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.

              This will sound a little odd, it's either Stu or Rooney. My mind is not quite made up. Rooney in means Nani out, Stu in means Jones in too. I have time...

      You going with the bounce back pick of Ba for captain. WBA look feisty on D but look suspect in the air. If they don't play the high-line defensively (which I fear teams will play on Newcastle now) you should be looking for a nice score with Ba. It's do or die whether or not your pricey D sinks you. I would downgrade walker or even Walters to upgrade Bad K to Richards, if you're gonna go attack go 4 for 4. "Komapny" just sticks out like a sore thumb...

    A Bit of A Quandary...

    I have: Evans (A) Fulham, Richards (H) Stoke, Simpson (H) WBA & Hibbert (H) Swansea

    There's no way I'm fielding four defenders with: Walcott, VDV, Silva & Mata to play this week (And Drenthe as my 5th mid).

    Should I bench Evans or Hibbert? Or does anyone see any other nuggets of knowledge that I'm missing here?

    (Strikers are RVP, Ade and Yak...of course non of them will be sat...)

    Thanks in advance.

        I totally disagree. If he's fit he's one of Evertaon's top players, and one that makes a real difference to the side. For 5.9, he's a bargain, imho. Yes, I do have him and am still happy despite he's recent layoff.

          No...shorter, Jay Spearing would be the midget I was referring to the only other probable comp for that DM position. Unless he throws Aurelio in there and I doubt that happens. But to answer my earlier question Spearing is suspended until Dec. 26th. So to answer your question, looks like Jonjo is in there until he f*cks it up.

        Pump your brakes folks this was an even more toothless (than they already are) Villa side. I'd be interested to see what the possession percentages were for this match up. Could be the Yaya syndrome...where one game he bombs forward and has all sorts of goes, and the next he's playing the "holding mid" by the books.

      Brown to Evans seems like your best bet.

        Get rid of Brown or ShawX. Try getting in Evans or Shotton

    Terrible week and dropped out of the top 100. Any word on bale and if he'll play on thursday? Shaw to verm is what I was looking at but having to replace bale and ramsey might force my hand.

    Any thoughts..?? Thinking of taking 4pt hit for following..

    Im feeling a blue surge...starting with swansea, im confident my team can take the risk.

    Ruddy/Vorm

    Verm/Jones/Raylor/Jose/Evans out for Baines

    Ferg/Walters/Nani/Silva/Bale out for Drenthe

    Ba/Stu/RVP

    Or just sit on it til weekend and make 2 freebies..??

    Im just certain Everton are going to sort there shit out for Swans game..and i'll wish i did it..

    Any thoughts welcome to ease my pondering mind.
