The Big Numbers – Gameweek 17

QPR’s home hitman hogs the array of impressive numbers on show from the weekend, ably assisted by stellar showings from Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen. Elsewhere in our regular members’ statistical digest, we examine how Man City’s tactical tweaks influenced two of their key midfielders and analyse how a pair of returning United assets are hinting at major hauls as their minutes begin to build.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      People are ridiculously short sighted. If Demichelis scored this weekend, people would be swapping Zab or Clichy for him.

      The non-knee jerk amongst us can see they're very sideways. Rooney to RVP less so, as Rooney is now affectively a midfielder, but people love chasing points ultimately.

    Is Clark from Villa nailed on? He started even with Vlaar back. I like the lad and I think he has goals in him

        Thanks mate even if he is out not sure what to do. Downing would come in. But could do -4 for one of Adm silva or sterling and downgrade Baines? Thoughts?

    Like many others on here I think of two possible transfers.

    A. Baines > Zaba
    B. Lukaku > Giroud
    C. Save

    I prefer B, but both moves could backfire. Everton is not on form, but then they are playing a "tired" Stoke team at home. What do you think? My weakness in this game is that I keep players far too long.

          Sure, but he could just get another one on the bench... Play both 26th and 28th, naah.. I dont think so actually... Both Kolarov/Clichy and Zab/Sagna will rotate imo...
