No Gylfi pleasure for me, Dempsey heartbreak more like. A trip to the Cottage inspired the decision to throw my FPL armband the way of Captain America, only for Sigurdsson to steal the thunder and banish me to a miserable tube ride home.

Mark lends an (un)sympathetic ear in this latest episode, as we roll through the regulars whilst discussing how we’re all heading back to the drawing board for our third striker solution.

    Finally the FPL Open draw can be made.

    Qualifying = at least 1539 points for GW2+.

    I'll be here for 5-10 minutes if you want your match up.

    Simply find your rank & minus it from 257 to find your opponent.

        I agree most teams will have 6 core players pretty much. All depends on the rest of your squad plus captains choices.

    Thoughts on my team for this week? (No hit)

    Vorm
    Skrtel BAE Evans
    Bale Valencia Siggy McClean
    Ba RVP Rooney

    Dempsey, Santon, Kelly

    I'm not sure what to do with RVP/Rooney situation. I always seem to miss out on RVP's bigger points hauls but I know my mini league rival (50 points ahead) will captain RVP whereas he doesn't even own Rooney, time to go for broke and go Rooney (c). Still a good option but i'll be watching Arsenal/Villa from behind the couch..

    What is the better team guys? 🙂

    A)
    Vorm (Bogdan)
    Skrtel | Jevans | BAE (Caulker, Kilgallon)
    Walcott | Dempsey | Valencia | Bale (Sigurdsson)
    Rooney | Suarez | RVP

    Or

    B)
    Vorm (Bogdan)
    Skrtel | Sagna | Caulker (Simpson, Kilgallon)
    Young | Dempsey | Valencia | Bale (Sigurdsson)
    Rooney | RVP | Suarez(Or other forward for 9.5 or less)

    I know most of you will think im mad not to have Jevans in (B). But the reason is so that I can have Young and Valencia and if one doesnt play then Sigurdsson will take his place and if they both play then great! Because Man Utd are in great form ATM and so are Valencia and Young kind of! And i see that the way Pogba has come into the Man Utd subs it reduces the risk of another Man Utd midfeiler coming on for a cameo.

    So which one guys? 🙂
