      If you have him, play him. If you don't have him, don't get him in

      That would be my advice. But don't do everything I say! 😛

          If you fix keeper and get RVP this week for free, then do as above you can play Keeper, Kolarov, Coleman, Kelly, New Def, Nani, Adam, New Mid, Tevez & Odem.

    Cheers to Garg/Cocoon/Bantam/Granville/Dimitar for their comments this morning, just had time to check back, I am feeling okay with VDV and Vidic gone, Adam I am seriously considering shipping too because of WC.

    Baines to Coleman looks like the right thing to do, BUT with Cahill back Baines is even more likely to assist, and I am not sure if I am convinced Coleman will be as consistant, anyone else sticking with Baines on WC?

    If money is no object would anyone actually go for Barton over Nolan? I am going for Nolan currently since they don't have any strikers
