The Big Numbers – Gameweek 30

Filed under: Members - Posted by: Mark

Eden Hazard’s Sunday showing is enough to see him topple Southampton’s Jay Rodriguez at the summit of our ICT Index rankings. With Villa’s Andreas Weimann ranked third, there’s little doubt that this was a Gameweek which saw the traditional heavy-hitters overshadowed.

Our members can, of course, examine the full numbers behind the Gameweek in our members area but we’ve made things easy, rounding off Sunday evening with our usual statistical buffet as we handpick some of the key data on show.

    Szcesny & Bunn owners – essential to ditch one this week, or is there a decent chance Szczesny will get back in?

      I wouldn’t think so. Either way, there will be rotation. Avoid, or go Fab/Scez

        Hmmm, Fab/Szcz is such a waste with the upcoming DGW though….

        Any point looking at Szcz -> Mucha (Everton). Decent GW31 fixture and a DGW. Would then offload with my wildcard at some stage during GW34-36.

        Szczesny & Sissoko -> Mucha & Santi (no hits) is an option, but only if Howard is at least 3-4 weeks away from a return…?

      Chezney and Nicholls so yeah need to ditch Chezzers. Who the hell to get in though!? The injuries to Howard, Krul, Ruddy mean you can’t pick up from those teams IMO, Cesar’s been poor so Green could get back in, Lloris, Hart too expensive, Cech could be good but possible blank.

      Only decent option looks like DDG and even then you could end up with no keeper.

            Quite like Maloney and Benteke this week… tricky one. I’d probably do it but I’d definitely be waiting 10 days.

          I’m proud of my team, no matter what division we’re in. I get pretty sick of fans who deem not winning a trophy something to be upset about. Be happy with your history and embrace your not so distant success, booing your team and moaning like little bitches is how I see Arsenal fans in the last 3 years.

“I love to attack and I love to go up front...It is a little more difficult than when you are playing centre-back. If you play the way that I want to play, I think my influence is better as a left-back. For the team, it is best that I play as a centre-back. I like to bring the ball out. You need to move the game quickly, and that is one of my qualities as well.”

Jan Vertonghen outlines what he feels is his best position for Andre Villas-Boas
