Fantastic!<br /><br />May I ask for 3 main defenders, combined with a pair of goalkeepers, and 3 main forwards which can form the nucleus of a winning team?<br />Would Vorm, Begovic, Gallas, Mertesacker, Zabaleta work in defense, with Tevez, Berbatov, Fletcher banging in the goals regardless of fixtures?<br />Teffahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16388334709026198476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-77840701333979932672012-09-20T00:29:53.736-04:002012-09-20T00:29:53.736-04:00Hi Chris,

Like, who is the one person who has the maximum share of goals, chances created or blocks/interceptions.<br />Any help would be appreciated.

I really feel that Lamps could be the right choice here despite the good fixtures as he is very likely to sit out the next one after starting 4 games in last 2 weeks. I also really liked what Kags did agaisnt Galatasaray and think he will be a decent asset in the coming weeks.<br /><br />Please share your thoughts on my dilemma, really need all the help I can get.<br />Thanks for all the good work!Pulmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09959874483484651566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-4479527750649792922012-09-19T05:36:51.903-04:002012-09-19T05:36:51.903-04:00Hello Chris!

I rate him one of the best (and stroppy) players in the P-league, but with only a few or no minutes playtime I rather have a secure player (Fletcher, Podolski). I can't affort another swap this week but I'm considering him out if he doesn't play this week. What do you think?Tikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00856597222344194288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-64065439613632917252012-09-19T01:12:21.040-04:002012-09-19T01:12:21.040-04:00Question: With Szczesny picking up another ankle i...Question: With Szczesny picking up another ankle injury, who do I grab at keeper?

He almost plays as a winger and is on set pieces for one of the stronger defensive teams in good form with a great run of fixtures. Possibly slightly overpriced but not sure there's a defender in the 6.5+ bracket I'd rather have for the next few weeks.Nibbsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01452906043628669127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-5403376429814047902012-09-18T05:59:07.879-04:002012-09-18T05:59:07.879-04:00@Ramzy - not sure whether Chris would agree with t...@Ramzy - not sure whether Chris would agree with this, but my view is that you need to prioritise the big money players in your team, as those are the guys who should get most of your points and are also your captain options. That is as long as you can field 3 defenders which at the moment you can.<br /><br />Your transfers look good but would consider Pienaar over HBA as you already have Ba and no Everton players.Nibbsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01452906043628669127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-26881673698214204102012-09-18T04:33:29.114-04:002012-09-18T04:33:29.114-04:00Hi Chris,

I know you weren't going to discuss defenders keeping clean sheets, but on a related note, what do you think of Guzan? At 4.5m he seems like a good way to jump out of the de Gea boat, but will Given get another chance in the Villa team?m4v15https://www.blogger.com/profile/07940838542374443430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-82500815371712967942012-09-18T02:32:58.649-04:002012-09-18T02:32:58.649-04:00Cheers Chris, very nice new weekly addition.

While I know you favor the cheaper route to defenses, with the fixtures falling kindly and him in form, he looks a solid buy option. <br /><br />Pienaar also looks great down the left, only problem is the competition between the midfield slots is so strong at the moment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05511105886342622598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-18538059140069463902012-09-18T01:48:23.838-04:002012-09-18T01:48:23.838-04:00Hi Chris,

I know he didn't get anything this week, but I'm looking for alternatives to Petric, and was wondering what you made of Ricky Lambert at Southampton? I can't quite afford Fletcher or Berbatov without a hit, so is Lambert a good bet, do you feel?<br /><br />Regards,<br />JamesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-20015504093432098322012-09-18T01:28:22.351-04:002012-09-18T01:28:22.351-04:00First of all, Great blog Chris.

A little help here with my team:<br /><br />Friedel/Federici<br />Clyne Zab Hangeland A.Cole Cuellar<br />Michu Nasri Valencia Guthrie Hazard<br />Ba Podolski Tevez<br /><br />I want to prioritize which transfer to make as Nasri and Valencia have been 'wasting' money with their negligible returns.Am thinking of this 2 transfers for a 4 point hit or at least 1 transfer;<br /><br />1. Nasri to Ben Arfa<br />2. Valencia to Bale<br />There are also other deadwood that needs to be gotten rid of like Zab,Clyne,Federici and Cuellar(injured) and am not willing to wildcard this early.<br /><br />The question is, where should my priorities be in terms of transfers barring those aforementioned transfers?Ramzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18312778225234802957noreply@blogger.com
