The Big Numbers – Gameweek 15

An upturn in form by Palace’s former Villa man and a certain enigmatic Bulgarian over at Craven Cottage come under the spotlight this evening. Tottenham’s improvement in front of goal and United’s faltering home form are also picked apart in our latest review of the statistics from the weekend and beyond:

  Just checked out your team, you haven't got a playing second goalie so I would lean towards Migs - Howard but your defence is in tatters with Vlaar, Clyne and Chico... tough call. defender is probably the priority for this week.

Need to replace Nasri who is a joke.

Already own Aguero and Ramsey.

  I see Silva rotating more than Ozil. Ozil should outscore him after these next 2 weeks, Imo.

  Beware of Silva, I had him GW1 -> gets injured. Returns from injury I get him and he is injured again. I would wait for him to get back to fitness for a few weeks before moving to Silva.

Fer or Redmond- who's the better bet, head to head, over the next 3-5 weeks?
Fer looks like the better goal scorer , but I've heard tell that Redmond's underlying stats are better.

      Fer won't do both consistently. I owned Redmond earlier in the season before he was dropped.
      
      Cashed in with a goal and bonus.
