FPL Gameweek 2: Analysis of the key underlying statistics

-8

8

Depends I guess
This week: -12
In GW15: none

-8

depends on your score, if chasing more than -4, if you scored 100+, more than -12
anywhere inbetween more than -8

I've taken -12s before and profited. IMO depends entirely on the scenario. I'm looking at possibly one hit this week, two if I suddenly get some players INJ

I don’t think they could have priced him lower with his ppg last season.
Whether he’s a good pick is a different discussion

I think he's perfectly priced. Not enough time in the league to be near Salah/Mane/KDB/Sterling price points, but he proved his worth at the end of last season. He is a season keeper along with KDB and Salah for me.

He is not overpriced but Martial offers better value and lots of great mid options for 2M cheaper

Don't think he's overpriced but he did over perform last season due to the number of pens Utd received. Whether they keep that up is unknown, but prefer Martial for 1.5 less who has benefited hugely since Bruno's arrival

I think Martial should've been 9.5 and Bruno 10. When I owned them both during the restart, I never felt like there was a 1.5m difference between them. They were neck and neck. 0.5 difference due to Martial's reclassification would've been fine.

If Bruno keeps his form he's way underpriced, he will then be the highest scoring player in the history of the game (ca. 24 goals and 24 assists)

Highly unlikely to do so, but think the price is ok

Lewis I suppose. If you don't play him for BHA he probably should just be fodder.

Nothing
Looks good to me

Solid, maybe Shaw instead of Coleman to spread the CS risk?

Looks ok. Saiss instead of Coleman.

I'd go for Podence for your 5.5m mid

Not double Everton defence whatever you do.

Yay

Or plan B ?!

Soucek & Werner --> Greenwood & DCL

No chance id be selling werner if I had him

Wouldn’t sell Werner

Lamptey
Taylor
Lewis

Ayling, Lamptey, Justin.

I liked their attacking threat mainly.

Taylor
Ayling
Lamptey

Ayling, Lamptey, C.Taylor

Ayling
Taylor
Lewis

Ayling Lewis Lamptey

Risky but i like it.

Good move I think, you can always get TAA back in. I think he will drop if he doesn't get any returns against Chelsea.

good

One of those hits that suggests it is worth a gamble over the next few

I have convinced myself to go without pool defenders on wildcard, so I say yes.

Did almost the same move, but will Alli instead of Havertz. So I like it. Might be a bit of a rocky ride at times, but I’m optimistic it will work out to our advantage.

I’m actually surprised there aren’t any naysayers that have posted, but I guess it’s early days.

Thought about it but would have to exclude one of KDB and Bruno, so no.

That's not a rotation haha. You're just doubling up on City. But yes, I'm thinking about it.

With City's fixtures from GW10-22 it sounds very viable

Sterling is no good when Kun is around

More big chances created by Harrison

Coin toss, but I've gone Klich for same reason.

Cheers both.

C. Personally I want to hold FT and see how Greenwood situation plays out. I feel if playing regularly he nigh have more impact than JRod.

0.5 short for the Bruno 2nd transfer so need to take a hit. Hope Rashford looks good in GW2

definitely C

Barring no injuries and Havertz the only doubt in terms of poor performance, I'll probably go with C

-73, he's on his way

-73%...probably on Friday night, though many of his outs are on a Wildcard

great, just as I brought in Barnes today

Tbf though I think he's more competition on the right against Perez as opposed to Barnes

Barnes on the left, Under plays on the right where Perez plays.

Is he LW or RW?

it looks pretty good, but i hope its the wrong decision simply because I've stuck with ings and havertz

if that was your plan, stick to it and have no regrets

I would do that move

Should be Saiss

don't mention money leagues round here lol
yeah you should

Yep

Are you giving United assets a miss completely?

... I have so many issues with this

Villa GK on set-and-forget? Where do I start?
Defense is fine.
Foden is not guaranteed a start, neither, to my best knowledge is Podence; Sterling rotates too much for my liking, as well.
Forwards are OK

No United cover?

If you're WC have the decency to get at least one United player in.
Sterling rubbish while Aguero is around
Foden will get a 5 minute cameo every second game
Podence could be a rotation problem but good short term while he starts

Don't like it tbh, for the same reasons as those above my comment

You had a good squad.. what a waste

May as well give constructive criticism, though I really wish you'd waited at least another week before WC. We would have learned so much more then.

No TAA/Robbo? When I WC, I want my defenders to last the entire run and not fond of making transfers for them. Still believe they're incredible assets personally.

The 3 4.5s and Saiss for two spots intrigue me, really interesting and appealing strategy.

Foden is still an unknown factor with Pep, don't like him,

TWO 5.5 MIDs is insanity to me, that bracket is absolutely barren.

Forward line is very nice.

What happened to triple pool defs?

Interesting squad. Not a fan of benching a 5.5+ midfielder and 2 4.5 defenders every week, seems like 1.5m of funds you could use to improve your XI?

Bruno with Jimenez

(I think)

Martial and the 1.5

Bruno for me.
Would like to have both but opted for Jimmy instead of Martial.

reply fail to andy_social

Alli to JRod instead

Why get rid of Werner?

A

shhh

3 penalties in each of his last 2 seasons. Got 2 in a single game. People forgetting that it was a very fortunate side of variance. Also, penalties have only helped him get 1 goal more than Mane in the last 2 seasons combined.

Theres at least 6 changes id make for sure.
Mccarthy, Justin, Gabriel, Digne, William, Martial

others are more debatable

Fail - reply to Eric Banternaaa
