Granville mentioned the same thing last week that they could delay them.

Baps are just mental. After weekend games, the bps always come out on the monday morning, even if there's a game that night. Which means that they can be announced before the gameweek is finished. Midweek games are confusing.

have 2 questions
1) Who to play next week out of Sess and Raylor. Newcastle are playing QPR at home and I'm already playing Krul and i'm a bit twitchy about doubling up. Sess goes to the bridge but chelsea are shite there and Sunderland is in a great form.
2) Who will be on pens in newcastle during Ba's absence Ameobi or Cabaye? This influences my decision to get Cabaye a lot. i know Ameobi doesn't get much playing time but he could with Ba's absence.Open Controls-
you have also got to think if newcastle will get many pens with Ba gone. Seriously would you rely on ameba brothers to get you into box

Best midfielder for the next two gameweeks for 6.8m or under?
Translation: Osman is getting gagged, I'm tying a LIDL bag over his head, butt raped (why not? Things were going that way), placed into a canon and fired into the sun never to return to my FPL team again.Open Controls-
Cabaye probably.
I went for Sess because I fancied the double price rise before WCing - Cabaye might give you that anyway.Open Controls

Any suggestions on this WC team?
Only leaves 0.2 in bank.
MIgnolet/Vorm
Richards/Evans/Simpson/Caulker/Kelly
Silva/Bale/Dempsey/Valencia/Sess
RVP/Aguero/Sturridge
All suggestions appreciated 🙂Open Controls -
I'm on 37 points with Bale, Ade (C), Jagielka and Drenthe to play again (If they do), if Drenthe doesn't Moses comes in for a massive 1 extra point. Only likely BP candidates I have are Ba and Bale from the 1st games.
Cup opponents on 46 with Ade (Not C) to play. His possible BP candidates are Ward, Vorm, Raylor, Naylor, Silva..
Am I out of the cup?Open Controls-
lol vorm for bonus

I was just throwing any likely candidates in for accuracy lol

Unless Bale and Ade run riot against Everton it looks like it to me. Sorry.

Anyone else think Newcastle will suffer massively now with Ba and Tiote gone? They will leave a massive hole in their team as far as I'm concerned...
Open Controls-
Big players to lose, bound to miss them, but they are a good side and Cabaye was outstanding last night.

Mcauley Caulker is trying to keep up with the Joneses. If they go to a good Taylor they'll be in good Kompany.

What about Jose and Enrique Iglesias?

Anyone else finding it really difficult to see a spot for a Man U player? Worked 3 or 4 WC teams and the only player finding a spot is Rooney? I'm sick of Nani, the defence is shot with Vidic out and I don't trust the midfield rotation!

could you imagine having a team without a United player?

Please pick, Ive made 2 drafts, a little variations here and there but here goes.
A) Vorm. Ruddy.
Kompany. Agger. Simpson. Caulker. Kelly
Silva. Bale. Dempsey. Sessegnon. Walters
Sturridge. Aguero. RVP
(0.0 in bank)
B) LINDEGAARD. Vorm.
Kompany. SKRTEL. Simpson. Caulker. Kelly
Silva. Bale. Dempsey. SESS/WALTERS. DYER.
Sturridge. Aguero. RVP
(1.5 in bank)
- A or B gents. and why?
- If B, Sess or Walters?Open Controls-
A. for me. Looks very solid, I only wish I could get all those players in my WC team..
Open Controls -
A easy. you willing to sacrifice Walters for Dyer just to get in Lindey, when you have top scoring keeper anyway and playing back up (obviously never going to get CS).
Obviously this leaves you with no man utd and only 1 spurs but thats why they invented transfersOpen Controls -
B because it will be difficult to choose your 4 midfield players (sessegnon or walters will be your dilemma each week and you'll be kicking yourself if and when you make the wrong choice)
i would prob upgrade kelly to someone more decent, maybe a MAN U defender like smalling or evans (despite their poor run of form, things will pick up again for sure)Open Controls

my wc team:
just planning though
vorm/szchwanser
kompany-BAE-sagna-enrique-simpson
moses-reo-cooker-silva-bale-sess
rvp-ba-kun
how's the team??
planning on 4-3-3 most of the weekOpen Controls-
-
I would downgrade a defender so you can upgrade Reo-Coker...
Schwarzer -> Krul
Sagna -> Kelly (Fulham)
Reo-coker -> Walters?
Bear in mind your lack of United coverage aswell once their form picks up...
Good Luck 🙂Open Controls

Right here is my reasoning for United's form this season.
After losing to Barcelona it all seemed to change. We were playing a completely different style of football up until after that defeat. From then on we seemed to play much more short direct passing football through the middle of the field as opposed to almost solid wing play and awesome Scholes' floaters. Our main instigator and tool of this directional play was Cleverley.
During the pre-season we got used to playing this way and Cleverley was seeing a lot of the ball, working incredibly well with Welbeck and Anderson. Since the injuries of these players early in the season, it seemed to take us a while to get back to any kind of form. It looks like we have reverted back to last season's style of play...but with Cleverley coming back soon and Anderson back in midfield, I hope we can get some of that form back.
This might be a little rambley and heaping a lot of praise on just one player, but I honestly think we'll start to play much better football as soon as Tom is back on the field.Open Controls-
Agreed, we desperately need a creative midfielder, Tom fits that spot. Hope it will work out for United.
Open Controls -
... and I reckon it was mainly down to Ando ... 😉
Open Controls -
well I guess it cannot get any worse then last night
Open Controls -
Oops Fratboy. This is nonsense in my view.
Open Controls -
We should be exposed to injuries like we have been. I know the injury list is unprecendented, but there should be enough numbers not to have to play players out of position. If anything our squad is too young.
Open Controls-
This is the time when a player's versatility comes to the fore. Players out of position is an absolute necessity at this point of time and if we had that many players in the squad, when the team is fully fit they would all be rotting on the bench. I strongly believe we need 1 world-class midfielder in the team. But that's it.
Open Controls -
The annoying thing about all of that is it seems Fergie is refusing to admit that our squad isn't good enough...I know we're still 2nd in the Premier League, but we're out of the Champions League, we lost to Crystal Palace in the CC and we're more than likely going out of the FA cup on Sunday. He'll probably ignore all of these things 🙁
Open Controls
-
Don't normally defend MU, but they have been incredibly unlucky with injuries this season. I can't really remember them having such big problems as this... Carrick and Valencia in defence the other week sums it all up.
Open Controls-
Sorry, utter BS. Blame Fergie who waved goodbye to O'Shea, Brown and only signed 1 (exensive) replacement in Jones.
Crazy with Rio's age and Vidic's injury history recentlyOpen Controls

Slipped down the leaderboard horrifically in the last 2 GW's, but have 2 FT to amend to some extent.
Vorm (Ruddy)
Enrique Vermaelen Simpson (Tierney, Evans)
Silva Bale Larsson Nani (Allen)
RVP Sturridge Ade
Was going to do either..
A) Verm -> Kompany
Larsson -> Sess/Walters
B) Verm -> Kompany
Enrique -> Kelly/Caulker
Larsson -> Dempsey
(4PT HIT)
C) Verm -> Richards (rotation risk)
Larsson -> Dempsey
Evans -> Kelly
Would be grateful for any help or suggestions. Thanks 🙂Open Controls-
bit tricky your team looks storng to me and may well start producing, we all good through poor weeks with good teams (except the bugger leading my mini league) so may be risk to do triple change

Hi
Would really appreciate your advice - does this team look OK:
Lindegaard (Vorm)
Enrique, Kompany, Evans (Simpson, Caulker)
Nani, Silva, Bale, Walters (McClean)
RVP, Aguero, Sturridge
Suggestions and opinions would be great please! I’d like to keep 3 united players (despite their current form…) but is it worth upgrading Evans to Jones and downgrading Simpson and McClean? have 0.9 in the bank.
Thanks!Open Controls -

is Friedel and Krul too much money on keepers, currently I have Freidel and Vorm, but they don't rotate well, Krul and Friedel do, but it leaves me weak elsewhere if I want Aguero

So, No BPs?

seems like a pretty common WC team...yet when I redo it every time I usually come out with a variation of the the following:
WC Team:
Vorm | Ruddy
BAE | Jones | Kompany | Brown | Simpson
Bale | Dempsey | Sessegnon | Cabaye | Valencia
RVP | Yakubu | Aguero

I'm looking for a striker punt to replace Ba with for 3 weeks. Maximum price of 7.8. I will then WC before GW 24.
Looking at the fixures my obvious options are:
Agbonlahor
Bendtner
Yakubu
Any other ideas/better options?Open Controls-
am in the same dilema with slightly more to spend, which is drawing me to Super Mario.
Gabby's early season form seems to have dipped, Bendy, no, Yak is a good choice
Bellamy could be an interesting punt, as could Zamora.Open Controls
