We continue our series of articles for members focusing on the player Key Performance Indicators (KPI). This time around, we delve into the data to discover those forwards who favoured home comforts over 2013/14 and also assess the more consistent strikers who produced the same sort of attacking threat regardless of fixture.

For the unfamiliar, these Key Performers Indicator (KPI) tables are designed to use a series of key stats to allow our members to track form or change in player performance. By tracking the frequency of certain key statistics and comparing over two separate periods of time, we can ascertain each player’s form, whether it be an improvement or decrease in displays on the pitch. As mentioned in last summer’s introductory article, we’ve rolled out a preview movie which shows just how to get the best out of the KPI tables.

      dont fancy the 4-3-3 personally but if youre set on it i wouldnt be doubling up on everton defence and would rather have united defender than ward at least for first 8 fixtures or so.... dont like the city double up with fixtures i think there is a lot of value in cheaper midds such as siggy arnie de jong who u can play every week i would downgrade nasri to one of those and use the funds to improve your bench. It looks like u have based your team on only going for players from top teams at least in attack and this from experience can be a trap; there is plenty of great options to be found in the 'lesser' teams giving your team more balance.

        My thinking is one United and one City forward is essential. Other than that there are too many mids to choose from in comparison to the forwards. There are plenty of 9m mids but not many 9m forwards.

      I would wait and see with sterling given fixtures gametime and the way liverpool adapt without suarez. More importantly i think there are better choices at that price range : ramsey, mata , fab ,silva ect ... u can always swap one of them to sterling later if you fancy when his fixtures ease up.

    @Innsie
    Read your team on the last page and it's near identical to mine. Only difference is I have Bony instead of Giroud. And where you have Caulker and Taylor I'm still trying to figure out the two defenders I want.

    Why did you pick those two?

    Open Controls
    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I picked Giroud over Bony as I didn't want to double up on Swansea attack with Siggy. I'm still not convinced by Giroud so I'm looking at Pelle, Remy, Austin etc so I can get a Chelsea defender too or Mata. Caulker is my punt, goalscoring defenders are one of the best ways to gain ground on the template, and Taylor is an attacking fullback who has good fixtures, including a decent match in GW3 where I can play him over Davies.

    Really stuck on this one.

    A) Austin, Sanchez, Ward, Foster (to rotate with Krul)
    B) Giroud, Ramsey, Mariappa, Elliot

      The more and more i think about it, i really believe Alexis is going to have a running stat. I am too afraid to go without him personally.

        I think Ramsey will come pretty close to him this season, and their early run of fixtures isn't so impressive to say that it's surely going to be a big difference between the two. Leaning towards B at the moment...

    Guys what do you think?

    Mannone (Kurl)
    Debuchy - shaw - chaill (Bruce - O'shea)
    Mata - Hazard - Ramsey - Davis (SOU) (Albrighton)
    Costa - Austin - Rooney

    Should I replace Austin and Ramsey with Zamora and Sanchez?

        I'm looking for 2-3 teams who rotate well(which I can't seem to figure out for some reason), so I can't justify spending 5m on a defender who chances are will be benched a fair bit

      Rosenior, Chester, Davies and Figueroa? Not sure though. Bruce might get some game time.

      Davies. Chester should be safe too. Figs and Rosenior also but could experience some rotation.

      perhaps bony/dzeko as an alternative to giroud?

      also, I think you just need bego and a 4m gk...it is more worthwhile spending the 0.5 elsewhere (besides it gives you an unwanted benching dilemma, which can often lead to benching big points
      🙁 )
