With three Fantasy Premier League deadlines to think about in the space of just over a week, we take our regular look at the data available to subscribers in our Members’ area and present the stand-out statistics that could shape Fantasy managers’ transfers ahead of a busy December.

We’ve run down the eye-catching numbers in every position, as well as looking at the strengths and weaknesses of various teams to assess which Fantasy Premier League assets could have a profitable weekend.

Our recent articles on where each top-flight team is most vulnerable is also intended to complement this piece.

      I've traded out Holebas and Lacazette with my transfers and don't want to take a hit with Barkley... at this stage.

      I have around 4 mil in the bank so will consider moving him now. If not for the funds, I don't think you're getting much for the same cost with a possible -4.

      If he played, the roof is high for him. More likely with more minutes.

      Hopefully that paints a picture for my view.

          I have 5.8 for a mid and he looked like the most interesting asset at that price

    Is it really time to pile up on city mids/striker?
    Ok easy fixture this week , then Watford away ( turnover incoming ), and then Chelsea away..
    Lvpool, just cause everyone is getting rid of salah has Everton, Burnley and Bournemouth...
    I think it would be more sensible to stock up on spurs players instead..arsenal ok, but they concede goals for fun anyway, saints and Leicester...

        Think it's the ideal time to get MCI. Most teams will be rotating so that becomes less of a differentiator.
        Leaves potential for points in any given game as main factor, where basically given the number of goals they're getting they win.

          Yes , but I think people are taking hits now to put sterling / sane in now and the next week they ll be taking hits to get kane train...this is my thought...
          I have salah, Mane, Kun and I think I ll leave it that way this week and then with 2 free transfers try to fit kane in as well as keeping Kun and possibly salah

              In terms of chopping and changing I agree. Not sure Kane's the best spurs option in value terms (vs mids) but he's one of a few players who can haul + doesn't get rotated + has the fixtures. That may change with the CL fixture, but still think he'll have something like one half game at worst.

        Begovic (Boruc)
        Alonso, Doherty, Bennett, AWB (Balbu)
        Salah(v), Mane, Sterling(c) (Fraser, Billing)
        Kun, Arnie, Jimenez

        Thinking straight Begovic to Fabianski, but should I then play Balbuena?

        Reluctant to bench Bennett though as Cardiff concede a lot of headers. Any ideas?
