Sanchez
The man who is deadly at home gave another double figure 19 point haul to show what an essential player he is. The best underlying stats of any midfielder as well as a consistent retuner plus the ability to score big. Mixed fixtures. No sign of being given rest as yet.
Next 6 fixtures:
Man City (A)
Aston Villa (H)
Spurs (A)
Leicester (H)
Crystal Palace (A)
Everton (H)
Hazard
Despite disappointing a load of FPL managers as captain Hazard is alot more consistent than last season but still retains that ability to score big at home. Has been a certain selection for Chelsea in the PL this season and no sign of rotation as yet. Very good shooting and creating chances underlying stats.
Swansea (A)
Man City (H)
Aston Villa (A)
Everton (H)
Burnley (H)
Leicester (A)
Di Maria
3 consecutive blanks if you count his 13 minutes before getting injured so this is not about fixtures it’s about his fixtures and his quality. Good returns to date, his double figure point haul ability and reasonable consistency show that it can’t be done and the fixtures definitely give him that potential. The negatives are the current returns and Man Utd’s lack of attacking cohesion. Will be interesting to see whether he plays as a striker as per last week or back in the midfield
QPR (A)
Leicester (H)
West Ham (A)
Burnley (H)
Swansea (A)
Sunderland (H)
Chadli
An assist last weekend to add to his unbelieveable performance against Chelsea despite a pretty ordinary Spurs performance. His attraction is his advanced midfield position and he has shooting stats only bettered by Sanchez. Mixed fixtures
Sunderland (H)
West Brom (A)
Arsenal (H)
Liverpool (A)
West Ham (H)
QPR (A)
Silva
City especially with Aguero back can score against anyone although the next 2 fixtures will certainly test that. Kept his points ticking over with an assists against Everton last weekend. Reasonably good shooting and creating chances stats too.
Arsenal (H)
Chelsea (A)
Hull (H)
Stoke (A)
Newcastle (H)
Liverpool (A)
Tadic
Came off the bench (eventually after forgetting his shirt and shin pads) to score the winner against Man Utd. Finally seeing some form and something which resembles some sort of consistency. Southampton finally get a reasonable run of fixtures. Despite being on the bench he’s likely to continue starting. Has a knock which needs monitoring
Newcastle (A)
Swansea (H)
QPR (A)
West Ham (H)
Liverpool (H)
West Brom (A)
Fabregas
Consistent returner due to his set piece duties and his relationship with Costa. Has very good creating chances stats but not so much on the shooting stats which limits his big score potential. Mixed fixtures
Swansea (A)
Man City (H)
Aston Villa (A)
Everton (H)
Burnley (H)
Leicester (A)
Oscar
Rotation is the enemy of Oscar and he’s not been involved in 2 of the last 5 games. However prior to that he started 11 consecutively. Does have a good level of consistency and overall returns and his 13 point haul on the weekend showed what he can do. It’s just whether you think he is worth the sacrifice of the other Chelsea players who have a better starting record. No underlying stats but that isn’t always a necessary component of success and Oscars skill is his ability to get into the box
Swansea (A)
Man City (H)
Aston Villa (A)
Everton (H)
Burnley (H)
Leicester (A)
Sterling
Despite playing as a striker Sterling’s inability to put the ball into the net reminds us of the problems Danny Welbeck gave us earlier in the season. Great underlying stats it’s just can he score given the opportunities. Will be refreshed after given time off. Mixed fixtures although good initially
Aston Villa (A)
West Ham (H)
Everton (A)
Spurs (H)
Southampton (A)
Man City (H)
Sigurdsson
Has kept a good level of consistency going due to set piece involvement and the assists to Bony. With Bony gone that poses some risk although the start given by Gomis and Siggys performance was promising. No underlying stats but relies on CAM positioning and set pieces. Tough fixtures. Despending on when you bought him a difficult player to sell due to the sell and buy difference you maybe facing. Has been playing through an injury but seems to important to rest.
Chelsea (H)
Southampton (A)
Sunderland (H)
West Brom (A)
Man Utd (H)
Burnley (A)
