The Saturday Surgery

The Fantasy manager’s schedule rolls on. Just 48-hours after saying goodbye to one Gameweek, we’re on the cusp of another full programme of Premier League matches. With one eye on the double fixtures looming in Gameweek 26, we make our final preparations ahead of the deadline in just over an hour. Our Matchday Surgery chatroom is open for its Saturday morning shift, available to soak up your views and queries as the clock ticks down.

The Dugout Discussion will be underway at around 12.30 in preparation for the early kick-off at Loftus Road, while this morning’s pre-amble is having the studs checked on the touchline.

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

    Am I mad to be considering Fellaini and Defoe over Bale and Lambert?

    With Puncheon and Clyne already I didn't want to have 3x Southampton coverage as I could imagine being forced to bench all 3 vs a decent opponent and really limiting my options...
