This evening’s Members article brings with it a new approach. With winter wildcards being flourished at a furious pace, we’ve put together a new article template to run the rule over a couple of very topical transfer targets: Stephane Sessegnon and Jonathan Walters.

Both players have received heavy investment ahead of the weekend. Sessegnon is facing a couple of enticing home clashes with Swansea and Norwich, while Walters, with four home fixtures in the next six Gameweeks (WBA, SUN, SWA, NOR), is also racking up the transfers on the back of a home average 6.8 points per game in Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

In terms of Fantasy output, there is very little between them. Walters is the pricier, by 6.7 to 6.6, and has returned a single point more than Sessegnon, by 95 to 94. The only real difference is in ownership, with the Stoke man currently selected by 16% of Fantasy managers compared to Sessegnon’s 13%. The latter has attracted the most suitors of late, though, rising by 0.4 since the end of gameweek 19.

Using both the Opta stats and our very own ICT Index available to our Members, we examine their last few gameweeks, offering a direct comparison between the two players’ performances.

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

        If fiso is accurate (which it has been) he won't fall tonight. Players that are red flagged need around 250% to drop. The flag should come off on Saturday once the deadline has passed which will reset his transfers to zero. He might drop tomorrow but will need around 30,000 transfers out. Could happen but hard to say until tomorrow.

        Don't see any value in Gerrard at the moment, Liverpool have had poor attacking returns.

    No Zamora in the Captain's Poll. Mmm...tis an omen..perhaps. Or it's not. Maybe I'm just looking for an excuse to be silly. Not that I'd normally need an excuse.

      With Dempsey expensive and taking up a MF slot whoch could go to Silva, Bale, Valencia, Sess, Walters etc. Zamora is real possibility.

      Maybe I lack foresight but apart from Morison, Fletcher, RVP, Roo, Aguero there's nothing taking my fancy.

      Wouldn't captain him mind. "Punt on your team - not your captain"

    In my WC team, I'm going to have Kompany in. Is it worth bringing him in for Enrique during my WC, or wait til next week and use a FT to bring in him? Other defence is: Santon, Riise, Senderos, Cahill

    Dear Mr Ryan Taylor,

    I cannot afford you, nor can I buy you with my Krul and Simpson combo and Djemba Djemba Ba soon returning like a lost soldier.

    So please, please stop accumulating points!

    Thank you.
