    Gotta get 7 from these 8 and then find a captain :(

    Yaya, silva, fab, sterling, sanchez
    Giroud, Kane and Austin

    Sterling would be obv choice for bench but I brought him in to play. Painful decisions - doesn't help having dodgy internet in country

    The forum may be hit with some rotation itself. FinnHarpsBoy has just informed me on the Playstation forum that he got a PS4 and may not be around today!

    Agreed.
    But if Podolski is ever going to start a league game in place of Sanchez or Welbeck then surely its today.
    Maybe a week too early for Walcott though.

    Reports on Twitter this morning that Podolski is set for Inter.

    Will be at the in laws all day with no WIFI or 3G myself. Hopefully will get the lineups somehow, but it'll be ceefax after that!

    Good luck all.

    Probably captaining Bony as a safe option, although RVP is on my mind like an ex after a messy breakup looking for one last fumble. Don't want to go there but it's somehow tempting...

    A real chance for the lesser known names to step up to the plate in the match reporting stakes. Could we see a new Kammy emerge perhaps?

    jeez this is wrecking my head
    held off in hope of some rumoured line ups ?
    falcao in for Rooney ?
    Rooney too deep but on set pieces and IF rvp is rested on pens BUT falcao looked really really really sharp
    I'll be making falcao captain too
    otherwise its bony or giroud

    We may tell him not to be seduced by FIFA, Pro Evo is where it's at.

    Sure we can expect posts today of hattricks for his players as he forgets the difference between PS4 and the real EPL.:D

    Just saw this now. I've gone with Bony myself.

    Ended up putting Falcao in for Rooney seeing Rooney is playing in the middle of the park. Was thinking of going for a 4 point hit to replace Hazard but it''s not really worth it. Since I stopped doing 4 point hits I've started to do better in the overall standings. This week is complete pot luck, remember when Costa was "injured" earlier in the year and he then went onto score a hat trick. I still have nightmares about that.

    I don't mind the Sky going. Can still watch recordings. Kids are watching Arthur Christmas at the minute while I finish off building any toys that weren't opened yesterday.

    The broadband going again would indeed be brutal though.

    It's a holiday house, deliberately no wifi for when they are home to ulplug the kids and work. And as for the 3G, it's Donegal!!

    Brother in law is a Spurs fan from London, there will be some means of getting scores.

    I may spend some time walking around the garden with my phone in the air around 2.05 though....

    Went with Silva (c) and benched Sanchez :eek:

    Didn't have time to change my first draft...

    Siggy on bench instead of Sakho could hurt me big time...
    And Sanchez (C) Silva (VC). I feel my run of good (C) choice has already ended...

    As opposed to many really hate this time of year FF-wise...

    With the Hazard and Alexis doubts I've taken a punt on Eriksen as Captain. He has a great away record and Leicester are on a poor run.

    Banked the transfer, which is a risk given the time of year and the fact that Boyd is my only fit sub. Nervous wait for line ups.
