I did not realise there were games today tills I saw this thread open,hurried off to check team and for now will leave it be,so panic over

ArmaniJeanss

The new 'game closes an hour before kick off' rule will really hit home tonight. I made a nett 30 points on a 'super tuesday' last year over opponents who weren't following team news. In leagues that I won by ~50 points it made a big difference.

the question should be ighalo vs firmino
no idea why you would even be considering benching alli tbh
for what its worth id bench firmino

Still not 100% on Lukaku or Firminio or Ighalo

Have gone with form over fixtures lately and it's paid off so might pop Ighalo back in and bench either Lukaku or Firminio.....worried that my Liverpool-tinted glasses might be clouding my judgement on this one

I'm leaving ozil on the bench will be selling him for next gw. May play Daniels over Morgan or Williams.

Mr.Prodston

I might just roll my transfer for now. It's got to be more useful in the next GW.

De Gea
PVA - Dawson - Souare
Alli - Mahrez - Silva - Payet
Lukaku - Kane - Aguero (c)

Elliot: Arnie - Moreno - Davies

I'm 100% playing PVA for the goal threat, and also as a perverse insurance policy if City blank, and well because I have a serious problem

Of those 3, bench Firmino.

Thinking of doing the whole Match of the day thing although it's a late start of 11:15 and the last time I did this I got 23 points. Carrying over my transfer. Only decision to make is Daniels vs Delaney.
Team
Cech,
Bellerin, Toby, Daniels,
Payet, Alli, Barkley, Mahrez
Kane, Lukaku(VC), Kun(c),
Subs, McCarthy, Delaney, Woolly, Arnie.

Bench a Defender: Bellerin (Southampton H), Simpson (Liverpool H), Cawson (Swansea H), or Delaney (Bournemouth H).

Currently have Cawson on the bench but that might be stupid!!

Torricelli

Courtois
Ward Bellerin Alderweireld
Sanchez Mahrez Alli Payet
Lukaku Aguero Kane

McCarthy Ozil Smith Targett

Am I mad to bench Ozil? I just can't see a better candidate from my front 8.

Undecided on captain, Lukaku is seriously tempting.

I'm benching Ozil too

it's between him and Barkley and I fancy Barkley to do well. Soughampton have tightened up at the back so it could be tight enough (here's hoping LOL)

spock.

Sanchez goal and Ozil blank would be great.

darmian is in United's match day squad
a nice boost!

CSF

I've the same midfield as a lot of you. Sanchez, Payet, Alli, Mahrez and Firmino.

I'm thinking that Firmino playing as an OOP forward, Alli on great (particularly away) form and Mahrez being both without a goal for a while and off penalties that Mahrez may be the one to grace my bench this week.

I've never benched Mahrez to date and have seen many of you slaughtered for doing so, but this week it seems the right choice.

I have Bellerin, Fuchs, Evans, and Delaney and am benching Fuchs

I'm benching him we have the same front 8.

Thoughts on Simpson v Liverpool or going with Janmaat? I never fancy newcastle for a clean sheet though!

Yeah, the clean sheet odds say that Leicester are least likely to keep a cleanie but is that really true? They have been very tight at the back of late and Liverpool (bar the Norwich game) have not been prolific. This is a tough shout. I am edging towards benching Delaney.

There is a serious FSA template front 8 (and midfield 5 in particular) in evidence lately.

So many of the midfields posted here have Mahrez, Ozil/Sanchez, Payet, Firmino, Alli

Most have Agüero, Lukaku and Kane/Ighalo too.

Just slightly outside that mold then with Mahrez, Payet, Silva, Alli and Ozil! It does seem all very standard at the moment.

Smith, Ward, Toby
Alli, Mahrez, Silva, Payet
Kane, Aguero (c), Lukaku.

Ozil is first sub, not sure I'm making the right call there but we'll see.

Yup, I've that template. Sanchez and Kane at the expense of Ozil and Ighalo. Mahrez to be benched I think.

Yeah thats a bold call. Same front 8 as you and I think Mahrez may be somewhat 'due'. Plus I'm not going to risk undoing my recent Lazarus efforts. Playing it safe-ish I think this week and benching Firmino.

Ye there sure is. It's why I was dissapointed with the kdb injury and the sanchez performance in the cup as I was set up to have kdb and sanchez this week .

That seems to happen a lot. When you have a great plan to be a bit different an injury ends up with everyone doing the same. I'd have been hoping Sanchez would have been more of a differential this week too.

T-b0n3

Pretty close to template here too.

DDG
Dier - Dawson - Souaré
Mahrez - Payet - Ali - Sánchez
Aguero (C) - Kane - Lukaku

Henny - Ozil - Smith - Nyom

Did KDB to Sanchez. Rolled over my 2nd transfer.

SantryRed

Can't decide between Wijnaldum and Alli. Alli has had his big away game for the past month already, so I really wanna leave him out, because Everton basically don't know how to defend, so Wijnaldum could do well.

But Alli has consistently burned me all season

siblers

No idea what 2 to bench between Dawson, Daniels, Delaney and Toby. Can see Norwich scoring at home and Bournemouth scoring so prob drop Delaney and Toby. Impossible trying to put logic with defenders this season, cleansheets are a bit of a lottery.

dahat

Bench either Firmino or Mahrez is my dilemma this Gameweek. Likely to be Firmino id say.

Big hopes this week for Sanchez and Payet to give me good returns especially with a - 4 taken.

Aguero (c) all day long for me.

Cantona's Collars

Hennessy

Dawson...Bellerin...Dier

Alli...Sanchez...Payet...Barkely

Kane...Aguero (c)...Lukaku.

Won't have any internet access later so no chance for last minute changes.

Jaggo

Hennessy;
Bellerin, Alder, Dawson;
Firmino, Alli, Barkley, Payet;
Lukaku, Kane, and Aguero (c).

I have deliberately left out my subs as I don't want anyone to know that Sanchez is on the bench. (Please, please Southampton extend your three game clean sheet run)

Stop being silly and play Sanchez !

Sickness bug sweeping through the #NCFC camp. Won't know how much it will affect things until the team news is announced later this evening.

@BenDinnery

Dispense any thoughts of benching Alli.

Ha, don't worry, I will bottle it before the deadline. I won't be able to handle the fear.

Payet(C) anyone? Have Aguero but think Payet could potentially get more points

Bench Ozil or Barkley? I'm torn!

I think Ozil could come back to life tonight, he was rested at the weekend so should be fresh, plus with Sanchez on the team, it'll give him more outlets for potential assists.

Oh interesting, I had benched Toby but will prob start him now.

NabyLadistheman

This strong front 8 is a bleedin nightmare, I am done with it!!! Got burned badly the last time with Alli benched. It's between him & Mahrez this evening
