    Ok so as Jonty mentioned earlier FFS team is working on an updated Ticker. The current one is a bit 'outdated' and all that. (Away to MU a 'very difficult' fixture to get a CS, ha yeah right)

    Can't sleep so I made a quick ticker ratings just now for the Clean Sheet while we wait for the updated one. Who use ticker for attacking anyway.

    If you're not familiar with the numbers then just copy paste the text below to 'Import Rankings' and give it a name 'Updated CS' or 'Kof is a Sexy Spud' or whatever. Then click import.

    {"ARS":{"Home":"1450","Away":"1400"},"AVL":{"Home":"1050","Away":"850"},"CAR":{"Home":"750","Away":"900"},"CHE":{"Home":"1350","Away":"1525"},"CPL":{"Home":"750","Away":"875"},"EVE":{"Home":"1250","Away":"1450"},"FUL":{"Home":"900","Away":"1000"},"HUL":{"Home":"850","Away":"1125"},"LIV":{"Home":"1375","Away":"1500"},"MCI":{"Home":"1450","Away":"1500"},"MUN":{"Home":"1275","Away":"1150"},"NEW":{"Home":"1175","Away":"1275"},"NOR":{"Home":"825","Away":"900"},"SOT":{"Home":"1150","Away":"1275"},"STO":{"Home":"900","Away":"950"},"SUN":{"Home":"750","Away":"900"},"SWA":{"Home":"900","Away":"1400"},"TOT":{"Home":"1150","Away":"1250"},"WBA":{"Home":"1000","Away":"1000"},"WHM":{"Home":"825","Away":"950"}}

    You can stop reading there, but if you're interested to know how I get the figure feel free to carry on.

    _______________

    First of all you need to know how whether the ticker determine a fixture is favorable (blue) or unfavorable (red) for CS is how good is the opponent's attacking is. That is why you see regardless of which team (Hull who's good at home or Fulham who's meh), playing home to CPL is always considered "extremely favourable".

    So basically I formulate the ratings based on team's attacking threat both at home and away.

    And the way to read is the opposite as well. City's 1500 "Away" rating means keeping a CS at Etihad has the difficulty of 1500. (800 is the lowest "extremely favorable" and 1400 is the highest "extremely unfavorable" - anything below and over is outliers).

    Main factor to get the numbers is Goals Scored obviously. In general, teams with the lowest goal score gets a 800 rating and the highest 1400 rating (excluding outliers), and the team in between is just calculated base on their percentile of goals scored and translated into rating of between 800-1400.

    And from that base number then I modify it just a bit based on the team's recent form, league position and other minor factors (change of manager, etc). The changes are very minor (~100 rating at most)

    _____________

    Basically that's that. Note that I intended this to be a personal use but I decided to share it to the community. So use it at your own risk.

    Cheers

      See, I don't understand getting Sunderland defenders or keeper.

      Bottom of the league and liable to get relegated this season. Unlikely to keep many clean sheets considering the reality is that they are probably going to lose most of the games they have left.

      Just doesn't sound like an attractive proposition to me. Strikes me as being a bit like buying QPR or Reading defenders with your January wildcard last season.

      They're bottom for a reason and it's not because they are good at keeping clean sheets.

        He is cheap, playing every game and allows for cash to be spent further up the field. Look at Howard for example, 7 points in the last five games. 1.5m more than Mannone.

          Fair enough, but not for me lads.

          I can't really see many more favourable returns coming up and Southampton, Hull and Newcastle defs offer better CS options for similar prices imo.

          As for your Howard analogy, the painful fact is that over the next 19 games Howard is likely to considerably outscore Mannone. Short term gains at best, methinks.

    seems cabaye is out for the weekend..The achilles injury generally takes how long to heal guys any idea?
    So thinking that Which seems best decision of the 2-->
    1st->do Wally->Ozil with my Ft and play Brunt instead of injured Cabaye
    2nd-> do Wally->Cazorla/Gerrard and Cabaye->Lallana for -4pts
    ranked near top 50 k so feeling cautious over hits but westbroms poor form should do it for lallana?

          I think that's way more punty that Kolarov. Kolarov may be a legend, but that St. Ledger captaincy, born out of lack of other options though it may have been was just glorious. That's not to say others were bad, just that that was incredibly good.

          It's like me punting on Puncheon last GW for 10 points when everyone said go Sterling. It;s good, but it's not 0.3% owned unknown playing Holland good.
