An upturn in form by Palace’s former Villa man and a certain enigmatic Bulgarian over at Craven Cottage come under the spotlight this evening. Tottenham’s improvement in front of goal and United’s faltering home form are also picked apart in our latest review of the statistics from the weekend and beyond:

Hello my dear friends,
I need your assitance here:
A: Chester over Dawson (Coleman and Jagielka IN) or B: Coleman, Jagielka, Chester and Dawson and play only with 2 forwards, I have Remy, Suarez and Agüero...Open Controlswhich forward would you sit?
Open ControlsI wanna play with Remy as my C, I think he will score a couple of goals, still in doubt to sit Agüero or Silva... what you reckon?
Open ControlsYou want to bench Suarez or Aguero and play Chester or Dawson? Are you nuts?
Open ControlsThe thing is that it is very probable that Suarez or Agüero won't score against Arsenal no Spurs, that is why my doubt...
Open Controls
I'd be leery of sitting either Suarez or Aguero, but Arsenal look "triffic" defensively, so perhaps Citeh won't score four. you could play three at the back just a thought. I think Spuds will concede don't you?
Open ControlsSo I guess I'm saying go with A.
Open ControlsSweet man! That is how I have my team since yesterday but then I got some doubts... No doubts anymore. Remy as C, a good differential?
Open Controlsdown to you man. Southampton only let one in Saturday last, Geordies are in fine form. could be a massive differential.
Open Controls
If United buy Baines in January, Why not play him on the wing in front of Evra? Certain to be the strongest lineup.
Open Controls1 FT, £1.7m in the bank.
Mig -> Howard or Save the FT?
Mignolet / Lewis
Gabbidon / Terry / Coleman / Mertesacker / Chester
Morrison / Özil / Ramsey / Hazard / Whittingham
Agüero / Suárez / LukakuOpen ControlsHey guys... What would u do with this team for the upcoming GW? Who to be benched?
Zabaleta, Demel, Coleman, Mertesacker, Chester
Hazard, Fer, Ravel, Coutinho,Ramsey
Suarez, Aguero, Lukaku
thanks for your feedbacks..Open ControlsBenching Ramsey over Lampard, Morrison, Paulinho and Barkley
Haters gon' hate.Open Controlsim honestly considering benching ramsey for januzaj.... who may not even start. i feel i need to take a risk here, city away is a decent bet to bench such a high owned player
Open Controlssame, but with redmond. can't help thinking it will end in tears if i do it though.
Open Controls
Will be bad start to the weekend when Rambo scores in the early kick off!
Open Controls
Szeczney
Terry, GJ, Coleman
Hazzard, Yaya, Ramsey, RavMo
Rooney, Aguero, Suarez
Would you hold the transfer this week, and if so who would you get in for the next gw.
Cheers.Open ControlsJon Obi Mikel has got more points this season than Juan Mata.
Open Controlstriffic innit?
Open Controls
Nasri was not even in bench today. is he injured or ok for this gw pl?
Open ControlsMight be something to do with return of silva
Open Controls
A little number to lighten the mood, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5b_V68mQ9k
Open ControlsIt's those restless hearts that never mend
Open Controlsthis
Open Controls
Gerrard to silva for a hit? Or just play kasami...
Open ControlsLooks like Suarez will just miss out on going up tonight. All those wasted transfers tomorrow.
Open ControlsSorry to keep asking this but any updates on Schurrle's injury? Is he likely to start at the weekend?
Open Controlsfirst person i have seen who actually owns schurrle.
Open ControlsHe is in my draft league squad. Could be a lovely differential if he plays.
Open ControlsMe and 7 mates picked an initial squad of 18 players. We play each other on a week by week basis, selecting 11 starters and no subs. Works like a mini league. Cash prizes for the winner and runner up.
Open ControlsOh okay thanks, so you run it yourselves. And can you change those 18 players?
Open ControlsYou can. The rules are you can make one trade with another team a week and you can trade for one free agent a week. Double gameweeks mean two trades.
Open ControlsThis still doesnt help answer my question about Schurrle though!
Open ControlsAnd to answer your question, no there hasn't been much more news from what we already know, that he came off with a calf injury vs Stoke. Wait for tommorrow's lineups vs Steaua and see what happens from there.
Open ControlsThe big man said on Twitter yesterday that he had a 'good session' and was now relaxing which is a positive. Hope he starts as Im short of mids.
Open Controls
The idea of a draft league is no repeated players, but you can swap your players for unattached players or make transfers with a rival.
Ie only one person can own Suarez,
And if say no-one owns Fer you could drop a midfielder into the player pool and pick him up instead.Open Controls
Better pair for this weekend
A. Howard/Nasri
B. Krul/SilvaOpen ControlsB, cos city played well tonight and nasri wasn't even on the bench. Ideally I would do Howard/silva
Open Controls
Anyone doubling up on Everton (GK+DEF)?
Not sure whether I should get rid of Boruc now and upgrade 1.0 to Howard.Open ControlsEvening guys.
How safe are Nasri's minutes this week and going forward?
Worth 4 points to do a straight Nasri -> Hazard?Open ControlsI've got Howard(this week for MIGs)and distin(from gw1). I've seen ppl getting 3 Everton at the back...
Open ControlsA bit risky having 3 - all it takes is one goal, one slight mistake, one moment of magic (Fulham's goals against Palace), one bad penalty decision.
I would never triple a defence, but doubling over good fixtures is definitely worth itOpen ControlsI don't recommend it but the guy who did was ranked top 4k
Open Controls
What's the thinking on Januz? He looks good at times and involved plus ManU with good fixtures... stick or twist? Redmond or Fer in my thinking.
thanksOpen ControlsWill not start games regularly.
Open Controls
Good morning DZers. 😀
Howard
Terry,Glen Johnson,Burner
Hazard,Oscar,Sessegnon,Ravel
Lukaku,Suarez,Aguero
4m,Ramsey,Clyne,Faye
0 FT and 1.3m in the bank.
A. Starting eleven and bench in order?
B. GJ>Jagielka worth a hit? GJ has Spurs,City,Chelsea in the next four.
Appreciate your thoughts.Open ControlsI would be inclined not to take the hit. You already have Howard, and it's far from a guarantee that Everton will keep Fulham out (although the way it's being talked about, it's apparently a certainty)
You can always play Clyne (if fit) or 3 at the back for the tough Liverpool games.Open ControlsCheers Arbroath.
Was thinking more long term with the Jagielka move. He tends to rack up baps when Everton do get a CS. I will have to give some more thought into it.Open Controls
Not another one with 3 Everton at the back....don't do it
Open ControlsErr..it'll be 2 Everton at the back if I get Jagielka.
Open Controls
My Team is
McGregor
G.Johnson Mertesacker Coleman
Fer Shelvey Hazard Ramsey
Aguero Lukaku(c) Suarez
Bench: Krul Chester Baker Nasri
Who should I bench and captain and please rate my team in general, any and all suggestions are welcomeOpen ControlsThe ways Suarez, Rooney and Aguero are rising, it will be very difficult for someone planning to get one of them in January WC unless they have a high Team Value
Open ControlsDont really understand the big rush to sell Mingolet , especially this close to wildcard time.
Clean sheets are difficult to predict , away to a goal shy Tottenham followed by a home tie with Cardiff in theory are not bad fixtures.
Plus everyone lumping on Howard who only one card off a suspension.
Yes Everton have kept a few cleanies on the trot , but as they say in the stockmarket - Past returns may not continue into the futureOpen ControlsMigs value was dropping and some people like me were trying to have a good Team Value for the Jan WC
Open ControlsExactly my opinion.
I am a Migs owner, and has been frustrating over the last few weeks. However, Everton are not by any means guaranteed a CS - one mistake, bad decision or moment of magic and that's it gone.
Plus, for GK's, clean sheets aren't as important as for defenders, because save points are so good. Mignolet got 5 points despite letting in 3 goals against Everton.Open ControlsYes , harder the opponents tighter pool will play , and more chance of save points and penalty saves.
Open Controls
The other factor is LIverpool are not exactly getting over run particularly at home.
Open ControlsNorwich (H), West Ham (H) and C Palace (H) were also good fixtures but Liverpool did a great job in conceding goals there as well. Not only is Migs going to drop in value but he also has terrible fixtures coming up if you have no 2nd rotating GK.
I've currently kept him because it would take a 4 point hit to remove him (as my priority is to sub out Gerrard) but after Cardiff game I think I am ditching for either Howard or Lloris until the WC. In the meantime, Howard will rise by another 0.2/0.3 and Migs will probably go down to 5.4Open ControlsSuch a rise will only happen if Howard gets returns, remember Boruc? A few cs and Migs will become all the rage.
Open Controls
had a free transfer.. not much else to do.. so why not! i think howard will do me alot better than migs unfortunately with pools fixtures.. (im a liverpool supporter also just so you know)
Everton have great fixtures. dont really understand why you dont understand 😛Open Controls
Who is the player you are most worried about not owning this week?
For me its Lukaku.Open ControlsDJ Campbell has just released a statement. "I'm a 100% innocent and hope to play in this Saturdays 2-2 draw against Milwall".
Open ControlsHi everyone. What does do people think of paulinho? Would chico and sees to distinct and paulinho be a decent move?
ThanksOpen ControlsI quite likes Paulinho and owned at start of season, but I realised he played further back, and Spurs stopped scoring goals.
Seems to be getting further forward now, and for 6.7M? he might be worth a shoutOpen ControlsI would do that move if you have 2FT
Open ControlsYes I have two freebies so I think they are my moves. So bored with sess. Although would remy to lukaku be another good move?
Open ControlsTough to say. I also own Sess, and while frustrating, he did have chances at the weekend. He definitely isn't guaranteed to start anyway.
Lukaku's fixtures are slightly better, but Remy's aren't badOpen Controls
0FT & £0.2 in a shoebox....
Howard (Gazzinga)
Zabaleta - Jagielka - Chester (Dawson,Clyne)
Yaya - Ozil - Ramsey - Shelvey (Mutch)
Aguero - Lukaku - Suarez
Do I NEED Hazard for a hit (or 2)? Who should leave first, Zabs,Dawson or Clyne?Open Controlsyou dont NEED hazard. it could work though but for who? yaya or ozil?
out of the 3 defenders Dawson or clyne should leave first.. Dont know why zab should leave though to be honest.. especially with kompany returning and also with the way he played this morning and changed the game in my opinion... not to mention richards getting injured (zabs only competition for a spot in the starting 11!Open ControlsCheers Hazzy.
Good point about Zabs. Can't do Yaya>Hazard as straight trade so yeah it would have to be Ozil. my rivals have him and I don't but that worked out for me last week...
Dawson/Clyne out for a hit?Open Controlsnah not for a hit because they are only on your bench anyway this week! so they arent really a problem for this gameweek alone. i think get hazard in for ozil and ditch one of the defenders next gameweek. if another pressing matter comes then just take a hit then, but no point this gw
Open Controlsinfact dont do anything! just realised youve used your free transfer. your team is fine! good luck
Open ControlsThanks Hazzy.
I was gonna do Ozil>Hazard as my free this week but Ozil got me more points than Hazard did for my ML rivals, so I did Migs>Howard instead. I will see how Ozil does this week.....Open Controls
No on Haz - not worth ditching yaya or ozil to him for a hit. Get rid of Dawson.
Open ControlsCheers Walsh.
Think I'll hold off. Lots of teams will Hazard (C) this week so it could benefit me...
Dawson>? for a hit?Open Controls
Boruc should drop this week - then I can't make 0.2 off him.
Is it worth using a FT to trade him to Howard in the next 10 mins?Open ControlsHi Guys would really appreciate some help.
2 FTs and £0.2 in bank.
Vorm (Tremmel)
Terry, GJ, Burner (Clyne & Baker)
Ozil, Sess, Pablo Hernandez Nasri (Januzaj)
Aguero Suarez Lukaku (c)
I'm willing to make 3 changes and take the -4. I'm a little wary in not having Hazard this week. Silva also seems a popular choice. Any recommendations?...Open Controls
10 years, 9 months ago
Which cpl def would you choose and why?
- ward 4m....hardly attacking potential, minimal baps but cheapest
- gabbidon 4.2....extra 0.2 for baps
- delaney 4.4m....seems to have decent goal threat and pulis likes set pieces
