Read the last couple of pages (including this one) for interesting info on the topic. The variables of your team's current construction, etc. obviously also come into it.

There ist a set answer to that mate, depedns what your plan is, I may wait as long as p[ossible, see how window pans out - Edinjeko, or however you spell it, could change Tevez's situation for instance.
Only prob is a DGW right after the last time you can use it ...v tempting...but could be destructive!

Congrats on spelling your name correctly. 😉

Almost as bad as 'why did I captain Adam'.

kolarov for terry maybe...is all i can see mate.

You're welcome 😉

Midfield is identical to mine except I have Albrighton instead of Yaya. My midfield has worked all season so you're fine there. Kingson isn't going to be keeper for very long at Blackpool. As soon as Gilks is back, he'll be between the sticks.

One problem with your team is that you will have a very hard job choosing a starting XI each week. You'd want a few players who you know are going to be on your bench, week in week out. If you know your preffered starting XI, you can downgrade those players to cheaper players and use it to make the players who are actually starting better.

Does that make sense? I might have rambled a little

your guna have to look at your keepers again soon, id rather go for a good solid rotation combao or a expensive keeper and a cheapie personally

ok except for keeps are poor, have you any dough left? I would look at Gordon an 'an other'

Oh, what are the chances of these guys not playing?:
Baines
Nasri
VdV
Bale
Tevez
Elmander

im happy enough with adam's 4 points however i nearly switched to nani which has annoyed me a bit

I'm not regretting captaining Adam. A lot of people were regretting it on the dugout discussion last night. If anything, I think he's on track. Considering I was expecting a minimum of 4, he's on target really.

theres nothing to say hes a def non starter only peoples opinion

i put him in my 11 but not too bothered either way if he plays as simpson home to west ham isnt worst alternative

the only wba player id consider would be brunt anyway, might get him in for the double week when i wildcard but thats it

We will talk no more of this.

How is it unfair?

Maybe it's a good pick 😛

Berba will always be a risk - when he's dropped it's at home. But his PPG is much better at home.

Add those 2 together and he's never a fool proof signing.

A), for this reason - Rooney has still got potential to score, he's behind the curve, while Berbatov and Hangeland are ahead of the curve - Hangeland usually gets one a season, this season three ...

Probably won't play at home to fast right wingers too.

I certainly wouldn't start him against any right winger who can run.

Maybe look at DJ or Varney instead of Odemwingie.. Also look at Fabianski instead Stockdale and another defender instead of Djourou..

I think I'm going to swap Brunt for Nasri after week 23

Can't see why anyone would get rid of VDV. Pound for pound he's certainly a better prospect than Fabs. I would get Fabs anyway even though you have Nasri, but not for VDV.

Spread your exposure a little. Keep the Vaart.

GW 24 seems all the rage. Gives two weeks to make any further amendments in the run up to the monster DGW's. Or, possibly keep two transfers & bring in two Goons straight after.

Ya I'm very close to my WC team as it stands.

Have a feeling it will polarize everyone's team around the same players too, especially with the double GWs and the majority having to use it at the same time.

yeah im sitting looking at it thinking just that

I've thought out roughly what I'm going to do and it's all pretty much possible without hits anyway, there are so many players in my team who I want to keep and have value tied into, I don't see the point is transferring out for DGW punts only to WC them back in at a 1 to 2 mil loss.

DGW*

nah that's gw28 mate. 27 is the massive double.

gwk28 u mean?

there are a few in gwk27

i hope not! what makes u think that?

no just came off after a decent performance and 3-0 up

duff impressed me the most last night tbh, WBA are missing like 6 first team players now, stil not convinced on fulham on the goal scoring front

depends who the doublers are, i dont want the gwk24 doublers longterm so am stocking up before and wildcarding after

gwk27 doublers i dont mind keeping

Yes they're gone.

IMO any GW27 wildcard has got to be looking at the next 5 or 6 just as much as the doubles.

yep goneski. 1 free after the wc

will have to see him play for city first.tevez will still be the main man imo

Very unlikely.

Tevez has an extraordinary record, and is one of the best players in the world. He'll keep pens and will play every match as captain. The only issue will be whether Dzeko alters the formation which could see fewer returns from Tevez.

Personally, I don't see it happening. He'll probably rotate with Balotelli.

"When Steve McClaren switched from a 4-4-2 to a 4-2-3-1 this season, Dzeko did not like playing as the lone striker and his form dipped."

According to duncan white from the telegraph.

both teams cuda scored 4-5 goals each and blackpool shoulda went at least 2-0 down in the first 20 mins!

wonderful game

blackpool were never going to win last night. Birmingham are the better team and they were cearly going to win their first away game of the season. just the way it works.

Agreed. See bottom of page 3 for my write-up.

My worry, and I agree there are obvious advantages to a WC in 24, is that most of the transfer window activity won't have happened then, and since most people are already loaded up on the two 'pools the only real watershed there is Man U over Chelsea, which could be achieved without hits anyway for many.

lol baby class... my sister was due to give birth last monday week, still waiting, and the way its goin ill prob miss it, im going to san francisco on sunday!

which means ill have to do with internet on the go to make my possible Wc team for 24 and keep up with info, gayballs

nct?

I like it.

Simpson over Jara maybe to save the extra dough. Baird, Coleman, Bardsley as your stalwarts leaves something to be desired though...

You need more players with amusing names. FPL hasn't been the same without Danny Shittu.

stay away from west brom defenders. they're awful.

this is why wildcarding now makes no sense. The best thing about the wildcard is you pick the best team going forward, fully on top of the fixture list with no changes needed. You've picked a wildcard team that already needs 4 changes to get it to where you want because your trying to stay on top of gw24, gw27 and gw28 onwards. On top of those 4 your defence is going to need immediate attention as bardsley and baird's fixtures go downhill from gw28 and evatt and jara aren't worth having no matter what the fixture list. So your wildcard team is starting you off with potentially 8 trades that NEED to be done to stay on top of the fixture list. Madness.

Blame the snow & Blackpools pitch.

Well hes in the middle of a double gameweek and has another two double gameweeks coming up so its probably better that you hold on to him given hes their main man.

if carroll goes i may well look at ameobi for my cheap striker option in a few weeks

I'm a Ben Arfa fan.. not a De Chop fan though..

Brunt has Blackpool at home.

been impressed all season. No way he'll be a blackpool player next season.

i was but you're relying on bps mainly as he does play deep, if i had him long term id like another cheapie that rotates well with him

Adam looke the best he looked so far this season for me. He should have scored when he beat Foster and hit the post. if the strikers did not finish so cr*p and Foster not pull of some brill saves, Adam could have had another 2 or more asists.

Im hanging on to both NZog & Adam for now.
