Vindication
Nowt to shout about, having Tevez as captain seems to be a default setting for everyone at moment, so by taking away the 24 points he got for me, my other players got me 32 points between them which is just not good enough. (How does my vindication section seem to involve me giving out)
D’oh
5 players getting 2 points or less (including Samba getting –1)
Hunch
Nani & Berbatov to show him, after this gameweek Everton to win next 5 games
Drama
Rooney doesn’t’ think his team mates are good enough for him, he’s out for next 3 weeks. Is this the time for Macheda to take his spot or Berbatov to build on his form thus far.
I’m no lawyer, but I’m pretty sure Andy Carroll is going to jail soon (being put on bail while waiting for another court case, also to do with assault doesn’t do many favours), so does he goes with a bang or with a whimper? Associated with this is the fact there are strong whispers (what does that mean) than Hughton is on zero time, next loss and he’s out I’ve heard. Even though he’s a decent bloke etc etc those Geordies need a name, and ideally a messiah.
Transfers
Damn it, due to 3 defenders (Evans, Alex and Samba) being unavailable, I have to bring in a defender otherwise it’s just a dead cert to have zero points from one of them. I wanna keep Alex so it’s a toss up between Samba or Evans, Blackburn should get at least 3 clean sheets out of their next 5 (after this week) and samba is first choice, so I’ll err with him even though you can expect good old Rio to get injured any…. minute…..now… Now who do I replace him with? Coleman gets the nod, mostly cos he’s Irish and in form.
I really didn’t want to make any transfers so I could do a double swoop next week. Bollocks
Theory/Selection
Due to the 2 defenders missing, the only choice is which of my 12 outfielders to drop. I guess it’ll be Kevin Doyle away Chelsea I’ll drop, if I need to explain that I don’t know what you know! The keeper selection is tougher, I’m just gonan go with the home goalkeeper rule, so Hart it is. He should make a few saves at least, so pick up a few points even if they don’t keep a clean sheet. I have Cleverly (at Wigan) in midfield and he’s barely played so I’d say it’s time to move him on soon.
Errah fuck it, I’ll drop doyle now, just noticed their next 4 games are Chelsea, Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal. I’ll sell him and buy Bent and take the 4 point hit, to accommodate him I need to sell Nolan and bring in a cheaper player, Albrighton at Villa. He seems a rising star and will get plenty of bonus points cos he’s English. Now I’ve .8 million in the bank and losing another 8 points this week.
My Team this week
Keeping An Eye On
Micah Richards is on my radar, as is the entire Everton back 4
Captains Corner with Phergal
(a weekly feature now with friend of Back Of The Net Boy, a big fan of fantasy football)
bit of bragging first, transferred in tevez last week and captained him, made up what would have been a fairly crappy week. get in.
so once again it's hard to look past chelsea who will ride wolves like a crazy bitch, reports from camp stamford suggest drogba is over his man flu and will start against wolves so he's my captain this week. Malouda is also an obvious choice, although there's an increasing risk of him being rested every now and then so he's a risk in my opinion, but have him in you lineup anyway. Anelka is a decent pick too. heck any chelsea player against wolves will get you points.
i like tevez at home to arsenal although mancini is annoyingly hinting that tev will play in the euro game due to various injuries and be rested against arsenal which sounds crazy and may be some kind of mind game?
i'd have a good look at your emergency captain settings this week and decide who it will go to value or form. starting 11's are getting a bit unpredictable and you should know exactly where you captain's armband is going if your guy is out.
and that's it really, not many other extremely favourable fixtures. for a gamble choice, you could do worse than VDV or hat trick hero Bale against everton.
