   The Knee Jerk – Snow-vember

   Filed under: The Knee Jerk - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   Lets be honest its bloomin’ cold in Blighty at the moment. Whilst the majority can sit tight at home wrapped in blankets with a hot drink, many hardy souls still brave their local grounds to watch and support their teams whatever the weather. For them the inconvience of a cold nose is overidden by the [...]

   The Knee Jerk – Flo Mo Money Mo Problems

   Filed under: The Knee Jerk - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   He might be Chelsea’s top goal scorer in the Premier League but the signs are that Florent Malouda may well not be the cast iron FPL selection his early season form suggested. Malouda scored 6 goals in his first 5 games (one of those five games being a 7 minute cameo against West Ham) to [...]

   The Knee Jerk – The Inevitable Red Arrow

   Filed under: The Knee Jerk - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   You could nearly make a half decent eleven with the players who didn’t play this Gameweek. I was tempted to sit and try and get a team together just to highlight this fact and, well, I could have done it but it got a bit contrived. (Alex Baptiste?) Needless to say there was a number [...]

   The Knee Jerk – Super Mario Sees Red Kart

   Filed under: Featured, Scout Reports, The Knee Jerk - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   If ever a game summed up a player, surely Sunday’s match between West Brom and Manchester City showed us all the two sides of City’s prodigious striker Mario Balotelli. The Italian rewarded the faith of his manager with two goals in six minutes in only his second start in the Premier League. Unfortunately for Mancini, Balotelli made the transformation from hero to villain with a straight red card in the second-half for a reckless kick during a tangle with Youssouf Mulumbu.

   The Knee Jerk – The Little Pea

   Filed under: Site Features - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   Chatter in the Fantasy Football Scout halls this week has been constant and along the lines of; “I’m thinking of bringing Fabregas in, I need to take a hit, who should I get rid of?” Given the fact that second placed Arsenal are at home to struggling West Ham, this comes as no surprise. The [...]

   The Knee Jerk – Tevez brace Ian Evatt-able

   Filed under: Site Features - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   Two entertaining games saw seven goals scored, El Capitan for many Carlos Tevez striking a brace and Liverpool, in spite of the fillip of a completed takeover, continuing their terrible start to the season. For many this weekends subplot was the captaincy debate – Tevez vs Nani. Overall Tevez (just) edged it with 12 points [...]

   The Knee Jerk – Would the last person to leave Anfield please turn off the lights

   Filed under: Fantasy Football Tips, Site Features - Posted by: Im Not Marshal Foch

   Lets take a bit of a journey down memory lane to month ago, to the end of Gameweek 3. If like me you can’t remember what you did yesterday let alone a month ago, allow me to remind you – this was the last international break. Like them or loath them this period saw a [...]
