FPL Player Watch: Internationals, European Competitions and Domestic Cups

Swiper the fox

Andros Townsend is set to start England's big game tonight, will he keep his place at Spurs, what an FPL bargain he could be if he does.

Lukaku has scored twice already for Belgium away to Croatia, still in the first half.

I finally got on board the Andros train last week after all my humming and hawing. Spurs were in the middle of refueling unfortunately and there was an oil leak down the back of the carriage but I'll hold him for a couple of weeks as he played rather well.

The fact that he's starting a vital qualifier for England has to count for something, good news for you surely.

Mr.Prodston

Michu starting for Spain tonight it seems.

Van Persie's got two for the Netherlands already, and it's only half time.

Dzeko's also got two...

Guess who's scored twice for Denmark?? No looking it up now!

:pac: I think Giroud has scored too so he'll be safe enough

tom_k

Can't even think of a single Danish player offhand...

This better be the start of your scoring rout RVP!

Mr.Prodston

Townsend just scored for England - here's hoping I might get a price rise out of him now if nothing else materialises :pac:

tom_k

Red cards for Arnautovic and Jonny Evans too I see.

Can you change it as thread starter?

What do we think, barring injuries tonight will it just be Santi for Rosicky at the weekend or could we see a bit of rotation?

KevIRL

Nope. Won't allow me change unfortunately

Dortmund goal. Ramsey caught in possession.

Dortmund look different class so far

KevIRL

Torres with a Brace for Chelsea in Germany, Giroud with one for Arsenal.

Every time I see Torres get a couple I wonder if the floodgates might be about to open.....

Mr.Prodston

Arsenal 2-1 down. Off comes Ramsey and Nicky B comes on, it's all downhill from here for young Aaron

And Hazard gets his 3rd in 2 games as well

Fukk me Chelsea have some run of fixtures once this weekends game with City is behind them

Newcastle (a)
West Brom (h)
West Ham (a)
Soton (h)
Sunderland (a)
Stoke (a)
Crystal Palace (h)

Swiper the fox

Ramsey was very very poor tonight, I'm not suggesting for a second that he will no longer be first choice in the medium to long term but I can really see him getting the rest he was supposed to have last weekend against Palace instead. Wishful thinking???

I don't think so. He was poor tonight and gave the ball away alot, including for the first goal. I can see him being rested and I have him.

I'll still leave him in my starting 11.

roryc

Perfect, will hold off on Ramsey. If he comes on as a sub and bangs in a hat-trick I'm ordering an assassin.

FutureGuy

New catchy title add!

Good man, should be plenty of interest in the Vidic situation tonight, seems a lot of us are stuck with him and could do with the 6 or more points he should return if he's available for Saturday. Wenger's post match press conference seemed to suggest that he felt a few of his players were tired last night, Ramsey seems the obvious target for this comment, we'll probably see Rosicky again on Saturday along with Arteta and Flamini, Cazorla will get the start leaving the rest to fight it out, dream situation for me is Ozil and Ramsey getting the day off;)
