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.

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

    Morning all

    A quick question if I may:

    Do we think that Danny Welbeck is a guaranteed starter now that RVP is out?

          That's what happened when RVP was injured previously. And Kagawa was ill at the weekend, so it didn't happen then.

          If Welbeck blanks, Hernandez could easily get a game or two.

          So no! 😀

    I suppose it goes back to, get the cheapest nailed on option, but I'm amazed that no one has mentioned Jussi as a potential keeper option

    He's now nearly 0.5 less that Howard, has the same number of CS, more saves and has conceeded 19 goals, in comparison to Howard's 15. He's also got 7 BAPS, compared to Howard's 3

    I already got Howard in, so it may be one to look at on wc, but if anyone was looking at selling Migs, just putting his name out there

    Currently have a very weak midfield:

    Have a fair bit of money in the bank though.

    Is it worth taking a hit to do Sessegnon to either Walcott/Yaya/Silva? If so, who?

    I was at work today and was talking to 2 guys whom I know to say hello to maybe once a week when I see them.
    We talked about Suarez, AVB etc. and the first guy tells me he had Suarez Captain and he was delighted with himself, ranked 1.5k, and found FFS this season.
    I congratulated him and told him about TFPL for price changes too and he was very thankful and wrote it down on his hand!

    The second guy joined in the conversation at this point. He had Suarez Captain too. He said he hadn't checked his rank yet today but he hoped to be in the 20's.

    I told him 20k was excellent. He told me, no, the actual 20's.

    I know his name so I immediately checked on my iPad.

    There he is. Ranked 20th in the world. WC played in GW6 and only made 3 transfers. No hits all year. And he was calm as you like about it.

    Is he the ultimate casual? Or was he epic trolling me?

    I have now decided I hate him and will avoid any more casual footy chats with him at all costs.
