We are just over an hour away from another Fantasy deadline, swiftly followed by our first delicious slice of weekend action as Arsenal take on Chelsea in the early kick-off. We’ll cover that with our Dugout Discussion later but, for now, we’ve opened up the Surgery Chatroom to capture your views and opinions as you carry out last minute tinkering.

Don’t forget, to soak up all our key coverage from the site over the past seven days you can direct your eyes at Andy’s Catch-Up article published earlier this morning.

The Pre-Match Preamble is on its way shortly…

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

            Thanks - I think I'm going to go with Fellani. Southampton are terrible defensively but score a lot, so seems silly to get a defender in...

        problem with captain poll is people vote for who they will captain so high ownership dominates.

          I know, Pod takes up one of those valuable striker spots but if you have to have one, I'd go with Podolski.

          Gervinho more likely to lose minutes to Giroud/Walcott/Chamberlain than Podolski - over the course of the season - IMO. On that other hand he's great value and doesnt take up a precious fwd spot.

      I wouldn't have either personally. Gerv is a rotation risk and Podolski is a reverse OOP.

            Glad you suggested Suarez as I was also stupidly tempted. The only thing putting me off is Suarez, the woodwork and the fact that Norwich have been pretty tight (only 1 goal conceded per game apart from the first week). I am still tempted though because he is a good differential, scored a hat trick last year and is coming into form. So, yes Suarez, no Ba.

            Suarez or RVP?
