Arsenal’s battling performance at the Etithad and a dramatic second-half turnaround at the Lane bring Gameweek 5 to a close. Our members can now let the dust settle on their Fantasy scores before gorging on all the stats from all the weekend’s matches, or just read on for the numbers that piqued our interest…

what happened with Tevez?
Open Controls-
Life.
Open Controls -
He was rested.
Open Controls-
You forgot to say which site on the previous page lol...fiso or totalfpl..cheers!

Permanently?
Open Controls-
Wouldn't think so, although he could be rotated with Dzeko and Balotelli.

Just so you guys know i'm going to work on doing Tevez --> Aguero with my WC this week. I just think hes the most nailed on striker for them (as good as youre going to get) and if and when man city score as many goals as their capable, if you have one of their strikers and theyre not playing... youre going to regret it
Open Controls-
I think you forgot who was the, "most nailed on striker" before Kun came around. I would go as far to say there is no such thing as a, "most nailed on striker" in a team like this anymore.
Open Controls-
Yes, yes, yes.
Tevez is easily as first-place as Kun, but they'll both be rested from time to time. I'd imagine they even out in the long haul (for time played).
Kun being #1 is one of those urban myths that most believe in ... for no real good reason.Open Controls-
£39 million pounds, their top goal scorer last year, the saviour of their season and tbh their best striker. I think he'll play the most games out of all 4.
Open Controls-
Blah-blah-blah.
You quote stats like you don't know what happened with Tevez last year. The year previous, Tevez was untouchable as City's best player. He was also instrumental on his return to the squad last year. Tevez is better than Kun because he can come deep for the ball and contribute in other ways Kun can't - including scoring away from home.Open Controls

Just a heads up for people, my two last transfers out have been Lescott and Bale, so if I were you I'd buy/captain any of the following 😉
Tevez, Johnson, Dyer, Torres, Hazard, Guthrie, BoyceOpen Controls-
ramirez

so it all comes down to leaving Tevez out or Hazard out 🙁
Open Controls-
I'm going with Hazard

Open Controls -

For a 4-point hit:
zabaleta > baines
torres > fletcher, ba, defoe or lambert ???
Which of these strikers to choose? Already have tevez and berba….Open Controls -

The Andrew Mitchell twitter account is almost definitely a fake.

Bale is back on form glad i kept him
Open Controls-
Same here. 🙂
Open Controls

Nolan, Sterling or Morrison? Need a cheap replacement for Hazard so I can upgrade Cuellar to Baines. Both are free transfers.
Also, why are people getting rid of Tevez? His fixtures are amazing and he was clearly just rested today. He's been City's best striker so far this season easily and he's a proven EPL scorer.Open Controls-
ramirez. trust me.

so glad i held bale.....lookin good
Open Controls-
Same. Annoyed I had to take the price drops though. Never understood why people were taking him out with those fixtures!
Open Controls-
Because he and Tottenham as a whole looked like shaite, and those in the same category looke far better value, even with those fixtures. To be fair he wasnt that good against Reading where he got a lucky goal and lucky 3bps. Didnt have a chance to watch todays game, so i cant say how he was there, but yeah everybody knows hes explosive.
Open Controls-
Yeah, class is permanent though and AVB is a decent manager. You're right about the Reading game though. Very lucky!
Open Controls-
It is, but form is temporary and when you have Caz/Hazard etc that were producing somebody had to go. AVB is probably a quality manager, but he seems a lot less attack minded than say Harry was, which could be bad for Bale FPL-wise. Also injuries are affecting things, i mean he might have stayed the entire game at LB if they looked to cruise to an easy win today.
Open Controls -
Ah, my favorite myth: 'Bale is class'!
No offense intended to you, IBWT ... but Bale's got the greatest PR team in the country.Open Controls-
Ah I dunno about that, that's very harsh. No doubt he's over hyped because he's British, but he is a good player. Certainly the only player out of a Tottenham midfield with good fixtures worth looking at. Do you just see him as too much of a defensive liability?
Open Controls-
One thing we can all agree on. He looks very simian.
Open Controls -
I see him as a solid player. I think Dempsey is nearly twice the player he is, though ... but I wouldn't want Deuce playing fullback, either.
Otherwise, he had two good games against a past-it Maicon.Open Controls

Because his first 3 fixtures were plump and sweet and he did FA, I'd expect.
Open Controls-
In his defense, his first 3 fixtures were @ Newcastle, not exactly easy, West Brom who are currently #4 in the table, and Norwich who conceded the least goals of any team in the bottom 7 in spite of the hammering they took against Fulham in week 1.
Open Controls-
Having said all that, his fantasy points have been absurdly lucky the last two weeks. 6 bonus points with only 1 soft goal and 45 minutes at left back? I think in keeping him, his owners have been as lucky as good.

i do, because haz was playin better (ie gettin loads of points) with good fixtures............bales stats are solid tho
Open Controls

thoughts on zamora as a differential??
Open Controls-
Only 2 of his games in the next 6 look pretty good. Too many other cheap strikers performing well with better fixtures.
Open Controls-
ah yeah, some difficult away games and home to Everton i see your point.
just got caught up watching MOTD2 lolOpen Controls

I pondered this yesterday and got shouted down told it was a bad idea and to get Fletcher/Lambert, etc instead, although that was before he scored today.

is anichebe likely to continue playing? been in good form.

Chances of Chelsea keeping a clean sheet vs Arsenal?
Open Controls-
Very slim the way theyre defending atm and the way Arsenal are attacking!
Open Controls-
The way Chelsea have kept the most clean sheets in the EPL so far?
Open Controls-
Against Wigan, QPR, Newcastle and Stoke, mind you. And they have been very fortunate to not concede in pretty much all those games that they have clept cleanies in as well.
Open Controls-
And Arsenal scored the bulk of their goals against Southampton. Your point?
Open Controls-
My point is that Chelsea arent defending well this year even though they have 4 clean sheets in the league, they very well could have been left with 1, and Arsenal have been attacking well and are certainly gaining confidence. I`d be very surprised if that game turns out to be a low scoring one.

I've been to Donegal 3 times on holidays and loved every minute. Love the place. They were on the road to Croke Park when I was there last and me and some mates were contemplating going to Dubin this weekend to try and watch the final (but didn't make it). Congratulations. Fairy tale stuff.
Open Controls-
Thanks bro, everyone is always welcome in Donegal. Let the celebrations begin. Whats with your link by the way?
Open Controls-
Yeah - I've got that impression! Very friendly part of the world. Dooey's beach is probably my favourite ever beach.
Err - yeah just seen that. An old Kanu goal. Not quite sure what that's doing there - and can't be bothered to change it though either!Open Controls-
