Super Sunday left Sky Sports salivating after both Manchester clubs completed the double over their north London counterparts to end the gameweek. With the FA Cup next weekend, we’ve a nine day wait until the next lot of fixtures but, for just now, it’s time to analyse the key statistics from our Members area and make a stab at the destination of the Fantasy Premier League bonus points…

    Any opinions on Walters, Fletcher and Shawcross out for Dempsey, Keane and Shotton for a 8 point hit? Could also do RTaylor out for a cheaper defender.

    Level with my cup opponents at the mo - who will prevail after the BAPS?

    Me: Zamora, Mata, Sturridge(C)
    Him: RVP, Silva, Dzeko, Barton

    Not expecting many BPs from these, so essentially I'm asking whether there's a chance that Zamora will get 2 BP and my opponent's team will only get 1.

      Precisely the reason why I went against him. I heard playing Sorenson was to get him to sign the new contract. I haven't see the goals, but if they were glaring mistakes, he will be up for the chop.

      He did the same for Bego, no reason why he couldn't for Sorenson.

      They had a great game. They all played well, even Ramsey stepped up his game. Its such a shame, Mertesacker had a game salvaging save on the goal line that would have made Skrtel proud, and Wenger blew it. His excuse was terrible, just because Arshavin is captain of Russia doesn't mean he isn't in really bad form right now.

      not sure about sorensen. his save where he tipped morison's shot onto the bar was incredible, as brilliant as his error was poor. will be a much more nervous wait for the team sheet next week for his owners that's for sure though
