Didn't play last year - but given that they were the two highest scorers, it's a brave man to leave them out....

I'm not brave.

Having said that - putting them in leaves me with Ashton and Agbonlahor upfront. Perhaps i should re-consider!

I think you can, based roughly on the assumption that they will outscore equally priced Forwards in the game (I know there's a lot more too it than that but it's been debated to death and back)

I didn't think it was possible until I tried a variation yesterday... It would be much easier if Cahill was not injured though.

Having heard SAF saying Tevez needs a couple of weeks work right enough, i think he'll get changed.

Anyone with Ronaldo and Lampardinho both in midfield is asking for trouble IMO.

Just ronaldo for me - If you have lampard do yourself a favour replace him with Malouda, use £2mill elsewhere. it just makes sense.

I dont understand it when people say that, every team in the prem is going to play 38 games, so it makes no difference.
Or am I missing something ?

The trick is to not have the players who will miss a week and to have the players who have a double GW.

Personally I have both, but it leaves me with a relatively dodgy defence. It's a big decision - to swap one for MGP wold make my squad radically different.

I just had a look at the type of team you can make if you leave out Lamps and Ronaldo:

VDS

Evra Neville (MU) Finnan Lescott Carvalho

GamstP Arteta Essien

Berb RVP

Subs: Niemi, Carsley, Smertin, Earnshaw

Look at the arse on that J-Lo :lol: And the rest is hardly shabby!

He was very quiet alright. One good pass that was for SWP that Joe Cole messed up, and that was about it. He was still taking the corners, but 11million is a lot for that.
