With the Gameweek completed by a classic Anfield tussle, it’s time for our members to scan some of the key statistics from the weekend matches to help identify the form and trends that could help shape future Fantasy selections…

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

    DeGea
    Zab Clyne R.Bernett Hangeland
    Bale Dyer Michu Noble
    Tevez RVP
    Bench: Fed Iva Torres Guthrie

    My plan is to go through the GW3 with Clyne and R.Bernett and so I can save my FT for GW3 during international break. Think two FT during international break would be extremely useful.

      Purely because Gylfi was on the bench on Sat (couldn't believe it! Personally feel he's Spurs' biggest goal/assist threat)

    Begovic , Mignolet
    Rangel , Rafael , Ivanovic , Simpson , Demel
    Hazard , Michu , Sterling , Fellani , Kagawa
    RVP , Tevez , Graham

    that’s after using wildcard.. not sure whether to put Sterling back to Guthrie yet or not..i just think he’ll start against arsenal.. might swap Hazard to Yaya just for the week but I’d just be happy with having Fellani , Michu , Sterling and Kagawa in my midfield for GW3..we’ll see..

    How do people think Torres will perform when Chelsea sign another striker (Cavani or Hulk). Will he be a rotation risk or still be the main striker? I think he likes playing the lone role with a supporting player like hazard, think another striker could upset Torres' game.

    At least if i WC next week i'll know exactly who's signed who!

        I think Tony's nailed on wit Nani not at his best! Agree with you bot Nasri though!

      Long term it may pay off. Even with rotation United's wingers are likely to both score and assist a whole lot. All three did well last season.

      I'd be more concerned about having Nasri than having Kag and Valencia.

        Most of them out here feel the same way!! Especially wit the kinda formation City are playing!! But some Nasri-bias has made me have him right from the beginning!

      If they both play 60 minutes then you already make back the cost of the hit. Do it.

      Both. I think United could spank Southampton, and Baines is a monster.

      Both. My new mini league leader took an 8pt hit this week... Got 92pts . Sometimes when players are good and other players aren't playing hits can work out.

        Thanks. I have Pog (and Michu) already in my team and don't want to take an additional hit to get Graham

    Will Torres rise twice this week or should I just bring in RVP to avoid the price rise. If Torres rises twice then I don't need to do it now as is doesn't make a difference
