Gameweek 25 is only just finished but there’s another one round the corner already. Here’s our regular analysis of the Gameweek OPTA stats, offering Members a closer look at some of the most impressive performers in those midweek matches just gone by…
How does this WC team look?
Foster Al-habsi
Kolorov Bardsley Vidic Djourou Eardly
Nani Ethers VDV Adam Thomas
Drogba Odem RVP
Are there any improvements? Putting players in for GW27 mainlyOpen ControlsI would change your keepr combo, maybe Begovic in for al-habsi because Foster doesn't have a game in week 28 and al-habsi's got Man U.
Open Controls
Are there any players people have not transfered out since GW1? my only one is Foster
Open ControlsHaving one of those inspirational (stupid) moments. Considering capt N'Zog home to Blackburn! 🙂 I know.......
Open ControlsGuys.
Me, Si and Atilla The Bum have been blogging on our team of the year so far. Join the debate please!
http://elmasqueunblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/daily-discussion-who-would-be-in-your.htmlOpen ControlsIs that your blog? If so, you should do something like most under rated team, good way to get chats going
Open Controlsinteresting discussion, most team of the year line-ups are far too unbalanced, so i agree you need a tiote kind of player in the midfield mix and not all the soft slick eye catching players everywhere

what was the minor recalculation that took place about 12.45pm today ,anyone know? ive gone up 28 places.
Open ControlsHart, Al Habsi
Huth, Coleman, Vidic, Djourou, Hughes
Dempsey, Adam, Nani, VDV, Nasri
Tevez, Berba, Odem (0.9 in bank)
For DGW 27 i was going to do Dempesey----> Nolan/Bentley or...? and Tevez--->RVP.
I have 2 free transfers this week, i wasnt going to use one but may as well get rid of nasri for someone seeing as Odem possible injury. What would be my best midfield option for this GW and DGW people?Open ControlsThanks for advice mate. No DGW for Young though only problem. Would prefer a DGW player for next 2/3 weeks. Villa got gd fixtures so may get him in after DGW27. Any other options...
Open Controls
Does anyone know why malouda didnt start last gw ?
Open ControlsOn sunday Chelsea are probably going to go to a 4-4-2 which means that he should start at left mid ahead of kalou. Last GW he was rested.
Open Controls
so I wasn't online here yesterday and I'm sure I must have missed all the jubilation of Kolarov finally doing something for some of us silly enough to still stick with him....so anywaya whats the general verdict stick with him or ditch after using wildcard???
Open ControlsI love Kolarov, we love Kolarov, everyone loves Kolarov...oooo ooo Kolarov.
I love Kolarov, we love Kolarov, everyone loves Kolarov...oooo ooo Kolarov.
I love Kolarov, we love Kolarov, everyone loves Kolarov...oooo ooo Kolarov.
I love Kolarov, we love Kolarov, everyone loves Kolarov...oooo ooo Kolarov.
He did alright didn't he? 🙂Open ControlsWe just need a CS from him now....
That would be the icing on the cake...Open ControlsWBA, FUL, WIG in his next four. Gotta be a couple of cleanies in there surely?
Open Controls
For once. He will probably get dropped again in a couple of weeks - massive rotation risk and not worth it IMO. Notice how many goals City have leaked when he plays 90mins!
Open ControlsHe'll need to score or assist a-plenty though cos City are leaking goals at the moment.
Open Controls
People only moan because he got taken off before 60 minutes that one time. It's not just him in the Man City defence that has been poor the last few games, it's the whole City defence. If you want a City Defender, Kolarov is the man.
Open ControlsI'm sticking until he gets dropped, he nearly won the game for City with his second free kick. Whiskers away. For the price he is great value, once he gets the rub of the green, its going to be pissing points from that man. And with only 1.5% ownership last time I looked.
Open Controls
yeah i also got a feeling to stick with him cause if its not him i won't have any city defence coverage after wildcard....as i surely won't get hart and i'm not gonna pay extra bucks for kolo toure even if he's a sure starter...FYI kolarov just about saved my gameweek....
Open Controls2.3 pts/game is enough for me to stay away
Open Controls
What the duck is going on with Suarez's ears?! Just odd.
Open ControlsSo Szczesny seems a good buy on the wc then? Thinking of saying bye to Foster who I've had since the start.
Open ControlsRubbish...keep your three Arsenal spots for players who can score/assist. Foster will keep performing.
Open ControlsWalcott and I still think Djourou is a good consideration.
Open Controls
Why get rid now when he's got a tasty dgw coming up?
Open ControlsI've got Szczerrs rotating with Howard - works pretty nice for a good while
Open Controls
Is the arse vs spurs game definitely going to slot into GW28 if they win in the cup? Or is this just speculation?
Open Controlshow does this sound?
dempsey for ferguson (to free up cash)
dj campbell for suarez
4 point hit
current team is
hart, stockdale
huth, rafael, coleman, johnson r, djourou
fabregas, dempsey, adam, vdv, nani
tevez, van persie, dj campbellOpen ControlsAnyone doing Nasri' quiz on twitter, what answers did you get?!
Open ControlsI really doubt i will get at least 25 pnts this game week.
But to make my team decent enough, i might go for 8 pnts hit...
anyone care to give me their opinion ?Open ControlsI do not see a need to take a pt hit for your team unless its linked wrong LOL
Open Controls
Man utd should sign al habsi
Open ControlsNah. Manuel Neuer, I reckon. De Gea looks good, too, but maybe a bit young for a keeper.
Open ControlsTo be honest im aware that neuer is meant to be good but havent witnessed it first hand so i couldnt say. Ive seen de gea a couple of times and been impressed but like you i think id rule him out on age grounds. So based on keepers that ive seen al habsi is far and away the best.
Open Controlsal habsi flatters to decieve.
He's obviously going to look good playing for teams like wigan isn't he, when he has to make countless saves because the defence is poor.
He's just a foster mk II
Wouldn't cut it at Man unitedOpen ControlsI actually cant understand your logic. Al habsi has made several outstanding stops this season. Doesnt matter who he is playing for he has demonstrated an ability to make excellent saves.
Open ControlsWith regards to foster mkII. Its totally different yes foster makes lots of saves but they are rather routine saves. Al habsi has made those same routine saves and several brilliant ones. Im not backing al habsi based on his save points on FPL lol
Open Controls
Transfer plan for the next few weeks. Just thinking out loud, let me know your thoughts.
Gw 26: NO TRANSFERS
Gw 27: Hart to Begovic,Dempsey to Bentley/Gardner(Which one?) and Dj to Suarez. 4 point hit.
Gw 28: Evatt to Kelly
Thoughts?Open ControlsEvatt to Kelly is a must, obviously, and I think the Begovic move is great. Gardner is on penalties, so I would think he is the obvious Dempsey replacement.
However, with a bevy of options at striker, I cant say I understand wanting Suarez. Get some money and go for Berbs or take Odemwingie (great fixtures) and use THAT leftover money to upgrade Gradner to any of the many options around the 6.0 range.Open Controls
Anyone care to look at my team for GW 27?
Robinson, Foster
Kelly, Rafael, Huth, Coleman, Djourou
Van der Vaart, Nolan, Fabregas(c), Adam, Nani
Tevez, Van Persie, SuarezOpen ControlsThis I presume is WC for GW26 and thus no change GW27 for 2 freebies GW28?
Seems ok.Open Controlsvery similar to mine, is that after transfers?
AlHabsi - Begovic
Kelly, Rafael, Walker, Coleman, Djourou
Vdv, Y Toure, Walcott, Adam, Nani
Tevez, Berba, Torres
Have a few options and 2 free's this week.
was thinking either
Torres, Walcott, rafael > Vpersie, Fabs, Odem/vela
or
Torres, Rafael > Vidic, VpersieOpen ControlsYes its currently without Nolan and suarez so I'll be bringing them in for GW 27

ideas so far include luque, john inman, mido, mutu and Humberto suazo...

very confused about capt
Come on someone please help !!!Open ControlsI’ve still got Carroll mainly due to the huge price hit I will take to get rid. Question is I am going to wild card this GW should I finally get shot bought him back when he was £5.0m. I would lose £500k wondering whether just to take the pain.
Simply because have enough players to get rid of for GW28? Thoughts..Open ControlsBasically Get rid and take the financial pain or leave?
Open ControlsIn a similar predicament. Just swithering which cheapo to bring in for him so that I leave enough to get him back when he's fit. Currently leaning towards Keane but maybe DJ with his dgw.
Open Controls
Get rid of him. Apparently he is weeks away from playing. Team value is there to be spent, no use hoarding it if the result is you only have a 14 man squad to pick from.
Open Controls
Love everyone licking the trails of shit from Kolarov's arse now he's scored. PATHETIC
Open Controls:-D, says the person who puts a "x" after his ode to Gary Neville. I don't have Kolorov anymore by the way
Open Controls? The x means love
Open ControlsOnly one x after an ode to Gary Neville? You need to take a leaf out of Paul Scholes' book:
