    Has Lukaku really delivered this season against easier opposition when he topped captain polls?

    Seen this posted earlier.

    HUL(H) - blanked
    CRY(A) - blanked
    STK(H) - 1 goal out of Everton's 4
    FUL(H) - assist
    SUN(H) - blanked
    NOR(H) - assist

    You and Busts going Lukaku captain - two opinions on here that I value.

    **** it. Captaincy changed.

    Hmm, it's us that should take advice from you :D Still undecided, but if I take it off Lukaku now and he runs riot, I'll shoot myself.

    If you had 1 FT, would you ship Mata for Yaya or AJ, or just keep Mata?

    I ditched Mata for Yaya. Expect him to score more over the next 3 games. Mata wasn't taking the frees in the last game if i remember correctly. Don't like him out wide. Was considering AJ but he had one sudden burst of form and then it dried up and his game time was affected. I know they had some blanks but that sort of thing can reset a players form.

    Who to start, Dzeko, Sissoko, Mata or Nolan?

    I would have went with Dezeko.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,264 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Boruc
    Cahill Evra Baines
    Nolan Yaya Lallana Hazard
    Lukaku (c) Sturridge Suarez

    Last minute transfer of Yaya in for Mata. I found some notes I scribbled earlier in the week. "Mata not on frees vs WBA"


    Going into the double next week with 9 DGW players, and I'll bring in a solid DGW keeper next week to make it 10.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,598 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Was going to do a -4 this week and another next week but ended up going -8 this week or I wud not have been able to afford next weeks transfer !
    Vlaar, Adam and RVP out (may regret the RVP one short term but really I stuck with him only for gw29 which was not good)
    Zabaletta , Yaya (first time this season ) and lukaku in. Also captained lukaku ......could be a pivotal week !
    Stuck with ade till next week . Planning sturridge in


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    Looks like everyone brought in Lukaku and captained him this week. Making me nervous that I don't have him :eek: Hopefully he comes through with a 2 pointer :P

    4 transfers. -8 hit taken. Lukaku captain. Johnson, Rooney, Baines and Lukaku in with Mirallas, RVP, Bennett and Ade out.

    A risky maneuver you say? Well I say - No risk, no reward!

    Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

    I have Lukaku but it's more so for the double week. I hope he doesn't do anything this week. So many people will be burned by him. Hoping for Hazard to run amok.

    OOH. No Kolarov will be a kick in the nuts for some.

    I'd keep it for now tbh. I'm back late to you but Hull today could be tougher for City than people think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Yaya playing higher up aswell which is good to see.

    Garcia and Fernandinho holding midfield.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,369 ✭✭✭the incredible pudding


    looks like Bruce's days of starting are gone now with Chester back, right before the DGW too. Bit of an annoying one that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Can see a frustrating day for City, tough game. Very narrow formation, no pace or width without Aguero, Kolarov.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,744 ✭✭✭Fowler87


    No players in this game. Meh

    Can't wait for this Yaya and Dzeko hatrick.
    First time this season I have City players.
    I'm exited.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,855 ✭✭✭The Wild Bunch


    **** OFF PELLEGRINI YOU ABSOLUTE WANKER

    Brought in Kolarov


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


    Have Yaya and Silva in this game. Silva is a big differential and Yaya has become a bit of one in the last few weeks so if they do well I'll have a very good start.

    Nobody to worry about in this match either, I'd rather Dzeko do nothing but his ownership will be very low so will make little difference I hope. City conceding would be good I suppose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,250 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Both rivals have decided to make this competitive for the last few weeks. Luckily, both have brought in Lukaku and captained him so the captaincy is nullified for the three of us this week.

    One took a -4 to bring in Yaya. The other a -8 to bring in him and Gerrard.

    So both now have Yaya and Gerrard ahead of the DGW.

    It would seem that one of the side effects of my cheltenham celebrations last night was putting the armband on Coleman this week. Ah well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,598 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Surprisingly no one at top of my pay leagues has lukaku at all......come on ya big lump :)
