We delve into the data in the first members article of the week as we assess the stand-out statistics over Saturday and Sunday’s eight matches. Everton’s left back, Newcastle and Villa’s top scorers, Chelsea’s weekend goal hero and Cardiff’s attack under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer are some of the topics brought under analysis this time around:
I've never seen a team with Howson in before?!
And this is rich coming from a guy who owned Cabral for so long 😆 !!!Open Controls
It was a terrible pick Evs, I planned on doing Bacuna to Fer last week, not only does Fer get injured then Bacuna scores and gets 2 BAPS.
So I thought Howson would replace Fer but Hoolahan got his spot 🙁Open Controls
Howson captain?
If not maybe hazard over Rooney. Rooney plays v deep.Open Controls
Whats the story with Puncheon folks?
Open Controls
Bit of a mystery. Pulis apparently said he was rested but eyebrows were raised at that in local press. Possibly a fall-out after the charge from FA perhaps? Will be interesting to see what happens this weekend. Puncheon had been their most threatening player of late.
Open ControlsCheers, would like to get him, but a bit risky.
Open Controls
yea, what gives?
Open Controls
I give up.
There just isn't a transfer worth the punt for this gw.
I'm playing 7 this week and then loading up with city & pool players for the DGW.Open Controls
Will I do? -4
Cech
Evra Caulker Azpi R Bennett
Punch Mata Hazard Snodgrass
Ade JRod(C)Open ControlsFingers crossed, can't see Bennett starting though
Open ControlsThis is me at the moment...
Boruc
Ward, burner, Vidic (or Azpi)
Snoddy, Mata, Haz, No one
RVP, Ade.
3 doubts there with no bench....Open ControlsCan you not afford Evra?
Id really like to have RVP this GW, funds don't allow 🙁
RVP(c)?Open ControlsI can, but I am keeping every penny to fund Aguero.
Open Controls
Ok so quickie
Gabbidon to
a) Evra
b) Pieters
c) Ward
d) Chambers
e) Save FT. Play a man less. No hit for DGW team.Open Controls
Strange but true...Since returning fully from injury Steven Gerrard has scored 55pts in eight games...Yaya has scored 48pts in his last eight games...Yet I haven't seen Gerrard in anybody's plans for the DGW31...I might have to change that.
Open ControlsI'm thiking may drop Suraez for that extra Liverpool spot
Open Controls
Open ControlsPlenty of posts around about Jammy Yaya and Jammy Gerrard topping up their scores with pens...The fact is that Liverpool and City take more touches in the box than any other team..More touches in the box = more pens...Nothing jammy about that at all.
Open Controls
Those points are always jammy when you don't own said player 😛
Open Controls
Mert and Bruce to?
Cameron and Smalling
or Azpilicueta over either?Open Controls
Has anyone got a list of the TBC fixtures ie the ones not currently on the ticker?
Would be really useful if this could be added to ticker, maybe as a TBC column in place of the much-maligned GW 39!Open ControlsI'm WCing before the doubles and want to be able to plan my DGW-to-come dream team 😀 I love a good double!

Squeaky bum time for Puncheon if he doesn't go to the lavatory before kick off too..

Having a WC left has turned out really well this season. In last couple of weeks I've been able to reinforce my team for next week, knowing I'll be WCing afterwards.
Currently team is looking like:
Marshall
Terry-Burner-Mariappa (yeah, I know!)
Mata-Ince-Lallana-Snodgrass-Hazard
Adebayor
Currently thinking of bringing in Rooney - anyone got any better ideas?
Just hope these lot can get a few points, a lot of 1 or 2 pointers looking likely :-sOpen Controls
How does this look for this weekend especially with the depleted amount of players?
Boruc
Cahill Azpil Dann
Hazard Mata Lallana Puncheon
Adebayor
Davis; Yaya, Sturridge, Suarez, Koscielny, DemelOpen ControlsYep! Really was him or Parr. Went with Dann
Open ControlsProbably should have got Ward. But I need the dollar for aguero
Open Controls
Nothing wrong with Dann if you want a cheap CP defender.
Open ControlsNeeded someone who played. Plus he will have a double gameweek at some point. Uses the bench place for a whole but actually plays (Had Mariappa before)
Open ControlsAll correct, ignore the naysayer.
Open Controls
This...plays this week and has a double GW. Plus Pullis has them tight and so a good bet for home games esp against teams around them in the the table
Open Controls
Sturridge > Rooney for GW 29 & 30 then get him Back Agian for DGW ?
Open Controls
Why are all good transfer moves always 0.1m over available funds ?!
Open Controls
You probably know roughly who you can afford, so that's the kind of player you aim for.
Also, the Fantasy Gods are angry.Open Controls
Begovic
Open Controls
Evening lads
This my team at present with 2ft and £4.9 to spend
Boruc
Baines, Chester, Kos
Mirallas, Ox, Sterling, Lallana,
RVP, Suarez, Ade
Davis, Burner, Gnarby, Ward
This GW going to bring in Evans and Mata for the arsenal pair plus puncheon for Mirallas for a hit
Next week bring in Aguero and Flanagan (-4) for Ade and Burner
This gives me
9 for,29
8 DGW for 31
Good or Bad plan? Or not interested ?Open Controls
Are Premier League tickets normally available from the clubs? If not, where do you get them? Is there an English StubHub or something? At some point, I'm going to have to visit England and I definitely need to work at least one match in.
Open Controls
I've rocked up to Goodison on the day of the game twice and got good tickets.
Open ControlsGreat. Everton are actually who I'd probably like to see, though I'm not really a fan of any particular team. How much is a good ticket?
Open Controls
Most Everton games you will get a ticket from stubhub for £22-£25,got one 4 weeks ago £21 for the Top Balcony,boss spec too.
Open Controls
Everton and most other clubs have a stubhub site.
Open ControlsThanks. So they do. For some reason, nothing came up under the premier league section of the site. But when I just google it, it comes right up.
Open ControlsYep it's a good site mate,Everton West Ham tickets the weekend were £17-£19 on stubhub,i use it quite a bit .
Open ControlsSo what way does it work to get the tickets they posted out printed off or box office collection?
Open ControlsBox office collection usually mate,got 2 tickets for the Everton Villa game that way,or sometimes they will get posted to you,but most games you will be paying less than face value,it's a spot on service
Open Controls
Im from the US and I'll be in London the weekend of the chelsea arsenal match, has anyone experienced any luck with getting tickets for a chelsea game in a similar manner? Or any suggestions? Dying to see my first PL game. Thanks
Open ControlsThat'll be sold out. Get them prior.
Open Controls
My GW29 team:
Ward, Cahill, Azpi
Lallana, Snod, Mata, Hazard
Ade
God I'm in trouble 😆Open Controls
Had 10 for this week (no hits) but now have 2 lovely yellow flags in my team.
All about the captain pick this week.Open Controls
Anyone here watch True Detective?
Up there with Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones for me.Open Controls
It's a modern classic.
BB and GoT are popcorn material in comparison.Open ControlsNo, but heard it's good. It's next on my series to watch. So you'd recommend it? It has the Captain Shirokov seal of approval?
Open ControlsOf course. 🙂
Open Controls
If I don't like things like lord of the rings will I not like game of thrones?
Open Controls
I saw the first series of game of thrones. Thought it should have been called game of pervs.
Never seen breaking bad. But the storyline sounds boring: old teacher gets cancer and decides to become a drug dealing gangster. Whoopy doo.
True detective looks good but I don't have a clue what's it's about. I love Luther though.Open Controls
nowhere near the wire then
Open ControlsThe wire is exceptional but not as exciting and you don't feel as involved as breaking bad.
Open Controls
So my 7 players for GW29 atm -
Terry - Ivanovic
Mata - Lallana - Hazard - Puncheon
Ade
(Adrian, Mannone, Vlaar, Kosc, Bruce, Sterling, SAS)
I have 2FT this week - comments on this plan up to GW31 please? -
GW29 - Koscielny & Ade out for Chambers & RVP
GW30 - Bruce out for Demel/Collins
GW31 - Lallana & Hazard out for Nolan & Yaya for -4 ( Giving me 9 DGW players)
I know it seems strange taking out my only striker with a game next week, but I don't want to drop one of SAS as I will want to buy them back for GW31. I dont see Ade getting more than 2 points at Stamford Bridge, and with Spurs in the Europa League still, I'm happy to let him go. I am also looking for a differential in my mini league and think RVP could be my best bet.Open Controls
Looking to ship Mert to free up some funds,
Really like the look & price of Chambers
My 2 questions is he nailed on?
Is there a bettet 4 mil option (already own ward)
Thanks in advanceOpen Controls
Good to go guys???
Marshall
Azpi-Evra-Ivanovic-Ward
