    probably sign yaya and captain him
    most if my team is away bar green and eriksen
    BUT rooney has an incredible record against villa so will see how he looks today


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,203 ✭✭✭qwabercd


    No Austin? I'll probably be going for him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,837 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Giroud away to Liverpool
    No idea this week

    Would have thought Austin would be prime choice. It is him or Toure for me.

    Same boat here,likely Yaya if I get him.

    Yaya if I bring him in. If I don't then no idea!


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,249 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Rooney away to Villa
    Austin I think.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 651 ✭✭✭AboutaWeekAgo


    Rooney away to Villa
    Austin probably. Watching Liverpool play this bad against United has me thinking of Sanchez as well, he could do some damage if they play this bad next week!

    Van Persie or Austin. Likely Van Persie with Austin vice at the moment.

    RVP awat to Villa
    Once I decide to who to field or drop I'll have an idea. I've put myself in a great position for the games to follow GW 17 as I'm loaded up on quality midfielders and I've got a strong bench. The problem is I have Austin Giroud and Costa up front. I'm considering ditching Costa.

    The only viable midfielder I can drop is Downing and he's at home to Leicester, total cluster ****, but I'm hoping this will put me in a strong position when rotations start happening.

    /end rambling.

    It's between Austin and Yaya. Both Palace and Westbrom are capable of keeping it tight at the back on the road. Of the two teams Palace are far more likely to park the bus. Westbrom will look at this fixture and see it as an opportunity to bag three points and Palace will play for a draw or look to nick a goal on the counter.

    Palace kept a very respectable scoreline against Spurs and United. I think Austin might shading it right now.

    Wayne Rooney has scored 14 times against aston villa.......


  • Registered Users Posts: 973 ✭✭✭internet_user


    Austin at the moment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,982 ✭✭✭G1032


    Rooney away to Villa
    After today I'm probably going to get RVP in and captain him


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,649 ✭✭✭greedygoblin


    Rooney away to Villa
    One of Austin, Eriksen or Yaya (if I bring him in).


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Austin


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,263 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Giroud away to Liverpool
    leaning towards Sanchez at the moment. Austin is tempting but you just know WBA are going to park the bus. Liverpool are a right mess at the moment and i really do fancy Sanchez to score


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,978 ✭✭✭Theboinkmaster


    Don't you start.There's always one every week

    If you're going to do it so early you may as well do right :P

    will you amend to include Austin


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,348 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    RVP awat to Villa
    One of Austin, Eriksen or Yaya (if I bring him in).

    Picked Yaya, but those other 2 make great cases for themselves ;)

    For as bas as liverpool are right now, defensively at home they are quite good - in 8 games at home, they have only conceded 6 goals, compared with 16 goals in 8 away games.

    i'll probably keep the armband on RVP since it worked well this week.

    Im seriously giving thought to captaining harry kane next week at home to burnley. Brought him in 4 weeks ago for a 4.8 bargain, watched the game today he could of had a hat trick very easily. He should be in the poll at least. decent option imo


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,086 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    Rolling the dice on Silva, he will player further up on the pitch and maybe in a striker role.
    Who else have city for this position bar poza?

    Think I'm going to gamble on him this week, nothing obvious in my team with lots of away fixtures, only other would be Downing so worth a punt imo.

    Van Persie


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Rooney away to Villa
    Van Persie

    He's probably a candidate for me, but Uniteds away form......hmmm.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,663 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Giroud away to Liverpool
    Gonna be very interesting this week (or is it next week :P?) as there is no real obvious choice. I just brought in the lovely Sanchez and have it on him at the moment. He's always dangerous and Liverpool look terrible at the back as well as a dodgy Brad Jones in goal. Kane at home to Burnley is also tempting and he is currently my the Vice Captain.

    Yeah I currently have 10 players playing away! Sanchez could be a good shout - seems to do better than Hazard away from home.

    I'll probably bring Silva in, but not sure if he's captaincy material just yet.

    Will Jones keep his spot for Liverpool? Would seriously consider Sanchez if so, Brad Jones is simply awful.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test
