Happy New Year to all who sail here
Going with Silva as (C), brought in Countino for Brady, playing 5 with Costa/Austin up front,Ings on bench.

The Wild Bunch

Captain Andy Carroll

Start the year off with a differential

Will bring in Sterling for Yaya

Deco99

Kane, siggy, mata, eriksen. Three from four. Drop who?

greedygoblin

Going with Silva (C), Costa (VC). Not prepared to risk Austin again. Once bitten twice shy.

It's got to be one of Eriksen or Kane for me I think. Probably Kane.

FHFC

Went for Sterling last night and now I've a serious urge to captain him.

Green,
Zab, Terry, Hutton
Hazard, Sanchez, Silva, Sterling, Downing
Costa, Austin

Had a dream last night that Chelsea lost 4-0 to Letterkenny Rovers, whatever that means.

Heaton
Zab Clark Terry
Siggy Hazard Yaya(C) Sanchez Downing(VC)
Benteke Austin

Mannone Bony Clyne Moore


Not thrilled about benching Bony or not having any playing defenders if Zab and/or Clark miss out. Silva one point cameo too much to ask for??

The Wild Bunch

Fabianski

Cissokho Dummett Chambers

Yaya (c) Hazard Sterling Lampard

Carroll Costa Van Persie

Benimar

Going with:
Heaton
Azpilicueta, Zabaleta, Baines
Siggy, Silva, Sanchez, Downing, Fabregas
Austin (c), Costa

Subs: Hutton, Kane, N.Taylor

I have a feeling I should start Hutton but don't know who to drop.

Got a big selection dilemma in attack.


Sanchez (sou) Yaya (SUN) Silva (SUN) Hazard (tot) Downing (WBA)
Carroll (WBA) Austin (SWA) Benteke (CRY)


Can't really drop Yaya or Silva home to Sunderland. Which of the remaining players should I drop to the bench? Can anyone help me out?

spock.

I'd bench Downing.

Not expecting many points today. Went Yaya to Silva to catch the price rise so Yaya will probably grab a hat trick now. I'm beyond giving a fook though.

Bony will go next transfer so Kane, Benteke, Jovetic and Carroll get another audition day today.

I have Benteke Austin and Bony. Too light for forward line?

I'd go Zab, Azp, and Ciissokho

Burnely have been finding the odd goal or two lately and Newcastle dont have a manager would sway me to pick a villa def.

Burnley are poor away though

Similar defender question from me

Bertrand (ARS), Azpili (tot), Dummett (BUR), Cresswell (WBA), Wisdom (whu)

Currently have the 3 home players in, but very undecided. Any thoughts out there please ?

I would expect Arsenal to score. Southampton without Schneiderlin and Clyne.
Close enough call but I would go with your big hitter defender Azp.

Newcastle Burnley says to me a 0-0 draw, though I'm struggling to put Heaton or Dummett into my team as I think I have better options.

I don't know what you mean. They all have good enough fixtures this week so I'd be happy enough with that forward line.

Never ever ever ever ever drinking again! Ever!

So tired.

Bony out (I think there is a chance he'll have limited game time today).

Carroll in.

United XI: De Gea, Young, Jones, Smalling, Evans, Shaw, Carrick, Mata, Rooney, van Persie, Falcao #mufclive http://t.co/2Tls9wD7Qw

Lemlin

I know people say Falcao was brutal vs Spurs (I haven't had time to watch the highlights yet) but I'm keeping him in mind for the next GW.

He was showing signs against Newcastle that he'll get goals. I'd say the games are just coming too quick for him at the minute.

iroced

So.... that was an intense tinkering hour on New Year's Day. Just up and I'm drained :pac:.


Eventually got Sterling in for Eriksen (eyeing a Sakho to Kane move next week or the week after next) and changed captaincy from Austin to Silva at 11:30.

I line-up as this

Hart
Zab Terry Yun
Sanchez Hazard Silva (C) Sterling Siggy
Costa Austin (VC)
Elliott ; D. Sakho, Wisdom, Naylor

I know Yun is suspended but he was mainly brought in my team for his nice GWs19-20 home fixtures so I gave him a symbolic start .



HAPPY NEW YEAR to all and may it bring a great GW and 2015 FPL season to you (*).



(*) FHFC... Not that I wish you harm but I'm happy to give you 100 pts as long as I'll get 101 :pac:.

He was fine in first half and Utd were very good for 60mins but Falcao did drop off considerably in 2nd half.
Curious to see how he goes today!

Stoke City XI vs. Man Utd: Begovic; Cameron, Shawcross, Muniesa, Pieters; N'Zonzi, Whelan; Arnautović, Walters, Diouf; Crouch. #SCFC

The Wild Bunch

That's a strong Manchester United XI

Lemlin

What's the story with Huth at Stoke? Is he totally out of favour?

Could be one to keep an eye on for a January move. Pulis might pick him up at WBA or Harry at QPR.

irish_man

Forgot to change my team this week and after the last GW disaster, I'm happy enough. Last week I took a minus 4 to get in Benteke for Ayoze Perez and it cost me in my head to head. The less minus 4s the better. At least I'll have 2 free transfers next GW.

Guzan
Zab Terry Isla

Happy new year all

If 1st sub Siggy burns me again I'm retiring

Copper_pipe

Main Rival has brought in Cissokho and Jovetic, so my idea of the jovetic differential is gone

Hoping he'll get back to his form of a few years ago, hat trick against Chelsea in Supercup comes to mind!
