Good to see a new post on your blog Chris :-)

RVP (c) over Walcott is what my instinct says, despite everything pointing to Walcott. Your captaincy rankings make me feel a lot better about it!

Thanks Chris, love these posts. Like JT, I am leaning to RvP but strongly considering Walcott for the (c).

The bigger issue for me is 3 L'pool/Swan (Agger/Michu/Sturridge)with a blank and 3 other potential sitters - Shaw (still a yellow "i"), Wilkinson (probably dependent on Wilson's fitness) and Marveaux (starts only if Gouffran is still out). I had planned to drop Agger for sure for perhaps Santon or M.Dawson (or Walker). Was thinking 1 more move (and 4 point hit) might be useful to insure I have 11. Your numbers here suggest Lukaku or Tevez might be worth a shout for Sturridge but both come with the risk of not necessarily being nailed on. Wonder if others think a Sturridge swap-out is worth the 4 point hit. I tend to think Tevez will still come good over the rest of the season and sooner or later Clarke must realize what a beast Lukaku is. I've only taken 2 point hits all season, so I am leaning to 'small ball' again but I am chasing a 60 point lead in my minileague . . . any opinions out there ?

Why no Sissoko or Giroud in the individual rankings?

Selecting defenders within the same team

-
We talked about this earlier in the season, but with a couple more games in the bag, I've updated the viz which attempts to help you choose your defenders. The "All Players" tab should in theory help you do this coming with a blank slate, but the r aison d'etre for the viz is to help you choose between players in the same side, once you've decided that, for example, you want a City defender. The viz can be found linked from the main menu , and here and should be opened separately to best read this piece. A few notes as of GW5 below. Arsenal I'm not sure how much value there is with this defense right now, but if you are planning to play the fixtures and take a chance with one of Emery's men, this would suggest it should be Mustafi rather than the 10% owner Bellerin who you should target. Bournemouth Cook is the man here for now, though if a clear winner emerges from the developing Daniels vs Rico battle then one of those players could topple him b...

Postponement Chaos

Rule number one of fantasy football is to field a full side of 11 players every week and preferably have at least one sub ready to step in in case of a last minute injury. This week is going to be the exception to the rule. With four games off: Liverpool v Spurs Fulham v Portsmouth Sunderland v Bolton, and Burnley v Stoke many managers are going to be struggling to pick a side this week. The key here is not to overreact. Do not throw 4 point transfer fees around just to field a team this week and don't transfer out players with good future prospects just because they are off this week. Also remember that if you own a player whose value has significantly risen ( eg Fabregas ) then you will lose money if you sell him with the intention of buying him back. If I make two transfers, as I was considering anyway, I will be able to play 10 men and I'm happy with that. If you think you can manage in GW 23, City and United players might be worth the 4 point hit as you will get back t...
