A goal in each of the last couple of Gameweeks has brought Andros Townsend onto Fantasy radars over the international break. Since arriving on loan at Loftus Road, the winger seems to have firmly established himself as a key member of Harry Redknapp’s first-team – starting five of the last six matches, he has also chipped in with a pair of assists and received six bonus points in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game, averaging 6.6 points per game. In this latest article for members, we take a look at the underlying Opta statistics to see how he’s been performing and examine whether he really is a viable target for the fifth midfield slot in our squads.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Have a really lob sided team at the moment and feel like I'm losing momentum after getting bringing down the gap from my leader to 40 from over 100;

    Bego / fed
    Shaw / Baines / Harte / Rafael / Turner
    Gerrard / Bale / Michu / Walcott / Noble
    Suarez / Lambert / Sturridge

    2.6 in bank. Thinking of doing Harte and Noble to Mertersacker and Sidwell for -4? This sound good? Unfortunately it still leaves me with 3 Pool players, Walcott and Michu...
