Here’s our fantasy premier league transfers GW6 article for GW6 where we outline the FFGeek team. As usual we look at the transfers and related dilemmas plus the team lineup and selection issues. We also talk through the gameweek prospects by looking at the teams bookmakers odds and give our initial view on captain choice.
FANTASY PREMIER LEAGUE TRANSFERS GW6 – THE FFGEEK TEAM
So firstly here’s the team.
£6.4m Burnley forward Gray out – £13.0m Man City forward Aguero in
£10.0m Chelsea mid Hazard out – £5.0m Watford mid Capoue in
We’ll talk through the transfers below the pic:
THE TRANSFERS
I can’t tell you how many versions of the above 2 transfers I’ve gone through. What it came down to in the end is that I just didn’t want to get rid of Ibrahimovic until after the next 2 home games. I’ve pretty much decided I will use my wildcard after the next 2 game weeks over the next international break. I could leave it one more gameweek maybe.
I have to say I’m a sceptic on the Capoue front but given that timetable they have a few good games and he seems to have as good as chance as any of his team mates. His value gives me flexibility going forward. My next transfer is hopefully Redmond out Walcott in when Redmond plays Leicester away in GW7 and Arsenal play Burnley away. What it does mean is that Sanchez is a pipe dream until the Wildcard. Thats one reason why I may defer it 1 more week. I don’t want to use it over the break and find he doesn’t start having come back from Chile late.
The Gray suspension sealed it although by then I had pretty much already made up my mind.
BOOKIES RATINGS
Ok so here’s the first test. Lets look at the top 10 anytime goal scorers that I think will start and how many I’ve got:
£1.67 – Aguero
£2.10 – Coutinho, Firmino, Mane
£2.25 – Ibrahimovic, De Bruyne
£2.30 – Lukaku,
£2.45 – Costa
£2.50 – Benteke
So 4 out of the 10 which is ok.
So there are 3 teams with odds to win under £2.00
£1.25 – Liverpool v Hull
£1.36 – Swansea v Man City
£1.75 – Man Utd v Leicester
So players in all 3 which is encouraging
The Team bookies odds
So an ok average but not great. £2.60 is preferable. Distorted by Capoue somewhat
TEAM SELECTION
Couldn’t be easier given Middlesboro and Swanseas fixtures as defence is the only selection area
CAPTAIN CHOICE
I’ll do an article tomorrow but nothing is going to remove Aguero as captain
