Yeah me neither, could be a disaster! Although to be honest the players in my team should be the core for the next few months so I wouldn't be transferring them out for the sake of one week.

Definitely a chance for people with the WC to benefit though.

How would you see it being of benefit? I'm asking this in an inquisitive manner, its not an attack.

If say the Swansea and Stoke game was called off Friday, what could I do considering I've only 1 transfer and three of their players, Davies, Cameron and Begovic. I'd be loath to transfer either Begovic or Cameron due to the money I've made on them, having got both at 4.5. Also my sub goalie is Cerny.

Surely its better to use the wildcard after the gameweek, or not?

manual_man · 16-01-2013 06:06PM

the REAL people who could benefit are those who have BOTH wildcards left to play. use the second to fix things up after this weekend. the thing about postponed games though, sometimes they're called off not too long before kick-off, so given the ff deadlines, there might not be alot anyone can do

My exact line of thinking. The wildcard would be beneficial for the reschedualed games. There isn't much point in stacking your team with Norwich and QPR players for 1 gameweek and simultaneously destroying your team.

With talk of all these games being off this weekend it would be a good time to have 2 free transfers. Wilcard could be a case of short time gain long time pain depending on what matches go ahead.

I thought it was a mistake not using my wildcard during the first international break and making money on price rises. But talk of snow could work out well. I still have both wildcards. At a guess which games are most likey to be affected by snow do you think?

Yeah but if Rooney finds some form again, Fergie might feel easier resting RVP now and again!!!!

After tonights peno miss by Rooney, Rvp has surely become even more valuable as he has to be on utd penos now. Also just looking at assists for the season full backs are returning a lot of assists probably down to the way most teams are set up now with 433 and attacking full backs being the preferred formation nowadays. We have gibbs and evra 5 baines riise rafeal shorey walker 4 johnson enrique clyne riether azpilicueta 3. Thats 9 assists from 2 utd FBs 7 from Fulhams 6 from liverpools. Even tonight in the chelsea game 2 southampton full backs get assists and Azpil unlucky not to get one.

Southampton have just sacked Nigel Adkins,dunno how this will affect the current team but worth keeping an eye on for all the owners of Clyne,Puncheon & Lambert.
