Fantasy Football - Midfielders

Paully D

Now that we're a few weeks in, who would you all say are the 4 best midfield players to have now then lads?

I have Kagawa, Nolan, Michu, Bale and Hazard at the moment

The best four to have at the moment would be Silva, Bale, Fellaini and Mata/ Hazard in my opinion.

Why Silva? He's done very little fantasy wise this season

Yeah that is true but I think it is a good time to get him. He was brilliant last season and is due a good run of form in the league soon I think.
Might get a decent price on him now.

Glad Iv stuck with bale, really starting to pay off the last few weeks. Il give hazard and michu another chance next weekend before I decide to get rid or not.

I shipped Bale in last Gameweek, It's definitely paid off!


Should I get rid of Michu & Hazard or should I give them 1 more Gameweek?

I'd give both 1 more gameweek ! Both are at home and have the potential to bounce back with good returns.

They aren't exactly bad either! Just haven't scored many points from a FPL manager's perspective.

I haven't seen a city game in a few weeks. Does anybody know how deep Toure has been playing since javi garcia's been playing?

The only thing is that he is very very expensive, Should he be starting every week?

I'd wait. I had him gw1 and Hazard was on form and now i have Hazard Mata on form :eek:

I'm keeping the faith one more week with Hazard.

The way he's playing at the moment, YES. He was far better than Hazard v Arsenal, and much farther forward, he ran the show. Plus another two goals last night. This game is about getting the right players at the right time. He looks on fire at the moment

Who would people choose between bale and Carzola?
I'm leaning towards Bale at the moment, as he is in a vein of form, but Carzola has been playing great stuff for Arsenal too.

Tough choice. I'd pick Bale. He's in form at the moment.

Cazorla for the long term. Gameweek 15 onwards -- Easier fixtures. He's got MUFC away and Tottenham at home before gameweek 15 which are extremely tricky fixtures. Other than that, he has easy fixtures around those two tricky fixtures.
He's a menace in and around the box. I can see him assist/score a few before GW 15 though.

I have both in my team at the moment.

Gameweek 7 and onwards:
Mata or Hazard?

Will Mata's form continue or will Hazard comeback?

it's impossible to tell.

Hazard looks lazy at the moment, but you just don't know what will happen.

if you watched Mata last season, he was inconsistent in his points scoring, but that could change. it really is just a judgment call.

what i will say is, if you have Hazard already, it'd be a bit risky to swap Hazard straight for Mata.

Mata got a decent 162 last season but yeah, he was inconsistent in patches.
I already got Hazard. I guess I'm going to torture myself with the Mata vs Hazard dilemma all night. I got a gut feeling that Mata's going to score a goal and/or assist vs Norwich.

Crazy that Mata can't even get into the Spanish squad at the minute, let alone the first team. Embarrassment of riches.

At the mo I've Hazard and have had from the start. With his price increase of 9.5 to 10.3 and Mata's drop from 9.5 to 8.8 I'll be well up.
Mata is obviously the player on form right now?

Well, hey. With players like Xavi, Xabi, Iniesta, Thiago, Fabregas and almost half of the Barcelona and Real Madrid squad.. Mata was never an option! [Not to mention a certain Jesus Navas and David Silva]

crap, danny guthrie is going to drop to 4.3 tonight. would of rathered waited and made sure sterling didn't get injured tomorrow. also don't like making transfers so early on an international break week.

Michu scored! Hazard Scored! To keep them or not to keep them, yet? That is the question.

Im going to keep both for another week! Swansea at home to wigan, could be another goal in that for Michu and you wouldn't know what to do with Hazard but ill keep him on a week by week basis!

I don't mind holding onto Michu.. just hope he doesnt get all these yellow cards! Thinking of offloading Hazard cause he's got games against Tottenham, United and Swansea! He isn't exactly in form either. Scored the goal today somehow.

Ya im thinking the same, debating if i will replace him with Bale. Bales price is definetly going up tonight, pity as i was hoping to wait until tomorrow to see how he plays.

Wouldn't say that. His upcoming fixtures may be difficult and his price is obviously quite high but I wouldn't say he's not in form at all.

He was alright on the pitch today, if you noticed. Dropped deep at times to clear the way for Mata and Oscar.. he isn't in the best of forms but he isn't in the worst of forms either. Mata played deep too but he was wayy more creative. Lobs, Through balls... hell, he ran the show. Totally stole the limelight from Hazard.

S.M.B.

I didn't even see todays game but the stats seem to indicate that he put in a performance on a par if not ahead of Mata.

Need a bit of help here.. Thinking of taking an 8 point hit to bring in Torres for the next gameweek onwards.. I got a really good feeling he'll perform in all the big matches.. The thing is, I need a 6.4 midfielder to go with him.
I've got 2 options: Duff and Morrison. Who do you reckon is better?
[I haven't made the transfers as yet.. I'll wait for the International week to get over.. but I'm pre-planning]
