Breaking with my traditional tardiness, the weekly FPL captain poll is up and running in your middle column. Should be an interesting one this given…well..you know Ronaldo’s hip and all.
While we await news on that particular situation, the poll gives us all an opportunity to ponder alternative armband candidates for the gameweek ahead. As always, use this thread to express opinions on the issue. You’ll find it linked under “Featured Discussions” in the middle column from this point on.

Not really I just think one ref should whistle a penalty…
And there goes the 60 mins Al
Ok I need some major input, anything you guys have to say would be very appreciated!
Current:
Schwarzer Cech
Carragher Boswinga Johnson Shawcross Fig
CRon Kuyt Ireland Delap Marney
Anelka Bent Defoe
.3 in the bank
So I was planning on Anelka > Robinho but with Bent not playing I need off that carousel as well. (Also is Robinho even healthy?) I could go cheap with extra money going to upgrade either Delap or Marney (or both) or even a defender, or I could just roll into someone equal with Bent (tho not seeing any standouts there either…)
What do the people of FFS think?
Nice team missing Lamps of course. As possible minor tweaks I would consider Paintsil or Konchesky for Shawcross because of Fulhams defensive record and possibly Ryan Taylor for Figs because of his attacking threat. I’m not a fan of Kuyt because I don’t think he’s a brilliant player and Liverpool are not exactly a free-scoring team. On the other hand I can’t argue with his record so far and Torres is injured of course. I wrote a lot about Geovanni up above. I still think he’s cheap. So Kuyt for Geovanni is one possibility giving you lots of cash for up front. And I agree to sell Bent but he’s had a price drop this week so you could most likely wait until Saturday ( I know they play ManU ). This would allow you to sell Anelka, perhaps for Owen, this week ( if you want to keep Kuyt ) and replace Bent next week before his price drops. Cisse could be a candidate because of great fixtures. Depending what you spend on Bents replacement you could maybe afford Geovanni for Marney the following week. A lot of this depends if you want to keep Anelka. If he stays first choice most people would probably want to keep him.
That’s my thinking anyway.
I have never seen WH playing like that at home…They basically hope for a 0 0
1. GK: Myhill, Turnbull
Defenders: Evra,(Olsson(,Dawson,(Griffin), A.Traore
Midfielders: Lampard,Ronaldo,Geovanni,Ireland,Alonso
Forwards: Robinho, Anelka, (Ameobi).
Please help me . What are my weak areas and how do I strengthen them without compromising my team. I don’t have any money left.

My subs are in brackets
When i click on that link MY TEAM COMES UP- TURD SANDWICH UTD,what are u playing at mate? How do u know my team?
This guy is a complete prat. He asked the same question about 10 times last night. Lots of people gave him very detailed help!!!!!!!!!!. He didn’t bother to say thank you.
We all know your team Pierre, we take it in turns to log in and make random transfers!
lol, only joshing. help!!!!! just doesn’t know what he’s doing, and posted a generic link which will bring up the person who clicked on it’s team, rather than his own.
helppppp !!!!!!!!!!! appears to be quite young, maybe we shouldn’t expect too much from a ~14-year-old? To me, Pierre Luigi Collina’s reply was even funnier.
Shit!! I even told him how to link his team properly in one of my replies…..they teach kids computing in secondary school these days so I think he must be youger than 14…say 11-?
A what’s best question!!!
What’s best?
Choosing 2 from T.Cahill, Bent and Zaki every gameweek or
Playing Adebayor and Zaki with Mullins always a sub?
Opinions and ideas welcome.
I would say it really depends if you plan to captain K2 or not. First option is safer (although Bent need to regain his place in the 11) but K2 can be awesome as a captain (good potential for hatrick as seen in the past). Hope it helps mate
Thanks. Although I have Ronaldo and Lampard too so arguably not gonna captain him. Know what you mean though, it’s a lot of money to spend on someone that you aren’t gonna give the arm band to!
deadly ledley!
whats everybodys thought on song for arsenal as a budget midfielder, hes played 90 minutes in the last 3 games and got an assist and 3 bonus points against wigan.
hail o’hara!
Wenger said earlier in the season he would rotate everyone.
Gomes for rare bonus point(s)?
They were nice saves, and you never know how the dartboard will turn out, but weren’t those the first saves he’s had to make this game?
Well I’ve just done it, taken out Ronny. Got very bored by just having him captain week in week out so thought I’d spice it up a bit! May well (probably will) come back to haunt me but balls to it, makes the captain choice more fun now! And the team is definately a LOT more balanced.
nice one! that’ll spice up your christmas!
and getting woodgate in three weeks ago is about the only decent transfer i’ve done all year! pushed me up to 43 for the week
He’s doing a Ronnie…substituting himself!!
can someone actually tell me what they would do e.g. take out this player and put in this player.
It should be pretty obvious to you that your defence is pants, i.e. improve there!
ah 2nd place here i come… just by one point…
Cole was pretty boring today and nothing really goin for West Ham either, They fluffed the last chance at the end
Spurs lookin decent enough, Zokora was doing well, Lennon and Modric too, good goal from King
Now what the hell am i going to do with my team!!! im so stuck, never been this stuck before for decisions, im prety sure im obsessed with it now
I ACTUALLY DID SAY THANKS. WELL ANYWAY THANKS
Piss off helppppp!!!!!!! many people including me have given you detailed advice on the same post you have posted several times in a few different threads.
Nobody else need reply to this moron helppppp!!!!!!! again.
im getting rid of bentley from A Young. Bentley used to be legendary.
and then he went to Spurs
Was Bentley any good tonight?
Bentley was pretty awful to be fair, lost his touch and confidence
Used to be being the keywords, Yeah the move fucked him up, But he might make a comeback yet, spurs were actually not that bad today
Bentley had a few good touches at the start.. just forgotten how to cross it seems. I think he’ll come good in 6-8 gameweeks, that’s my fantasy prediction.
Ouch. Millionaire’s club for me again for the third week running. Have plummeted from top 2000 to top 10,000 (just). But over this three week period my lead in my mini league has been cut by a sum total of 3 pts – could be worse…
Same here. I think I’ve actually gone three weeks without a single goal, which has to be some kind of personal record. Perhaps Mark can nick the BBC’s funky Downturn logo. We definately seem to be in some kind of points crunch.
I’ve just joined the selling Bent bandwagon (6 weeks owned this season, 0 goals scored). Sitting tight otherwise though as I haven’t got a clue what else to do. Maybe Agger for Woodgate next week, Spurs have a good run after ManU.
modric 3
WOODGATE 2
zokora 1
Modric got some bonus points and zokora too, They were definitly playin well today and worth a look, Bentley was ok, nothing to special, lennon was sharp too…
all their players are moderatly priced, may be worth a look, but i’d worry about picking bent now
No-one mentioned the fact that WHM had four strikers on the field and still couldn’t manage to score…..that really sucks….glad I ditched Cole for Benjani now.
Heres one for you Marky boy !!
Have Zaki Berby and Ronaldo on my bench for the week after next, who do you think the best buy will be for then? I know its looking beyond this week, but I havnt used any double transfers in any one week and I have over 900 points so im not doing to bad.
Wouldnt be cost effective to sell Zaki or Ronny.
just sell berba for roque santa for the one week, then buy berba straight backin
I thought Bent looked better than Pavlyuchenko when he came on. I’m thinking Harry let Pavy have a runout to save Bent for next week against the mancs. Fancying Spurs next GW, they looked impressive with Modric in the hole, and the mancs are patchy away from OT.
Any Idea if Ronaldo will turn out against AaB midweek????
Need to know for fantasy UCL
Not a chance. I’ve rung the changes in my poor excuse for a team. I’ve brought in Deco as captain, Cech in goal for Valdes, Evra in for Rio and Krkic for Eto’o.
Any suggestions for what to do, like is said im completly stumped
Cech (Schwarzer)
Boswinga – Laursen – Pantsil (Figueroa, Griffin)
Ronaldo – Ireland – Lampard – Arteta – Delap
Robhino – Zaki (Miller)
First thing is to get rid of miller for, Zamora?
and robhino is due back in 3 days, i persume he’ll be good for Next weekends fixtures…. But the ronaldo thing, im waiting to hear about his injury, but ill probably keep him and give lampard 1 more week, if not lampard dis being swapped for deco and arteta for Young, and if ive the money Figueroa for Johnson… seems like a good team that way, if i do… good all rounders… it’ll cost a few points to get ron back if i get rid of him, and reconfigure so i might just hang on and make those other changes maybe next week, hopefully ronaldo is not injured… either way, need some help, also how’s delap fixed, change or keep? kinda stuck
my capn is cranky ronaldo at the mo but im considering to sell…i know when i do he get a hat trick tho…whats the story wit his hip? is he full of shit or injured? other possibilties are boswingwa or laursen
my tezam (which i think is great on paper is not getting any fucking points:
Reina (solid)
Laursen (solid, should be ok bolton)
Bosingwa (solid, possible captaincy)
Carragher (solid, hull could well score tho)
Ronaldo (i dunno what to make of this chap these days!)
Geovanni (solid, he should have scored his peno, not king)
Ireland (on/off form but il keep him cos he was cheap)
Song (dirt cheap at present, got 3 pt bonus vs wigan, maybe some more clean sheets )
Defoe (solid, waiting for more goals)
Bent (unsure, harry doesnt always start him in league games)
Agbonlahor (unsure, until carew is back)
Green
Paintsill
Marney
why am i getting 30’s and 40’s? i need answers please!
sorry for cursing it wont happen again…:)
I think everyone is in the same boat with that team…they are all top top but not having a good couple of weeks. I just have one sneaking suspicion about Geovanni in the air…as someone said earlier “he has a head shaped like a twenty pence piece”. I only have him cause he’s dirt cheap for the points……so far!!!
Can someone explain why Ronaldo still hasn’t got a price drop?!
117% to price drop and over 2300 NTI…
I mean -23000 NTI
Protected on injury?….I heard that but I do not know what it means or how it works.
Not protected..
Lampard looks good against West Ham, he will have a few days off because of his red card. I am kind of hoping Ronaldo is injured for this week makes it more interesting
Zaki could score a few against Blackburn IF he starts …
What’s this about a Lamps red card?????
It’s for the Champions League tonight.
Kudos to the boss of the site, thought there must be something like this and discovered it!
My team:
Schwarzer
Laursen….Arbeloa….Vidic….Bosingwa
A Young…Giovanni…Lampard(c)…Ireland
Anelka…Zaki
Jaask…Delap…Turner…Fuller
Looks decent but struggling everywhere bar the head to head thing.
I just sold Ronaldo and have 3.3 in the bank. Any ideas??
i fancy my mother
whats wrong with garrido does anyone know?
His achilles
If Gerrard is playing alongside Kuyt, he’s a good option. The problem is, Keane played a decent match against PSV, so he may get a chance this weekend, and then Gerrard drops some value. My question is: Is Keane going to play?
van der sar
djourou vidic agger pantsil (pamarot)
ronaldo ireland lampard geovanni
anelka robinho
im in for a bad week i tink !! djourou probably getin dropped…agger is a ?…ronaldo and robinho doubts also!!
im gona keep ron but dont no about captain??il make decision last minute id say!!any suggestions?
bow down to the new world number one …after tnites game that is.. Douw Geldenhuys mite have lasted for a few weeks on top spot but no more.
I put Bosingwa as my captain so will see if it pays off for me today.
Round of applause for all the goons that chose Bosingwa
