He's not worth a hit

Lovely stuff. RVP Rooney ahoy!

Just how I called it the other day 🙂

United already through to UCL 16 as the group leader. So Fergie will play second team there. I think Fergie will concentrate on League matches and rotation will not be there for a few months, I reckon.

I did. I dropped him. 🙂

The manager said he's likely to start. I think I'll keep him.

i have both and i'm benching sterling

Lambert was decent against West Brom.

Definite starter this week.

why not ?

I would say 2 is plenty. One bad game and 1/3 of your outfield players are a write off.

No, too many eggs in one basket

Might be good.

how about jelavic instead of pienaar

I wouldn't triple up cause after the next 3 games you'll only want one

Haven't listened to it, but 'must have'? Really?!

He's bound to score against us!!

Bubbles... he was mentioned as well as Michu and Fell as you having to own at least 2 of that trio.

Each to their own, I think there's better.

Agree

Agree. Red cards galore ... 🙂

They are saying 2 of Michu, Fellaini, Nolan are must haves

He scored vs Citeh last week, and I believe the goal was "legit" and should have stood. That would have meant 11pts instead of 3 pts and a major bandwagon.

Yeah fixt are crap, but nothing pisses me of more then when he scores and I don't own him.

I'm keeping.

he scored against Man City...

Yes. A very good chance, imo.

The team news (BBC) on Monday night suggested that Ramriez return was the reason for Punch missing out against Reading. The stats seem to back this up with him having made bit part appearances in most of the games when Ramirez has been fit (that may be complete bollox though, with which case I stand corrected). I swapped him out for McAnuff last week.

Baines > Sagna would make my plans a whole lot easier!! Don't know if I could bring myself to do it though

the 4 would have been a 6 if it wasn't for the unlucky own goal.

I may ditch in a few weeks, based on fixtures, with a view to reconsidering things during the January WC.

Yes. Well, the fixtures are decent for the next few but I'm fed up with him at the moment. But this is classic Baines in my team. Always seems to score well when not in my team, not so when in my team. He's a right bastard.

I was going to and bring Vermaelen. I've scrapped that idea.

My problem is I would want Baines for my Jan WC for SWANS/south/WBA/VILLA and I'm not going to pay a premium for him after getting him for 7m.

So, I'm keeping.

I plan to keep him unless long-term injured..

either way, after the next three fixtures i think i'm going to get rid. Ive never been as much as a fan as others and he only seems to do well when i don't have him

Not while he is near the top of this lot:

😀

My head is getting turned everytime I log on now. I think Rafael could well outscore him over the next while, would give me enough to nicely upgrade crouch

Yep. Regardless of his form over the next few weeks I'll be binning him for GW14. At the moment he is a good differential for me as my nearest rival doesn't have him, but downgrading him would free up a nice bit of cash

Weirdly he's a differential in my ML so certainly keeping him short-term. But, agree, certainly not untouchable while getting scores like that is he. Statistically on the other hand, he hasn't really stopped making tonnes of chances each game.

Problem is that if I ditch him, he's too expensive to get back. He was very popular in first few weeks after some big hauls which means his price will be kept afloat for the rest of the season by all the dead teams.

Jevans doubtful for tomorrow's game.

I was considering, as I dont like any of their mids, but There just seems to be too much rotation there. I think Ferdinand could actually be the best second option along with Rafa at this moment as he wont play any more CL or Cup games.

+1

Yup.

wao... me 2...regular part of my team last season

valencia surely...c their fixtures man

valencia , walcott too risky to start, nothing wrong with doubling up on man u for their fixture run

michu very doubtful though 😉

Cazorla.

All quite nice options. Cazorla for me.

Aguero

Taylor could be a good option.

Is Simpson definately out?

I think it'll be a bit patchwork this week with Colo, Simpson, Tiote and Perch all out. But (I think) Tiote is back next week who they've really been missing so I'd consider him then definitely.

Get rid of fletcher

Yes...I'm and put armband on him.

i did it on sunday for the extra money....worked out spiffing and if he has a game or two before the yellow then even better....You may have missed the rises though..unless he bags one or two more this weekend...

3-5-2 isn't me but I'm gonna paly Kightly and bench Lukaku (whom I'm looking to show the exit anytime soon, although I did Lambert>Lukaku last week!!).
