With Gameweek 1 concluded, it’s time to delve a little deeper into the data in our first “Big Numbers” article for members of the campaign. We analyse the display of Arsenal’s new wide man against Palace, the QPR front pairing at home to Hull, Liverpool’s ever-improving youngster, Southampton’s delivery under Ronald Koeman and United’s weekend scorer in the 2-1 home loss to Swansea.
Anyone getting Sterling?
Open Controls
Got him from day 1. If I didn't have him I'd wait a week.
Open Controls
It is currently very strong against the dollar.
Open Controls
I want him.
Open Controls
When his fixtures ease up, may get him in ahead of Ramsey!
Open Controls
don't think so
Open Controls
Not yet.
Open Controls
I am thinking tonight for Mata
Open Controls
Ramsey has been very ordinary tonight though. Everton will be a good gauge of his form.
Open Controls
He only played the other day. Give the lad a rest.
Open Controls
*Arsenal have been ordinary. How many men have you seen them committing forward?
Open Controls
good grief
Open Controls
Thing is Wenger may well be angered with Ramsey and "rest" him in the league, it is not like he is short of midfielders anyway.
Open Controls
Thank you Rambo.... Now that's proof that he plays FPL and he's picked himself lol

What Would You Do (WWYD)?
Current Team:
De Gea,
Caulker - Chambers - Luis (Cameron, Wasil)
Sanchez - Herrera - Siggy - Mutch (Marney)
Rooney - Sturridge - Costa
My dilema is all around Luis - I was expecting him to get the nod over Azil at the weekend, but it didn't go well 🙁 Now, I have no idea if he's going to keep the bench warm this weekend against Leicester, or get picked!? Therefore, I think my options are:
1. Trust in Luis, Sanchez to Fabregas
2. Trust in Luis, Sanchez to Ramsey, Herrera to Fabregas.
3. Don't trust Luis, Sanchez to Fabregas, spend the 1.5m on Luis -> Ivanovic?
4. Don't trust Luis, Herrera to Fabregas, Luis to Chester
It's causing me quite a big headache - WWYD?Open ControlsBut Man Utd do have favourable fixtures, so Herrera out could be a bad move?
Open Controls
That's the only reason I picked 4. Herrera won't be pushing forward to an abnormal extent. I just don't have faith in him getting a lot of FPL points.
On the hit strategy, I'm not really sure. Others say you shouldn't really take them, and they are in a better position to say than I.Open Controls
Ramsey red card.
Open Controls
Good for us fpl owners
Open Controls
RAMSEY RED CARD!! Does that effect premier league?????????
Open ControlsNope 🙂
Open Controls
Do you even watch football?
Open ControlsSince it's Europe football, it's double (uefa rule) in league. So he is banned for 2 games in FPL. Sell quick before price falls tonight...
Open Controls
Ramsey out.
Open ControlsGoal-fest.
Open Controls
Team for GW2 - only query is whether to switch any defenders on bench for most likely clean sheet!?
Krul
Debuchy - Cahill - Caulker
Siggy - Fabregas (C) - Ramsey - Mata - Henderson
Costa (VC) - Rooney
Mannone, Bojan, Vlaar, Bruce
Not sure how to improve for GW3 to be honest - potentially Dier or hot £4.5 mil defender for Caulker? Want to keep hold of Mata until his price = Sterlings on assumption one will continue to fall and other to rise!!
TaOpen Controls
Come on Malmö, just one so there is hope
Open ControlsI hope for the same thing!
Open Controls
The thing is if Mata blanks this GW, we as owners are doomed!
Open Controls
I fear this.
Open Controls
I have Haz Sterling and Siggy as well as Mata and the first thee are going nowhere..if I let that 9.0 value slip I also lose out on Silva, Gerrard, Ramsey, Walcott, Cesc as picks for my fourth mid spot...Mata is a great pick but the bigger picture matters as well.
Open Controls
LOL.
Well, I guess I'm gonna take this advise and not switch Mata to Sterling.
My 'brilliant' plan was to swap Mata for Sterling and swap back after the match against Sunderland/City.. It would cost me -8 tho since I already had to get rid of Naughton and I would get 0 points from Sterling and potentialy miss out on a haul of Mata. I'm scared tho.. Value.. If Sterling scores against City and Mata blanks than we really are doomed.Open Controls
Yes exactly lol. I think the right thing to do was keep him, but it is getting dangerous to miss out on the price rises and lose value on him. I would've taken the risk and swapped him for Sterling, but after the game vs City I would have switched back to Mata, but it would cost me a -8 now since I had to get rid of Naughton.. It would also mean I just took a -4 hit for 2 points of Sterling against City and missing out on a potential haul of Mata. Still not sure what to do really..
Open Controls
Only if you're looking to replace him with another 9.0 midfielder. There are plenty way cheaper options to keep an eye on that mata can go out for in any of the next few weeks. I'm keeping him, was a good option on Friday night, still a good option now. The more people ditch him the sweeter his first goal and assist will be.
Open Controls
Loving the red card banter 😆
Open Controls
come on ramsey
Open ControlsWill Lallana and Markovic back threaten Sterling starting spot?
Open Controls
Have you completely lost the plot? 😕
Open Controls
Seemed like a harmless enough question to me, Doosra.
Open Controls
My word! 😀
Open Controls
Ox hits the post

Open ControlsAnd There it is! You a Malmö fan?
Open ControlsI'm a swede. And swedish fotball really needs tbe money. I'm a ifk norrköping fan
Open ControlsI year You. For me it's tps. But When hjk plays, I'll cheer for Them. Jag är finsk.
Open Controls*hear
Open ControlsSo were a bit in the same boat, Jow is Hjk's chanses this yearto grt into europe? You'll ein the league fo sure.
But when it comes to hockey, well you know.... enemys for life in a nice wayOpen ControlsHjk faces Rapid wien for the Uefa Europa League.. Not Easy, but everythings possible..hopefully someday finns Could Also beat swedes on the Green, not just on ice..
Open ControlsOuch Rapid is not easy but Hjk seems to be good this year.....
Your natinal team were on the go for a while a few years back actually but then it never really happened... You should have Swedish Lagerbäck as coach, he slmost took Iceland to the euros, priority is defence but he gets resultsOpen ControlsNew guys are growing up, Maybe There is a future. Qualification group for the euros is reasonable, i Believe there's a change for us..
Open Controls
Did anyone see Wenger mouth "I didn't see that"?
Open Controls
Colback...
Any good as. 5th midfielder?
Can I do better for 5.0 or less?Open Controls
No final product from arsenal. £66M summer spend and nothing has changed.
Open ControlsThey played on Saturday, flew to Turkey and the pitch is crap.
