      I'm really wondering about benching Adam. I think that West Ham vs. Blackpool has the potential to be an absolute multiple goal thriller, and those are the kind of games I want my players p[laying in.

        yeh i guess your right, penalties also would mean Adam getting points.

        could bench jarvis, nani or carrol

        still undecided on vdv or a.cole to captain

    1) Nasri -> VdV
    2) Nasri -> Jarvis & O’Shea -> A.Cole
    3) Nasri -> VdV & O'Shea -> Bosingwa

    Which one would you pick? My defence is pretty dire at the moment, so I can't decide ðŸ™

            You confirmed by Dann > Vidic as a decent move which is good.
            Alcaraz has some nice games also coming up.

            So Dann > Vidic next week certainly looks tempting. Thanks.

              Mummy's position is under great threat, because he unbalances Sunderland's defence with his weak positional play. I believe he will soon be a bench player for Sunderland.

            At the moment my line up is like:

            Foster
            Simpson Jones Knight
            Mal Nani N’Zogbia VdV
            Carroll Drogba(C) Piquionne

            Hahnemann Fabs Coleman Elmo

            Bench choice & captaincy is ridiculously hard this GW!

                There's no one else that could take his place on the bench Declan!

                Haha. I'd take Carroll out and put Fabs in.

                Arse battered Everton last season and Fabs seems to be scoring better vs better opposition.

                  Carroll will be flying this weekend, you gotta be kidding. He's fighting to get into the England squad
