With the White Hart Lane encounter concluding gameweek 17, our members can now frolic in the figures that matter. The “Big Numbers” extracts the key stats, whilst going on to give our punt at the gameweek’s bonus point awards…

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

    Sometimes, knee jerking works. All those weeks ago, I thought 'I'm going to hold onto VdV. He'll come good, that'll show all those fickle amateurs. .6m drop later, and very few points, I'm wondering why I didn't pull the trigger. Now, I'm considering who to ship him out for (although I may continue and keep him seeing as I've come this far with him). Team is:

    Vorm Krul
    JEvans Verm Simpson NTaylor Wilkinson
    Drenthe VdV Bale Nani Silva
    RvP Sturridge Ba

    Quesion is: IF I do decide to get rid.. who should I aim to bring in? Thinking VdV > Larrson to reinvest in my defence, maybe Wilkinson > Smalling

    Any opinions?

    Worth taking a hit to sort out this defence? Already used my FT to bring in Nani.

    Jones - won't play this weekend but I got him for less than 6.0 so would be losing money
    N. Taylor - another doubt, not sure to what extent
    Simpson - away to Bolton, don't expect anything but could play if necessary
    Ward - I've played him once and he got me 10 points, but still there's much better options out there
    Baines - would be long gone by now if it weren't for the Jones injury.

    Wondering whether Ward > Jevans would be worth a hit given his low glass ceiling, or maybe instead taking a gamble and going for someone who could score big in Baines's place (maybe Huth against Villa's clueless corner defence). Could even go crazy and do that and Ward > Enrique or someone, but an 8 point hit for defenders, surely not?

          He'll still get plenty of chances at set pieces so i'm not to worried about what position he'll be playing as long as he's on the pitch, and considering Arsenal's injuries at the back i'm sure he wont be rested.

        Isn't that to do with the reset from last nights price rise, I don't fully understand but players always like that after a price rise.

    13 BPs if the predictions are correct. Last time out I got one point more than predicted, so here's hoping for a 14 tomorrow morning.

    I'm keeping Jones, seems he potentially could miss only one game so will wait a few days as he isn't going to drop tonight.

      If it's only one game then i'm sticking too but he could even play on Boxing Day against Wigan wearing a facemask you never these days.

    Team for Boxing day....

    Vorm
    Naylor(!)/Baines/Enrique
    Drenthe/Nani/Walters/Bale
    RVP/Rooney/Ba

    Westwood/Formica/MaCauley/Ward

    No Fts left .3 in the bank
    If Naylor is confirmed out would take a hit for Ward to a 4.9 mil defender from Spurs/Stoke/Evans??
