Should be an OG with Silva assist at the very least.

Ideally Silva goal with Yaya assist for me given my dismal week so far.

Just think it's mad the site has it as Yaya(G) Navas (A), Livescore has the same but normally if there's ambiguity FPL goes different than the aps. (has no assistant until it is clear)

Hopefully Aguero gets at least last half hour but worst case scenario last 20 mins!

Silva has the armband this week... It's a bloody outrage, Ted!

Does anyone know what the protocol is here? Is there an official FA record of the game that effectively acts as adjudication on first scorer bets (and other important things like FF head to heads for people who need Silva points to win their first game ?

They have a quick call after the game with FIFA to check who's in Blatter's team and adjust the points accordingly. Hopefully Sepp doesn't have Yaya

Yaya back to his £8.5m price tag. For what I remember that was his cost 2 seasons ago... May history repeat itself ?

Though, as for tonight, I bloody hope the #justiceforSilva thing has some chance to succeed...

spock.

It's very rare that goalscorers are changed.
Assists maybe (Sturridge :rolleyes:)
I don't think it will be changed from Yaya(Navas)

with city purring like this and facing chelsea next I should be nervous to play Ivan........but José is gonna park a MASSIVE bus now

He'll sit back and hit them on the counter like they did two seasons back. 1-0 with Ivanovic scoring would be great again.

Silva claiming the goal, OPTA awards to Yaya though

Invincible

McClean only got 45 mins, someone mentioned him earlier as a possible target.

km79

forgotten how good Rickie Lambert was from free kicks
could be an interesting option in a few weeks

Berahino is certainly a threat

Invincible

So the 4th official asked Silva at halftime if he got a touch or not leading up to first goal, he say YES :-)

I'd still say it's unlikely enough he will get it now though.

At least Silva is on our side so.

He probably has him self selected in his FF Team.



Are Premiership players allowed to play FF.

Incredible header from Kompany, fantastic goal.

Got rid of Silva and Kompany for Aguero

Sterling plays 60. Yay
