We delve into the data from the Gameweek gone by to analyse the most impressive performers in the ten fixtures played out. Tottenham and City’s attacks are brought under the microscope, whilst we also take time to assess Palace’s in-form wide man, United’s record signing and Daniel Sturridge’s drop in form:
Ramires suspended tonight Geezer
Open Controls"Midfielder John Mikel Obi missed the Stoke game with an injury, but may replace the suspended Ramires or the ineligible Nemanja Matic."
BBC SportOpen ControlsMust be 2 YCs in a row then!
Luiz and Mikel in CM. Bloody hell geezer, that's massive.Open Controls
Two conundrums that I could do with a bit of help with:
1) Gonna have to bench one of Eriksen, Hazard or Sturridge........
2) Is it worth doing Reid ➡ Kolarov? Have no other City defense and Clichy wasn't on the bench last game.
Cheers for previous replies.Open ControlsI'd bench Sturridge. And wait for Friday in regards to Clichy news.
Open Controls
judging by comments on here there will be no one left with sturridge by the weekend........im keeping for the great differential lol
Open ControlsHe must be sitting at home, reading this site questioning what he did to deserve such an exodus in his stock.
Either that, or doing something far more useful with his time but that seems unlikely.Open Controls
Aguero – Not played a single minute yet. Is injury prone and Dzeko, Jovetic, and Negredo all fit. I reckon he will get around 20-30mins at a push against Liverpool. Depending on how he plays and how sharp he is will determine if Pele starts him against Sunderland. Im thinking it makes sense to start him from the bench again as Sunderland should be an easy game, and may get around 30-45mins in this game coming off the bench. Pele and he himself will want to ease back in and not reoccur his injury especially with the world cup looming over. My advice – AVOID
Dzeko – Will start against Liverpool. On Form but really unpredictable so wouldn’t bring him but if you have him keep. I reckon will start against Sunderland but will be taken off early for Aguero most likely. Think he will be the one being sacrificed for Kun reducing his gametime. Could however in that time score a good haul. My advice – KEEP IF YOU HAVE HIM< BUT DON’T BRING IN.
Would rather have Yaya and one of Silva or Nasri and defender. Reckon this is the way to go. Open ControlsThe thing is - you can basically rule out a CS vs Pool and there's a good chance of CS vs Sunderland. Typically an upside of 8-10 points.
Even if Kun/Dzeko play around 120 mins, you'd expect them to comfortably beat that over 2 fixtures. One could argue their upside is much higher.
Depends if you want value or points and the state of the rest of your team. No one decision is right.Open Controlskey point is there is only 2 days rest between games.....if dzeko plays 90 at pool then no way he starts v sun...........he looks done in at the best of times
Open Controls
Naismiths gametime for the DGW? He's in form and dirty cheap. Played on top against the gunners, didn't he? Heard that lukaku played more on the flank then. Tempted to bring him, trying to close 60 p gap to my opponent... may have to those kind of transfers... comments please!

Thoughts?Open Controlspersonally, that looks to me like a massive waste. You've got a good team for this week with the right transfers. Would defo ship nolan, and one of mata/sturridge. Need some city boys in there. Could go mata and nolan > Silva and nasri if u can afford that?
Open ControlsDon't like the WC and benching Zaba?!
Open ControlsDidn't mean that, was looking for thoughts on the transfers themselves haha.

To anyone else considering benching a Chelsea defender

Hopefully this pattern continues 😀Open ControlsFar right column is clean sheets, they'll concede this week and then get a CS the week after. Science!

Good to go this week?
Mannone
Coleman, Azpilicueta, Dann
Eriksen, Ramsey, Silva, Yaya
Aguero, Lukaku(C), Suarez
subs: Adrian, Gerrard, Flanagan, Chester.
No FT, 1.8 ITBOpen ControlsYeah looks good mate, very similar to what I am going with, although I have still to make my 2 FT for this week.
The only risk in there is Ramsey as Arsenal have been poor of late and it yet remains to be seen if he can replicate the form of early season.Open ControlsShould I bench him over Gerrard?
Open Controls
Which to start:
Puncheon or AJ this DGW?Open Controlsboth not possible?
Open ControlsGot Silva, Haz, AJ, Eriksen, Punch
Open Controls
Arsenal should snap up Micah Richards as he's leaving City.
He could return to the beast he was a few years ago.Open ControlsHe's so much worse than Sagna though and despite Sagna's age he's in better shape than Richards.
Open ControlsSagna only goes forward and can't defend great. He will leave it looks like.
Richards is more physical which we need.Open Controls
Signing Richards won't improve Arsenal's team. Perhaps squad depth but not sure he'll move unless he's guranteed being in the first 11.
Open Controls
So who's the favourite for (C) duties this week?
Seen a fair bit of Lukaku love but I'm dubious. Sunderland actually beat Everton 1-0 in the reverse fixture, and if you look at Sunderland's results, all of their heavy defeats have come away from home. The MCY-Sun game looks far more appealing to me.
Of course then there's the problem of gametime for City players. I think I've just about resolved to bring in Aguero, but captain Yaya.Open ControlsTwo cleansheets look quite likely. Unfortunately I don't have him, looks a safe bet.
Open Controls
Everton were 10 men with second choice keeper for 70 mins in that game.
I'm still on Lukaku for now, but yes, City is tempting.Open ControlsTempted by silva
Although none of them really makes me comfortable , especially Lukaku (been here before on a double )Open ControlsBiggest differential will be the determiner for me, so Silva or Aguero as Baines, Coleman, Barkley, Dzeko have higher ownership, I think.
Open ControlsGood point. I don't suppose a Yaya haul would propel me very far up the rankings.
Open ControlsOne of the only times of the season that going Yaya-less has felt good as far as my decision making as a chaser is concerned. It just cost me 490,000 spots to get to this point.
Open ControlsI just had to cave in the end, but having not owned Ramsey this season, I can probably sympathise.
Open Controls
How certain is Aguero to play? The last time I was in this situation with him he didn't, cost me dearly.
Open Controlsme too but i'm still front of the que.
If any player is worth the risk, its him. Potential rewards are hugeOpen ControlsHey 7SoS, Would you rather get Kun(+Snoddy) or Lallana (+Sturridge)?
Open ControlsKun and Eriksen?
I wouldn't rush for sturridge, you'll want Rooney in soon, no doubt. Kun is worth a punt by my reckoning, but wait until the last minute. Even if this week is nothing remarkable, he still has another DGW and great fixtures (and is obviously top notch)
Snoddy is great, but i prefer Erik if possible.
Alternatively, Punch is nice and cheap if you wanna plan for the SAR comboOpen Controls
He looks likely to feature against Liverpool but starting is probably unlikely as he only returned to full training today, having not played more than one half in four months.
Open Controls
Leicester to beat Brighton
Wigan to beat Millwall

After this week would be a great time for a Wildcard wouldn't it.Open ControlsIt would be a night to remember for nearly 42 000 souls bearing witness and voice to a melting pot of emblazoned passion at a place called Stamford Bridge.
And on that night one man would rise from the ashes of despair to claim glorious victory.. A phoenix rekindled and reborn by a grey haired wizard dressed in black.
London would never forget. The world would never forget.
And that warrior would be forever known as Fernando Torres.Open Controls100% = total time on FFS

Open ControlsI binned him for Dzeko at the weekend. Good move on the face of it.
I'd worry about a double up with a run in with so much riding on it.Open Controlshes scored 20 this season, so i doubt a blip will last, same when haz or lalana have a blank patch, you know theyll come back....plus pool are hungry
im worried about losin him as i prob wont be able to get him back, but if i want aguero......Open Controls
whew, I bought for 9.4 and his current price is 10.7 so I can stomach a drop before I lose .1 on him 🙂
Open Controlsim not fussed about a small drop, just that its crucial to gettin aguero in. if he drops 0.3 before fri i may miss out
plus if i wanted him back its an extra 0.8Open Controls
Most likely my 3 strikers for run in will be Rooney Aguero Suarez
Open Controlsim lookin at lukaku suarez aguero
