Matchday Surgery

The Midweek Surgery

A Gameweek under lights beckons – a rare chance to wipe the memory of paltry returns with the immediate hit of more Premier League action and potential points hauls. Maybe not tonight though.

A full midweek programme starts with two matches this evening, as Sunderland play host to basement club QPR and Villa face Reading – a patchwork selection of Fantasy assets are on show, with interest again focused on how Martin O’Neill’s side shape up as they prepare for Gameweek 16’s two fixtures.

Our Matchday Surgery Chatroom is open to catch the final hour and a bit of deliberation as the 7.30 deadline crawls near.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Mr Baines.

    I'll be sad to see you go. But then your loss for Cuellar will more than be made up for by Walters and Ba to Sess and Suarez (no yellow v Spurs, pending).

    Am I being sensible guys?

        Sess enough coverage for the DGW? Guess it means I'm not stuck with too many Sunderland players in a few weeks.
