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 weekendโ€™s games and our Big Numbers article has picked through the goodies to find the stats that caught our eyeโ€ฆ

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

    There's no way I should be doing Caz->Mata (along with Gerrard->Sterling and Podolski->RVP) just to beat the price rise when I have S. Taylor, Demel, Ba, Berba in my team?

        I thought so too....

        Out of the 4 possible injury/rotation suspects, whom do you think is likely to be the most serious?

          You know seeing you on 15th, I was remembering the times during Euro when JK said he wasn't sure pairing up with you (low rank cause you joined you late last year etc etc)? He sure doesn't know how to scout ๐Ÿ™‚

    Repost, missed new article.

    Thinking of WC this week (see team in link). Between not and the January WC is when the boys are sorted from the men. After that teams imo tend to become more template.

    I’m thinking of this team..(Injuries permitting)

    De Gea, Begovic

    Wilkinson, Cuellar, Rafeal, Baines, Wisdom

    Mata, Bale, Cazorla, Morrison, Maloney

    Ba, Suarez, Berbatov

    0.3 in the bank.

    I know De Gea and Rafeal may look an odd pair, but De Gea looks 1# choice at United now and they should start to pick up clean sheets from GW11 onward imo, maybe 3 in the next 6 fixtures. I’ll switch Raf back out when the fixtures tighten up again.

    Wisdom will be switched with Hughes at some point no doubt when fixtures lighten up.

    No RVP is worrying, but confident the other players will make up the points and ill continue the captain russian roulette game.

    Anyone got any input? Much appreciated.

        How bland life would be. In fairness though, Bale, Ba and Mata are offering somewhat reliable captain choices this year when the fixture falls right.

        No RVP's though.

    Which transfer is most important for this GW:

    A: Jenkinson > 5.3 defender (a 0.1 drop won’t make any difference to my SP)
    B: Guthrie > Sterling (non-player to sub worth having)

          Correct. Amazingly bad apart from 1 game. The negative for shots off target is weighed far too highly imo.

          Better a bad threat than no threat at all!

    Damn, Valencia is 8.6m, a little overpriced i think. Could be a decent differential over the coming fixtures though.
