    Debating doubling up on Fonte + Clyne instead of Barkley. Fulham knocked in 4 last weekend though, and I haven't had much luck in the past doubling up. Only Chelsea and Newcastle have shut them out so far this season.

    To start Oscar or Januzaj?

    Cant make a final decision at all,Ramsey being rested would help but can't find any hint of it online.

    Disappointed that Eriksen played the full 90 last night.

    Puts a larger doubt on him starting at the weekend I would assume. Already dropped this week so unsure if I should keep him or not. Ughh


    Absolutely, I was quite certain that he would start on Sunday but now I can't help but to doubt myself, thought he'd either play 60 minutes or 30 last night with Holtby doing the opposite. I've already made a transfer so I won't risk taking a hit on him anyway.
    I saw most of last nights game, Eriksen had a very good cross(assist) for the first goal and soon after he played a sublime ball into Lennons path but he missed a very easy one on one. It's hard to call for Sunday but I think Holtby was poor enough last week, albeit on a winning team.

    This has to be the toughest year yet to get consistant scores.

    I feel my midfield and forward line are competitive but I am not having much luck in the last few gameweeks with the goalkeepers/defense and would appreciate any help more experienced people could give me.

    Given and Whittaker are the obvious weak links however at their price and my bank they don't allow for any good peoples to be direct replacements or any funds to be freed up.

    I have 2 transfers and 0.1 in the bank. Thanks.

    Oscar costs 9 million for a reason. I'd be starting him.

    The only probelms I have are AJ or Ravel and AJ gets the nod again. If Vidic doesn't play then Coleman comes in. Just the captaincy to worry about now....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,260 ✭✭✭shano_88


    Any update on whether Vidic will start this weekend?

    If hes not, Im going to have to take a 4 point hit to get rid. Thinking Rafael.

    I have Terry and Zab and I am going with Terry as he's the home defender.

    My other two defenders are Shaw and Coleman so I have pretty much the same setup as you and I'm going Chelsea, Saints and Everton in defence with City and a second Saints defender on the bench.

    I'd hate to have Boruc and DeGea, I can do without that headache every week.
    For the first one you really have to play the home player(Ivan), he's got just as much chance of scoring against City as anybody and I assume Chelsea are more likely to keep a clean sheet.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 68,628 Mod ✭✭✭✭Grid.


    Bringing in Townsend this round, should do well against Hull.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,843 ✭✭✭larchielads


    thanks for the advice swiper and lemlin but which of de gea and boruc now??:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 329 ✭✭donglen


    Hangeland out, Glen Johnson in (fancied as playing OOP on right side of mid)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts

    probably ddg stoke are struggling to score goals


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,748 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox

    If you've 6m invested in DeGea you absolutely have to play him at home to Stoke, if not look for a good 4.5m keeper who rotates with Boruc and use the balance to beef up elsewhere


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,843 ✭✭✭larchielads


    was thinkin about sellin de gea too so that what i might do after the weekend as ill have 2 transfers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 829 ✭✭✭Ronaldinho


    Any thoughts lads on Hazard for Toure?? I can free up 0.3m by doing the switch. Hazard at 9.0 doesn't look bad value when you look at Ozil (who I also have) at 10.7

    Who will start in central defense for spurs. Is Dawson a doubt now ?

    Rose is still out it seems so it's likely to be the same back 4 as last week, that's Dawson and Chiriches as centre backs.

    Have 2 transfers...Gonna get Boruc in for Mignolet but debating getting rid of Barkley or Ben Arfa. Thinking Lallana or Amalfitano are better bets


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,244 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin

    I'd agree with the others. Play De Gea. Fulham scored 4 the other night so I'd be wary of doubling up on Saints.

    Brady showing up on the FPL with only a 50% chance of olaying, hernia. He has played since the operation though, no? What has happened since?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60 ✭✭Keiweb


    Zabeleta out for me to get Lovren in

    The tweet just said he's a doubt. Aluko is also missing. Bruce has said Hull are missing six or seven for the match.

    Fair enough, thanks. Can't decide whether to start Brady, Vidic (both doubts) or Ward-Prouse (might not start) Have to start one and reasonably happy with the rest of my team.

    Vertongen on the left then ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,072 ✭✭✭carraig2


    Have already done my transfers this week

    thinking of taking a hit straight swap michu for hazard

    have ramires already but would sell him next week

    worried hazard will go up next week and i won't afford him

    no city cover either if anyone can think of an option

    thanks in advance

    Had 1 injury two days ago- Chester (Still in scout picks on FPL, dont know why?)

    Now have vidic, chester, brady and mcgregor...:eek:

    have had 10 players 3 weeks in a row with likes of vidic and zab and hernandez, so looking at Vidic-> johnson for a hit. Johnson is on my 4 week plan to get in anyways. is it worth it?

    If vidic is definetly out Id say ye, as we dont know its a tough one. Im getting rid of vidic next week no matter what. Have been saying for weeks he is not a good way into utd defence even though I have him. He has become very injury prone these last couple of years and utd have 5 cbs to choose from. For 6.0 you would expect him to play atleast 30 league games he has only managed this once in 4 seasons. Ill be going DDG for my utd defensive coverage, even if vidic gets a consistent run of games the likes of the xmas period or important cl weeks his body cant stand up to 3 games in 7 days anymore by the looks of things.
