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.

🙄
Open Controls
You missed the rise? Could of done it if that is already a decided move.
Open Controls
I'd do something about Marv first.
You don't need to do Theo to Caz just because everybody's doing it.Open Controls
that or siss/marv > maloney. i rate him highly this week.

Nice. Just logged in to see Members Cup opponent has also taken a hit this week.
Phew. Good to be back on even ground.Open Controls
Michu -> Caz done. 1FT left to carry over into next week. Seems like a solid move?
Open Controlswhy didn't you just sell Walcott?
Open ControlsFor reasons we have already discussed. Why sell Walcott when I can just have Sissoko off the bench?
Open ControlsI reckon Michu has a better chance of scoring than Sissoko this week is all
Open Controls
Agreed, there is no way I'm selling him when he has a DGW in 2 weeks which he will most definitely be fit for...
Sissok could easily score in this game... but even 2pts will do...Open ControlsDon't know if you've heard but Walcott could be out for 2/3 weeks, no guarantees he's back for DGW
Open Controls
Open Controls
I feel like i'm liking my doubles comp team more than my personal team. rooney instead of RVP, santi instead of wally, jenks instead of mert, DDG instead of bego, townsend instead of punchy..:(
Open ControlsYep, thats the benefit of buying a new squad from scratch
Open Controls
I will wait for Walcotts injury news and then decide
Sisoko could have a good game against City. Hes a tough midfielder and will do well thats what i feel
Walcott to Caz is what I am looking for. Is Santi expected to rise by Fri. If not I will do it on Fri.
Will wait till which amongst CHE/ UTD have a double :
If Utd have a DGW will play Rooney and Kagawa/ Smalling/ Raf ( already have Roon)
If Chelsea have a DGW will play Hazard, Mata, Azpi ( already have Mata), Lamps could also be a nice bet
I want a midfield and FWD line in case CHE have a double :
Fell, Mata, Haz, Santi, Walcott/ Lamps
Berba, Suarez
Any thoughts on the sameOpen Controls
UnReal or TW, can one of you guys give TM245 my picks for his draft if he comes on after I'm gone?
Only if it doesn't clash with your picks though... I'll change mine if they do...Open ControlsWhat are yours? Yeah, no problem mate 🙂
Open Controlsberba clashes with mine. (jenk maloney lamps berba)
i can pass on the rest though.Open Controls- Open Controls
i started off ahead of veteran but after 50 rounds I have 14 wins, 15 ties and 21 losses
Open ControlsThis thing is actually quite interesting, the computer learns your patterns as you go along so it catches you out if you keep doing the same thing...pretty clever
Open Controls
My choices are:
Mertesacker, Mirallas, Jarvis, SturridgeOpen Controls
Quick poll. C and VC this week?
Suarez C
Berbatov VCOpen ControlsActually, I would rather go with Berbatov (C) and then Sauron (VC).
Snake, do you reckon I should go Puncheon to Maloney or Schneiderlin? I still have a WC available.Open ControlsSauron is more deadly.
Open ControlsCheers, but I'll be waiting after the pressers. Did Mata to Cazorla instead of Walcott as I didn't have enough cash to do the move. Now, I'm left with Walcott and Puncheon who don't seem like getting any starts this weekend.
Open ControlsWait you had 2FTs? Why not just get Caz in for Walcott and downgrade somewhere then?
Open Controls
Lampard/Cazorla C
RVP VCOpen ControlsUndecided. Suarez, Berba, Santi
Open ControlsBaines captain. Could work out well when there are not much contenders.
If Walcott is def out then Caz/ Mata CaptainOpen Controls

Open Controls
Who to captain from these options
RVP(sun) - Will he even start? I'm guessing Kagawa, Rooney, Hernandez also played in the international break though. Welbeck will start but could also start on the wing
Bale(swa) - Had a wee injury scare but should be set to start in this crucial encounter, tends to do well in away games on the counter.
Cazorla(RDG) - He is the sort of player that goes 2,2,3, 15, 5, 2, 3, 21. It could go brilliantly or could be an epic fail. The only home encounter from these options, the absence of Walcott could also work in his favor like at the start of the season.Open ControlsAnyone brave enough to oblige by the MNF rule and go Berba(C)?
Very tempting..Open Controlswho to start from clyne davies and cueller? and who should be first on the bench?
Open ControlsI'd go with Davies. I have a feeling the offensive form Spurs could be set for a dip. Serious striker issues they're having.
Open Controls
Who do you guys hope wins the FA Cup replay?
Open ControlsUtd.
Open ControlsInteresting...
Open Controls
Chelsea.
Open ControlsA sensible man, finally 🙂
Open Controls
Is anyone else here feeling a slight drop in enthusiasm for FF? The international break and the long season is starting to take its toll on me. Anyone else feeling a little FF fatigue?
Open Controls
meee, I'm looking forward to next season
Open ControlsWhat happened this season? Your history indicates you finished with some great overall ranks..
Open Controls
Yep, almost completely lost interest over the break. Once the schedule becomes clearer and the games occur regularly I'll probably feel like it again, though. This part of the season always seems to be hard going with the FA Cup, internationals, bad weather and whatnot.
Open Controls
I have 7 dream team players in my team 😯
Can anyone beat that?Open Controls
Walcott->Santi will give me 7.
Open ControlsDone that already. Humbly welcomed Santi and Berba into my team this afternoon.
Open ControlsNice.
Think I'm going to hedge my bets and keep Mata/Rvp/Walcott until fa cup replay and more injury news.Open ControlsDecided to keep Mata myself. Got rid of Walcott though, the guy is made of glass, out for 2-3 weeks with a groin tear doesn't sound any good whatsoever.
Open Controls
Busy chasing points then... 😉
Open Controls
Very tight in Eng Champship. Only 9 pts between 2nd team and 6th team.
Who you guys hoping to get promoted? Shirley Cardiff will make it this year?Open Controls
If they do, I see them signing Kolarov over the summer.
Open Controlsand I will gladly have him in my team for 4.5 and nailed on 🙂

No you the boss! (this week)Open Controlsgiven I may not be able to change my team at all for gw 32 (meaning same xi as this week) who would you start this week between clyne and davies?
Open Controlsthanks mate. would your answer be different if it was for just this week?
Open Controls
Clyne. Both shouldn't deserve to start really, but at least Southampton have decent form against stronger opponents.
Open Controlsso you prefer clyne (CHE, rdg) over davies (TOT, nor)?
cheers!Open Controls
Team for the coming gw-
Ddg
Clichy, Fabio, Dawson
Bale, Mata, Walcott, Maloney
Rvp, Sturridge, Benteke
Subs: Bunn, Sissoko, Davies, Harte
Bank: 4.2m
Can't decide what transfer to make.
Dawson, Walcott doubtful
Harte > Baines maybeOpen Controls
I really put my head down to this fpl business.
Open ControlsDid you type that with your face?
Open ControlsI am just toooooo lazy to read through all the articles i have missed. Can you summarize the last 6 days of conversations/strategies/articles/news or whatever you think is relevant?
I can understand if you don't particularly feel like.Open Controls– Walcott lost his head (Walcott –> Santi bandwagon)
– Berbalove has returned.
That's about it really.Open ControlsI was hoping Berbalove wouldn't. Only player i was set on before i was leaving.
No clue who to lose though, no clue when to play my wildcard as well. I am hoping this is an elongated conversation that gets me back on track.
Roo Robin Studge
Who would you lose for Berbatov? I'll probably captain him as well.
Is Walcott definitely out?Open ControlsApparently out for 2-3 weeks, but not confirmed by Wenger – he's usually pretty open about injuries.
Leave it this week, and if United don't have a DGW ditch one of them...Open ControlsThing is Berbasense is tingling. Have wanted him back for a while now.
TW, i'd still rather lose Roo vs. RVP. I sense form incoming.Open Controls
Robin and Yes.
Open ControlsThanks Flynny, long time. How are things at your end?
Open Controls
walcott hurt so bringing in caz for him. cept many are doing michu to caz. or afro to caz.
berbatov is back in style again
a couple rooney vs rvp discussions from time to time
people pondering the united xi this weekend
discussions about the replay and who we want to win from a fantasy standpoint
windies are terrible and should give up 😉Open ControlsThanks for the round up TW. Much appreciated. Billy as well.
Open Controls
Davies.

Good Day Gents!
RVP or Rooney for this game week?
I am planning to leave both and go with RVP > Berba & Walcott > Caz .. what do you think?Open ControlsYou have both too?
I'll probably be able to give an answer tomorrow night. Intend on digging in a little now.Open Controlsno.. I am planning RVP > Rooney to free some funds.. now with 2 games in 3 days, worried about their game time.. and with Wally injured, looks a low scoring week for me.. what would you do?
Open Controls
guys going to bring in someone from the Arsenal defence for the foreseebale future. who would be the wisest move? Is either of the keepers nailed on as I have Bunn at the moment
Open ControlsMerte
Open Controlscheers and of interest is Fabianski now nr. 1?
Open ControlsThis is about it for guarantees I think. Though I'd still rather have a punt on Monreal.
Open Controls
fab and jenk are both good cheap options but neither is necessarily nailed on. for now they seem to be but it's hard telling
Open ControlsI think people want this to be true because they're cheap. We know in our head most fifth/sixth rank defenders get rotated.
Open Controls
Mert

@Berbilly
You're right. I think I'd prefer a United DGW.
This is what I can roll out if they get the DGW: http://i.imgur.com/iBAWyOm.pngOpen ControlsDefence?

Might have to lose Mata instead of Sissoko for Fellaini...

How serious is Walcott's knock?
Open Controls2-3 weeks according to physio room.
Open ControlsWhat a waste of a DGW player if it's true.
Open Controls
I think we will have a clear indication in the presser, Moriarty.
Open ControlsDemi posted a tweet from a reliable source - Wally's looking at about 2 to 3 weeks out.
Open Controlsnot good
Open ControlsGeoffArsenal is far from reliable; and I've been following him for a year.
He wasn't the first guy that broke the Cazorla and Monreal signings. It was Guillem Ballague.
Geoff was the one who broke the news that Arsenal made a 30M bid during the winter transfer window. Got Gooners all up in a craze.
We all know how that turned out.Open Controls
Folks, there is a possibility that I might only have three midfielders available for the weekend - with Puncheon possibly benched yet again and Walcott looking set to recover from his injury. This leaves me with only Cazorla, Sissoko and Bale. As I still have a WC in hand and possibly looking to WC at GW32 or 33 and also used the FT on Cazorla already, what do you think of a hit to do Puncheon to Schneiderlin?
Open ControlsPunch to Maloney, future DGW for Wigan.
Sweet fixture this week as well.Open ControlsMignolet
Clyne - Evans - Demel
Walcott - Cazorla - Sissoko - Bale
Sturridge - RvP - Rooney
Cerny - Puncheon - Pearce - Martin R.
Assuming a MUN DGW and if I do Maloney, I don't think I should be using my WC at GW33 if this is the case. It will go waste. I might as well use it on GW36?Open Controls
I don't like that hit if i'm honest. Not enough upside for a hit imo.
Open Controlsnot sure about a hit. can't you just roll out 433?
