The Saturday Surgery

It’s like last week never happened. Up until Man City woke us up from a weekend long slumber it seemed like it almost never did.

Unlimited transfers. Unlimited options abound. Unlimited panic with just limited time remaining. Three rooms, not four, available to offer Fantasy Managers our best thoughts as they search for divine inspiration in these final minutes.

The chatroom is available for people to confab on their last minute decisions before the ever approach deadline looms.

I’ll be with you, on the front-lines, wondering exactly what to do, as I’ve got full funds leaving me stuck between my very own rock (Wayne Rooney) and hard place (Darren Bent) for a final striking spot in my squad.

    Got lost on the last page, sorry for the re-post!

    So I’ve got:

    Given

    Bosingwa Kompany Hughes (I know, not many home games)

    Hoolahan N’zog Silva Young Moses

    Aguero Suarez

    –

    Vorm Zamora Simpson & G. Cahill on the bench

    And I insane to bench Zamora? As much as I love Fulham, I’m not sure they’ll score this weekend.

    Also, who fancies VdV over Young? Bit worried about the European hangover, but he's been on fire as of late.

    Thoughts?
