Invincible

No transfer this week, going with Aguero as (C).

G1032

Ditto

spock.

Another -4 but whatever:

Foster
Ivanovic Terry Bellerin
Hazard Silva Eriksen Ozil Sterling
Kane Aguero(c)
(Krul PVA Zamora Bertrand)

I'll probably end up playing PVA and benching Sterling

Mr. Guappa

Schlupp IN, Jones OUT

Foster
Terry, Bellerin, Schlupp, PVA
Hazard, Alexis, Eriksen
Giroud, Kane, Aguero

Green, Walters, Wollscheid, Boyd

Last remaining decision is whether to start PVA or Walters?

Lemlin

Foster
PVA Wolly Bellerin
Sanchez Hazard Silva Eriksen
Kane Aguero Sturridge
Myhill, Bertrand, Baird, Cork.

Transfer saved. Hoping Wolly makes it but doubt it.

Erikson or Puncheon is the only decision I have to make.

Or drop PVA, but he had a great fixture if he plays

Any thoughts?

Foster
Dawson Bellrin Ivan
Hazard Ozil Silva Eriksen
Aguero(C) Kane Sturridge

A -4 to get Ivan but that will pay itself off over next few weeks hopefully.

Bit worried about Bellrin as Wenger said he may rotate 2/3 this week.

Menas

I think this could be a big scoring week all right. And will be interesting to see if people who loaded up on Spurs/QPR players will be holding or folding.
Aguero versus Giroud should be interesting too.

No transfer this week as I'm quite happy with my team at the moment.

Looks very good would definitely be holding with that team. Wish I had that defence I had two out injured and three playing away! I'm expecting to have a distinctly average week this week hope not to fall too far!

Foster
Dawson Bellerin PVA
Eriksen Sanchez Hazard Silva
Aguero(C) Sturridge Kane

bench: Myhill, Walters Toure Berty

hopefully PVA starts this time!

Copper_pipe

PVA or Schlupp to start?

It's funny, people who criticise the likes of the Schlupp transfer are the ones who have had someone like Clichy sitting in their team for half the season. Just because a player plays for a poor team doesn't automatically rule him out as being a good prospect.

i've had schlupp in mind since the dgw was announced, although personally i think this week is a bit early, gw33 makes more sense to me, probably to replace Bellerin who has no game that gw and who will likely be losing his place anyway (to a returning Debuchy)

This makes a lot of sense.

Myhill
Ivanovic Terry Bellerin
Hazard Silva Eriksen Puncheon

Subs - Foster McAuley Bruce Boyd

Still unsure of starting Bellerin over McAuley, hopefully it pays off.

Certainly not the right move for everyone but a lot of people would be in a similar position to myself where they have Wolly and maybe another player unlikely to play and nothing in the bank so are very limited on who can be brought in. I am surprised at how many people are bringing him in when they seem to have plenty of other options.

Think a Newcastle defender could be a good shout as a Bellerin replacement too. Their last 6 fixtures are decent. I'll likely do Foster to Ospina then when West Brom's fixtures turn.

Don't fancy Newcastles fixtures up until GW34 their last 5 do look very nice though.

Yeah, my philosophy on transfers at the moment is the value of them with cancellations and DGWs means I treat every transfer like a -4. Not worth a transfer to get on the Schlupp-wagon if you've other decent options like PVA or Wolly. Wolly only missing this week if at all and has good fixtures and a better defence.

The idea of getting him for Bellerin for Arsenals blank onwards appeals though.

extra gravy

Currently going with 4-3-3 with Mané on the bench. Hope it doesn't come back to bite me but expecting a big performance from Chelsea tomorrow. Southampton can barely score against weaker teams so don't fancy their chances against one of the the best defences in the league.

really a lot of options, and then the double gw permutations.....

by the time gw34 rolls around, my squad could be gone from:

Foster
Dawson Bellerin Berty PVA Toure
Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Silva Walters
Aguero Kane Sturridge

to:

Mignolet
Dawson Schlupp Berty PVA Zouma
Sanchez Hazard Oscar Silva Mahrez
Aguero Kane Sturridge

!

And before anyone points it out i know i'm not the only one that goes weeks ahead with my possible permutations

Yeah that's how try to look at it too think of every transfer being a hit see if you still think its worth it. Most only have 11 transfers left wasting 1 or 2, if you end up taking them out again, is a very expensive thing to do. Luckily I have my WC for the dgw so can be a little more liberal in my transfers!

yeah Aguero. i think City could wreak revenge on Burnley for the reverse fixture at the Etihad

jimmii

Sterling for me. When I think a decision is close I tend to favour the more attacking player. No midfielder has had more shots in the box than Sterling in the last four I think we'll see a big score from him at some point.

Aguero was pretty non existant starting alongside Bony. But I can't not captain him haha

Reluctantly Aguero too. Would prefer Sanchez but with so many going Aguero its too big a risk. I have Giroid too so hoping two Arsenal is a big enough differential and play safe on the captain. Feeling sheep like now though!

Well we saw what happened last week by not going with the crowd

IsMiseMyself

Defense is a tad shaky this week but ah well. Hoping for some sneaky attacking points! I'm going with:

Forster,
Dawson, Skrtel, Bellerin,
Hazard, Eriksen, Sanchez, Silva,
Kane, Giroud, Aguero (C)

My one transfer for next week is Skrtel to Terry. I've exactly enough in the bank but I didn't want to make another transfer this week. Hopefully the FF Gods will be good to us and it'll be a nice GW.

Yeah sure did! Luckily I was huddled up in the warmth of Harry! Ooih it was lovely!

tmc86

I want to captain Silva but my its looking like a safer call with Aguero

Cheers, I'm gonna go with Sterling.
It's annoying that he's playing as a wingback but maybe that will change.

stephenl15

I'm starting Naughton (LIV) over Fonte(che) and PVA(AV). Dont wanna go double on Sunderland defence with Panti. Right decision?

Newcastle will have nothing to play for at that stage though which reduces their attractiveness.

Too late now but I'd have started Pva. Play the player with the best chance of pts regardless of whether you are doubling up or not. I'm assuming Pva will start this week.

Hopefully Punch gives me a good start...

...and then I'm onboard the Schlupp train too!

Everyone chasing me in my main league has gone for Aguero as captain. Im also on the Aguero train!

Nobody transferred in Schlupp though

Hoping to extend my 50 point lead at the top!

Green
Terry Lescott Clichy
Hazard Eriksen Silva Phillips
Kane Aguero(c) Giroud

Guzan Downing PvA Cresswell

No transfer for me this week. Left Green in goals by mistake, could be a stroke of luck though.
