Re: Fantasy Football (Barclays Premier League) Kicks off 17/8/13
Interesting gameweek in the H2H league. Unless Noble gets at least 5 points this evening (EDIT: As was so close to happening, with the assist for Carroll's goal, but the yellow card reduced it to 4), it looks like all of the top 3 will lose their matches, leaving Obiwan Kenobinil and Q's Victory just within touching distance.
Seeing as we're very near the end of the season now, thought it would be interesting to take a look at how everyone's played the game. Here are some statistics from the top 9 (chosen as there's a 141 point gap between 9 & 10).
Column 1 = Team value
Column 2 = Point hits
Column 3 = Total transfers
£114.0m - 36 - 38 (Søren FC)
£109.6m - 68 - 46 (I <3 Luis Garcia)
£111.5m - 32 - 37 (Gripen FC)
£107.1m - 32 - 37 (Obiwan Kenobinil)
£107.2m - 16* - 28 (The Aigburth Supreme)
£105.3m - 28 - 31 (Bjørns svinefylking)
£106.5m - 52 - 42 (Q's Victory)
£106.8m - 84 - 50 (Moreinho's mojo)
£104.2m - 20 - 31 (Middx Minutemen)
*All of these four hits, incidentally, were taken in one gameweek.
There's a close correlation between points total and team value, but quite a variance when it comes to point hits. Three of the top four fall into a narrow range of 32-26, but I was surprised to see that Adhamh's team had taken the second most. Looking back I'd say that a few of my hits were unnecessary, with the awful gameweek 23 Özil > Cabaye followed by Cabaye > Johnson (as he got sold to PSG), being the nadir.
