We dig into the weekend data now, with the first of our weekly articles for members. Under the radar this time are City’s Spanish frontman, the Cardiff midfield, Everton’s full-backs, Sunderland’s wide-boy and the new role for Liverpool’s captain:
Afraid you came second, opposite way round for me in bed no matter what I promise

When they feel like it (honestly have no idea, seems really random when they update it to me)

Negative or positive? Hope I'm not asking you to reveal too much to a non-member 🙂
Open ControlsAhh 😉
Well I don't mean to wish misfortune on you but I hope he fails in his new role - two of my biggest rivals just brought him in on their WCs!Open Controls
Don't need the paragraph, it was obvious from watching the game.

Is gerrard now off the radar as a fantasy prospect.? He's still too good to be pushed back just yet
Open Controls
he's been defensive midfield for about 18 months now. his excellent set-pieces combined with being in a team who win a tonne of set-pieces keep him afloat
Open Controls
shhh, let them penalty chase
Open ControlsThis. Knowing my luck this season he will continue banging 'em in though!

Thinking of wildcarding at the end, save FT?
Mannone
Evra Johnson Coleman
Yaya Silva Cabaye Sterling Eriksen
Suarez Lukaku
Lewis Ward Gabbidon RooneyOpen Controls
What do you prefer for the long term:
a) Ozil, Oscar, Lukaku
b) Hazard, Gerrard, GiroudOpen Controls

Open Controls
Four out of Silva, Hazard, Cabaye, Lallana, Eriksen to start this week?
Open Controls
Has he made a bomb?
Open ControlsEat, sleep and drink footie, don't need stats regards this, this guy ain't even started yet.
Open ControlsBig time, powerful, doesn't give in, even on a bad day, has class. Be even better next season imo.

I have paid and I still couldn't find it.
Members area is so confusing to meOpen Controls
How did your gw fare out MJ ?
67 here on a Wc but worryingly slightly dissapointed with team , already thinking 3/4 fixes !Open Controls
Nasri and Lukaku ➡ Eriksen and Kun, -4, Yay or Nay?
Open Controlsyay
Open Controls
I've got to go through this whole thing again. Ok. I'm Woy. I'm addict to TV having bought Sturridge yesterday. I need help.
Open Controls
What do we think of this for a WC team, 0.5 left to spare.
Boruc - Davis
Sagna - Kolarov - Ward - Chester - Hudson
Ozil - Navas - Eriksen - Oscar - Noone
Lukaku - Aguero - SuarezOpen ControlsDon't like Navas' rotation. Kolarov could be a great shout if he keeps his place
Open ControlsCity injuries, nasri in particular, has opened the door for Navas. He is a really good player
Open Controls
Looks like one of those Wildcard teams we've been seeing.

Reminds me I need Spurs coverage. Thanks.

I had a look at what would be the best attacking team based on some underlying attacking stats (shot data, chance creation data etc.) and best value. The front 7 looks like this:
Ozil, Walcott, Ramsey, Eriksen
Suarez, Aguero, Sturridge.
Obviously Walcott's a non-option now, but Hazard or Silva make a brilliant replacement. Eriksen may seem a surprise choice but his stats are incredibly and offers you ~9.0m potential for ~7.0m. The model rates Sturridge as the 3rd best striker as well, lending evidence to the potential for an SAS strikeforce.
If anyone's interested, I wrote some more indepth comments here http://thefirsttouchblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/the-player-raters-team-of-half-season.htmlOpen Controls
Ozil and Lukaku to Ramsey and Aguero
Yay or NayOpen Controls
Obvious yay IF the latter 2 are fit to play next gw

Just want to clarify, in case people were confused earlier...
I earlier posted a comment about Lukaku being ''a lucky man'' and posted a video of a song called ''Lucky Man'' by Greg Lake.
Now, people started replying and telling me it was ''racist'' and ''prejudiced'' and I'm not a racist or prejudiced person whatsoever.
Now, I looked into it, and the song is about war, yes, but I cannot see anything to do with racism in the song whatsoever, considering the writer of the song himself is not racist, and is a nice guy.
All I was saying is, Lukaku is lucky. Case closed.Open ControlsFirst step to being a racist is denial.
Open ControlsI'm not a racist, though. I'm a person who gets easily upset about being called a racist, and I know people love to take advantage of that.
If I was really racist, I wouldn't have made a huge post about how I'm not racist, in case anybody thought I was.Open ControlsCloset racist imo, the initial post proves it.
Open ControlsHow does it prove anything? I said Lukaku was a lucky man and then posted a song called ''Lucky Man'' to follow up.
I also wasn't trying to refer to Lukaku in any of the other lyrics in the song, just the ''Lucky Man'' part.Open Controls
Hmmm you can't close the case here mate. YOU ARE BEING INVESTIGATED.
Open Controls
WC or not ?
Lloris , Mannone > Boruc & Kelvin Davis
GJ > Chester
Amalfitano > Januzaj
Morrison > Livermore
Lukaku > Aguero
Dzeko > Giroud
Keeping : Coleman / Mert / Burner / Ward / Yaya /Hazard / Ozil / SuarezOpen Controls
Who's your 5th midfield of choice?
Bannan has lost his place it seems.Open Controls
Considering price and upcoming fixtures:
Ozil or Gerrard
Eriksen or Lallana
Also bear in mind that I already have Ozil and Lallana, but Gerrard could free me up to get a better defense. I also have Hazard and ToureOpen Controls
Worth having Baines and Coleman for the remainder of the season. Baines has a higher points per game then Coleman and I think he will continue to outscore him.
Dont want to get rid of Coleman though as i've had him all season and brought him in in my original team for 5m.Open ControlsAs an Irishman I say to keep Coleman. Either way keep Coleman mate 🙂
Open ControlsIm an Irish man myself not getting rid of him just wondering weather to double with Baines
Open ControlsI personally would not because of how much you have to depend on one team then so my answer is no
What to do with my FT this week. Dont want to use it sparingly
