A number of midfielders are placed under the spotlight, with Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Liverpool all serving up some strong statistics. The performance of United’s frontmen at Villa and Tottenham’s inability to find the net under the now-departed Andre Boas-Villa also come under analysis as we delve into the data.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    2 FTs, 1.7m ITB

    Migs 4.0

    Ivanovic Jagielka Garrido Baker Collins

    Barkley Januzaj Shelvey Ozil Ramsey

    King Suarez Aguero Lukaku

    I'm going to do Aguero > Rooney, should I save the other FT?

        I'd need to flog Terry to Evans and do Brady to Walcott for -8 to get him in, but given Brady's current situation, allied with Chelsea's defensive form, it may be worth it

    -8 is so tempting to do Kun, Brady + Ozil > Negredo, Silva + Walcott.

    Hazard / Cabaye / RavMo / Januzaj / Brady
    Aguero / Suarez / Rooney

    Shit midfield, but I moved to top of my ML by 13 points because nobody had the balls to (C) Suarez.

    Did Aguero + Brady --> Negredo + Walcott for 2FT

    Did I dun goofed? Everyone is on that Ozil/Ramsey wagon so I figured not to bring them in. ML > rank because I want the new Superfly 4's at the end of the season.

    Is it worth paying the extra for Yaya or Silva over Nasri?

      I'm going for Yaya - set pieces do it for me. Free kicks / penalties.

      The max is only ever 0.1
      It will be reset tomorrow back to 0% and it's likely he will drop the FF maximum of 0.3m this weak.
