I think he is the real deal. Power 6.

The sample size is small, but he is 100% worth a punt at his price. Considering his position he is more like this seasons Cisse. Last game he had amazing stats for a midfielder.

if he holds down that role in behind cisse then i think he will be great value

I am on that train!!! 🙂

He won't be as explosive as vs Chelsea. Good to be an assist machine.

Strike while the iron's hot I say, but not until next week. The Toon's fixtures from gw27 will help matters. Early signs good though.

Wait till GW27/28 then lump on like the rest of us. Incredible performance either way.

It would be immense, and I support the buggers!

So being in an Aston makes him the villain of the piece?

At least he didnt go to the Imperial College.

The number 7 striker.

Studge.

Michu or studge

Sturridge. (and he is fit)

Michu

Gerrard over Studge. Won't have Suar or Mich

Sturridge (C)

Michu (VC)

i prefer B

I think you are too. Though I want Mata in my side and may have to do Michu > Sissy and Schneiderlin > De Guzman/ AJ etc...

I still like Michu and Fellaini, I think, especially with 4 points.

However, he was a great administrator, and governed England well.

I would agree, but the whole fecking lot of them are probably guilty of the worst crimes man can commit to preserve their power. C'est la vie.

Hitler built some good roads.

Unlikely.... looking like a double at least, barring injury on wednesday.

could happen, gerrard has been like a rocket
the fear of not being able to afford them overrode my fear of waiting to confirm they arefit

Not tomorrow i reckon. Probably it will take 2 days for him to rise 0.1

I think I might follow you. 😉

Is that not the same as the other numerous posts?

Insert Granville's Law of Maximum DGW-ers in GW26 ^

Same as earlier probably

good, any hits?

Doubt it probably doesn't want to play a friendly

probably not, throwin an international sickie........ "im sorry woy" *cough cough* "i cant make it in, im ill"

Brave, but I think it could work, especially with United playing in Europe.

I'm considering it, but not yet. He's still the best striker in the league playing for the best team. Actually, not sure about the "best team" bit... probably meant the "best manager"

Brave choice, buy a bigger couch to hide behind during the united games 🙂

worst case scenario i get him back before reading would loose only 0.3 in value i'm guessing...meanwhile though he wnt be dropped he might play 20 min cameos in 2 of those games... i.e in between gw 26-gw 29

Who are you losing for Gerrard? Will you be able to have enough players for the week after if you do?

I'm dropping Silva for Gerrard -4pt after already putting in Sturr

What's this shit now, mate?

My two year old girl just shouts c'mon van persie, I wonder why??

Disgusting video on youtube with a baby singing it with the help of his dad. The future's bright for that poor kid

Howard Webb is known to be a right footed left back.

What you mean is "Is Demi around" 😉

Everyone is a rotation risk for the Norwich game. I think Fergie will try and take liberties with a weak team and then be forced to bring on the big guns to force a result.

Buttner will probably get the chance if Evra is rested. It will probably wont happen more than once or twice though unless they secure the title early

In short yes buttner prob the only one at the moment

Thanks for the replies. I am looking at him as a potential exit option for GJ in the case I can't afford Baines back.

Not immune, but near enough. Buttner might get a couple a season, but mostly domestic cup. There's a reason noone had heard of him, he's a proper understudy and not the successor. Despite Evra's perceived dip in form the last season or two he's a dressing room leader and Fergie loves him. He's also very tough physically if you look at his tally of games the last three seasons.

He might get rested for Norwich, say a 30% chance, but I'd be very surprised. Evans could at a total injury crisis formed push cover LB, but I can only think of once he's played there for United despite appearances for NI there and being pretty much two-footed. LB is certainly nothing like the RB situation -- until Fabio returns next season that is.

If you're considering splashing out on Evra, your only real threat is Buttner and it's not a risk IMHO. If Evra is worth the money or not is a totally different question...

37 mate.

Games are a week apart - I think he might play both tbh. Skrtel fallen right out of favour.

A better question may be "How many is he able to play?" I have no idea.

Crystal ball cloudy sorry

I like B. I think Suarez will score well, but Gerrard could also and I like Liverpool's fixtures from a defensive standpoint a lot.

I've benched benteke the last 2 weeks to play fletcher!
Reversing this week......

I will defo do this. Can't see a blank for him though.

Will be getting rid regardless i think. Fellaini more reliable, Swans can't buy a goal away from home. Monitoring Sissoko

tl;dr

It won't help. What you are addressing is incipient madness. 😉

It depends how well you spend the money after off loading RVP....it's only for the cool kids.

Injury prone is a myth my friend. Everyone said RVP is injury prone too. Unless you have some chronic issues there are no injury prone players.

nice facts but what i want to know is; are you a real professor?

That is ridiculous. Get Aguero/Rooney instead of RVP and you can upgrade 2-3 of your defenders or you can upgrade one of your bench fodders to a serious player.

So it basically becomes RVP versus Rooney/Aguero+Possible upgrades.

It's a fair point...I have managed with Benteke/Mirallas/Lukaku all season long from the first day...I've averaged 55 points per game but because i haven't had a regular captain to hang my hat on it's cost me dear...probably between 5-10 points per game...Lose RVP and lose points because the Capt choice is that much harder..

its not like ppl selling won't get him back...most are selling to get back 4-5 gws later...

Roon is the only Man U attacking coverage you need, freeing up funds to build a midfield of big hitters.

Good post and will be overlooked by a lot of people. Key point in the last paragraph.

Ageuro and City have a lot to prove still going forward, be interesting to see how the return of Yaya effects things.

For those keeping RVP, I think the key thing is to not blindly Captain him without seriously weighing up the other options and factoring in form and fixtures. Just because he's your most expensive player, doesn't make him your biggest scorer each week, in fact if anything it probably means he won't be... For reference: see blindingly obvious decision to captain Fellaini against Villa, ignored in favour of RVP away. Guilty as charged.

Was just back from injury.

He will play. He will be rested from the international.

new link too?

Me... L'pool fan though.

Work it

I think it might be a goer.

Good punt imho
