The Saturday Surgery

With the majority of Fantasy managers enjoying at least some returns from the double Gameweek, we approach the new deadline with some optimism, particularly with several key heavy-hitters facing potentially profitable match-ups this weekend. Wayne Rooney’s form has been causing waves all week and they’ll be some still contemplating drafting in the United man ahead of the Sunderland clash at Old Trafford. Our Saturday Surgery Chatroom is now open to offer a real-time sound board on this and any other dilemma you could be facing over the next hour.

The day’s Dugout Discussion follows at 12.30 today ahead of the Newcastle vs Man City clash; a wildcard-themed preamble follows shortly.

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

    Federici or Mignolet?
    Demel or Sessegnon?

    (C) RVP or Defoe?

    Thanks! 🙂

      Exactly the same as mine except Mignolet.
      What do we think the score will be in each? Skeptical on Fed, specially being a Gooner..

              They might have run out of bibs because Suarez needs them when eating in the canteen.

          Have a problem, I need to play one from Sterling (may not start), AJ (injury doubt and at Old Trafford) or Shorey at home to Arsenal. I'm actually leaning towards Shorey for the set pieces. Thoughts?

            Anyone else see this nonsense where blackwell-smith blamed Kroenke for what's wrong with Arsenal? Seems convenient since he's only become the majority shareholder last year and Arsenal have been in decline well before that.

            so what if Sterling gets benched he'll probly come on and get a assist or goal like he always does when people have him benched

              Here's my defence:
              Enrique? Garrido Ridgewell? Shorey Cuellar

              Should i use my FT to get someone else in or save it?
              Would you suggest a name?

              I considering selling baines for glen johnson? It is a free transfer and would plan to swap back after christmas. Does it sound like a good move or should i just stick with baines and have 2 ft next week?

                Stick with Baines.
                You're chasing points IMO.

                  Thanks. You're probably right although liverpool are bound to get a cs this week whereas everton probably wont.

                    Baines hasn't done much for weeks... not a bad move imho

                I'm looking at the same move, but am keeping Baines this week.

              No idea on the reliability of this source but I'm seeing....

              Liverpool Provisional squad: Reina, Wisdom, Agger, Skrtel, Johnson, Lucas, Gerrard, Allen, Sterling, Suarez, Shelvey

              That would mean no Enrique; Johnson shifting to left back, but Sterling starting.
