While Sunday brought a rather tepid conclusion to the weekend’s action, the lack of incident allowed us more time to digest the numbers behind the Gameweek so far. In this latest foray into the depths of our members data, we offer further insight on the performances of Adel Taarabt, Raheem Sterling and David Silva not only for this weekend, but the last four Gameweeks and season so far. As for Glen Johnson, well, we’ll let the numbers do the talking…
-
Bego - Foster
Mertesacker - Enrique - Cuellar - Fonte - Nelson
Mata - Michu - Fellaini - Lennon - Sterling
RVP - Suarez - Fletcher
1FT.....
Fell and Lennon TO Punch and Silva? -4 pt hit
(Fletch to Berba next week)
What do you guys think?Open Controls-
You could just do Fellaini to Ya Ya for no hit City cover. But at the same time, when you see Silva in your team come Saturday, you'll feel all fuzzy inside. Do it.

Nathan Baker vs Ciaran Clark on the comparison tool 😯
I don't think I've ever seen such a one-sided result 😯Open Controls-
Last 4 gameweeks.
Open Controls -
I know...Baker is outstanding
Open Controls-
But that is just a plain ridiculous thrashing.
Open Controls-
err...who comes out on top?
Open Controls-
Baker. 97% 😯
Same game time.Open Controls-
What does that mean? 😯
I was being sarcastic...I thought Clark would have been way on topOpen Controls-
It means in the list of stats, Baker has better stats in 97% of the categories. The only stat Clark leads is pass completion % 😯
Baker sh!ts all over him in the other stats.Open Controls

Do we think he might keep his place when Vlaar is back? He's been excellent right?

Open Controls-
Indeed. Clark's the better option they say...
Open Controls-
I did Clark > GJ for -4 this week and was sh*tting bricks when it was 0-3 😆
I reckon Lowton is the best route into the AVL defence. Their midfield lacks width and the wingbacks provide it at most times. See Lowton's average positions in the last 3-4 GWs. Impressive.Open Controls-
I have fond memories of Lowton 😀
Bit out of my budget though. I want to get
Bego Tremmel
Rafael Nelsen Shorey Baker Hughes/Jones
Bale Mata Michu Sterling Puncheon
RVP Rooney Suarez
😀Open Controls-
😯 I quite like that!
Looking to get rid of Giroud soon myself! 😳Open Controls-
I hope he doesn't bite me in the arse like all my other transfers recently (sorry 😉 )
It's also tight in my La Liga H2H with Empirikal. He has Shorey and Giroud left, I have Shorey and Santi...Open Controls-
Not asking for too much. A brace will do 😉
I'm in the relegation zone in the Bundesliga! 😳Open Controls

EVERYONE BUY TORRES!!!
WE'RE ALL GOING ON A TORRES HOLIDAY!
🙂Open Controls-
I might have figured you'd be around when I got back... 😉
Open Controls-
Now there's a familiar face... where've you been Zep?
Open Controls-
Meditation retreat for 10 days... completely isolated location, beautiful surroundings...
I was learning and practising Vipassana meditation and the results have been staggering... it is completely free from any sect, cult, or religion... completely universal...
It is the same technique that was the original teaching of Gotama the Buddha, before it was lost to India for centuries for several reasons... luckily some monks in Burma managed to retain the knowledge and keep it's purity of practice in tact...
My teacher Goenka, who is from Burma, was the man responsible for bringing it back to India...
Feel so much better for the experience, really opened my eyes to the possibilities of understanding the cause or misery in the world...
I have taken a few more steps on my path to liberation.. 😀Open Controls-
😯 Wow...good for you. That sounds very relaxing and enlightening...my technique lately is drink loads of peppermint tea...it's good for the soul 🙂 but that's because I know no buddhas 😉
Open Controls -
My wife did Vipasana in Canada.
Look up an app called Insight Timer if you need a little help with your practice, I've been using it for about six months now.Open Controls -
Wow. You have really gone into one .... Ever heard of Chinese whispers?? Well , since Gotamas original teachings were handed down by word of mouth and never put down in writing for many many centuries after he died what you were taught on ur little excursion would have probably been nothing remotely close to what this obese man taught..... His original teachings may have been something like this for all we know..." "Farting is the key to relief". Chinese whisper that puppy for a thousand years and you get what you were taught.
What ever floats your boat tho right?Open Controls

He only scores when he wants, wasn't bothered yesterday
Open Controls

I might do it. He'll always play, score a couple of goals, and a differential over the christmas period
Open Controls

RVP+Giroud to Tevez+Aguero for a hit?
City will score at least 3 goals against reading.
I have Silva too. Buy back RVP the next GW.
Big Risk. But tempting. Thoughts?Open Controls-

I guess rotation may bite me 🙁

You should do it. Things like that are so awesome. Imgaine if it worked. You will actually feel, and will be the man. And remember, world ends so meh.
Open Controls-
I do not lose money on RVP as I just brought him back in a few weeks. Oh Well, this move may well be done on Sat 11:29, not for now 😀

If i Bring in Tevez, Mancini will play Aguero+Balo and bench Tevez.
If i Bring in Aguero, Mancini will play Dzeko+Tevez
😆Open Controls-
So moral of the story is...get Silva.
Open Controls -
Atleast you will have one that plays 😉 . You actually should do it. If it doesnt work, oh well, nice try. If it does, fuk yea, im the man (and a lot of points 😉 )

needs -150%
Open Controls -
-
Is it true he's only on -57% and to monitor his drop on TotalFPL rather than FISO?
Open Controls-
TotalFPL is pretty bad in general so I never go on there. FISO is mostly spot on and just don't bother to change the totals for players on orange flags for some reason. Just keep in mind that when on an orange flag players need -150% to drop.
Open Controls-
Ya but someone posted FISO did not take into considerations that Bale was flagged..
Open Controls-
Normal yellow flags don't change anything. Orange flags increase the NTO requirements but FISO don't bother to change it for some reason. Most who use the site know that orange = -150% and they are wayyyyyy more accurate that TFPL in general so you're better of using them.

when will Fellani's ban come into play?
Open Controls -
Zep.. welcome back.
Nice to see you're on a green 🙂Open Controls-
Hey Acqua, how are you?
I wasn't even in full control of my team for the last two weeks, I handed my team over with instructions to my little brother to take the reigns for me while I was away...
Just got back to see that my Cuellar punt worked out quite well, I'm glad I was not around to watch that last game... 94th minute, would have been ripping my hair out...
Hoping for some more of those green arrows, certainly desperate to get a bit of respectability back...Open Controls-
I think you should let your brother take over permanently 😛
Open Controls-
Yeah Zep your brother is way better than you clearly 🙂
Open Controls -
😆
Open Controls -
Hahah I think your right, Billy...
Or maybe my recent break has set in motion a revival of epic proportions...
I'm living with better vibrations now... 😉Open Controls-
Good to hear. Green arrows ahead 🙂

Which of these 3 would you have until the Jan w/c?

3) ClyneOpen Controls -
Just did Enrique + Fellani -> GJ + Taarabt. As they say, Yolo, and the world's gonna end soon
Open Controls -
The forward-line of the future.
RVP - Aguero - Torres
Commiserations to anyone who doesn't have this by next week...I'm afraid you will be left far behind 😉Open Controls-
that will leave me with a crap midfield

Foster / Jaaskelainen
Jose Enrique / Cuellar / Rafael / Shorey / Shawcross
Mata / Cazorla / Sterling / FELLIANI / Michu
Suarez / Rooney / Ba
£0.5 salary left over, 1 FT
A) Fellaini + Cuellar > Puncheon + ANY DEFENDER (Ivanovic/Baines/Zabaletta/Sagna...)
B) Felliani + Shawcross > Bale (if fit) + Fonte
C) Felliani > Puncheon
D) Felliani > Taraabt
E) Felliani > NasriOpen Controls -
Considering Cameron > Gibbs & Fellaini > Mata. Sound smart?
Open Controls -
Will Baker still be a regular when Vlaar is fit?

How do I get Puncheon on? Do I put him on? Everything else good?Open Controls-
Put him first sub and he'll come in for Bale 😉
Open Controls-
Will Bale not play? Knew I should have sold him when he got injured straight away!!
Open Controls-
I don't think he'll play to Villa personally (also Old School's opinion – spurs fan)
I can't see AVB risking him against Stoke where he has history with one Charlie Adam.Open Controls -
Even if he does play, a first game back from injury against Stoke? They'll batter him senseless.

Think I'm down to the below options this week - which do peeps think is the best one? Also bear in mind that I'll likely be WCing straight after GW21, so transfers from now on in are fairly short term....
A) Fellaini -> Yaya
B) Fellaini -> Nolan (leaves enough in the bank for Sess -> Michu next week)
C) Fellaini -> Puncheon/Sterling (leaves enough for Sess -> Bale/Mata next week)
D) Fellaini & Sess -> Mata/Bale & Puncheon/Sterling (4 point hit)
E) Save the transfer
Jaask, (Federici)
Enrique, Cuellar, Clyne, (McCartney), (Hughes)
Silva, Walcott, Sessegnon, Taarabt, (Fellaini)
RVP, Suarez, Ba
Bank 0.3m, 1 freebieOpen Controls -
Afternoon all
What do you reckon:
A) Young & Suarez
B) Pilkington & RooneyOpen Controls-
B
Open Controls -
If you have RVP, then probably A) but with a different midfielder (expect Young to suffer some rotation over the xmas schedule). Otherwise, I'd go B) with Taarabt if possible?
Open Controls-
Cheers guys.
Who's going to take Young's place?
I rather like Pilkman - he scored a fair few points for me last year and he's a real homeboy. Norwich have several home games on the horizon and seem to be in good form. Pilkman and Puncheon also rotate rather nicely.
I'm looking for a replacement for AfroClown and don't want to go down the Yaya road. Will think on't.Open Controls-
I think Fergie will give some gametime to Welbeck/Chico over Xmas. Also, Kagawa will be in the mix if he's back from injury (not sure on that one though).
Pilks is ok, but I prefer Snodgrass. Also, NOR have pretty grim fixtures for the foreseeable. I think there are better options - Taarabt rotates ok with Puncheon and his fixtures are better short term imo.Open Controls

what is the buy-back price of fellaini after he finished the ban ?
Open Controls -
A: Fellani >>> yaya/Lennon/Nasri
B: Fellani >>> snodgrass/dembele this week and sess >>> bale/silva/matanext week nt won’t have any city/chel/spur coverage this week then...or do both transfers now for a hit
C:Fellani + Enrique/Rafael >>> bale/silva/mata + Clark/Hughes
D: Fellani + berb >>> any mid upto 6 + Torres
E: Fellani + berb >>> punch + augero
Options C D E involve hits bt am leaning towards C and next week will do sess >>> LennonOpen Controls -
Which do you guys prefer?
Fella > Puncheon
Berbatov > Aguero
or
Felalini > Bale/Silva
?Open Controls-
The former. Had a feeling Aguero would score this week, and now that he has, i see many more very soon.
Open Controls -
Fellaini to Silva.
BTW, I already have the all-Spanish midfield. 🙂Open Controls-
Very nice my friend... 🙂 I assume you did Demps > Mata?
Open Controls

Fellaini > Silva, but i can only afford Yaya. =(
Open Controls

Hi all,
Is this worth a 4 point hit?
Fellaini + Defoe to Puncheon + Aguero?
Worthwhile getting Aguero over Tevez? Who do we think is more guaranteed gametime?Open Controls -
Sorry if this is going over old ground, but any idea why Bale didn't fall last night? FISO have him at well over 100%, and they're normally pretty accurate...
Open Controls -
If this defence was a chick and you saw her in a club what would your first thought be? 'Maybe I'll buy her a drink' or ' Kill it with fire'.
Baker, Ridgewell, Nelson, Davies, HughesOpen Controls-
If you mistake 5 blokes for a chick then you know you've had way too much to drink.....
Open Controls -
I'd tap that defence
Open Controls -
:-). If that was my defence, i'd tie it to a frisbee and throw it over a rainbow. Then Burn it, lock the ashes in a heavy steel safe, and bury it deep in the ocean bed.

I'd totally shag it.
