With another seven days left until the deadline for Gameweek 4, there’s plenty time to ponder the numbers in our Members section. While some Fantasy managers still contemplate pressing the wildcard button, we take a look at some of the most notable attacking statistics on offer so far – in the first in a series of three articles, we begin with the defenders.
RMT Please
Mignolet - Boruc
Zabaleta Coleman Coloccini - Collins Chester
Walcott Oscar Hernandez Silva
Sturridge Giroud BentekeOpen Controls
Zabaleta to another defender starting with "C" and you're set... Just kidding, looks good! Who's your fifth midfielder?
Open ControlsBrady
Open Controls
Solid. Collocini is the one weak link here.
Open Controls

Open Controls

Good evening citizens
Always wondered why there's so much discussion about picking your WC team. I'd like to eradicate any doubts and reveal my secret formula.
The most important thing is to pick the highest scorers every week.
- So pick the 11 highest scorers in GW4 and start them
- You should also have enough budget to also pick 4 top scorers in GW5. Leave them on the bench.

In hindsight, you should have known there was a new post, and not have had to repost this...
Amateur... 😉Open Controls
Simple is a word which could well apply to you skip!
Open Controls
You should never make a hindsight post when a new article is about to be posted, as the post will be lost at the bottom of the page and you'll have to repost it.
Open Controls
You'd never catch Captain Foresight making that mistake.
Open Controls
I was going to do this without using my WC.
Open Controls
zab n walks
Open Controls
vidic
Open Controls
Zab & Vidic
Open Controls
Zab and Vid. The Derby is a pain but besides from that they should be great. I've wild carded and my defence was pretty much the same as yours but with chambers instead of Chester.
Open Controls
Crazy stats from Coleman, not sure he'll keep it up though
Open ControlsOf course he won't. But he doesn't need to to justify his price.
Open Controls
Can Stan keep up this intensity?
Yes/ No.Open ControlsOscar or Lamps Long term?
Open ControlsLampard for me
- penos, FKs, corners
- less roatation for CDM position in CHE
- Jose loves himOpen Controls
is this team good for the GW4? Just 2 home players, and Clyne not even nailed on.
Mignolet
Zabaleta Mertesacker Clyne
Walcott (VC) Silva Snodgrass Lampard
Soldado (C) Giroud Sturridge
bench: Marshall - Kim - TurnerM - WardOpen Controls
Your team is similar to mine, I have 2 home players aswell, we will have to wait and see
Open Controls
I dislike asking for advice on this site and being completely ignored...
SighOpen ControlsCan I help?
Open ControlsI want serious-minded assistance... Not really in the mood for the tripe u posted earlier in the page.
Open Controls
I don't see a post asking advice, just a whining poster 🙂
Open ControlsFair enough... If u are serious about giving advice u can click on my profile and see the post i made before the whining post
Open Controls
When did dragons den become a freak show?
Open Controls
on WC, doing 5-2-3; i already have Zaba, Coleman, JEnrique
A--Merts + Collins + Lampard
B--Vidic + Walker (or Agger) + PHernandes
C-Vidic + Ivanovic + JarvisOpen ControlsA but a 5 2 3 may hurt you long term
a 433 or 343 would be betterOpen ControlsYou're getting a bit too carried away with the defence BP strategy my friend.
Open Controls
Whenever I see a RMT on here that has RVP in I almost always look at th 3rd, 4th and 5th midfielders to see where the sacrifice has been made
Open Controls4 Sure
Open ControlsThis. I can't put him in without hating the rest of my team.
Open ControlsIt's often Walcot + HBA + 3~5m mids. Can't help but feel WCing to a team like that will come back to bite you.
Open Controls2nd and 3rd in my mine.
Open ControlsWell said Wheato, I can now rest until after the games.
Open ControlsI look at the defence. That's where it's at.
Open Controls
Who is better footballer - Götze or Özil?
Open Controls- Open Controls
Well it's got to be the one who cost more 😉
Open Controlshttp://i.imgur.com/Bnayl2x.gif
shut up and take my moneyOpen Controls
Ozil is now but Gotze will be within a couple of years IMO (if he avoids injuries)
Open Controls
Battle of the Umlauts
Open Controls
Ozil I think.
I actually prefer Reus to GotzeOpen Controls
Weird that Sturridge has positive NTI today despite being flagged and ruled out of the next England game...
Open ControlsAnd Wally is -ve.
Open Controls
Tricky. Both great players.
Open Controls
hows this team looking for next GW
mignolet
coleman, collins, m turner
walcott, snodgrass, lampard, mirallas
giroud, rvp(c), sturridge(vc)
davis, chester, r morrison, brayford
holding off on wildcard for now and i reckon sturridge will be fit by thenOpen Controls
based on premier league form isnt ideal, should be more in defence but technically should be fruitful
Open Controls
Which WC team? basically whether or not to have RVP.....
Migs (Davis)
Baines Ivanovic Zab (Whittiker, Baker)
Nolan, Toure, Lamps, Brady (Barkley)
Soldado, Benteke, Giroud
OR
Migs (Davis)
Baines Ivanovic Collins (Baker, Whittiker)
Nolan, Toure, Hernandez, Brady (Barkley)
RVP, Benteke, Giroud
????Open Controls
Amoribieta or Hughes
Who is first choice when both are fit?Open Controlsamoribieta without doubt (A fulham fan) 😀
Open Controls
Seriously rubbish that FPL didn't classify Rose as a defender despite the fact that he played the whole season there last season and was quite obviously going to play there this year.
Open ControlsVery Coleman-esque
Open ControlsBlessing in disguise. Tottenham won't keep enough cleanies imo
Open ControlsEnough for what? All relative isn't it? We'd keep enough to have him at 5. Not at 6.5.
Open Controls
Sometimes I think we follow the game more closely than the makers of it.
Open ControlsYea I was thinking the same thing the other day, completely ridiculous.
Open Controls
Just watched Ronaldo's hat-trick form last night. Very underwhelming. Awful keeping for the first and third and a free header for the second. And against a NI team down to ten men. People on here can get very carried away at times...
Open ControlsYeah, the Ronaldo over Messi comments were hilarious

This was one of the better hattricks from the internationals this week.Open Controls
Hows this WC team, I'm contemplating downgrading one of my mids to get zaba/coleman in aswell
Mignolet - Lewis
Sakho - Kosc - Collins - Chester- B.Turner
Walcott - Silva - Lamela - Lampard - Ward Prowse
Sturridge - Benteke - GiroudOpen Controlsprobably my favourite team so far, i wouldn't downgrade mid as you current have 4 great players in mid and the top 3 strikers! good luck 😀
Open ControlsVery nice.
If you're going to do that I'd go with Silva, given his upcoming schedule. I'd also go for a Utd defender over either of those - again due to fixtures.Open ControlsNah thats a decent team, keep the faith with the premium mids, they'll come good soon. It's maybe a slight risk starting with Sakho and Lamela. Sakho - he'll be nailed on by Jan but Kolo could start the next few games as he settles. Lamela - maybe give yourself a couple weeks to assess him unless you're sure he'll be a success.
Open Controls
Excellent rally, Wawrinka missing the easiest one of point
Open ControlsOzil .Goetze hhas to eat lots of rice and beans to prov himself in same category as ozil
Open Controlsd. lopez (unknown 3.0 keeper)
d.alaba e.ambrose papadopoulis (koch *austra vienna) (Kucher * shakhtar)
fabregas ribery draxler isco (bruno *anderlecht)
RVP messi (capt) vela
thoughts?Open Controlssorry 😀 team please 😀
Open Controls
Who to Captain out of this Lot?
Sturridge Giroud Benteke
And Who to Start?
Brady or PHernandez
Coleman or Chester or ColocciniOpen ControlsWilson looks quite a bargain at 4.5 for an OOP Stoke defender
Sensing a massive GW6 bandwagon?Open Controls
10 years, 9 months agoMakes defenders look all the more tempting. Still not convinced that this trend will last though.
