The Big Numbers – Gameweek 21

1,984 Comments
Share

Our usual post-Gameweek members article arrives this evening, as we cast an analytical eye over some of the standout performers over Saturday and Sunday’s ten fixtures.

Spurs’ red-hot frontman chalks up some outrageous statistics on his way to a hat-trick against the Baggies, while Dusan Tadic is more sinner than Saint after spurning chances aplenty. Elsewhere, Robert Snodgrass shows the benefits of a central role under his new manager and we check in on the impressive figures being produced by Arsenal’s overlooked wide man.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

          If there's something to worry about Costa I can downgrade to lukaku / Defoe and upgrade Phillips to iwobi/pedro

          Are we really comparing Benteke to Kane?
          One is playing for a better team, still has pens and has players around him that provides him with good chances.

          People are allowed to chose whomever they want, but if it was a choice between Benteke and Kane, there's only one winner. And I think most people would agree. 🙂

    Thinking of saving my FT this week. GTG? Or play Origi instead of someone?

    --------------------------| Foster | -------------------------
    ---------------| McAuley | Rose | Alonso | ------------
    ---| San(c)hez | Eriksen | Ali | Lallana | Phillips |--
    ----------------------| Ibra | Costa | -----------------------

    Subs: | Jakupovic | Origi | Holebas | Amat |

    1FT £0.2M itb

    Wanting to get Baines in soon (along with a cheapie in for Origi for 3-5-2, and maybe Lukaku for Giroud down the line), but not thinking it is worth a hit, despite him being on pens?

          Kane and Alonso won't play until the weekend, so they should be safe to bring in. The question is if you have players that could actually get injured (for example any LIV-players).

    Thoughts on this wc team...

    Heaton, Grant
    Williams, Alonso, Daniels, Brunt, Wasilewski
    Pedro, Erikson, Sanchez, Phillips, De roon
    Ibra, Kane, Defoe

    Or should I do Phillips + Defoe (343) > Lallana + Barnes (352)

    Thanks!

      No, go for 3-4-3.
      Remove Williams to Baines. Downgrade Grant to Jaku and play Heaton every GW.
      How much is Wasilewski?? Change him to Love (4.0).

      That would be my recommendation. 🙂
