The “Big Numbers” brings a new approach to our post-match coverage for our members, isolating the key player and team stats from the weekend action, whilst still offering our speculative punt at the FPL bonus points.

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

    What a rubbish week for me in FPL. Good to start an article with a moan.

      Oh and to continue the moan - Baines is one of the most annoying players I have. Always seems to NEARLY get a good haul, but ends up with 2 points.

        He's been a disaster buy for me. Regardless of what he does against Swansea I think he's on his way out.

          I'm becoming too focussed on the DGW. Gutted that Bale didnt play today after bringing him in - for Silva. Horror.

            Oh, that's a nasty transfer! I'll probably have three Spurs for the double, but just Drenthe from Everton. Can't trust them at the moment.

      Anytime you got a defender seeking attacking points it's a pain, it's just worse in this case cos Everton can't keep CS.

      I was watching Jones earlier and he hit the post AGAIN and had a few misses. But at least I could count on the CS.
