“I love to attack and I love to go up front...It is a little more difficult than when you are playing centre-back. If you play the way that I want to play, I think my influence is better as a left-back. For the team, it is best that I play as a centre-back. I like to bring the ball out. You need to move the game quickly, and that is one of my qualities as well.”
Jan Vertonghen outlines what he feels is his best position for Andre Villas-Boas

Shouldnt you at least wait until after tonight to decide?
August 20 at 9:56 am

United attack 100% necessary for their run.
August 20 at 9:37 am
JoeySamSam says:
Glad I (luckily) made all the right decisions this week! Hazard over Mata, Michu over Taarabt, Ivanovic over Cole, Tevez over Aguero, and Petric over Graham! And I’m enjoying my 1300 rank

Which team looks like it could get a few cleanies in the next 3-5 games ?
August 20 at 9:40 am
perfectred8 says:
Van der Vaart to start for Tottenham vs. West Brom?
August 20 at 9:45 am
Mind over Mata says:
Two questions for you all:
(1) is VDV likely to start the next two home games?
(2) is Rooney likely to go up before next week?
August 20 at 10:18 am
Shatner's Bassoon says:
No idea about VDV (I’ve avoided completely and gone for Bale).
No-one can answer the Rooney question yet because United don’t play until tonight. If he has a screamer he might well rises. If he has a quiet game then it’s unlikely.
August 20 at 9:46 am
JoeAllenkey says:
Does anyone know what the go is with trading before the gameweek ends? I’m new to this and am confused about the transfer system. If I make my changes now when the players haven’t changed value will I get them for that value or will my budget be adjusted after the gameweek ends?
August 20 at 10:15 am
Shatner's Bassoon says:
You can spend up to your budget limit on anyone you can afford, at any time. You only ever pay the ‘live’ price for a player. You can never go into the red. Trading before a gameweek ends is quite common and often necessary to avoid price rises. The only way to ‘make’ money is by owning a player while his price rises. When you sell this player you cash in his original price plus half of his price rise (rounded down if necessary). Does that clear things up?
August 20 at 10:16 am
JoeAllenkey says:
Yeah thanks heaps. I was hoping that was the case.
August 20 at 10:19 am
Shatner's Bassoon says:
No problem. What have you got planned then? I had planned Sinclair > Michu but I deliberated over the Aguero issue and missed the rise
August 20 at 10:32 am
JoeAllenkey says:
I’m a bit worried about sinclair as if he changes club he might get considerably less game time. I think he’ll probably do well but not worth the risk for me. I’ve made my changes already and unfortunately I had to use my wildcard so went for value last night. Bought michu, Hughes and Dyer on my bench hopefully to get some value. What’s ur thoughts on Hughes? Do you think he’ll keep his starting spot for a while because I really think Fulham defense will do good again this season?
August 20 at 10:36 am
JoeAllenkey says:
Have you looked into the hammers much? I’ve got McCartney at the moment but not sure who is the more likely nail on out of him and Demel.
August 20 at 9:46 am
Manani says:
anyone who watched the match still thinks that hazard is overrated?
his is very selfish at times, and lost the balls on many occasions due to bad passes and selfish dribbling
August 20 at 10:24 am
JoeAllenkey says:
I think he had a very solid premier league debut. Myself being a Liverpool supporter wasn’t happy with our game but I watched the chelsea game with a friend and thought hazard stood up. Selfish players can be very successful as ronaldo and more recently balotelli has shown. I think he’s gonna have a big season.
August 20 at 9:50 am
Someone else - Yaya Vam po faci says:
Michy or Dyer are must or not ? I think not, the season is just started…
August 20 at 1:46 pm
Yash:FlopFPLPlayer says:
then go wit what you think!
August 20 at 9:55 am
JoeAllenkey says:
Michu looks like a must. Dyer might be less consistent but at the price can even squeeze onto your bench
August 20 at 10:07 am
JoeAllenkey says:
Anyone able to tell me about the transfers? ^^^^^^^^^
August 20 at 1:35 pm
wh36tom says:
Is anyone doing the torres > rooney transfer before the game?? Price rise etc? could get inj etc?!
August 20 at 1:43 pm
Minran says:
why would u get torres, and not let him play the two games
August 20 at 1:39 pm
Minran says:
http://fantasy.premierleague.c.....history/1/
Im thinking waiting for gameweek2
Aguero — > Defoe (For the easy next 6 weeks)
Lampard — > Michu
and Benching Cole for week3 (Maybe ill take a hit)
Any suggestions?
August 20 at 1:56 pm
Yash:FlopFPLPlayer says:
Cole could be benched! Tats what i’m doing! I feel Lamps’ a long term investment but u must choose one among Cashley or Lamps as to which one to retain! Defoe is going to the bench when the Ade-transfer eventually happens!!
August 20 at 2:31 pm
Minran says:
so who u thinking about taking for aguero? tevez?
August 20 at 5:12 pm
JoeAllenkey says:
Tevez. Even when Aguero returns Tevez is number two striker
August 20 at 1:40 pm
Simon says:
Could someone remind me of the name of the website that will help predict price fall/rises. There is totalfpl but I can’t remember what the other one was.
August 20 at 1:42 pm
Minran says:
fiso crackthecode
August 20 at 1:47 pm
Simon says:
Thanks
August 20 at 1:49 pm
Mick says:
How does this team look for next week?
De Gea/ Jussi
Zabaleta Williams Cuellar/ Heitinga McCartney
Santi Pienaar Michu Hazard/ Kacaniklic
Tevez Ba Rooney
August 20 at 1:53 pm
Yash:FlopFPLPlayer says:
Ba could be a real dark horse! shrewd move tat! Pienaar’s somebody I’m not too keen(but many are!) 8/10 in my view!
August 20 at 1:53 pm
Saint-Dutchie says:
What’s Kagawa going to do tonight ladies and agents…….will he play?
August 20 at 2:07 pm
Minran says:
Is defoe definitely getting benched? his like one of the most expensive players on the team
Even after the transfer, I can’t see them having such a expensive bench warmer
and does anyone know when adebyor is comin?
August 20 at 5:05 pm

http://fantasy.premierleague.c.....history/1/
Heres my team, im abit stuck on what to do
Mainly the problem is that i have 3 Chelsea, and don’t want 15 million on the bench for a game week 3
Im thinking waiting for the knee scan of Aguero
FT
Sinclair -> Dyer (Sinclair might not be starting)
Then in Game week 2, Take a Hit and do
Lampard or Ashley Cole —> Michu
Torres –> Rooney
And then hopefully Aguero will be fit Gameweek3 (Hoping Mancini won’t be too cautious)
I see this as a good option as it gets rid of 2 Chelsea players, with one on the bench for just a gameweek
Also, gameweek 2 is liverpool vs man city, I can’t see it being a huge game for Aguero anyways
Please give me ur opinions or possible options, this is truely messing with my head
