Two players who made their Premier League debuts this weekend have also been added to the ranks of PTG. Both players are listed below and were added at around 16:00 GMT on December 1st. The players are subject to the usual 48 hour notice period
Chris Basham – Bolton Wanderers
Miroslav Stoch – Chelsea
It has been bought to our attention that we failed to add Stelios Giannakopoulos of Hull City after he made his Hull debut on the previous weekends matches. The player was re-introduced to PTG at around 16:45 GMT on December 1st and is subject to the usual 48 hour notice period.
After Kasper Schmeichel made a reappearance a couple of weeks ago, we decide to make sure that there were no other players who were in PTG last year who are active or potentially active in this years Premier League. We found one player, Johnathan Grounds who has been on the Middlesbrough bench since he was called back from his loan spell at Norwich. The player was re-introduced to PTG at around 16:45 GMT on December 1st and is subject to the usual 48 hour notice period.
Stelios Giannakopoulos - Hull City
Jonathan Grounds - Middlesbrough

Could you PLEASE update Luke Young of AST???? He's played LB for the last THREE weeks yet he's still a RB / DEF SUB only.
It would be a big help in my (very tough) league
PTG - Luke Young now has LB eligibility

Can Cristiano Ronaldo please be given Goalkeeper eligibility after the Manchester derby last weekend?
PTG - Although it is clear to all that Ronaldo is looking for a future career as a goalkeeper, new eligibility cannot be awarded until he starts a game in that position. Let's see what happens when he comes back from suspension....

I think Kieran Richardson needs to be given CM eligibility, his last two starts were from that position.
PTG - Richardson has had CM eligibility added.

Can I just ask how Dirk Kuyt got awarded the assist for Liverpool's first goal at Ewood Park, he took a swing at the ball and it clearly came off the Blackburn defender to set up Alonso to score for Liverpool hence why Robinson was out of position as he though Kuyt was going to shoot to the left instead it came off the Blackburn defender???
PTG - The video of the Alonso goal has been reviewed a number of times and from different angles to double check, but the ball does not touch the Blackburn defender (Ooijer) at all. Kuyt takes a swing at the ball and basically misses and then in a strange twirl the ball comes off Kuyt to end up at Alonso's feet to score. Therefore Kuyt is awarded the assist for this goal.

Guys, when Juande was still in charge he played David Bentley at right back on at least one occasion (check back to the Hull game for definite), any chance of updating his eligibility?
PTG - Although Bentley did play as a Right Back, he didn't actually start a match at kick-off in that position and therefore eligibility will not be awarded.

I think Luca Modric should be given eligibility to play as a Forward and RM as he seems to play in these positions. Last night against West Ham he played there as a Forward for 90 mins partnering Pavlyuchenko then Bent.
PTG - Modric now has FW eligibility
