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.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Granville: from the last page

    On FPL this page http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/548/event-history/1/

    Hovering on a player shows the time the games kick off/kicked off and it says for City players aug 15th 7pm, and Given it says aug 12th 2pm.

    Not the worst bug, but seems an obvious error.

    Normally at this stage of the season, I've trashed my team and come up with 10 alternatives, am contemplating multiple subs or (most likely) have played a wildcard but... with such a damp squib of a start, combined with no BPs yet and no live scores etc... it doesn't seem as intense (and dare I say it... interesting?)

      It can be 3,2,1 3,3,1, 3,2,2, and 3,3,3 (hope I haven't missed any...) This season it uses an index to calculate the top players in a match (using data such as goals scored, tackles made, clearances, assists etc.) and there is variation as some players may be awarded the same number of bonus points as another. I think it's even possible for all players in the game to receive 3bps if they get the same index score.

    I have to be honest. My team looks in good shape on 38 points with 2 man citizens to play, in a game week that people appear to have struggled with.

    I am however, due to such a pants opening day, allocating myself a 2nd team. I will give the team 5 weeks to perform. Which ever of my 2 teams is excelling most will be the team I take through the season. New team then is as follows,

    One I wish I'd picked from the flipping start.

    Given / Begovic

    Smalling / Senderos / Kompany / Simpson / Jose Enrique

    Silva / Brunt / Larsson / Moses / A.Young

    Fletcher / Rooney / Suarez

    ....Now why couldnt I do that in the first place! How sick does that look.!

        I know mate, it's seriously an awful feeling to take such a risk, but it is as you say, with united's fixtures, and the shoddy defence to come with rio and vidic out respectively, it then turns into a risk well worth taking, and i'm putting nothing past torres at the moment, he should do very, very well over the next two gameweeks.

      Holt missed a good chance in a game Wigan probably shoulda won. Spirit carried us through. Taarabt was on a side that lost 4-0 at home to Bolton. He had one decent effort that whiskered around the post.

      I only watched MOTD, but Taarabt had little of the ball and was quickly closed down and lost possession in the middle of the park, and was subbed off around 70 minutes. He had one shot off target high and wide but I don't think he did much else of note.

      Not too sure on Holt but it seemed as though Wigan dominated for the most part so he wouldn't have had much time on the ball.

    Evening gents. Just back from 2 week holiday with wife and kids and I deliberately stayed away from FFS and FPL for most of it.
    Set my team with a borrowed iPhone on thursday (lucky for me).
    Sympathy to all you guys who couldn't log in to finalise your teams.
    Really glad I missed all the frustration and anger.
    I just have a couple of questions and I apologise if this is really repetitive ;
    (1) Will the live match updates to your team/ mini league be fixed for next week or do we have to live with a "end of GW update"? If it is the latter, then surely all the fun is gone.

    (2) Are the H2H fixtures not showing ?

    (3) Is 25 points with only Kompany and Silva left (plus baps to come) good/ bad/ average?

    At this stage I'm much more tempted to bring in players I had considered before the start of the season over players I hadn't had on the radar. It's like I'm happier reinforcing my own instincts than necessarily weighing the evidence presented.

    Those players who particularly tempt me right now are:

    Bosingwa
    Larsson
    Warnock
    Young
    and somewhat Cahill

      not buying the Cahill hype. Bolton hardly a clean sheet team and he'll likely not score one like that again. I like all the rest a lot though.

        I agree, those are the logical reasons why I didn't put him in, but the fact that I considered him and then he goes and does that makes me want to throw my logic out the window.

        Such is fantasy football.

        about Warnock, is he a firm starter. seams a good shout for this coming fixtures. Better than Enrique anyway...

          I think he has no real competition at leftback. Gets forward a lot too. Did very well out of the Metro scoring system which includes forward runs, tackles, etc.

          Had him at some point last year, but I think he went AWOL with injuries.

        Yep. Always been a decent player since Arsenal days. Saw him vs Everton at Highbury in the Carling Cup.

        Would have considered him more strongly, only I went for Sessegnon instead.

          I went Sess myself ... and his goal was a fine piece of tekkers. Boy's got more points in him, he does.

          Only reason I didn't get him was I didn't want to double up on Sunderland middies. After watching game 1, though, I'm toying with the idea ...

    38 now - Enrique off the bench for Rafael. Not a bad score with Silva and Kompany to go. There I was thinking prematurely that 36 was rubbish earlier.

    I'll take a lovely Silva hat-trick and a cleanie thanks citeh.

      Scores are low cause there's no bonus points (and comparatively few goals). BPs will be a big factor. Thinking Rooney and Suarez(c) should bag some. Hopefully some of my other players too!

      I'm on 36 with Kompany & Yaya to come.

    Is anyone considering Tim Cahill for next week? I haven't heard him mentioned - is he not nailed on to start (especially with Coleman, Arteta and Bilyaletdinov all out)?

    Fixtures QPR, bla, AST, with a dgw coming at some point.
