    Well then. Seals the deal. I'll be making three changes this week so. Pieters, DDG, and Rooney out. Pelle/Dzeko/Aguero, Fabianski, and maybe a defender from one of O' Shea/Dann/Wilson in. I'm glad I have those 2 FTs. A -4 isn't so bad. The problem becomes choosing which of those to trios to bring in. If anyone has any advice, I'll gladly take it. :D

    Pieters has been a disaster for me since I bought him in three weeks ago. Duff is my first sub, making it the third week in a row one of my defenders has scored a 0.

    Hope Pieters stays on the bench - would have PVA coming off my bench with another six points

    Wasn't expecting that at all, I should win now but not celebrating yet! Plenty could still go wrong with begovic for me

    I don't care if Newcastle get stuffed, once they can sneak a goal. Pieters not starting is a bonus. Hopefully comes on for a 1 pointer.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Anyone know why Pieters' benched? Was considering him for Shawcross but might as well go the cheapest Wilson route.

    Cos Hughes is an asshole. Really really annoyed over him being benched.

    Crouch goal Moses assist.

    Now I just need Stoke to lose the clean sheet and it's smooth sailing!

    Who did you get instead? Thing is for that price it's hard to get better unless your second keeper is guaranteed not to play...

    I got Forster. Mannone is probably the best 4.5 replacement.

    Yeah but I'd have no back keeper if Mannone gets injured/suspended... Will tinker over it.

    29 clean sheets in 98 appearances the last 3 seasons. Close to 4 points per game last season and 8 great opening fixtures. For 4.5 and those stats he was worth the money it just didnt work out.

    That 13 pointer last year versus Spurs did it for me - was an absolute hero for me that day. Possibly the highest points ever scored by a keeper in a game without scoring a goal or saving a penalty?
