With another seven days left until the deadline for Gameweek 4, there’s plenty time to ponder the numbers in our Members section. While some Fantasy managers still contemplate pressing the wildcard button, we take a look at some of the most notable attacking statistics on offer so far – in the first in a series of three articles, we begin with the defenders.
-
RMWCTNB
Mignolet, Bunn.
David Luiz, Vidic, Shaw, B.Turner, Chester.
Walcott, Oscar/Yaya, 2 x Redmond/Brady/Barkley, Ward-Prowse.
Van Persie, Soldado, Benteke.
About £0.5m in the bank depending on the dashes.Open Controls-
Giroud will outscore RVP and is much cheaper. Giroud for RVP and upgrade mids!
Open Controls -
No shawshank redemption? And it's ok, I think Rvp destroys the balance.
Open Controls -
I prefer Danny Boy over Soldado myself and another premium mid over a premium defender.
Open Controls -
For me the 2 big hitting def's are the problem as you would be looking at playing both at the same time and relying on no rotation/inj. Also to factor in with def's picking up more bonus thus maybe a 4 back line all adds to the conumdrum.
I'd look at some Wham coverage - Sam's teams are never going to be mullered and you could save a few £'s to upgrade Mid. Ward Prowse (good work in progress but 1st season) & Brady (dead ball situations) - 1 or the other IMO.Open Controls

How did John Terry wind up in the credits for the Shawshank Redemption???
Open Controls -
What's next?
Open Controls-
Hahaha

Never really got why Shawshank Redemption is so popular. It's one of those ones where everyone seems to say it is, so other people say so too perhaps? I mean it's not bad and all that, but pretty average really.
Open Controls-
I didn't see it until way after the hype train so maybe that helped it not seem so great. Good but not all-time amazing.
Open Controls -
I agree.
It is better than average but I am surprised it is anyone's favourite film. It benefits from having a wide appeal and a feel good ending.Open Controls

Great fun, ENR. Thanks for organising.
Here's a really useful film website I use to journal all the movies I watch: http://letterboxd.com/
Useful app too which comes in handy when you are in the rental shop wondering if you've already seen that movie. 🙂Open Controls

Too many Chelsea midfielders to pick from. Is Hazard the safer option?
Lampard/Oscar/Will.i.an all tempting.
Lamela or Eriksen to make the biggest impact at Spurs?Open Controls-
L and L
Open Controls -
I'm really stuck on Chelsea.
Every attacker seem risky compared to safer picks from other clubs.
But given the chances are they will be first or second, I want someone.
Think I'll wait till after Everton Away, Fulham derby game and Spurs away then decide.Open Controls-
Decent strategy.

So is Rose nailed on for the Sours defence? A good buy? What do ye think?
Open Controls-
BAE has been sent out on loan. So that's a yes from me.
Open Controls -
Mid in fpl 🙁
Open Controls-
That is a pain. Still a defender in most games thankfully.

Any chance Rooney to be fit in time for Palace game?
Really need him in "the hole" so that Welbeck will play in LW and Nani still warms the bench
Rival bought Nani 😐Open Controls -
RMWCT
.......Mignolet
Coleman walker zabaleta terry
Walcott Lampard silva
Benteke giroud sturridge
Bench: kelvin Davies ward-Prowse Chester BradyOpen Controls -
How does Andy put the poster back on the wall once he is inside the tunnel in The Shawshank Redemption? Always wondered
Open Controls-
Sticks it at the top, lets the bottom hang free I assume
Open Controls-
In the book, red was named after so because he had red hair. In the film he chewed big red gum. Could be gum. But also, Red does say he could get him 'anything' inside. Could be blu-tac
Open Controls -
But it seems attached all the way around when the warden rips it off...maybe though.
Open Controls

-
Haha no idea, great question. I think it's impossible but had to be done for the scene to work.
Open Controls -
Sticks both top corners then in the middle at the bottom, Then he could turn up either corner and pin it from the other side. 🙂

So, how long has Seamus Coleman looked like Gareth Bale?

Taking part in my first Draft League on Monday (10 teams, snake-style drafting, no budget)
Any advice from others who have gone through the draft process before? Common mistakes to avoid or strategies that are quite different from FPL thinking?Open Controls -
HBA or Nani?
Open Controls-
HBA
Open Controls
-
Once Champions League starts, will Lampard still be nailed on?
Open Controls-
None of us know to be honest 🙁
I have him and I'm a little worried. Still think he'll score wellOpen Controls

Do anyone consider Paulinho of Spurs?
How did he play? Box-to-box MF, I guess.
He's 7.0m and his stats seems attacking too.Open Controls-
He won't be as attacking with Eriksen and Lamela in the mix

Playing with my friends a draft league. (the player can not be owned by 2 teams)
My midfield now is:
Ozil. Michu. Lamela. Lampard. HBA. Hernandez. Mirallas
Considering Willian and Nani. Should I sign them before Someone else sign them if yes then who should I sell, Hernandez or HBA or Mirallas?Open Controls -
Pratik: Saving Private Ryan, The Last of the Mohicans, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Taking of Pelham 123 - all great films in their own right! 🙂
Open Controls-
Adding all to the list now -:http://www.imdb.com/list/edit?list_id=sVfWhs5MOKk
Didn't know we were that serious. 🙂Open Controls -
The original 123 or the remake? Josey Wales was good also Pale Rider. Henry 5th, not the wartime version.
Open Controls -
I did an essay on Saving private Ryan about ten years ago (comparing it with Picasso's Guernica)...I wrote away to the film makers for info...There's a lot, lot more to that film than people realise...a lot more...!!!
Open Controls-
Yeah, Based on real events relating to 4 actual brothers,
Open Controls-
The pack they sent me was massive...Scene after scene is real..even some of the most random small things...It's a giant of a film once you've seen all that stuff...
Open Controls-
Yeah, i watched a documentary with all these old americans who were involved in the D-Day landings and they were pretty much saying that Steven Spielberg really nailed it. They said the film was a genuine reflection of what is was actually like although they did get carried away with some things that happened in the film

All to do with Americas Sole Survival Policy,
Open Controls-
Oh yeah it's heavily American...Just as an example of the detail...When the car drives up the road to tell the mother that her sons have been killed and the mother drops to the floor...all true..and recounted from a tape recording during research from an interview...It wasn't the actual mother who did that but was a.n. other mother at another point in the war...But it just tells the story of what one mother did....The film is full of that stuff...

Have you seen the movie Come and See ?
Completely different but a good war film too.Open Controls

Any NFL fans on here? I have found myself getting interested in more and more sports this last year, NFL, NBA, Hockey...
Open Controls -
Chuffed to buggery with this one. (WC)
Mignolet
Ivanovic / Walker / Zabaleta
Brady / Oscar / Coutinho / Walcott
Benteke (vc) / Soldado (c) / Giroud
Lewis / Ward-Prowse / Turner / CollinsOpen Controls-
Have to say I don't like Ivan, Oscar or Coutinho
Open Controls-
I picked those defenders as they have attacking potential and are never afraid to get forward.
Courtinho is said to be moving to a more central role now Moses is at Liverpool and with the return of Suarez too.
Oscar, well he may look 5 years old but if he keeps his position in the hole then he is staying.Open Controls

Mignolet // £4m
Zabaleta // Enrique // Collins // Turner // Clyne
Walcott // Lampard // Lamela // HBA // Brady

Lamela a big gamble but I really like that team, it's near what I'm aiming for.
