Olivier Giroud tops our ICT Index rankings for the Gameweek so far, courtesy of his contribution to Arsenal’s late show at the Emirates. In this week’s “Big Numbers” for members, we break down the Frenchman’s performance, whilst offering hope to those who placed the armband with Santi Cazorla. We also cast an eye on the numbers produced at the Britannia, as Wayne Rooney shifted to a midfield role, paving the way for Robin Van Perise to break his dry spell from the spot.
will Giroud be stripped off the goal and will it be counted as a Bassong OG?

ok i've had enough
chirstina runs away so there is no point to stay on
time to get back at job
have a good day ladsOpen ControlsI think you may be onto something with Suarez(c)... I'll get back to you at the end of this GW.
Open Controlsbefore i go
-check last few games liverpool vs chelsa
-check suarez stats
-we seen that chelsa defence is not great
-he will be hunger for goals after few blanks
-he really need upgrade his goal tally
-it's nice to C player in big matchs cause those games are ussualy highscoringOpen ControlsHmm 9 points away.
The only thing I don't like is when Sturridge plays down the middle.
Suarez is more dangerous centrally, where he can run at defenders and shoot.Open Controls
Doesnt Van Persie get an assist for that peno?
Open ControlsFor those who haven't already seen it.
Camzy getting hit on.

Even though I wildcarded this week, Michu in this week is such a no brainer right?
Current midfield is Fellaini Cazorla Maloney Walcott YayaOpen Controls

And what kind of biscuit would that be ?
A - ginger nut
B - Bourbon cream
C - Rich Tea
Ps remember not to dip too long long your tea as sometimes 'saving' it can be put Simpli - a disaster 😉Open ControlsD - Digestive. 😉
Although I like A too!!!Open Controls
That's sleek, I'm running a bit low at 40 (-4) with 6 DGWers to go. Should have gone to GiRoud (c).
Open ControlsCheers D , up to 2714k and 10 to go , yours is decent I presume your non wc.
Open Controls
Anyone looking at Lukaku? Those next 4 fixtures couldn't get any better + a probable 30 minutes vs City added in there.
Open ControlsI'd love to, but I'm too worried about gametime. I know there's been a pattern of him playing 2 strikers in the easier fixtures, but rather get someone who is guaranteed gametime.
Open Controls
I was looking at him but i think it was Berbily who pointed out that he could be benched frequently from now on as he won't be in the WBA team next season.
Open ControlsMe - Never ! I adhere to orders at all times 😉
In the bag you reckon Tw ?Open Controls
:D. good man!

same scenario as Courtois
entry into 1st XI blocked by the already presentOpen Controls
Him and Morisson. Both good shouts.
Open Controls
evans replacement for the next two? already have baines & zaba, WC for GW36. Currently thinking nothing. Cheers!
Open ControlsVertonghen?
Open ControlsPossibly yes, not liking the MCY fixture though. He's definitely in for the double when wildcarding after GW35.
Open Controls
Dawson or Azp. Azp has played every minute the last 5 matches in all competitions, he's definitely first choice RB and carries good attacking threat.
Open ControlsI like Azpi long term but just for the next 2 his liv away fixture slightly puts me off. Just noticed Samba (STO, rdg) !
Open Controls
OT: Was at the eden gardens yesterday. So ecstatic. And finally a win for the KnightRIDERS. 😀
Open ControlsNoice. Well done.
Average game though. Didn't get a fight.Open Controls
please help..
1. Pick 3 to start :
Distin (sun)
Nasty (tot)
Clyne (swa)
Sagna (ful)
Dawson (MCI)
2. Pick 1 to bench :
Giroud (ful)
Cazorla (ful)
Fellaini (sun)
Maloney (whu)
thanksOpen Controls
both man city vs wbrom and chelsea vs spurs game will be in dgw 36 too?
Open Controlsi think so. dates not confirmed yet though
Open Controls
I asked a few of you last night but
is Carroll a genuine fantasy football option?
Yes, he has a hefty price tag but is very consistent...Open Controls
About 40 points behind the top 100. I want in!!
How many dgw'ers you planning to get for gw36?Open Controls6-8 i think
Open Controls8, if Davies even counts (could just play Baines)
Lampard too.
Ugh.Open ControlsZaba, Dawson, Davies, Mata, Bale, Michu at least for me. That's for no hits. You think i need more?
Open ControlsVertonghen. You need Vertonghen.
Open ControlsHmm... Could get tricky... He's a bit pricey compared to Sagna. But i do agree he's doing very well atm.
Open Controls5 goals 3 assists... maybe he IS worth the premium over Dawson.
Open Controls
not been in the fantasy world lately,
so
We are having DGW in gw36 for Wigan, Swansea, Mancity,Spurs,WBA ?
and what about chelsea?Open ControlsAny update on the Silva situation?
Open Controls
Doosra, where do you get those numbers you've displayed above? Some sort of handicap betting?
Such as che -331Open Controlshazard or mata? or lamps?
Open ControlsFirst two got that double coming up. Clyne would rotate really well with say Turner. Anyone else you could ditch?
Open ControlsIn order of who I would ship (assuming no WC): Clyne >>> Davies > Dawson. Gotta go with DGW.
Is Zaba the best choice for a City defender though? I have him, and I'm slightly worried about Maicon/Richards getting a game before the end. Nasta instead?Open Controlsi could get nasty too. i'll wait and see as i'm probably not doing any transfers this week
you would ship clyne over davies? hmmm. he does have a dgw but he's been shiite fpl wiserecently... 🙁 and naylor is coming backOpen Controls
For this week , wait till pressers and monitor Davies either way I can't see him playing the double so I would ditch tbh TW
Open Controls
Very interesting team selection by Fergie yesterday. Rooney is no stranger to playing in front of the back four this season having done so on about six occasions early on in the season. Those selections were forced in many ways though due to United's early season injuries. I can't help thinking that yesterdays "choice" was a signal of the new role for Rooney next season...He was good at it as well...for a while..
Open ControlsI think we'll get more info during the transfer window as well. If SAF buys a new striker and keeps the ones he has, it's looking like a definite possibility.
Open Controlsit was a sure indication i guess. Saf denied Falcao rumor, just like degea rumor. When Falcao comes, Rooney will have the Cm position, just like Scholes, started as a striker and was shifted back gradually
Open ControlsYeah...I think yesterday was the first real signal of that. RVP was a bit of a lazy signing by United standards really. Not lazy as in a player but the actual signing of a finished article at 31 years old..Rooney is well suited to a CM/CDM role, Wellbeck is a decent player but a bit of a head down and run player...Yeah, another striker would be about right if he shifts Rooney back permanently..
Open Controls
I really like Carrick and Rooney as a central midfield partnership.
Open Controls
He just knew I had him, that's why. 🙁

Do we think Aguero will get a ban for his attack on Luiz, and if so, for how many games?Open ControlsSomebody convince me not to give up...
Is my team ok??
Jussi
Zabaleta Baines Rafael
Hazard Snoddy(vc) Cazorla Fellaini
Rooney(c) Lambert Sturridge
Bunn Gervinho Azpilli DaviesOpen ControlsSnodster! Long time no see. I'd be a bit worried about Sturridge's gametime and your keeper combo, although West Ham have good fixtures coming up now.
Open ControlsDon't talk to me about my keeper combo!! I accidentally sold Mignolet instead of Bunn!!
Open Controls
"Hutton dressed as Lahm" is the best team name in FPL history, and for that reason it would be a crime against wordplay to give up.
Open ControlsThanks Stilicho. 🙂
Open ControlsThink of all the poor sods soldiering on with mediocre ranks AND a mediocre pun.

Monreal injured/benched/rested against Norwich?
Open Controls5 weeks to go now 🙁 ,
So whose your Fantasy player of the year ?
And biggest Dissapointment of the year ?
For me Michu - because of his points delivery at a very cheap price - I know there's been a few quite periods but averaging it out the lad has done well.
Tbh I'm dissapointed with Aguero I really thought he'd kick on from last year but IMO that's not been the case - injuries etc have hampered tho I do feel he could be the man for the run in.Open Controls
