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….
on a wc this is my plan
GW22 bale- mata
GW23 mata-cazorla
GW24 cazorla -bale

Turnbull/Begovic
Demel/Fonte/Cameron/Sagna/Collins
Mata/Fellani/Walcott/Michu/Cole

My main concern about this DDGW is keeping or dropping Suarez. He’s in form. I bought him for 10.1, and probably I’ll want him back in my WC – after DDGWs – so I’d loose some money on ditching him now. And what's more, he has NOR (H) in GW23, which is an opportunity for many points from him + probability that he’ll rise in price again!
These are DGWers I can get:
A. Suarez stays. No hits! Leaves me with:
Azpilicueta, Clyne, Puncheon, Mertesacker, Demel, JCOLE, Walcott, PODOLSKI
B. Suarez gotta go. 4 point hit. Leaves me with:
Azpilicueta, Clyne, Puncheon, MATA, LAMBERT, Mertesacker, Demel, Walcott, GIROUD
Which one should I do? Is sacrifising Suarez worth doing?Open Controls
Ivanovic or Luiz?
Or play it safe with Ashley Cole?
Also, Aguero > Lambert?
2FT
CheersOpen Controls@Beric, just saw your reply about Cashley being rotated with Bertrand...but they just did that for QPR...you think it'd happen again so soon?
Open ControlsIf you can stretch then I'd say Ivan. Right back or Centre back so can't see him dropped
Open Controls
If I could afford Ivanovic, I'd definitely go for him
YesOpen Controls
Ian Ladyman (Daily Mail journo) tweets that Aguero still only likely to be out for 2 weeks. Make of that what you will.
Either way, I'm not wcing until the last possible week. If Aguero is not close to a return I'll get Dzeko in.Open Controls
Wild Card Draft…
Turnbull Begovic
Baines Sagna Demel Rafael Luiz

what are people doing or recommending?Open Controls
Hi guys,
Please Rate My Team:
Foster
Luiz Bassong Nelsen
Mata (C) Walcott Bale Puncheon
Ba Suarez Torres
SUB:Begovic Michu Cuellar Nastasic
1 Ft , 1 mil in the bank
can't use my ft,because i have 4 chelsea players in my team.
ThanksOpen Controls
Anyone getting any Southampton attack?
Open ControlsPunch and maybe Lambert.
Open Controls
with all the dgw mess is anybody keeping baines in their team?
I was sure I was selling, however, his performance against newcastle, upcoming fixtures + the stats make it difficult.
The problem is that if I keep i have less money to invest elsewhere.Open ControlsOn WC atm.
Do you think it's worth getting Shaw? Can't really see any clean sheets in those two games but there aren't really many other option at that price.
Demel maybe?Open Controls
Him or Clyne. I reckon Clyne will be back. Demel will be good for the next DGW. Go for both.
Open Controls
I want Shaw long term so he's in. Don't really mind if they can't keep cleanies over the DGW.
Open ControlsI suppose. I would rather him long term as well seeing as I have O'Brien from WH already.
Open Controls
The new cut-price Baines by all accounts. Prob getting as he'll fit into cheapo rotation with Demel + Sun def afterwards.
Open Controls
If Ba does displace Torres, would you...
a) Go for him and Bale with a cheap midfielder
b) Him and Mata with a cheap midfielder
c) Mata and Bale and a cheap forward
...and by cheap I mean 5 mil or less.
You see, looking at GW24, Bale could tear Norwich apart again, but Ba has Reading, and him and Mata could rip them a new one.Open Controls
Is Ba mata and turnball enough for dgw?would need to take -4 to get turnball though instead of using Wc?
Open ControlsNa, you should have done it earlier and got Turnball, Azpi, Mata and Ba.
In all seriousness, it's good.Open Controls
Hazard going down tonight?
Open Controlsshould i bench fellaini, michu, walcott for puncheon this week?
Open Controls
Michu or Walcott for me. Probably Walcott.
Open Controls
Help please! A, B, or C?

Azpi is at 99, any chance he will NOT rise tonight?

This Chelsea DGW could be a red hearing. Its a rotation disaster just waiting to happen. Many of the regulars will be rotated because they fact Arsenal in GW23. I can't see the likes of Mata/Ba/Hazard/Ivan playing 3 games in one week. Especially if some of them start in the C1 cup game in a few days. That would be 5 games in two weeks.
Open ControlsJaaskelainen - Turnbull
Davies - Shaw - Demel - Cameron - Martin
Mata - Bale - Walcott - Fellaini - Michu
RVP - Suarez - Ruiz
Thoughts?Open Controls
I assume Sagna is more nailed on than Gibbs?
Open Controls
11 years, 3 months agowith Nelsen gone, who do you guys recommend purchasing for under 4.5?
if I don't have Bego, a Stoke defender seems a good idea, would it be better to buy Wilson or Wilkinson?
