The second instalment in our series of Members articles looking at Fantasy consistency sees defenders come under the microscope. Aiming to highlight those players who week-in, week-out offer solid returns, we’ve taken a larger sample size than the previous Goalkeepers article and analysed the top twelve in terms of points per game in 2010/11.

Although there are four Chelsea players here -in addition to two from Man City – the Blues defenders most definitely vary in average returns and consistency. Who’d have thought, after all, that Ashley Cole was the least reliable Fantasy pick of our featured quartet last season?

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    pretty happy with my starting team, I know there is a couple of risks in the team, with drogba and malouda but if chelsea kick start season in style i dont want to be stressing at trying to get players in, my hope is drogba scores a couple and looks like starting for a few GW's

    also i know my defence is a bit light but i have kompany and will bring in enrique if he goes to liverpool, always had cheap enough defence and its worked for me in the past so i might stick with it, anyway i'm thinking of going into GW1 with:

    Given ruddy
    Kompany Hughes Brown Delaet/gabbidon simpson
    malouda nani taarabt Nzogbia Moses
    Drogba RVP(if fit) DJ

      sinclair has city, arsenal and chelsea in 1st six so you could opt for taarabt instead, or go for taarabt over sess, his fixtures rotate well with sinclair

      6/10

      - Gomez will be second choice this season. Steer clear.
      - Bosingwa is too risky at that price but if you're looking to for a cunning punt... I suppose I could just about swallow that.
      - No idea who Hugha is? If you mean Hughes that's not bad but DEF seems a little expensive overall.
      - Maxi is a crap selection. All signs so far lead us to believe he will not start games.

    14 years, 9 months ago

    Morning folks.

    Having had a few more days to think about it, I'm still looking to have Suarez in my team.

    Has anyone seen any info/quotes or anything useful relating to him starting GW1 or otherwise?

    Thanks folks.

    I've seen people criticising people's RMTs for spending too much on defense when they have an expensive player (e.g. Baines, A.Cole), 1 mid range (e.g. Kompany, Lescott, Huth) 2 5m defenders and a cheapo...

    I've looked at possible ways of saving money but I really don't think it's worth saving 1 mil by bringing in defenders at clubs who don't keep many clean sheets. Even so, I can't seem to find 3 defender below 14m that rotate to allow 2 to have a good chance at a cleanie.

    Anyone care to prove me wrong?

        Baines, Hughes, Assou-Ekotto, (Warnock, Bosingwa)

            He has two home games in the first 3, and thereafter, in my opinion AND according to my ticker, has 4 easy matches ... and he slots nicely into the 5 ...

      Its an interesting point you raise. I too have moved cash from defence to mid and attack recently.

      One way to save a bit of cash but still have a great defence is to go for this strategy:

      Baines/cole - Kompany/Lescott - three 4 to 4.5m that rotate. Sunderland, Newcastle and Fulham are a good rotation so something like Bramble - Senderos - Simpson is a slight risk but fairly good combo.

      There are other combos from more learned people than me. Wolves can keep a clean sheet on their day...maybe look to see who rotates well with them.

      I still think there's value in Distin for 5.5m. Warnock could be a good one as well. So something like A Cole - Kompany - 4m - 4m and Distin\Warnock could be good and just play cole, kompany and distin\warnock most weeks and bring in your 4m as back up when injuries strike.

          really? If some of the pundits on here are correct looks like defenders are going to face a real uphill battle to get a share of bonus pts this year.

          I guess we will know more after a month or so...could be one of those low scoring seasons, but I just sense with so many rubbish teams in the prem now and so many teams packed with great assisters and scorers that it could be a high scoring season.

            Then, if EA are to be believed, those pundits are wrong. As to low/high scoring season, I have no opinion on that - but I would suggest that there will be a larger list of teams racking up more cleanies than last year, and about six who may let in a shedload ... amongst which I count Wigan ...

    Kompany, Young, Lescott,
    Duff, Nani, Malouda, Moses,
    Carrol, Bent, DJ

    Orr, De Laet, Dyer

    GW2 switch Kompany for whichever cheap Chels defender is getting the nod.

    I think im there so any reason why my team is not finished more than welcome.

      swap gervinho for someone like Holt/Dj campbell? then swap taraabt for a mid upto 10m like Downing/Adam. It might be a risk but then you have 1/1.5m to swap them for

      Nothing really concrete as yet... deserves to be playing up front as opposed to wide right! Most teams that have been linked to him have vehemently denied it! There were rumours about Stoke - as they collect taller players - but I think they already have options, so prob bull... would make a cracking option for a smaller team, trouble is he thinks he can play for anyone he likes.
