There are three exciting developments concerning our Members Area today. Firstly, and most significantly we’ve slashed the price of Membership for the rest of the season to just £10.

You can now sign up and get the full Members Ticker, the customisable and feature-filled Next Six Ticker plus of course access to our sortable tables of OPTA player and team performance statistics. All that for a tenner; plus there’s more to come with news of updated Player Projections for the FPL game…

The second piece of news however concerns the Opta stats. We are now out of Beta for Phase Two of the Members area which means that, in addition to cumulative stats over the season, you can now view statistics for players and teams by the Gameweek. Members can use filters to analyse performance over the current and last Gameweek and the last two, four and six Gameweeks. Using the Advanced Filters you can also set up your own ranges and choose to view averages by Games Played, rather than absolute data.

The final development, as promised, concerns the Player Projections – we’ve been working to update these in time for the Gameweek 22 Fantasy Premier League Wildcards and I’m please to say that these have now been updated.

What are Player Projections?
These are our predictions for all the vital FPL stats for every player in the game – predicted until the end of the season. Basically they allow you to view a predicted return for players and we’ve included a field that shows points gained from Gameweek 22 to the end of the season to cater for your Wildcard needs.

How were they put together?
We built these new Projections from scratch rather than work with the existing data. The sortable tables are based on FPL performance so far with modifiers applied for the difficulty of their remaining fixtures and their current form. We’ve also used the OPTA data to apply further modifiers based on the analysis of players performance that these stats allow.

How do I use the Projections?
Basically if you’re playing your Wildcard, these tables can be used to view a projected return for goals, assists, clean sheets, FPL Bonus and of course, FPL total points for all the top players. We’ve included sortable tables of the top 25 Keepers, 100 Defenders, 100 Midfielders and 50 Strikers.

Will they be updated?
These projections have been built specifically with the Gameweek 22 Wildcard in mind. They won’t be updated each week but may well get a refresh later in the season, prior to the final run-in. We will keep you posted on that.

There are doubtless some minor bugs to fix in the data but I thought it would be great to roll these out to Members now, prior to the Gameweek 23 deadline. The tables will be tweaked over the next few days then I’m sure.

So, all this is now available to Members, while Non-Members can now sign up to get access for just £10 via Paypal or via a cheque or Postal Order to the address below:

      i would keep coleman for the season now.

      djourou is a ticking clock till he's benched and arsenal's def only average generally anyway

      rafael will be ok for home games but not away

      skirtel>no

      evatt and blackpool have kept 5 clean sheets away, 0 at home, his double gameweeks quite cool tho

      i'm gonna drop kolorov if he doesn't play, if he does, don't drop him at all

    still can't make my mind for one of these to be benched..

    nani, vdv, fabs, adam, y.toure
    tevez, torres, berbs

    > top of my mind.. one of nani or berbs, probably berbs as SAF may play safe approach away to spurs
    > y.toure as many attacking players now and his score in last five were just 5,2,3,3,3
    > torres as he is playing for poor form Liverpool and being scout picks 😛

    any ideas ??

      I know people on here have been advocating having Fabs and Nasri but I don't think its a wise idea, especially with several good mids around with DGW's next week.

      Guys like Brunt, N'Zogbia and Dempsey look like much better horses to back than Malouda over the next few weeks. Not sure Nasri, in 2 games and with Fabs and Van Persie to share points with, will outscore any of those players especially the 2 guys with the DGW next week.

      That's the reason why I did Nasri to N'Zog this week. Fabs is enough Arsenal cover for me for now.

      The problem with Evatt is that all Blackpool's clean sheets are away from home. I wouldn't trust him personally. Djourou is a rotation risk, Skrtel is expensive in a team which you can't trust, Rafael is possibly a rotation risk but is the best of the five you name I think. Coleman is also worth having (from next week) given the fixtures.

    After a lot of oohing and aahing, have decided to leave my team be for this gameweek. I think I can just about put out a decent team, even if Konchesky & Kolarov get dropped. But hopefully both wont happen.

    Anyway, question - if Arsenal beat Ipswich, do they lose their DGW on 27?
