With the Gameweek settled and the Reebok woodwork still reverberating from the efforts of a luckless Robin Van Persie, it’s time for our Members to soak up a selection of key stats from our Opta data. As usual, we’ve also thrown in our take on how the Fantasy Premier League bonus could pan out…
2 from McAuley for me
RCA wc team in on previous page.Open Controls
I like it JK.
Can you afford Krul instead of Mignolet? (Ful/New have great rotation)...It would be a Krul/Santon double up but with the way Newcastle are it could be worthwhileOpen Controlsnope, 0.2 short. I had a look, great rotation for the next 3 weeks, then nothing, Sun/Ful is better GW27 right through. Can do Schwarzer to Krul but not Mignolet. Am tempted to keep the money and get myself 2 frees in order to get Ba back in, as I'll be short for him atm
Open Controls
Same here. Get the f*ck in!

Not sure if that's been posted yet. Wes Brown out for 8 weeks.Open Controls
See, THAT was the guy I was going to bring in to rotate for home CS.
Thwarted...Open ControlsPriced out. 4.5 already is on the upper side for cheapies, 4.8 is too far
Open Controls
Wayne Bridge 4.5 anyone?
Open ControlsOnly if he gets starts - 9 minute sub today?
Open Controls
Two forwards for 15.7? Already have RVP.
One of them would probably be on the bench 🙂Open Controls
Think DemBA is assured a start this weekend?
Open Controls
im almost embarassed to ask this but...anybody know why shotton didnt play at all, out of favor??
Open Controlsrotation, pennant back in favour, who knows. Was worth a shot for a while but now it's hard to know.
Open Controls
Repost - just putting this out there since some people are still on their wildcards. Rotation checker. Click on "Team" row underneath each position and select a team for each position. Shows best rotation and overall difficulty. May or may not work on your computer, provided "as is". Based on a spreadsheet by China Mag. Good luck.

Got home at 7.15pm on Tuesday night...turned on skysports news and found out bale was playing.
7.25pm...just managed to change the captain from VPS to bale. Very proud of myself 🙂 (tilting my ray-bans back up).
Still gutted I played sturridge and subbed MaClean (throws the raybans on floor)Open Controlswhat to do with this team? 1m in bank
Sorensen
Richards Santon Caulker (Shotton Kelly)
Bale Dempsey Silva Walters Sess
RVP Aguero (Keane)Open Controls
how good is this taiwo guy for qpr? Never really seen much of him but he got an assist today and plays defence and qpr got decent fixtures.
Open Controls
What does everyone think this weeks average will be pre bonus? My Guess 43.
Open Controls
Hard to know, higher than normal anyway.
Open Controls
I'm .3 short of doing Yak to Zamora. Don't really want to ditch Vorm as I've had him from the start but thinking I might need to swap him for Mignolet or Sorenson. My other keeper is Krul. Does that sound sensible? I don't really want rid of anyone else.
Open Controls
1 - Ba and Taiwo (or any defender less than 4.9M )
2 - BAE and Zamora
Rest of WC is
Vorm Krul
Richards Enrique Evans Simpson
Walters Silva Bale Valencia McClean
RVP AgueroOpen Controls1
Open Controls1. Good WC team....except for Vorm
Open Controlsand Enrique
Open ControlsCheers
Vorm and Enrique are locked in, had them since early and still think they are good value. I could keep BAE over Enrique?Open ControlsWhy "lock in" Vorm and Enrique? Their fixtures are poor. Don't fixate on the fact that you got them early and will lose team value using your WC.
Reverse the logic.
Look at it as a profit gained from those two players, sell them, and set your team up with two players with better fixtures and/or form.
EG, Mignolet and Huth.
Just my thoughts 😉Open Controls+100000000000

*This* is useful, non-generic advice.
Good show, RCA.Open ControlsThanks KE.
Open Controls
Vorm's next 4 are all fine. Not sure about Krul though, I am buying him for first time. Unsure about 5M tag.
I am also keeping them because the alternative are not appealing. Huth is tempting, but cant see Stoke getting many clean sheets. I am considering Senderos though, but again Fulham not convincing me. Sunderland's home games are tough now. I do appreicate the help, just putting forward my reasoning of keeping said players.Open ControlsI agree with RCA above. That said, I will be keeping Vorm as I bought him at 4.0 and I can't possibly replace him at that price.
Ultimately, play *your* game. It feels better when it works and hurts less when it doesn't.Open Controls
Fair point with Vorm, but there is absolutely no real reason to keep Enrique. On paper his price will drop over the next few weeks. Terrible fixtures and a blank sandwiched inbetween those fixtures. You can pick him back up once the fixtures ease up, no doubt at a lower price anyway.
Open ControlsYou're welcome. Good luck with the WC. I'm off to bed now
Open Controls
have 2FT with 0.2m in the bank.
vorm sorensen
RIchards Bae Raylor Senderos Caulker
Bale Silva Valencia Sess Walters
Rvp Aguero Fletcher
could get rid senderos + walters to evans + 5th mid (5.5m) before bring in ba over fletcher nextweek?Open Controlshow about mClean dude?
Open Controls
Is Valencia Armband material against a Chelsea side with no Cashly?
Open ControlsHe is, but he's also competing with RVP and Aguero at home to Blackburn/Fulham for the armband too. Could be a great punt though.
Open Controls
shotton > taiwo for free? will have 5.0 for defender and currently have Mignolet Sorensen Richards Kelly Santon Caulker
Open ControlsJust did Zamora. I want to wait and see how Ba looks and he may not start. Bobby has the better fixtures too.
Open Controls
hehe what meant that plus 1? he will or its a good question?
Open Controlsgood question - he's unsure of newcastle's new hero starting but sure that QPR's new striker is.
Open ControlsI think Ba will start tbh, but I just think it's slightly less certain as Pardew may not wish to rush him back after the ACON. Helguson may get the nod ahead of Zamora but I'd be very surprised.
Open Controls
Hughes is a big Zamora fan. Hulse was starting today. Hulse for God sake, I think Zamora will walk straight in. He's fully fit and in good form. I don't see why he'd be on the bench. He's also just had a rest.
Open Controls
Just brought in Ba for him. Can change as am on WC but think Ba will start at home this week
Open Controlsfor Patshaw
Open Controls
If Studge drops tonight then I won't make profit on him when I sell.
Should I do Sturridge OUT, Zamora IN??
I'll have a front 8 of this...
Ox, Valencia, Dempsey, Sessegnon, Bale
Zamora, RVP, Aguero
And will probably bench Sess or DempOpen ControlsEither Zamora or Ba for me
Open Controls
I have 2 FTs, and for the first time ever, I am considering not using them... this is completely unexpected...
Open ControlsGranted I could take out Baines cos everybody thinks he too expensive, but I didn't and it paid off this week... and when everyone else was bitching and moaning about the lack of a Citeh CS, I was sitting smugly in my chair...
With Jelavic upfront now, Baines could have found exactly who he needs to convert his crosses...
Things are looking pretty good for Everton right about now...Open Controls
You are doing better than I am but I would look at replacing Sturridge, Senderos, maybe Walters.
Open ControlsI don't see the point in replacing Sturridge to be honest, but I'll wait for team news on Ba... and Studge may very well rise to the occasion and score against Utd.
Yes Senderos is a big stain in my team right now, everything about Fulham points to home clean sheets, but still they fail to get one... and I will keep the faith...
Walters IS still on pens and has great home fixtures, I would be mad to bin him, just cos he missed a bloody penalty, calm down...
Enrique has too much intrinsic value for me, and I know I'll want him back when their fixtures clear up. and anyway Liverpool are SO unpredictable right now, they might keep some cleanies against these harder teams...
I don't wanna start making transfers just for the sake of it...Open Controls
How about the following transfer?
Ricahrds,Fletcher > Ba, Shawcross?
2 FTOpen Controls
Is Sessegnon > Valencia a good or bad move?
Open Controls
BAE owners wildcarding this week - are you getting rid? Only 1 decent fixture in the next 4, but if you got him at 5.3m like I did, you'd lose a fair bit of value if ditching now.
Open ControlsSame here. Small chance I will keep but now is the time to sell.
Open ControlsI'm probably getting rid too. Opting for Richards/Kompany, Huth and Simpson to play 3 of the next 4, with Caulker and one other to come in for Simpson and Huth in GW25. JEvans or even doubling on SWA seems a decent shout, so I may go for them over BAE.
Open Controls
Im keeping him for as long as his price holds up , Home to Newcastle next week which is reasonable fixture
Open Controls
So far I have 67 points, bit gutted though as I have 24 languishing on the bench. Could have been sitting on 84 now. 🙁
Open ControlsI feel your pain dude, but you have to be honest, you were never gonna drop Silva, Richards, RVP or Sturridge (Ok, maybe Sturridge) were you?
Those were the only players who didn't score points for you... Vorm had a home fixture against a poor Chelsea team, that's just unlucky...Open Controls
Hi guys a little help plz.have 2 fts and 0.1 in bank.any suggestions.
Krul/mignolet
simpson/richards/evans/caulkar/senderos
silva/dempsey/valencia/mclean/bale
rvp/aguero/fletcherOpen Controls
Aguero -> Ba (then maybe upgrade Fletcher)
And I recommend Bardsley in defense.Open Controls
Is having Taiwo and Zamora overkill? Should I just get one?
Open Controls
i dont think so
all of a sudden there aren't that many nailed on options up front and zamora stacks up well against dzeko or sturridge or any other striker for the next few
and why not have taiwo for the same reasons - nobody blowing them out of the water as options right nowOpen ControlsI considered Taiwo, but came to the conclusion that forward threat isn't going to outweigh the lack of clean sheets. QPR concede by the dozen. Bardsley 4.8 or Santon 4.2 is better options for attacking full backs.
