Has three I reckon??

No scored his fourth in injury time
Happy to say he was my first picked, the guy is a freak, had a bad season last year but was a scoring machine at Wolfsburg, was upset that United didnt chase him

What's he worth in fantasy land?

Rooney captain, dzeko 4 wallcot 1 happy days for never in top

I really have no idea what I'm doing, so can someone explain to me how the trading works? Is it like Dream Team at all?

Yeah, can only trade one per round though. Think you can have one round where you can trade more

There's two wild cards which allow unlimited trades(?), although you can only use it in January???

So is the idea to get cheap players and get their price to rise and then trade them out to make money?

To do a successful team you need to know the players well and know what sort of stats they can produce per game like assists, goals etc It's alot easier when you know what you think the players worth coz if you go down the path of picking cheapies your season will be over quickly.

So how do you improve your team? This is what I don't get??

By trading, i picked up Steven Hunt from Wolves for about 6mill i think, he has had a couple of good games and now he is worth 7mill, so i can sell him and bring in a better defender

That's what I'm after. So the player values change. You'd expect Dzeko to be fairly expensive now then?

Its easier siad then done though Jim, you have to be in the know and have an idea of who the players are that will get games and be able to increase their price. Dzeko onsong will go up but not by that much.

I got stung by Rodallega not being a regular starter earlier this season, with Di Santo primarily playing up front for the Latics, thought Wigan would have won more games with their favourable early season draw but it hasn't gone that way.
Now they face Man U. Ack!

Getting frustrated with Maxi Rodriguez not being a regular with Liverpool

You can make as many trades as you want, the first one is free and each after that deducts 4 pts from your weekly score. I did a fair bit of juggling last week to squeeze in Rooney so I started -16pts for the round.

[Jim05]

I keep forgetting to check who is actually playing. I had Jenas and Rodwell and they didnt play a minute between them

On the fantasy site, does the whole gameweek get locked at the start of the first match or do they unlock it inbetween matches ? because unlike AFL fantasy where you know who's playing a day before the first game, in the EPL you never really know until they're basically out there.

I can't tell any difference between Jenas not playing a minute and playing a full 90. Usually does his best impression of an invisible man....

With me, pissing of Torres and don't ever make him captain again.
I thought they had an easy game on the w/e and hit would be able to hit the back of the net a few times.
A total of 4 I have received for him in the last 2 weeks.
Meanwhile if I put a "C" on Rooney who I also have I would be 27 points better off.

Was toying with bringing in Dzeko, decided not to for some reason and have instead taken Mikel from Chelsea for Nigel De Jong, who is permanently injured it seems.

Now, who to captain? Do I stick with Rooney? This game does my head in.

I thought he played really well against Stoke in the FA Cup final and set up a lot of their play but there you go, obviously a dud who is always injured. Ack!

Hoping for a 0-0 draw between Villa and Everton this week, although Bent is one of my strikers. Haha
