    Going for Mata as well. Can't see Liverpool going crazy at Arseanl so staying away from SAS. Surely United can't be terrible against Fulham?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    At home against a big side, potential to play better, so far its with Suarez, if i do the Adebayor to Sturridge transfer, he'll get the band.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Daniel Sturridge (Arsenal Home)
    Suarez regardless of the opposition!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,452 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Thinking Mata also, but may leave it with El Pistolero.

    Wayne Rooney (Fulham Home)
    He's not in my team yet but I'll be going with RVP.

    Can't trust any United player for more than 6/7 points. I only have Mata in my team, RVP is a big risk for captaincy, especially when you factor in the fact they play Arsenal on the Wednesday at the Emirates.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 547 ✭✭✭Hackers


    Wayne Rooney (Fulham Home)
    RVP for me. Had a shocker this week with only 38 points so time to take a somewhat calculated gamble!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    Wayne Rooney (Fulham Home)
    If I had him, I'd put it on RVP. Fulham at home...if there's a match where they're gonna actually play good football and score goals, it's this one.

    However, I don't have him so I don't know. Liverpool have a habit of playing better against the better teams but Arsenal are solid defensively so I am quite undecided.

    Gonna take it off suarez for the first time since I brought him in. Rvp to get a hattrick, please.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    I am tempted by Mata but really nervous. The two times I have taken it off Suarez it has really hurt me.

    I am still hurting....but tempted.

    Mata for me. Seems like a good few have brought RVP in... if I did it, I'd either have to either take Yaya out and downgrade him to a 4-5 player, or reshuffle a good number of positions,

    Think the two lads will do a good job against Luis.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,254 ✭✭✭Steven81


    Wayne Rooney (Fulham Home)
    RVP for me, if Suarez scores and does well will be happy with the result


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    I'm surprised how many have Rvp, I'm a bit scared of what he might do now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    As bad as Fulham have been, have United actually put anyone to the sword this year? They don't look capable of doing it.

    Swansea GW1 if you can describe 4-1 as putting a team to the sword. Also Leverkusen 5-0 away in the CL.

    Anyway there can always be a first time....hopefully

    Not sure whether to go with Roo or Suarez, dun have $$ to get in RVP.
    If RVP was unfit Rooney would have played more upfront. Decisions!! Decisions!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,247 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Daniel Sturridge (Arsenal Home)
    I'm fearful of RVP but I'm not going to rip my team apart for one fixture. He plays Arsenal away Wednesday night and then has a blank coming up.

    Fulham are brutal but my slim hope is that United's former coach more than anyone should have the knowledge to try and make his team competitive against them.

    I'm tempted by Yaya....surely going to be a reaction.
    Liverpool Arsenal will both probably settle for a point so can see it being tight and cagey

    Liverpool will not settle for a draw I think. Should they have beaten West Brom, they may have been happy with a point. Cant really afford to drop points at home. In saying that, its still no guarantee Suarez will do some damage. If i knew Negredo was starting, i might be tempted with him but hard to tell.

    I'm considering Yaya also. But very hard to take it off my boy Luis.

    ALWAYS

    Captain

    SUAREZ

    ....Always.

    RVP will probably have a knee explode five minutes in.

    Did a bit of analysis in the General Thread.... always captain Sturridge :D

    Suarez is the man....when Sturridge isn't around (maybe) ;)

    All my attacking players have home fixtures but going with RVP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,679 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Wayne Rooney (Fulham Home)
    I have to give it to RVP this time, I hope he will do some damage.
    Fulham at home is the best fixture possible, if United can't produce there this would be the last time i captained any of their players.

    Have to say all this talk of everyone gettin on RVP for the Fulham match had me worried until i realised nobody in the top six of any of my cash leagues has him (which im winning) - so happy days, captaincy stays with Suarez!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 400 ✭✭Harvey Low Fat Milk


    Juan Mata (Fulham Home)
    I have Benteke, Rooney and Suarez so plenty of viable options. It's on Rooney at the minute until my inevitable panic at 11.25 on Saturday when I switch it back to Luis.

    Bear in mind someone can bring him in in the meantime;)
    If you are well ahead, then you don't have to risk it, but us in the 500k bracket have to make some ground now. RVP gives me some hope in my private leagues.
    RVP price is fixed at this moment, which makes it easier to get rid in blank gameweek and bring him back for double gameweek. Makes perfect sense.

    RVP doesn't particularly trouble me. Two of my most competitive private leagues are the leagues I am worried about. Nobody has RVP in those. Therefore he's no worry to me.

    I don't think they can afford him either. I have 5 million on most of them. I'm on 113 million. They are on 108-109. I've looked at my key competitor's teams and they'd be ripping them apart to bring in a player of his value for one GW.

    I may fall in the global rankings but my private leagues is my bread and butter.
