The Numbers Game – Festive Form – Forwards

Having indulged in the numbers behind the top ten individuals in Defence and Midfield, we end our series of articles for members by examining the top performers over the Christmas period amongst the forwards.

Just as Steven Gerrard dominated in the midfielders bracket over the Christmas period, Luis Suarez reigned supreme amongst the strikers. With five goals and two assists making him the most profitable forward on show, surpassing even Robin Van Persie’s FPL returns in the same window.

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

    Just thought I'd pop in, as I haven't done a picture post in a while. First, it is likely that there will be none for the next couple of weeks, until this batch of exams is out of the way, there may be the odd one here and there, but it is unlikely.

    Also, for anyone who cares, the tickets I was given from the EA Sports league were for Liverpool vs Norwich, obviously would have wanted a bigger game, but no complaints given the fact that I got them for free.

    Lastly, instead of a picture, I'll put a video today, simply because you get more nice views than you would from just a picture, so here is one of the Yosemite National Park, USA

          7 goals and 7 assists in 14 games is pretty good for an 'ineffective' striker 😉 He's been injured a lot of this season. United are a ton better this season compared to last, Vidic returning is slowly solving the defence, and no GK rotation rubbish

    So, has anyone seen anything official to say Cech could return this GW, or is it just a reaction to Turnbull's performance last night?

    Would you stick with Turnbull or twist with Azpi?

      "Petr Cech strained an adductor muscle at the top of his leg during the away game at Everton on 30 December and is expected to be out for two to three games. "

      http://www.chelseafc.com/injury-news

      2 to 3 games is just about up now so it doesn't sound like it was a very serious injury.

    Help needed. In the words of David Bowie, I'm an absolute beginner, RMWCT please:

    Federici, Bunn
    Harte, Luiz, Gibbs, Demel, Stam
    Bale, Mata, Michu, Fellaini, Walcott
    Suarez, Ba, Ruiz

    Is it really so necessary to sacrifice this to include RVP????!!!!!

      Prefer Noble. Plays every game (Britton gets occasional rest), is on pens and some corners.

    Hi everyone.

    Two alternatives, what do you think?
    A) Nelsen, Morrison --> Azpilicueta, Puncheon
    B) Nelson, Morrison, Garrido --> Azpilicueta, Marveaux, Gibbs (-4)

    Not sure about Marveaux getting game time any more now that the big guns are almost back to fitness. He is dirt cheap!
