An upturn in form by Palace’s former Villa man and a certain enigmatic Bulgarian over at Craven Cottage come under the spotlight this evening. Tottenham’s improvement in front of goal and United’s faltering home form are also picked apart in our latest review of the statistics from the weekend and beyond:
Ridiculously optimistic prediction:
Liverpool will troll everyone by following up goals conceded to both Norwich and West Ham at home, by keeping a clean sheet at Spurs.
I'm forced into playing Migs and Skrtel 😐Open Controls
Possibly but I have had it with Liverpool for now.
Too much funds in mignelot and any other liverpool def (Except flanagan). There are cheaper options who are actually keeping cs right now who are in better form which I would rather haveOpen ControlsAlready done my FT, and have 3 Everton.
They can both stay for the Cardiff home game and then I'll find an escape route before City and Chelsea away.Open Controls
its key to remember spurs before these games were not scoring freely.
I think liverpool can shut them out.Open Controls
effectively 1FT
A) Migs to Howard
Or
B) Chico to Distin
For A)
1.Chico is suspended this game and I have Burner and Chester to cover his ban.
For B)
1. Migs has better fixtures than Chico therefor it would make sense to keep him.
2. Howard's on 4 yellows
So B)?Open Controlswhos your back up gk.... yes id say b.
Open ControlsI've got a dud - Price from CYP
I suppose that goes in favour of A)Open Controlsyou could always just stick with mig. a is likely to get 8
b 2
i know only this week but still.
i think its a tough call but id be going for everton defender if i could afford it.
Howard is on the suspension tightrope after all.Open Controls
I think Chelsea will batter crystal palace. Bill beat man city at home, and I've been to last few man u villa encounters at villa, and thy been close

Open Controls
After tonight's game, is it probably safe to bring in Silva for Gerrard?
Open Controls
I have, slight risk but he came off before the end so it looks like he should play at the weekend
Open Controls
Is it worth getting red of Gerrard for a hit?
Open Controls
Hazard is 9.8 now? 😯
Wow, hadn't realise he rocketed so fast!Open ControlsOverpriced now
Open Controlsnot sure if he is, I think if he is picking up pts then he is worth it. Finding a mid who will score big is hard this season
Open Controls
over 8ppg in his last 8 matches. no midfielder has got close
Open Controls
Fer worth the extra 1.2m (soon to be 1.3m) over Redmond?
Open Controls
coutinho & negredo out to rooney & 7.3mil midfielder
best options at that price? i'm leaning towards mirallasOpen ControlsAm I all set, what do we think of this team?
Howard
Chester - B. Turner - Ridgewell
Nasri - Oscar - Ozil - RavMo
Lukaku(c) - Rooney(vc) - Suarez
------ Barkley - Vlaar - Chico
1.3itbOpen ControlsI should stop replying to posts and giving advice..
.. MUTINY !Open Controlshere you go so 🙂
is nasri safe? worth transferring out? maybe shift to ramsey or mirallas (gamble) & upgrade cheaper defender?
ps side note: going on name alone, do you play PES?Open ControlsI have the money to upgrade to silva once I think he's safe from injury and in form.
I haven't played PES for about 10 years but that's where my username originates from yesOpen Controlscool, sounds like you've a plan anyway.
thought so, was just wondering if you still played, was gonna recommend a siteOpen Controls
who plays pes anymore lol I used to be a hardcore pes player but quit on it last year and fifa is the bomb and there is no going back at the moment.
Open Controls
nasri v arsenal? i wouldnt remove he will be pumped against his former club
Open Controlstrue I guess

Hazard-Ramsey-Ozil-Gerrard
Who is the best sub for Gerrard ?
a) Silva
b) Oscar
c) Coutinho
d) YayaOpen Controlsif fit oscar
Open Controls
Szczesny
G. Johnson, Ivanovic, Zabaleta (Baker, Chester)
Mirallas, R. Morrison, Ramsey, Hazard (Pozuelo)
Aguero, Giroud, Suarez
1.1 in the bank. 2FT
Ivanovic, Giroud to Distin, Rooney (C)...
Any other suggestion?
Thanks!Open ControlsIf you can do the same trade but with GJ instead jump on that
Open ControlsI can't do that... Possible option is Zabaleta, Giroud to Distin, Rooney (because Chelsea have better fixture than Man City), but I thin that first option is better long - term plan (Ivanovic to Distin) because Ivanovic is near suspension, his price getting lower and I have last patience and confidence in Chelsea defence...
Open Controls
how many mins did silva play tonite?
Open Controls73
Open Controls
Really stuck on
redmond/fer
and which 3/4 to pl
Zab Terry Ridewell yanga whittakerOpen ControlsI have 2 options this week to bring in until the wildcard.
Hazard or Rooney?Open ControlsMy preference is Rooney
Open Controls
As an owner or both, I say Hazard. Simply because there is no midfield equivalent of Lukaku (I.e. a reasonably priced player bringing in consistent retirns)
Open ControlsI have hazard (thinking capt this week) & i'm trying to fit rooney in.
who do you need to get rid of?Open Controls
Please help;
A) Oscar Silva Williamson
B) Coutinho Nasri GJ
Thanks!Open ControlsJust been looking through my mini leagues and realised how such a large proportion of teams above me have Yaya... Can't decide whether it is terrifying or just really encouraging.
Am I right in thinking that Silva coming back pushes him back and is therefore bad for his returns?Open ControlsAny chance of some transfer advice guys? Obviously need to lose Gerrard as a priority but would also like an Everton defender in. What would you do with this team?
Krul
Evans / MOlsson / Burner
Hazard / Sess / Ravel / Gerrard
Rooney (c) / Aguero / Rooney
Speroni / Kos / Jedinak / Baker
2FT, 0.2 in the bankOpen Controls
Marshall;
Terry, Coleman, Chester;
Ozil, Hazard, Sessegnon, Whittingham;
Suarez, Aguero, Lukaku (C).
Myhill; Chico, Bannan, Ward.
1FT, £0.0m.
I really want to do an Ozil -> midfield punt for one/two weeks but I know the smart/right thing would be to hold FT right? Someone talk me into a punt please, holding transfer is so boring! 😛 ^_^Open Controlshe does, but for this week i think it's fine to save the ft
Open Controls
My team for this week
Gazzaniga
GJ, Distin, Burner
Walcott, Oscar , Silva, Barkley
Aguero, Rooney, Suarez
Davis, ravel, Flanagan, Rosenior
Plans moving forward will be to replace GJ with kos and then ride out Flanagan until jan WCOpen Controls
Who are people thinking different teams need to sign over the Winter transfer window.
I wouldn't mind seeing Spurs lose Adebayor and sign a decent striker, City need to sign another decent defender, and Liverpool could probably do with a good attacking midfielder to rotate with Coutinho.
Word on the street is that Eto'o is off to the MLS next year so Chelsea might be back in the hunt for a striker, although you'd assume that Lukaku will return to the club and play regularly as of next season?
Arsenal maybe one more striker to reduce the load on Giroud, Everton look pretty good, West Brom to replace most of their team?Open Controls
Who won the beach tournament?
I can't find the article.Open Controls

There's a shift amongst the essential players every season and I think it is nigh,
With Gerrard out injured with Sturridge, Suarez is going to suffer majorly. Could well be time to get rid and go RVP and beat the posse to it. Could easily work out well over the next 4 weeks.
Ramseys season is also CLEARLY over with Walcott back too ( 🙂 ) KEEP HIM AT YOUR PERIL!!!!
Revenge of the Regular coming to a gw near you.......................................SOON
😯Open Controlsstopped reading after the part about selling suarez
Open ControlsYou are having a laugh aren't you?
Open ControlsHow many goals will Suarez score in the next 4?
Open Controls
You're absolutely correct! Go ahead, sell Suarez and Ramsey. We're right behind you. Promise.
Open ControlsDon't have Ramsey, enjoy the endless 2 pointers over Xmas, he's gonna be fun to own for the next month I imagine.
Open Controls
spoiler: suarez gets 16 points v cardiff to make up for 3 quiet games around it
Open Controls
Sticky this post. Quality!
Open Controls
have you ever seen suarez play? or atleast any of his goals? not many of them are because of sturridge or gerrard.. he wont suffer one bit.
Open ControlsMentallist
Open Controls
I have Kelvin Davis and Gazzaniga in goal
Thinking if trading one of these keepers + Glenn Johnson
for Howard + Ward
For a 4-pt hit (need to decide tonight before price goes up)
(1) Worth it given Everton's run of fixtures?
(2) Who do I trade? Davis or Gazzaniga?Open Controls
What is the % Chance Mirallas starts on saturday?
Maybe Pienaar out (hopefully)?Open Controls
Can you be removed from a mini league? A guy at work says hes removing me because i refused to play his stupid game of captaining a midfielder in the city arsenal game this week!!! making up stupid rules to try and catch me lol
