Gameweek 16 Rankings

Sorry for the delay again this week, some joker at my job has got it in his head that any of those pesky clients are worth more than fantasy football rankings. Has he seen my team? I haven't topped 50 points for five weeks. Five weeks! Hopefully the below will help:

Captain Stats

  1. Tevez - Tevez has strangely been a lot better away from Eastlands (7.43 PPG) than at home (4.86 PPG) but has been very useful against sides conceding more than 1.5 GPG (7.25 PPG).
  2. Malouda - quietly added 9 points in the past two weeks having stunk up the joint for months. He's been very useful at home (7.71 PPG) and against middling teams (5.00 PPG) so a goal or assist/bonus can be expected. Solid. 
  3. Drogba - struggling badly of late and hasn't been great against the middling teams (4.75 PPG). His home form (6.86 PPG) offers some encouragement but nothing to be too excited by. Drogba is a potential play rather than one based on stats at the moment.
  4. Torres - Torres has the best fixture of all teams but he's struggling against mid table teams to date this year (2.17 PPG). He's decent at home 5.86 PPG but like Drogba this pick is based on potential and skill rather than historical fact.
  5. Chamakh - At his best at home and against weaker opposition, Chamakh is a useful play this week. He's notched 5.43 PPG at home and over 5 points against teams who average more than a goal a game conceded and so he could be good for a goal or assist this week as Arsenal look to continue their title push.
  6. Arshavin - AA has quietly added 27 points over the past four weeks, which puts him sixth behind only Van der Vaart, Chamakh, Bale and Elmander. He's averaging just shy of 5 PPG at home and while the stats say he has struggled against mid-level teams 2.75 he has managed over 6 PPG against the best and worst so you can probably chalk this down to statistical anamoly. In short he is a high risk high reward player but who'd bet against a Russian for more success this week.  
Man Utd, Blackpool and their players have of course been omitted due to United's game with Blackpool being cancelled.
