me, I'm 25k with Agüero (c), Hazard, Fábregas, Sánchez an Chambers.
So I really need an Aguero blank...
Owned by 84.7% (top 10k) captained by 54.7% (top 10k) so very much so.
there or thereabouts. that's pretty much the top 10k position.
as in, the same position as most in the top 10k.
Depends a lot on Fab v Haz - but if Aguero does ok so should you.
Id be hoping to climb. I have agu(c) haz baines sanchez terry and am expecting big things. 93rd overall atm after a red arrow yest on 20pts
I'm 11k with Baines, Terry, Mirallas, Hazard and one Aguero. I feel i have a good chance of sticking.
Thanks all, will report back to this tonight 🙂
Anyone else think that planning for more than 3 gwks ahead is useless? Too many things change.
yes and no. plan a transfer now to work for 6 weeks (as in you need to make sure today's transfer will still be a good transfer in 3, 4, 5 weeks); but don't plan transfers that far out.
Agreed.
Morning!
Best def for max 4.0?
A) Yun
B) Steven Taylor
C) other?A
yun
Thanks!
I took a -4 but didn't bring in Rooney
#FlairThe flair bar seems to get lower every year.
And yet still I limbo under it with ease.
Haha
😆
Marvellous 😆
Hey greenwindmill, what do you make of Newcastle's chances against Chelsea on the weekend? I'm debating whether to keep Cisse or not.
Well he's all set for another 90 minutes I think - definitely still the number one striker and if we score he's the most likely at the moment. In recent year's we've given Chelsea some shocks but I'm not convinced this year if I'm honest (although I do tend towards pessimism when it comes to our chances) Having said that, Sissoko and Colback available again will help.
If I'm honest I think there are better options out there given our fixtures. I'm more than happy to be proved wrong though 🙂Thanks, that's helpful 🙂
😆
I did bring him in for a hit and am 4 points better off
Oh right, you're one of these gits getting Boyd off the bench AGAIN then 😡
I didn't get him the first time, I had Marney then 🙁
I'm all set for another round of the auto-subs-should-only-get-half-points debate that crops up every time this kind of thing happens!
Fair play to Mark though - he played Boyd and benched Chadli. He's in the top 500 as it stands.
But you could have not made the transfer and just played boyd?
But I was never going to do that. Would've got Bony if I was getting up for the lineups.
Lol I played Marney instead of selling Costa. Would have definitely played Boyd
sold boyd and tomkins before this gameweek...( also sold wanyama and adm ) to bring in siggy erikson jedinak and wisdom for a cheeky -16 #soflair
Foster - Krul
Baines - Clyne - Hutton - Yun - Naylor
Hazard - Eriksen - Boyd - Siggy - Downing
Aguero - Costa - Bony
Thought? 1FT 0.5itb
Save imo
Cheers.
Good team but Clyne and Krul to go.
You gave cover for Krul though.
Clyne to Cresswell or Chambers?Thanks man. Think I won't bother replacing Krul and keel him as Foster's fixtures are good. I am, however, more concerned about Clyne. Not that interested in Chambers as I imagine debuchy will be back soon, right? As for Cresswell, well I'm not sure about WHM clean sheet credentials. Ideally I would have got Azpi in but he rose 🙁
Chelsea player a good choice if you can afford.
Chambers has played all year because someone from Arsenal always injured. At 5.0 he is still a good choice because he can play central. Cheers.
Any ideas where to spend the spare 3.2m itb? 1 FT
Guzan
Baines, Coleman, Clyne
Hazard, Sanchez, Siggy,Downing
Aguero, Bony, Austin
McCarthy, Boyd, Duff, Moore
Upgrade Moore?Costa for Bony
Um. Worth considering. A little concerneed tho with lack of bench options over x mas.
Bony> Costa would leave me 0.5 to upgrade Moore I suppose.
Hutton for Moore would help your defence for next game week..
I have a similar team, but chose to keep Costa for this very reason! Nothing else to do with the spare cash from a Costa to Bony/Benteke move.
Thanks. My spare cash came from ADM > Siggy this week. I wasn't planning on getting Costa till Jan WC but I'm reconsidering that now.
I'm thinking about a Costa to Benteke move, to enable Siggy/Downing to Silva.
Also looking at offloading Sanchez to Ramsey (will assess after tonight.)Could work . I will never touch Silva again. He wastes too many transfers
Yeah, he can be frustrating. I'd like more City but not sold on Yaya at 10.7m so Silva an option - as is doubling up on Arsennal mids.
Moore>Hutton or Clyne>Azpil
Both Good options. My plan was to ride Clyne out and replace Moore I think. I have Guzan for Villa so may go Naylor after he has served his suspension.
I was in a world of pain at GW8 was ranked at 300k now upto 14k right now.. Happy days
Well done!
congrats! hopefully you can keep it up for the rest of the season 😉
Thanks gents
345k gw7 to 11k now. Few green arrows makes you smile, doesn't it?
Alway someone better..! Good work mate. I was 34th in my money league now sitting on top! loving life lol
What's you score total right now?
Best move here chaps?
Bank 1.0m, 2 freebies
A) Yun -> Caulker
B) Krul -> Guzan
C) Bony -> Austin (enables Baines next week)
D) Albrighton -> Jedinak
Krul, Elliot
Terry, Chambers, Hutton, Wisdom, Yun
Sanchez, Hazard, Siggy, Downing, Albrighton
Aguero, Costa, Bony
Bank 1.0m, 2 freebiesC for me as it enables Baines next week.
Austin being a beast at home helps as well.B rest looks fine
B
Krul to Guzan, or Albrighton to boyd, or save.
C
Man City defence to become essential after next week?
lei, CRY, wba, BUR, SUN,But who to get?
Kompany injured. And other the other defs are continuously rotated.this...
Hart?
I see Zabaleta as nailed and can chip in with the occasional assist.
Endless rotation normally keeps me away from Man City defenders. Especially in December.
... and this ...
I might take a dab at Kolarov again.
... but absolutely not this.
Live a little. 😀
How about Demichelis at 5.9?
How about not?
Wondering what to do from here now. Sterling is giving me problems but have a lot of money in the bank. Save or get Sanchez?
Fabianski, Gilks
Baines, Bertrand, Chambers, Hutton, Wisdom
Fabregas, Sterling, Sigurdsson, Downing, Marney
Costa, Aguero, Austin
1 FT, 3.2 ITBBerty>Azpil for me.
This
Wait for Fabregas to play but, yes, you want Sánchez.
Team for next weak
Heaton
Baines wisdom yun
Sanchz fab hazard siggy
Aguero bony austin
Clyne marney naylor
1ft 0.9 in bank
1)heaton to guzan
2)clyne to azpi
3) saveSave or get Guzan maybe.
Crystal Palace 17 shots, Aston Villa 5 shots..
Boyd 1 shot
..... Some guys in my ML have double villa-def and Boyd since Rooney/Costa isn't playing..My ML leader has Tomkins and Hutton. Very annoying.
I do. And Naylor 😛
Palace must have been taking loads of pot-shots. Only 5 on target.
I would be interested to know how the tables would look if there were no captains picks.
Recently a lot of luck in making right choices.I've had 128© points this season so far, killing me.
Same problems.
Hopefully it'll even out over the season, which means we are both due some some fortune soon!
With you there mate!
Best keeper moving forward...
Guzan, Fabianski, Foster ?
What happened to paddy power tournament?
Question re Ultimate FPL. Stick on Bony (c) 12 points or twist to Aguero and lose 6 of those? Some context am 13th in the overall ranking after yesterday and scored 49 points, will lose 5 of those to bring in Lloris and Terry for DDG and Caulker. Leaving me on 44 with Lloris, Terry, Fabregas, Wellbeck and Aguero to play. Further 6 points could go with Bony.
Other options would be obv to capt Fab or Wellbeck and could sub in DiMichellis for Caulker instead of Terry
Have bench options of Clyne, Lamela and Chadli but none of them will come on.
Thanks in advance for any inputTwist to Kun; a single goal will break even for you, plus any BAPs. Good luck, and well done on the rank (and the round score!) Hope you can keep it up 🙂
Thanks lads. Am thinking twist too as its a bit early to go completely against the grain. Will obv wait for the teamsheets before a final decision although can see myself mulling over this all day lol
Hope you twisted...
You have to switch that to Aguero I think. Good luck!
How has Rooney still not got his scan done after getting injured on Saturday?
Is it a case of them thinking it to be a minor knock and later realising that it is more serious than initially thought?
Any latest news on the length of his absense?Howard, Gilks
Cahill, Clyne, Chambers, Wisdom, Naylor
Sanchez, Downing, Hazard, Siggy, Marney
Aguero, Austin, Giroud,
3.6m in account, 2 ft
Depending how Giroud goes..
I am thinking either..
A. Stick with him and get in Baines for Clyne + Change Howard-Guzan
B. Bring back Costa right away + change Howard-Guzan
What do ye think..
A if giroud plays close to 90 and looks sharp
Fab
Ivan dummett wisdom yun duff
Hazard Sanchez fab siggy Marley
Kun Rooney Austin
1ft .9 itb any thoughts on where to from here. Was going great but two reds in a row looming.
I had Boyd at my starting 11 and yesterday evening i benched him . Feck it.
He's a little fecker two best returns when people get him off the bench 🙁
When' s DC's flag going to be removed then....
Thoughts on Demichelis at 5.9m? City's run of matches until Jan is amazing, and with Kompany possibly out for a bit he could offer great coverage 😀
Would rather an Arsenal defender for assured starts.
9 years, 5 months agolucky i bought in bartley last week as a short term cover in case baines not playing..now i have bartley off the bench for rooney 🙂
