While Sunday brought a rather tepid conclusion to the weekend’s action, the lack of incident allowed us more time to digest the numbers behind the Gameweek so far. In this latest foray into the depths of our members data, we offer further insight on the performances of Adel Taarabt, Raheem Sterling and David Silva not only for this weekend, but the last four Gameweeks and season so far. As for Glen Johnson, well, we’ll let the numbers do the talking…
Jones/Rafael = Rotation risk ??????????
I have Rafael. Should i sell him?Open Controlsdon't think so....
rafael was rested becuz of 15 consecutive starts i guess....
nonetheless jones looked quite dangerous vs sunderlandOpen Controls
hands up if you think this all-Spanish team will do better than your team over the Christmas period.
DDG
enrique azpilicueta cuellar garrido
mata michu silva cazorla gomez/j.garcia
torres
subs: reina rangel/chico suso (who cares?)Open Controlsfellani suspended????
Open ControlsMy UEFA H2H coming down to the wire.
Me: 5pts + Sagna
Him: Santi + ShoreyOpen ControlsThis GW will be the biggest yet because there are so many captaincy choices. Picking the right player (and getting lucky) and you're laughing. The wrong one and...drinking heavily!
Open Controlsis your username a real United cheer? thats a terrible cheer.
Open ControlsYes but not used a lot - usually you just hear Rooooobin Van Perrrrrrrrsie!
Sounds about right given what he did at City last week! 🙂Open ControlsYes that is a very poor chant. This is much better 😀

Open Controls
Torres Magic, 2nd consecutive green arrow for the two of us (after subs kick in)... 😀
what's your plan for next GW? We gotta keep the greens rolling in!Open ControlsNo guarantee of a green tbh. Either Morrison or Berb to make way or both.
Open ControlsFor who? Morrison might play deep for Mulumbu i hear..
Open ControlsFor who? Morrison out so might play deep for Mulumbu i hear..
Open Controls
Did anyone tell us last night about a dream that Walcott will play today?
Open ControlsMy girlfriend has dreams about Theo Walcott all the time, rarely, i suspect, do they involve football 🙁
Open Controls
Just checked out Tevez vs Aguero in the members area.....Tevez it is
Open ControlsTHinking of downgrading Fellaini to someone really cheap (bench fodder)
and upgrading Suarez to RVP for a hit....thoughts?Open ControlsRVP is a must. I think you know the answer.
Open Controls
Felli/Fletch->Punch/Tevez for -4 OR
Felli/nolan->Mata/Punch for -4(Keep fletch and sell in gw 19)Open ControlsCan you just afford Felli > Mata/Silva?
Open ControlsI have Silva.
Can't afford Mata or tevez without a hit.
I can afford yaya though in for felli...LOLOpen Controls...and fletcher->Dzeko...
😯Open ControlsGet Mata and Punch imo. Think im getting Silva this week, maybe Mata for a hit soon as well, gotta find the cash.
Open ControlsYeah, then I can maybe to fletcher to Berba(SOUTH/SWANS/wba/WIGAN) in gw 19.
And fix the mess with Jan WC as soon its availableOpen Controls
OMG! Fellaini is banned for NINE Games. 😯
Open Controls- Open Controls
Yes Sorry, Bcoz of misleading the Sun 's headline.
Open Controls
WTF! The Sun's headline is just misleading!
Open Controls🙄
Open ControlsMarouane Fellaini to face 9-game ban for Ryan Shawcross butt
The Sun - 4 hours ago
🙄 🙁Open Controls
For real??? Might never play for everton again...
Open Controls
Thinking of doing this for the craic this week
Fellaini > Puncheon
Berbatov > Aguero (c)
4 point hit
Logical?Open ControlsI can't wait to buy Berbatov.
He is due.Open ControlsI find it hard to imagine Aguero not scoring against Reading...Berbatov is suffering from Fulham's averageness and I'd prefer this to Berbatov away to Pool. I'll likely want Berba back if he hits form again but it's really testing everyone's patience especially when he did next to nothing against QPR.
Open ControlsI wish I could fit Kun into my team. Best I can do is Tevez, and I have a bad feeling somewhere between now and Xmas Mankini will lose the plot again and piss on everyones parade.
Cue Dzeko hattrick vs Reading.Open ControlsHmmm Not sure...Dzeko was pretty poor against Newcastle. I don't think he deserves a start...but yeah Mankini acts in mysterious ways.
Open ControlsReading will concede more then 3 minimum. If Mankini wants to rotate or rest then this will be the game me thinks.
Sun/nor both away could be tough.Open Controls
Funny feeling that it's the match for Dzeko to score 5 goals and Aguero is benched. 😆
Open Controls
Yep. I am just in the process of doing Enrique + Fellani -> GJ + Taarabt for -4
I know it's a stupid move for a hit but meh.Open Controls
Ivanovic to Shawcross
Fellaini to Mata
Suarez to Tevez
8pt hit?Open Controlstil WC then he is goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooone
Open Controlsnope, he was class yesterday, always got subbed off in time to give you CS
Open Controlsagreed but he has zero attacking threat, it is painful to watch him....
Open Controls- Open Controls
Shawcross away to Spurs over Ivanovic home to Villa? I know Ivanovic is probably overpriced and not the best option but I'd say the CS chances are strong. Stoke's fixtures are nasty.
Open Controlsneed City cover and can afford mata withou second hit.....
Open ControlsThe Iva downgrade will allow him to do the Fellaini to Mata move. Only reason why.
Open ControlsDon't get Shawcross though...Stoke's CS are going to take a nosedive eventually...they're riding their luck.
Open Controls
Ivanovic will likely get a CS
Mata is a good idea
Selling a striker who has a home game isn't always the best idea. May come back to haunt you.Open Controlsany reason why considering mata over bale?
I am struggling to choose between the 2.Open ControlsAlso ask that question. Does it mean that people doesn't think he'll be fit to next GW?
Open Controls
Just kidding. These are not great moves imo. Why not go cheaper in defence so you don't have to take 2 hits? Shawcross has terrible fixtures and is on 4 yellows
Open Controls
Fellaini an Bale didn't drop, perhaps tonight?
Open ControlsCant wait for everyone to sell berb so Tina and myself can buy him cheap, and watch the pts roll in... 😆
Open ControlsSo....
Nathan Baker
Discuss.Open Controlshe's cheap, that is all. He doesn't look as though he offers anything else. C;ark or Lowton are the Villa defenders to have.
I'm looking at one to maybe replace Huth in GW21, though I might just get Guzan and look elsewhereOpen ControlsI need a cheap defender to afford my plan, and he fits the bill.
Open Controls
But they're playing 3 at the back, one of which is a midfielder. Surely Vlaar will replace him?
Open ControlsCould go either way tbh. But if Baker retains his spot, he'll be a great value pick.
I think Clark and Lowton are better picks though; unless you really need to go cheap.Open Controls
I think he will be, so long as they stick with the 3-5-2. I can't see why Lambert would change this seeing as it has worked so well.
Open Controls
morning lads
so did Long to Benteke last night
Big risk I know given the fixtures, but WBA and Long have no form (and Norwich do) whilst Villa and Benteke do. It's form over fixtures for me.
Now for Fellani. It's Mata or Silva for me, but which one? Will get get the other next week.Open ControlsThinking Silva this week, then Mata next(Mata has mid-week match vs Leeds, City playing Reading)
Open ControlsYou need to get Silva shirely. Form over fixtures....
Villa just beat Lpool at Anfield....Reading is kek....Open Controlsbut could be rested, we've seen it before. Especially if he plays on Weds.
Open Controlsfair enough
I have silva for a few GWs, and only thing he got me is 6pts. this week!Open ControlsI don't have access to members site, but Maybe have a squizz their. Maybe there are some stats to back up Silva? He looked very good vs ManU and could easily have had 10+ pts.
Open Controls
I'm talking about their respective opponents.
Who would you rather play at the moment. Villa or Reading?Open Controls
cheers lads, Silva it is
I got myself so hung up on Aguero that I couldn't see the wood for the trees but given the currrent balance of my team, Silva is easy to get, and won't get rested/rotated. Aguero can wait till Jan wc when I have the freedom to re-jig.Open Controls
I can field a decent front 7 next week, if fellaini is benched,
michu silva walcott morrison
giroud suarez berba
if I bring in bale/mata for fellaini, it will mean benching morrison.
should I still do that FT?
otherwise, I would do hughes/cuellar>GJ/Zab/WalkerOpen ControlsBego, Tremmel
Sagna, Gallas, Hughes, Cuellar, Demel
Bale, Silva, Michu, Sess, Sterling
RVP, Suarez, Fletcher
0.3 banked, who to get in for Sess next week? Up to 7.7Open Controlshmm tough call, you could downgrade Fletcher as well, this might be better as Fletcher was subbed off with an injury at half-time.
Open ControlsIf hes injured ill just play 5mids. Fletch > Berb GW19.
Open Controls
Next week? Ask next week if you play him this week.
Open Controls
Leagues Update
FPL Open : 55 entrants - 256 spots
Elite 64 : 43 entrants - 64 spots
After Xmas League : 60 enteredOpen ControlsFelaini to Mata requires Ivanovic to ? (Maybe Mertasacka) 4pts hit
Or keep Ivan and do Felaini to someone
Or ignore FPL and drink over Xmas?Open ControlsDrink & make transfers for FPL in 5 minutes then back to drinking.
Open Controls
I can't believe so many put so much faith in Suarez...and now everyone owns an expensive waste of time who gets a yellow every game and shoots off target 9 times a match...poor souls 🙁
Open ControlsHe has to score vs Fulham.
Open ControlsYea I enjoyed it a lot more when not a lot of people owned him and he got me 40 points 🙁
Open ControlsAt least nailed on for Christmas, and scores 75% of Pool's goals.
Open ControlsAnd how many goals do Liverpool score? Not many...You can get the same thing by buying Ba 😉
Open Controls
My bad. He never scores when I own him 😳 🙁
Open ControlsThanks in advance for letting us all beat you in FPL
Open Controls
Play Sess or get Silva in for Fellaini by 4p hit?
Open ControlsA: Fellani >>> yaya/Lennon
B: Fellani >>> snodgrass/dembele this week and sess >>> bale/silva/matanext week nt won't have any city/chel/spur coverage this week then
C:Fellani + Enrique/Rafael >>> bale/silva/mata + Clark/Hughes
D: Fellani + sess >>> any mid upto 6 + bale/silva/mata
E: Fellani + berb >>> punch + augero
Options C D E involve hits bt am leaning towards C and next week will do sess >>> LennonOpen ControlsTina, you really gunna (C) Silva this week? Never really crossed my mind as was gunna leave it on Van the Man.
Open ControlsPeople are just pillaging their defences atm. Me included. Not long now before we see the odd Hooiveld, Golobart & Chalobah in RMTs
Open ControlsIm happy as i have 5 healthy defenders going into the New Year. So glad I ditched Gorkss, just hope i can get some Sagna returns tmrw!

Right now 21 points would have you ranked 1,998,964 for the gameweek.
With 1 more match and autosubs stil to come how many points do we think it will take for cup qualification?
