GW25 Projections

Adding a new feature here. Vantheman's gonna (hopefully) send me his picks every week, so I'll be putting them here from here on. Good times.


First XI, followed by subs

Player	Position	Fixture	Projected Score
Federici	GK	SUN (H)	2
Zabaleta	DEF	QPR (A)	2
Davies	DEF	WHU (A)	2
Baines	DEF	AVL (H)	6
Mata	MID	NEW (A)	2 (4)
Gerrard	MID	MCI (A)	5 at least
Walcott	MID	STK (H)	5 at least
Cabaye	MID	NOR (A)	2 (4)
Taarabt	MID	SUN (A)	2 (4)
Suarez	FWD	ARS (A)	2 (4)
RVP	FWD	SOU (H)	6 at least
Boruc	GK	WIG (A)	2
Clyne	DEF	WIG (A)	2
Benteke	DEF	EVE (A)	2 (4)
Onuoha	FWD	NOR (H)	2

Federici v Boruc

Well I have decided to forsake de Gea because I am understandably worried about de Gea's possible rotation with Lindegaard, as Sir Alex likes to do every year. Federici rated to concede less. No brainer.

Defenders

In order for my defenders this week: Baines (0.667), Zabaleta (1.024), Onuoha (1.063), Davies (1.180), Clyne (1.541). Good projections, frankly two seasons ago I would've started all 5 defenders. Will see whether the past is right or not.

Attackers

Benching this week was very tricky. In past seasons I would've started 4 defenders and benched Cabaye really, but I'm going with the trends this season and playing Cabaye over Onuoha. Hope that I'm wrong really, I wanna prove some haters wrong :P

Differentials this week will be updated later if possible.

36 points. Hoping that stats are wrong for once.

New Section: Vantheman's Picks

I've decided to add a new section as extra projections for a "chosen" team to see how it pans out. So happy reading!

Player	Position	Projected Score
Cesar	GK	2
Baines	DEF	6
Scharner	DEF	2
Samba	DEF	2
Silva	MID	2 (4)
Mata	MID	5 at least
Walcott	MID	5 at least
Bale	MID	5 at least
Fletcher	FWD	5 at least
Suarez	FWD	2 (4)
Ba	FWD	5 at least
Demel	DEF	6
Espinoza	MID	2
Cisse	FWD	2 (4)

Sadly I don't have stats on Scharner or Samba or Espinoza's stats, but next week it should be clearer. Loving the flair though.
