Well earlyish anyway. Apologies for the recent radio silence – I’m tied up at a trade show in Germany and typing this from my hotel. I’ll spare you the details though and inform you that I’ve updated the team news section tonight with the latest rumblings and I’ve also done a first pass over the injuries and bans table to coincide.
Notable team news snippets include another knock for Bosingwa. Song back from Olympics for Arsenal. Sidwell struggling for Villa. Babel a possible return for Liverpool. Johnson still a doubt for Fulham. Scharner should return for Wigan.
There you go. Pop over here for all the team news as it stands. I’m away from keyboard all day tomorrow but will endeavour to update this with the very latest in the early evening.

One of the leagues I am in is ranked #9. Impressive given that there are over 250 people in it
does anyone know how leagues are ranked?
it seems the larger leagues have the highest ranking
It only takes the top 5 in each league mate so doesnt matter the size of league!
Lamps for Captain for me this week. Although seriously considering Young. It’ll probably an 11:30 rush decision tomorrow which will see me picking Adebayor.
Probably a lot better options for captain than Adebayor. Generally prefer midfielders for captain (assists, bonus points and 1 extra for the odd goal) so Lamps definitely of those 2.
I’m torn between transferring in Arteta (for Petrov-MCY) or Alonso (for Bullard)!?!?!
I’m ripping my hair out over this one..all advice appreciated!
is alonso a definite starter? he’s not on the best terms with rafa since the rafinator is so intent on selling him.Would go for him if he went to arsenal tho.
I swapped arteta at the last min last week for our Saviour’s pick of Osman in the scout picks lol
Sticking with Osman though… Everton have a couple of handy matches coming up.
Does anyone rate Lawrence? he let me down last week but if he is fit i reckon he is a decent cheap midfielder
Lawrence by all reports is very good. The team around him… notsomuch.
Off topic, but someone explain to me who the hell is going to pay £7m for Di Santo of Chelsea?
I find some of the FPL’s pricing for fringe players at the big clubs absurd
Just looking at this Gameweeks transfers out, and 3 people have already picked Cisse and got rid of him on the same day. Not the best tactics.
i guarantee one of them is Wayne!
my defense:
nevile hyypia young L meite obrianA
already spent my weekly free transfer, but hyypia got injured after that.
is it worth it to spend 4 points changing hyypia for, say, everton’s valente? maybe baines?
everton’s fixtures look really nice in the near future..
p or g neville?
if its g neville then he might not play and manu’s fixtures are really tough + they dont play next week
if its p neville then probably best not to overexpose your defence to everton given that they havent looked great so far or in pre season
hyppia – likely to be rotated, prob best to get rid of him
young – at stoke you should play him i think
meite – at home to eveton, again you could play him prob wont score much pts though
o’brien – away to newcastle, half chance of some points
so it looks like you will have to play neville, young, o’brien
if you think that the player you will bring in will beat that combo by > 4pts then you should do it.
as clean sheets = 4pts i dont think you should transfer as your extra gain only pays for the transfer, and theres a good chance you will score more by doing nothing
its phil nevile. thanks for your opinion, i’ll probably stick to it and get rid of hyypia next week.
quick vote for captain please : A Young or Lampard ?
cheers
both, with bells on
Most sites (Sky, 365, Telegraph) seem to think Bosingwa will be fit.
Ashley Youing clearly on the fact that Wigan should give Chelsea a real game at home.
RVP now 9.4? Nice. I think i may get him in if he plays 75 minutes or so this weekend. A straight swap with Adebayor might be a good idea. I’ve got Alves already, and i’m keeping Elmander for WK3.
Not that fussed about Bosingwa, although it would be nice if he played and then stayed at 6.1 because i bought him at 6.0. I’m probably going to keep him for most of the season anyway (providing he isn’t rested often or injured every 2 weeks!).
Taking a chance on Pedersen as captain this week. Risssssky.
Just wondered what people think about Wes Brown – will he play the majority of games? Or will there be a lot of rotation? Maybe, with Neville in the picture, it’s a good thing for Brown, in that Neville might come on with 15-20 minutes to go, which means that Brown is more likely to pick up clean sheets as he leaves the field before the match is over? I’m hoping Brown drops to 5.9 as well. I’m tempted to get 2 or 3 ‘big 4′ defenders on the cheap for the long term – Bosingwa, Dossena, (W.Brown).
i notice Tevez has gone down to 9.9 too. Worth a punt if Man U don’t sign anyone before the deadline. Hopefully he’ll stay at that price for a few weeks.
United missing next week with their SuperCup game so that’s probably part of the reason. If they dont bring anyone in then defo worth a shout
daz i think u kno nuffink bout football
