The Big Numbers – Gameweek 7

A decidedly tepid Gameweek which saw the big guns misfire. Oliver Giroud at last made an impression, Santi Cazorla boosted his reputation, while two of the “template squad” were rejuvenated as Eden Hazard and Michu delivered. Our members can hoover up all the data from the weekend action and, as usual, we’ve picked up the numbers that have caught our eye so far…

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

        Just did a quick search and it's in all the papers it seems. The ref didn't see it (otherwise he'd likely have got a second yellow) so I think the FA will do something though.

    He's looking likely to drop tonight, and it would be nice to have the charge (which, I know, doesn't yet equate to a ban) before he drops so we can ship him out

    Michu/Fellaini/Cazorla/Ben Arfa/Nolan
    RVP/Tevez/Lambert

    Do I get rid of Tevez, or the unthinkable and ditch RVP? Any other chaff? I could do with upgrading one of my defenders I think...

    Hey guys. I don't normally like writing RMT's but I'd like people's opinions. Despite what I feel is a strong team, I'm really struggling in my mini-league and would like advice as to what to change.

    Cech, Begovic
    Baines, Gibbs, Gorkks, Bertrand, Reid
    Cazorla, Bale, Pienaar, Kacaniklic, Cleverley
    Podolski, Aguero, Carroll

    Any advice would be appreciated.
