There’s just a little time before the Fantasy deadline, so if you’re still pondering transfers, captain selection or even the order of your substitutes bench, then the Saturday Surgery chatroom is the place to go for immediate views and opinions from your Fantasy Football peers.

There’s no early kick-off today, so the Dugout Discussion will pop up just before the 3pm games with all the accompanying team news.

Akers Richard or Akers, as he is known, has been regularly haunting this site since July 2008. He is young and foolish, take what he says with a pinch of salt. Follow them on Twitter

    Like many people here I'm torn between giving the armband to Kuyt or Silva. With Liverpool having and early KO tomorrow I wonder does anyone know if there are stats suggesting a higher or lower no of goals in early KO's compared to normal times?

      Someone posted earlier that the early Sunday kick off Sky games tend to be low scoring ones. Not sure if that's scientifically proven though, so make of that what you will.

          I have taken the Dzeko gamble...if he plays, he will be more likely to score than Balotelli imo (and less likely to be sent off!)

    I think I'm going to go Suarez captain simply because if I go Silva I can't get form or value to go on Suarez should he not play (unlikely I know).

    That's a terrible way to decide a captain...

        I think both will do well, but Silva's got the easier game and his home record is actually very good.

        I'm captaining Silva this week because I'm going for VdV next week now. If I had Kuyt then it'd be him, no questions asked. Better hurry though as you only have 2 mins left to make your mind up.
