West Brom’s Romelu Lukaku heads up our ICT Index rankings after a weekend of football, with Wigan’s Franco Di Santo an unlikely name to keep Robin Van Persie company in our top three. Our members can investigate these standings in full, digesting all the data from the weekend’s action. Big Numbers makes a return to pick out our take on the key statistics on show, together with an array of trends that have emerged over the past four Gameweeks…
Cheers guys was also considering Anichebe but that might be a little farfetch

From bottom of last page:
Who are you picking / have you picked as your wildcard midfielders? Why?Open ControlsGerrard, Walcott/Fellaini, Mata, Michu, Punch/AJ.
Open ControlsMata - no explanation needed
Bale - has more efforts on goal than just about any other midfielder (has in the last 6 wks anyway)
Michu - have him from GW1.
Walcott - playing upfront and has learned how to finish. Will certainly finish as Arsenals top scorer and prob hit 20 goals - fitness permitting. Is also an assist machine
Fellaini - main focal point of an excellent Everton team and has his scoring boots on this season also.Open Controls"have him from GW1" is not, in itself, a reason for keeping someone.
Open ControlsJees, thats what you took from my post, 61 with Mata, Luiz and B ato play - you should be happier
But ok then, I got him for 6.5 and at that money theres isn't a player to touch him for the goal threat he carries. He's on fire this season and wont come out of my team unless he gets injured. He is an excellent reader of the game with a kncck for bring in the right place at the right time and the focal point of a good footballing Swansea side that create a lot of chances.Open Controls
My attack is:
Hazard, Mata, Young, Walcott, Puncheon
RVP, Benteke, Suarez
Seeing that Young looks to be out, does Young -> J. Cole and Hazard -> Cazorla for a 4 point hit sound right?Open ControlsThe plan was to do Bale-> Santi for the DGW(Have walcott) but now I'm not sure I want any part of that move. Outside Walcott,Gibbs, Demel and Jassi who are you guys looking at for the DGW?
Open ControlsPodolski, Giroud a gamble, Oxlade a bigger gamble, and Joe Cole/Jarvis if QPR are in tears after Nelsen leaves.
Open ControlsBeen think bout the Ox, could be an interesting bet.
Open Controls
not bothering with anyone , dont want to have three chelsea three arsenal and three west ham
Open ControlsHave walcott, gibbs, demel....i might consider getting pod for ba depending on wed performance
Open ControlsPodolski... but I'm waiting to see what Ba does against Southampton first.
Open Controlsyeah them stats don't look great but IF Ba looks like not getting the points and being rotated himself then Pod may well be a decent punt for the DGW
Open Controls
Alright guys need some dgw coverage this is my team
Begovic – Bunn
Ivanovic – Cole – Davies – Demel – Gunter
Mata – Bale – Michu – Fellaini – Puncheon
RVP – Suarez – Lambert
Bale -> Walcott and Cole -> Gibbs/Whm defender for a 4pt hit?
Any other suggestions?Open ControlsI was looking through my bookmarks and found these two images. 😆

In Bruges it is kind of a dark comedy.
Open Controls
Who should I pick for my 3rd striker?
A. Bryan Ruiz
B. Kenwyne JonesOpen ControlsDo you expect to play them, i.e. rotate with the 5th mid?
Of those two, Ruiz is better anyway.Open ControlsA
Open ControlsJussi
Demel Gibbs Luiz
BIG 5
RVP Ba
bench davis pog clyne bego
Is it worth going Ba to Podolski? or Bale to Caz?
seriously thinking neither worth the effort , seriously
underwhelmed with Podolsky , Caz would be nice but
dont think it worth saddling myself with to arsenal mids
as would have to remove next week to bring Bale back
Anyone see a better transfer?Open Controlsignore , posted in wrong place
Open Controls
Trigger, we are now tied 🙂
Open ControlsHaha , finally caught you back up 🙂 , now we just need keep the pack at bay
Open ControlsNo, no, no.
Trigger we are now drawing.
None of that USA stuff on here, thank you very much.Open Controls
So next week I think we're looking at
RVP most captained
RVP most vice captainedOpen ControlsWhich club in the EPL do you think would be the most likely to acquire this gem? Can't see him being needed at any club who can afford him if i'm honest...

Anyone see a better transfer?Open ControlsShame cant have a big 6 !!! or would kick Ba out for Gerrard
Open ControlsWent for Pod myself. Top ten striker with a DGW who has racked up points with minimal minutes. If he gets 120-150 she should score well.
Open ControlsSame dilemma here. I think I may stick and then try to bring in Kun next week with 2 FT.
Don't you have enough for Ba >> Suarez, btw?Open Controlsno im .6 short of bringing Suarez in , would rather wait until after there tough away games , plus could be sturridg banging them in now
Open Controls
Can you afford Ba to Aguero?
Open Controlsi share your opinion about Podolsi and Caz... but i don't actually see where you could spend that FT.
Have you considered playing B.Davies next week, wondering if i should play him over Azpi myself.Open Controlsyea that one a coin toss , but Luiz more attacking.
Saving it sounds a plan , but like last week im worried that with so many others
buying the DGWs its a big risk to be withoutOpen ControlsAfter downgrading Luiz i will be able to afford any striker i want , but do i really want Aguero?? His points per game are a digrace this season
Open Controlsif he his fit for next week could be a great differential against one of the leakiest defenses away from home
Open Controls
I’m in the same boat and I don’t like the way the river is flowing. Its a DGG and sometimes you have to chance it that something good could happen. Maybe if Ba flops Pod is a decent shout
Open ControlsYep , can see thats what i will end up doing , mainly because there not really much option , cant say im happy about it though
Open Controls
Do I play Michu (STK) or Snodgrass (liv) next GW? Snodgrass seems to get more points away than at home.
Open ControlsIgnoring dgw which option would you go for?
A) tevez, marveux, martin
B) pof, fellani, Gibbs.
Note that with option b I have no city attacking coverage at all. Rest of team:
Bego bunn
Luiz zab demel Wilson x?
Mata bale Walcott michu x?
Rvp sturridge x?Open Controls*pog

Verb > Dzeko for me this week methinks, with the WC coming I can afford some punts and city could hammer fulham.
Open ControlsIf Verb is Berbatov, sounds like a great move. The only thing to be wary off is gametime for Dzeko, but he seems to score even when he comes off the bench. Reasonable move.
Open ControlsAgreed. Very nervous about not having any City coverage. But you can't have 'em all.
Open Controls
Wow great rank. All the big boys come out to play after midnight.
I agree I think City will spank Fulham. I have the money for Torres -> Aguero but if he's ruled out it will be Dzeko for me also.Open Controls
Isacki, I am at 76%...thanks for the shout, been meaning to watch this film for a long time.
Open Controlsany1 know if bale and mata are expected to rise in price again this week?
I have my wc currently active and if i subbed them both in now id be left with 0.
Ive got Joe cole and walcott+santi for the dgw- dunno whether to sacrifice them for the long term benefits..would cost me at least a 4p hit next week as well..Open Controlsdont get bale till the end of the week , he should be cheaper , get mata soon
Open ControlsI dunno, those 3 phantom boners might stop the rot on Bale.
Open Controls

Walcott yes ( in about 30 mins ), Bale maybe.Open Controls
Arsenal play Swansea on Wednesday , guess there no point trying decide anything before then , may as well chill out for a few days
Open ControlsAlright, off to see Catch Me if You Can (Cheers, Isacki)
Night all...at least we have one more game to look forward to this week 😀Open ControlsBest one week punt for a striker, max price 7.5, currently thinking of lukaku, any other options?
Open Controlshttp://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21005374
Savage says Sturridge will do well.. it must be true!!Open ControlsThink I'm going to wait on getting Walcott in as there's a FA cup game midweek...correct?
It will probably make Gibbs out of my price range but it'd be for a hit I don't think it's that big a deal missing out on him.
I see the Power 5 comments are still going strong...I feel like that needs to be given a rest, it's lazy and mind-numbingly boring to discuss.Open ControlsAlright guys need some dgw coverage this is my team
Begovic – Bunn
Ivanovic – Cole – Davies – Demel – Gunter
Mata – Bale – Michu – Fellaini – Puncheon
RVP – Suarez – Lambert
Its either I do Bale -> Walcott and A.Cole -> Gibbs/Reid
or
Fellaini -> Walcott and Ivanovic to Sagna/Mert/Reid?Open Controls
