The Big Numbers – Gameweek Twenty Seven

Scarred by the resting of City duo Sergio Aguero and David Silva, Gameweek 27 will go down as one of the key periods in the Fantasy season as vice captains kicked in to gift or rob Fantasy managers of spoils. Sunday’s events didn’t fail to add their own twists with red cards, missed penalties and the return to form of Clint Demspey alongside the extraordinary contribution of Pavel Pogrebnyak.

Our members can now pick through all the statistics from the Gameweek and, as always, we’ve picked out some eye-catching numbers to digest. Of course, we’ve also included our prediction of where the Fantasy Premier League bonus will go…

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

    53 from 9 players. Is that good, bad or ugly?

      pre bonus?

      you never know with people these days

      I'll be on 53 (prob) after bonus and had Ba (c) no aguero and no RVP

        Yeah, pre-bonus. I imagine I'll end up on around 60 with baps.

        That's a great score with Ba (c) and no RVP.

            Dempsey must get 2.

            I had Bale/Silva/Aguero/Taiwo/Kelly.

            Then having seen Spurs get drubbed by United I thought my feeble consolation would have been the Evans (also 3rd sub) cleanie but Defoe screwed that up for me!!!

      Yeah I did think that, I should've said but my fingers were tired to type it all out

      In a desperate last minute attempt to 'capitalise' on a double GW I am even considering Suarez, though this would break my own code of no Liverpool players this season (a code that has served me)

      As it is thinking of sacrificing one of Bale / Silva to allow for a Rooney + Nani or Young switcheroo, sound good, likey likey?

        Ugh...but it's SO hard to offload the likes of Silva, Bale, Demps, etc....

    Aguero to Rooney
    Sess to Young
    Ba to Yak (has to be done to fund the over moves)

    4 point hit.

    Yay or Nay?

        I am not feeling the Liverpool love, despite the temptation to gamble on bringing in Suarez

        I dont want to bring in players that I will want to get rid of the week after again. Enrique is enough for me.

    1) Richards + Aguero --> Skrtel + Suarez
    2) Richards + Ba --> Suarez + 5.5 defender
    3) Ba + Silva --> Suarez + Ashley Young
    4) Just Aguero --> Suarez

    I have only 1 FT

    damn it why is Ba to Suarez for a 4 point hit still tempting me.

    btw, why was BAE appealing for offside against Nani?

    After much deliberation (and half a pint) I'm not knee jerking. The only transfer I see me doing is Taiwo>Skrtl or JEnrique...Aguero, Ba, all still in. I'm pretty sure this is a bad idea though...I need me some Rooney or Young 🙁

    Scwarzer
    Kompany/Evans/Skirtel
    Pilkington/Yaya/Dempsey/Nani
    RVP/Suarez/Adebayor

    Mignolet Siggy/Kelly/RTaylor?

    Things I'd like to see next season

    1. Southampton players to chose from!

    2. Any comments like "Is -inserthighnumber- a good score" results in a yellow card. Risk it again and you are off the site

    3. People banned from "Is this whole team ok" comments. The odd couple of picks or transfers is ok

    4. A total overhaul of the bonus point system (Cech, again, really?)

    5. Increased limit on players from one team (4 or 5)

    Any other suggestions?

      Lambert or Lallana wonder what price tag they will have when the saints come up.
      I lived in soton for 10 years great place to live.

        IF we go up (need to play better against Ipswich than we did against Leeds!)

        then

        Lallana 5.5
        Lambert 5.5

        or maybe even less

        Oh and Ibrahimovic 11.0 and Huntelaar 6.5

        Our (deceased) owner was worth 3billion! Fifth on the football rich list, saints could be the team to watch over the summer transfer months

      Only agree on

      1) Lambert + Guly 😉
      4) Back to the good old one

      But would like to see a slight decrease in prices.
