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:

People who irritate me most:
1) Gary Barlow
2) Michael Buble
3) Nick GrimshawOpen ControlsHave 1FT and trying to love the Gerrard conundrum. Just saw that I have 9.0 to play with so this rules out Wally/Silva. Viable option that comes to mind is Oscar.
Any other thoughts?
Have Hazard/Ravel/Rambo/PozueloOpen Controls
You're pickled
Open Controls
Play Rambo or Ravel? Have Ozil in lineup (if that makes any difference).
Open Controls
Who do you think will be captained more this week, Aguero or Suarez?
Open ControlsOverall I'd say Suarez. He's been in more consistent form despite a debatably worse fixture.
Open Controls
Suarez, although I'm going for Lukaku ... good differential in what should be a 3-0 win over Fulham!
Open Controls
TBH, Fulham look a different team the last 2 weeks. Not sure this will be an Everton walkover.
Open Controls
You could be right, but I see Everton bossing this one. I also predicted Arsenal - Everton would be something around 3-3. Guess the crystal ball needs a tune-up.
Open Controls
mertasacker or turner
Open Controls
Ozil or Ramsey?I'm only allowed to choose one. Thanks

GW 16 points prediction?
Howard
B. Turner - Chester - Ridgewell
Nasri - Oscar - Ozil - RavMo
Lukaku(c) - Rooney(vc) - Suarez
------ Barkley - Vlaar - ChicoOpen Controls
hard to put a points prediction on a team considering the possibilities for scores. My guess would be 55-65.
Open Controls
Good to go?
Howard
Terry Chester McAuley
Ozil Ramsey Redmond Morrison
Aguero Suarez Rooney
Lewis Amalfitano Bardsley Williams
0.5m, 1FT.
Thanks.Open Controls
I was just browsing the ranks in my country and I've seen something different and I don't get it.
Is it possible that his global league is in my country and his nationality (the flag under the Transfers & Finance box) is different?
Because I thought if, for example, you are in the England global league then the flag under the Transfers & Finance box would be the Flag of England as well..Open ControlsMaybe if they change country of residence after the season has started? Just a guess.
Open Controls
You can change your country of residence, but it doesn't change your global league.

I'm getting this feeling that Everton are going to get into trouble with their 'easy' fixtures, I seem to remember them losing quite a few they should not of over the recent seasons. They look like a new Everton though so hopefully it's just a fans pessimism.
Open ControlsI personally don't see any reason why they shouldn't keep doing well, especially with the increased presence of Deulofeu on the pitch. They just have too much firepower to stutter too much.
Open Controls
does anybody knows why I can't make substitutions in my cl fantasy team?
Open Controls
I am just guessing it's related to the postponed Galatarsary-Juve game. They might be figuring out how to make it equitable as a mid already has 3 points but played just 30 minutes. This will be interesting, well kind of interesting. I guess they are supposed to restart the game today, if the snow has stopped.
Open ControlsAnd all defenders and goalies on each of the two team have 6 points, so that 's not really fair to the rest of us, if the defender's score doesn't reflect the full game. So I wonder if they are trying to post a correct score, if someone wants to sub out a Juve/Gala player or post the correct score after the conclusion of the game, if you keep the player. That might be a programming challenge to get it right. I have Drogba and Vidal, which might be fairly common.
Open Controls
Want to ditch Migs or Glen Johnson. Who to bring in? I already have to 3 everton so I would have to ditch Barkley too to bring in Distin or Howard. Who to replace him with then? Any suiggestions?
Open Controls
You have Coleman already, so I'd say you don't need to get an Eve defender. I'd say someone cheap - Like a Palace defender. Not too sure about the keeper situation.
Open ControlsYeah. I'd be quite happy with 2 everton defenders til january. Cheapie like palace might be good too but not worth swapping out Glen Johnson for unless I have something to spend the cash on.
Open Controls
I brought in Lukaku. Sorry. Forgot that was only this week too haha
Open Controlswell i don't fancy you would take a hit just to bring in an everton defender and a 4th/5th mid
so it's either:
a) Downgrade GJ or Wilson or Migs
b) Downgrade Barkley ( well he's good not sure on game time is the only con i see.)
c) just Save it because i think you can field 11 and it's in good shape..Open ControlsYeah wont be doing I hit I think, but still want to do these transfers over the next couple of weeks, so it'd be nice to have an idea of what to do. And if one transfer will better should me this week then I'm all for it haha. Liverpool have Cardiff next week, so if I don't do the transfer this week, I probably wont do it next week either, so I might lose out on a free transfer there.
Open Controls
Team for the coming week is-
Migs,
Coleman, Terry, Burner
Ozil, Hazard, Oscar, Ramsey
Suarez, Remy, Lukaku(C)
Bench: Davis, Morrison, Dawson, Vlaar
0.5 ITB
Which move should i do?
A) Terry, Remy > Chester, Rooney(C)
B) Save
C) Any other suggestion?Open Controls
This is my draft league team for this week. I just need some help and advice on
a) Team choices
b) Captaincy
Mignolet
Coleman Terry Shawcross
Schurrle Redmond Hernandez Amaliftano
Crouch Hooper Deulofeu
Not used: Rat/Walcott/Mirallas/Brady/Lambert/Vertonghen/Bony
Thanks a lot....Open ControlsI can't. They belong to other players so I have to work with what's there.
Open Controls
I might punt at captaining Schrulle or go safer with Coleman or Terry.
Open Controls
I plan to double up on everton.
I have coleman
Will do Terry>Distin next week
then upgrade Mirallas to Silva for Fulham.
Good plan?Open ControlsSounds pretty good to me
Open Controls
Priorities?
1. Terry->Distin
2. Dawson->Distin
3. Ozil->Haz
4. Borat->Guzan (other gk is MyHill so perfect rot.)
Which tranny would you make from that l'll lot?Open Controls1. After Palace
Open ControlsI think 2. Rose is on his way back as is Vertonghen. I think Dawson's days are numbered. Such a slow coach.
Open ControlsPeople keep saying this though. Rose won't play CB and Vert plays alongside Daw. Plus he's still good value at 5 mill.
Open ControlsChiriches is looking decent though.
Open ControlsHe is a good player. Too bad about the broken nose. Anyways, I'm looking to round him up at some point.
Open ControlsBroken nose. I broke my nose going up for a header when I was twelve and carried on. What a big poof.
Open ControlsI hear ya. I got smacked with an extended arm when I was around 14 and broke my beak. Didn't much affect me that I can remember, but I don't think it was major. His may have been a real cruncher. It doesn't seem to be bothering him much, though, especially considering that he got a goal recently. It did keep him out of one match though and he's donning the plastic mask.
Open Controls
Vertonghen might be out for at least 4 weeks.
Open ControlsAnkle. I think Dawson is safe for a month or so at least.
Open Controls
Soldado as a differential. Thoughts? Would think he still have an important role to play
Open ControlsNot for a hit.
Open Controls
GW 16-20
Redmond (SWA sun FUL MUN cpl)
Fonte (new TOT car) + Ravel (WBA ful)
Which one will you go for? Thanks in advanceOpen ControlsDo you have Ravel currently?
Open ControlsYes. Regardless of choice I will play him vs Sunderland this week.
Basically it's either
Gerrard -> Redmond this week, Ravel -> Silva next week
or
Keep Gerrard and play Fonte this week. Gerrard - > Silva next week.Open ControlsAh I see. Think I'd prefer the additional FT in the latter scenario.
Open Controls

How did Silva look last night guys? Didn't get to catch the game.
Open ControlsI only saw some snippets of highlights and know that he scored. Seems he's fitting right back in without much of a problem.
Open ControlsThanks. he seems to be one of those that get back in to the flow right away. It's happened with his previous injury this season and last season as well. Hmm.
Looking to bring him in next week but would be for Ozil. Too big of a risk to bring him in this week for Ozil for a hit?Open ControlsMaybe. That's a tough one. I think he was subbed out early, so that bodes well for him starting at the weekend. I know that Yaya sat out today's match due to suspension, so he should play the full 90 this weekend. I picked him up. Probably would stay away from Silva for one more week, though you might miss out on price rises as others look to get him in. Ozil is playing well at the present, so might be wise to stick. Tomorrow is Arsenal's Champs League day, so I would at least wait until after that game is over in case any injuries or such occur.
Open ControlsThat's sound advice. Will wait in any case. Hesitant to shift Ozil as he could very well perform in the next 2 games.
However, his form in the previous 2 big games this season is worrying. He was kept extremely quiet against Liverpool and United. The same could very well happen this week.Open Controls
Are we all selling Suarez for RvP then, folks?
Open ControlsI sure wouldn't.
Open ControlsNo, why would you do that?
Open ControlsEveryone and their aunt's dog owns Suarez, he's killed it so far but only against lesser teams and now his fixtures stiffen, and RvP is well, RvP. Could be the kind of brilliant move that saves one's season 😉
Open Controls
lol
Open ControlsIf you had to captain either one or the other for the weekend, who would it be?
A) Coleman
or
B) TerryOpen Controls
tempted to do Coutinho>Silva instead of Hazard.. anyone else?
Open ControlsI'd hold off on David S, just coming back from injury, playing a sturdy Arsenal team. I am eyeing him next week.
Open Controlsnot saying i should this week tho. if im getting Silva it's gonna be nxt week, therefore save a transfer this week, and have 2 ft next week. use it on Coutinho>Silva.
Open ControlsWell, as worthless as Coutinho is in FPL, he does have CAR next week, does he not? May be an inopportune time to pull the proverbial trigger.
Open Controls
2 free transfers, thinking Ozil and Gerrard to Hazard and Yaya/Silva, what do people think?
Open Controls
I wouldn't do it this week with Silva up against Arsenal.
Open Controls
If forced to captain either one or the other for the weekend, who would it be?
A) Coleman
or
B) TerryOpen ControlsTerry
Open Controls
Team is:
Migs
Burner, Terry, Zabaleta
Ramsey, Barkely, Morrison, Hazard
Suarez, Aguero, Remy
Subs: Lewis; Lallana, Walker, Rosenior
0 FT, 0.3 in bank
Anyone worth taking a hit for or am I set?
Cheers!Open ControlsLewis?
Open ControlsYeah, just a non-playing 4.0 GK. Backup for Marshall.
Open ControlsIt's getting late where I am at, so I had a brain lapse there.
Open Controls
Nevermind. Answered my own question. Not used to seeing that name around the Fantasy Prem realms. I'd say you're probably good to go. Would play Lallana over Barkley, however.
Open Controls
Who is Deulofeu most likely to replace? The obvious answer is Mirallas I imagine. However, what does Pienarr that Mirallas doesn't? I thought Mirallas was the greater threat.

10 years, 5 months agoOviedo or Barkley?
