Dear Mentors,

I have been following threads here for about 3 years now. Sincerely, Hajji Muffutau, Spyder, Dominion, Batlan guys, HSL, Segcymoore .... have inspired something positive. By God's grace, picture and detail story shall come soon.

For now, Kindly help with the Area (Per Square Meter) of the roof below. Oga Spyder said we should close mark so I climbed and measured with Baba Carpenter but he can't calculate area!

Help me, I need it to negotiate Stone coated tiles.

Roof is attached below.

Build. The joy in building, supervision, amendments, .... I am enjoying it.

Funny how the OP did not quote any scripture to back his/her position. This may be another plausible lie if not supported with evidence. Muslims would give evidence always on position such as this.

She's 18 (eighteen), make her your second wife. Marry her legally/properly before you ruin your home, yourself and hereafter further.

Dear Mukina,

Angelamina!

tolutweety:
I am here..check the last team on the first page.

I took a risk in search of differentials and the result i got put me on the 2nd page of the league for 2weeks....still recovering from the fall !
I 'ld rather seek a differential with the normal players n not my captain #LessonLearnt#

Eeya, Pele.

Don't make transfer until the international break is over. Too many injuries

I had my eyes on Intelligesia when I was second on the log so I took risk and I am 5th now! It is safe to seek differentials if your overall points can cushion the shock, otherwise use template team! I am still searching for Mourinho FC!

Tough weekend! Whew.

Thank God, I am hanging on. Rooney messed my Captain (Falcao) up. Captain returned 10! SMH. Still holding to second and 15 in Nigeria for now. Hopefully, Shawcross will score 2 own goals and a red card .

It's tough up here.

lalaboi: I dont get how a chelsea clean sheet is sure. . . 1 clean sheet is 6 games. . .

Feelings

Nihilist: Mehn.......

Upon all that, I'm in 88th position...

I'll read all that long text....then go ahead and captain Guzan

What!

seyi42k: Well, thanks for the honour. I will suggest that you allow nominated managers write their thoughts on each gameweek rather choose the areas of discussion as it might not be their main strength. Also, I believe it should be called a preview and not a review.

Like I said above, the two areas of discussion are not really my main focus,i.e. if you go through my previous gameweeks, you will see that I do not get as much points from Captains as I ought be getting (bar the Costa gameweek) and my cleansheet record usually not significant.

However, why am I currently topping:
1. Have a wide range of forums to discuss FPL, i.e. through facebook, twitter, online forums etc. I am mostly a twitter person and follow a lot of good fpl accounts where I aggregate a lot of information for each gameweek.

2. Be prepared to make you own decisions. Even when big fpl twitter accounts suggested Hazard, Mata & Erikssen, I decided against them due to several reasons. For example like I stated before regardless of Hazards dazzling skills Fabregas will always rule the roost in Chelsea's midfield as he always dominates and/or creates problems for other midfielders in his team. I read an article where it was explained that Barca suffered when it tried to shoehorn Fabregas into its balanced midfield which led to problems for Iniesta and that was why he was sold and may also explain Wenger's reluctance to buy him.

Just like last week showed, Mata is usually the first scapegoat in ManU's midfield. Even when Rooney is sometimes out of form, he is often preferred to Mata. I would have expected LVG to bring in Mata for Di Maria yet he opted for Januzaj and only bring in Mata when it was too late.

As for Eriksen, He is blowing hot and cold. Maybe its the change of manager's, the second season syndrome or inbalance in the team, he is not effective so far this season.

These are my opinion based on my own analysis, they could change or be enriched further as football is not mathematics.

3. Try and read forums of rival teams where fans of the teams rate their own players, e.g. redcafe (ManU), redandwhitekop (Liverpool), spurscommunity (Tottenham) etc to get a feel of the fans especially how they see their players. If they do not like the player, you can be certain that it will bleed through to the fans in the stadium and often times. affect the player. If you are choose an unloved player, be sure he will not play well (e.g. Gervinho in Arsenal).

4. I use either of two formations, 3-4-3 or 3-5-2. This seems to be the optimal this season so far. This is due to the emergence of a lot of goal scoring midfielders and good cheap strikers.

5. Don't be overly concerned about a clean sheet, just choose defenders and keepers who would make saves, concede a max of 2 to 3 goals and can score. a 4.5m to 5.5m defender is enough so that you can load the middle to top positions with good fpl players. One more thing, try as much as possible not to captain a defender, it is too risky.

6. Have a balance team. My opinion of a balance team is two good keepers with home & away rotation (e.g Mannone & Krul/Forster) not more than 9.5m, five defenders Preferably fullbacks) with one or two medium priced from a defensive team or a team that allows it defenders to bomb forward, Heavy Midfield with enough gurus there and Heavy top with one small priced striker. Thank God for Naismith & Ulloa.

7. Offload non performing players or out of form players even though they seem important and play week in week out, for example, Yaya Toure. I removed Ramsey because I believe Wenger is going to play till he burns out and it is already showing.

These tips, among so many, are well known by the fpl gurus here but for the newbies amongst us (of which I am one has this is my 3rd season) these tips will improve our knowledge & rankings. I should also mention luck. If you check the no. 1 fpl managers every matchday, you will discover that no amount of analysis could have given you that perfect team where everybody's star aligned and they are usually middle table managers. For example on saturday, the no 1 mgr captained Ozil, had Welbeck, Ulloa, Costa, Dimaria, and a high scoring defence. It is almost hard to predict that team, I mean I would have thought anybody captaining Ozil was taking a big risk especially given his lack of form and the presence of Rooney, Costa & Ballotelli.

Lastly, as for my captain choice this week, I am considering Dimaria based on form, Pelle based on QPR's defence and Costa based on form & Stamford bridge.

Other choices includes Welbeck but care should be taken as Sanchez coming back into Arsenal's team may disrupt the Ozil-Welbeck flow we saw last week. Sanchez is also an option for people who have him. Fabregas the assist machine etc. Other mangers should chip in and advise us.

My apologies for rambling on. Mazi, you are doing a great job as I found your posts witty and refreshing but let us tone down the rape innuedos, we might have sensitive players who may not find it funny or have suffered in the past.

As for Intelligesia, we want to win the double this year. See you at the top. Please find below my team for the week, the captain band is still under discussion though. Thank you.

This Guy is Intelligent! He's got the formula, connection and skill. I will keep learning from him.

GAMEWEEK 6 Preview.

Liverpool/ Everton: This fixture is very difficult to call. Both teams are unpredictable at the moment. It would be safe not to invest in any defender here. It's better to reduce the exposure to one player. I signed STERLING! The overall ownership of 48% is very high to overlook him. If he performs very well and you don't have him in your team you may drop points to 48% managers! If you are doing well on the log already, you could gamble on another player and hope he gets 2points!

Chelsea Vs Aston. Villa

Whatever you you do, don't sign or use any Villian Defender or Keeper. I fear some Villas Boas in the house won't listen. After all, dog wey go loss no go hear hunter's wistle. There's no reason not to have Costa, I don' t have him though (To top the crowd, you need a little deviation- this is mine!)

DEFENCE

Chelsea Defender will earn you big this week! I can't afford any for now though. I recommend Azipilicueta @ $6.00

HIDDEN SUYA PERRY

Ulloa! He is scoring, the earlier the better.
Welbeck! He's a gift @ $7.2 and Arsenal strikers will score goals. Hold on to him for weeks.

POTENTIAL CLEANSHEET
1. Southampton won't concede against QPR
2. Chelsea cleansheet is sure.
3. Tothenham! against Arsenal. gut gut gut....
Painfully, I can't pick my dear Manchester United for cleansheet

CAPTAIN

I have to state here, humbly, that my Captain choices in 2014/2015 has been good, all through . This I have achieved using my feelings, opinion polls and knowledge of the team I support.

As at 11:15 am today, 26/9/2014, votes results are:
Costa has 55.46% ( and I don't have him)
Angel Di Maria has 11.38%
Rooney 2.9%
Pelle 7.3%

Note very well: 60.9% managers have Diego Costa! The implication of that size of ownership I will explain with what happened to me in Gameweek 4. I captained Di Maria and he returned massive 28 Points! But I dropped massively on all, even on Nairaland log to 25th, because Costa Scored Hatrick and Many have him. However, I am the Manager of the Week (MoW) because I don't have him in gameweek 5!

My Pick of the week, for now o (na only you waka come if you fail to know that it might change at the dead), is El Tigre- RADAMEL FALCAO! 2.43% votes to be captain and I know He's a Beast!


Mhuyil, Gbongan FC Mngr, MoW. I am Risk Manager too!

I (Gbongan FC manager) am Happy to feature on the Tabloid! My target is to finish first 10 in Nigeria and around Top 2000 in the world. For me, it's a game and I see no reason why teams, captain choices cannot be discussed on this platform every game week. Just as it is on Fantasy Scout.

There's still long way to go. The guy on top is very intelligent and my respect for anyone ahead is what earned me 2nd spot thus far.

My advice for those drilling down: Believe in your feelings. Though your love for your EPL team may be the major cause of poor runs but opportunity abounds in the team you support. Over the years, I can predict how Rooney will perform, the players that will play, when Man U may likely score many goals than I can for other teams. Also, remember to manage your exposures to a team. Have a diversified risk.

Thank you Mukina2 for giving the opportunity to join Nairaland League. I look forward to be at the ultimate top by the end of the season.

Thank you.

O! My Fantasy friend, Mourinho FC, how is it down there?

tolutweety: It's ur tym.have fun.

Mourinho FC, I can't find you again!

All Glory to God. Alhamdulillah for counting me among those moving to the top. Many have fallen (Mourinho FC, Lalaboi-called me newbies! etc) yet, up and up...

Gbongan FC is second (2nd) on nairaland log and 16th! in Nigeria.

oluamid: Yeis!

Ayaf use my Wildcard. Y'all should watch out for Oluamyd FC. My days of sitting at the bottom of the league is over. Gbongan FC, we are starting with you!

God forbid! I am unrealistic target for you.

tolutweety: What a week!

No matter how bad,some teams will still rise on the table.

Gw1: 30th
GW2: 27th
GW3: 15th
GW4: ??

We keep rising...
The journey's still far...


SwagFC... U r next to taste defeat in conference league as the unbeaten run continues


Lets enjoy the international break.

What a week!!

I my guy,

You are doing well I must confess. Keep it up.

Those (lalaboi) that called us "newbies" are feeling the heat already. Gbongan FC is getting to the top (6th on the table already).

Watch out!

lalaboi: Is it just me or these newbies are a tad bit too hyper? lol

Gbongan FC breathing 4 points behind you. The manager may be new but he surely read the rules of the game. You are hereby challenged.

tolutweety:

I will patiently wait till tomorrow to reply you...I'm very sure by then, Game Week 2 will be over.

@GbonganFC; Brillant coach you've got and brillant ideas he has BUT
the Tactician is just a special one ... and the END will justify the MEANS !!

I am surprised you are expecting 30points this night! You have 2 players defending against your fearsome Sterling. Do you know that the success of one of your player may preclude that of your defenders? i.e Sterling scores, cleansheet points gone

In Fantasy League you needs luck and risk management as well.

tolutweety: aii...
also playing for the first time too...but i dint perform too bad in GW1 (had 60 pts ).
Used my wild card already and darn the consequences. I would be smart enough to pivot the team to top 4 of the league,come MAY 2015 !

MOURINHO FC ..... Let that name ring a bell !! You will need to remember that i told you about this great team later in the season !!

Mourinho FC dropped out already! You may not know why because you just gained promotion to pro league! The wildcard you have used would have helped your season but...

ritchboy: Am I the only top manager that didn't use a transfer/wildcard this week? #foresight

You are not. There no plan to you use it in any foreseeable future yet.
