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…
Morning DZers!!!!!! God its good to be around when its slow!!
Open Controlswhen r we xpecting the bonus pts???
Open ControlsAnother big hit week coming up. When was the last time you were able to sit back, with 2 x FT, look at your team and think.........I don't need to make a tranny.
Think it was about Dec last year for me.....Open ControlsHows this looking. I did my FT got a second keeper in (McCarthy). Should i take a hit to get Cameron in or just play Nelsen at H
------Begovic(McCarthy)-----
Baines-Sagna-Wilson(injured)- (Nelsen,Gorkss)
Mata-Cazorla-Pienaar-Bale-(Sterling)
Tevez-RVP-BerbatovOpen Controlsin my humble opinion.......PERFECT wildcard team....nothing more nothing less
p.s Caz for Valencia and Wilson for Huth..............dear.................goldmineOpen ControlsNot my WC team ;). Its my actual team hehe.
I would like to give caz another few chances. I got him for 9.0 and im sure he will come good. Also its nice to have arsenal coverage in attack so i cant get Huth in. The only way is to get a direct replacement for Wilson.
Im looking at Cameron or Cuellar atm.
Thoughts?Open ControlsNobody really bothers with me so no point caring what I think pal.
Cameron btw 🙂Open ControlsThanks. worth a hit or jus tplay Nelsen at home to RDG?
Open Controls
Wildcarders..................
Baines, Bale, Mata, Sterling, Pienaar/Fellaini, Ba, Tevez, RVP.................
Goodnight???Open ControlsAnyone buying Baird as a replacement for Wilson, or waiting to hear more on whether he's also injured? He already went up 0.1 overnight
Open ControlsPPI in the Everton game
Naismith 27
Baines 25
Osman 19
Suarez 12
nice 🙂 feck off SuarezOpen ControlsWill he get PPI pts for his swan dive? the nugget....
Open Controlsgreat celebration even though I dislike the man...
Ala Klinsmann but with an added dig at MoyesOpen Controls
😀
Open Controls
So need some advise....
mannone davis
rafael baines demel cuellar davies
michu cazorla morrison nasri pienaar
rvp ba defoe
have 0.4m in the bank.
Thinking of doing davis to begovic...he will be my keeper for the next 5-6gws since mannone wont play.
should i do cazorla to mata?...not sure how else to improve the team...morrison playing deeper yest has confused me for his game againts southampton
thoughts?Open ControlsREPOST
Begovic
Rafael, Simspon, Baines
Sterling, Santi Cazorla, Mata, Bale
Berbatov, Ba, Van Persie
sub: Etheridge, Nelsen, Gorkss, Gunnarsson
3.3 in the bank
Done my FT Begovic instead of Jaaskelainen
Should i dump Ba or Berbatov instead of Tevez tonight ?
CheersOpen ControlsNo.
Open Controls
Made this claim earlier but had to go as soon as I posted
Next week gonna go Ben Arfa -> Oscar and have Oscar, Mata, Hazard in the midfield! I shall call it the Chelsea Midfield of Doom strategy or C-Mod for short
Watch this site explode with "Should I C-Mod?!" in the next couple of weeks/monthsOpen ControlsSo when Chelsea win 1 nil, or lose 2-1, and Ivanovic sets up Torres you will have 5pts (one y.c) from 3 midfielders who cost you almost 30m, you will be laughing???
🙂Open Controlslol I can't imagine that happening very much, but its better then getting 2 points from Santi and Ben Arfa every week!! >=(
Open Controls
Morning gents, hope you all had a great weekend.
Begovic
Baines / Ridgewell / Nelson
Hazard / Cazorla / Michu / Pienaar
RVP / Suarez / Ba
(Federici / Demel / Clyne / Kebe)
Got 1FT & 0.5m in bank. Am thinking of doing Cazorla > Bale? Wise move?Open Controlsanyone think valencia is a good buy after this week?
Open ControlsYeah he's on my radar.
Open ControlsHe's probably a good buy for as long as Kagawa is out injured. Will definitely start against Arsenal and then a run of easy fixtures so no real need for a diamond formation.
Open ControlsDemi,
Do you not think that SAF will try and go diamond for the easy games to get it right.. He wants another CL trophy and knows that is the only way he will compete but it needs a lot of working on.
not a manu fan but this was my thinking anyhow..Open ControlsHe might do, but just from what i've been seeing so far, Diamond was used against Newcastle(twice), and in the last 2 CL games. I don't think we'll use it much at all, only really in the games where we need to compete in midfield. Kagawa being out means less chance of playing it though.
Open Controlsok thanks Demi.. i am looking at Valencia as well
Open Controls
great! i'm thinking of getting him in for cazorla. should i do it this week or wait til next week?
Open Controls
Yes I think Valencia is a great pick. Assist machine
Open Controlshe had some sweet goals last year too! he really shouldn't have hit that shot wide right at the end of the game this weekend...
Open Controls
Morning lads
Open ControlsMorning mate.
Open ControlsTW.. close H2H we have in Facers league..
Open ControlsGoing ok TW. Managed to have a decent gw for once! How's you? How did u get on?
Open Controlsnice! how do u define decent though? haha.
i'm doing alright. pretty stressed right now, got a lot on my plate. so on here for a bit to give myself a bit of a break after a really busy day and to try to destress a bit.
pretty well. finally got my captain right!! just mad to have an OG in my team a second week in a row... also mad i missed out on kolorov cs by 15 min and that i put rafa second on bench behind michu so michu replaced saylor.... ahh well, guess we're always bound to make mistakes so i should just be glad of a pretty solid showing this week and what looks like a win in la liga after two strait defeatsOpen ControlsNice one mate. I was no having no luck in the council league. 🙁

Foster, Begovic
Baines, Davies, Demel, Cuellar, Gorkks
Nolan, Cazorla, Michu, Bale, Guthrie
Ba, RVP, Aguero
What to do?!
Thank youOpen ControlsSorry £0.4 in bAnk!
Open Controls

Open Controls
Still tinkering with my WC team...
currently looking at...
Bego/Tremmel
McCartney/Caulker/Rafael/Sagna/Simpson
Mata/Bale/Michu/Sterling/ ?
RVP/Tevez/Berba
have 6.9 left to fill that final mid spot - had Nolan in it - but now considering Fellaini/Pienaar....
opinions please gents... anything else i've missed?
ps. i can't afford Ba if i want to keep RVPOpen ControlsKarl...u must be a Manc!!! Legend.
No Baines?
I like it...i like it a lot. No Everton though? Cant squeeze him in for Raf and Sagna, although i do like those two........?Open Controlsi really wanted Baines - but after resisting the charms of RVP for 9 weeks it's looking like i can't afford to leave him out - and RVP in means no Baines unfortunately... just cant have both without a seriously compromised team... *sighs*
Open Controlsps. leaning towards Fellaini rather than Pienaar for Everton cover...
Open Controls
RVP3, Mata2, Rafael1 according to that link then.
Good stuff.Open Controls🙂 is PPI the only method they calculate bonus now ? that i m not sure
Open ControlsHow did you work it out?
Open ControlsUpdated total on that EAPPI site minus the current total on the FPL site.
Open Controls
Morning Guys,
I currently have no Utd or Chelsea coverage so I am weighing up my options. I could:
A) Nolan and Aguero for Taarabt and RVP
B) Nolan and Michu for Taarabt and Oscar this week and Defoe and Berbatov to Rooney and Pog next week.
I want to keep Aguero but RVP looks unstoppable at the moment and Utd's fixtures coming up look very tasty indeed.
What do you reckon?Open ControlsRequiem, good stuff, surely a breakthrough at FFS if true.
Open Controlsagree.. let's see if it works
Open ControlsCheers...though i m not sure as well.
Open Controls
It's been like that all season. Nothing new.
Open Controlsdoes it work though TM?
Open ControlsObviously. Simple maths.
Open Controls
We knew about that site. No one i know thought about the subtraction thing.
Open Controls
Where to start with this team?
Foster, Begovic
Baines, Gibbs, Cuellar, Demel, Davies
Cazorla, Mata, Ben Arfa, Pienaar, Puncheon
RVP, Tevez, Fletcher
2FT, 0.1 in bankOpen ControlsFor who - Berba?
I probably need to transfer out a defender as Gibbs + Demel are injured, but who should I get in?Open Controls
To be honest (and you are in the same pickle as me), I would seriously sort out that midfield mate.
Caz, HBA, Pienaar and Puncheon can all be improved on. At the expense of who though???Open Controls
Wilson is protected against Transfers out correct. He should at least hold at 4.5 before next transfer window?
Open ControlsMorning guys,
A bit of a vague question, but what would you do with this team please?
Assuming Ba and Berba are ok am thinking one of:
A. Federici -> Begovic
B. Kaca -> Kightly
If there is an injury, would you take a hit to do one of the above as well as get a striker in?
Thanks.
Federici
Baines - Hangeland - Cuellar
Bale - Michu - Pienaar - Cazorla
Berbatov - Van Persie - Ba
Jaaskelainen - Kacaniklic - Rangel - Fabio
1.0m in the bankOpen ControlsPlay Nelsen at home to RDG or -4 to bring Cameron in for Wilson.
Open ControlsPlay the seagull
Open Controlslol!
Open Controls
Play Nelson.
Open ControlsIt looks so simple when you ask it like that, definetely play Nelsen.
I would play nelsen ahead of cameron even if you had both of then right now.Open ControlsCool thanks mate!
Open Controls
Thanks all.
Open Controls
Chosing GK is hard...
Foster (home to Southampton)
Begovic (away to Norwich)
Form says Begovic... homegame says Southampton?
Who would you pic?Open ControlsWho's nerve(ous) about Ba?
Open ControlsWilson is protected against Transfers out correct.
He should at least hold at 4.5 before next transfer window?? I cant afford him to dropOpen ControlsTouch-and-go as he only has low ownership. I think you may be ok, though - I'd estimate he'll drop back to 4.5 for the next GW. I won't be helping, though - he's gone for me later in the week after the C1 games.
Open Controls
Berb got 23 cbf calculating other guys in that game.....
Open ControlsHes good for 2 i hope.
