A successful 2011/12 promotion campaign saw Southampton rack up the goals as Nigel Adkins’ side finished second in the npower Championship. Having found the net 85 times last term, the Saints immediately placed Fantasy managers on alert and on the lookout for new blood for their squads. The most obvious and popular pick was Rickie Lambert who notched 25 goals in the Championship, while Adam Lallana and new arrivals Jay Rodriguez and later Gaston Ramirez have also been touted as potential Fantasy options. Even Morgan Schneiderlin – who had just two goals in almost 150 appearances coming into the season – has received some attention after his goal against Man United in Gameweek three.
Looks good to me, Aguero seems pretty much guaranteed to play this week and Utd have a great record v Spurs.
I suppose Aguero didn't score well away last season, but not sure how much to read into that.Open ControlsSounds fine to me.
Open ControlsI'm thinking of ditching Friedel to raise funds this w/e as well.
McCarthy will mean you'll have to address keeper situation again though - which you seem happy with.
Think Aguero is a great signing.Open Controls
What are we thinking re; Tevez, is he likely to start?
Open ControlsI find it wierd that everyone says Aguero is the key man and then says tevez will be rotated all the time, if that is the case then won't Aguero be the one more likely rested throughout the season for the Champions League matches as I thought that would just slightly be the priority. I think these last few gameweeks have muddied the water beacuse of Agueros injured but long term Id have thought tevez will play more premier league than aguero.

Selling Tevez is a mistake IMO

Morning folks
I have 1 FT and £3.3 in the bank.
What to do?
Was thinking of replacing Tevez? If so, to Suarez or Lambert?
Foster, Begovic
Baines, Davies, Demel, Cuellar, Gorkks
Fellaini, Cazorla, Michu, Yaya Toure, Guthrie
Tevez, RVP, Fletcher
Thank youOpen ControlsCrouch or Johnson or
Jelavic and Enqirue?
I want a piece of the liverpool defence
Was all set to do crouch but Berba out changes things as the two gameweeks after this one Crouch has (lliv, mun) so wouldn't be able to bench him if Berb is outOpen ControlsWhich one are more good to have as Everton cover? Jelly or Pienaar?
Open ControlsFederici ----> Ruddy/Davis/Begovic. Which one to pick if had to?
Open ControlsBeg
Open Controls
Sterling or Puncheon?
RVP Ba and Fletcher , or RVP Fletcher Lambert?Open ControlsDidn't Mark and Granville both get Berbatov this week?
Rookies 😎Open ControlsCome on Moyes, speak up!
Open ControlsIn light of this berba news, is tevez to jelly for a hit worth it? Would then have to field both puncheon and demel If I don't transfer.
Open ControlsBerba - 41,500 transfers in this GW - 4th highest transfered in striker. Now owned by 10.3% of people.
Slight spanner in the works for some people!Open Controlsannoying though it, I'm glad i already have him.
Open Controlsas a Man Utd fan, I've never considered him in my team.
Open ControlsThat makes no sense whatsoever - he was a good servant to the club, never whinged about being benched, scored plenty of goals.
Do you have Tevez?Open ControlsHmm i think you misunderstood. I just dont rate him.
Scored plenty of goals? You need to look at his stats again, even at his peak he couldnt score over 15 goals a season (apart from 2010-11).Open ControlsAh right, I did misunderstand. His goals to games ratio is pretty damn good. I'm not upset that we sold him, didn't really fit into the quick passing, fast counter-attacking style, but he was decent.

+1

i switched tevez and maloney for fellaini and berbatov 3 days ago 🙁 now berba ruled out you guys think i shod take a 4 pt hit and get a diff striker in or play pogs alongside rvp
Open ControlsWho are the non Europeans/Americans supporting then?
Open Controlsmore people hate the yanks in this world
Open ControlsEurope I'd imagine? Nobody outside the USA like the USA!
Open Controls
What would you do with this team?:
Federici Foster
Rangel Ivanovic Demel Hangeland Clyne
Yaya Toure Bale Michu Ben Arfa Pienaar
Tevez Berbatov Torres
1.3m in bank. 1 FT.Open Controlsthat is a g-d awful strikeforce
Berba = injured
Tevez = rotation risk
Torres = crap
Can you afford Tevez to Aguero?Open ControlsMidfield looks congested.
Open Controls
Ok done my transfer, [C] Jelly or Aguero this week? Jelly is against leaky South but I'm afraid he won't get full time.
Open ControlsI'd go with Jelly.
Open Controls
So any news on how long Berba is likely to be out? If it's just 1 game, I'll just bench him. Be daft to sell if it's a minor injury.
Open Controlsas far as we know it's just 1 game.
Open Controlswhere? share the link I have seen no such thing
Open Controls
This is what I need to know now.
Was going to do Tevez > Aguero today, but now have
- A Johnson, doubt
- Berbatov ,out
- Tevez, may not startOpen Controlssame 3 problems as me.
Still plan on selling Tevez thoughOpen Controls
can't decide whether to give the armband to RVP or fletcher?
Never thought I'd be saying that!Open Controlssame, its a strange on but im leaning towards Fletcher, 100th pl game to if that makes any difference lol
Open Controlsdon't think its that clear cut, fletcher is at home, bang in form, and playing wigan!
Open Controls
I'm in a similar one trying to decide between RVP fletcher and Ba/Lambert (on WC so torn between Ba and Lambert) 😉
Open ControlsTake a punt on Fletch
Open ControlsThink you might be right, wigan have conceded 2 goals on average per game.
You think RVP fletcher lambert or RVP Fletcher Ba ?Open Controls
Afternoon all.
So much for the planned Tevez to Berbatov transfer. Tevez to Jelavic(c) FTWOpen Controlsso sure jelly will start?right after injury and anichibe has hardly been playing badly??
Open ControlsJelavic group hug!
Open ControlsCan u afford that handsome kun?
Open Controlstrying having Tevez. Berba and Adam Johnson.
Still planning the same move, though still on captaining RvP.Open ControlsI'm going triple Everton plus captain for the Southampton game.

Hi guys, does this team look right?
Jaas (Green)
Baines(C) Kompany Williams (Clyne) (Hangeland)
Pienaar(VC) Haz Yaya Michu Maloney
Tevez Torres.(Berbs)
Thinking of taking out Torres. Ba or Suarez? Or any better options?
Is my bench about right, and any other players I should be looking at transferring in?Open ControlsHI, please bench 2 of them:
Rangel, Davies, Demel, Clyne.Open Controlswho do i start now that berba's injured
a. davies @ stoke
b. demel @ qpr
c. guthrie H newcastleOpen ControlsGuthrie, obviously
Open Controls
the tevez nonsense has to stop..all 4 of citys strikers are going to be rotated because of the champions league (manicini knows his job is on the line if they fail to get out of group stage again) while tevez owners might be annoyed tomorrow, aguero owners could be equally frustrated for the sunderland fixture. so shipping tevez out now doesnt make much sense, particularly if its for a hit(also tevez has been citys best player this season, its not like mancini hasnt noticed that)
Open ControlsFriedel > Howard (4 point hit)?
Rest of the team
Federici
Cole Cuellar Zab
Hazard Santi Barfa Michu
Ba Podolski Tevez
Subs: Clyne, Guthrie HangelandOpen ControlsWith Berba out, i am definitely losing Tevez. Can't afford to have 2 strikers out.
Open ControlsOn my wildcard and I'm 0.2 short of being able to do Berbatov > RVP (yes I had a lot in the bank). If only there was a good cheap midfielder who I could get who's 0.2 cheaper than Sterling......oh wait!

Thoughts on this 4pt hit
Friedel, Berbatov > Mccarthy, Aguero
I wanted Aguero next week anywa and Friedel is a problem waiting to happen, Reading fans seem to think Mccarthy is number one now so he'll do for 3 weeks until i get Begovic in
