Continuing our round-up of the Christmas period, it’s time to treat our members to a series of articles which examines each of the positions and analyses the form of the key protagonists over the past four Gameweeks. We start in defence, by casting an eye over the top tens for our ICT Index, plus a more in-depth look at the main performers in terms of goal threat and creativity….
I don't think so.

On that comment I'm gonna take a guess at your rank...........210'000

Can't agree. Very little chance he gets two starts. I don't see Rafa kicking Torres to the curb (Although he should)
Open Controls
Torres needs rest Ba has a better engine and proved today he can score at any club and proven in Epl
Open ControlsI agree with you. I think Ba is a better player than Torres. If I was Chelsea's manager I would start Ba, (Although I would make him wear the sub's bib in training 😉 But you really think Torres is going to be benched for 3 straight games? No chance. Maybe they'll start together but I think it's more likely they'll spilt time this week.

my captain!
Open Controls
u forgot to say first
Open Controls
So do I bring in Mata?
Open ControlsCurrently got Zero Chelsea cover should a do Hernandez - BA a must but -4 and Cazorla to Mata for -8?.
Open Controlsarsenal have a dgw after so unless your planning on bringing caorla back in i would pass.
Open Controls
Why is Ba a must? Will prob only play 1/2 of the double gameweek then has Arsenal the week after?
Open Controls
GW25 wc, Tevez or Dzeko with Aguero out. Dzeko is cheaper, but Tevez maybe more nailed on with possible pens?
Open ControlsI like Tevez. He was neck and neck with Van Persie for total points when he was getting consistent minutes. His only wart is threat of rotation.
Open Controls
Aguero out for 3-6 months?
Bowstring, source?Open Controls
8 weeks tops mate

The massive difference this season is City are getting injuries they didn't really get last season. At least it makes it simpler for us. Dzeko or Tevez.
Open ControlsMario will prob get some gametime soon again, despite his continuing antics he shoild still be in peoples mind when thinking Tev/ Dzeko are nailed on
Open Controls
Bego Turnbull
Sagna Luiz O'Brien Clyne Wilson
Mata Walcott Cazorla Nolan Puncheon
RVP Hernandez Suarez
Good to go?Open Controls
I also have Clyne but is he set to start both matches
Open ControlsI'm WCing so will switch O'Brien and Clyne out. Wilson is for the future, as after the 2 DGWs he should be back
Open Controls
if you are comfortable with no michu, no fellaini/pienaar, no tevez/silva ?
Open ControlsI would either do changes for each DGW and then WC, or WC now and slowly bring back in these kind of players. What order would you do it? Have Mata Clyne O'Brien Puncheon Nolan atm
Open Controls
I'd be concerned missing Bale and Fellaini, but I guess the double gameweeks could make Cazorla and Nolan better options.
Open Controls
The game really needed this shake up. All teams were becoming the same.
Gonna see some big movers up & down in the next couple weeks…..Open Controls
Yes
Open Controls
Do I stick with Ba and Ivan or Mata and Azpilicueta?
Open Controlsi would ditch azpilicueta.
Open Controls
Repost, sorry. 22 DGW has caught me off guard.
Team:
Mignolet, Federici
Huth, Cuellar, Johnson, Hughes, Clyne
Fellaini, Michu, Bale, Puncheon, Noble
RvP, Suarez, Podolski.
Surely need to WC this week to get some chelsea players? 2 WC's left.Open ControlsI have no chelsea and only 1 WC, forced to use it now
Open Controls
Turnbull, Mata, Clyne, Puncheon(-2pts) enough? With the way Rafa rotates, maybe even Cole will be replaced by Bertrand in one game! Who knows?
Open Controls
Umm, is there a formatting issue? I get all the text and the first table, but the other two tables only list the headings. Can I find it elsewhere in the Members' tab?
Love this feature, by the way. Thanks.Open Controls
Odd I can see them
Open Controls
Ok can we get a general consensus of Chelsea players that will start or even finish both games this week?
Me first:
Ivanovich
Mata
Turnball
Cole
Umm generally unsure of the rest?
Ba surely won't play both? I wish he would cos that's an easy transfer to make ain't itOpen ControlsHow long Cech out?
Open Controls
Open Controls
170-180 Mins
Ivanovic
Luiz
Turnball
Mata and Cole are not guaranteed to start both gamesOpen Controls
going with a few differentials: Benteke, P.Cisse, Luiz (C) and possibly Sturridge once Liverpool's fixtures improve, any good?
Open Controls
Quick poll. Ramirez or Punch?
Open Controls
1st one
Open Controls
Turnbull - Jaask
Sagna - Cameron - Azpil - O'Brien - Fonte
Fellaini - Michu - Walcott - Mata - Bale
Suarez - Lambert - Berba
Good to go?
Is Azpil likely to start?Open Controls
Winter is coming. it seems highky likely with a freezing cold back end of the month. No way I'll waste my wildcard on a bunch of Soton player when it's likely there will be far more interesting opportunities later on.
Open Controls
Don't trust the met office dude
Open Controls
This game is a marathon not a sprint...
... but lets all WC for one GW and screw our teams up for the season 😉Open ControlsSounds good to me.....and hopefully collect some big points on the way
Spine of most teams should remain the same anyway....Open ControlsCorrect, and if you plan well you can set it up for the 2nd DGW after as well, not very often we have back to back GW's coming around, best to take advantage of it.
Open ControlsAnd still keep the majority of your main players in tact.......throughout with Chelsea and Arsenal involved....
Open Controls
+1
Open Controls
If you had no Chelsea cover would you take hits or wildcard and set team up for both DGWs?
Open Controlswildcard
Open Controls
I made a promise to change my team name "Dem Baba's" if Ba ended up joining Chelsea. Now I must proceed with that promise. Any creative suggestions that were scrapped in the creation of your teams? I'll probably pick the funniest pun involving a player's name. 🙂
Open Controlshttp://tinypic.com/r/15yt94o/6
and then get rid of: Hazard, Mata, Bale and Shaw
and bring in :Silva, Walcott, Cazorla and Sagna
12pt hit but lots of DGWersOpen Controls

Will Debuchy be captain on his debut? NUFC are seriously under the kosh at the moment.Open Controls
Van Persie is incredible.
But I can't be the only one who would love it if he was out injured for a prolonged period. Would totally change the FF landscape!Open Controlsmight go Dzeko over Tevez simply down to the 1.7 million difference in price, you can do a lot with that. Will see where things are at come the start of GW24
Open ControlsYou didnt have a City striker, their best striker is injured and suddenly they become a decent proposition? I dont quite understand how losing their best attacker will help them score goals.
