For 364 days a year, we can be forgiven for devoting our attention to the merits of acquiring Alan Hutton; today we really should focus on friends and family.

Having said that, the cunning Fantasy Football manager will always sneak five minutes to scan that Boxing Day fixture list one more time as the mince pies are warming. So, while I’ve got your attention, I’d like to extend a very Merry Christmas from myself, and all those involved in Fantasy Football Scout, to you and your families.

Once again, I must thank you all for the outstanding support you’ve shown the site – although I’ll reserve further sentiment for the New Year message, along with a preview of things to come from us in 2015.

For now, you ought to get back to mulling over Alan Hutton, whilst pretending to listen to that anecdote that the Father-in-law told last year. And the year before that. Get back to it: they’ll be missing you.

Having said all this, be sure pop back later today for our views on Gameweek Differentials, the Boxing Day armband, our Mondogoal tips and our round-up of all the great things to come from you, the community, in the past week. We’re all friends and family here.

Merry Christmas.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Does it make sense to get Giroud for hit even if I wont put armband on him?

      Depends. Who would make way for him?

        Costa for me

          10 years, 12 months ago

          Well I'd say No

        Rooney

          Well if Giroud would need to score one goal more than Rooney just to break even .. So i'll say NO

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 12 months ago

    Hart
    Baines, Naylor, Wisdom
    Haz, Sanchez, Yaya (C), Silva
    Austin, Kane, Costa

    Bench: Boyd, Bartley*, Yun*

    A) Yun > Terry -4 & bench wisdom
    B) No hit

    1. AWESOME-O
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 12 months ago

      I'd probably take the hit to get rid of Yun for Terry seeing as your bench is so thin

    @ANDERS
    What would u do with Costa ?

  6. Citizen kano

    Merry Christmas everyone! Any RMT advice appreciated. £1m ITB.

    Pants
    Baines, Zabaleta, Chambers
    Hazard (C), Sanchez, Yaya, Fabrigas, Siggy
    Austin, Bony (vc)

    Bench: Elliott, Sakho, Wisdom, Yun*

    Looks like Yun is the priority. Should I go with Hutton or Brown/O'Shea? Sunderland look better for this week (HUL) but Hutton looks better longer term with SUN, PAL & lei from next GW.

    Just wanted to say another great article by Mark, and totally spot on as I took a quick peek this morning worried about Hazard playing whilst the family Xmas activities were going on around me.

    Also, very happy that the podcast made it and played it Xmas eve while finishing the wrapping! I love this website and Merry Xmas to all.
