Tuesday’s Matchday Surgery

A Gameweek under floodlights brings a midweek Fantasy Premier League deadline – not only that we’ve got the lure of double fixtures to consider. That all adds up to a supremely busy Tuesday evening around here, with plenty of Fantasy Managers wiping away the perspiration in search of some last minute inspiration.

We’ve opened up the Matchday Surgery chatroom nice and early for you to allow you time to settle in, find yourself a seat in the stand and try to fight off those last minute knee jerks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

          I'm in no position to give advice, but I will anyway 😉 Try and keep patience with the key players from stronger teams when they have weaker opposition coming up. West Brom at home is a great fixture for Dempsey and Hangeland, and they have Wigan followed by Stoke next.

              Ouch, these DGW's are sometimes very distracting. It seems like your whole transfer strategy has been invested into this one and it really isn't worth that much.

        I watched the game. He was class... Although he does absolutely nothing defensively. Whenever Blackpool lose possession he basically sits down in the middle of the pitch and waits for one of his minions to regain possession.

        He'll probably get signed by a decent club and it will be a disaster as he'll be expected to contribute defensively.

        He doesn't seem to have an impact playing off the forward either. In the last fifteen minutes - after Southern came on - Adam pushed forward and barely even got a touch. Blackpool actually fell apart after Varney went off.

      Possibly. I wouldn't fancy him against Theo, if they were to both start.
