There were some unfamiliar names on top of the ICT Index this week, snuggled alongside the return to form of Carlos Tevez and Leighton Baines, while Juan Mata and Robin Van Persie again provided shifts to acquire another wave of Fantasy attention. The Members Area is packed with the latest data from the weekend’s games and our Big Numbers article has picked through the goodies to find the stats that caught our eye…
Irony of ironies
Rival has Defoe. Had that gone in he would have only got 1 extra point, but I would have got 3 more (Lennon assist). Damned annoyingOpen ControlsAmazing skill by Fonte
Open ControlsIs this pure madness for an 8 point hit??
Out Rangel, maloney, Berb....... In Ba, Cameron, Obertan (Need 4.2 mid fr this to work)
Will leave Mid as Mata Bale Caz Nolan Obertan
Forwards RVP Tevez BaOpen ControlsMad. Stop immediately!
Ba possibly injured. Cameron not worth a hit. Obertan useless.Open ControlsYes....can't really see the point
Open ControlsReally should wait on berbs and ba injury news.
Rangel to Cameron, heck yeah.Open ControlsCheers lads for feedback will just do rangel to cameron with FT and maybe maolney to Kightly week after

Why are soton defenders more of a threat than the rest of the team put together?
Open Controlsdisgraceful celebration by bale..its to be expected his partner is sporting a wizards sleeve after the birth of his kid but was no need to rub it in
Open ControlsWhat did he do? Chuck the placenta at Sot players????
Open ControlsI think you need to relax with a stiff drink. I want to see a HIC! in that grav 😉

Why is there so much love for Morrison? His upcoming fixtures don't look that good. Care to explain please?
Open ControlsHe's good.
Open ControlsPlaying the worst premier league defence EVER next week
Open Controls
Players you want but have never owned this year...
For me....
Defenders: Vertonghen, Kolarov, Ridgewell, Sagna, Huth.
Midfielders: Ramirez, McAnuff, Oscar, Hoilett, Valencia.
Forwards: Kone, Holt, Lukaku, Jelavic, Podolski.Open ControlsSooooo....
You actually want Podolski?Open Controlsall of the above defenders
Mids Bale, Valencia, McAnuff, Pienaar
Forwards Ba, Kone, Lukaku, FletcherOpen ControlsRafael Cole Baird Riise
Duff Lallana Taarabt Morrison
Ba DefoeOpen ControlsOnly ones I'd want are: Vert, Kolarov, Sagna, Huth, Ridgewell, Ramirez, Oscar, Jelavic
Open ControlsFor me: Kolarov, Lallana, Silva, Santi, Rooney, Huth, Oscar, Riise, Defoe
Open Controls
The Deuce
Open ControlsMorrison
Berbatov DefoeOpen Controls1 week too early i think.
Open Controls
Most of the Chelsea midfield.
Also wishing I'd not done Suarez to Tevez this week, the racist looked good again.
Trying to find a way to get Tony V in for United's good run. Other than golden balls, has there been a winger with his quality of delivery in the history of the prem?Open ControlsRafael Caulker Wisdom
Mata Cazorla gerrard Lallana
Jelavic Defoe LukakuOpen ControlsSidwell.seriously.
Open ControlsBegovic
Rise, Johnson, Huth, Jevans
Mata, Valencia, Dempsey, Nolan, Barfa, Pienaar,

SANDRO HAHAHAHAHAHA
Open ControlsBego
Gorkss Baines ridgewell Hangeland
Michu mata Cazorla
Lambert RVP Tevez
Foster noble Demel Pienaar
I have 2 FT and only 0.2 in the bank. Was looking to go Demel > Baird but 0.1 short and he looks to be rising tonight? Any other ideals? I can't get bale in for Cazorla, not sure I want to but feel I need spurs cover.
CheersOpen ControlsThe stats have Cazorla beating Mata in most departments. Really stuck as to whether to bring Mata in. Also Caz has amazing fixtures GW11-21. Advice would be appreciated.
Open ControlsQuestion is which stats exactly. I watch him every game and this is what he does. Pass, pass, pass, pass, teammate loses the ball. Pass, pass, pass, teammate misses. Give up on teammates. Shoot off target. Repeat.
Open ControlsKeeping caz for me. Mata is on fire but swansea away wont be that easy- their mojo and defense are back i feel
Open Controls
Don't recall seeing Lambert once in the highlights.
Everything points to selling, but he will obviously score if I do.Open ControlsPlease sell.
Open ControlsNice try Lambert owner.
Open ControlsIn all seriousness.. I am getting an itchy trigger finger. But then I look at his fixtures.. and I am certain he will come good. Worth a punt given his value.
Open ControlsThats exactly why I got the bugger. Value.
How many games does he have to draw blanks before he's unacceptable value?
I'd say already.Open ControlsI've had him for 3. I'm inclined to give him another 3.. but monitoring.
Harder for me to shift, no £ in the bank means I'm kinda stuck with him unless I perform some surgery on my squad. And happy enough with the rest to stick for meantime.Open ControlsThat is the Lambert trap. You cannot escape.
Open Controls
It still stings seeing RVP doing so well for United. What a player.
Open ControlsThat must hurt. Sorry man...
Open Controlsi know how you feel..seeing torres at chelsea hurts my sides
Open Controls- Open Controls
need to sort my defense out what do you guys think:
Out Saylor Wilson
In:
a) rafael Nelsen
b) Clichy WilkinsonOpen ControlsSame issue, woul appreciate bet combination to replace Wilson and Saylor.
Have Hangeland, Baines and Clyne as my other defenders and just 0.1 in the bank.Open Controls
Is Ba injured?
Open ControlsWouldnt mind knowiing this actually..
Open ControlsOn Ba's injury he added: "He just feels like there is a nerve issue goi
ng on, so we are going to have to inspect that and see what it turns up this week."

Have we given up on Baps being allocated tonight?
Open ControlsYeah, they've all had their hot chocolate and gone to sleep i think. Lazy c*nts.
Open ControlsTempted to write an angry email demanding my money back..
Open Controls
They still haven't found anyone from the PA with 10 seconds to spare to rule on the disputed assists... 🙄
Night allOpen Controls
should I get rid of Torres for Suarez this week and lose 4pts? You reckon Torres is likely to fall in value?
Open ControlsI think you should link your team so folks can make a proper judgement.
Open Controls
Pulled the trigger on HBA to Mata. Anxious about Ba and Berbs (plus have Demel and Clark on the physio's bench) but couldn't afford it as a free change if I'd waited.
Open ControlsYou joke. Ive seen 2 people who are/were in the top 5-10 (not much seperating them) in my league, and one took a 16pt hit, the other a 40pt hit. Both still had their wildcards available..
Open ControlsOne guy in my league has spent his wildcard and has made 17 other transfers, including 5 tonight for a 16 point hit.
Open Controls
Cazorla -> Mata... gotta be considered//done right?
Open ControlsBego Foster
Ridg Baines Clyne Cuellar Demel
Fellaini Sterling Hazard Michu Cazorla
Crouch Ba RVP
I made Lambert to Crouch last night
1 in the bank
Am I good?Open ControlsI have to say, it feels good having Ba in my team. Hope he's not too injured, might have to get Papiss in...
Open ControlsAnd I thought Cisse was back. LOL! What a terrible goal.
Open ControlsBut maybe that's what he needs. One fluky goal to give him a little confidence and the floodgates shall open. Especially if Ba is out for any length of time.
Open Controls
screw it, Caz and AJ to Mata and Morrison done. Just can't afford to wait. If Berba is out next week I will just play Kebe. (I might also just change my name now, I have no chance of winning this bet)
On another note. RvP deniers, look at his history, he has returned something in EVERY game that he has started. Since he is still learning at United, things can only go up for him IMO. For me he will be THE captain choice for the next 5 weeks.Open ControlsNice one. Solid hit IMO.
Open Controlswe have a bet on McAnuff and Kebe don't we?
Open Controls
So he should for 13.5 million
He needs to definitely start EVERY game though, AND be on pens. Thats the issuesOpen ControlsIt's not about whether he starts every game. Owning any City or United is a risk, but it's more of a risk not to own him. He will also be on pens.
Open Controls
Can everyone remember the Graham hype pre-season? 😉 😆
Open ControlsIt was of Boseli-like proportions. Mostly because he scored 6 in pre-season and his manager said he will go on to score 20 goals.
Open ControlsIndeed I do
I also remember the 'I'm waiting and seeing on Michu, he will probably be a mssive fail' talk.
So glad i ignored both.Open ControlsNah, I was concentrating on Michu 😉
Open Controls
santi and guthrie -> mata and sterling
Open ControlsOK folks need some advice. I already have Hazard, so I am thinking Santi >> Mata or Santi >> Bale.
Doubling up on Chelsea may be crazy, but Mata is on great form and Hazard has been so consistent getting points.
On the other hand, is Bale a fixture proof season keeper?Open ControlsIf you have bale you must commit to having him for ages. Can't predict exactly when he'll score and I took a risk captaining him this week.
As a Gooner I approve of caz to Mata.Open ControlsPersonally, I like Bale just because he will play every minute. Mata/Hazard still have the slight threat of rotation with Champions League and will get hauled off at 60-70 minutes at every opportunity. That said, Chelsea might score enough goals that 60 minutes of Mata is better than 90 minutes of Bale.
Open ControlsI made the Cazorla>Mata sub earlier, and now have Hazard + Mata. It makes sense; Hazard has hit the ground running, and Mata is on form and one of the classiest players the Premiership has seen for a while.
