          Nani actually is on par with Young the price just makes him a bit better for me. I dont trust the defenders- since now that all are fit there will be rotation.

    Anyone considering the Yak? His fixtures are mint as and getting him in for Suarez would allow me to swap Woodgate for Baines.

    14 years, 11 months ago

    I am trying to second guess my cup opponent already he has better rank then me is in 10k, is prone to making successful 2/3 transfers per gw.
    His bench looks iffy to say the least, so I am hoping for injuries.
    Mignolet, Evans J, Mikel and Simpson.
    He has five of the same players I have (at the time of writing) mind games already šŸ™‚
    He is also Irish so its a local derby which adds to the pressure.
    He also has his wildcard to play.
