*****The OFFICIAL OCUK 2011/2012 Fantasy Football League*****

Not sure about Modric. It's possible he might let all the rumours etc affect him. I might look for a replacement

I wouldn't go near Modric tbh, great player but in this game doesn't get nearly enough assists or goals to make spending 8m on him. With Modric you're really relying on him get 3 bonus points every week to make it worth while and if it's Bale (who costs the same amount) getting goals and assists chances are the bonus points will go to him also
 
If you had 4.5 for a forward, who would you go for? Trying to pick out one from Norwich, Swansea and QPR but don't want to pick another 'Ebanks-blake'.

4.5 is really nothing for a striker, I started my team with Nile Ranger as my cheap striker but the fact is he wont ever play for Newcastle. You're better off juggling your team around a bit a get an extra .5 for someone like Danny Graham (top scorer in the Championship last season)

I'm glad Spurs' game has been called off, was in two minds about whether I should keep VDV in my team or not - decision made now :)
 
Now i am thinking....

Bale and Doyle or Barton and an 8m striker

Wouldn't have Bale or Barton tbh, what with the latter's contract disputes I cant see Pardew putting him in the starting XI till after the transfer windows ends at the earliest and Bale doesn't play this week then has to play United the week after (Rafael generally has him in his pocket)
 
Ramsey could be one to go for, only 6.5m and unlike Wilshire actually scores goals as well. With both Csec and Nasri looking like leaving (and even if they dont I doubt they'll play this week) Ramsey should definitely feature for Arsenal
 
:p wouldn't go for Crouch either, doesn't play week one, you dont know what club he'll be at come the end of the transfer window and if that wasn't enough he doesn't score enough goals ;)
 
Made my final team amendments, had a decision on whether to go with Bent or Drogba up front. Fingers crossed I've picked the right one :)
 
The only Man Utd defenders anyone should have in is Ferdinand, Vidic or Evra. Our RB slot can easily be filled by any 1 of 3 players with no one really nailing it down. Plus both twins are very injury prone
 
I got the impression at the end of last season that everyone was impressed with Rafael

If that was the case his brother wouldn't of ended the season in the team ;)

Smalling can play RB and did last week despite Rafael being on the bench, now that was probably just because Rafa has had more football in pre-season and as Fabio has always been looked at as a LB chances are out of the 3 Rafael probably will end up being the first choice RB but for this season and Fantasy Football at sake (lol) I wouldn't put him in my team simply because you dont know whether he's going to start from one week to another
 
Very poor first week for me, only 21 points with Lescott and Kompany still to play. Late on Friday I took Rooney out for Bent and Rodallega :(
 
Where you getting this free transfer stuff from? I just went to make a whole load of changes and it showed me how many points which would be deducted from the next gameweek's total and just to make sure I double checked with my g/f's team

No more than 1 free transfer whatsoever
 
Looks to me that you've played your wildcard because that's not what the screen on my other halves team says

I on the other hand have played my wildcard (I know I know but you get two bites at it) and that's what the screen on my team looks like
 
I've lined up like this;

----------------Given---------------
-----Brown----Alex----Kompany----
Nani---Larsson---Malouda---Jarvis
-----Fletcher---Torres---Bent------

Hoping that's better than my awful effort last week
