    Bit of an unusual gameweek fixture wise, with just the one game on Saturday and 2 midweek games also.

    Most people pretty edgy with rotation likely across the teams

    Dawson (Stoke Away)

    or

    Clyne (Sunderland Away)

    At a guess Dawson
    Edit.. Dawson more likely to get a clean sheet
    Clyne for attacking points

    Any news on Chelsea team? Have Mata + Hazard and should probably get rid of one

    Mulling over a 4 point hit to get rid of either Mata or Hazard for Santi, as I cant see them both playing. 3 minutes to pull the trigger...

    Hazard is less likely to play than the unlikely to play Mata. Santi plays Wigan at home gunning for Champions league!

    I swapped Mata for Lampard myself

    Tell me about it! I bottled, now nervously await the team news... With Federici and Harte on my bench, I can only afford two of these five being dropped.

    Hart
    Zabaleta
    Tevez
    Mata
    Hazard

    Nervy times. I'm counting on Zab + Mata or Hazard not playing.

    I've said it many times, Ancelotti used to be a godsend naming it the day before.

    Am I right in thinking in some countries they have to name starting 11 the day before or is my thinking arseways?

    I thought Ancelotti might have got the habit from Italy or something.

    I would say the reason that the deadline is 11.30 is because noboby will know team news.

    Nothing more we can do. Van Persie is captain, Lampard had better seriously outscore Mata and Kone and Maloney need to be competitive at the Emirates.

    It's not like there's going to have to be a different team put out to rival the selection!
    They just want to make the Fantasy more difficult. :D

    good that mata starts, bad that Luiz doesn't. hope he comes on as a sub for 1 though because with Tuner defintely out and Zab unlikley to feature it means i've just got sagna, and Mariappa coming in off the bench.
