We take our regular look back at the Premier League line-ups from the weekend just gone, analysing the systems and personnel used by the 20 top-flight clubs and seeing what lessons could be learned ahead of Gameweek 7.

As was the case last week, we are harnessing the use of the average position maps in our Members’ Area and highlighting some of the key stats from each game.

The figures in brackets given after each player name in the article below correspond to the numbered shirts in the position maps.

      Yeah it's the same guy, was unnecessarily rude and a complete dickhead quite frankly to a load of people in the name of views.

      He really doesn't seem like a nice guy so in my opinion it's worked out perfectly that those same guys can salvage their accounts and he can't.

    Wildcard time - in comes KDB so therefore I have to FPL Gold in either Sterling or Aguero 🙁

    Having decided on Salah, KDB, Abraham, Pukki and TAA, it's too imbalanced to have Sterling in that midfield. Three mid strikers? Minging.

    A) Sterling, McGinn & Vardy
    B) Sterling, Mount & Haller
    C) Martial, Mount & Aguero

          Depends on your team structure. If you have Sterling already, keep. If not, and it's a straight choice, Aguero seems the better pick for now with better form and rested for the PL games.

      Like A

      You'll need to move McGinn on probs after 9 but he's keeping pace with Mount for now and CHO could come in at the same price more or less.

      Vardy is a great WC call - forward looking. And Sterling KdB is a great combo too.

          I can see why you'd want to, but it seems a bit risky for a hit. You might be better off saving, unless you think Mount and Soyuncu outscores them by 4 or more this week - which I'm not sure they will.

            It won’t effect what happens. I bet you have City, Liverpool and Chelsea attack as well so will be conflicted either way. Imo just pick one and stick to it as they will all probably score 2 or less

      He's over performing for sure but while Chelsea can't defend they sure can attack and he's the spearhead. Beautiful heat map.

      They're separate assets anyway.
