Having already run the rule over the Goalkeepers, and Defenders for the season ahead, the third part in our series of Members articles sees us analyse the midfielders. With the aid of our Projections we’ve analysed the average points expected per player over the course of the upcoming campaign and, applying this to the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) player price list, have listed the top ten in terms of expected value per Fantasy pound for the season ahead…

@Manamongst
Doosra is hunting you down.
Check your mail.Open ControlsMorning everyone.
According to reports, RVP is about to sign for United.
http://www.espnstar.com/football/premier-league/news/detail/item835354/United-have-clear-path-to-Van-Persie/Open Controlsok
back with some Qs, but these ones are more precise, (slightly)
Nelsen starting fro QPR?
Stam Starting for Wigan?
Mariappa starting for Reading?
Dawson starting for west brom?
if any are, u'd think thats where the value is?
if u can help with any of these i'd love you!Open ControlsAnd last draft for today.. ❗ ❗ ❗
Federici - Friedel
Lescott - Ivan - Cuellar - Clyne - Demel
Bale - Sinclair - Kagawa - Noble - Guthrie
Aguero - Torres(+2) - Petric
Have 0.5m more in the bank..Look good dude?Open ControlsDemel post i saw b4 ]

YUCK
other than that all goodOpen Controlshaha ! LOL.. maybe ok for 5th def atm..
Open Controls
0.5 m for Ivanovic-->Vidic?
Open ControlsYippy ! will get Vidic for gw2..
Open ControlsShould have him everyday
Best player in the leagueOpen Controls😆
Open ControlsI know agent Sigga..But need Ivan for the DGW first..
Open Controlsfair enough,
Ivan provides more attacking returns than Acole,
so i enjoy that pick on that reasoning and their two fixtures for the gameweek are really good,
but u must offload for vidic because those two fixtures out of the way and chels look shakeyOpen Controls
Get a room! 😀
Open Controls...best central def in Europe when he's fit and on form.
Open Controls
Petric seems to be this years must have in the face of pre season.
Casting my mind back, looks like BoselliOpen Controls+1
Open ControlsDon't pick him then... Boselli is banging them in pre season again... 😉
Open ControlsPetric plays for a better team.
Also looks like he will be first choice.Open ControlsDon't let Forca see that 😉
Open ControlsHe is about to come on 😉
Open Controls
So i am close to going in with 2 Chelsea players from the off and just avoiding that midfield minefield.
Open ControlsDoos was looking for you.
Open ControlsReplied to his mail. Wait let me check junk.
Open ControlsGoing in with 2 Che and avoiding that MF a good idea?
Open ControlsI'm no expert. I'm having one anyway.
Open ControlsI've dumped Torres, just going with Ivan and Lampard
Open Controls...I'm also very tempted to give Torres a kick up the ass. Lamps+Cole my alternative. Let's me go in with Rooney and will downgrade Cole to a 5m def in week 2.
Would mean downgrading yaya though...
😕Open ControlsWait on starting with Rooney. Problem is those Che fixtures look good.
And Everton wont concede many.Open ControlsDumped Rooney too... 🙂 Going with Aguero and Tevez with enough cash to get Rooney if required. Got a feeling I won't want to...
Open ControlsThis is my thinking!
Thinking also if Citeh put up 6 goals against SOT it will hurt the DGW zombies.Open Controls
I think it's better to avoid a defender and just go with a City defender.
Open Controls
Friedel / Federici
A.cole ,Lescott ,Hangeland –-- Fonte , McCartney

Any suggestions on how to improve itOpen ControlsNo MU coverage?
Open Controls
Morning all
Just a quick poll - which def u like most (and why if u care to comment)?
A
DDG/Federici
Lescott/Kaboul/Hughes/Fonte/Demel
B
Friedel/Federici
Lescott/Williams/Hangeland/Cuellar/Demel
C
Hart/Rudd
Kaboul/Williams/Hangeland/Cuellar/Demel
D
Any other combo of 35m
Rest of my team is:
Bale/Lampard/Sinclair/Noble/Maloney
Rooney(Torres GW1)Aguero/Petric
Thx in advance.Open ControlsDDG/Federici
Lescott/Williams/Hangeland/Cuellar/Demel
is probly better than any of those and saves you 0.5Open Controls(because spurs + avb could potentially leak goals for fun, while swansea have boosted their defence and got clean sheets galore last season AND have great fixtures)
Open ControlsYeah, was thinking about it, but spurs have so nice fixtures first few gameweeks that I wanted to have their cover:/ Thx for help:)
Open Controlsfair reasoning but i'd have attacking cover rather than defensive (and you already covered that :p), plus spurs have newcastle GW1 which may be tricky. i'd wait and see, on the defensive front.
Open Controls
I would be 0,5m short for that
Open Controls
A for me..
Open ControlsB but drop Williams to Fabio and lescott for vidic 🙂
Open ControlsBut no Man Shity cover then?
Open Controlsqpr's fixtures are horrible, don't see the point in fabio early on.
Open Controls+1
Open ControlsSwansea won't be the same without BR,
plus fabio OOP?Open ControlsFabio mainly played RB in pre-season. He was once used as RM. Plus look at QPR fix from GW 3 on. But good point, you don't know how Swans will do.
Open Controlsnot the same perhaps, but just as good i reckon. manager who seems to understand/share the philosophy and has brought in some real coups.
Open ControlsFabio won't be OOP.
Open Controls
You will see why at least 5% of the population have him...and it ain't for the cleanies!
Open ControlsYou guys do realize that he is always injured and is as fragile as a china vase.
Open ControlsSo was van Persie, when it happens it happens, pointless worrying about that now.
He's not injured and that's all you need to concern yourself with at the moment.Open ControlsI'm not concerned because he's not in my team.
Open ControlsLogic tells you that if you are going cheap then you ain't picking them for clean sheets, you are picking them for attacking returns, if you wanted security of clean sheets then you would be paying a bit more than 4.5m
Even if you rotate the fixtures, getting a clean sheet with the budget players is very much a hit and hope.Open Controls
Mign/Fedrci
Hughes/Lescott/Barnet/Fabio/Williams or Rangel..34m
saves you 1mill...to upgrade Sinclair to yaya.
Then you have my team.Open Controlssinclair to yaya is barely an upgrade IMO, sinclair outscored him last season and although sinclair played more minutes, there's no reason to assume he won't play more again this season.
Open ControlsI like it. Maybe would drop Fabio till they bad fixtures end.
Open ControlsAnd I think that for now Aguero is enough. Sinclair have great fix. Would rather downgrade Sinclair to Michu and upgrade Maloney to McClean/Pienaar
Open Controls
Morning folks. This is an interesting read, although I'm not sure what conclusions to draw from it. I become more of a fan of Chris Glover with every article he posts:
http://premierleaguefantasy.blogspot.com/2012/08/do-defences-really-strengthen-as-season.htmlOpen ControlsHaving the Beach Volleyball at night is borderline criminal imo.
Open ControlsSteve Kean has confirmed to ESPN that Blackburn Rovers have made a bid for Jordan Rhodes
Open ControlsSo Rovers are making an effort to have; bids most likely to be laughed at in Championship as well!
Open Controls
If Dempsey leaves Fulham, will Kacaniklic start? He was apparently very good in their last pre-season game.
Open ControlsIt's between him, Rodallega and Frei.
Open ControlsI think he will until Rodellega is 100% match fit but Roddy's costing Fulham too much money to leave him on the bench for long!
Open ControlsRodallega will start ahead of him.
Fulham have had 2 bids turned down for Jarvis as well.Open Controls

Open Controlsfed | jaas
cole | ivan | rangel | cuellar | clyne
silva | hazard | michu | noble | guthrie
aguero | tevez | bent
pretty happy with this ATM. risky enough to be semi-original, not so risky as to be ludicrous.
probably hazard ---> valencia/kagawa/siggy/vdv GW2 followed by ivanovic ----> vidic GW3...Open ControlsI won't be comfortable not having Rooney for FUL/south/WIGAN. I'd rather have Lescott as my third City player instead of Tevez/Silva.
West ham's def worries me. Guthrie/michu...no thanks.
But that's just me.Open Controlsno city defense no united?
midfield is nice, forward line is good
don't like your defense expect your two cheapest
Chels look shakey and Rangel didn't do much last season + swansea won't be as solid now BR is goneOpen ControlsDon't like Bent in there
Open Controls
Is Rio nailed on if he doesn't get a ban?
Open ControlsI'd prefer a screw then a nail.
Open ControlsJones/Rafa Evans/Jones/Ferdinand Vidic Evra/new signing yet to come?
is how i think the uniteds backline will look
Jones could potentially play midfield as well
though i hate Ferdinand and Jones o and evra and Evans
but most of all i hate ferdinandOpen Controls
Clyne or Demel?

(A) Aguero/Kagawa or (B) Rooney/Yaya Toure?
Open ControlsFull team is
Jaaskelainen / Federici
Lescott / Fabio / Coloccini / Cole A / Hangeland
Kagawa / Bale / Mata / Pienaar / Michu
Aguero / Boselli / PetricOpen ControlsI have A but not so sure with Kagawa. SAF has 1001 attacking options and if RVP and/or Moura arrives....forget about it.

If so.. choo choo!Open ControlsChanged mine up a little:
DDG (Beg)
Cole Lescott Hughes (Cuellar McCartney)
Sigg Yaya Valencia Dyer (Noble)
Aguero (c) Ade Graham
Thoughts???Open ControlsNo Chelsea attack for the DGW could be a disaster.
Open ControlsI had Mata+Piennar, but Chel are all over the place with form and rotations. Also Everton's slow start.
I'm expect more points out of Yaya+Valencia over the first three weeks.
Also save my trades for price rises rather than having to drop Chelsea players who's prices could dive.Open Controls
A) Hart + Tevez
B) 4.5M GK + AgueroOpen ControlsA quick poll:
