As always, our first members article of the week delves into the data from the previous batch of fixtures. This time around, the displays of Chelsea’s wide men, Liverpool’s lone forward, Southampton’s new playmaker and the Hammers’ attacking improvement all come under analysis.

    Is Jovetic the real deal? Is he still too rotation prone?

    My gut is telling me to captain Caulker this week.

    I don't think I can follow through, but this bodes well for his prospect of opening his goal scoring account for QPR. Had the same feeling ahead of Townsend's cross shot last season, a week which I actually did cap him.

    Stay strong Caulker owners, stay strong.

        Surly united are gonna sort it out soon, a clean sheet against Burnly is a must. If Blackett doesn't play he wont get subbed on so Sterling will come on in that case anyway? Seems smarter than starting Sterling against a confident Spurs.

        I think I MIGHT take a hit to do Begovic + Chambers > Krul + Colo this week..Begovic surely won't get more than 1 or 2 points vs City and with the rest of my defense being Azpi, Kolarov, Hutton and Baird it's possible I can't even field 3 defenders if Chambers doesn't play!

        would be a -4 that really just needs to score 4 or 5 points between the pair to be worth it
