Saturday Surgery – Gameweek 4
Filed under: Matchday Surgery - Posted by: Mark
Back from the break – it’s been a testing fortnight and the ticking tock of a Fantasy deadline is most welcome. A Saturday morning deadline does still present the usual dilemmas and, as usual, we’ve opened up our Surgery Chatroom to help you get real-time views to help you through.
Normally, we’d use this post to sum up with the week that’s past but, in a new article, Andy has crashed in to do this in style via his “Catch-up”. Soak it all up here while you prepare for the deadline and the early kick-off at Norwich which triggers our Dugout Discussion.
The Pre-Match Preamble follows…

Steel Arm - Berba "Unstoppable, Unforgettable... Irreplaceable." says:

Natster | The Shuffling says:
Thanks Elnino and Balotelli for answers on previous post.
Sorry to repost as I really need some more comments.
Trigger WC now and gain immediate returns. Yes or No?
1: Wipe out -8 pts hits.
2. Make these 6 changes.
Davis & Ruddy ->> Foster & Begovic
Zabaleta ->> Baines
Nolan & El Ahmadi ->> Ben Arfa & Guthrie
Torres ->> Berbatov
Worth it?
The new team will look like this.
*Foster – *Begovic
*Baines – Rangel – Jenkinson – Demel – Clyne
Hazard – Cazorla – *Ben Arfa – Michu – *Guthrie
RvP – Tevez – *Berbatov
September 15 at 10:41 am
pontus says:
Interesting with Berbatov over Fletcher there. What is your reasoning?
Otherwise it looks great.
September 15 at 10:43 am
Natster | The Shuffling says:
Just base on last week, I think Berbatov looked more dangerous and involved with team more than Fletcher..
September 15 at 10:44 am
In Like Flynn says:
Berba is a proven quality player, and at 6.9 cheap for the potential.
September 15 at 10:50 am
GREENDREAMS11 says:
Hi flynnie, which Brighton def other than bridge for champ ff mate ?
September 15 at 10:41 am
In Like Flynn says:
Yes go for it. It’s not just about this GW, but improving your team going forward.
September 15 at 10:47 am
In Like Flynn says:
Jenkinson to Sagna when he returns if you have the funds. A week or two to think about it anyway.
September 15 at 10:51 am
Natster | The Shuffling says:
Thanks Flynn..
September 15 at 10:48 am
Willis_Hide says:
Play Gunter (TOT) or McAuley (ful)?
September 15 at 10:49 am
TriDk says:

NOLAN/ BARFA/ PETRIC
September 15 at 10:53 am
josc87 says:

Y’all got me panicked about captaining RVP now. Should I stay calm or switch to Cazorla?
September 15 at 10:53 am
garthsheehan says:
SANTI for me….but im a gambler
September 15 at 10:56 am
lfc123 says:
just gone Cazorla instead of RVP, last min change :/
September 15 at 11:01 am
benzieyeah says:
just thinking, fergie did say he wasn’t going to underestimate the CL group stage this year because of what happened last year… i might make a last minute switch too
September 15 at 10:54 am
garthsheehan says:
Just checking…cause i live in New Zealand and get confused with the time zone stuff……are we 35min from lockout????
September 15 at 10:58 am
Natster | The Shuffling says:
yes.

Correct

September 15 at 10:58 am
Tin of Directors says:
Morning my friends.
Thoughts on this team?
For the first time in ages I feel totally confident with my team ages before deadline.
DDG
Walker – Jenks – Cashley
Michu – Carzola (v) – Nolan – Hazard
Pog – Tev – RVP (c)
Davis – Demel – Saylor – Kaca
Sub order and captains OK??
September 15 at 11:25 am
Kobra says:
Nice… Everything’s good.
If your on wildcard, I would do Walker–>Baines (Totts in bad form)
September 15 at 11:01 am
Rooster McBooster says:
Villa to get a result today, thus ruining everything?
September 15 at 11:02 am
nozza says:
Should I do Hangeland to Jenkinson?
September 15 at 11:01 am
Tin of Directors says:
Sagna close to return.
It would be short term and Arsenals fixtures stiffen after this GW.
I’d say a definite no.
September 15 at 11:05 am
GREENDREAMS11 says:
No dude, bad move IMO. Arsenal have 2 tough fixtures coming up and Sagan due to return soon. Fulhams fixtures are decent
September 15 at 11:09 am
nozza says:
Thanks for replies, good points well made. Will put brakes on that idea
September 15 at 11:10 am
benzieyeah says:
New thoughts on RVP…. there are 3 real possibilities:
1) He starts and probably gets about 60-70 minutes (plenty)
2) He doesn’t start and united are comfortable so doesn’t come on (fine if Caz is VC)
3) He doesn’t start and united need a goal with 20 to go. He comes on and probably scores the winner (OK)
September 15 at 11:25 am
Kobra says:
4) He plays full 90min and scores double hat-tricks XD
I’m hoping for 4.
September 15 at 11:19 am
Kobra says:
A) Foster + Reid
B) Jaask + McAuley
WHich pair to choose? I want to get most cover.
September 15 at 11:20 am
hra says:
Kevin Nolan or James Morrison for the next 6 matches?
September 15 at 11:27 am

anyone?
