Super Sunday left Sky Sports salivating after both Manchester clubs completed the double over their north London counterparts to end the gameweek. With the FA Cup next weekend, we’ve a nine day wait until the next lot of fixtures but, for just now, it’s time to analyse the key statistics from our Members area and make a stab at the destination of the Fantasy Premier League bonus points…

    Hi, was wondering what your thoughts were on this WC attacking line up:

    Bale, Silva, Valencia, Dempsey, Dyer
    RVP, Fletcher, Adebayor

    I know Spurs have tough fixtures but surely Adebayor is likely to score at least some goals.

    I would have 1.9 million in the bank and could use it upgrade Fletcher to Ba (when he is back) or Sturridge.

    I am worried about not having Aguero but already have Kompany and Silva as Man. City coverage.

      Errr, no - but I may end up with both. Depending on Fourth Round injuries ... 🙂

      I have both (thankfully). Why can't you have both? Who else do you have?

    Hmm Jones replacement - Kompany or Jevans? Will probably have both on my WC. Only need a one week player but as they will both probably rise over the next week I might as well make the transfer sooner rather than later.

      I'm thinking of getting in Vermaelen, and keeping him through my WC next week, then doing Vermaelen -> Kompany after Arsenals match against Bolton.

      Not sure about Evans with Utd's fix. Kelly might be a better bet at FUL. Will trust you that those gks rotate seamlessly.

      8/10

    Starting to make a move-pressed the button on my wildcard team which is likely to be:

    Vorm/Ruddy
    Kompany/Evans/Brown/Shotton/Simpson
    Bale/Valencia/Dempsey/Silva/Sess
    Aguero/RVP/Welbeck

    Then each week I can worry which front 7 to play!

      Not bad. What do you think about getting Cahill?

      I know he did not play against Norwich but I can see him playing against Swansea (who have failed to score in about half of their games this season)

        I'm not too keen on his fixtures-I think he will be eased in and so I think it's better holding off until he's proved himself. I could be wrong!
