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.

    Guys I have been trying to decide my transfers for 2 HOURS NOW! I am an extremely indecisive person :'(.

    Narrowed down to:
    Team A = Shawcross, Boswinga, Distin, Lamps, Bent
    Team B = Woodgate, A.Cole, Richards, Young, Suarez

    Team B also gives 0.5m.
    Which team and what captain from that team?

    PLEASE HELP.

      I think so many people will have transferred in Aquero because of the "wildcard" / last week score, that if he flops this week, it could cause mass transfers out and he could come down in value. This could happens for a lot of the bandwagons
