Members Area Upgraded

Earlier today we upgraded the Members Area to the new site template, giving everything a facelift as we rolled out the ICT Scout Index – our Fantasy Football Player Index.

We will make a detailed post on the ICT index later this evening, although if you want some early insight into how this works you can refer to this earlier post which explains the basics.

Members can currently view Top 10’s for Influence, Creativity and Threat, plus the Index score, from last season via their new Members dashboard in the Members Area. Full ICT Index scores can then be gathered via the Player Stats > Fantasy Index tables. You can view these tables by position or for all players.

Much more on this to come later.

We are working to roll out the new site template to the main site. We’re currently still optimising the new design and will look to carry out further tests in the next week before announcing a release date.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      Too true triggerlips. Kinda reminds me of the way people add too much coke to their JD - just can't taste it anymore. Still, the dilution is lining some folks pockets. This I can't oppose.

      I'd go Lescott and hughes Chris if I were you. That said I went with kompany and hughes myself (along with Orr, baines, enrique). Hughes had great returns last year. played all matches if i remember correctly, if not it was 37 matches, and I think he had something like 12-14 clean sheets.

    Think I've settled on my side, pretty disappointed with myself though as I started out with manic ideas like three massive strikers etc and have ended up with a pretty generic team. Bah.

        Well I thought three big hitters would be the way to go to suss out the new bap system, if it didn't work then a quick wildcard could be used.
        Now I'm worried that the 4.0 defenders are pretty heavily owned (Simpson, De Laet etc) so if they turn a couple of bad performances early doors then their price could drop sharply meaning I'd be hamstrung for cash.

      Only because of the clean sheet, yes...tends to be a priority with defenders. Goals are unreliable and hard to forecast, whereas City are going to keep a certain amount of clean sheets and at 6.0 playing every game if he's fit, he's good value.
