We delve into the data once again ahead of tomorrow’s fast-approaching Gameweek 26 deadline. Hull’s new Croatian frontman and Palace’s debutant are amongst the assessed, whilst we also examine City’s recent goal drought, Tottenham’s Togolese talisman and a couple of in-form wide men who racked up the weekend returns:

I think Yaya's one of them players that the giraffes like to own, he can be lucky, but also talented. But you have to be nice to Yaya, you have to be tall like a tree.

    @Henry Hill: Yes, Chambers is under threat from Clyne but to me seems like he's first choice. He started versus Arsenal and pretty much every game else when he has been fit. Yoshi is 100% -not- first choice, he'll lose his spot as soon as Lovren is back. Check lineups, if Chambers start, Yoshi -> Chambers. I feel like I'm the only one who thinks Chambers is a better long-term choice than Yoshi for us with the luxury problem of having too many FTs.

    on the bright side, if pool game is postponed, there is a chance for a "mini" wildcard

    so some like myself i will be having 8 players to field (have 3 pool players, terry , parr) so taking hits is not too bad as the -8 hit in reality is a minus -2 as the 3 players that would come in they should get minimum 2pts each so that is 6pts. it also give u the chance to have a sorting out of some players

    thoughts? i am seeing it wrongly?
