Wow. Is he injured? Baffling decision by lvg

Swiper the fox

Good news is that Wisdom has regained his place for West Brom. Bit of a worry he'd be out in the cold after missing the last day

Lucas Hood

The oul must have Falcao on bench.

I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS

HighClass

Out of the three United players I have one starts, one on the bench and one not in the squad. I'll be lucky to break 30.

Thank the gods no Falcao, this week has been a huge disaster for me.

Swiper the fox

Falcao looking less "essential" by the day.;)

Ace2007

Beautiful squad - Blackett not even in bench which means cork will come on for me with 8 points -

Think he banged in 3 (or 4) a recent reserve game. Would still be a shock to see Falcao dropped.

Evo2000 won't be too happy

I thought he was essential??

He was only out because he was playing against Liverpool, who he's on loan from.

The last game was against Liverpool. He couldn't play.

This may well be the kind of game where Falcao comes on for 20 minutes and nets two goals.

Utd could go 4 3 3 with adm playing further forward on the left of a front 3 which would have me review my transferring him out plans.

I was thinking about bringing him in for Mannone this week

one of the reasons I did not get him in on wildcard which I was considering is he misses a fair few games each season

I have serious concerns for Evo overheating while hiding under all the blankets.

Dr. Bre

no doubt falcao will be v Chelsea. LVG prob feels he needs to give janu a couple of games.

16 from 5, feck everything. Maybe Falcao can save the week by scoring two hat tricks or something, I think it's more likely that he'll be sent off...

Close enough....

thunderdog

Costa (C), Falco (VC), No Aguero...its been another great week

alchemist33

Don't have Falcao but surprised he's been left out after getting off the mark last gameweek.

SlickRic

Is Falcao's omission due to getting back late from international duty or something?

IsMiseMyself

Echoing everyone else. Don't have him but surprised he's not starting. Maybe strained himself or something?

Possibly keeping him fresh for Chelsea at weekend?

Mr.Prodston

LVG said he was back from internationals 2 days after RVP. Whether that's why it's what he said

I did know that lest anybody thinks I don't have my finger on the pulse:p

It's just that his replacement got good reviews, there was some doubt about whether or not Wisdom would come straight back into the team. I'm relieved he did, don't want to have to waste my transfers on the budget defenders

FFS reckoned he might have lost his place to Gamboa alright.

I like the way Ultimate deadline hasn't passed yet, can move captaincy away from Falcao! Still going to leave him in though in case he comes off the bench

iroced

Wow shocking news to see Falcao on the bench :eek:! I guess all Falcao owners have to pray WBA holds United square or even better get in front so that he's needed upfront.

Trying to be very positive I'll remind all of you that we've seen big points gotten in 10-20 min several times in FPL (have Aguero immediately in mind, supersub Wanyama scored twice this season, only when he came in for a late ~ 20 min cameo). Stranger things have happened .

Pedalare Pedalare!

No Falcao has ruined what could have been a great gameweek for me. Had Costa as captain, Falcao as vice. Rest of the team had done *pretty* ok. All for nowt now.

I didn't play him but was 90% sure I had him subbing in for Blackett, just checked and it turns out he's my third sub

Good god you can't buy a break man!

Are you by any chance not a real person but actually an advert from the 90s for Hamlet cigars?

Warning. Getting that reference is not a good sign!

Mr.Prodston

It's about time a Sessegnon bandwagon was started. No season is complete without one :pac:

Inspector Coptoor

If Falcao stays off wisdom will come in for me.

United look so rubbish at the back

Dr. Bre

hve wisdom on bench like most people but he will come in
