Chief's #FPL Team - Gameweek 13

Latest Rank: 28,646

  Forster/Pelle* OUT / Green/Rooney** IN

New Bank Balance: £0.3M 

*It doesn't make sense having too much So'ton coverage as their games get harder.

**Both players have a good run of upcoming games.

 

CAPTAIN 

This week's captain pick was selected by Asliga's stats.  So why did I captain Rooney?

Rooney is the captain of England and Manchester United

He has scored 5 goals in his last 3 matches.

Has FPL pedigree.

Despite not playing in 3 PL games this season, he is still Utd's top FPL pts scorer (FWD):

 

Despite not playing in 3 PL games this season, he is still United's top goal scorer at home:

Best "ALI" rated MUFC player (Asliga Index) in Gameweek 12, which shows his potency:

PANTILIMON & FLANAGAN IN

Hi all, like the new format?  It looks a bit upside down doesn't it?  My previous post explains the reasoning behind it.  Before I explain my team's transfers, please be aware of the upcoming FPL schedule.  Gameweeks 13-20 span a mere 33 days!  In my opinion, this is when the business end of the FPL season starts.  Be extra careful with your transfers and avoid having a quasi-empty bench as players will be rested, rotated, and some will be suspended after picking up yellow card no. 5.  As for this GW, having said all that, you will have noticed that I have made some rather unusual transfers. Some may call them clever differentials.  Others may call them plain stupid.  I decided to purchase Pantilimon as he is City's current first choice goal keeper and has a good run of fixtures.  His low ownership (0.8%) and cheap price was an incentive too.  As for Flanagan, he also has low ownership (0.1%).  I decided to buy him after reading that Enrique will be out for a while.  Flanagan isn't a guaranteed replacement, but with Liverpool's good run of fixtures and his differential status, I couldn't say no.  Both are short-term transfers that will either be fruitful or fail.  All my strikers scored last week, alas I captained Ozil (I will probably sell him for Hazard soon).  This week, I am going purely on form and captaining my #hotpick Aguero.

Fantasy Football Hints - Gameweek 13

 #REJECT (R):

Michel Vorm (SWA)

Despite keeping 7 clean sheets he has been inconsistent of late.  

Vorm has failed to keep a Premier League clean sheet since October.

Facing a City team that has won 6/6 at home (scoring 26 goals in the process).

#PUNT (P):

Yoan Gouffran (NEW)

Scored twice and assisted once in last 3 league games.

WBA have conceded more than a goal a game on their travels.

In form & scored first 3 league goals far quicker than he did last season.

#HOTPICK (H):

Sergio Aguero (MNC)

City are looking to close the gap near the top.
It took him only 11 appearances to score 10 goals.

Didn't play a full match midweek so likely to be fresh.
