[sbu_large_image] The Stock Check

A dubious penalty, compounded by a red card, knocks the wind out of Wigan but hands Demba Ba the platform to reward the faith of his army of Fantasy owners. Here’s the Stock Check from Monday’s events…

On the Up

Demba Ba
The Senegalese striker went into tonight’s game having scored just once in his last five league appearances but rewarded the patience of his owners with a brace. Ba converted the early spot-kick before leaping on the rebound from Davide Santon’s effort to take him to ten goals for the season. Tonight’s returns will earn him further interest, although Ba was struggling with his hamstring late on, with Alan Pardew optimistic post-match that this was just stiffness rather than a setback.

Fabricio Coloccini
The towering Argentine has emerged as the most popular member of the Newcastle defence in terms of FPL ownership and his return to the Magpies’ back four has added the stability that helped them to their first clean sheet in ten league outings.

Going Down

The Wigan Defence
Robbed of Antolin Alcaraz for much of the season and with further niggles biting, Roberto Martinez now faces more problems at the back with Maynor Figueroa banned for the vital home clash with QPR, while Gary Caldwell picked up his fifth booking tonight which will also see him miss the weekend. With Ivan Ramis remaining an injury doubt, the Latics look set to field a patched-up back four for the visit of Harry Redknapp’s side.

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

    Fulham vs Newcastle will be a transfer death match for me. Have Berbatov, want Ba, who ever scores biggest in this game get's the place on a 5 week deal......

      i think Ba > Berba in Gw19 is more practical given fixtures. plus, ba is scoring atm while berba's not.

        Berbs with Petric not a great fantasy partnership...... Berbs playing deeper but playing very well.

        If Ruiz is back then Berbs moves forward and fantasy potential goes sky high....

        Im captaining Berbs if Ruiz is confirmed fit.

      RVP as always is a good bet. Rooney too.

      I actually think there will be a reaction to recent results and this fixture. I reckon both teams will tighten up at the back and it'd be relatively low scoring.

        I've been thinking this for bloody ages, but Man Utd havent tightened up at all and dont look like having the capability of doing so.

        City are doing just fine defensively however with Nasty slotting in nicely next to Kompany

        Before Rafa arrived at Chelsea I would have whole-heartedly agreed with you.

        But post-Rafa Chelsea seems to be a different animal than RDMs Chelsea.

        Mata will still score points because he's a class player butr he'll probably be rested every third game and Chelsea wont be scoring as many goals in general

          I deserved it. Will be staying away from Michu this week due to my crappy team & the probable yellow he would get if I bought him. Should have just stuck with the safer Ba & disregarded all the Suarez(c) on here.

          You may aswell. It's a real mess. 😕
          Worst FPL season ever. 50K would be an achievement now.

        Fed (Bego)
        Enrique, Cuellar, Rangel (Hughes, Nelsen)
        Fellaini, Mata, Michu, Puncheon, Sessegnon
        Rvp, Berba (Suarez)

        I think it's a good team, biggest problem has been timing of my transfers.
        Players that I get rid - start scoring (Michu few weeks back etc, Tevez, now Ba) and players I get lose their form (Ba few weeks back, Berba..).
        Got Michu in this week, so 5th yellow is sure bet this gw.

          Firstly, stop thinking so negatively. I am not a fan of that attitude. 0FT's?

            🙂 sorry for that!
            No transfers left, next week plans are
            a) mata => bale or
            b) mata => walcott
            c) something else if bale is not fit and walcott does not impress this gw

    Sess orAJ...

    Everyone seems to be going for Sess, but of the two It seems he's the bigger Punt...

    They have both scored 27 points in the last 5 (form 5.4). The only real difference in points production is that AJ has returned attacking points in three of the last five (60 per cent), whereas Sess has produced in two (40 per cent). So, it seems AJ is 50 per cent more likely to bring attacking returns, but if Sess delivers, it's more likely to be a big haul...

    Thoughts?

      Think you've got it exactly right. I started out thinking Sess for sure. But I now am quite sure there is nothing between them. AJ more likely to be involved in a goal. Sess more likely to score. I'm not expecting huge things, but my gut is telling me to go with AJ.

      So you are probably best to go with Sess 🙂

      If i am going to captain a DGWer, it has to be the more explosive one.. I would not captain AJ

        But nothing from this year says Sess is more explosive. He is more of a goal threat, but AJ is more involved in Sunderland's offence. I honestly don't see a big difference. To me it is a coin toss. Really ... it is Sunderland. I'm not expecting explosive.

          You're probably correct. My opinion could be biased.

      To much math going on here haha.

      Football is too too unpredictable.

      If Fletcher plays then I'd probably prefer AJ as there will be someone to finish off his crosses but if he doesnt make it then I'd probably go Sess as the onus will be on him to be the man to step up and fill Fletchers goalscoring boots.

      As it is......I'm going for neither
