Hahaha. I noticed these Villa blocks popping up in everyone's teams. It's got to be a bandwagon thing. It could only make sense inside the bandwagon.

I brought Laursen in for the injured Richards for last GW and their double next week. Will be back to two Villains from then.

Birmingham vs Aston Villa

Aston Villa have been abit up and down all season. They scored two very good goals last week, but against Derby who haven't scored away from home this season. Their clean sheet was no surprise.

Birmingham have had it very tough this season with little goals from their strikers. Kapo has been in amazing form, and it's very likely he might score again.

I think Aston Villa will be going into this game looking to win and attack. I think Birmingham will score also. Aston Villa are yet to have a clean sheet away from home since round 2

1-1


If it's any consolation, i'm still going to play Knight in my team in favour of my manchester city bench...

Wow thanks for all the feedback.

I think I have to play Lescott and Bentley just because they are capable of getting points against any team.

Campbell makes sense, but it sucks I'll have to play Elano, but maybe a Pompey clean sheet and Elano's usual 2 points for not scoring or anything would be okay

I guess it's safe to captain Fabs.

as long as I get over 50 odd points I'll be okay on my averages.

Got 2 blinding gameweeks coming up that I think my league leader hasn't planned for.

im thinking of getting rid of lescott this week for Gallas part in preparation for the double but also to avoid chelsea

If Cech is crocked and Yakuba and Cahill are coming good, I wouldn't write off LeScott entirely - mind you I don't think you'll be seeing 4 points for CS

But Bentley's hattrick was at Ewood not Old Trafford (in a 4-3 home win, 01/02/06).

Other problems for me.

Richards might still be injured and even if he's not I'm not sure I wanna play him. But my only sub options are Butt and Forssell. Butt is suspended and Forssell will probably not play 90 minutes.
Already did a transfer: Bentley in for Hunt.

Second transfer looming, but who? Want to bring in Santa Cruz for Forssell next week with the doubles in mind, so need my money in the bank. All I could maybe do is bring in Distin or McCartney (who is set to rise) for Richards, but should I take a 4 point hir for that?
