Gerrard - the next Rooney?
Liverpool will have to rest Steven Gerrard soon which is why I reckon he is going down so much today.
If Mongoose's stats are correct, over 3000 teams have Gerrard in them which means the potential loss of keeping him in is HUGE, ala Wayne Rooney. Andrew Forscutt kept hold of Rooney when he was going down and as a result lost out on the top spot to the impressive Roy Turrell.
I am going to ditch Gerrard, and go for Downing as he seems to be the only midfielder going up today, and he is back from injury so demand-wise can only move in the right direction, also Boro have a good run of fixtures.

Anyway, to catch up with the leaders you need a contrary team (which is why I am so Arsenal heavy in defence)
May regret it, but I would rather have a pop at the top spot than finish top 50.

And at least you've saved the increases built in by transfers over the last few weeks. If you notice, he was subbed yesterday before the finish, and again did little of note (except for the penalty obviously ).
He will score a lot of points before the end of the season. But, if they do manage to sign Victor/any RW, he will be rested soon - probably sometime between the Chelsea and Arsenal games.
Maybe even on Wednesday. And then he might plummet. Performances aside, there's only downwards potential for Gerrard on the transfer front.
