KEY:
1. Rank: My view of their rank given the various stats
2. Cost: Their cost in Sun Dream Team
3. PPG 14/15: The total points divided by the games played for 14/15. The higher the better. The Sun Dream Team supplies games including sub appearances which makes the information a bit distorted.
4. Extra Comps: The additional competetions the team is in apart from the Premier league. UCL is the Champions League and EL is the Europa League. C1 is the Capital One. FA is the FA Cup.
6. The % of 7+ plus awards of their total games. This gives a general indication of Sun Dream Teams view of the player. Again sub appearances will distort this negatively
7. The % of Starman awards.Again this gives a general view of the players starman potential
8. Fixture ease. This is the rank of how easy their fixtures are to the 4th transfer window.
Hazard
Top of all the key stats. Good fixtures and has all the characteristics that make him standout for Sun Dream Team. Also adding consistency to his game. Has pens.
Eriksen
Has good set piece representation and an attacking position. Has shown an ability to score goals. Gametime is only potential issue with a big midfield squad but has the additional fixtures to compensate
Sterling
Has been playing as a striker which has helped but also has been the star of a pretty ordinary team. Sturridge returning will dissapate this. Europa League will give extra fixtures.
Silva
Loved by Sun Dream Team and also starting to score. Good fixtures but only potentially 2 additional games against Barcelona is the drawback.
Cazorla
The form player of the moment with outstanding performances recently. Good extra fixtures including a good UCL draw against Monaco. The number of midfield players could allow some rotation though. Has set pieces and pens.
Di Maria
Has good set piece representation and liked by Sun Dream Team. Whether he will score enough goals and no European competition is the question
Oscar
Hardworking goal scoring midfielder who is a little rotation prone. Effective rather than flashy which is why doesn’t get the rating apprecialtion from Sun Dream Team
Walcott
Ignore the stats to date. This is about good fixtures and a quality player who is focused on the attacking end of the pitch just coming back into the team
Downing
The standout central attacking midfielder in a team that has shown good attacking form. No Europan competitioms though.
Mata
Has some gametime issues but historically has been a favourite of Sun Dream Team
