Having previously assessed the form of forwards and midfielders across the last four Gameweeks, our third Key Performance Indicator (KPI) article of the international break casts an eye over the defenders.

For the unfamiliar, these Key Performers Indicator (KPI) tables use a series of key stats to allow our members to track a trend in player performance as a guide to their form. By tracking the frequency of certain key statistics, such as minutes per chance, and comparing them over two separate periods of time, we can ascertain patterns of improvement or decline in these areas. For those unfamiliar, we’ve rolled out a preview movie which shows just how to get the best out of the KPI tables.

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

    Benches, assemble.

    Looking forward to a weekend where "squads" are put to the test

    1. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      My bench will probably end up being Baines, Moore and Obertan. 0 minutes, 0 points.

      Got XI starters who look pretty nailed on though.

    Stewart Downing, Diafra Sakho, Enner Valenica, and Winston Reid have all taken knocks during the international break, and look increasingly unlikely to play on Saturday.

        ironviews just posted this, I thought he was fine too but it's latest post. Hopefully just a mix up

          Mmm. Thanks for the update Bemba.

      He is fine. He was on the bench for England

    Chambers v Duff to start this week?

    1. ralfb
      • 11 Years

      Im starting both, together with yun

  4. Sess!
    • 15 Years

    Worst international break in history?

  5. Van Dal

    Are we human or we dancers?

    3. Sess!

      That's obviously a spoof but still funny.

  7. Salah’s Sonnet

    Oh great, add Sakho to my list of injured players as well as baines and fab 🙂

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years

      That's getting off lightly compared to most.

    The right ordered bench will be a huge factor this Gameweek...
    What is yours currently?
    Chambers, Marney, Yun here

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Boyd Moore Naylor

      *vomits

    2. Tex
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Boyd, Wisdom, N Taylor.

    3. Zasa
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Marney, Duff, Wisdom for AdM, Baines, & Sahko

  9. President John F. Keninnsie
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Really tempted to do Baines > Azpi if he's definitely out this week....

    1. Goodnight Kiwi
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      And get Baines back the following week? I'd have faith in your bench Innsie - feel you have to keep Baines

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        If I do it I'd probably try last a few weeks without Baines...

        1. Goodnight Kiwi
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Feel you're getting a little lightheaded from being so high up here Innsie...

          1. President John F. Keninnsie
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            😆 Thanks for bringing me back to reality GK. Let's hope Naylor can get a cheeky assist 😉

            1. Goodnight Kiwi
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              That's the spirit!

    2. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      A bit silly, you'll be wanting him back soon enough.

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah I guess you're right. Naylor to the rescue!

        1. Parm
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Do you not have a Clyne/Bertrand you can upgrade to Azpilicueta?

          1. President John F. Keninnsie
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah Clyne and Forster > Green/Guzan and Azpi is the plan for the next couple of weeks. I'll just hold Baines.

    3. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Thinking of doing the same myself. The fixtures are hardly kind so now is as good a time as any.

  10. Mystic Carneiro
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Frustration on the horizon for Charlie Austin. Could be angling for a move in the January transfer window and be refused, or face a setback due to injury or serious foul play.

  11. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    The last international break until March and by far the worst one yet.

  12. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Last week wildcard. This week 5 are injured. 🙁

    1. Goodnight Kiwi
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch

    2. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Exaggeration much?

      1. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Nope

    3. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      You could have had 7 injuries . Look on the bright side

      1. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I know how Van Gaal feels now. A new injury every other day.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years

      thanks

      1. Cars and Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        No problem. This international break is doing my head in.

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Surely fine I say

    3. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sounds positive. Cheers.

    1. Goodnight Kiwi

      What happened to Marney?

      1. Captain Shirokov
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        hes shit

        1. Goodnight Kiwi
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Stoke away with so many potentially out, could be a great week for him to come off the bench...

        2. Walsh

          😀

          1. Goodnight Kiwi
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            No man is more consistent for a 2 point haul Walshy!

            1. Zasa
              • 11 Years

  15. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years

    Played my WC last week and to get Sakho, Downing, Adm IN and Terry out(Baines) 😆 .. Gotta just laugh sometimes

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Similar story here. Might just save and hope for the best.

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      It's just downright unlucky. Fingers crossed at least the first three pull through.

  16. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Oh, my favorite confusing negative percentage colorful article 😛

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Why are the negatives green? Is green good? Negative good?

      1. Cars and Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Its minutes per whatever. So a reduction is good.

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          I am good with numbers but I think something has to be done regarding format of this type of KPI articles. So confusing, really don't quite understand it

          1. MJ6987
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Same here and this

  17. shortymak
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    doing tadic welbeck pelle out
    siggy costa in 5.2 in bank what striker will iget

    1. Tex
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure there's many at that price that would play much. Steven Fletcher is 0.1 too expensive. Kane is maybe best bet, and I wouldn't say he's a certain starter.

  18. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    FFS Sakho. Now I have no idea what to do.

  19. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Is Silva back this GW?

    1. Tex
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Don't think so, haven't heard anything about him yet. Maybe Pellegrini sheds some light tomorrow or Friday.

  20. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years

      Fa cup tho.... Arguably worse!!

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Means club football. It is good. Means GW in Wednesday and knowing the lineups. Me like it

      2. Fantasy Gold
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        FFS....forgot about the FA Cup! 🙁

  21. Jeremiah
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Evening lads 🙂 Any ideas for this bunch?

    Krul - Mannone
    Coleman - Clyne - Wisdom - Naylor - Moore
    ADM - Fab - Siggy - Downing - Marney
    Costa - Welbz - Aguero

    Thinking Fab & Welbz > Sanchez & Austin for free?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Surely now's not the time to get rid of Chelsea players.

      1. Jeremiah
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        ADM > Sanchez instead of Fab?

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Aye that'd be my preferred move.

        2. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Unless Fab is confirmed out of course.

  22. DrunkPhilosophy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Fabregas & Pelle to Chadli & Costa (-4)
    How does that look?

    1. diabydoesgallas
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Would prefer siggy or downing if you don't have them. But good moves.

      1. DrunkPhilosophy
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I have Siggy and Sakho, I think Downing and Sakho might be too much WH

    2. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Same moves that I made so I vote excellent 🙂

    3. shortymak
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      i need to buy striker under 5.2
      was tinking naismith or ayoze or zamora oh decisions decisions

  23. Boss Hogg
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Should be a good week this.
    All these injuries will call out the casuals and template players.

    Don't know why everyone is complaining about the injuries. This is where the game gets interesting.
    A decent week this week and you'll shoot up the rankings.

    1. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I agree. These are the weeks that separate the men from the boys and in some cases the haves (WC) from the have nots 🙂

  24. Goodnight Kiwi
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Think we may need an FPL therapy session

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years

      Can't wait for Friday night's Scout Picks.

      Only a few of their picks will be fit 🙂

    11 years, 1 month ago

    Pressers tomorrow/Friday should clear a few things up, calm down folks, no need to worry about escape routes yet, especially for player like Baines/Di María who are probably only going to miss this weekend and you'll undoubtedly want back after selling.

    1. Cars and Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      LOUD NOISES

    2. Epic Fail

      I'm calm.

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Good boy.

    3. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      You think Di Maria will miss out? I was fairly confident about him 🙁

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I reckon he'll play, just using him as an example to emphasise my point.

        1. MJ6987
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Ah right

    4. DrunkPhilosophy
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. I have Baines, ADM, Fabregas, and Sakho as my injured players.
      Already considering transferring Fab out to get Costa, and hoping at least two of the other three will end up playing this week.

  26. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Will they play yes / no?

    A. Baines
    B. Downing

    Its probably going to be one of those weeks were the best and safest differential is not take a hit . Scores will probably be very low . Would yous have Cork or Chambers first sub ?

      Whenever I think "a lot of people will have taken hits this week" I look at FPL Discovery and the average points hits are like 0.9

    Berahino, Duff and Wisdom should be good enough bench to not take a hit this week I guess.. only DiMaria and Baines yellowed so far
