Chelsea’s rout of the Villa back four generated some impressive statistics for Rafa Benitez’s men, whilst over the way in West London, Martin Jol’s Fulham are stacking up numbers on the other end of the spectrum. We take a closer look at the team statistics involved, along with a focus on the form of David Silva, Steven Pienaar and Demba Ba as we plunder the members area for the key statistics from Gameweek 18.
Plan currently is to take a 4 point hit to do Fletcher & Sterling> Berbatov & Sidwell, and then just the decision of having to play either Clyne or Cuellar.
Good move?Open Controls
you know... fletcher form >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> berba form
transfer in berba after he scored 1 goal ok??????????Open Controls
Such is Berbalove.
Open ControlsI see Berbatov scoring more in the next 3 than Fletcher. Want to get Berbatov in before just before the masses do!
Open Controlsif you can see that, then do it at your own risk
many want to get off of berbatrain though if not because of nice fixtureOpen Controlsit would only be for a few weeks before Jan WC. Despite the odd recent goal, Fletcher has not been great, and Sunderland are still looking very poor and not have great fixtures ahead
Open Controlsyeah, but still i want to see berba's goals first
rather late than too early imo
i went for benteke train 😉
you can see my team if you want, not as good as yours though 😛Open Controlsyeh, its all about getting them on form at the right time. Taking a punt at two on Christmas usual not to harmful, as this is when the casual players forget to sort their team out at all.
Team not too bad, Id just sort your bench out.Open Controls
fletcher -> berba is great. as is getting rid of sterling, but im not sure about sidwell. maybe pienaar?
Open Controlsnot sure I can face getting back pienaar after getting rid just before this purple patch.
Sidwell would be 5th midfielder, need someone slightly cheaper than Sterling, and he's a nice consistent bench (fpl) player that when needed looks reliable this season to get some points.Open Controlsyeah pienaar is also too expensive to bench consistently as a 5th mid. in that case i understand sidwell.

Berbatov is a waste of time ! Without Ruiz he has no game
Benteke is a much better shout - I captained Torres and can't believe he only scored 1 !

Good morning guys! So what are people doing with Cazorla? I'm thinking about keeping him, even though I'll just be able to field 11. Thoughts on this bunch? 1FT 3.5M in bank. Was thinking save transfer, then do Kanu/Sterling -> Nolan next week.

1 FT, £0.1m in the bank.
Looking at taking a hit.
Possible pair out would be Aguero & Morrison/Sess.
Best combo for 17.3 or 18.5 respectively?
Thanks in advance. 🙂Open Controls
Ridgewell to Cameron, perhaps?
Open ControlsThink I have bigger issues. Attacking 8 not doing the job.
Open Controls
Yes, Aguero OUT for Torres or Berbatov.
Then I would try and get Peanut in, So Sess OUT, Peanut IN ?Open ControlsNo Bale?

Ramp up you mf with a bale or a silva for Morrison.

Another proxy red arrow. What to do? Willing to take a 4-pointer to ditch some West Ham players or sterling, or Aguero.

Open ControlsAnyone considering le fondre... Till the jan WC of course
Open ControlsHe isnt nailed on, he plays for Reading and he isnt a great goalscorer.
So no.Open Controls
I've got another horrible benching decision
Snodgrass, Puncheon or Ba
Snoddy at home and in form and my memory of this weeks benching is vivid
Puncheon up against a very leaky defence,
Is Ba benchable?Open ControlsIts close but I would bench Puncheon
Open ControlsSnodgrass v Chelsea for me.
I would never bench Ba.Open ControlsThis. He is a beast.
Open Controls
Nope, I dont think so. Look at Stoke/City.
Snodgrass, followed by Puncheon.Open ControlsPuncheon, imo. Snodgrass is a revelation, his stats are insane!

Evs, following on from your post about defenders... I don't think it's even about money, it's about recognising that you do need to pay attention to your defence, rather than just worrying about having this week's "must have" attacker. You can build a decent defence without breaking the bank, but you've just got to keep an eye on it and sometimes make a boring transfer when you'd rather make an exciting one.
Open ControlsThis my first year but that sounds like good advice.
As my season has gone on my defence has got worse and worse, I hope to fix this post the next WC.Open ControlsAgree with everything you said there Johnny. Also, with a template coming in place, a defence is what will fetch those extra points.
Open ControlsJust seen your other post at the top of the last page...maybe we don't agree on this point!!
Open ControlsYep, I kind of agree.
Before the season started when there was all the ' who rotates the best at the back' and million of spreadsheets on the go, I just thought, right.... Whose decent at back.
I went for 2 main guns (cole & zab), plus DDG in goal (ok that didn't go too well) with no other keeper and then the cheapest other 3 I could find to fill the final spot. Plan was to play cole and zab every game regardless of oppo and then see who could fill spot 3.
Kind of doing that now but with Bego, Muthersucker and Enrique.Open Controls
But he is not playing Wigan .....although I admit Southampton are not so good, but they are tighter and will want to put in a performance after that Sunderland game.
