While some of us have already begun tinkering with the winter wildcards, there are five games taking place today as double gameweek 20 gets underway.

The big news is that Daniel Sturridge is not in the Chelsea squad- those overnight reports of a leg injury appear to have been true, then.

Here’s the line-ups of this afternoon’s four fixtures before Arsenal make their way to the Cottage this evening:

Blackburn: Bunn, Lowe, Samba, Hanley, Henley, Nzonzi, Formica, Dunn, Petrovic, Pedersen, Yakubu
Stoke: Sorensen; Woodgate, Shawcross, Huth, Wilson; Shotton, Whelan, Whitehead, Etherington; Walters, Crouch

Wolves: Hennessey, Stearman, Berra, Johnson, Ward, Hammill, Henry, Frimpong, Forde, Edwards, Doyle.
Chelsea: Cech; Bosingwa, Luiz, Terry, Cole; Meireles, Romeu, Lampard; Ramires, Torres, Mata.

QPR: Kenny, Hill, Derry, Gabbidon, Taarabt, Faurlin, Mackie, Barton, Young, Helguson, Ferdinand
Norwich: Ruddy, Martin, Drury, Johnson, Whitbread, Holt, Jackson, Pilkington, Bennett, Lappin, Ayala.

Aston Villa: Guzan, Cuellar, Dunne, Collins, Warnock; Petrov, Clark, N’Zogbia, Ireland, Agbonlahor, Bent
Swansea: Vorm, Rangel, Caulker, Williams, Taylor; Britton, Dyer, Routledge, Agustien, Orlandi; Graham

    Fulham knew they had great chance of winning when Wenger brought Squillaci on

    No RVP points = MASSIVE.

    Says it all when 5/5 from the top5 captained him. All my rivals captained him aswell. I guess 90% didn't know about the deadline but I still love it.

      If you have any "rivals" who captained RVP, then they are not proper FPL players and you shouldn't consider them rivals, let alone be pleased with beating them. That's a completely hollow victory.

          Who is to say that his replacement wouldn't have banged in the goals? Chamakh and Park can't be THAT bad. Wenger is a prat for playing an already tiring player in three 90 min games in 7 days. He has been leggy recently and worst of all he's been a greedy bastard.

          could have taken him off after his goal. arteta should never have played v QPR either. the effect was unbelievably obvious that 2nd half

    So the last time RVP didn't score and arsenal won was in GW 4 when they won 1-0 to swansea at home thanks to Vorm's mistake and Arshavins goal ( A strange GW indeed) .

    Huth 1, Etherington 5, Fletcher 4, RVP 2.

    Could be worse. Could also be a hell of a lot better if one of Huth's 98 attempts on goal per game ever goes in.

    Any everton supporters agree? I think Donovan will start on the right, with Drenthe bombing down the other side, Osman and Fellaini in the middle, and Cahill just behind Saha up front.
