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:

    Really starting to doubt the nasri captaincy now, might just go with VDV? Tevez let me down last time but think he may be the safest option..What worries me is Nasri played really well against brum but got no bps but tevez missed a pen and missed numerous chances but still got bps.. So i could easily end up with nothing from nasri but may get at least bps from tevez

    Thoughts??

      Hangeland plays for Fulham though.

      Both probably just as likely to keep a CS this week.

          Having had to unfortunately sit through an incredible amount of Liverpool matches this season i've seen Skrtel get on the end of alot of set pieces.
          Yes Hangeland has a few goals to his name this season but their record was pretty similar last season.

                home to wolves would be a dream start for any debutant, mancini would/should/does know that. plus he is ready to play. (suppose torres is in his best form and gets transferred to a new team, do you think he would start on the bench? add to the fact that its a home game to crap oponents. this is a similar situation) im pretty confident he will start

    i was going to save my wildcard for the last possible moment, i really was. then my bloody finger got the better of me. comments welcome. this is what has happened:

    Hart (Stockdale)
    Bosingwa, Rafael, Djourou (Bardsley, Simpson)
    Fabregas (C), Nani, VDV, Brunt, Adam,
    Tevez, RVP (Carroll)

    I think I like it, but I know worries about Bosingwa rotation is going to do my head in... Plan is to swap RVP to Berbatov next week, and perhaps take a hit shifting Brunt to Zog for the DGW.

    New projections have Dzeko starting only 9 times and Kolarov not getting many games. If only Mancini had some f*cking consistency in his selections!

      I had nasri all week but bottled it and went tevez, tevez should at least get a few bps, thats what im basing my decision on anyway..

        I think Nani/VDV/Nasri are safe for maybe 7 or 8 points but going for double figures probably Torres, Tevez, RVP.

      tevez, nasri not as effective when fabregas in team, though still a good shout

    If I have Cesc and Nasri, is captaining Tevez because I already have 2 Arsenal players bad reasoning?

      captaining tevez, when you know dzeko is going to share the cake, is bad reasoning

      Probably. Bottom line is you should captain the player you think will score the most points.

      Yeah.. I think that FFS should do a "Where are they now" at the end of this season on all the so called "big things" this season.

      It would be quite amusing

      There was someone who posted here in an earlier thread laying out the details of the Winter Break in Germany, which still goes on so normally he wouldn't have been ready to play any games yet. He didn't say for sure he wouldn't play but warned caution.

      On the other hand he can't play in the cup replay, so maybe at least he'll come on as a sub and wave hello to the crowd.

        When I say someone I mean someone who's been living in Germany for 4 years and follows the football there. I can't find the post now sorry.
