Fernando Torres matched the achievements of Liverpool’s Luis Suarez with a hat-trick of his own as Chelsea swept pass relegation threatened QPR. With Rafael Van der Vaart delivering in Tottenham’s routine win over Blackburn, the double Gameweek gambles have almost paid in full, with another 90 minutes to go.
Here’s our usual round-up for Members of some of the key performance statistics collected so far, together with our punt on where the Fantasy Premier League bonus points could be heading…
What an utterly brilliant song. One of my favorites. Random I know 🙂

80 with 10 to play!!
Cant believe i didn't captain him
Up 31 places so far this GW. Prolific.
down 1200 places. Not so prolific.
Next season im picking the most obvious picks, no cheeky punts like moses or taraabt. Just based on pure skill/ teams.
3 United
3 City
2 Spurs
1 Arsenal
2 Toon
1 Swans
2 Che
1 Random
Ok maybe not exactly that but you get my point.
Will cost too much
Will no oubt have a spattering of reading and southampton players on the bench too start off.
Van Persie will be a ridiclous price to start off, if he still here
RVP 13 - Rooney 12 - Jelavic 7.5
Silva 10 - Mata 10 - Moses 6 - Sess 7 - ??? 4
Cahill 6 - Kompany 6.5 - Simpson 5 - ??? 4
Krul 5 - ??? 4
ont like that team much , 5 too much to pay for a keeper , Mata still not really done enough , Simpson too much for no attacking thret , Cahill might cost more than that ,
So what would you suggest in terms of pricing?
Like and example would be:
12 10 6
10 8 7 5 4
7 5 6 4 4
6 4
Like how will you be breaking down your budget? Focus on attack first, or balance?
Toon players likely to be overpriced , Big overachievers this year , expect regression
bale set him up yesterday, hopefully VDV will return the favour on Wed!
I'm so pissed at not getting Walker. I was considering Hibbert, Terry or Walker. Guess which one I ended up with.
One thing you might want to bear in mind is that player who are involved in the euros tend to start slowly in the league.
Its normally the new teams that start off well , its silly to have the high priced players to begin with as your in danger of losing money. Until xmas my one aim is to grow my budget .
75 points with 10 to play!
Any Idea what time bonus poins are relesed
One step at a time Jaf.. 😉
Look at this guy http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/928972/event-history/36/! Sometimes it's a miracle to take so many transfers!
Ranked 1 millionth overall, I don't think so.
Is that the top scorer for the gw? Dgw's are the best chance of making hits pay off. 180 mins to lay down big scores. Thats why it makes me laugh at people complaining about some players returns, with 9m mins to go!
+1 People have to realize that with their DGW payers, they're only halfway there!
Bolton, Blackburn, QPR and Villa: which 2 are going down?
BOL and BLB?
QPR, Blackburn
QPR and BLA
Its a toss up between bolton and qpr tbh. Depends on who performs, i just see bolton staying up imo.
Hey, Jafalad, how you doing?
QPR and Blackburn. Although it may be close between QPR and Bolton.
Any Bp predictions?
Torres 3 Terry 2 Sturridge 1?
Walker 3 VDV 2 Bale 1?
😕
Pienaar? Rvp? Siggy?
wasn't ignoring you earlier... got dragged away... big problem I'm handling Dubai police etc.... I wasn't in Thailand that is in August.. I went to UK and then Euro Disney for my son.. catch you later.. gotta go again!!!!!
oops, sorry...your such a high flyer these days ...EuroDisney.....Kruger....Thailand....Can't keep up.
Police? Problem?
Let me know if you need help. With your FPL team that is.
😉
This murky underworld stuff is complicated, us 'simplistic' beings just can't comprehend it, don't try it's too dangerous.
3 points > Torres,Walker,McLean,Jarvis,Jelavic,Suarez,Moses,Crouch.
This hilarious Miss of the Season http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ese9_mXq9c
Alright off to catch some shut-eye, wake up and watch the manc derby.
Hoping for a city W so United have to catch them on GD, should be a cracker of a match!
For me the main thing is that utd don't lose, that'll be enough to win the league. But what I wouldike to see is utd head to the ethiad and stuff em, city to take the lead and utd to reply with a brace from Rooney and fittingly Antonio Valencia driving the dagger in to make it city 1-3 utd.
71 possession, 19 attempts on goal, 3 crossbars (albeit 1 ended up in the net), 0 attempts on goal conceded.
Are Tottenham finding some form or were Blackburn truly that awful?
Either way, sometimes takes an awful team to play you into form.
I thought Spurs were very good yesterday and contributed to why they dominated the game. Blackburn were totally outplayed. They didn't help themselves tho. Showed no urgency to close down players. Even towards the end when they got some of the ball. You would expect them to go long, and direct to try get something out of the game. But just passed it across the back 4.
Bolton game should be an interesting indication of how Tottenham are travelling.
Blackburn were pathetic. I honestly don't think I've ever seen such an inept performance from a team. A team can lack quality, but considering where they are in the league to not show any fight whatsoever and just sit behind the ball all game (even though they were losing!) was pathetic. Good riddance when they go down.
so is VDV>Nani the right choice? VDV seems to be winning with fixtures but Nani with form. it's just too frustrating to see Spurs not perform against Blackburn.
Even though Blackburn were so woeful, the one thing Spurs will have got from the game, apart from 3pts, is some confidence going into the Bolton game. Bolton will have to attack I'd imagine, so should present some gaps for VDV & co to exploit. Maybe. I hope.
Is terry and bale set to pick up any bps based on ppi scores?
Terry?
How likely is it that Mata plays against Newcastle? FA Cup at the weekend, but could be their most important PL match.
I imagine he'll start but will be subbed off after 60mins or so.
He'll start I reckon. Came off early after running the show. U can't underestimate the importance of the Newcastle game, I personally think for its more important than the Cup final. I bet if u asked them to choose between the cup and 4th, they would choose 4th.
pardon me but, can i still follow this site via RSS? cant seems to find the feeds, help?
59 minutes knowing my luck
United players were shaken yesterday after a wild return flight from Cardiff where they had a two-night break.
Their 30-seater plane was heavily buffeted on take-off and early on. Rio Ferdinand tweeted afterwards: “Landed safely in Manchester from Cardiff... bumpy old flight that.”
Well, it serves them right for going to Cardiff. Why couldn't they just go to Spain and play golf like everybody else?
Tevez looking to stay @ City beyond this season...just announced on Sky Sports...
Good shout for fantasy next season.
Very good shout. Will make the striker choices even harder... Torres, RVP, Rooney, Tevez, Cisse, Jelavic, etc should all be up there. (Spurs striker too if they secure one)
Suarez too perhaps..
Sorry to any offended Liverpudlians.
If that's true and if its true that Spurs aren't taking Ade then Citeh will have Kun/Tevez/Ade/Dzeko/Balo...
😯
Having resisted the Turner -> Terry (4 point hit) punt last week, I feel like I owe it to myself to take a hit this week. Any ideas? Best I can come up with is:
a) P Cisse & Siggy -> Rooney & Moses,
b) Turner & Siggy -> Baines/Vermaelen & Pienaar, or
c) Kompany & Siggy -> Vermaelen & Nani
Bogdan
JEvans, Kompany, Skrtel
Dempsey, Valencia, Bale, VDV
RVP, P Cisse, Jelavic
Mignolet, Siggy, Turner, Caulker
Bank 5.4m, 1 freebie
Something involving Vermaelen I'd say, but waiting until the weekend is the best option.
