Anyone considering playing more than 3 defenders? Not a massive difference in variance between the highest scoring defenders vs mids vs forwards.

Scratch that.
No clean sheets or attacking returns(yet) from any of those today.

An ultra attack force of Aguero, Kane, and Lukaku is looking tasty though. :cool:

Cypher_sounds · 22-11-2015 2:26pm

I'm taking a little comfort in my poor season so far after spotting how distinctly similiar my scores have been for most of the season so far.

Gameweek 1 28
Gameweek 2 41
Gameweek 3 66
Gameweek 4 42
Gameweek 5 45
Gameweek 6 49
Gameweek 7 47
Gameweek 8 97
Gameweek 9 53
Gameweek10 45
Gameweek11 52
Gameweek12 51
Gameweek13 50

A few weeks of 60s and then 70s scores would make it look all the more impressive:p

SantryRed · 22-11-2015 7:22pm

Think I'm gonna hold off on Aguero until Dec 12th when they play Swansea at home.

TO bring him in, I need to get rid of Sanchez, but his next two games are Norwich away and Sunderland home. I just can't do it before those two games!

Moves will be:

Ighalo -> Aguero
Sinclair -> Wanyama
Sanchez -> Barkley

Will probably make no transfer this week.

Then Sinclair -> Wanyama. And then the following GW do the double.

This is all injury permitting though :pac:

Invincible · 23-11-2015 12:05am

More time for tinkering next Saturday, deadline not until 2pm.

dahat · 23-11-2015 12:13am

Just been going through various Twitter feeds and it seems Hazard has asked José to play him at 10.

Very interesting move if this stays that way as convinced he is a far far better player in that position.

DulchieLaois · 23-11-2015 2:02pm

had simpson as 3rd defender sub whereas Cresswell as 2nd and is due to replace Dariam, feel horrible as its 10 points gone

Know the feeling. I had Simpson in until Friday and put Bellerin back in. Right thing to do but sucks when it works out like that!

I don't think we should judge too much from this Zagreb seem happy to let Arsenal do what they want and are offering very little threat for them to have to worry about. It is good to see some goal threat from Ozil though!

I'm actually looking at Stoke from next week. Ruddy isn't doing the business so gonna get in Butland. Their fixtures are great.

Never got the chance to make the transfer due to an injury. Net result of 30 points lost. So frustrating!

ScummyMan · 27-11-2015 3:59pm

I think Deulofeu is a great option this week, I think he's going to outscore Barkley, and you can quote me on that.

I was at Goodison last weekend and he was absolutely excellent going forward, could have had a couple of assists and a goal on another day. Barkley's two tap ins brought in the points, but going forward i think Deulofeu is far more likely to be involved.

I thought that myself from MOTD, great to have it confirmed by someone at the game. Was almost talked into Coutinho but the injury doubts pretty much rule that idea out. So I'm torn between banking and going for Deulofeu.

Dearg81 · 27-11-2015 6:00pm

Speaking of Deulofeu - Why was he not given an assist for the 1st goal in FPL last week? I think his shot was saved by the keeper before the goal was scored so it looked like as assist to me.

Opta deemed the 'shot' to be a pass therefore no assist. How exactly they read his mind nobody has yet clarified.

Maybe they think he's so good if it was a shot it would have had to go in! I reckon Steve in accounting had him as captain and they thought it would be funny to not let him have the points and he finished off their milk that they clearly had marked in the fridge so he deserved it.

Last minute question before going on weekend with no internet access...

Have to pick 3 out of these 4:

Moreno (Swansea H)
Zouma (Spurs H)
Bellerin (Norwich A)
Rojo (Leicester A)

Advices are more than welcome!

Haha I'm kinda glad they did in a way as it will slow his price rises. I'm thinking of getting him in next week too.

Moreno for sure he shouldn't even be lumped in with that group!

Zouma would probably be the one to drop imo.

Bench Rojo, there's a good chance he won't start. I'd also be pretty confident Leicester will score at home.

I'd bench Rojo. I think Chelsea and ManU will concede but more chance of Leicester scoring more, Rojo is a bit of a yellow magnet, and Zouma has more goal threat

bezuaua · 27-11-2015 6:52pm

and the winner is... marcos rojo! Thanks!

Moreno bellerin defo.. Rojo may not start but zouma I think will defo concede at Spurs

I have a simlar problem, need 4 of the following 5, Bellerin,Smalling,Kolorov,Alderweld or Bolasie who to drop?

Wamble · 27-11-2015 9:07pm

Is there a source that has the team news quicker than others? Just curious. With no early game, was wondering if we could get a peek before the 2pm deadline.

No is the simple answer, you will often hear strong rumours and there's no harm being online at 5 to 2 but the official sheets won't be released till two on the dot

Thats a very tough one. Id play bolasie. In defence, without doing any research, id drop Alder. But id check paddy power clean sheet odds to see if anyone stands out as more likely to concede.

The team was correctly on FFS Friday night last week, they had Benteke benched which I don't think would have been expected so it was obviously leaked and not a guess.

Moreno (swansea H)
Bellerin (Norwich A)
Smalling (Leicester A)
Kolarov (Southampton H)

Smalling

I was wondering if many were considering benching their United defenders this week, I was hoping to use this information to comfort me when I've benched one of Vardy or Mahrez and they score, of course that will only work for the first goal:o

Liverpool are the shortest price to keep a cs this week I wouldn't go benching Moreno. I'd play all four if at all possible which attacker would that mean leaving out?

Smalling would be the first to get the chop for me.
