You can almost taste the romance of a Gameweek under floodlights. A midweek Fantasy deadline is upon us which presents the usual opportunity to sneak some last minute squad tweaks, armed with “actual real-life” teamsheets.

There are four matches tonight at the Emirates, Old Trafford, the Stadium of Light and the Hawthorns. Should you wish to gain the advantage of some early insight into the lineups from those games then the best place to source the information is our Dugout Discussion Chatroom.

We’ve opened it up nice and early to accommodate all your nighttime natterings.

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

            So wanted Drogba but the Roon + Berb + OT formula could not be ignored.
            In answer to your question: BERBATOV!

        That's the plan though, you decide on what you think is the best captain choice and then if you are thinking about changing it you know it's because of outside influence - so probably not worth it. Stick with what you've got and you aren't kicking yourself with the 'shouldda gone with x' argument.

          I got Odem in at about 7:27 but that was for Carroll (had to get rid of one of Carrol or Konch tonight).

          Was thinking of last minute gamble armband on Adam but think I bottled it back to Berbs.

    Deadline has past so I will show my WC team. I went for Berba upfront as a short term option. He was to much of a risk in that form, he could go wild again and I can not go without him. The biggest decision was benching DVD, ti was so difficult to do that, IF Tevez is rested than DVD will come as a sub and it will be big relief for me. I made early pundit on Walker and I went right he is starting tonight, hoping for a run of starts for him. I benched Foster for Myhill I had a hunch, I went only withe one Bir player Foster will see will I bring RJ. If I went with him that would mean risking with Berba going mad again. So I should stop and show u my team. Opinion appreciated.

    Myhill (Foster)
    Kolarov, Coleman, Kelly (Simpson,Walker)
    Nani, Adam, Fabs (c), Walcot (DVD)
    Berba, RVP, Tevez

    I hope to save my transfer in the next GW and I am looking forward selling Nani, I will be glad to do that and bring Young, Cahill, Brunt.

    Cheers and good luck to all.
    p.S. Sorry for the long post.
