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…
Dempsey likely to continue in the hole behind Zamora ? Wanna stay clear of him if he's playing on the wing but it seems this season is all about OOP MFs.
Open ControlsIs Nani seriously injured?
Open Controlsnot happy with results today at all 🙠but glad i managed to bring valencia,dempsey and sess using my wc. also brought torres to give him C 🙠having bale and RVP already .i am pretty happy with my score 58 with BP's to come
Open ControlsIt would be interesting to compare the fortunes of a fantasy manager who uses this site and one who doesn't (but is still active), before this site I was over a millionth in the rankings but since then my surge has been unstoppable!
Open ControlsThis site has made me a better fantasy player for sure. Finds like vorm I would never figure out till too late. City smashed 4 against swansea and everybody was raving about vorm!? Swansea defenders then held up with so many CS.
Open ControlsWas in the top 1k at this point last season before I found the site.
I am currently sitting 300k+ this season having used the site all year.Open Controlsneed to avoid the bandwagons 😀
Open Controls
This is my first full season as member on the site, had an absolutely awful start to the season after having N'Zog and Moses
Sometimes find there's too much information, and you can easily get caught up in a bandwagon. But as they say, 'Knowledge is power' and i'll take any advantage!Open ControlsI discovered this site only at the beginning of this season. Always used just the main site to analyse and finished 16k last year and usually about 20-30k. I'm currently 160K, never been above 80k and just had probably my worst ever week and just WC'd.
Wish I never found this site!! Well, almost!Open Controlsi only found this site last year. finished around 20 000 mark last 3 years. coming 300 000 this year, on here a lot. but look, the site just gives ideas, and lots of them. its up to the player what to do

Need to know about Nani and Jones - Anyone know if they are seriously injured so I can decide on wc them out tonight please?
Open Controlsjones out for a few weeks - ankle ligamnets
Open ControlsJones is 3 weeks I hear. No idea with Nani.
Thankfully I took Nani out and kept Valencia, so it's looking very likely a Jones > Evans this week.Open ControlsJones apparently out for 3 weeks.
Open ControlsHe's wearing a protective boot. Rooney also limping getting off the train on way home apparently.
Open Controls
how;s this draft WC looking?
Vorm, Lindy
Simpson, Enrique, Brown, Richards, Evans
Silva, Sess, Bale, Dempsey, Dyer
Aguero, RVP, HelgusonOpen ControlsWould you do Enrique/Walters -> Clark/Valencia for a four point hit?
Open ControlsBrown IMO. Clark plays for Villa
Open Controls
Team for this week
Vorm
Senderos, Evans, Skrtel
Bale, McClean, Sess, Valencia, Dempsey
Rvp (c), Rooney
Krul, Kelly, Torres, Shotton
2 questions. Should i play kelly instead of skrtel and should i sell torres or just leave him on the bench and save transfer. I'm probably going to save it as i can field a strong 11 but what do ye think?Open ControlsBonus points predictions?
Open ControlsWhy is everyone so quick to jump on the Dempsey bandwagon? I read somewhere he only has a good points haul every 4 GWs and apart from a decent fixture next GW, GW24 he's away to ManC. Surely the best time to bring him in is on WC or in GW25 when he has a nice run.
That's my plan anyway 🙂Open Controls+1 same here
Open ControlsIf Defoe can score at Citeh, Clint can score at Citeh.
Open ControlsIts true. But he has never been in such good form in his life. So you can sort throw the record stats out the window. Two hatricks in quick sucession is difficult to ignore. But I get your point. He could easily have used up all his goal power for the next 6 weeks.
Open Controlsim hoping so 🙂
Open Controls
I remember him getting 2 past Chelsea a couple of years back when Chelsea had one of the best defenses in the prem.
Open ControlsI remember that one. Tremendous header he scored.
Open Controls
What to do this week?
Mignolet (Krul)
Enrique Richards Senderos (Shawcross, Santon)
Sigurdsson Silva Bale Sess (Walters)
RVP Aguerro Fletcher
Did WC and feeling pretty blue about it with seemingly all my 50/50 calls going to pot..
What is the miracle cure then??Open ControlsI want to punch small animals every time I see Madrid play. They're not even good, how are they beating Bilbao right now?! Oh right...cuz their players love taking a fair tackle and play act with it...Thank the MAKER for the AFC championship.
Open ControlsAlso, good play by Flacco. Maybe Tim Tebow is praying for him, hope he gets the same spirit bestowed upon him so he can win this game for us!
Open ControlsIm spanish and a madrid fan, and I agree with you. Mourinho should F*ck off, along with half of the squad
Open ControlsI'm also Spanish, a Cule. Your team deserves better friend, I loved watching the Clasicos when it was all about the football, not about the portugueses and Xabi Alonso seeing how hard they can kick/shove/play act/spit on the Madrid shield...Madrid are such an honorable club, wtf has Florentino done for the sake of trophies?
Open ControlsWow, appreciate the honesty... it's become an ugly spectacle.
Open Controls
ok my current team is
Friedel
BAE, Jones, Brown, Raylor
Silva, Bale (c) Nani,
Odem, RvP, Sturridge
0.9 in bank and 2 FTs
Need to lose Jones and Donovan and maybe Odem too. Thoughts?Open Controlsyes, but that is saved for after this GW, I have 2 frees, will lose them if I wc.
Open Controls
I've held out this long.... must... not... falter... now
Open Controls
to be perfectly honest I would use my wildcard this week
Open Controlsjust swap jones and odem for a cheapie defender who has good fixture and maybe adebayor (one week punt v wigan). that will cover you well until next weeks wildcard imo.
Open Controlsah, you have friedel i see. maybe take a punt on any 2 players who have good fixtures for this week only.
Open Controls
My stay in the top 10k might be short lived when the rankings are updated....
Open ControlsThinking my stay in the top 1k will be similarly short. If I'd had the bottle to keep the armband on the Yank, I'd be 330th instead of 812th...
Open ControlsFrom 60k to 30k in one gw....I had the nuts to keep the C on Clint, Loc 😉
Open ControlsGo you. I'll send the missus round, big boy. 🙂
Open ControlsI'll be awaiting with a bottle of Cognac 😉
Open ControlsHappy with my week, but one day everything's going to gel. In another universe, I captained Dempsey and started Steinsson and McClean instead of Ward and Drenthe, giving me a post-BP score of about 88. 🙂
Open Controls*maths fail. That would have given me 106 points.
Open Controls
I'm confident I'll beat you 🙂
Open Controls
I think I'll keep my place in the top 900... but the aim is now a top 100 finish.
Open Controlsi think you'll be fine with 52 dude
Open Controls
Krul&Mignolet/Krul&Vorm ?
Open ControlsKrul and Mig
Open Controls
Did I hear that Rooney looked injured at the end of the match?
Open ControlsYeah he was limping a bit.
Open ControlsLooked injured all game, over payed muppet!
Open Controls
Is jones out for a few weeks???
Open ControlsTD RAVENS!!! UP BY ONE. (and may the challenge reveal that it was an awesome TD)...
Open ControlsWhy is MOTD2 n at 11.10pm??
Open ControlsHey Guys!
Best forward for under 9.1mil for next 3-4 gws?
Offence.
Dempsey McCLean Sess, BAle, Valencia
Aguero RVP ________
Obviously any extra money can be saved for other areas, and will probably try to bringing in ba when hes back.Open ControlsGot komp, richards, and aguero already

Open ControlsWhat are Arteta and Schwarzer doing in there?

aww come on now Jew, spread the love already 😛
Open Controls
Is Sessegnon the real deal? I've generally shied away from players from the likes of Sunderland, Stoke and Wolves as you know they'll lose against top four teams, which limits their appeal...
Open ControlsEvery time I put him in, he goes on a goal/assist drought. You should all thank me for leaving him out!
Open ControlsThankyou, keep up the good work
Open Controls
I rate him as the Walters of Sunderland and Walters has NEVER let me down until now. I don't like Sess's fixtures coming up, but if you are looking for a quality mid priced midfielder then yes, he's the real deal.
Open ControlsWell, I'm looking for someone who'll actually score points! Unlike VDV, Gerard, Aguero, Sturridge etc etc etc...
Open ControlsNani, Nani, Nani, Nani and Nani ( for not scoring points that is)
Open ControlsHaha it's a gamble, week by week...You can count on Mata, Bale, Silva in the mid to get you some sweet extra points each week...in my experience, anyways. But if you're staring at Sunderland fixtures and want to profit from them...Sess is the way to go.
Open ControlsIf you wish to profit from Sunderland fixtures, Sess is the way to go!
Open ControlsSorry, forum freaked out on me, said it was a duplicate comment, I wrote a new one, turns out I was punk'd....sigh...
Open Controls
He really looks impressive now. Even vs Chelsea he was involved in a lot. And suddenly he has some composure in front of goal. Ive got him for price rise, will prob keep him for norwich.
Open ControlsYou need to have a balanced team and an OOP Mid Table player like Sess is Gold Dust. With MON as his manager I can't see his scoring faltering. Who says he won't nick a goal against one of the big clubs at home or away anyways? Defo a better option than Scholes or Giggs for consistency. De Jong??? Please! Just do the maths - defensive journey men and 60 minute men don't get great cumulative points.
Open ControlsSavage History retro, thats impressive shooting over the last 5 years.
Open Controls
Is a midfield of
Silva, Sess, Valencia, Dempsey, Bale
too much?Open ControlsHell no, though make sure you have a sub option from your forwards
Open ControlsThat's what I had...just think....who are you going to bench?!
Open ControlsProbably the best midfield line up you can have at the moment.
Open Controls
Not sure what to do...
Vorm Sorensen
Jones Enrique BAE Evans Simpson
Silva Bale Sess Walters Surman
RVP Rooney Sturridge
1 FT 0.3 in the bank.
1. Sturridge + Walters – Helgi + Dempsey
2. Rooney + Walters – Valencia + Zamora
3. Wildcard
4. Other??Open ControlsIs it possible for you to get Dempsey and Zamora? They link up quite well and with the fixtures coming up, I wouldn't be surprised if they continued in the same form.
Open ControlsStrange but you seem to be transfering in all the players that did well this week, and selling those that had a bad week.
As they say in financial circles , future returns may differ from those of the pastOpen ControlsHaha yeah there is definitely a hint of kneejerk in my transfer ideas. But to be honest I wouldn't play Walters away to United anyway, and he'll be out in my WC. Dempsey and Valencia are both decent replacements I think.
Rooney out is a kneejerk for sure but he looked so poor today. Likewise Sturridge who also has a tricky fixture this week.
So they are kneejerks but there is some thought behind them!Open Controls
PATS FUMBLE RAVENS RECOVER!!!!
Open ControlsPretty damn close 😉 four point lead, Ravens!
Open ControlsI think he's trying to say that the Broncos should have beaten the Pats but fate conspired against them.
Open ControlsLol the Broncos should have never gotten as far as they did. Tebow was overhyped, and their receivers are terrible...the Pats won, deservedly so.
Open Controls
Turning point.
Open Controls
What to do?
Given Vorm
BAE Enrique Richards Simpson Shotton
Dyer Walters Silva Nani Bale
RVP Ade Sturridge
2FTs, 0.4 in bank, WC for GW24.
1 – Dyer + Nani —-> Sess + Valencia
2 – Sturridge + Nani —–> Welbeck + Valencia/Dempsey
3 – Dyer + Sturridge —-> Sess + Morison/Helguson/Keane
4 – 2 one week puntsOpen ControlsNo.1
Open ControlsSess is surely a one week punt anyway? Him and "someone else"....
Open ControlsSess would stay on my WC.
Open Controls
I like 2 with Dempsey and possibly Walters - Sess for a hit.
You wouldn't want to play Walters away to United, so that means playing Dyer home to Chelsea. I'd fancy Sess to outscore him by 4 and would also mean you're getting Sess before his price rises.Open ControlsReally dont want to take a hit before I play WC. If i got get one of Dempsey/Valencia or Sess they can come in my WC.
I am happy for Walters to sit next week, so one of him or Dyer need to go really as others in my front 8 have good fixtures.Open Controls
Valencia and mcclean or rotate sess and walters?
Open ControlsJust wanna wish you both good luck. We're all counting on you.
Open Controls....que?
