it wouldn't even be a consideration for me, Walcott all day long. Not only does he have the better fixture this week and is captain material but he will also play the last 2 matches, whilst we now know Lapard will play saturday, there's no guarantee he'll play next week. If it was definately going to be his last game at stamford bridge i'd say he would but chances are that he'll get a new contract anyway.

Ready to do the transfer of Michu to Lampard. I have De Gea as my only playing keeper. Would it be worth transferring him out too at a 4 point hit or do people think he'll play Fergie's last 2 games in charge?

To swap De Gea or not for a 4 point hit, I'm in that boat too and I don't know what to do..

I would be reluctant to take a hit to get a keeper and would you not think with Ferguson retiring he will want the best team playing for the last home match?

I agree with Carrig2 here. OK guys, will Mata play Saturday because that makes a difference to my transfer if you reckon he might be benched.

i'm in the same boat, considering taking a 4 point hit for cazorla, not just based on this week but for the 2 weeks that remain. If i knew Mata would play both i'd keep him, no question but can we realistically see him starting saturday, starting the cup final wednesday and then starting next sunday? especially if they already have a champions league spot wrapped up before the final day? My answer is NO, he will start the cup final so likely he'll be benched for one of the other games.

so my question is, is Cazorla (-4) who is guaranteed to play 180 minutes(barring injury/suspension) at home to wigan and away to newcastle likely to outscore Mata who may only play 120 minutes, away to villa and at home to everton?? anyone care to weigh in with their thoughts? some very good posters on here so would be interested to hear your thoughts.

I don't think Mata will start tomorrow. He played 90 minutes twice this week already. I have him myself and can't see him starting.

I wouldn't sub him out for Cazorla though. Who are your other midfielders?

Cazorla hasn't scored or assisted in 6 games not someone I'd be spending 9.5m on anyway . I could see Mata outscoring him even if he only played in one game .

I'm not so sure, if they win tomorrow they are guarenteed champions league so it's a huge game, they play saturday morning so plenty of rest time till Wednesday, Hazard & Rameries are also in doubt so I think 3 from Mata / Lampard / Oscar / Moses will start tomorrow with Moses being the likely one to lose out imo.

Also Mata hasn't started the last 3 europa matches so he may not start on Wednesday.

Walcott - Bale - Coutinho, I currently have Maloney benched, just don't see him doing a whole lot away to arsenal a few days after the cup final.

Yeah looking back at cazorla' stats there's a lot of 2's and 3's lately, but when he does score he scores big. hard to know what to do.

SlickRic

Maloney is a tough one.

i fully expect Wigan to score at Arsenal; cup final or not.

i've Yaya benched at the moment.

cheers, yeah his form hasn't been great (in FF terms anyway), the couple of arsenal matches i have seen lately he hasn't been very threatening either but i don't see all of arsenal's matches so i could be wrong. I think that the 24 he got v reading is sticking in my head but that was a once off and i'd be only adding him for fear he'd do something similar rather than thinking he actually would get a big score.

yeah hoping Mata will start, if they have the champions league spot wrapped up then it'd be easier sell him next week.

He's been playing out left a lot recently & I don't think he's at his best out there .

Redknapp has said that Samba probably won't recover. Down to 25% chance now. That leaves me needing Zabaleta to start for City.

Can't take the risk of not having cover. So who's a good option? Enrique/Carragher crossed my mind but with Agger out for the season I'm afraid Liverpool's defense will creak.

KizzyMonster

I've taken a 4 point hit to bring in Sturridge and Coutinho. Do you think it'll be worth 8 points to bring in Walcott so I can captain him?

Yeah I have Sagna | Zab | Demel with Samba and Harte in "reserve".

i'd probably go with carragher then, it'll be his last 2 games and as Iused2likebusts pointed out in another thread, if liverpool get a free or penalty in the last match v qpr at anfield there's a strong chance carragher will be taking it.

We'll be first to break this news before the rest and it will be exclusively live here in Gameweek 37 Transfers.

He is the 3rd highest scoring midfielder in the game and has 3 things in his favour 1 he plays in a position that will give him chances 2 he plays in a team that scores lots of goals 3 Hes playing against a team thats tired and have to attack. I think he is a great option this week. Cazorla is like Bale from seasons gone by lots of 2 pointers followed by a double digit score. Heres hoping its double digit time.

Steven81

Think Lindegaard only has to play in one of the 2 games to get his premier league medal, he has 9 league apperances to date and think he needs 10, for this reson DDG is dodgy, i think i have this right.

Santi101

Hazard is doubtful again too. Apparently checking on him later but expected to be involved. Another low score I'd say.

They only need 5 for a medal now

Special Agent Oso

i agree with Walcott being a good shout for captain but im thinking of leaning towards RVP with it being Fergies last home game and being presented the league trophy, utd will wanna do it in style plus Swansea do leak goals and is Vorm still out? I dunno thinking of going dutch this weekend

Yeah that's true. Lindergard got his home game last week. De Gea will start this weekend

Michu might be fit this weekend !!!

aaaargh....i had made up my mind to keep mata but you make a case i need to stay off this forum

Do they even need five? I think the club just get 40 medals now to distribute how they please.

Santi101

Hope Dea Gea goes back in this week. Think United will start with a strong side for Fergie's last home match.
