An hour until the Fantasy Premier League deadline kicks in so the Saturday Surgery is open once more to help soothe any last minute ailments.

Wayne or Robin? No, not a Batman conundrum, but the more important matter of with whom to hand the captain’s armband this upcoming gameweek.

A smorgasbord of Watchlist movers and shakers for your long term considerations, the Scout Selection Committee’s Choice Cuts and Big Dunc’s favoured Differentials and all the weekly Team News should help Fantasy Managers in their time of woe.

Keep calm and carry on. The Saturday Surgery is open once more.

    Anyway are people backing Rooney for the captaincy or is Silva a better bet?

    How does my team look?

    Begovic (Ruddy)
    Kompany Simpson Ward (De Laet Bosingwa)
    Silva Nani Dyer Wright-Phillips (Ferguson)
    Suarez Dzeko(C) Rooney

    Also, I'm toying with the idea of swapping Nani for Mata or Walcott?

    Is the starting XI and bench right?

    Given,
    Baines,Simpson,Lescott,
    Silva,Sess,Sinclair,Moses,
    Suarez,Rooney(C),Dzeko.

    Subs: Ruddy,De Laet,Bosingwa,Surman.

    Might change the (C) to either Baines or Dzeko,we'll see.But should I start De Laet instead of Moses and hope for an unlikely NOR cleanie?

      Not worth a hit in my opinion.

      Petrov horrible fixtures after this GW for a while. Dzeko rotation risk and Dyer not really an upgrade over Larsson.

              I'm sure he will.

              Mancini spoke about Tevez having to bide his time, and Balotelli won't be starting for a while. Aguero has had the most minutes whilst Dzeko got a complete rest last week.
