With Chelsea’s win at the Etihad bringing Gameweek 24 to its conclusion, we delve into the data once again. Stoke’s midfield goal hero, West Ham’s target man, United’s fit-again frontmen and the knock-on effect Liverpool’s downturn in possession has had on a certain Uruguayan all come under our analysis this time around:

    Resigned to a hit this week to sort out a badly malfunctioning midfield including Ozil, HBA + Janu. What do you guys think? Punty or safe.

    a) Safe option. Ozil + HBA âž¡ Mata + Lallana with a healthy 2 million ITB left over

    b) Punty option. Ozil + Ade âž¡ RVP + Mirallas. Diddly squat ITB and still with HBA + Janu.

      C - Ozil and HBA to Mata and Mirallas? Cash itb for sorting out Janujaz.

        Interesting - you think Mirallas would be a better shout than Lallana? I would have 2 million to upgrade Janu going down the Mirallas route?

          Tough call. Either one should be good, maybe Lallana now Mirallas later?

            Yep, thinking of that. Difficult to fit him in though if I have Silva, Mata, Lallana, Hazard and a cheapy. Perhaps a Silva replacement for a few weeks.

        I think he's a relatively certain starter..think he was just rested against Cardiff and was not played against Stoke since they're overly physical

        he was just our player of the month

            Definitely long term but he will get gametime and as Sinik says it's physical strong players he is not at his best at

            After a rest Fulham seems ideal,

            Having said all of that I am selling , but taking a shot he plays this weekend first

            yes I think he'll manage it but it's clear that Januzaj is an important player and he will play regularly

      Eriksen looks like the best option or it will have to be one of the City boys unfortunately. If you're brave still think it's worth having Toure/Silva over Mata
