A successful 2011/12 promotion campaign saw Southampton rack up the goals as Nigel Adkins’ side finished second in the npower Championship. Having found the net 85 times last term, the Saints immediately placed Fantasy managers on alert and on the lookout for new blood for their squads. The most obvious and popular pick was Rickie Lambert who notched 25 goals in the Championship, while Adam Lallana and new arrivals Jay Rodriguez and later Gaston Ramirez have also been touted as potential Fantasy options. Even Morgan Schneiderlin – who had just two goals in almost 150 appearances coming into the season – has received some attention after his goal against Man United in Gameweek three.
Almost did that too... tempted to move Figueroa and Dyer to Puncheon and Baines... (using a lot of my spare cash) but would need a hit to do it...
Open Controls
I had him too. But I sold him for Santi Cazorla. And Cazorla has only outscored him by 2 points over the last two weeks. Not exactly paying for the hit I took...
Open Controls
Berba scenes!
Open ControlsDo we know how long it is? I've only seen the tweet, did Jol elaborate?
Open Controls
From a FPL perspective the news makes me laugh.
From a United fan perspective I'm gutted because it seriously damages Fulham's chances vs City.Open Controls
Whaaaaaatttt???
Open Controls
Thanks god i avoided that bandwagon!

Morning folks
I have 1 FT and £3.3 in the bank.
What to do?
Was thinking of replacing Tevez? If so, to Berba??
Foster, Begovic
Baines, Davies, Demel, Cuellar, Gorkks
Fellaini, Cazorla, Michu, Yaya Toure, Guthrie
Tevez, RVP, Fletcher
Thank youOpen Controls
Wish I could read these in detail, they've been pretty accurate so far. Always a concern with Puncheon that he'll be dropped, though.
Open Controls
Begovic (Foster)
Baines, Cuellar, Demel
Hazard, Michu, Cazorla, Pienaar
RvP(c), Fletcher, Tevez
Subs – Guthrie,Davies,Gorkss
Bench in the right order? might be needed if Cuellar/Tevez don’t play
Anything worth a hit? 1.2 in the bank
thanks
ps glad i got Fletch over berbsOpen Controls
How long is Berbatov likely to be out for?
Open Controls
2 - 3 weeks maybe. Just keep looking at the news

Hello! 🙂
Daniel's podcast out? Any injury news today?Open Controlsberba is out for tomorrow game
Daniel podcats-Can't waaaaait to hear that!!Open ControlsAh, just saw SD's post.
Thanks, Kostja!Open Controls
haha Daniel podcast? itll be how amazing chelsea are and how much avb sucks 🙂
Open Controls
'ello 🙂
Berba 😥Open Controls
@Kostaja-are you still getting Jelly this week?
i am set up do trasnfer later on today
and who you will C?Open Controls
Mark
Open Controls
Who is a bigger priority to get rid of: Graham or Tevez? Graham is nailed-on and has decent fixtures for the next 3 GWs, whereas Tevez will score well as long as he starts...
Open Controls
i believe graham isnt as nailed on. Luke Moore might get games very soon
Open Controls
This Berba injury could be a blessing in disguise for those considering Tevez > Berba. Save the trannie (if possible) and work out how to afford Tevez > Aguero next week with your 2 freebies!
Open ControlsWhat if you had two freebees?
Open ControlsWell Berba was the only player I was serious considering shifting Tevez for but now he's out of the equation I think I can afford to wait a week.
I have 2 trannies myself and I want to do Hazard > Bale this week.Open Controls
agreed
Open ControlsFeck, I was close in doing that transfer.
Thing is Berba missing out next week south will be a pain in the balls. Ful have nice fixt.Open ControlsHopefully he's confirmed either way for next weekend's game. That way we can make a proper decision and non of this 'will-he-won't-he' torture.
Open ControlsYeah, looks like I'm keeping Ba for Manu(h) then with enough cash to do Tevez to Kun if i have to next week. Otherwise 2 FT after gw 7 and the Int break.
Perfect.Open Controls
He' been Puncheon above his weight eh?? eh? eh 🙂
Open Controls
so Berba out = an even greater need for Adam Johnson to play.
Still unless it's long term I'm sticking with Berba and relying on my bench.
Tevez to Jelly still the way forward.Open Controlswhen you will make that transfer?
Open Controlsonce I see Everton team news that tells me Jelly is ok
Open Controls
cant decide between tevez to jelly or tevez to aguero, are you considering aguero at all?
Open ControlsI have considered him, but am 0.1 short of it. Truth be told the thing that is swaying me most is Everton's next 3 fixtures.
Open Controls
That is a hard call for you with Adam Johnson and Berb also in your team.
Open ControlsI know, I just get a feeling that once I sell Adam Johnson he will go like a train. MON is optimistic over him as there is no fresh injury, it may have just been a little tightness, he sat out training yesterday as a precaution. Unless Berba is out long term I see no reason to sell him.
Open Controls
Let's go! #TeamUSA
Open Controls
wow thanks to my cowardice nature I didn't do Defoe>Berbs. Well done me for being a pussy
Open ControlsNa. It's one of the fundamental rules of decision making. Make the decision as late as possible so you have the chance to make the most informed decision possible.
Open Controls
I have 2 free transfers this week and have been umming and arring as to what to do with them??
any suggestions of if its not broke dont fix it??

Ivanovic / Demel / Gibbs
Hazard / Ben Arfa / Michu / Yaya Toure

Ah, Christina, just the man. Would you recommend South Africa, Cape Town in particular, for a honeymoon destination in early November?
Can't really stretch the budget to safari-ing, but for beaches, sights, eating out etc?Open ControlsCape Town is great, but early November is not summer yet. Feb/March the weather is better. Johannesburg has great weather at the moment with 25-28 deg, but then you are miles away from the sea. Durban maybe? Humid all year around.
Why not a tropical island? Mauritius/Zanzibar(might be a bit 3rd world for some people though...LOL)
The islands have nice weather all year round.Open ControlsBTW, CT is great with lots to do - nice beaches Clifton/Camps bay. Cape town waterfront for sight seeing and dining. Table mountain cable car. Raddison blue hotel for sundowners. Stellenbosch/Franschoek for wine farms and wine tasting.
Open ControlsLooking at Sri Lanka as well, Mauritius is a definite possibility. Thanks!

A whole article about how he is good value and not one use of the pun "Puncheon above his weight"??? #missedatrick.

What about jelly?. Could be a great differential!
Open Controlsfew of us getting him in this week

Is Torres to Suarez worthwhile for a hit? I have Van Persie and Tevez as my other strikers.
Open ControlsPuncheon or sterling?
RVP Ba and Fletcher , or RVP Fletcher Lambert?Open ControlsThey've found that maths teacher and his 15 year old pupil.
Her 'What I did on my holidays' essay will be interesting...Open ControlsI know it's wrong to laugh at that, but I can;t help it, bloody genius.

Really like my strikers
Suarez,Jelavic,RVP
anyone with same combo?Open Controlswill soon have 2 of the 3. Was excited about my RvP, Jelly, Berba strikeforce until 5 mins ago.
If these injuries keep mounting up I may be forced to wc, whether I want to or not.Open Controlsif AJ will be fit you dont have bigger problems
if not you might be forced to play WC
specialy if berba will be oput 2-3 weeks
1 week is finbe but everything above that is notOpen Controlsyep, I have Federici as well. Hopefully AJ makes this week and berba is back next week.
You predicted I would use it by GW8, you may be be proved right, but it will be out of necessity, rather than desireOpen Controls
