Another own goal, another red card. Everton cling to a point at Loftus Road to frustrate Mark Hughes as the R’s remain rock bottom. Here’s the Stock Check on Sunday’s late kick-off…

On The Up

Junior Hoilett
Such a bright spark in Blackburn’s relegation season, Hoilett has struggled to cement a starting role in Mark Hughes’ new look outfit. The Canadian showed up today, however, firing the R’s in front via a Leighton Baines deflection and putting in a decent shift. Hoilett, offers an option in the R’s midfield, although if you’re looking to gamble on such a punt, Adel Taarabt is cheaper and arguably more potent.

Going Down

Steven Pienaar
Everton’s playmaker was harshly dismissed for two bookable offences – the second challenge looking innocuous to say the least. Pienaar is now set to serve a one-match ban that will see him sit out the Merseyside derby in Gameweek 9.

Anton Ferdinand
Dropped to the bench with Mark Hughes electing to start Ryan Nelsen and Stephane Mbia in central defence, Ferdinand’s starting role could now be at risk. Significantly, Nelsen has started the last six league outings for the R’s and is amongst the 4.0 defenders on offer in the FPL. Nelsen was withdrawn late on with cramp.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Any precedent for a goalkeeper with an assist and an own goal?
    Must be rare as a Suarez shot on target.

    Was all set to bring Walters in this GW but got a feeling he might be at risk for a 2nd striker....

    Also what are peoples thoughts on Kebe/McAnuff? Reading have some decent fixtures coming up... could pay dividends on one of those as cheap mid?

    since neither Walters nor Lennon are due to rise, and neither Ramirez nor AJ are due to drop (though AJ's fall last night caught me cold) worth waiting until Friday to do my changes just in case Lennon gets injured on Europa duty

      Seems to be more about game time and a bit of luck at the moment - still sticking with Tevez at the moment

    Michu.

    Stick or twist?

    I'm currently thinking stick because he's playing basically playing up front. In form too.

    What do you think?

          Fixtures are poor now on so it's possibly time to move- But W.Broms are not great either after the next 3 - maybe worth a punt if you have a settled squad

    What changes would you make in this team?
    Foster Begovic
    Baines Gibbs Nelsen Gorkss Davies
    Santi HBA Nolan Sterling Puncheon
    RVP Aguero Fletcher

    Have 2 ft, 3 in the bank.
    Thinking of doing: Fletcher + HBA ----> Ba + Bale
    Sounds ok? Would love some opinions

    Cheers!

    I really liked my team for last GW but GW9 & 10 looks tough on all fronts. Man city seem the only sure thing but I don't have any MC players because cant be sure who the heck will play..Is it worth getting Richards in for Hangle? or maybe Kolorov just for fun. only have .8 in the bank,just enough and one transfer.

    This is how my team looks if I don't do anything.

    Jaas
    Ivan,Hangle,Baines,Verm (Clyne)
    Hazz,Cazorla,Nolan(Sterling,Michu)
    Berb,Torr,Fletch

    Advice welcomed.

    Hi deadzoners, I have mostly been lurking, but my experience is that when you do drastic changes ie 4/8 point hits you very rarely have a good week, just had my best week after a week draught just doing Fellaini -> Nolan even though I don't rate him as a player. Finished 30xx last year, but having a hard time this year because every time I drink i make rash desicions. This is not a game for rash desicions.
