A number of midfielders are placed under the spotlight, with Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Liverpool all serving up some strong statistics. The performance of United’s frontmen at Villa and Tottenham’s inability to find the net under the now-departed Andre Boas-Villa also come under analysis as we delve into the data.

    Seeing as this site supports The Sun Dream Team I will admit to a dark place in my brain that has fulfilled it's evil fantasy.
    I wished on here that Spurs defense would crumble. They have.
    I put forward that the only way I would make up significant ground would be if Aguero got an unfortunate injury leaving the beast to prosper. He did.

    I believe in Jesus Navas to become the later stage Ramsey of the prem. Yet to be confirmed.

    Ramires will need to keep tabs on Hazard and at last he gave me faith.

      I'm in exactly the same Aguero and Kosc and Clyne shaped boat.

      Rooney is the obvious choice to replace Aggy - except his numbers in this very article are worrisome.

        That's what I was thinking. Welbeck can do it when he gets good service and that's what Rooney seems to have been told to help provide! I can see him as a sneaky option. ML leader has Roonpig too and the 4m would certainly help, too!

          It would pain me to get Welbeck though. I think he's a fairly poor player and once I had that much spare cash in the bank I would inevitably spend it - and it would then be hard to get Aguero back in without further hits.

    Hernández / Hazard / Morrison / Ramsey / Oviedo
    Agüero / Rooney / Suárez

    1 FT, £1.6m in the bank.

    I am planning to do Aguero + P. Hernandez + Ivanovic -> Negredo + Walcott + Zabaleta for -8. Or should I do the P. Hernandez -> Walcott next week.

      Don't think you need Walcott this. Not for a hit anyway. As you have Ramsey would you not be better with silva? Should play in a more advanced roll with Aguero out?

      Flanagan and Chester. Cardif and a weak scoring West Brom team
