The Big Numbers – Gameweek 9

There were some unfamiliar names on top of the ICT Index this week, snuggled alongside the return to form of Carlos Tevez and Leighton Baines, while Juan Mata and Robin Van Persie again provided shifts to acquire another wave of Fantasy attention. The Members Area is packed with the latest data from the weekend’s games and our Big Numbers article has picked through the goodies to find the stats that caught our eye…

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

      Cisse's form is woeful, scored of his arse he did. If it's anyone else from that team, I'd get Shola over Cisse.

        This is the real bollocks. Ba or not Shola won't get enough minutes to make it worthwhile, when Ba was moved to the right last season Cisse hot an incredible run of form. It is risky bringing Cisse in but he could easily go on a goalscoring run.

          Yeah. It seems sooner or later Baines will have to be shipped as well.

          Only way Bale+Mata+Santi+Rvp+Ba(when fit) can be accommodated, while keeping Michu.

          Baines/Kaca to Mata/4.9m for -4 will give me:

          Michu/Mata/Bale/Santi/Nolan

          When assoit-akotte (terrible spelling) is back, vertonghen should slot back into the centre

            hmmmm... the only issue then is when rather than if he gets dropped... i can't find any news on when assou ekotto is returning though....

      I wouldn't get Ba if I was on WC however you know that and will change accoridngly when news comes... Similarly with Berba, although i reckon his ribs were only bruised...

      No RVP? surely WC is the time to fix that

      I would consider downgrading Caz to someone and upgrade one of Bera or Ba to RVP

        I'd like to get RVP - but i can't see how i can make an even remotely balanced team if i tie up so much cash in getting him...

      BTW, JD...

      What you think....Baines/Kaca to Nelsen/Mata + 0.9m

      If Ba out....Ba to Cisse with the remaining 0.9m.

      Will leave me with 0.0m

        I don't like the sound of getting rid of Baines, however you know that as I had him even when he didn't score last year.. I look at him as being a MF who creates shite loads of chances and has the added advantage of having a CS opportunity..

        I'd ship Nolan before Baines if I were you...

        I am probably going to go Ba to Jelly if Ba is out.

        I don't know I'm having enough doubts myself... about what to do.. I must shift Ivan to free up funds...

            I know so do I which is why I shifted out bucktooth for Ba.

            I'm just going to wait and see.

            For me the only good attacking options are Ba and maybe HBA (unrelaible though) If Ba isn't there I may just go with the newc defender for that period.

            I am now thinking Ba - Jelly, downgrade ivan and Vorm and when Ba comes back hopefully before GW11 upgrade Lambert to him

            So many different thoughts ATM

    Lallana or Kightly to rotate with Sterling?
    Sterling with Kightly: (NEW, QPR, WIG, NEW, SOT, avl, AVL, FUL, LIV, SOT, SUN)

    Sterling with Lallana: (NEW, SWA, WIG, NEW, NOR, SOT, RDG, AVL, FUL, ful, qpr)

    Both has nice fixtures till January wildcard. Which one is better: Kightly +0,5m or Lallana?
