Having ran the rule over the Goalkeepers, the second part of our series of Member articles focussing on projected value takes a look at the defenders. With the aid of our Projections we’ve analysed the average points expected per player over the course of the upcoming campaign and, applying this to the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) player price list, have listed the top ten in terms of expected value per Fantasy pound for the season ahead…

        Biggest problem with Ireland is he seems to get injured just looking at a football...

        Holman seems to fit Lambert's style pretty well so not as big a gamble as it may appear.

        I would gave up Clichy as a rotation risk defender and downgrade him to eg. Cuellar who rotates well with SOT's Clyne and WHU's Demel, and then upgrade Holaman or Guthrie

        With every FFS member doing Torres-Rooney GW2 we could see the highest scoring player of the week drop in value.

        Regardless, with the volume of people doing the transfer you're going to have to do it day 1 or risk being priced out, even 0.1 kills you.

          Question is do you hold for a possible Torres price rise from the casuals first or just get the hell outta there. Those transfers in/out sites are going to be _very_ useful.

          It surprises me that people are so adamant that this is what they will do. Surely football managers need to be more flexible. Torres is a good price and could easily get off to a good start beyond GW1.

          For me I have Tevez and Torres and one of those two will be subbed out for Rooney depending on whichever one appears to be less promising.

        Morning folks!

        Do we seem to have a plan for Robin van Persie? If he stays at Arsenal in the next few weeks, are we all drafting him into our squads, or are we just going to wait and see how the whole transfer scenario plays out?

          Pretty good . Success depends on formation you choose and rotation .I would suggest switch Yaya for an AM who would offer greater goal threat . Possibly Taarabt/Sessgnon . It would free up a couple million to invest elsewhere .

          I would give it 6/10.
