Gameweek nine kicks off with Everton journeying down to London to face off against Spurs in our early kick off, and there’s a few changes afoot.

Harry Redknapp has drafted Rafael Van Der Vaart back into his team after sitting out the thrilling 4-3 defeat at Inter Milan a couple of days ago through suspension, Bale has a little petrol left to continue at left midfield while Kaboul and Palacios also drop into the starting eleven.

David Moyes sees Mikel Arteta assumedly fail his late fitness test to join Leon Osman in being replaced by Diniyar Bilyaletdinov and, returning from injury himself, Steven Pienaar. The teams in full are…

Spurs XI: Gomes; Hutton, Kaboul, Gallas, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Palacios, Modric, Bale; Van Der Vaart; Crouch.

Everton XI: Howard; Neville, Distin, Jagielka, Baines; Coleman, Heitinga, Pienaar, Bilyaletdinov; Cahill; Yakubu

We’ll then take in the 3pm kick-offs with the armband heavy Chelsea hosting Wolves drawing the most fantasy attention around other fixtures like West Brom versus Fulham and Sunderland versus Aston Villa, to name a couple. Rounding out our Saturday will be West Ham versus Newcastle in the late kick-off, Andy Carroll probably had to rent a car to make it down today.

The Chatroom will be open as usual throughout the day for those of you looking for interactive conversation fix.

            Is Ashley Cole expensive? Oh yes.

            Is there value in them there hills? Oh yes.

            I don't understand why I've seen people constantly dispute this over the last few weeks, he's pretty much a lock Chelsea defender (which is useful) who plays far up the pitch. Expensive, but worth it.

        Going in circles with my transfers, did 3 last week and hoped i have got rid of my injured players and have ended up with 2 more on the bench: arteta & davies.

        Would have gone with fabs or vdv if i knew arteta wasnt playing.
