With Chelsea’s win at the Etihad bringing Gameweek 24 to its conclusion, we delve into the data once again. Stoke’s midfield goal hero, West Ham’s target man, United’s fit-again frontmen and the knock-on effect Liverpool’s downturn in possession has had on a certain Uruguayan all come under our analysis this time around:

      You could consider Caz to Mata. And since you're benching Bony this week, you also just as well transfer him out for say JRod, and play him over Puncheon.

      Or you could do something with your defence. Bruce out for Yoshida/MOlsson to be sure you have a suitable replacement if Kolarov doesn't play.

      Or save your transfer as you'll probably be needing it with the blanks and DGWs coming up.

            I'm more about how you lead and what kind of example you set, not only for your team, but for the fans and the community in general. Pardew has been quite an absurd human being on more than one occasion, and I simply don't care for his antics. Laudrup lost the team, it appeared, and whenever I saw him and the squad he chose get into trouble, he would just sit there with a look on his face that implied he really didn't care.

      That's been the way they have been playing of late.

      If there was ever a team so ever equipped for a relegation battle Fulham is that team
