    My own thoughts exactly. Last week I let yourself and Iused2likebusts sway me towards Aguero when I was slightly undecided.

    My own thought is Aguero again this week so makes it easier when ye two lads are going for him also.

    Just took a hangover effected points hit I really didnt need and will almost definitely regret

    I can't see why he would be. West Ham hardly suffer from fixture congestion.

    No early game to distract me from assignments this morning. Looking forward to rewarding my morning's hard work with Norwich vs. Crystal Palace at 3 :D

    anyone else feel dodgy having walcott? doesnt sound like he will start and got rid of Oz for him, so hope this doesnt go belly up.

    **** you Martinez.

    went for Barkley over Lallana as he was brilliant in the derby.

    yeah he's not done alot wrong but it looks like bobby m will be using both him and osman fairly equally, i'd say barkley against the better teams for his better defensive qualities

    I think we should all spare a thought for poor Mr Prodston. The forum's cult hero has been cast aside. :(

    Ahem, well in fairness, John Ruddy IS the forum cult hero, anyone who remembers the epic price rise saga of 2 years ago will atest to that. Turner did take the torch though, but now maybe his flame has gone out??? Hmmm that begs the question, who will the torch pass to now?

    Pantilimon
    Ivanovic Vlaar Coleman
    Ozil Ramsey Yaya Brady
    Aguero(c) Suarez Remy

    Only 5 players playing today, hoping for about 30 points from these as tomorrows is when the big hitters play.

    Good news so far with Barkley and Morrison being benched.
