Arsenal’s battling performance at the Etithad and a dramatic second-half turnaround at the Lane bring Gameweek 5 to a close. Our members can now let the dust settle on their Fantasy scores before gorging on all the stats from all the weekend’s matches, or just read on for the numbers that piqued our interest…

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

      I would be cautious with Tevez, possibly under threat of position & rotation. Suarez has a nice run of fixtures & he is .5 cheaper & of course is always threatening isn't too difficult to upgrade to Tevez again. Superb Hat-Trick @ Norwich last season & they have them next.

      Difficult one, but has to be one of the big hitter.

      Santi, Hazard, RVP or Tevez...

      Maybe consider downgrading Tevez to Lambert/Fletcher? Would give you the extra funds... although personally id just swap out Ivanovic if you can do it.

          Does this sound good. Utilise free transfer each week.

          So based on fixtures and the dilemma of who to choose out of in form Lambert, Berbatov and Fletcher...

          GW 6 - My striker (Graham out) Fletcher vs Wigan at home in.
          GW 7 - (Fletcher out) Lambert vs Fulham at home in.
          GW 8 - (Lambert out) Berbatov vs Villa at home in.

          Thoughts?

                Backwards if you ask me.

                They had essentially 2 defensive mids and a working wing in and he still barely sniiffed the box. Santi is almost a season keeper. Yaya's objectives change with Mancini's mood. He's a victim of a manager's negative tactics. Santi will never be.

                Keep him unless you really have a crap three at the back this week. No better options at that price range (I realise he is hurt).
