Having cast an eye over the Defenders yesterday, we roll out the second in a three-part members series with a look at midfielders. Assessing the key attacking statistics, we analyse the chief creators and major goal threats over the first three Gameweeks of the season.

This CL game. Captain swaps? Whats that about?
Must go Ronaldo and Messi and always captain the Tuesday one then flip if it looks bad surely?Open Controls-
That is correct however, it's not as great as it might sound.
Hard to swap your captain after he nets you "only one goal"...Open Controls

This whole Ozil chasing women sotory is ridiculous.
1) our media have jumped upon it because it sells compies without legitamet sources.
2)I hate Real Madrid!Open Controls -
Evening men,
No idea what trade if any to make.Open Controls-
dzeko -> giroud seems obvious
Open Controls-
not enough money for it
Open Controls

That's Ok. I know what I'm going to do.
Open Controls -
looks fine
since you're sitting on a free transfer to spare, might consider Jedinak to JWP for the price rise, but really, pointless fidget, and you'll be in a better shape after next week's internationals to react to any injury newsOpen Controls -
Think i can get a route to rvp, and losing éden in the process

FFS CHAMPIONS LEAGUE OF LEGENDS
For headbutting Lionel Messi 15-7 in the finals and prevailing amongst 40 nominations, the title goes to....
ZINEDINE ZIDANEEEEEEE!
Thank you everyone for participating....it was an extremely close fought and controversial tournament.Open Controls-
I bet Cantona would have kung-fu kicked us for making him lose out to Bergkamp, while Pele and Maradona for not making it to the semi-finals just shows the footballing quality we've been blessed with.
Open Controls-
It shows that people here are poor judges of quality.
Open Controls

Hmm. Not sure I agree wth that.
Still love Zizou. Has anybody seen the film made about one of his matches? So graceful.Open Controls-
That Zidane vs Maradona quarter-final clash was almost a near final

Does Materazzi get a special nook in Zinedane's place in your museum then?

According to this Article (and the one before it about the defenders) our back and midfield 5 should be close to
Coleman, Zab/Johnson/Evra, Dawson, Wilson (4.0 or 4.5)
Walcott, Fer/Barkley/Prowse, Michu, Mirallas, HBA
With Migs and a 4.0 keeper that should leave most of us with between 25-27 million for our front three...
I've gone for Evra and replaced Dawson with Vertongen with a front 3 of Giroud, Sturridge and Welbeck (to be replaced with Bent after CPL game)
Was just messing around when I started but the more I look at it, the happier I am with it....Open Controls-
Article said nothing about a non-playing keeper.

Mignolet | Davis
Zabaleta | | Coleman | Walker | Vidic | Chambers
Lampard | Walcott | Ward-Prowse | Brady | Hernandez
Soldado | Sturridge | Benteke
On WC £2.2m in the bank
Any changes?Open Controls-
What's the cash for?
Open Controls -
Chambers -> Chester.
You don't know if Chambers is nailed in the long term and Chester is. Also, early on the Hull defence is looking quite solid.Open Controls -
Wildcard team = RVP.

U need to downgrade walker and vidic and upgrade soldado to RVP

If you thought the CL clashes were big who do you think would win this one?
Aleksandar Kolarov vs Guy Demel
Vote away.Open Controls-
Kolarov
he's a nutter and he takes a mean free-kick
what does Demel have?Open Controls -
Kolarov is probably more effective but I think in 20 years time we'll look back and say Demel was more influential in re-shaping the way the game was played.
Open Controls -
Demel all day for me

Champions League Fantasy game, I'm finding you can get the strongest overall lineup using a 4-3-3.
If playing, give it a try. Can fit 3 premium strikers, 2 premium mids, 1 questionable mid, and 4 good defenders on strongest clubs that are in weaker groups.Open Controls-
Best value at midfield IMO
Im going all cheap mids
5 top defenders
3 top strikersOpen Controls-
5-2-3? Extreme, but maybe it'll work. Feeling better with 4-3-3
Atletico (Kobenhaven)

b) Lamela & Ward-Prowse

Mignolet, Boruc
Vidic Collins Koscielny Chester Coleman
Lampard Ben Arfa Nani Walcott Hernández
Sturridge Soldado Giroud
My WC team.
Any changes?Open Controls-

The next? I feel you need to downgrade Arfa as he's the next in line for the bench and that's too much to be just sitting there, imho.

Ronh in relation to your question, I can tell you one thing, it's not the Aussie.

Keep going around and around on which one of these has to be removed from my team - Coutinho, Silva, Soldado. Only one needs to leave.... stuck!
Open Controls-
Silva, take your profits
Open Controls -
If someone held a gun to my head and told me I had to remove Coutinho or they'd shoot, I still wouldn't remove him.
Open Controls-
why the reluctance?
Open Controls -
-
Why? I'm 119th.
Open Controls

Get rid of Coutinho he's more likely to drop in price
Open Controls-
not happening before next game
Open Controls-
Never said it was... he's far closer to a price drop than the other two and still dropping at a quicker rate
