The Big Numbers – Gameweek 12

We turn our attentions to the weekend’s nine matches now and delve into the data in our first member’s article of the week. Chelsea, Man City and Tottenham’s goalscoring midfielders arrive on our radar, whilst Swansea’s in-form frontman and Andy Carroll’s impact on West Ham’s style of play are also amongst this evening’s topics.

    Does any1 know why Chester didnt play?

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Because I have him as a sub and needed his points?

      1. Jafalad
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        No - he had to take his wife Christmas shopping. 😉

    2. Demí

      Shift to four at the back - he was the fall guy.

        Thanks Demi. Really can't deal with another non-playing player, damnit. Already have Baines, Chadli and Sakho. But all 3 should be fit next week right?

        1. Demí
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Would be confident on Baines and Sakho, less so Chadli. But ideally wait for more news. Bound to be something over the coming days.

            cheers!

    I can see Pelle getting a decent score against MCI.

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      What about tonight?

      1. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Just one goal tonight.

        But could be the winner to bag those baps.

    2. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Planned on ditching, but looks like being forced to deal with injuries instead

  3. Willis.
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Taylor (4 yellows) or Bartley (rotation risk) till Jan?

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Naylor. Pick Players that Play.

      1. Willis.
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        He could easily get a booking next game and miss the following. Bartley could easily start the next 2.

        1. mason419
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Next 2? Big whoop, you said till January.. Naylor will miss 1 game max out of 7 till jan. Bartley will miss atleast 3 when Fernandez comes back

        2. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Missing one game is not an issue especially at that price

    2. Man Chest Hair United
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      depends on where the .8 could be reinvested ideally taylor is the better option but Bartley is great value for the next month

  4. Man Chest Hair United
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Sorry for the repost and thanks mersey side red for your input anyone else care to help out. Obviously an uber d that could use an upgrade ?

    Forster/Gilks

    Clyne/Dummett/Wisdom/Duff/Yun

    Sanchez/ADM/Fab/Siggy/Marney

    Costa/Aguero/Pelle

    2ft any thoughts on what to do would be much appreciated : )

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yun->Azpi
      Fab->Downing

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        cheers mate but fab is ticking over well and i have had since GW1 so would loose value and downing is injured?

        1. Jafalad
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Yes, I admit there are risks involved.

          However, Fabs is carrying an injury and is on 4 yc. Your main issue is you have 3 big mids that are weakening your defence.

          I feel you have to prioritise what you want the most: some balance in your defence and midfield or a very strong midfield with a weak defence?

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      ADM -> Oscar
      Duff/Yun -> Naylor/Cresswell

      ??

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        cheers chaps any value in going Pelle to Kane and Clyne to baines? my cheapies seem rotate well so only need 3 backs each week

    This chap knows how to pick his Captain and has never owned Aguero or Costa so far this season

      Amazing. Adebayor, Fletcher & Zamora were his strikeforce although Zamora was a benchie.

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years

        Apart from Ulloa in GW7 - should have stuck with the mids!

    6. justgiving.com/JonnyChard

      Incredible! Shows you how important Captaincy choices are!

  6. Tezmoore
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    On my WC:

    Krul (Elliot)
    Azpiliceuta / Baines / Drummett (Wisdom / Yun)
    Siggy / Chadli / Sanchez / Hazzard (Wanyama)
    De Costa / Aguero / Berahino

    Which is best option??

    Option A) Baines / Chadli / Berahino
    Option B) Chambers / Di Maria / Kane

  7. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    if both downing and chadli are out for a while then considering shipping them out for Oscar and boyd. Suggestions? Current team -

    courtois
    baines clyne dummet
    siggy sanchez hazard chadli
    pelle sakho aguero

    subs myhill downing chambers moore

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      like the moves

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        sahko also a concern?

  8. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    I should be happy at having two players tonight. Trouble is, they are not Bertrand, Tadic or Pelle. 😐

    1. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Clyne + Hutton?

      Guzan?

      Wanyama? 😛

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Clyne and Mane

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Mane could prove a better option than Tadic this week, I'd be happy enough with those two.

          Pelle is crap anyway 😉

    2. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Going in with Clyne too.

      And Pelle.

      And Wanyama 🙁

      1. Woy of the Wovers
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I'll see your Wanyama and raise you a Tadic and a Guzan. Looking for lots of clumsy penalty area challenges from Villa.

  9. Irish Madridista ⭐
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Am I safe in assuming that ONE of Chadli and Downing should be fit by next weekend?

    I'm only screwed if both are ruled out..

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      No

      1. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Haha I was expecting that 😛 Oh well, lets see how the week pans out, I still have the auld WC if necessary.

      2. Man Chest Hair United
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        hard to say many reports are that downing is out for a while

    2. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I assumed that one of baines, sakho, downing and chadli would be fit this gw......got screwed!

  10. Fplnooob
    • 10 Years

      C

    2. Judas

      C

    3. bialk
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Pelle -> Austin, cause you already have Syggy

    4. Tezmoore
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I'm looking at E

    5. Podge
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I like E

    6. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years

      F could be a good shout

    7. kingmig84
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      H) Chadli & Pelle ----> ADM & Austin

  12. Judas
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Thinking of strengthening up my defence with my 2 FT:

    Forster + Clyne + Jags ---> Fabianski + Terry + Jenkinson (for -4)

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I'd take Azpi or Cahill over Terry.

      1. Judas
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        How come?

  13. Tezmoore
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Decided to use my WC..... Any changes required??

    Krul (Elliot)
    Azpiliceuta / Baines / Drummett (Wisdom / Yun)
    Siggy / Chadli / Sanchez / Hazzard (Wanyama)
    De Costa / Aguero / Berahino

    Which is my best combination option??

    Option A) Baines / Chadli / Berahino
    Option B) Chambers / Di Maria / Kane
    Option C) Baines / Eriksen / Kane

  14. Irish Madridista ⭐
    • 13 Years

    When is Siem De Jong out until?

  15. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    It's great looking at your team and not seeing Begovic in it anymore 🙂

  16. Woy
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Getting Lloris was such an error

    1. Podge
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      A boat I very nearly caught, luckily stuck with Krul

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Goalkeepers have been trolls this year, with Bego getting a clean sheet vs City but otherwise being crap, Fabianski proving great value even though Swansea were supposed to be purely attacking, and Lloris failing now after starting brilliantly 😉

      1. Woy
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Had DDG for his 'easy' fixtures. He got a couple of alright scores, then switched to LLoris as he was on form and I had the spare FT and Pow nosedive

        1. Bob Sacamano
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Same here, in our defence it did look great on paper... I'm going Lloris > Courtois next week i think.

  17. Podge
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    The next month or two will show up the weakness of the non playing bench fodder

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I already had my dose this week. 🙁

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      This, always try to have at least 2 playabe benchers..

  20. Davros
    • 14 Years

    4 players tonight. Either rescue my gameweek or an extra 8 points. Probably the latter*

    *if I'm lucky

  21. New Post
  22. NorwEagles
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    69 points this week and pretty chuffed. I think it's time to get off the southampton train, though. My team is

    Fabianski (Myhill)
    (Ivanovic - Clyne - Dummett (Hutton - Wisdom)
    Hazard - Fabregas - Tadic - Sanchez (Boyd)
    Aguero - Pelle - Kane

    I think I'll ship Ivanovic, Tadic and pelle to get in Costa. Who would you pick for the final two slots. I'm torn between siggy and chadli as the mid, and thinking chambers for defender.

    Any input?
