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.

    Silva and O'Shea in for Mirallas and Azpi for free? (0.3 ITB)

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I prefer the latter.

  2. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Didn't Yaya score twice at the Hawthorns a season or 2 ago?

  3. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Is it worth taking a 4 point hit to swap Mata (who may not start) for Sterling (now playing striker)?

    1. Oz lotto
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Absolutely not for me mate

      1. FPL Maldini
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Not sure what to do with Mata then, would you start Barkley over him?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          What the rest of your team?

          1. FPL Maldini
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            My midfield is: Mata, Barkley, Siggy, Fabregas, Nasri
            Strikers: Kane, Lukaku, Costa

            1. Oz lotto
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              Try to get sig out pending injury news perhaps?

              1. FPL Maldini
                • 11 Years
                11 years, 3 months ago

                Yea tempting, I just can't tell what is going to happen with Mata. He was perfect whilst Di Maria was out but now...

  4. Randy_Marsh
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    One freebie left, use FT to Eriksen or save?

    Guzan,
    Azpi, Baines, Naylor
    Sanchez, Siggy, Hazard (C), Yaya
    Kane, Costa, Austin

    ----------------------------------------------
    McCarthy, Downing, Wisdom, Duff

    Thanks!

    1. Oz lotto
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Strong bench... I would probably make that trade although eriksen has trolled me in the past

    2. BLACKSHEEP
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      from siggy?
      I would be tempted, but probably wouldn't.

      1. Randy_Marsh
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah it'd be Siggy, I'm worried with no United coverage and Arsenal look good too. Hold it out?
        I've a strong lead in my ML

    3. Dead Cat Bounce
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I have very similar team and just had the same thoughts.
      conclusion I also have Kane and that is enough Spurs risk for me...so i did Wisdom --> Zaba to get some additional Man City exposure when their next four games look great.

    Morining gents
    Went To see Ronaldo and Real Madrid in the final of the Mundialito, couldn't see saturday's games:

    I want to know if Rooney was playing very deep again.

    and

    Nasri worth keeping or not ?

    1. AH 🙂
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Very Deep

  6. Woy of the Wovers

        FPL.

        1. VougieDipond
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          I have won loads of monthly's in the works league

          1. Woy of the Wovers
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            Ok. Well done

  7. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Liverpool have to be happy with that result ay? Sterling may come into my team...

    1. The Gambler.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Happy drawing a game we dominated?

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Football is more than that bro, surely we know that!

        What about Drawing a game where you are a man down and goal down in the 96th minute?

  8. Balrath123
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    I've 2 FT's, though my 11 for next wk looks OK, any advice. Guzan, Azpil (H) Baines (H) Chambers (H), Silva (A) Downing(A) Hazard (H) Sanchez (H), Costa (H) Kane (A) Bony (H).....Maybe Chambers > Zabeletta perhaps

  9. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years

    1003 points 1042 rank

    how many points ahead are you guys around 500th?

    1. Dr. Rog

      Click my link, im around there

    2. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      10 clicks on the FPL site will give you that answer. 😉

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        ahh ok

        50 behind top 50
        27 behind top 200
        17 behind top 400

        they all very catchable

  10. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Will bony and toure be available on 10th jan?

    1. In Bale We Trust
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah when are they expected to leave.

  11. MikeTheYid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Yaya & Barkley or ADM & Sterling?

    1. AH 🙂
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Now what do you think ?

      1. MikeTheYid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I'm thinking ADM & Sterling. Is Balotelli ready for the next game?

        1. VougieDipond
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          Balotelli is never ready

    2. sully sonic
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      wouldnt get any Lpool player yet

    3. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      really?

    4. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling for sure

    5. MikeTheYid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      If I buy Sterling and ADM for Yaya and Barkley I would have this team

      Foster
      Baines Azpi Clichy (Dummet Bartley)
      ADM Sterling Sigg Hazard Eriksen
      Costa Giroud (Kane)

      Next round my move would be:
      Giroud & Sigg -> Austin & Silva

      With the fixtures in mind, would this be an alright move?

  12. sully sonic
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    in times of rotation you need a strong and AVAILABLE bench

    My worry at the moment is Bartley

    what other DEF are available between 4.1 to 3.9 ?

    1. Sif
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yun?

    2. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      duff and yun when they are not crocked. wisel....whatever the Leicster defender if he is still getting a game.

    3. Stupendous
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Same problem...

      Slim pickings!

      Crocked Duff, Saylor or Blackett.

      I'm just keeping.

  13. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Watched pantimilion yesterday. To be honest i felt he was playing a little bit deep to be worthy of consideration

  14. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Who's the best Man City midfielder for next few gws
    and who's likely to play all Xmas fixtures?

    Milner
    Yaya
    Silva
    Nasri

    1. Voice of the Mysterons
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yaya, he's on pens

    2. Stupendous
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Best Yaya
      Nailed on Yaya

      Silva close second.

    3. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yaya most likely but it is so hard to tell, I have Nasri in my team as he is cheap and always a threat.

    4. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Thanks gents

    5. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yaya, but don't forget he heads off to the African Nations in Jan

  15. Just A Wooden Spoon
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Pick one:

    A. Clichy to Zaba
    B. Mirallas to Cazorla
    C. Mirallas to Eriksen

    ?

    1. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Clichy likely to play this GW so B looks a good move

    2. Voice of the Mysterons
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      C

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Mirallas might be back for Box Day? Otherwise B.

  16. sully sonic
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Aby DEF between 4.2 to 3.9

    1. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Saylor but poor fixtures in next few or Yun but plays for qpr find another .1 for Hutton 4.3

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Stretch a 0.1 for Hutton.

  17. Gideons Rolling Another One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Is Zabaleta the best man city defender option?

    1. Voice of the Mysterons
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Not sure, too much rotation going on for me

    2. MicNoc
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Except Hart of course.

      1. Gideons Rolling Another One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        If Hart scores I'll bring him in. Until then I'll go with Frank Zaba!

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Hart

  18. Voice of the Mysterons
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone know why Bony was dropped this weekend? Do I need to think about replacing him with someone else?

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Rest

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      He wasn't dropped he was rested. Happens a lot this time of year. No need to sell, he will start next gw

    3. Just A Wooden Spoon
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Rested as most players will at some point this Xmas.

    4. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Rest before hattrick

    5. megatronaldinho
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      probably in need of a rest. i'd imagine that he will start every game til his departure for the african cup

      1. Sif
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        when do players leave? There's a fixture on the 10th, ACON starts 17th.

        1. megatronaldinho
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          i have no idea. ain't looked into it. i'm sure many here wud know

    6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      monk wanted to see how his team does when bony goes african nations

      1. AH 🙂
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        against hull .....

        1. megatronaldinho
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          this means what now?

    7. Gimli son of Gloin
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      More giving Gomis a run out than rested I think

  19. Beavis
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Hey lads, would appreciate any thoughts on my team. Thanks!

    Forster
    Baines, Naylor, Dawson*
    Haz, Cesc, Sanchez, Yaya, Siggy
    Rooney, Kane

    Subs: Mccarthy*, Sakho, Moore*, Yun*

    2 FTs, 0.6 in the bank

    1. A.
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Defence is looking a bit dodgy!

      Maybe drop Dawson. And make plans for dropping Baines?
      Siggy could go too.

      There's lots you could do, but I'm not sure what to prioritise!

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You could punt on Dawson to Toure to get another Defender.

    3. pelle>>maradona
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Do baines to Zabaleta and Moore to a Sunderland Defender

  20. Screaming Midget
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Dr. Rog: Watched pantimilion yesterday. To be honest i felt he was playing a little bit deep to be worthy of consideration

    😀

    What can I say... I love humour like that... maybe why I love Impractical Jokers on Comedy Central 😀

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I hope he does the opposite and when he sees Neuer thinks of the OOP potential.

  21. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    50 behind top 50
    27 behind top 200
    17 behind top 400

    they all very catchable

    1. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      reply fail

    2. Optimus.
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No standard Suarez(c) this season will make a big jump possible

    3. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      How many players to have in Chelsea game? I'm 30 behind you with Apzi Haz Costa ranked 4.5k

    4. Screaming Midget
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      2 seasons ago I went from about 1.5 millionth to ending in 54th.... within about 10 GWs...

      Far too early yet 🙂

      1. UnderstandablyDistraught
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        pull the other one

  22. Stupendous
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Need to sure up my bench...

    Duff and Bartley to Yoshida and Saylor?

  23. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    With my 2FT it is very tempting to do:

    Sakho>Giroud
    Costa>Benteke

    Frees up a Chelsea spot nicely. I'm sure Giroud and Benteke will start every game over Xmas. Costa can be a risk of getting rested.

    1. Stupendous
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Look at Tekkers fixtures too.....

      Delicious!! Keeping here!!

  24. boogle
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Hart
    Baines Ivan Chambers
    Haz Sanchez Siggy Downing
    Costa Lukaku Austin

    Elliot / Ameobi Wisdom Duff

    Good to save transfer this week or would you do Lukaku > Giroud/Benteke?

  25. joe259
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    RMT guys

    Guzan
    Zabaleta, Azpili, Taylor
    Hazard, Fab, Silva, ADM, Sanchez
    Austin, Kane

    Hamer, Bony, Hutton, Duff

    When is Bony leaving for African Cup? Who would I bring in for Bony?
    Suggestions? Any way to improve the team?

  26. John t penguin
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    That big number stat makes eriksen (c) fail even more annoying

    1. Oz lotto
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Commiserations mate. He trolled me constantly last season and this season while I had him

      1. John t penguin
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I don't mind having him but think captain isn't a good option

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I think it's Eriksen all over tbh. Every 4/5 he will get the big haul, past that, puts the stats up and not much else.

  27. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone got any stats on how many minutes Clichy and Lolorov were awarded at this time last season?

    1. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      they played a game together and then rotated I had a look earlier.

  28. Voice of the Mysterons
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    I have a front 3 of Costa Bony Austin
    Would you swop any? I'm thinking of getting Kane

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I have the same three and I'm keeping them all.

      1. Voice of the Mysterons
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        You not interesting in Kane vs Leicester?

        1. VougieDipond
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          then v man u and chelsea?

          1. Voice of the Mysterons
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            Man U defence is pants though, can see him scoring against them

            1. VougieDipond
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              Austin has 2 home games after this week, I back him to heavily outscore Kane (rotation risk) over the 3 games

              1. Voice of the Mysterons
                • 15 Years
                11 years, 3 months ago

                You think Kane is a rotation risk? I don't

    2. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Same front 3. Thinking about bringing in the same man before his imminent price rise. Can't bring myself to lose any of them.

      1. Voice of the Mysterons
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I can just see Kane scoring big time against Leicester

    3. VougieDipond
