Gareth Bale tops the ICT Index for Gameweek 25, with a change in position significantly boosting the Welshman’s stats in Tottenham’s trip to West Brom. Unsurprisingly, Moussa Sissoko and Marouane Fellaini both rank in our top five after bagging a brace apiece at the weekend, while Jay Rodriguez and Adel Taarabt also feature highly for their respective displays for Southampton and QPR last Saturday:

Our members can, of course, get the full data behind the Index scores via our members area but, as always, we’ve compiled our guide to the figures that turned our heads in Gameweek 25…

    If you could have all three who would you captain?

    a) Suarez
    b) Gerrard
    c) Sturridge

      Suarez if you want to play it safe, one of the other two if you want to try and get an edge on your rivals.

      It’s between Studge and Suarez for me. If Sturridge is fit, I’ll find it pretty hard to resist

      I have 'em all and I'm going to go with Suarez. Most likely to get 180 i think. If ever Gerrard might get a little time off it's if we're comfortably beating one of these two when we have a trip to russia in between.

    Is a Liverpool DEF needed/recommended... I already have 4 DGW's - Davies, Michu, Sturridge & Suarez.

    I have 1FT left, so is it better to keep and transfer 2 out next GW or bring in Enrique/Johnson?

                If I was a Liverpool fan, I'd have no problem with that. Four of GJ, Agger, Skrtel, Coates and Enrique? Wisdom?

                I dunno... I just feel that Carra is yesterday's man.

              he's been excellent the last two and i think Rodgers will keep his run going. Skrtel to play in Russia, Carra to play both league games. I wouldn't spend 8 pts to get a Liv defender in though.

    If you look at the last two doubles, Chelsea then Arsenal were the two big teams. Realistic attacking options like Lampard, Hazard Mata and Ba then Cazorla, Walcott, Podolski and Giroud all done better than defenders. Gerrard, Sturridge and Suarez look the best three to have.

        I'd lose any for a hit then just buy them back tbh. It would have worked out ok in any of the previous two gameweeks. It obviously carries a risk but there were plenty folk with 100 plus scores in previous 2 doubles. Got to go for it.

          He is at home and he's not against one of the top teams, I wouldn't risk it for a hit, he could easily get an assist or a goal and even if he doesn't you'll be hard pressed to find anyone near that price range that'll have a strong chance of scoring 6+ to make the hit worthwhile.

          I can't see the benefit in that to be honest. Save your points and have a better team (and presumably save a further 4 pt hit?) for GW27. Fellaini will be confident too having dominated the Utd defence earlier in the season.

            I wont be needing a hit the following week as I only have 4 DGWers.

            I am also concerned that Gibbs is a doubt for GW27, and this could cause me a problem with starters at a premium due to blank. ahhh.

              I would definitely do a). Gibbs->GJ could gain 8-10pts or so. Gibbs->Daws may only gain a couple (i see WHU scoring) and Fell->Gerrard could be maybe 6-8. So similar overall points gain but you're spending 4pts to do the latter.

                  and if you require further help and haven't had a look, use the RMT tool. It's excellent and I suspect may back up my guesses.

                  One caveat, I ditched RvP last night so I think any advice I give should come with a big health warning!

          I have had a cracking run since Xmas and am now only 18 behind my £800 ML leader. I have something to lose now. To be honest, I am pretty sure he has brought Gerrard in (spying on bank balance :lol:) so might just cover of that risk as there is plenty of time to claw back 18 points under normal playing conditions..

    Never mind the GW27 blank for Pool Swans its the GW29 blank that scares me.

    Arsenal and Chelsea both have Europe the week after so they are almost certain to have a blank (can't see them losing in Cup) so that brings Everton and Fulham down with them. Other teams could rearrange their game for midweek as I see it.

    So that's Walcott Mata Sagna and Fellaini for me, would like to keep Walcott and Mata as they have great games following. For those looking to bring in Fellaini for Michu after DGW I'd keep this in mind, the week following City rock up at Goodison.
