Sky Sports Focus – Gameweek 20

With the festive double Gameweek behind us it’s time to assess the usual info. We cast an eye over the Man of the Match (MoTM) awards and the bonus point beneficiaries and, as always, look ahead to the forthcoming fixtures, offering our preferred captain setup, with one eye on Gameweek 21.

Gameweek 19 Man of the Match Awards

Listed below is a match-by-match breakdown of the players who won the plaudits from the Sky Sports reporters last time out, earning five additional points for the Man-of-the-Match award.

Crystal Palace vs NewcastleYohan Cabaye

Man City vs LiverpoolFernandinho

Over the double Gameweek, two goalkeepers, three defenders, nine midfielders and six forwards shared the awards. Lots of high ownership players stood out over this period with Wayne Rooney getting a special mention as the only player to gain MoTM in both his games. Rooney now joins Curtis Davies on six MoTM awards overall.

Gameweek 19 Bonus Points

Five goalkeepers managed five saves or more – Brad Guzan, Adrian, Maarten Stekelenburg, Gerhard Tremmel and Vito Mannone were the top shot stoppers. Mannone managed a stunning 15 saves over both games netting him saves bonus twice – at just 4.2 million he looks a good budget option if he can keep his place under Gus Poyet.

In defence, a total of 11 players gathered bonus, seven for tackles and five for passes completed – over the two games, Liverpool centre-back Mamadou Sakho managed to pick up passing bonus twice after racking up an impressive 148 completed passes in total. Crystal Palace full-back Joel Ward is still the top defender for bonus points overall with an additional 18 points.

In midfield, 26 players earned bonus points – 14 for tackling and 16 for passes. Deep-lying playmakers Yaya Toure, Lucas and Mikel Arteta all delivered passing bonus twice whilst Arteta also managed to gain tackling once, bringing him a total of six extra points. Aaron Ramsey still sits on top of the pile overall with 28 additional bonus points earned.

A few forwards also found themselves amongst the bonus points this week – both Johan Elmander and Jay Rodriguez were defending from the front as they earned tackling bonus with a total of six tackles each. Wayne Rooney was the only forward to gather passing bonus after sitting deeper than usual in the game against Aston Villa and racking up 69 passes.

A reminder that Fantasy Football Scout Members can access all the data regarding bonus points using player stats and clicking the Sky Sports tab.

Gameweek 20 Proposed Captain Strategy

Looking ahead to the captaincy choices for Gameweek 20 there is an opportunity for three captains, using only a single armband change due to a full schedule of fixtures on New Year’s Day.

Our Strategy:
Yaya Toure (Crystal Palace at Home) → Luis Suarez (Chelsea Away) → Luis Suarez (Hull at Home)

For Saturday December 28, targeting a Man City asset looks profitable as they square up to Crystal Palace at home – with rotation expected to play a part here, the Ivorian’s guaranteed starts could be key. The other outstanding option is to play safe somewhat and opt for Man United front man Wayne Rooney who is also less likely to find himself ‘rested’ away to Norwich.

For Sunday December 29, we opt for a captain change to Liverpool’s Luis Suarez – although he plays away to Chelsea in a tough match at the Bridge, he then plays again on January 1 at home to Hull, where points look a certainty.

        Davis is not better than Boruc. He's a great dressing room presence and a great team player but he was a serious liability at the start of last season. Since Boruc has gotten fit he's been a major asset.

    Everyone very quick to be selling Ramsey, the highest scoring midfielder in the game, without any definitive news on his injury. May only miss the next 2 games & surely people are going to lost a lot of value. I need Silva, already have Theo, but just can't bring myself to hit the sell button on Ramsey just yet. Anyone else still undecided on whether to sell or not?

      Even decided not to sell but enjoying watching the rush for the door. He's the best value mid for 7.0m - my selling price - and that will only change if he is out for an extended period. If this happens, I'll use Jan WC to shift with the aim of bringing him back when he returns.

      Let's say he is only out for two games (though it could be longer). Will he be eased back, or thrown in for 90 minutes on his return? Who knows. And of course, he could always be out longer.

      Meantime, the guy you would have gotten for him has been picking up points while Ramsey sits on your bench losing value.

      Play for the next three games. If your guy might be out for 3 games, drop him immediately and pick up somebody who will get you the points. Every time I've hung on to someone, thinking he'll be right back *coughsturridgecough* I've regretted it.

      I was going for Wally, but I had a look at Newcastle's defensive stats and they've been scary good. I've got it fixed on Wazza at the moment. I can't see it changing.

      I've never seen Silva as Captaincy material for some reason. He can have a terrific game, and get no attacking points. Even if he gets points, Goal-scorers > Assisters for baps as well.

      I don't know. I got all hot, bothered, and confused when I looked at your grav. That's some smokin' hot meat right there. OK. I've composed myself. That looks like a toss-up, meaning that either player is worth bringing in. Lallana would likely get you more double-figure gameweeks, but not sure he's quite as consistent as Cabaye. Really hard to argue against either chap, however.
