Well well well . . . .Potter kept quiet about Veltman didn't he? A man who had become a regular in everyone's team was dropped due to a calf strain. Other than that, a pretty textbook selection with the 3 at the back of White, Dunk & Webster.
24 Pickers got within a player of the selection, but clearly no one worked out Veltman would be gone. Especially well done to those who picked up Potter's hint in the press conference about Ali-J.
Just three games left, only members of the top ten can now win. However, [MENTION=5194]NEASTGULL[/MENTION] & [MENTION=14065]origigull[/MENTION] must be seen as massive favourites. That said, it's going to be tough picking this week!

How to play:
As per usual, you just need to select Potter’s starting 11 alongside his starting formation.
1 point - Correctly selected player
3 points - Correctly selected defensive formation
11 points - Bonus if you correctly select the whole team and formation.
25 points is your top score, just like in F1.
Competition closes just before the official team release (1hr before K.O.).
It's easy!
So . . . . . .
This is written pre-press conference so there are still question marks over Veltman & Lallana who would both normally make the starting 11. There are no question marks around Dunk, Maupay, March, Lamptey & Andone who won't be playing.
We fear Traore but the hammers are scared witless of Izquierdo, will he start?
Is it time for Connolly or Zeqiri to replace the suspended Maupay?
Will Potter keep a back 3, despite his lack of defensive options?
Jahanbakhsh has been defending Dunk, will that get him another start (hopefully not a wingback)?
With Veltman possibly out, will Moder get back in the side on a flank?
Propper & Alzate will be desperate for game time but who will play in the centre?
Trossard has been a touch subdued recently, maybe Mac Allister will replace him?
Whatever happened to the Lion of Judah? Will he be kept in his cage again?
Will we ever see the stylish Propper start again? If so, will this be the game?
