    Can Arsenal keep a clean sheet against City, thinking of leaving Debuchy as sub.
    Can Utd get their act together against a poor defence of QPR.
    Good to have it back after International break :-)

    Expecting red arrows,will play wildcard then and try to make up ground ,i Thought there were Too many injuries and new players this week to set up a team going forward,should be alot clearer after this week


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


    Got off fairly lucky this week with injured players only Ramsey & Costa flagged, have Naismith off the bench if one of them doesn't play. Wish the United game was on today though, waiting to see if Di Maria/Falcao will be a perfect pairing or a disaster :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod


    So I have a dilemma, I'm on my wildcard but I'm stuck between Rooney or Van Persie this week? I dont plan on keeping either long term but given that Falcao has just arrived abd hasn't played much football I think it's too much of a risk given my poor start.

    Thinking of selling Costa for ballotelli mad? wellbeck and bojan my others

    Or ya ya and bojan for ballotelli and siggy
    But trying not to take hits.
    Any advice?

    I brought in Aguero for Sturridge. He's getting very little attention so could be a good differential.

    Front line is Costa, Aguero and Rooney so hopefully points will follow.

    Do we really need 3 threads about a game week? Transfers, captain and general match day? Is'nt one enough?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,725 ✭✭✭kennyb3


    Do we really need people with 3 posts making such dumb comments?

    Ouch ! The guy has a point you know. Captain & transfers could easily be a combined thread

    Yes
    Transfers, captain and general match day? Is'nt one enough?

    The three threads serve kind of unique purposes so while it might seem anal they're all worthwhile in their own rights. The transfers thread will kick off today at 11.31, I don't usually join in till later in the week but it gets quite busy there straight away. The matchday thread will run to 1000 posts of mostly pointless stuff you don't want to be ploughing through if you're looking to tinker with your team. The captain thread just gives us a unique perspective of what our community(sad I know) is thinking, all the other sites do a captain poll and we are sometimes very different results wise.

    End of the day there's more pointless threads here and throughout boards, we like it this way:o

    I have Hazard but have the captain on Rooney:mad:
    Would you see Haz filling his boots? We still don't know who'll take the spotters for Chelsea (or do we?)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,215 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    I've said it before and I'll say it again: there's too many FPL threads in this forum and it's getting worse season on season.

    For captain I'm going Rooney with VC on Ramsey, starting Sterling and would captain him but for fear over him being benched

    Ohh.. I can see problems there. Huge mistake. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    I transferred out Ramsey and adebayor for
    Falcao and Henderson.


    Di Maria, fab, Siggy silva Henderson
    Falcao Aguero Naismith

    One has to lose out but who?

    And who to captain?

    Currently in di Maria as captain with hendo on the bench

    its more to do with my captaincy options. Mario has had a bug so cant see him getting the full 90 and rvp who may not start or could be subbed off early for falcao being my best options. Im assuming hazard is on pens although I know people have mentioned costa could get them. Anyway think Im not going to bother with hazard and toss a coin for mario or rvp.

    are you really happy to play burnley keeper every week? I would not be
    midfield and attack looks really good BUT let's say Costa is not fot this week of aguero another week ......who comes off your bench?????? Moore is the only likely starter
    just noticed you also have a burnley defender!!!!
    you need to downgrade a midfielder or one striker to get more starters or you will end up with 9\10 players some weeks

    Get rid of Manquillo as he won't be a regular starter. Your defence is awful but if change Manquillo to Wilson you could upgrade dummet(who probably won't play) to Taylor. I'd switch Heaton to Krul too but bonus points for being the first person ever to pick him ;)

    I'd go for Mario.
    More likely to get full 90 and looked pretty dangerous in the last match.
    He also has a point to prove after not starting for italy.

    Is Ramsey out
