The Big Numbers – Gameweek 17

While Sunday brought a rather tepid conclusion to the weekend’s action, the lack of incident allowed us more time to digest the numbers behind the Gameweek so far. In this latest foray into the depths of our members data, we offer further insight on the performances of Adel Taarabt, Raheem Sterling and David Silva not only for this weekend, but the last four Gameweeks and season so far. As for Glen Johnson, well, we’ll let the numbers do the talking…

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

      I know afro is gonna get a ban but you are transfering 2 nailed on players for 2 rotation risks.
      Could very possibly work out well this gameweek so good luck if you take the plunge.

      I think it's shameful, the things that people are saying about that poor Fellaini boy. He'll be back in my team when he's 6.5

        In the week where foreign players are to be educated on English culture, Fellaini was just trying to do the same to Shawcross - it's how they say " Happy Christmas " in Antwerp

    Since Morrison's role has changed, his attacking stats have gone down the toilet! Whatever you want to label his position as DM,CM or AMC his potential is still diminished. No one has a static position on the pitch they have to keep to, but their role impacts their opportunities. Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded.
