    AJ in for Ravel at -4. Should work out until I wildcard later in the month.

    United and I both need a hero.




    Now to spend the next number of hours writing an essay

    Sorry but that hero is my key differential.

    Haven't seen him in a team yet. I'm hoping he'll make Mutch difference by the end of the day.

    My main rival used his wildcard and held on to half his team. Definitely fancy my chances now, need a big day from Suarez and quiet one from Ade please! 46 points to make up, starting now...

    Captained lukaku=-O


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    I expect Hull to give them a good game tbh


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    Took a -4 hit this week to get rid of Rooney. But let's see how we roll.

    I'm fielding

    Szczesney
    Fonte Mertesacker Coleman
    Livermore Ozil Yaya Hazard
    Wellbeck Suarez (c) Adebayor


    Playing my wild card just before the next gameweek starts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,297 ✭✭✭Son0vagun


    Top of my league by 22 points, and I'm the only one in the top ten with Suarez as captain. Could be great for me, or could be a disaster. Suarez is due a goal or two after two games of not scoring. Fingers crossed.

    My team.

    Szczesny
    Coleman Evans Gabbidon
    Hazard Eriksen Yaya Whittingham
    Suarez(c) Lukaku Negredo

    Should have 11 starters, bit worried about Evans though, Chester will come in if he doesn't play.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    2-1 Chelsea please, Hazard scoring both.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    John Obi Mikel misses the match because he went to the African player of the year awards on Thursday. Wasnt Yaya Toure at that aswell, being the winner and all?!

    Fack!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Wildcard played, my team for this week:

    Marshall

    Coleman (Yeah, I did it) Terry Mertesacker

    Hazard Silva Eriksen Mutch

    Suarez (C) Negredo Adebayor

    Subs: Mannone, Barkley, Chester, Ward

    I'd have gone for Barkley over Mutch but it seems Mutch has a Mutch better chance of gametime today due to Barkley's injury. Probably the only decision that really had me thinking though.

    Good luck all.

    City aren't playing until tomorrow so that could be the difference. Haven't seen anyone saying Yaya will miss the match.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Yaya may not play, it was a risk bringing him in over Silva. I think its worth it though, he's been incredible recently. I didn't even rate him for the first half of the season.

    Wow v similar to myself only differences being my Lukaku and Oscar to your Ade and Hazard

    Could be the difference alright but considering he was taken off as a precaution over an injury I was surprised he was green flagged last night considering he was in Nigeria or, at most, only flying home. Things dont add up over his green flag for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,297 ✭✭✭Son0vagun


    Hazard down!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,183 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Ditched Eriksen at the last minute and went with Giroud over Ade...a boring 0-0 would be great!

    I'm hearing Ravel Morrison is out for West Ham today (groin apparently). Will confirm team news as soon as we get it.

    Potentially bad news for Ravel owners

    Yeah, suppose he could be rested. Although with City stating that he's fit for the game I am hopefully that he'll start.

    I'm hoping its not a ploy myself.

    City played Wednesday, did Yaya definitely travel to Africa afterwards carrying an injury? Doesn't sound like something that would happen.

    Damn. Ravel and Brady were the standout cheapies this year imo along with Whittingham. I had Brady and Ravel in nice and early but both have proved to be frustrating in the end with constant niggling injuries and very little clear news on how long the injuries would last.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,238 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    The leader in my money league brought in two Palace defenders AND Speroni with his wildcard! He benched them all this week though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 644 ✭✭✭Dice75


    Oscar, why?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,231 ✭✭✭BNMC


    Hazard not getting a sniff, hopefully this game opens up in the second half.

    Hard to know if media outlets are using this years pictures or previous years but they all say something similar
    Upon receiving his award, Toure declared: “I am very proud and very happy to receive this award, but would also like to congratulate my brothers, John Obi Mikel and Didier Drogba.”

    Sounds very much like he was there

    EDIT

    From the CAF website
