Gameweek 19 is brought to a close by the extraordinary events at the Stadium of Light and, with less than twenty four hours before the next deadline is upon us, our members don’t have long to digest the statistics and peruse our speculative thoughts on the Fantasy Premier League bonus…

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

        Not in my opinion, unless those targets are part of your long term plan.

        It comes down to whether or not you fancy Everton to keep a clean sheet, as they'd have to keep at least one just to recover the 4 point hit.

        (no cs) 4pts (-2pts)
        (one cs) 8pts (+2 pts)
        (two cs) 12 (+6 pts)

        So as you can see, you'd need at least one cs for a small gain and that's not taking into account deductions for any goals conceded or bookings.

      R Taylor --> Baines & Nani --> Modric if you can afford that?

    Worth buying Rodwell? Already have Drenthe, BAE, Bale and Adebayor for the DGW. Thinking about using the WC soon after, and both Everton and Tottenham have nice fixtures the week after. But then again, a player with a normal GW could easily outscore both Drenthe and Rodwell in their DGW?
    The reason I only can afford Rodwell is because I'm using one of my two free tranfers to switch Wilkinson to BAE, so then Ramsey needs to go....
    Please help me out.

    I only have two guaranteed starting defenders with Wilko, Vermaelen and Smalling all out or doubtful. Is it worth me taking an eight point hit to do?

    Verm to Baines
    Smalling to Walker
    Walcott to Osman.

    I have just done Walters > Donovan ... on a DGW punt!

    But, I had a thought after I'd hit the transfer button...

    Do the auto transfers get made after ALL the games have been completed, ie on after 11 Jan,
