Mainly utilised for his ball-winning abilities and dynamic displays in the heart of the Southampton midfield, Morgan Schneiderlin has been afforded a new lease of life since the January departure of Nigel Adkins. While his successful tackles and interceptions have been literally second to none in England’s top-flight this term, the Frenchman has recently added an extra element to his game and with three goals in his last six appearances, we cast an eye over his attacking performances under new Saints boss Mauricio Pochettino to decide whether his 18,000 new Fantasy Premier League (FPL) owners have themselves a bargain.

Just made the switch! Michu --> Cazorla. Hope he brings home the bacon 🙂
OT: Is Anyone here playing Bioshock: Infinite? Everyone keeps going on about how fantastic the story is, but i'm halfway through and to be honest, i have absolutely no clue whats going on and finding it all a bit frustrating.Open Controls -
A. Michu to caz now (before price rise)
b. wait to see if Walcott is injured and get him out for caz?
C. Save transferOpen Controls-
just do A now... keep Walcott for the DGW
Open Controls -
If you are thinking Michu to Caz anyway, I would do Walcott to Caz this week (we are pretty sure Wally doesn't playe this GW) and then, if it becomes clear that Wally will be back for GW33, do Michu to Wally.
Open Controls-
Fair point but would just mean an extra transfer required?
Open Controls-
It's a callculated risk. If Demi's source is right (2-3 weeks out for Wally) then you've wasted nothing and made a positive move. If Wally comes back for, say, GW32, you've lost a transfer in exchange of having both Caz and Michu for GW31.

Just put in my application for a Semi-final ticket. Yes, I have to apply for a ticket before i even know if we're there, something about turnaround times. There supposedly gonna start processing the applications straight after the final whistle on Monday

That Arsenal Geoff twitter guy is the one that broke the news of Cazorla signing a few days before any newspaper did, right?
If so, he's pretty reliable.Open Controls-
What news is this Arsenal Geoff twitter guy breaking at the moment then?
Open Controls -
As reliable as you get. Broke the Cazorla and Monreal transfers before anyone.
News today, he's said Wilshere not fit and Walcott 2-3 weeks away.Open Controls

For one gameweek -would you have Michu 90 mins home to spurs or Mata away?

Mark and team!
We're desperately trying to keep oui Morgan under the radar and you make articles about him, as well as blasted OptaJoe! Please note; he is rubbish and not worth buying in real football terms. (Insert windy smile here)Open Controls -
I just got a sudden urge to buy Giroud
😯Open Controls -
Being playing as Arsenal on Fifa and Giroud keeps on scoring 😯 Must now go play FM to see if this is a sign or just a bug
Open Controls-
Played FM for the first time today.
Can't get used to it, too much stuff going on on the interface.Open Controls-
Yeah I reckon you really have to give it time to get used to everything. I believe there are settings that allow your assistant take control of a lot of the general stuff.
I go through phases of being addicted to it and then getting frustrated after losing 3-0 to Wigan and don't play again for weeksOpen Controls

ok, here's one for you...
I took on a kid aged 2, he's now getting on 14 (we were 19 at time).
Now is GW15, married, and pushing the biological clock..
do we:
1: save the FT and live free
2: double up on kids and hope for a monster week
:/Open Controls -
2FTs this week, one gone on Michu->Caz leaves me with this:
Bego
Zabaleta/Turner/Enrique
Cazorla/Bale/Walcott/Sissoko
RVP/Suarez/Sturridge
Bench: Steer/Davies/Puncheon/Harte
Should I save the other FT? Will WC soon but not sure when. Debating Sturridge->Berba.Open Controls-
We have a really similar team.
I've got Sagna, Shaw & Bunn rather than Harte, Turner, Steer.
Got 2 FTs and have done the exact same transfer. The Berbs one tempts me, but I think Sturridge has the better next two fixtures imo. Plus if Suarez gets a suspension, I'd just put Berbs in for him instead.
With Walcott and RVP small doubts, I'm going to replace Punch I think. Probably with Maloney.Open Controls

a Palantir is a dangerous tool Geoff
Open Controls-
nah it's safe enough. I reckon Demi has the others

My sources say Theo is fit!

😉Open Controls -
AK - is having all 3 of Lamps, Hazard and Mata madness
if Theo is out, I'm considering taking out Azpi and having themOpen Controls-
Is it really worth thinking about until we know whether Utd or Chelsea have a DGW?
Open Controls-
fair point
Just backing United is all 😉Open Controls-
🙂
Open Controls-
If we lose I have whole seperate wc team saved.
yes I have 2 different wc teamsOpen Controls-
You're committed, I'll give you that 🙂
I really think you should WC in GW33 rather than GW32. You lose 1 free transfer for 36, but plenty of things can change in 1 GW. Say you get RVP (or Rooney) and they get injured - you'll have to sell them (presumably for someone cheaper), and won't be able to reinvest the extra money.
Or you could get more than 1 injury, someone's wife has a baby, someone calls their manager a c**t...Open Controls-
I'll take it on board, and see where I'm at post-replay

Definite madness. All wil get rotated and the DGW isnt even that great

Yes. Madness.

Just went to check how much Gervinho is.
Think I should probably go to bed.Open Controls-
The lineups for Reading and WBA will be key...if Oxlade is in the team 100% I'm considering him for the DGW...same goes for Gervinho (lol)
Open Controls-
Why?/ Theo will be back
Open Controls-
Keep up at the back.
(Rumours TW will be out 2-3 weeks)Open Controls -
Well, either way I'd love to have Oxlade, he's pretty great when he plays
Open Controls
-
-
Unless Theo is definitively ruled out for both games of the DGW, I don't see the point in getting Ox (or Gervinho) for the double.
Open Controls

Who to play??
Sissoko @ City
Snodgrass @ WiganOpen Controls-
surely you know the answer to this 😉
Open Controls -
Snodders
Picks up his points away, Wigan concede at home
I have both am am playing Snodders
so, on second thoughts, you should probably play SissOpen Controls -
Snod,
howa about Sisco or Lambert (home to che)Open Controls-
Im playing Lambert definitely

Cazorla will rack up the points this weekend.
It's a shame that I won't have Gunner coverage this weekend.
1-0 will do.Open Controls-
So 11 points then?

Bit of a repost from a few hours back, but would appreciate some views...
A or B . . .
a). Theo > Santi
B) Sess > Maloney
B means keeping theo in hope he returns for the dgw, also then get Santi GW33 increasing number of dgw players by 1.
Obviously that leaves me with no Arsenal cover this week and mf of - Michu, Sissoko, Maloney, Bale (theo)Open Controls-
Id hold that decision til friday if you can afford to. If Theo is actually out up to 3 weeks than it is time to cut him
Open Controls-
Need to do tonight. No Internet access from tomorrow lunchtime - damn west wales caravan 👿 !!!

Sess to Santi, and something else in the rear or front division.
Open Controls -
tough one that. But a creates it's own problem in terms of having to waste a transfer to get Theo back.
We are trying to get you to the number 1 spot here, things must be consideredOpen Controls -
So you're keeping Ba now then?! 🙂
I've done Michu to Santi as I had the spare cash and hoping Walcott will be back for the double... can you do Sess to Santi and something else?Open Controls-
-
Michu, Sissoko, Cazorla, Bale (Walcott)
RVP, Berbatov, Suarez
Looks good on paper, but what's your view on Ba over the next few weeks?Open Controls-
Yep. But can't afford that 😆 (aka theo bench and Santi)
Ba - Too risky to trust. Obviously if I knew he would start v Sot I would keep. But no go, and time is right for Berbatov ahead of the dgw and QPR (h)Open Controls

Double team!
We could just do Theo to Cazorla and leave it at that.
But I am less confident in an arsenal mauling than I was. So;
Fellaini ➡ Coutinho
Lukaku ➡ Berbatov
4pt hitOpen Controls-
Not Coutinho. Sorry. Love the other.
Open Controls-
Noble ➡ Beasujour?
I was considering Collison for that spot, but Wigan have a nice game this weekOpen Controls

To anybody with Walcott and Fellaini, what are you doing to get out 4 mids?

Keeping both and playing 4 3 3. Don't want to get rid of either one since i want both for DGW and don't like to waste transfer on it when you don't know wether United or Chelsea will have a DGW.

If I have to sell Walcott there are not heaps of potential replacements
Already have santi ..,and the standard mata , bale , Siss
Can't think who to get , the only ones I'd like are the Chelsea 2 , lamps and hazard ...but we don't know if they have a doubleOpen Controls-
That's a great midfield, just leave it or bring hazard
