QPR’s home hitman hogs the array of impressive numbers on show from the weekend, ably assisted by stellar showings from Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen. Elsewhere in our regular members’ statistical digest, we examine how Man City’s tactical tweaks influenced two of their key midfielders and analyse how a pair of returning United assets are hinting at major hauls as their minutes begin to build.
1FT - 0.4 itb. Suggestions?
Guzan
Clyne - Azpilicueta - Jagielka
Hazard - Sanchez - Downing - Siggy
Costa - RvP - Austin
Gilks -- Marney - Dummett - Kelly
Cheers guys
Keep FT

Liverpool: anyne bring any of their players given their kind fixtures?
maybe sterling etc..
LIV (bur-SWA-LEI-sun-avl-WHA)Sterling is due a rest and looks shattered right now. Lallana and Skrtel could be decent options.
All fixtures are bad for Liverpool.
Sterling is on my watchlist. Not overly keen on any of the other options at this stage.
Just got Sterling in for Siggy
think well need t sacrifice that 1st good game they display b4 we bring in sterling. obviosuly might be too late as was sanches when he had that massive haul ag burnley if memory serves/
I can't see any massive hauls from sterling but I can see regular 7-15 pointers , AdM is my next big target , he and Giroud the only 2 players I really want now but just can't fit them in
im lookin at Silv or mayb doubling mci def. Giroud is the other option given QPR. or even debuchy.
Risers/fallers?
Hutton is the sole survivor of my GW1 squad. Of all the season keepers, I never thought it would be him 😎
Sigurdsson is my last survivor 🙂
Me be time to get off the Siggy train
I still have about 6 from my original squad
6 really? Must be nice having them FT's lol
Screw the FTs. WC still intact 😎
Same here Hutton the last man standing ( Costa left and come back )
Yeah I ditched Costa that week too lol
Pants, Hutton, Clyne and Siggy for me.
Pants from Day 1? Must be nice to finally see some justification in your pick. Probably should have held Clyne myself but at the time I made the right decision to bail.
Yeah, had Pants and Mannone to begin with. Wish I still had Mannone tbh. Pants/Green rotation ain't doing the business.
QPR are shocking defensively. Kinda regret getting Yun even if he is only 3.9 😆
Still got 5.
Krul, Foster, Wisdom, Naylor, Fab.Nice. I ditched Krul on my WC and glad I did. Got in FOrster and now Guzan. Fab went for Hazard so a good trade there too though I kinda wish I kept Fab all the same 😆
Ditched Costa for Hazard. Fab wearing the armband tonight.. yikes 🙂
Fab interesting. I went Haz (c) Lot of people looking for Chelsea to save their GW lol
Haz seems to do his high scoring at home, Fab more consistent away. There's a lot of captain coverage in that game so as long as I don't lose any ground.
I was going Costa but then the logical part of my head said that f I captained Haz over Costa last week there realy should be no reason why I would reverse that this week, bar this away day voodoo. Haz on pens too.
I'd be delighted if Haz outscores Costa. 😉
Hat trick each will do me 😉
Hazard (c) next week?
If he delivers again this week definitely i would say. Tough choices. I have a few options that may be good but no real solid captaincy choice. Weeks like this you miss Aguero 😆
I only have Siggy and Gilks as my survivors and I haven't used my WC 😯
Wisdom, Siggy and Guzan for me
Guzan is a great keeper to have. Who did you play over those bad games?
Mannone until he got dropped. Switched to Panti since then(best decision so far )
Great move that. Who would have forseen panti racking up that many points 😆
I know right...I hope it continues, his ownership is still low
I have Costa and Caulker!
Foster (Given)
Cahill - Zabaleta - Jagielka (Dummet, Bruce)
YYT - Hazard - Barkley - Siggy (Quinn)
Austin - Costa - Lukaku
2 FT and 1.4 ITB
What transfer should i make in order to not waste the FT? Thanks 🙂
From bottom of last page.
Best trade/s for me??
2FT's & £1.4itb
Pantilimon
Baines, Clichy, Dummett
Sigurdsson, Hazard, Downing, Sánchez, Yaya Touré
Costa, Austin
(Alnwick, Sakho, Hutton, Wisdom)
Sakho > Kane and save the other. Bench Downing?please reply on next page to this ^
Cheers 🙂Disregard. Had a brain explosion. Post here! 😉
Sakho to Kane looks good for this GW and yes save the other FT.
thumbs up
Missed the price rise... again.
Repost:
What do you think? Save FT? 1 FT 2.5 ITB
Courtois
Clichy Baines Naylor
Downing Hazard Sanchez Siggy
Bony(c) Austin Costa
Elliot Duff Marney HuttonOr Duff > Bavies?
Interesting. I'm gonna need a bench throughout the Christmas period so I'll give that a thought. Cheers.
Any chance Hazard gets rested tonight? The way this week's going for me, I won't be surprised.
No
Could well happen. This would be the one he'd rest him I think
Stoke away is one of the toughest matches Chelsea will face. Zero chance of him being rested.
Chelsea will also have to play 3 matches in the next 6 days. If he were to be rested, it'd be the second match (vs West Ham).
no, at most limited time during GW19
Chelsea had rested enough!!!
What would you do about this lot? Save the FT as I don't think there's an area that needs urgent sorting out? Possibly Baines, Siggy could be replaced, and I need to get Pants man to rotate with Adrian ahead of tough fixtures.
1 FT, 0.2 ITB
Adrian McCarthy
Baines Azpi Chambers Taylor Hutton
Sanchez Yaya Hazard Siggy Downing
Bony Giroud AustinSave. GTG!
Thanks, I would really love Eriksen and City defence coverage though.
Mmmm... can you afford Chambers > Clichy?
Clichy is far from being nailed.
But he will play or not play so another from your bench will replace him. No big deal imo.
If he's ruled out...
Siggy > ???

Should I save and do Lukaku + Siggy --> Austin + 10.7 next week??Feel for ya Puyol, hate it when luck deserts you.
Think you are good this week and like your plan... though I am keeping Siggy.Yeah. Sanchez (C), Bony 1 point, Lukaku OG, Rangel 1 pointer instead of 6/5 like the other swans defenders, Dummett losing 5 points in the space of minutes 🙁 I could go on and on.....
I had the opposite happen... for once.
Couldn't afford Siggy > Eriksen who I would have captained so saved transfer and captained Austin.
Would be tempted to ditch lukaku this week but I'm holding jags for Stoke so you should probably do the same With him
Yeah, and my planned Lukaku replacement (Austin) has Arsenal away
go 3-4-3
keep Lukaku, Baines for this Gameweek (STK home) then look to ship both out.
This week transfer out Siggy and bring in Eriksen.
if you want a -4 hit, bring in Pantilimon.Can't afford Eriksen. I think Baines is a season keeper. I don't need the funds and people seem to forget that one player fouled in the box and Baines will be on double digits.
Everton won't win a penalty each gameweek! Everton defence is disorganised this season, therefore the chance of collecting CS points on Baines is considerably low, furthermore, with Mirallas in the side Baines won't get a sniff of the ball. 7.2m is a heavy shirt for a defender. Baines points come in streaks, it will happen again, just not yet.
When do prices change? Will Kane rise?
Damn!!!
😆
In about 6 seconds 😉
Rise: Kane
Fall: Mirallas, MulumbuCheers.
Finally 😆
Southampton clean sheet this week: Good sign for the future or dead cat bounce? I know the fixtures are still pretty rough, but having kept Clyne this long I'm kinda reluctant to sell. I guess my question is this: Long term, do you think Southampton are a top 3 defense in the league?
Southampton are a good side, but those fixtures are just abysmal.. Still they were unlucky not to come away with a few cleanies out of them too so I reckon they might nick one n the next few
I wouldn't sell Clyne if I still had him , he always looks a menace and they are a solid team I wish I kept him when I sold him gw13
I cant see why anyone would sell Clyne, season keeper
Very unlucky not to have atting returns in last few weeks, hed due someDefinitely a season keeper. Glad I started with him, glad I kept him.
My first FT, still regretting why i sell him.
Mostly fixtures I guess. I was thinking I could swap to Zabaleta and then get Bertrand or Fonte in the January wildcard. But Thanks all, probably doesn't make sense to bin nailed on attacking defenders who you have on the cheap.
Cheers, that's kinda my thinking although it's not like the fixtures are any prettier for at least a month.
If you had him from the start at 5m it was always silly to sell
And Southampton's fixtures turn great around GW22/23, right when WCs will be getting played, so it'd be silly to sell now and then buy back for 0.4 more in a few weeks.
Yes I think they are a top 3 defense. They attack and defend as a team. They've gone through a rough summer and I feel that has strengthened the bond and belief within the time. Probably won't be as resilient as the start of the season...but if you got Clyne at 5.0 at the start of the season, I don't see why you should sell him.
Sterling or Silva moving forward and why ye think so?
Looks like Sterling is proving to be a bit more popular all of a sudden?silva. overall city are a better team, he'll get more from those around him, his assists will be converted, he'll be fed better opportunities.
when dans back maybe sterling but over xmas silva all the way
Kane probably my best transfer of the season considering it was 7 weeks ago.
Downing was mine I reckon considering the value for money. Austin is up there too after his haul
My best signing too , his allowed so much funds elsewhere every time I look at my team on paper it looks too good to be true 🙂
Mine was Pelle when I got him in at 7.5 for a hit at GW 4 before anyone really had him.
Aah... Remember that time 🙂
Guzan is the 3 point specialist
I've been happy with his 3 points for some reason 😆
Because he's getting 3 points with conceding lol
I'm sitting at 9.9k (4.8k before GW started) with Costa and Hazard remaining. Since lots have (C) one of them, do I want them to do well? Will 5+ points from each of them see me drop out of the top 10k?
Not everyone has them, think your position will be fairly stable. Its their dfenders you have to worry about
Yeah. But I was looking at top 10k (C) and Hazard and Costa are up their which worries me. I guess I better hope Stoke will score 😀
Cant imagine why anyone would capt a chelsea player away to Stoke, medness
because Stoke hasnt been keeping cs?
Costa 14% (2nd most captained player in top 10k behind Yaya)
Hazard 8% (5th most captained player in top 10k)
I think you'll be fine. Autosubs could be a kick in the nuts though, Siggy/Clichy out could mean Clynes, Boyds and Naylors off the bench.
I have Dummett (1 point) coming on 🙁
Played him as first sub over Marney. (2 points)
never want your players to not score points. thats cray cray
So is using the term 'cray cray'.
So did Sterling do enough to warrant investment as our 4th Mid. I missed the match.
Lallana looked more threatening
And Markovic more threatening than both.
Cheers. Will hold off on that transfer then. 😉
Who watched the game? Sanchez look alright? According to my app he didn't have a shot
weakest I've seen sanchez. Cazorla was brilliant.
Arsenal barely touched the ball. Sanchez looked tired.
Went missing in the big games as usual.
FT hazard or silva in this week?
or is it worth -4 to get them both (would mean losing Oscar probably so I suppose can;t decide until tomorrow)Can see -4 paying off with those moves
(current MF = yaya downing sanchez oscar wagamama*)
(*he be for the chop)Hazard. West Brom away will be tough for City.
I can't wait for the Chelsea game , got Ivan, Haz and (C)osta to go , would love it to 0-3 Costa brace and Assist, Haz pen , Ivan 2x assist ... not beyond the realms of possibility
I'd like a 3-2 Stoke win lol
Would take that as long as Costa gets both goals lol
Lol Costa is more likely to get 2 yellows
fifteen goals from Oscar would see me shoot up the rankings....
Lol , it will probably be 1-1 Shawx and Willian assisted by Bojan and Matic, everyone loses except Austin and Yaya cappers
Same. Have Costa (c), Hazard and Azpi.
Need something good to happen, having a total mare of a GWI was thinking of you the other day , I would have thought you would have had a good week , was pleased for you when I see Kolarov do well , even Nasri got the CS point , assuming you did the hit , surely you beat the 8 point hit right ?
Any changes should i make for gameweek 18?
Heaton (Hamer)
Huttton Bertrand Jags (Chambers) (Dummett)
Hazard Silva Downing Sanchez (Boyd)
RVP (c) Austin Rooney (c)
0.1 ITB 1 FT** RVP (c) Austin Rooney
*** RVP (c) Austin Rooney (vc)
capt Haz Sanchez was not in form today.
Rooney > Bony/Benteke?
FPL has exploded with options these last two weeks.
Crazy, right? Giroud, Benteke, Kane, Cazorla, Zabaleta, etc.
Benteke, Silva
Pelle*
You will want a Saints defender on the Jan WC. Getting Bertrand back.
I shipped Clyne for Zaba as it was the only way to bring in Zaba for free. Hugely regretting it. I should've found another way.
I did Baines to Mangala this week despite him bring on 4 yellows and I'm honestly glad I took the risk. He's a great defender although people have been harshing him lately he--and the ref disallowing a goal--has kept City solid at the back.
If I were you I would be frustrated that I didn't get Zaba over Mangala. Surely you considered him!?
I went Baines to Zab myself. Just could not take the Baines lack of production anymore...
I actually didn't, I've always rated Mangala and I was just waiting for when it seems like he's cemented a starting place and I think the time is now. Zaba is an excellent pick however but I wanted the less obvious choice.
Fair enough. But it did cost you 5 points. Zab (11) Mangala (6)
5 points.... For now. Mangala goal is on the cards 😎
actually I think everyone has lightened up on him. love Baines but he's 6 matches no pts. very good move
went for Hart
Pricey but good option
desperately need Siggy to be fit..if he's not I'm left with 1 usable sub..
AVL Def:
anyone thinking of getting Clark?
might be going triple avl defence given their fav fixtures.
assumin guzan and hutton ownedDon't go triple Villa defence.
Done! Sakho > Kane and saving the other Tr.
Bench correct or play Hutton over Dummett?
Panti
Baines, Clichy, Dummett
Sigurdsson, Hazard(c), Sánchez, Yaya Touré
Costa, Austin, Kane
(Alnwick, Downing, Hutton, Wisdom)Can't see Costa playing. Costa ➡ Giroud
Would play Hutton personally. Newcastle were atrocious at the back yesterday, though could have escaped with a CS.
Cheers. Will do 🙂
I've owned Eriksen at all the wrong times this season.
Chadli continues to troll me 🙁
