Seven three o’clock kick-offs with Chelsea, United, Liverpool and Spurs all enjoying home comforts – the scene is set for a bonanza of Fantasy points. While such a scenario has a habit of smacking us round the chops, we’re remaining optimistic and have opened our Dugout Discussion chatroom ready to soak up your views as the points pour in.

It’s safe to say that the Old Trafford clash between United and Bolton will carry the biggest expectation amongst the Fantasy fraternity. Wayne Rooney and Nani will go into the game with armbands stacking up, while Tottenham’s attacking talent will again carry our hopes as they face up to Wolves at the Lane.

Good luck for the Gameweek, we’ll see you on the other side with the Knee Jerk.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Stat from Infostrada: "In total Rooney has missed six of 14 career PL penalties, including four of his last eight." Who should take penalties for ManU right now?

        Neither...actually I sort of do.
        McClean the most likely for attacking points and with Vorm on the bench also, I thought Caulker over Kelly in case of another Swansea home field heroic effort..

      Morison or Fletcher are the two best cheap striker I would say. I have always kept a good distance from the Yak due to his inconsistency and the fact that Blackburn are as rubbish as they get. After so many people now have transferred in Yakubu it's been hard to stop smiling after the red card came. 🙂
