This feels new. A Friday deadline, a Friday kick-off. While we cackle with the laugh of an evil genius at the prospect of mini-league rivals who may have been taken by surprise by today’s schedule, why not pop into the Dugout Discussion Chatroom to enjoy the unusual events of the day alongside your Fantasy Football peers.

Today’s single Premier League game is at the Liberty Stadium where the Swansea defence and possession game faces up to the league’s in-form striker – Papiss Cisse. This might well provide a tasty amuse-bouche before tomorrow’s main course.

There’s some rather interesting team news from the home side. Brendan Rodgers drops Danny Graham to the bench having watched the former Watford man fail to score in six, recalling Luke Moore to the starting lineup. Scott Sinclair, rather surprisingly, finds himself sitting next to Graham on the bench as Rodgers brings in Nathan Dyer and switches Wayne Routledge to the left-flank. We therefore presume that Gylfi Sigurdsson will be on spot-kicks. Andy is hovering over the Tweet button already.

As for Newcastle, James Perch shakes off a calf injury to take his place in a defence which includes the recalled Davide Santon. He starts at left-back with Jonas Gutierrez moving into the midfield three to replace the injured Danny Guthrie.

Enjoy the game. Don’t too much chocolate. Come and have a chat.

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

    To bad I don't have the comments bookmarked but I adviced at least 5 lads to play Williamson/ Simpson instead of Caulker cause I had a hunch about New CS. It isn't still game over, but I hope they listened.

    And yeah Cisse is a beast

      People advised me during the week to get Ade over Cisse, thankfully I went Cisse, you just can't ignore his form and poaching abilities.

    That Pogrebnyak out Papiss in does not look so bad now. 🙂
    I learnt my lesson the hard way this year. FPL is all about attackers for the Bonus points. The days of defenders getting a Bonus under this new system is a rarity. Unless it is a very tight game or the defender gets a goal/assist.
    I was worried about getting one DGW player in for another.

    Cisse is doing his best to unthread my latest transfer schedule after hours of tinkering.

    Mull, if Jelavic does nothing v Norwich, I'm going to need persuading not to do the swap.

    Dempsey to Walcott can wait a week.
