With under an hour to go before the gameweek deadline descends on us, we’ve opened up the Saturday Surgery to offer a cosy haven for those looking for late late advice in a hurry.

With double gameweek investments to ponder, why not pop in to get an instant view on the current Fantasy Football buzz, fire your question into the chatroom ether and see what pearls of wisdom are sent back. Dugout Discussion follows for today’s 12.45 kick-off at Old Trafford.

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

      Ha I feel your pain, I sold Nani and Coleman this morning convinced that Nani would see more of the bench than the pitch. Hoping he doesnt perform but United take the points.

        Me too as I'm a ManU fan. Hoping for an easy win with no Nani involved ,3-0 at the halftime so SAF can rest him. Too much to ask? 😀

    Can i still pick FT picks? 🙁 (i'll not pick united players since lineups are already out)
    If I can, then i pick Dirk Kuyt, Asamoah Gyan and Solomon Kalou.
    If I cant then i'll just sit here and cry 🙁

              Did you see DB's joke about Beckham a couple of days ago? Was tres funny. It was when that guy was doing the 'Who Am I?' question about some fictional footballer, and he asked:

              Who is the most famous fictional footballer?

              DB: David Beckham

              I lol'ed very hard.
