We delve into the Gameweek 20 data this evening and serve up some of the most impressive numbers from New Year’s Day. QPR, Swansea, Aston Villa and Man City’s strikers arrive under the radar, whilst we also cast an analytical eye over in-form midfielders from Spurs, Leicester and West Brom.
So are most people doing Yaya to ADM? Seems like the best option to me with Sterling about the same potential
I went Sterling. I'm no longer sure it was the right move.
I'll probably go Sigurdsson to Di Maria next week though if he doesn't get injured.I think it is quite close. ADM maybe a little more of a gamble but with potentially a bigger points capability
I went Sterling just in case he finds the scoring touch. Ideally Di Maria doesn't do much and Sterling gets some points though.
Fabregas.
Well I have 3 Chelsea already so personally I cannot do this. I may have him in my wildcard though
Between Fab and ADM to get in for Yaya this week for me. Leaning towards Cesc.
Curious, would anyone be interested in more 3-way defensive rotations?
Have some great 3-way rotation down on paper with Villa, West Brom, Sunderland, Stoke, Newcastle, Palace, Swansea, West Ham all included. It's my day off, feel I should do something constructive 😉
& no it doesn't have Burnley 😉
I would love to know all about your three ways.
I see, when then looks like I'll have to give you the toure de France & teach all about the ménage à trois
Instead of Burnley Stoke do a better job with Villa and Sunderland at least they are a better team, and should any of your defenders dont play i would much rather have a stoke defender than a burnley one off the bench
That's a great point Trigger, I've been hovering around Cameron & Pieters also.
Cheers, Burnley's shots conceded both in & outside the box are atrocious .
Will look into this for sure
I've read a lot of literature saying that it's best to wait until Aguero is back to do your wildcard.........why not just have a Man United placeholder Rooney/RVP for the QPR and Leicester games and then bring Aguero back in for Hull at home?
that's a legitimate option - there are also other reasons to hold off the wc though. injuries, transfers, etc.
That's what I'm doing
How many clean sheets do you reckon Leicester could get from, STK, AVL and CRY
none

Not up to his usual standard, but still short and to the point with no extraneous detail. Three stars.
1
1.
They could get 3 but probably won't. Aston Villa and Palace would be best chances probably at a clean sheet. But they've been leaky all season so I'll say they get 1 clean sheet from those.
1
1 against Villa
2
Now with Messi in the mix, who are going to be your other two Chelsea players?
Luis & Matic
Ronaldo & Hazard
Come off it, Ronaldo's not going to Chelsea.
i think that's the point 😉
might only have 1 other, money will be tight
Flying Pig and Jesus Christ.
😆
Zab to Who? (WC GW 23)
a. Coleman
b. Trippier
c. Bertrand
d. Cresswell
C
C
Clyne
No player plays every game in this day and age anyway, in saying something Van Gaal tells us nothing.
Hope he stays in the team for the next 3 GW's. Then he's out of my team.
The way I read that was Wilson is going to get every chance to prove himself and Falcao and Van Persie's game time will be affected
must be fake - thats terrible
Looks pretty standard and boring, not liked one since the V on the chest one.
State of it
so, how many comments does FFS get each week? seems like a LOT.
Add the numbers on the home page. Lots is the answer.
Thousands upon thousands.
a) Austin + Eriksen/Sterling
b) Giroud + ChadliI'd go A
A and Eriksen.

Afternoon DZ 🙂
Evening mate 🙂
Well look what the cat dragged in 😉
How's are you mate?So when I click the reply button it sends me down to the bottom of the page, and I can't see the number of upvotes any posts have either... Any idea why TM/mods? On Safari on an ipad fwiw, first time I've had this problem.
@Zasa I'm good thanks, just got back to the hotel after doing a tour of LA!
@GK Happy new year to you too mate 🙂Looks like it's working after all 😕 😆
You're in LA?! My neck of the woods!
Sure am Walsh, here on holiday for a few more days then heading down to Vegas for 3 days 🙂
Enjoy it buddy 🙂
Thanks mate 🙂
LA tour 😯
Jealous man! You'll need to do a tour of the east soon, that's where it's at 😉
Here he is. Happy New Year Inns
Happy New Year Innsie. Did Boyd give you a new year present?
Sadly not 🙁 HNY Diva.
Neither did I. Don't mind too much, if I had started him I probably would have benched Kane rather than any of the attackers who subsequently scored 2 points. 🙂 Enjoy your West Coast visit!
My midfield is set except one, so now I will ask here and hope for some (improbable?) constructive feedback:
- Sigurdsson
- Downing
- Henderson (lacking money for Sterling or Coutinho)
- Cadli (lacking money for Eriksen)
- or another?
(my price limit here is 7.3)Downing
Chadli or Sig
If you have Kane , Siggy , his fixtures turn great in February and everyone who wildcards late will have him and it will hurt you not owning him
For the next few weeks Downing, then switch to Siggy as the Hammers' fixtures turn terrible.
You're looking for a mid up to 7.3 from Sigurdsson, Downing, Henderson, Chadli or another , is that right?
Personally I'd go Sigurdsson from these.Most been saying Sigurdsson as well. He does seem the best choice through the entire season in this price, even compared to all he is one of the best choices. What made me unsure was Swansea's next fixtures plus the fact that they have Bony + Ki away with their countries.
Start baines trippier or downing?
Downing
Thanks. Then the tough part. Baines or trippier in defense?
Trippier 😉
That's what I'm leaning towards. But how do you bench a 7.0 defender!? Baines will probably have a goal and assist ha!
I know it's tough to take price out of the equation completely when looking at who to start or sit but in reality you just need to do your best to pick who you think will get most points. It's not always the most expensive player.
Kane Williamson is fast becoming one of the premier, if not THE premier batsmen in world cricket , brilliant talent
Amen
Long way to go.
He will probably be New Zealand's best but he still has a big future to fulfill before becoming the worlds best
Risers/Fallers please
Just fallers, Krul kranjcar Ramsey Eto'o I think.
Krul doesn't rotate well with heaton , no good news here
Why havent you losers been over to my blog and made a donation yet?
The wildcard content is building fast, and the customisable fixture tool is top notch
Reading through these posts i see you guys are lightyears behind
http://whichtransfer.wordpress.comWhat sort of content?
Make a donation to find out. 🙂
Seemed like it front the post
From*
just wildcard stuff the hardcore amongst you will probably know it all already, there is a customisable xl spreadsheet in there that works really well with windows
So I won't know what 'stuff' is until I pay?
Donate is the word i would use
🙄
dust those wallets off, it all to a good cause, and im working very hard to add content, turning into a full time job
🙂 will have a look when I have a bit of cash coming in to me.
Shite blog lad
Shite human being ^
I presume a lot of people will be having Aguero/Kane in their WC teams. Who seems to be the best pick for the 3rd striker position?
I'm going to have a hard time letting go of Austin
RVP/Falcao depending on funds
Risers: None
Fallers: Krul Ramsey Eto'o Kranjcarthanks, suprised no risers this week but as stated must be loads of wc transfers
Krul that is good news
u plan to get him before Panti and Foster?
ah you will need to donate to find that out 😀
He'll do it now... 😉
People should make transfers before activating wildcard
FFFix & FPS had Krul, Rambo, Cisse, & Wanyama falling
How on earth are Eto'o and Kranjcar falling in price. I can't believe there are any active players that own them.
Krul becomes interesting...
Im definitely wanting him when fit. I'd be even happier if he misses out this week and falls another 0.1m. Unlikely though as he took forever to fall to 4.4
It's either Krul or Foster to pair with Pantillimon for me. Depends on how Pullis gets WBA playing.
Indeed.
Morning DZ
Just had a go at the scout pick challenge for the first time.
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2015/01/05/the-scout-picks-community-champion-vote-gameweek-21/?hc_page=1#hc_comment_9401091
Would appreciate if you check out the team and vote (if you like it)
cheers 😀
Wildcard team
guzan (heaton)
Terry Bertrand Wisdom Hutton (wasi)
Sanchez Hazard Silva Eriksen (boyd)
Costa Kane Austin
Will be going Silva Costa > sterling Kun when available
Any thoughtsSolid team. Any plans to get Di Maria in? Personally I'm obsessed with getting him.
Looks good, Kane and Eriksen though? Get sterling instead then swap silva to adm so youve got coverage from all the top teams (once di maria if fully fit ofc, conveniently when aguero is back it seems)
yes thinking of going
Sanchez silva Austin > ADM Kun Downing once Kun is baackDoes ADM play this week I was going to wait an extra week before I bring him in. I was think Chadli instead of Eriksen I like the way they are playing and ws even thinking Kane > Berahino
Thoughts on Cazorla as one week punt?
Like it I'm thinking Yaya to Santi then to adm the next week
Who would he replace?
Yoyo of course, who else
No 5th mid? Do it! I got Giroud for Bony. Going to bench Sterling/Silva to play him
Best aguero placeholder, Rooney, RVP or Falcao??
I'd go RvP but heard he's due to drop soon.
currently got RVP and had for a few weeks now, utds points are so spread can be very frustrating
what do you reckon for this non-wildcarded team for this GW, feel almost obessive now that I have TWO in my pocket
Guzan
Wisdom Azpi Hutton
Siggy Silva Hazard Sanchez
Kane Austin Costa
(Boyd Taylor Tomkins)
I really want to play Boydinho here to be honest but can't justify dropping anyone from the front 7
Also, Villa double defence worked last week, think they can keep another cleanie (lei) or should I swap out Hutton for Taylor (WHU)Hazard (c) BTW
I would keep lineup as is.
I'm playing Taylor as I have doubts Villa can keep the clean sheets coming. West Ham have lost 3 key players to Africa Cup of Nations. Reckon both Swansea and Villa concede though.
yeah. in that case I would probably choose to keep Hutton on and pray for attacking points.
Having benched Kane last week that Villa double d saved my GW!It's probably wise choice. I'm going with home team rather than worst opposition. It could well backfire.
Everything I post is being reviewed? Any idea why? :S

Out of context this seems like a family inane contribution to the page, but it needs to be taken as a continuation of the theme raised in the prequel. Alone it falls flat, but as part of the concert it is a worthy adagio to the main work. THREE STARS.
Swear words? That's why mine get "reviewed".
Nope :S, tried to ask trigger about his post a couple times and the my reply to Daniel saying I got Giroud. Didn't call him a donkey or anything 😀

The genius of the hanging "donkey", which leaves the reader unsure as to whether this refers to Triggerlips or Olivier Giroud. is simply sublime. Clearly this is Timtastic03 firing on all cylinders and certainly can be argued to be his greatest contribution so far to the comments on this page RECOMMENDED. FIVE STARS.I thought he meant Daniel. 😉
Everyone needs a good sub-editor Fitzy thanks for catching that !
Think outside the box.
Well if you must, I'd probably give this post a 1 out of 5 stars review.

This was a great post by TIMTASTIC03, with just enough mystery and suspense to keep us interested right to the end of the thread. I won't give any spoilers, but TM's addition at the end really raises the stakes here and leaves the viewer begging for more, and not a RATE MY TEAM for miles. Refreshing stuff. Four stars.Glad to help.

This is a rather poor and somewhat imitative post from Timtastic03's weak Late Emoji Period. Many people feel that he owes all his ideas here to INNSIE, and I for one agree. Not up to the high standard of his mid-career posts (see reviews passim)
POOR. ONE STAR.
a) Costa + Downing
b) Giroud + Chadli
c) Austin + EriksenI like B
A
Is Falcao a good punt?
I think he is decent punt but united's goals are so spreadout. I think he is still to hit anything like top form, perhaps it may take another month or two for that to happen
good fixtures though
How's this for a dead team (cup opponent) that achieved a GW rank of top 5K GW16, 1 transfer all season. This would embarrassing
De Gea
Fonte Wisdom Williams
Hazard Mata Carzola Silva
Rooney Jovetic Naismith
gulp!You could be in trouble.
A squad like that will probably win the Cup.
Who here is still in the FPL Cup?
ME! just about staved off the dead teams
yes just, by 1 point last week having trounced the first two
could be in trouble this week (see above)o/
Won on goals scored two weeks ago, and by 1 point last week 😆
Me 😎
o/ won't last long sadly, this euphoria will come to an end soon
Just realised my TV is 108m 😯
I'm jealous.
I now see what a difference TV makes at this stage...some of the WC teams I see don't seem possible and I know I couldn't afford!
😯
Going to be tough staying ahead of you Inns, but possible 😉
