A superb Stamford Bridge encounter brings Sunday’s events to a close and allows us to take a step back and start examining the action in more detail. Our Members can now lose themselves in our selection of key stats from the matches so far, and assess our view on where the Fantasy Premier League bonus could be heading…

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

      Definately one of the Swansea duos. I personally don't see what the love for QPR is about - Taraabt may have looked good in this week's game but in the end didn't score. I'd probably wait until they actually start proving themselves to be consistent.

        Tarrabt did look hot on MOTD and would he differential. Had him early in season and that failed.

    Should I hold onto Enrique?

    Most people have already got rid, but from GW30 onward, Liverpool's fixtures really pick up and as I bought him when he was 5.5, he's a cheap option.

      If you can bench him for the tough games & don't mind the blank, keep. Depends on your other 4 defs really.

        cheers. Morale of story is there's still plenty of time left, no need for people to start panicking and going for crazy differentials

    Who should I ship Cahill out for? Don't fancy him getting 90mins every week from here.

    My other defenders are:
    Simpson, Senderos, Enrique & Kompany.

      I'm holding onto him, Chelsea's fixtures are okay, I could see him bringing in CSs.

      Evans? Cheap and from ManU. Today's unlucky performance didn't help but still 😛

      You have the exact back line as me. My fifth is Caulker as the three cheapies rotate well (Corrigan was kind enough to do the research: http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2012/01/06/the-watchlist-wildcard-defenders/comment-page-1/#comments ). Between the sticks I have Vorm/Lindegaard.

      Good luck.

      If you can I'd do

      Welbeck -> Ba (or Cisse if you want a differential)

      and save the other transfer.

      Otherwise swap Shotton out as well if you want.

      Get rid of Shotton. For FUL/QPR defender.

      had high hopes for RvP, Aguero and Gerbil, but as Meat Loaf would say 2 out 3 ain't bad.
