Perhaps..but with both Shearer and Bellamy getting off to a scoring start, I think Kluivert may not be the best of options. Man Utd's Alan Smith is going cheap, it may be worth a gamble? Especially against the Norwich defence.

A good goalkeeper, in general, but he ain't going to make you mega points this season. It was similar last season with Paul Robinson at Leeds. Brilliant goalkeeper, but in the wrong team and you can more or less call them a points liability.

Jerzey Dudek and Dean Kiely are pretty cheap at the minute.

Dismantling a person is sometimes necessary...

He got good alright. Talking of good....THOMAS SORENSEN

I hope some day, for some reason, David Duchovny is investigated by the FBI. Because that would make a great story.

ok, i'm slightly annoyed that i didn't know angel was injured, cos i missed out on some points there... but now i gots the problem of choosing a replacement if he's still not fit by this weekend.

i've narrowed it down to kluivert, who's cheap, and kezman, who's good... if he plays. grrr... tis making me brain hurt.

Angel is out til Sept 11th, Kezman is suspended for another two games.

Weird, thought he was supposed to be suspended. And BBC Sport definately thinks 11th.

Kezman got his ban revoked. Gudjohnsen and Drogba simply got picked ahead of him.

well, angel played last night for the reserves, cos he scored. but he's still not 100% match fit, so is a doubt for saturday... thats what teletext says, and the villa site.

Yes, if you read the link I posted that's exactly what it said. I thought about putting him in, but I need someone up front who's more consistent.

no idea but the whole league is now arsed.

if some people made changes based on the old scores, and now they have new scores, its all wrong.

fortunately, i can't make that excuse for my shambles.

Well, its all change at the top this week after a superb 144 point week moves Flapper Men United to first place, with a 26 point lead over the defending champions Spatchcock United. Surreal Madrid move up to 3rd above Dissimulation Rovers, while last week's leader TKO Mushrooms drops to sixth. Sprouts United is this week's big mover, up to seventh from last week's 16th, while Andrea Corr's Pert Rear XI goes the other way, down to 13th. The Spiky Allstars also merit a mention for arriving late but still registering a superb 134 points. At the bottom, Snazton Villa's nightmare start to the season continues, while The Killer Bunnies and We're Going Down United are also in the mire. That's not including AFC Jevons, who don't actually appear to have a full squad. Finally, The Mighty Ducks exist.

i'm still confused about todays matches, and how they score them... week two? week three? double scores? normal scores? i have many theories, but also many wrong answers.

i think i might cry

Seeing as week 3 is still changeable, I'm guessing they count as still week 2.

Thank God, Sorensen is not badly injured....

And Bobby/Kieron, sort it fricking out! I can't even sell Dyer, his value has dipped so much.

That'd mean you'd be in the bottom 2. That's not likely is it? I doubt Andrea Corr's Pert Rear will sag that fast
