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.

    Anyone know why Ba is getting more goals than Pappis, I thought Cisse was through the middle with Ba out wide?

    a) Two to play from Clark, Cuellar, Hughes and Nelsen?
    b) One to play from Dyer, Maloney and Lambert?

    Please bear in mind that I have Baines (at home to Southampton), Begovic (at home to Swansea) and Cuellar (at home to Wigan) which may affect my attacking / defensive returns..

      Got to be Baines - 70% chance of a clean sheet, 1 assist, 2-3 bps: 10-11 points.

      Ba, probably 1 goal, so around 6 for me.

    instead of asking who top captain, which i'm sure has been done 5 billlion times already, how about this. What are your predictions for players' scores this GW? Here's my 2 cents...

    Baines - about 8
    Fellaini - about 9
    Cazorla - about 7
    RVP - 9?
    Fletcher - 13ish
    Ba - 13ish
    Tevez - 1-5

      So you think Fletcher and Ba are both going to get 2 goals each. Wigan are not pushovers.... And Reading are also no pushovers. I think your predictions have beem slightly exaggerated.

        more confident that Fletcher will get a brace than Ba today though. as someone below said, wigan have coneded 8 in the last 3, fletcher has scored in every game and sunderland will be going all out for their first win of the season so i see them creating more chances than has been the case lately too

        tough one - wigan have conceded 8 in there last 3 games - and fletcher has scored in every game so far..

        I'd go with fletcher - but you could flip a coin

          Who you captaining this week? Dilemma of baines, fellaini, rvp or fletcher for me.

            Got the same dilemma.

            Here is my reasoning

            Southampton most heavily conceding side in prem. 15 goals conceded and 9 of those in 2 games away from home.

            Coming up against a First choice team away from home who are in very good form.

              Yeah i agree, i always like a risk take so am thinking fellani but baines might just keep a cleanie and score a pen/assist!
