Robin Van Persie has handed Fantasy Managers another potential injury scare after being substituted with a suspected knock for Holland in their Euro 2012 qualifier with Hungary.

The Arsenal striker was replaced by Ruud van Nistelrooy at half-time after appearing to suffer a problem late on in the first-half having given Holland the lead in their 5-3 win.

Details of the situation remain sketchy – some reports suggest that Van Persie may have suffered another blow to his knee, others state that the knock is an ankle problem. It’s entirely possible that Van Persie was simply withdrawn as a precaution. We can only await further news from the Dutch or Arsenal camps.

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

    How many DGW players we looking at for 33 and 34 then?

    I'm looking at:

    33: Cech Luiz Lampard Walcott RVP (Foster)

    34: Baird + a defender + a midfielder

    Do we think that sufficient?

    Im not at all tempted by Bolton, due to fixtures and not much to play for.

        Wowsers, u can't expect much from the Brum guys in 33 surely?

        Trebling up on Stoke in 34? Could be crazy, could be mental. I'd be surprised to see a cleanie in either of their games.

          the trebling up of stoke n brum defenders has worked well so far since i did it, the double gwks r just a bonus

            Fair enough, just giving my thoughts.

              trebling up on defences is the best way to do it imo then have one expensive defender that plays every week

              most say its risky but if the rotations good i really dont see how it is and until it starts to go wrong ill stick with it

                Never really thought about doing that before, I suppose it's better than trying to find 5 different defenders and 2 different goalies with good fixtures. Hmmm...

                I agree. Doubling/trebling up is not as bad as people suggest, especially if there are double game weeks.

          I think Foster and Johnson are great value, though I don't think it is worth taking hits to get any birmingham player at the moment.

    Is Bobby Z fit and raring to go for this GW? Someone posted something a few days ago saying he's not ready but Mark came on said he hadn't heard anything of this, and I've not seen anything concrete about it. Anyone?

      just scrolled around the Fulham website, not a word on Zamora, probably a good sign?

    one option i have with 2 freebies is

    31 bent to bendtner/chamakh (bendtner if fit)

    32 bendtner/chamakh to gyan
    coleman to luiz

    waste of a transfer or worth it having an arsenal striker this week?

      wouldnt know who to go for if i had to pick between Bendtner/Chamakh. Probably Chamakh.
      Not sure it'd be worth a 1 week punt (any other ars coverage?) -Fabs?

        getting fabs in would mean no luiz next week, unless i got rid of both rooney and nani - which i am seriously considering

            yeh i know and that worries me but i cant see any other way of arsenal coverage

            bent/gutierrez to gyan/walcott is an option but leaves me with no way of getting luiz in next week

      I might be tempted to go for the Fabs as captain option, then swap him for Lampard the week after with bent to gyan and make Lampard captain for the next 3 weeks. Bring Luiz in the week after.

    I am thinking of doing a VooDoo doll esc. type jobbi on RVP's leg - do you think he will play - or shall I forget the Voodoo thing and run over his foot in my car??
