Full data from all the Gameweek matches has been poured into our Members Area. Following the update, not only can our Members examine every statistical facet of the matches played so far, they can also get the first view of our ICT Scout Index with this season’s data.

Members will find the Top 10 performers for Influence, Creativity and Threat on their dashboards, along with the Top ICT Index performers – already, we’ve got some intriguing data to digest, offering some early clues on where the Fantasy Premier League Bonus is likely to be heading. Full ICT data can be viewed by accessing the Player Stats > Fantasy Index > All Players table.

We will be serving up several regular articles based on the ICT Index but Members can read on below for our first initial foray into the numbers.

As a sidenote, Membership sign-ups are still available with our pre-season early bird offer of £12.50 coming to an end on Monday night. Memberships for the 2011/12 season will then increase to £15.

    Could we collate all the features missing from the old FPL site that make this a far worse experience.

    1) slow loading each page
    2) no dream team
    3) no highest score of the week
    4) hyperlinks from the games which link nowhere
    5) no fantasy stats menu
    6) gameweek points not viewable by default
    7) extra click to view other team scores
    8 ) you can view other teams transfers
    9) you can view whether other team has played wildcard (this is actually OK)
    10) have to page down just to view your team
    11) Captains(c) and Vice Captains(v) icons bugged, doesn't always show V
    11) H2H fixtures not viewable
    12) The forum messages are light grey on lighter grey, and have no pages.
    13) no drop down option to look at prices rises, falls
    14) no live updating of league tables

      Basically all they had to do was take last seasons game and use the vice captaincy system. Maybe change the BP's as well, sometimes I quite liked the random effect but it is better if it is quantifiable.

      Not sure if it's taken out, or it will be in after the bonuses are added, but I liked that you could see why your players got the points.

      Like Paul Robinson for example:

      Played 90mins - 2pts.
      Penalty Save - 5pts.
      2 goals conceded - -1pt.

      =6pts.

      Earlier Gervinho scored both -1 for YC and -3 for RC (-2 for the week). A couple of hours ago they removed the YC penalty so it's now correctly at -1. Don't know if this has been fixed all round or whether there are more fun scoring quirks we are yet to discover.

    rio our for 6 weeks is a puzzler.
    firstly will jones, evans or smalling come in?
    secondly is this cut-price utd defender opportunity worth it with their upcoming fixtures?

      Since Rafael is out for 10 weeks I think Smalling will stay at RB and therefore Jones will go play CB with Vidic / Evans if Vidic is out.

      Evans seems the first choice sub. I think he prefers Smalling at RB at the moment. Jones is an absolute boss but I think he relies on Evans's experience and is happy to back him.

      I'd also say at 4.5 Evans is the only one who'd be worth the gamble. Unproven defence, unproven keeper, don't see many clean sheets but at 4.5 for a United starter it's hard to say it isn't worth a go. Wouldn't go near a 5.5 though, so many better options at that price.

      agreed AB RVP was dire. He had at least two great chances on his right that he messed up. He did not look like his head/heart was in it tbh.

      I'd say he is seriously wondering wtf he is doing there when all the big names are leaving for pastures new.

      I mean if you were him why would you bother? You get paid regardless and they have no chance of winning a league with the squad they have.

        i trust it was more frustration with himself as much as the team and the situation, also possibly slightly inhibited still by the stamp on his ankle last week. comes across as quite a mature guy these days to me, someone who if anything will step up in his role as captain, not get disillusioned by departures around him.

          Maybe AB hopefully you are right for the arsenal fans at least but I have a sneaky feeling this could be a case of a lost year for arsenal where nothing good or really bad happens. They should still have enough with a pretty solid looking first team to hold onto their top 4 spot but they have a real battle with liverpool for it.

          RVP has been a fantasy fav of mine for the last three years but I know from painful experience the mental state of players can seriously effect their output making once great players look only avg at best. Witness Torres and Rooney last season.

          Yup, Drogba is a quality striker and Spurs just don't have that at the moment. I'm sure Chelsea are going to get Modric at the last minute, Levy said the same about Berbatov and he still came to us. Drogba could sweeten the deal but I don't see why Chelsea would want to get rid of him even if he isn't signing a new contract. Would leave them light up front

                Chels should look at a Sneijder/Drogs trade. Better all around for everyone. And 34 million is nothing for a team that spent 50 million on a striker who doesn't score.

                    True, although Sturridge seems all right with the service 😀

                    What is it now, though? 20 games and 1 goal?

                    My god, if his name wasn't Torres everyone in the civilized world would be choking on their own tongue's they'd be laughing so hard.

                    Torres may not be a total loss*, but he doesn't seem to fit in with Chels style, at all.

                    *Or he could be. Stats point to 'loss'.

                    If he hits 10 goals in GW 5, he'll be 11 goals in 24 games. Pretty sh!te for 50 mil.

                    The Chelsea side was always designed to have a big battering ram up front with Lampard blasting in loose balls via defenders arses.

                    It's not his fault Chelsea won't re-vamp their squad to accommodate him better.

          Suarez scored. And also he created the penalty that he missed so surely some BPs will do

    Obviously the gameweek isn't over yet but thinking no transfers for the next. Nothing really stands out. had previously planned to get Torres/Drogba or Malouda in but not so sure now. I'm sure they'll do better against WBA but it's risky trying to guess who's going to play.

      I've Malouda and I suppose I should stick with him but I'd say Torres is the player to get IMO, I think he looked sharp and will soon get goals, I think AVB will play him and Drogba Sturridge Anelka & Kalouda will rotate around him.

    The Shawcross on Torres was outside of the box so no penalty, Shawcross should have been sent off though. The one with Woodgate he seemed to just kick the ground and then fall over. Lampard should have probably had a pen, looked like he was already going over early but was still a foul by the Stoke guy

      Sorry I couldn't access the site when I tried to post my reply for the last minutes.

      I agree that Anderson was decent on the ball and I was quite clear about it. I just think he's close to awful defensively and disagree that WBA's main threat came from the flanks.

      I basically think Anderson needs to be in a three man central midfield to be any good because he's not good enough defensively to be a DM and not good enough offensively to be an AM, and if you play him with another box to box style player like Cleverley you get overrun. Imagine what a better central midfield and strikers would do to them.

        Agree on Anderson needing 3 in midfield, never overly convinced by him in a 4-4-2. Carrick should come in for Welbeck for the next two, certainly against Arsenal.

        United's midfield looks quite lightweight without Fletcher.

        I was never his biggest fan, but he's pretty important to them considering they have no one else who plays that role.
