Batten down the hatches, Granville’s wildcard is active. Having suffered an abominable Gameweek 2 mauling, the Mancunian has shuffled, tail between legs, back to the drawing board. The excuses and justification are spread thickly throughout and Granville even calms his jerky knee long enough to strike back at my decision to transfer in Eden Hazard: the cheek of the man.

The usual regulars are, of course, scattered about this nonsense, including a record breaking “All Aboard” the weekend preview and the recent failings of the ScoutCast XI.

    Keen to gather a few more opinions... how essential is Hazard? Basically if I want him for gw4, then next week boils down to:

    A) Bale -> Hazard
    or
    B) Komp +Pienaar -> Hazard + cheap def (4 pt hit)

    I really want to keep Bale (great fixtures), so is the hit worth it? Can I live without Hazard basically?

        Yeah, just thinking Swansea may have had it easy defensively wheras Baines offers alot of threat. Bale on a goal drought wheras Yaya looks likely to get a steady stream of points. My worry is that Bale could explode, Yaya unlikely to get a huge haul

          It could be now, I think Dairy Crest were the first sponsors of the League Cup though and it was called that when I first saw it.

    Thinking of Ivanovic ➡ Baines for an 8 point hit (already done a 4: Barnett and Guthrie ➡ Kagawa and Rangel). Which option do you think will score the most points in the next few weeks (keeping in mind the chance of Ivanovic rotation):

    A) Clyne (MUN), Ivan (qpr, STO) +4

    or

    B) Baines (wba, NEW, swa)

    I’m thinking it might be smarter just to stick as I’ve already taken two hits this season, but thoughts appreciated
