Coutinho is a serious doubt.

gammygils

According to some sources. But others reckon he's a deffo start.
Apparently was available midweek but rested. Games on Sunday.


Anyways have Ayew 1st sub

Butland
Toby Gabriel Berty

Henney Moses Ward Daniels

Lights On

Another Saturday rolls around and I'm getting ready for another day of disappointment!

Myhill
Smalling, Kolarov, Ake
Alli, Lanzini, KDB, Ozil, Mahrez
Vardy, Lukaku

Thinking about taking a hit to swap Aguero out, he's on the bench at the minute. Costa is tempting me.

Rikand

Gomes
Alder - Moreno - Bellerin - van dijk
Ozil - kdb - Barkley - Mahrez
Vardy - Lukaku

Lemlin

De Gea
Bellerin Kolarov Bertrand
Ozil Coutinho Mahrez KDB
Kane Lukaku Vardy

Nyom to sub in if Coutinho misses out.

dahat

De gea

Moreno Zouma Bellrin Bertie

Ozil Barkley Mahrez KDB

Lukaku Kane

In -4 already so leaving Aguero till next week when he probably play hopefully.

Captain is another hard one, would love to risk a MNF captain.

Necronomicon

Myhill
Smalling Bellerin Moreno
Willian KDB Ozil Mahrez
Vardy Kane Lukaku(c)

Hennessey, Kolarov, Nyom, Wanyama

As an aside, this is the first time in this season I can remember having involvement in every fixture time slot.

FHFC

Myhill (probably selling for Courtois shortly)
Bellerin, Moreno, VVD (Naughton, Souare)
Hazard, Sterling, Mané, Ozil (Mahrez)
Kane, Vardy, Lukaku

Was pretty happy with that till i realised i have 8 of the 11 scout picks. Thats not usually a good omen.

tupenny

What are the chances of Sturridge getting a full game?!
Ozil or lukaku captain, keep changing it ...

Swiper the fox

My decision now is to start one of Mahrez or Kolorov, I'm leaning towards the Algerian Pele, anyone got a strong opinion?

Invincible

.............Cech.............
Bellerin....Zouma....Woolshed
Deulofeu..Ozil...KDB...Mahrez
Lukaku.....Vardy.....Kane.....

Sub's: Myhill,Drinkwater,Evans,Target

Going with Ozil (c)

Well the main source that has probably drove the opinion that he's a big risk to play is Klopp. I doubt mind games are needed against Newcastle.

I'd always go attacker. Can see City conceding and Mahrez looked great last week against United. If Ulloa or Okazaki had of been up to much he could have had an assist. Could have more luck against Swansea.

The thing about mahrez is that his form has dipped recently - he probably won't be on penalties and vardy chases the other.

I seen reference to another record elsewhere. But what is it? Is it the one to break Messi's record? Can't see that happening. Mahrez has 2 goals and an assist in the last 4. Probably should have 3 goals only for the peno. He played well in that game also. As he did against United. Wouldn't say his form has dipped that much.

In terms of points over last four games or whatever the criteria is that they use on the site - it's a lot lower than others.

Jimmy Dunne (Irish lad) scores in 12 consecutive games - which is long time record,

spock.

Mignolet
Bellerin Smalling Bertrand
Coutinho Ozil(c) Mahrez Eriksen Barkley
Lukaku Vardy
(Dawson Souare Aguero)

Hoping Coutinho makes it

We don't get Sky in the US though. And any reference I've seen to the record has been he broke the premier league scoring streak record. Not a record in general.

Ruddy,
Nyom, Bellerin, Bertrand
Mahrez, Barkley, KDB, Ozil

There was top flight football in England for a long time before Sky and the PL but the current PL marketing tends to ignore anything that happened before 1992. In no other country do team and player records not include achievements before a particular date. Its silly and it annoys me and Johnny Giles a bit. But we digress.

Liverpool fans do mention pre-92 the odd time!

We have a lot of the same players!

It's basically:

Ruddy vs. Mignolet
Nyom vs. Smalling
KDB vs. Coutinho
Kane vs. Vardy
Ighalo vs. Eriksen
Lukaku vs. Ozil (captaincies)

It's gonna be very, very close. You've a very impressive team value btw!

I don't disagree. A record is a record and as long as the number of players and goal posts stayed the same size it should stand regardless of commercial changes. It's all business and commerce as far as the premier league see things. So I can see why it's in their interest.

Anyways just read up about Jimmy. Interesting character.

I've dropped a -12 myself. Still have aguero in the team and I might not have a playing keeper lol

Swiper the fox

I was all set to bench Kolorov and play Moreno but I'm having second thoughts, who is the better option according to bookies and ye're opinion???

Inspector Coptoor

Madness to captain Ozil without Sanchez and Cazorla ??

Nope

But against a resurgent Sunderland side with tactical genius big Sam at the helm....

If by madness you mean the sensible pick then yes!

I have a player from 9 of the 10 games this weekend in my starting 11!

Anyone got someone playing in all 10?

Given the fixtures I would imagine most of us have 8. Wouldn't be surprised if there were a 10 out there somewhere.

McCarthy Ward Westwood Aguero

4-4-2 this week thanks to Aguero, no hits. Surprised so many are captaining Ozil considering Sunderland have tightened up hugely since Big Sam came in. Lukaku was the stand out choice for me.

Inspector Coptoor

Hopefully I don't regret captaining Ozilz
But if Ozil, the Ox, Ramsey and Giroud click today, they could fire in a few
