We were struggling this week. Crippled by a cold that was verging on deadly man-flu, I made a miracle recovery without the aid of placenta treatment to struggle into the studio to infect/accompany Mark on another podcast.

My ailments were not my only curse; only last weekend my extraordinary run of missing out on penalty saves continued when Tim Krul (no pun intended, but I’ll take it), palmed away Lampard’s effort. Inevitably, I’d left the Dutchman on my bench.

Mark refuses to buy the fact I’ve missed out on a penalty save for five years, diverting the discussion towards the mini-league gap, chatter on Van der Vaart and debate over United’s plight at both ends of the field.

The usual smattering of regulars are all present and semi-correct – if you can understand a word I’m saying, you might just enjoy it all.

    In a bit of a pickle. Horrible last week.

    Hernandez, Santos, Given, Drenthe and Tate injured.

    Really dont want to wildcard with the xmas one coming soon but may have to. What do people think?

    Vorm Given
    Santos Enrique Brown Simpson Tate
    Silva Dyer VDV O'Hara Drenthe
    RVP Hernandez Ade

    Could do Hernandez --> Ba
    Santos --> Jones / Verm for 4 points and hope VDV plays. Would have to play O'Hara at OT

    Or wildcard

      Tough situation. I'd hold fast on the wildcard. You can get away with a 4 pt hit. The transfers you outlined look good. Personally I wouldn't go for Ba but I can fully understand the love for him here. Yak and Sturridge are the other options. I think Newcastle may hit a wobbly patch.

          Thinking about it again, the VDV > Bale switch isn't such a bad option, and it will give you some money to upgrade Dyer/Ferguson.

        I put a possible team up halfway down page 6. Haven't transferred yet as clearly it's a bit way out and I wanna think it through. If VDV is confirmed out yes, probably happening, if not still maybe. May do sometime in the next couple of weeks otherwise, once I've seen if I'm right about him starting.

          If I sell Aguero, I may look to get Nasri or Johnson for week 17 for some extra City cover. He seems to be ahead of Milner now in the pecking order and he could be a serious differential. And I haven't made any maverick transfers in ages so a crazy punt is overdue 😛

            Yeah it's a crazy punt alright! In your situation selling Aguero it makes even more sense. Yeah my conclusion from checking the stats was that he was ahead of Milner and Johnson. Been starting with Silva recently despite CL, imagine what would happen without CL. keep me updated what you plan to do, I might do something outrageous before the deadline depending on how team news comes in. Obviously the sensible thing is to not transfer in City til after the Chelsea match, but what score do you predict?

              I think City will win maybe 1-2 or 1-3. They're looking fairly unstoppable atm, not sure Chelsea have a chance. I think Nasri is a great shout though, the problem is that the game with Stoke is 3 days after Arsenal so there could be some rotation.

                Hmmmmm that 3-day gap does make things messy and might delay when you'd want to make the switch. I'm sure the rotation will be done so the best team is selected for Arsenal and I think that could include Silva and Nasri. But as for Stoke... got to be down to one at least with Johnson/Milner /both coming in for them. That match is either a write off or you make one more smart transfer to exploit the likelihood of those differentials coming in.

                The other bigger question is whether to hold City players for Chelsea and Arsenal, following the trend of big games producing big scores this season. I fancy Mancini is uber aggressive against all PL opposition because he believes they are better than them all. He goes defensive in Europe because he doesn't there. So yes, could be 2-3 goals for city in each. They have averaged around 3 and it hardly went down for United!

        It is the day after City exited the CL so I got to admit it may be early until we at least see a match! Just clarify I wouldn't get Nasri as 4-3-3, I'd want 4 mids to get enough cover.

        Don't understand the love for PPi numbers here. The difference of a few PPi points generally means the difference between three bonus points and two. Pick defenders on their potential to keep clean sheets and goals/assists. PPi scores take a backseat in terms of importance. Having said that, Enrique is a better option than Agger anyway imo.

      Defence is looking good with them Blackburn, QPR and Everton respectively. Chance of all 3 getting one.
      Midfield is quite weak but it means you can have a strong frontline and if Rooney starts scoring you have a great differential with fantastic fixtures.

          Im not sold on Yak at all and wont touch him, but Im probably on the deep of the minority.

          If you dont wanna go above 5.7 for a forward then I guess it has to be him or prolly Long imo.

        No I can't, I'd have 9.4 left, and I want to get Westy out for Schwarzer next week which will cost me .5. My plan was just to do Brunt - Mata/Nani and swap Tiote for someone like Dyer or Allen.

            no Vorm and Westy have shocking fixtures and no rotation, i need to lose Westy. Brunt is good for 2 weeks (they have Rovers after Wigan) Gives me a chance to look at Mata and Nani and make a decison, Tiote could be kept until winter wc, but then I'd be tempted to spend cash trying to get Smalling, Jags or ShawX in. Not much work needed so losing points shouldn't be a problem.

    Would be much appreciated if anyone can RMT, there's a couple of things I'm thinking about, and I'm not sure what to do for the best really.

    My team at the moment is:

    Vorm, Krul
    Wilkinson, Ward, Kompany, Simpson, Brown
    VDV, Ramsey, Silva, Walters, Drenthe
    Ba, RVP, Adebayor

    I was thinking about doing any of the following, would be for a 4 point hit:

    A) Wilkinson/Brown and Ramsey OUT, Jones and Gower in.
    B) Ward and Ramsey OUT, Vermaelen and Gower in.
    C) VDV and Ward OUT, Bale and Vermaelen in.

    However, on the other hand I'm thinking isn't my real issue to sort out, Drenthe?

    Any advice is much appreciated. I have one free transfer and 0.7 in the bank. Thanks in advance!

      AB, on your Johnson punt - City play Sunderland in GW19 2 days before Liverpool so that could be another start for AJ. I might have to sell Aguero next week too, so I'll be looking at getting a City midfielder, Nasri or Johnson probably for GW17.

    In a bind, I gambled and now am left with the following:

    Vorm (Schwarzer)

    Richards, Enrique, Kompany, (Simpson, Shawcross)

    Silva, VDV, Larsson, O'Hara, (Tiote)

    RVP, Ade, Sturridge

    I have .5 in the bank and 1 free transfer. Not feeling confident and i would like to know if VDV > Nani is a smart play?

    I am aware that my defence is expensive (gambled on Kompany & Richards for past month) and will be losing one of them soon but I feel the midfiled requires more attention 1st.

    Thanks for any feedback in advance!

      I'd swap Kompany for Jones as top priority, having Studge v 2 defenders is not good IMO, other than that if you want to upgrade mid (though I don't think you need to, get ShawX out for Wilko and it gives you 1.1 to play with.

        Vidic out concerns me re MANU ability to now keep clean sheets, as the boys say in the podcast surely MANU have to now attack to win games and not grind out 1-0 wins? Therefore is Nani in for VDV a better option than Jones in for Kompany? I'm not afraid of a 4 point hit this week.

          VdV more likely to get a big haul than Nani, United still kept CS without Vidic and let's not forget that Vidic helped cause the first goal v Basle by jumping into Smalling. Still think Jones is a viable option and that defence v Studge thing still worries me.

      Team has a couple of risky gambles which you should try to keep to one at a time. Baines - such a risk after Everton lost to Stoke at home and bad timing. Bannan - not the time. Nani a gamble too. Morison, I really dunno. Ba a bit of a gamble given NEW loss and loss of players. More to the point, you're drunk and on FPL and thinking of wildcarding? Quick! Shut down!
