The Saturday Surgery

The lure of the double Gameweek is strong. To spend or not to spend? Do we toss our armbands in the unlikely direction of Sunderland or Reading? There are many questions to throw around this morning and, with just over an hour to go, our Saturday Surgery Chatroom is now open to offer real-time assistance to those firmly in a quandary.

The day’s Dugout Discussion follows around 2.30 today, with a nightmarish double Gameweek viewpoint to come in the Pre-match Preamble very shortly.

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

    How come people think Michu is a better captain choice than Fellaini? Norwich have only conceded 4 goals in their past 8 games, while the Spurs defence isn't the greatest.

        Michu has scored 10 goals. He's consistent and comparatively cheap. I think your over simplifying his worth.

            Fellaini has scored 8 and has more assists. I was referring to his popularity as a (c) option.

          Fellaini's last 5 games he's accumulated 51 points. Michu has 38 from his last 5. So form goes to Fellaini and he has a 'Fro!
