With almost two thousand votes now gathered in the goalkeeper of the season poll, it’s time to move our Team of the Season voting on to the defence.

Our new poll is now open on the front page. You have four votes available to you, allowing you to select the group of defenders that you feel have had the biggest impact on our Fantasy season. As before, you should take into account not only their point returns, but also their value from Fantasy perspective.

Your votes will help shape our thinking for our Team of the Season – with coverage beginning early next week. A midfielders poll will follow tomorrow evening with voting on forwards taking place over the weekend.

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

    The English FA has decided to abstain in the vote for the presidency of Fifa, citing "a well-reported range of issues":

    It's a shame that players that are out on loan are removed from the FPL site. Boselli would have been an epic captain choice this week for only in it for the lulz now. If he'd still been there I'd have found it hard to resist the temptation....

                    I quite liked him. He didn't score many goals but he usually created a few good chances thanks to his height, although the majority of fans didn't seem to realise it. Unfortunately they couldn't look past the fact that he's a) black and b) supposedly quite 'lazy'. He wasn't too popular with the fans too say the least....

                    Annoyed me quite a lot that. Forced me into making a melvin style post on the Forest Green forum defending him!

                    Well done for sticking up for him. It does my head in when fans give a player abuse based on previous performances.

      Wow. When I heard about it I just assumed that he did it for 10 or so seconds on the side of the pitch, still in his kit. Not all that!

      Broken record alert: Interesting how he's just won the Italian league, when last season he finished bottom in the Premier League with Grant - and Grant was still praised for the job he did! He had a midfield of Boateng - Serie A champion now, Yebda - playing well for Napoli and O'Hara. That side should never have finished bottom.

        But jamsie, Boateng played for Pompey so he must have been rubbish at the time. He's only become good now that he's signed for Milan.

        It's a curious one, no doubt. Although Altintop has been plagued by injuries, three successive Bayern coaches - Hitzfeld, Klinsmann, van Gaal - didn't select him as a regular, although he did well when called upon in the Champions League.

        The biggest clue to the move appears to be Altintop's advisor, Reza Fazeli, who also negotiated Mesut Özil and Nuri Sahin's moves to Real from the Bundesliga.

            I dont think he would be there but for Sahin to help him talk, fit in and be more comfortable.

      Ward as he is a forward that gets 6 pts per goal?

        Yeah, thought about him and been in scout picks but only 2 pts last 2 starts and Doyle might be back.

    don't really like goalscorer bets but here goes, got some funds from the ronaldo braces lately.

    tevez anytime @ evens, rvp first for his team @ 11/4, Odem anytime @ 15/8, mulumbu first goalscorer @ 25/1, s.fletcher first for his team @ 10/3. £1 on each.
    odds will likely be much better elsewhere, but if you lose it doesn't matter what the odds were πŸ˜‰

      Whats the odds for Steven Taylor anytime? Might be worth a cheeky quid.

        He better stay fit throughout next season. I like him as a cheapie defender option.

          Always at risk of doing comedy handballs, conceding owngoals and getting sent off. Usually all three at once.

            2 goals in his last 2 games. He's got that in his locker too.

        25/1 first goalscorer, 17/2 anytime. That's the odds on S.Taylor on Paddy Power Atilla.

          Not too bad. WBA can be vulnerable at set pieces and he's scoring lately

            Can see that game being a high scoring one!

            4-4 maybe?!

              Yeah I think there could be goals too. Probably be 0-0 now!
