There were some unfamiliar names on top of the ICT Index this week, snuggled alongside the return to form of Carlos Tevez and Leighton Baines, while Juan Mata and Robin Van Persie again provided shifts to acquire another wave of Fantasy attention. The Members Area is packed with the latest data from the weekend’s games and our Big Numbers article has picked through the goodies to find the stats that caught our eye…

Double up on stoke def even after Wilson is out.
Have Begovic and thinking about bringing in Shawcross for Hangeland.Open ControlsWait one week. 🙂
Open ControlsBecause Stoke will play away game this week. Wait till they play home game and double it. I think it worths 😉
Open Controls
You know what REALLY grinds my gears? ...(Yes I'm aware it should be "who"...)
Rickie Lambert... Rickie BLOODY Lambert...
And I have to stick with him since I have so many other issues to deal with right now... FPL problems that is, I won't burden you with my real life problems... 😉Open ControlsTwo words:
LUKAKUOpen ControlsKeep the faith...gets his goals in big hauls...soon to fire up soon.

Guys... Really need help with my back line..
As it stands
Ivan, Hughes, jenkinson, demel, naughton
Don't really know I've got naughton there.. Seeing tho Ivan will be suspended, jenko is lost to the world, demel is injured and naughton's up sh!t creek, I have one, only one defender who'll play next week..
And to make matters worse, I have already done my FT from Santi to mata in my drunken state to beat price rise.. D'oh..
What shall I do now?Open ControlsIvan will play next week. serve the red card at league cup. 🙂 do jenkinson to shawX may be?
Open ControlsIt was a straight red. He's out for 3.
Open Controls
Either get 2 x 0 or take a hit & hope the new defender gets at least 2 & is someone you can play weekly. Losing 2 points for a full time replacement will correct itself in future.
Open ControlsThanks boys.. Made my day that Ivan's only out for one.. Now jenko to ?
Open Controls
Foster/bego
Wilson*/Baines/Demel*/Cuellar/Simpson
Michu/Kaca(!)/Santi/Nolan/Bale
Rvp/Ba*/Lambchops + 2.4m
LOLOpen ControlsBa might be fine. Wilson has to go.
Open ControlsWait a week with Wilson? Might be able to play Baines/Cuellar/Simpson?
Michu to Mata + Nolan to Morrison for -4 to try and recover hit?
Or just Kaca to Morrison for free?Open ControlsLost Foster for 4M and free up some funds. Its what i did.
Open ControlsWhat price did you buy Michu? Could have scored 2 vs. City away. Season keeper, imo.
Open ControlsI paid 6.8m way back in week 3.
Problem is it's impossible to juggle the milfs to get 3 of Bale/Santi/Mata/Haz in at all times(and the RIGHT times!) AND have Rvp/michu. Silva not even in the mix yet. Something needs to give.
Chopping and changing ain't working for me. The guy I get stops scoring and the guy I sell goes on a run.Open Controls
Morrison was playing Defensive Midfielder today...I did a personal scout report on it...Lack of Yacob means Morrison plays alongside Mulumbu...do you want a DM in your team right now? You've been warned...
Open Controls
LOL LOOK A KU! LOOK ACHU! IF IT ISN'T RUDI 'CAN'T FAIL' BOTHA...pffft...and they said you had history...
Open ControlsYou are lucky I have a throat infection and no voice this morning.
Open ControlsNot enough gametime btw.
Open ControlsBloody WBA and their rotating one man top of the pops forward line. It's not fair that one of Long/Lukaku can't be an option. But tbh Long has nothing on Lukaku imo...he looks really very good and if he somehow holds down a place...that's some bargain right there!
Open Controls
Either Sterling in or Lambpoo to Jelly
Open ControlsCan you do kava for fellaini? If you don't want a hit that might work best

Open Controls
I see the times have changed in the UK. Back in the dead of the dead zone.
Open ControlsNot necessarily a bad thing.
Open Controls
thinking about transfering Cazorla (@MUFC) for Taarabt (Reading) for next GW... am I crazy?
Open ControlsIf you are going QPR, go Hoilett.
Open Controlsif you look at their track record, you are correct. Last year, Hoilett had 7 goals and 6 assists to Taarabt's 2 goals and 4 assists. But Taarabt got a late start to the season due to injury and already has 2 goals in the last four matches. I think he might break this year.
Open ControlsI fancy him, really do.
Open Controls
Rooney. Saw that he was playing in midfield yesterday and never looked like getting any points. Keep or sell ? He was the deepest of the midfielders at one point.
Open Controlshe almost had the assist to RVP... but it turned into a David Luiz own goal. Rooney will come good. be patient.
Open ControlsHowever if you can afford, better have RVP.
Open Controls
Got him in for a hit for Aguero. So guess I am impatient. Thanks.

anyone see the 3rd readin goal? did gorkks really get the assist? legend if he did
Open ControlsI believe you will be in luck
Open ControlsI knew I'd regret benching Gorkss, this is just typical 😀
Open Controls
I love your front 8... I have 6 of them, but badly want Mata & Tevez...
I do not, however, like the defence it leaves you with... I would struggle to come to terms with losing Baines and most likely Rafael...Open ControlsIt really comes to being perfect. Michu should be in there though, surely.
Open ControlsI have Michu, but I'd rather have Mata...
And probably Pienaar over Michu since he rotates better with Sterling...Open ControlsMichu is close to being the most value player in the league.
Open Controls
No Baines. No michu.
As I said up top. Something has to give to get bale/santi/Mata and rvp.Open ControlsI can actually see myself letting go of Baines at some stage... their good fixtures will run out soon...
GW14 onwards ins't the easiest run...Open Controls
Wilson to Cameron this week, Hangeland to Wilkinson next week and Clyne to Simpson the week after.. All set.. if Ba out for just one week i wont have to touch my attack
Open Controls
thanks all 🙂

I haven't posted a RMT for about two months so if you would be so kind can you tear this apart and provide any advice you deem necessary.
Bego / Vorm
Baines / Ivan / Cuellar / Handeland / Clyne
Hazard / Cazorla / Sterling / Michu / Guthrie
RVP / Ba / Lambert
I am currently looking at fixing the following problems
Vorm, will downgrade to Tremmel and play Bego until WC
Ivan - not a problem as wont miss a game but need the funds. Downgrade to Simpson probably
Guthrie - looking at McAnuff but don't want to take a hit to get rid
Ba - praying he is ok.
Lambert - on death row but can't ignore those fixtures every time I think about getting ridOpen ControlsYour thinking is correct mate. Lost Vorm first. Guthrie replacements - McAnuff and probably Hoilett. Rest is in place. Hazard -> Mata always an option when you need funds.
Open Controlsta LR
Open Controls
I'm thinking Kaca to Macanuff
Qpr/NOR/EVE/wigan/villa look ok. Also have south/SWANS/WEST between now and gw 20.Open Controlsagree Ladyboy... Thanks two green arrows in a row I see.. Rukawa better watch out you will overtake him soon enough
Open Controls
How much money in the bank?
Ba if injured should be priority no 1 > Jelly as you have no Everton coverOpen Controls
My current team is
Foster - Begovic
Ivanovic - Rafael - Gibbs - Demel - Davies
Bale - Mata - Ben Arfa - Michu - Sterling
Aguero - Suarez - Holt
I'm keen on shipping out these three players (not all at once)
- Aguero
- Holt
- Ben Arfa
Aguero isnt playing full games on a regular basis as he is being utilised by mancini alot in the champions league, so I'm keen on the possibility of bring in rooney/rvp.
I'd like to upgrade holt to berbatov
Ben Arfa has been playing well but lacking the fantasy returns, thinking of the possibility of bringing in fellaini.Open ControlsWait to hear more on Berba before bringing him in
Fellaini looked good yesterday and if Mirallas is out (not sure) he will be back in the hole
I would keep HBA for fixtures alone
You have chose Kun so stickOpen Controls
Captaining Van Persie against his former team
Good idea?Open ControlsPossibly. Him or Bale for me.
Open ControlsI don't have Bale.
Crouch was my other option..Open ControlsBale at home? no thanks

Who will get more points in 6-8 gameweeks.
Crouch or Shawcross.Open Controlsa)Ben arfa to Bale this GW.
a) Santi to Bale this GW .
Any thoughts on thisOpen ControlsGrowing tired of cazorla/arsenal not performing and aguero's willl he won't he play palarva, thinking of doing cazorla and aguero > jelavic and value for a 4 point hit, any thoughts lads?
Open ControlsI have cazorla and don't have Bale or Mata... and am very worried.. It's up to you really.. the players you are bringing in are on better form
Open Controls
who is value?
Open ControlsHave just had a look at Carzolas record in spain , and while steady he wasnt exactly explosive , one season he only had five assists.
To my mind hes still unproven in the premier league , being at a new lub hes obviously been enthusiastic , etc etc , but how long will it be before he starts feeling cold wet and miserable?
When you consider he the same price as Bale who is a proven fantasy points scorer then he starts to look poor value.
Only reason he is so popular is because there appear to be no other decent coverage for arsenal , no room for a forward , its a midfielder we need. Walcott and Gervinho much more explosive with potential big hauls , but rotation risks.
Arteta could be the one to equal carzolas returnsat a cheaper price , he was a good fantasy asset at everton and now that fabregas and nasro have gone he could come into his own.
Either way im starting to become unimpressed with CarzolaOpen ControlsI'm seeing sense in most of this...but then you lost me at Arteta being the one...Arteta is now a defensive mid....and will remain a defensive mid forever more...
Open Controls
When is the update gonna be done? Really cant wait for the baps to finally come. Bale(c) ftw!
Open ControlsThey really are bastards at FPL...I hope they're reading this.
Open Controls
You haven't checked in the last few minutes then?
Open ControlsNa, i dont think so..

Will Rooney be differential to RVP or RVP will outscore him every week.
Need your thoughts on the sameOpen Controlsfind the extra cash
Open Controlsto bring in RVP. 😉
Open Controls
I dont think RVP will outscore him every week. After next week, United go on a long run of fixtures without facing a very 'strong' team. During this period, SAF will use a 4-4-2 where both will play up top and either will get the occasional rest. Rooney is as good a fantasy prospect as he was last season.
Open ControlsWRONG
Open Controls3 starts in league so far together is it? Rooney outscored RVP twice.
Open Controls'Rooney is as good a fantasy prospect as he was last season'
This is wrong. He cannot be. Rooney has been usurped by RVP...you can't be the same if RVP joins your team to hog all the goals...it's just not the same.Open ControlsRooney is still a goal scorer. Will be involved in majority of what United do.
Open ControlsAnd either ways, as a united supporter, i could care less which one gets the goal. More the merrier.
Open ControlsIt's not about your own bias...it's quite simple...Rooney is not the same prospect this year...12m and he's not even the main man up front...not to mention he's playing a midfielder's role half the time...it's shocking value on paper....and Welbeck and Chicharito are even there to play the striker role while Rooney plays attacking/defending midfielder. He's not worth it right now full stop.
Open ControlsAgree to disagree 🙂
Open Controls
Good point lat.
a) Santi, Mata, Bale, Mcnuff, Pienar
Ba, Roon, Crouch
+ 0 in the bank
b) Bale, Pienar, Mata, Nolan, Mcnuff
RVP, Ba/ Jelavic, Crouch
Jelavic considered for GW 11 and 12 to face QPR and Norwich and in case Ba is out due to injury.
Any thoughts on the sameOpen Controls
RVP will score more. Rooney will assist more and will score from some fks and pens. Fiannly RVP will outscore Rooney at the end of the season. Rooney is not the main goal scorer anymore and he will play deep in some away games or against pressing teams.

Ameobi(5.3M) anyone is Ba is out for a couple ?

Open ControlsGET THE **** OUT!
Open ControlsNot a fan of the Mackem Slayer eh? 😛

Nah it's just a ridiculous comment...and needed a ridiculous response!Open Controlsclose game Billy.. its mine shirley unless some surprises on BAP's
what do you reckon?Open ControlsYeah, unless there are some crazy baps it's yours. Congrats 🙁
Demi's losing, Tangtastic is losing.....i could've been top 👿Open Controls

Open Controls
better with Crouch?
Open ControlsI'll probably go for Crouch.
Open ControlsNewc very nice fixtures gw 11-15?
Open Controls
Best Ba and Berba replacements? If out.....
Ba - Cisse Jelly
Berba - Fletcher Long Zamora Crouch
Best combo? Others options available to chooseOpen ControlsIf Berba is injured for long, Petric is a great shout.
Suarez a good shout as well.Open ControlsAmeobi for Ba? 5.3m.
gw 11-15: WEST/SWANS/south/stoke/WIGANOpen ControlsHAVE YOU SEEN AMEOBI PLAY?!!??!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Open ControlsOk.
Lukaka it is.Open ControlsYou say that perhaps sarcastically...but Lukaku would be a shoo-in for most teams if Long wasn't there to mess things up.
But Ameobi...dear lord! 😀Open Controls
Suspect they'd play 433 / 4411 rather than Ameobi for 90 minutes
Open Controls
Suarez and Crouch?
Open Controls
I've got 2 FT, and need to get rid of Aguero to fund another move.
Tevez or Suarez?Open ControlsCurrently pienaar and fellani are at the same price. Which one is better?
