Gareth Bale and Robin Van Persie top our ICT Index rankings for the midweek matches, with the likes of Marouane Fellaini and Adel Taarabt also flourishing to catch the eye. They all come under focus in the Big Numbers analysis, as we provide our members with a few of the key stats from Gameweek 14…
I am finding it really difficult not to transfer Mata out for Walcott for a hit. I know he is almost certain to start this weekend, but I really can't see any future value for Mata playing under Benitez as I can see him playing deeper like Xabi Alonso used to. Don't get me wrong, Alonso was/is an incredible footballer however he never really delivered in fantasy terms and I can see Mata following this route. With the possible threat of rotation in the future (playing deep in a team that aren't really gelling), a blank GW on the horizon and an away match against a defensively solid West Ham (who only conceded 1 at Old Trafford), I am finding it really difficult not to pull the trigger on Walcott, who has some nice fixtures and the potential to explode! It would be for a hit but there are other areas of my team that need addressing so I'm tempted to just do it now. Any thoughts?

Do you have any other Arsenal attacker?
Open ControlsNo I don't.
Open Controls
I am on the same boat, mate. Just concerned about the injury update Wenger gave post-match.
Open Controls
Put it this way if walcott scores & mata does nothing but keep a clean sheet you'll be no better off. Its a no brainer. Wait till you can do it for free
Open ControlsBut he'll save a transfer that he would make in the future anyway.

did anyone watch the Swans West Brom game......why didn't West Brom make any substitutions?
Open ControlsI think Clarke made his team suffer for going down 3-0 so early. He seems like a really strict manager with agendas.

Doubt it's that simple!
Open ControlsHe wouldn't start.

Who should i play: Sterling or Lallana?Open Controls
Sterling by a big margin.
Open Controls
@Aatish i hope u checked my comment on your post!
Open Controls
Yep, just did.
I think Walcott will be fine for Saturday. I'll wait for further news on him anyway.
I'm benching Fellaini this week so I want to get rid of Hazard. Also, he might be rested now for the CL game.
Mata will surely start. Why not stick with him?Open ControlsIMO they are struggling offensively. Got a feelin Hazard could be rested also so if he comes on for a 1 pt cameo u'll be pissed
Also Enrique could go Berzerk this week so can u sacrifice such an opportunity?
Whatever u do i hope u dont bench sterling 🙂 hoping u do the right choices.
Cheers!Open Controls

Team linked guys.
Baines + Mata ----> Enrique + Walcott
good moves for free right??Open ControlsI'm considering for a hit, So yes!
Open Controls
So I wouldn't take a hit to do Mata + Clyne > Fellaini +Enrique, but if Fellaini goes up before next week, I won't be able to afford to. Should I still wait and re-consider everything next week or take the hit?
