    Pretty sure he's out judging by the rumoured lineups doing the rounds. Sounds like Can, Lucas, Firmino in for Henderson, Ibe & Lallana (who is our for up to 4 weeks)

    Jordan Rossiter on the bench

    Thanks for that :)

    Not even in the squad.
    I have Francis off the bench with 6 points, a rare good break this year buti always prefer the unknown element of the player on the pitch. Still it means I can properly celebrate a Beteke goal.

    Not feeling confident now as a bellerin owner

    wow. certainly more confident in Tekkers now. Milner shifted out to the right for 'Pool it seems

    Phil McNulty ‏@philmcnulty 4s5 seconds ago Islington, London
    Mertesacker unwell and Koscielny a back problem - so it will be down to Chambers & Gabriel to handle Benteke.

    I'm feeling somewhat hopeful. An Arsenal cleanie would be a huge differential now.

    Balls to that..... Gomez in for Mert so with Saylor's 6 points left to rot on the bench as 3rd sub


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,589 ✭✭✭MarkSRFC21


    Arsenal lineup: cech; Bellerin, Gabriel, chambers, monreal, coquelin, cazorla, ozil, Ramsey, Sanchez, Giroud
    Subs; ospina, Gibbs, debuchy, arteta, flamini, chamberlain, Walcott


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,734 ✭✭✭zarquon


    Good news for Benteke owners so i'm worried. Some key opponents have Kos or Mertesacker so that works out ok. As long as Benteke blanks, this will work out well.

    Looks like Gomez could be a long term keeper, if he is trusted against Arsenal he won't be dropped anytime soon barring a poor performance.

    I would take 6 points for Bellerin right now every day of the week

    Milner pushing on in a 433 no? Lucas and Can sitting.

    I suppose, but I can't see that back four keeping a cleanie unfortunately.

    I would think more Milner taking ibes place, firmino taking lallanas and can and Lucas taking milner and hendersons

    Far more likely to be Lucas sitting, with Milner and Can given some freedom to get forward.


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


    Firmino could be a dark horse tonight.

    I'd say he's playing the same system as the first two games, except with can and Lucas sitting where Milner and hendo were.

    Doubt it. That would mean Coutinho on the right. Milner on the right for his defensive abilities as opposed to Ibe i think

    Normally I would as well, but a live Monday night football is so much better with a few involved, every Arsenal corner or set piece could have given me a little rush as a Mert owner. There will be times tonight when Bellerin will give you a similar buzz, could even hit double figures like all the other players I didn't sign that I considered pre season.:o

    42% own at least one of Koscielny, Mertesacker, Walcott or Henderson

    http://t.co/GW2ex6XHwE

    But who is on those benches?

    Francis, Wilson and Martin no doubt. Just had a luck at my main league and the leader has Azpi to sub in with 7 points. Outrageous good luck rewarding the stupidity to even have Azpi on the bench against West Brom and play Kos against Liverpool instead :mad:


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


    I had a quick scan and there are a decent amount of 1 and 2 pointers as well. If Arsenal concede it's a bad break, if we keep a cleanie then it's a result that Per and Kos miss out

    Thank the Lord for no Arsenal defence this gw

    Used my all out attack so Clyne would be on the bench, it worked out massivly for me though, as it meant i had Wilson on the pitch. I would of been sick if he was benched.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,761 ✭✭✭✭JPA


    Just the third game and Milner going to be pushed wide? I doubt it.

    Liverpool will be 4-3-3 I'd imagine with Lucas holding. Milner and Can will be 'orthodox' midfielders, Coutinho and Firmino wide with Benteke central.
