FPL don't award points for any of those contributions.

Most chances created is fine for tracking assist potential, but the other three are almost utterly useless.

How are his shots stats compared to the likes of other players in his price bracket; Walcott, Coutinho, Firmino, Eriksen? That's what I would be comparing if I considered Pogba, not how many headers he wins or sideways passes he completes in the centre circle.

I've compared them, he looks good on paper, on grass and has great fixtures, Keeling it simple and bringing him in

Walcott looks good to go for another punt

Think I'm just going to own Ibra Aguero and Costa. Saves me (C) headache and stress of missing hauls. The MF will be Sanchez Wally or Lallana/Eriksen then upgrade to Coutinho when he's fit.

GW3 was when to dump him

GW16 was when to get him back in again :D

Wish I had :roll:

I dumped him in GW6 (for Aguero) & got him back this week (for Kane) :?

So tonight he is flagged after not playing (not in a league game of course... ;) ) because he said he felt a bit unwell. Seriously? What if a journo hears a player sneeze on Friday, will that mean a flag?

I've seen a stat yesterday or the day before that Ibra missed like 36 games in his career due to injuries, so I think we're good unless he broke his leg

Anyone thinking of selling for Lukaku now? A 2.0 discount isn't to be sniffed at...

Nope. :)

Good fixtures and no other decent United cover.

Lukaku off pens to.

Rather getting baines and maybe Mirallas.

Yeah if Lukaku was on pens we'd all be going for him. He has a great fixture run though. Which Lukaku and which Everton will turn up for that run though? Off the back of today's run probably the more interesting version so certainly worth considering if you have the available transfer.

Zlatan is ticking over nicely, on pens and a captaincy option though. So it depends on what the money difference can do for your team and if you have the transfers to use that money sooner rather than later.

For many Lukaku may be an easy answer out of Giroud if he is not fit or loses his place.

I think he is set and forget while Aguero is just forget. I think with the new formation, Lukaku is worth considering though it may be either for Costa or somehow as my third striker..but then there is Kane. Any chance of a 3-3-4 formation? :lol:
