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…

      Can you imagine Ferguson being interviewed like that? I think the BBC this year is being a bit more 'abrasive' with their style of questioning this year, especially with the Mancini interview a few weeks back. I'd love to see Ferguson interviewed like that, as his reaction would be pure tv gold. he'd scare the cack out of the BBC reporter!

    Lots of RMT midfields looking similar.

    I find one player a little too highly touted though.

    Antonio Valencia. I think he's overproduced by far in these last few gameweeks, and he'll be a 2 point machine for the next few weeks. He played at right back against Chelsea for much of the second half.

    On the other hand, people dropping Sessegnon because of fixtures I feel might come to regret it. An out of position player on such good form for a team who are looking great should not be the one sacrificed to get form players in.

    But of course, that's just my honest opinion, and this season, I haven't been right as much as I've been wrong.

        These are Mark's words and I don't believe them.

        He overproduces because his crosses are too good and he can't possibly keep up that accuracy.

          It's not about Valencia, its about United's conversion of Valencia's crosses. I think the members article showed 8 assists from 14 key passes...compared to Nani's 3 assists from 25 key passes in the same spell. Of course Valencia's quality was a factor, but also, we can presume that United won't go on converting his key passes at such a rate.

              Defensive upgrades are tough right now with fixtures but you could look there. Look good upfront; Siggy and McClean(if at some point you want to switch out Sess. Rooney for Aguero in a few weeks for me.

                I don't plan on getting rid of sess yet to be honest, only change i can see me doing is the one i mentioned, aguero > rooney (for spurs away, i fancy rooney to score well there). and maybe dyer to siggy. be good to have a decent differential in midfield because it looks a bit generic at the moment (but has been performing well so i can't complain).

    Could see nothing but a United win before todays game...Even put £5 on them so can't be too disappointed with the result... United deserved something from the game

        Nicholson was terrible though. It's astounding how nerves effect even the best.

    Liked Cisse' movement in the box. I am going to take a punt on him. Think him and Ba will score a similar amount.

      also like the look of him, but might hold off until after Spurs.
