As we’re all very much aware, midfielders have been a real let-down this season for Fantasy managers thus far. Aside from Aaron Ramsey’s sensational displays for Arsenal, there have very few options for us to look upon as reliable assets – Adam Lallana’s recent rise to prominence has already persuaded over 78,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers to snap up the Southampton skipper, despite games against Arsenal, Chelsea, City and Spurs in the next six Gameweeks:

With this in mind, in this latest article for members, weβ€˜ve turned to the Custom Stats Tables feature in the members area and assessed the midfielders with the most impressive data over the last four Gameweeks. For the purposes of this table, and in order to include some of the standout players across key categories, we set the bar to ensure each of our 16 candidates registered a minimum of 5 shots, 5 chances created, 2 shots on target and 1 shot inside the box between Gameweeks 8-11.

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

      As a 12 year old he is almost certainly more tech savvy than you and everyone else older than him, unfortunately, so you probably just found the tame stuff because he wanted you to find it.

    Ozil, Lallana, Morrison, Barkley, Townsend,

    Giroud, Suarez, Rooney..

    1.4m in the bank.. 2 FT..

    Two options I'm considering..
    A.Townsend- Sessegnon this week.
    Next week Ozil - Walcott and upgrade Wilson. (I could make the wally switch this week too)

    B. Plan to get Aguero in.
    Ozil- Walcott and Walker- downgrade. (Keep Wilson as he is 5th def)
    Then bring in Aguero for Giroud the week after. This would mean keeping Townsend. ( failed to perform)

    What would you do?
    Thanks a lot..

          I was considering the same thing agua. i did my transfer already to rooney over the short term Remy thing. So i guess i have to say just get rooney. but i was so tempted to get remy in so i understand. i think getting remy could obviously pay off, only thing that stopped me is that rooney can still score big the next couple of weeks and is better long term.

        My thought process ATM is I'm contemplating between 3 options really:

        A) save transfer this week (keep Lukaku)
        B) get Remy short term then swap to Rooney (no Walcott) downgrade Coutinho to fund it
        C) get Remy long term and get Walcott next week for Coutinho (no Rooney)

        Does that make sense?

          Remy is tempting short-term, I agree, and I am looking at him. Though I just don't think he's in the same league with Lukaku / Benteke...but could be a brilliant short-term pick. I like B the most because I think Coutinho is horrible and Rooney is great.

              I know, but I meant more as a player...I just don't think he is in the same league with Benteke / Lukaku. Maybe he's been on a striker's streak and if we get on hopefully it lasts a bit. Newcastle are also such an unreliable team.

                Pepin i have been following Remy for a while. i remember years ago i stumbled across him on Fifa when he was at marseille, and i scored a hatrick with him. i sort of followed him after that and i think his got it in his to match lukaku and benteke. different sort of player obviously but i think he can match them. its more newcastle i worry about.

                I'm talking from a fantasy perspective, not real life of course.

                Newcastle are in great form ATM and I think we're overlooking them.

                They beat Chelsea and Spurs, and also tied Pool. They are 3pts back of ManU, Spurs and 2 Pts back of City.

                Remy is their main threat up front and could well come good fantasy-wise

        There's still Silva - which I will transfer to Sess methinks. Will get Hazard the week after..

        And also there's Lukaku. Which I'm stll not sure to whether hold or do one of these transfers above.

        Remy looks like gonna do well in the next 3 fixtures. Before I transfer him out to Rooney.
        But Rooney give me a good captain choice this week (altho I have Suarez and Augero), and I safe a FT to bring him in later.

        And 1m mark is definitely not a great place to be in.

          Totally and respectfully disagree! On 2 Levels.

          1. He is the inferior of the 2 when it comes to class
          2. Sturridge will always play second fiddle to Suarez interms of FPL. Pointless to have both striker spots taken by a liverpool forward.

            Yeah, having both strikers can be risky, but it's been quite consistent in terms of results until the last two games. An injury to Sturridge against Germany would help my decision-making ten fold!

        Hazzy - Saurez is unpredictable in a derby, hatrick or redcard is equally likely.

        Reckon Kun at home is the safest bet but then Spurs dont ship many goals......

      Team is looking solid, a lot more than most. Would consider shipping out Lukaku as having Liverpool Man Utd and Arsenal in his next four is hardly ideal, but 2. leaves you with a lot of flexibility so I'd probably hold.

          I'm a hazard owner and I'm confident he will play. However we simply do not know as to whether there will be any repercussions to his comments. The potential is there though and when you couple that with other factors like sideways move and knee jerk the answer is simple. Don't do that trade.
