[sbu_large_image] Matchday Surgery

22 October 2011 599 comments

Andy

The Gameweek Nine doomsday clock is ticking louder and louder. Fantasy managers face the prospect of falling by the wayside or rising in glorious fashion with just a simple click of the button split between them.

With just an hour to go the Saturday Surgery is back…

The Scout Selection Committee has offered up our weekly Scout Picks to help those on their way – Big Dunc has provided a slice of alternative pie with his Differentials.

Johnfinlay has diligently provided everyone with all of the week’s Team News while Mark and Sir Paulos have given Fantasy Managers all sorts to worry about be it our Watchlist contenders or giving our paid Members a bit of extra bang for their buck with some Talent and Monitor pieces to stew over.

Meanwhile, Granville has been using the Scoutcast to do what it is that he does best.

Let us wile away this 60 minutes and make the right choices. Cooler heads prevail.

  Assou-K to Simpson IMO - playing away from home and Tottenham rarely keep CSs, especially with their current defensive injury situation.

Bennett for norwich is one to watch only 1 assist so far but is as attacking as pilkington so may get his share of points soon.

Not a high scoring week for me then 🙁

Vorm
Bosingwa | Enrique | Simpson
Nani | Silva | Eagles | Sinclair
Rooney | Aguero | Adebayor (C)
SUBS:Ruddy | Pilkington | P Jones | N Taylor

Hoping for Bosingwa/Enrique Cleanies,Simpson wont start.
Nani/Silva an assist between them maybe???
Eagles/Sinclair could produce a Goal + Assist between them???
Rooney/Aguero a Goal + Assist between them hopefully
ADEBAYOR GIVE ME A HAT-TRICK U SEXY BEAST!!!!!!!!
