Hopefully Santi delivers a few days early.......

Santi101

Hope i'm wrong, but this match screams Arsenal slip-up.....cold weather conditions, up North, pitch probably not great, early kick-off, Arsenal overconfident after running over dirt poor Reading.

prettyboy81

Swapped Santi for Silva & made Silva captain....Come on the 0-0 Wigan v Arsenal

Santi101

For anyone that has Giroud, he's not even on the bench today. Ill apparently.

One of my mates got him in a few weeks ago before our apparent easy run but he's done nothing.

Santi Claus IS coming to town. Don't ruin our buzz. On the Walcott wincast too again after Monday

Santi101

Fingers crossed, I have Santi just not captained. Plus Arsenal fan so I'm rooting for him!

The guy at the top of one my leagues is playing a 5 2 3 this week :@ ...... Strange as he has a lot of budget defenders in it.
If aguero scores a few I could be in trouble too lots of aguero captains in my leagues....

TheEscapist

Newcastle can hopefully come good today with a few goals for Ba and my weekend should be a success.

James McCarthy at cb today .Arsenal could get a few goals today .

Good move from Martinez imo.

Max Power

Wigan the better team so far, hope it stays that way as I've no Arsenal players.

Lemlin

Cazorla looks threatening but he's making plenty of errors too.

Tinie

Terrible miss from Kone.

machiavellianme

Arsenal back to their uninspiring selves. Trust me to have captained Cazorla. Can't get anything right it seems

KevIRL

Tevez and augero start anyway

darego

peno walcott assist if its scored

Iused2likebusts

aguero and tevez start

Scorpion Sting

Arteta goal, Walcott assist.

Jax Teller

No Dempsey for Spurs

TOTTENHAM: Lloris, Walker, Caulker, Dawson, Vertonghen, Sandro, Dembele, Lennon, Bale, Defoe, Adebayor

machiavellianme

I am beginning to hate mikel arteta. Offers nothing but gets in the way taking santis penalties

Hogey007

silva starts anyway,

i switched my captain last minute from silva to cazorla because i thought mancini might rest silva with it only being reading but was sure cazorla would play.
regretting it now that silva is starting.

He's really starting to annoy me, the one week he got a score recently I had him on the bench. I've really neglected my defense this year, going to take a points hit next week to finally get rid of him and santon.

Should Walcott not have an assist?

He should yeah .

Santi subbed with a couple of mins left

Lemlin

Santi off with 3. Excellent.

Fowler87

Need a goal from Baines after Verm keeping CS to make up for another point hit. Should have left it til next week

Iused2likebusts

santi currently at 101% on fiso for a price rise would be nice if he got it before I offload him tomorrow.

manual_man

nuts. cup opponent has 2 arsenal def's

El Horseboxo

No assist for Walcott on fpl. Surely that will be changed if he was fouled for the peno.

Nobody has it. Odd.

He doesn't have it yet . Neither does anyone else



It's 100% his assist , he'll have it given to him before the gw is over .

Gibbs is the business

6,1,1,8,7,6 since I got him in. Wouldn't be surprised if he got BPs too, they seem to love him and Shawcross.

Jax Teller

Guy im playing in cup is from Belgium has captained Mignolet & has another 7 Belgians in his squad .
