Gameweek 26 Matchday Thread.

Invincible

After the break for cup matches, we're finally back!
Hard to decide on captaincy this week but going with Hazard, banking transfer for next week. Good luck to ye!

The Wild Bunch

Humming and hawing over Aguero or Hazard as captain.

Still no closer to deciding

Smartguy

Is gardos likely to start today with targett available?

The Wild Bunch

Any update on Defoe?

this is purely theoretical unless koeman is lying which he has not done before and also bellerin may be out
but anyway start alderwiereld home to pool
or bellerin away to palace

Copper_pipe

Defoe trained yesterday so I'll leave him in id say

spock.

Clean sheet odds say Bellerin, and he provides more of an attacking threat so I would start him.

Lemlin

Foster
Terry Bellerin PVA
Hazard Sanchez Eriksen Johnson
Aguero Giroud Sturridge
Myhill, Jones, Baird, Cork.

Whatever my own team do, it'd be lovely if Harold Kane could stop scoring for the last GW that I don't have him.

Dr. Bre

hazard captain for me

Same! It's getting harder and harder to justify not having him, but I just can't bring him in now only to bench him next week.

Forster
PvA Terry Bellerin
Haz Silva Sterling Sanchez
Aguero (c) Kane Giroud

Foster Bruce Baird SGB

Would be nice to score highly today because it's my 30th today, but matching my rivals would suffice.

Draft team:

Foster
PvA Rojo Kos
Caz Cout Johnson Oscar (c)
Ideye Gomis Austin

spock.

Just realised I have 10(inc captain) of my team playing today. Only Kane tomorrow. :eek:

Neoulous

After benching Yoshida (6 pts) & Zouma (8 pts) last week for Jones (1 pt) and PvA (1 pt) :rolleyes: ... I'm back again with the dilemma this week.
Currently have Zouma (BUR) Yoshida (LIV) & PvA (WBA) on and Bellerin (cry) & Jones (swa) on the bench. Am I spot on?


Also have a dilemma upfront too this week. Hopefully the blank & DGW will help me sort that out.
Currently have

Cazorla (cry) Sanchez (cry) Silva (NEW) Eriksen (WH) Hazard (BUR){VC}
Aguero (NEW) {C} Kane (WH)

and Austin on the bench (hul)
Again seems the "logical" choice on paper doesn't it?

Actually, just realised my front 7 is 2 Arsenal, 2 City, 2 Spurs & 1 Chelsea. Not very much mixed up ...

Especially the one week he'll be greater than 5% captaincy. If he goes double digits four GWs in a row then fair play to the lad.

ItsChecoTime

Just transferred McShane in for Wisdom as the Hull fans reckon both him and Bruce will start, going to play him ahead of Bellerin as a differential

The Wild Bunch

Gardos a likely starter?

Not sure how I feel about this week. Last minute change to sub bellerin in for PVA after seeing the CS odds. Took a 2 week punt on berahinio.

Neamhshuntasach

Such a head scratcher for the captaincy. Hazard or Aguero.

tmc86

Gone with Aguero captain.

Torn between Foster (Sun A) and Guzan (Stoke H)

Will RVP PLAY??

FFS and some other sources are suggesting Given may start for Villa.

Mr.Prodston

Foster
PVA - Jones - Bellerin
Walcott - Sanchez - Hazard - Mane
Kane - Sturridge - Aguero (c)

Ameobi - Hutton - Coloccini

Rolling my transfer over for better or worse.

I've switched. Hazard captain. Let's see what happens.

I'd say so, he's passed fit and I'd be less surprised if Falcao was to be dropped/benched.

Why are so many picking Bellerin, when he's injured?

He's been a doubt this week but trained yesterday. If he starts he starts if he doesn't it's not likely he'll play. That's why I'm playing him anyway and seems rather reasonable to me.

Mint Sauce

Feck it. Dont know if ADM to Yaya went through. Stuck with Wisdom, and captaincy is on Aguero.

Damn laptop kept crashing, and just cant use the FPL and FFFix on tablet as effectively.

Cheers Mr P. In my mind's eye, I could see him getting a run out for the last 10/15 minutes (and maybe a yellow!) so I left him on the bench. Hopefully that decision won't come back to bite me!

There's a risk alright but I've got Jones doubtful too (as in whether he'll replace Smalling or not). Hutton and Coloccini on my bench so said I'd chance it. Arsenal are more than capable of conceding a few to Palace anyway so I won't worry too much :pac:

Tbh with the attacking options arsenal have and the players they have to leave on the bench I could only see them making a defensive switch in the case of an injury.

WHERE'S THE FUN IN THAT??!!! No point in playing the game unless you're going to worry over decisions and their potential outcomes like there's no tomorrow

No transfers for me this week. Suffice to say, I need a big week from City.

Good to be back:D


Hopefully Hazard does the business.

2 lads chasing me have brought in and captained Costa ...

You have 6 not playing next week, looks very good other than that

Lemlin

A lad ten points ahead of me brought in Costa on a -4 and now has Terry, Costa, Hazard, Kane, Eriksen, Wisdom and Dummett (injured for next week). As well as that he has Clichy and Barkley who are by no means guaranteed to play.

Should have checked the fixtures!

I am very worried that people who bought Costa blindly this week may garner so many points if they captain him that it will more than cover the cost of an extra transfer next week......

Lucas Hood

Can't understand why they don't move the deadline to like 2pm when there is no early kick offs.

I also have 2 FT:D

-4 will get me full 11 team.
Could be worse.

He has seven players at least missing and another two may not play. He's looking at more than a -4 to get 11 on the pitch!

Could well happen but in the long run its likely to be a bad idea for most teams.

Dummet makes 7, throw in an injury or suspension and you are looking at - 12 or 10 playing, might work out for you, have 4 definitely myself and baird makes 5 probably with 2 ft
