The Saturday Surgery

The strange summer of October has dawned on us this Saturday morning and, with about an hour to go until Fantasy Premier League locks the doors ahead of gameweek seven, the regularly scheduled programming of the opening of the Saturday Surgery is nigh.

As clocks count down until Fantasy Managers are left but to the fickle fate of twenty rogue squads of Football Players we’re left to deliberate over those last gasp decisions…

Hopefully a week’s worth of Fantasy Football Scout material can help those in a deadline pushing quandary. The “Scout Committee” have put forward a new set of Scout Picks while our members can read in great detail as to why Gareth Bale got the call to arms.

The Weekend Team News is in (Wayne Rooney is fit) and our community have been scrabbling for days to try and decide on who to hand their weekly armband to.

Still in a fluster? Then the Saturday Surgery remains here to let you all duke this one out with fellow Fantasy Managers.

    Rooney or Aguero Captain? Everyone in my league has Rooney but I am the only one with Aguero. They are all bound to Captain him (as am I at the moment) but should i go for Aguero and try to catch up? Help!!

        I don't!

        I couldn't decide between Nani and Young, so I went for Silva. Rotation is still a big risk for those guys.

            Don't make me laugh.

            Norwich will be doing well if they keep Utd down to 5 or less. The fact that it'll probably be over as a contest after about 20 mins may save them.

            The Stoke and Basle results are quite possibly the worst results a team facing Utd could have asked for as they will now be determined to get it right today in front of their own fans.
