A decidedly tepid Gameweek which saw the big guns misfire. Oliver Giroud at last made an impression, Santi Cazorla boosted his reputation, while two of the “template squad” were rejuvenated as Eden Hazard and Michu delivered. Our members can hoover up all the data from the weekend action and, as usual, we’ve picked up the numbers that have caught our eye so far…

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

    Awful week for my team, only got 43 points, went from 44,555 in the world to 82,552. Think I have to much money spent on certain players. Thinking about wildcard

    Howard - Fed (inj)
    Baines - Cole - Gibbs - McCartney - Barnett
    Bale - Yaya - Michu - Sterling - Pienaar
    RVP - Fletcher - Berba (inj/75%)

    1 FT, 0.5m in bank, I want Cazorla - maybe downgrade Cole and upgrade Yaya to Cazorla.
    Also thinking is RVP worth the price he is? And having Howard when I have Baines.

      Berba will be back after the break (with a bang) and Everton's fixtures look great so you wont be needing Fed.

    Really getting fed up with my decision making this season. I think if I hadn't logged in since finalising my WC team for GW4 I'd have been better off. Nothing like an international break to dwell over it.

        Yeah, that was a big mistake. I didn't think it had been confirmed though? Maybe I missed the news.

        I felt that Fellaini was a better option. I made the same mistake with Hazard>Bale this week. The only good transfer I've made since wildcarding was Tevez>Jelavic last week. I backed iut if captaining him for his 16 point haul though.

    Nice jump from 490k to 300k, slowly climbing after a poor start. Would appreciate thoughts on whether I should WC as my knee is jerking, I only have 1 FT and 0m in the bank and have quite a few areas I want to sort out…

    current team:

    Mig / Fed

    Baines / Fonte / Demel / Hughes / Lescott

    Haz / Bale / Pienaar / Michu / Maloney

    RVP / Fletcher / Graham

    Pull the trigger?

    I need to drop Naughton — a gamble that really didn't pay off as he got injured as quickly as he was in, he was out.

    Got £4.5m:

    Wisdom - fixtures are mixed bag but Liverpool are settling into a rythym
    Cuellar - OK fixtures but no a differential
    Wison - Stoke are gunning it at home - mixed fixtures for a few weeks more (+ I have Begovich)

    Or maybe someone else?

      Both sideways moves. I think Hazard is a better long term [prospect than mata. I'm keeping him.

      Yaya to silva is probably a good move but only if you have nothing else that needs fixing.

    I don't know about anyone else but for some reason I always have it in my head that 45-55 is always a decent score...no matter what happens...purely because an average of 50-60 is the aim. If you go lower than that then something is going wrong or your luck is out...if you remain above 50...you're probably doing something right with a bit of luck...

    44 points means every player on your team theoretically might have scored 4 points...that's not too shabby. Anything lower is of course a pain. But if you can go on a run of 70 point weeks by any chance...you are effectively gaining 20 points extra to compensate for those average weeks...most decent players of FPL will be able to maintain this...I like to think of it like this to save myself from going mad! Probably just rambling sorry...
