With the frantic festive period now behind us, we can finally take stock and assess the statistics over the last few matches. Having last looked at the data in Gameweek 17, we have three sets of matches to investigate – Arsenal’s midfield, Tottenham’s attack and United and City’s frontmen are all placed under the microscope this time around:

    Getting Kos in this week disrupts my plans as I'd hoped ti have 2 FTs for GW23 (unlikely if Kun is fit and ready in GW22). But if I wait until wc he'll be 6.0 or more at this rate. Might be best to just bite the bullet and get him now before the price rises.

    But for Evans (and play Ki (ful)

    or Clyne (and bench Ki)

        It's a tough one.

        Burner vs a toothless West Ham looks like a sound choice atm. United have also been conceding in every other game. What do you think?

      I would put Evans above Pozuelo, in fact I would play him over Burner

      I would give it a 5/10 for the following reasons.

      Your GK will not get you points most weeks and you really need a good rotation if you get 2 budget GK.

      Your defence is missing best points scorer [Coleman] and if you plan on 2 premium defenders and rotating other 3 then you have spent too much [i.e. Evans], one of them rarely plays and the other two don't have good rotation potential

      Your midfield is probably your strongest area although you should get rid of Pozuelo as he does not play that often and only usually comes off the bench.

      Your strikers would have been good a few weeks ago but Rooney seems to be carrying an injury which could limit his gametime and Moyes is playing him out of position as well. Negredo has a poor record of scoring away from home and his recent points haul has been poor.

          I think he's being overly negative, picking out faults instead of its strengths. Your team is much better than 5/10.

      In that case, might as well just get Chamakh

    Getting more and more tempted to wildcard. Team is in decent shape but I'm ranked 400k at the minute, miles behind my ml leader. Worried about falling even further behind at the minute. My team is

    Mannone (Lewis)
    Kos, Chester, Distin (M.Olsson, Ward)
    Hazard, Silva, Wally, Cabaye (Sterling)
    Suarez, Rooney, Negredo

    1FT, .3 in the bank so not too much to work with. Considering Cabaye > Eriksen but it feels sideways. Negredo also looked poor last time out and I'm worried about his minutes despite Newcastle's mini-defensive crisis. Any opinions on my team are welcome, I know in my head I don't need to wildcard but having 3 guys in the same match in the week which many rivals are wildcarding is worrying.

    I have my (5-team) draft league’s mid-season re-draft coming up on Sunday, and I’m putting together my master player rankings.
    I’m currently 1st place, giving me the 5th/6th/15th/16th/etc. picks of the snake draft. Given the ~100m FPL budget, value per point is also a major consideration.

    1 Suarez
    2 Aguero
    3 Rooney
    4 Walcott
    5 Hazard
    6 Lukaku
    7 Silva

    33 Rodriguez
    34 Evra
    35 Walker

      I would group them by position for starters as you it is possible that you end up with a terrible attack and midfield but have an amazing defence and GK.

      Just pick your top 15 strikers, top 25 midfielders, top 25 defenders and top 10 GK.

    Which of these sounds more appealing?
    A) Cabaye and Baker > Colback and Kosc for free, next week do Chester > Evans
    B) Cabaye and Baker > Colback and Kosc for free, next week do Clyne > Nastasic

      You'll buy Evans before an away game at Chelsea? 😯

    I'll have to keep Rooney I think

    Need to prioritise getting Kos in before his price soars by the time I come to wc and unless he's confirmed out v Swansea I can't see it being worth a hit to swap to Welbeck

    I haven't the funds or FTs to get an Arsenal defender in, just yet.
    But they will concede against Villa, won't they? So I won't miss the boat.

      It's less about the points, more about the price you'll pay later

        Yes, good point. Either way, I'll have to wait until after the FA Cup game.

      Hmm... I'm not so sure.

      I am thinking bout using my FT to get rid of Dzeko and getting an Arsenal defender in next GW. But there is something telling me to just get a Arsenal defender now.

    How many considering Vertonghen at the WC? On the verge of dropping back below 7 and new Spurs look better.
