The Numbers Game – Relegation Candidates

19 April 2012 1747 comments

Paul

As the scrap for survival enters the final four Gameweeks of the season, today’s Members article assesses the top performers from the bottom five sides over each side’s respective last four fixtures. Using our own ICT Index and the Opta stats available, we analyse the top five from each of the relegation candidates, assessing their form and the potential offered ahead of what will prove to be a frantic finish to the 2011/12 Premier League campaign. As luck would have it, this also doubles up as an assessment of those players in form amongst the ranks of Villa and Bolton – those teams with two fixtures in Gameweek 35…

Right, getting rid of Arteta for Dempsey. This necessitates getting rid of either Rooney or van Persie for either Tevez or Aguero. What would be your choice from that lot?

      He's on pens and is more of a finisher and Tevez more of a creator. I'm splitting hairs but Aguero is cheaper, so it kind of tips the balance.

    yea. on form Petrov would be the one to pick for de double but don't think he'll score much away to villa for his second game. Villa have nice fixtures but horrible form. They should be stinging a bit after Man U last week and may bounce back? Collins could get 2 cleanies, best case scenario 12 pts.

I was going to do Rooney>Cisse, Sess>Demps & RVP>Tevez over next few weeks, but not 100%

Rooney-playing badly, tough fixtures but scoring
Cisse- On form but has Che and City in coming weeks
RVP - off form, im looking for differential
Tevez- after this week tough fixtures, not 100% to start, but could score big this weekend if plays
Dempsey-On form, but has an on form wigan this week and tough away double gameweek

Please someone help me out need to pull back 45points

Team at the moment for GW35 (1 free transfer & 0.9m in the bank):

Krul(STO)
Kompany(wol) Vermaelen(CHE) Evans(EVE)
Walcott(CHE) Sigurdsson(bol) Bale(qpr) Valencia(EVE)
Rooney(EVE) RVP(CHE) Cisse(STO)

subs – Vorm, Simpson, McClean, Kelly

Firstly, are my starting XI and subs selected correctly? Secondly, what is my best approach for this week?

a) Walcott > Demspey
b) Rooney > Aguero
c) both, for a 4 point hit
d) nothing, and have 2 valuable frees for GW36

Thoughts?

    The one time i have doubled up with Krul and Simpson it didn't work out and i've been reluctant to do it since. Needless to say i've missed out on a few Simpson clean sheets since! I do think they have a great chance of a CS this week but i also think Vermaelen is a good option against a knackered Chelsea team who will surely have one eye on next Wednesday

      It's not a bad shout really and I do fancy Dempsey for this week but I'm not quite sure what he'll do with his 2 away games in the DGW. I have him and thus I am keeping him for the double but I don't expect too much to be perfectly honest.

  I'm surprised a bit for the low vote support for a). I thought it gives the team one more DGW player and access to goal scoring opportunities in one more game.. I'm quite certain to do a) myself.

So...crazy to captain Rooney? In every home game this season he has started and played more than 60 minutes (13 out of 16), he has only got a score of 2 in 1 of them (the defeat to Man City). In all the rest he has managed at least a goal or an assist (with the exception of Sunderland where he still got 2 BPs).

If people have Tevez/Aguero then fair enough (even though the 6 goal 'demolition' of Norwich really flattered to deceive IMO), but other than those 2, there are no other outstanding options for captaincy.

Cisse looks good value but how long will his goalscoring form last and then we have Dempsey who, although is in good form, is playing for a team playing for nothing against a very in-form side who are actually playing for premiership survival.

So...are people crazy to be transferring Rooney out like mad? I think he might be one of the best captain choices for this GW.

  Good point on Rooney's home form. I've had him for captain throughout the season except the last 2 GW. GW 33 had Cisse which proved a good decision, but last week captaining RVP was a disaster.

  Good points. This is why I sold RVP rather than Wazza. I got in Aguero.
  
  The last result did flatter but Wolves aren't going to keep a clean sheet so there will be goals.
  
  I have Evans & Valencia so already triple covered for United so captain goes to Kun.
