A superb Stamford Bridge encounter brings Sunday’s events to a close and allows us to take a step back and start examining the action in more detail. Our Members can now lose themselves in our selection of key stats from the matches so far, and assess our view on where the Fantasy Premier League bonus could be heading…

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

    Is it mad to consider benching aguero for mcclean this week? After all Aguero does nothing away and McClean is ..... well McClean.

          Walters--->Siggy/Sinclair, i would then play front 7 of:

          Bale Silva Siggy/Sinclair McClean
          RVP Ba Aguero

          Of course i could bench Ba, but I wont have the cajones to do that.

    Guys, my team: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/1463087/event-history/24/

    Have one free transfer for this GW. Do you think getting Caulker for Verm for free for this week and getting Ba in for keane the week after is bettter than getting Verm->Caulker and Valencia->Siggy for a 4 point hit?
    I have a 100 points or so deficit on my mate in the league

    Repost - Which do you think would be the best transfers to do this week;

    A) Enrique/Morison -> Caulker/Ba + 0m
    B) Valencia/Morison -> Sigurdsson or OxladeChamberlain/Ba + 0.9m/1.6m for future upgrades.

    Thanks for the help

        would guess yes as they surely get goals in extra time, so therefore a win makes sense too.

      Can't find anything conclusive but after stats are updated from today's games, they should show if a game was won under the 'w' for Win! I'd imagine it'll go down as a win if it's won in extra time or pens. Ain't got a clue about pens after extra time. Stats will show the player's goals after updates. Drink? Don't mind if I do.

          Yeah, but he could have gone for Hill's Angels. Or Hill Street Blues. Or To Hill a Mocking Bird.

    Getting rid of that useless lump Fletcher tonight to avoid a drop. Plenty of cash. Which option:

    Aguero
    Zamora
    Yakubu

      Not really useless striker, hes still worth the gamble for a 3rd striker

      I assume you have Ba/Cisse

      Aguero out of your options though

      If Bale scores, he's bound to get a few BP so there's a decent chance of it happening

    A) Ox to Siggy (bench Ba)

    or

    B) Huth to Kompany (play Ba)

    Just worried that if I bench Ba, he might score and missing out on Siggy against Norwich could be bad

      I did Rooney to Aguero last week and not regretting it. I think Aguero is a better option for the short term. Rooney got lucky with two penalties this week after all while admittedly looking sharp.
