skinny gameweek ahoy

points hit? fielding XI? taking a punt on Kilechi Iheanacho? This is where the season starts getting really interesting

Forster
Wolly Rangel Smith Bellerin Alder
Ozil Barkley Siggy
Vardy(C) Aguero(vc)

subs: Elliot Mahrez Alli Kane

-4

Gd'luck

Lemlin

Managed to sneak just about 11 with two transfers so need everyone to play:

Forster
VVD Daniels Alder Simpson
Alli Silva Mahrez
Aguero Kane Vardy

Transfers were Sanchez to Silva and Costs to Kane. Thought about Siggy but City having a DGW swing it.

Plus with Yaya out, Silva might have a bit more free rein because Fernando and Fernandinho are more defensive than Yaya.

Nice team Lemlin. My team is 2 off yours.

Rather than Daniels I have Smith and instead of Alli I got Ayew.

I'm thinking of putting Davies starting rather than Smith tho and have double Spurs and Southampton at the back if he gets the start.

I fancy Ayew to put his dry period to rest anyway or I'd have brought in Wij for a few weeks.

The other 9 are the same. I've stuck with Aguero and Silva as VC.

I didn't need to sell Sanchez and got enough cash that don't care about his price really now. Be careful without him on the run in if you plan for without him. They can get huge numbers when he clicks.

For what it's worth I think firmino will take Ayews spot for most of the run in, Payet is my current 8th.

Good luck this GW for sure.

spock.

Elliot
Daniels Otamendi Fuchs
Siggy Alli Silva Mahrez

Still undecided on Aguero or Kane captain. If Benitez can help Newcastle to a clean sheet in his first game it would be amazing.

Shane732

6th in the boards.ie league now - I've had a good run recently. Would love to break the top 5 but I reckon everyone is going to have a very similar team this week.

FourFourRED

Was totally unprepared for this. Just 6 players available to play.

I have on free transfer so that will bring me up to 7.

People in a similar boat, are you taking the hit or gambling on a couple of -4's in the hope to make gains?

Any advice welcome, I'm gutted haha!

I panicked when I copped the fact i've three each from city, spurs and leicester...... Then I realised they are playing Norwich away, Villa away and Newcastle at home, respectively.

I've a feeling my front six of Mahrez, Alli, Silva, Kane, Kun and Vardy will be a popular one.

Edit : Lemlin already has posted those as his front 6.

hufpc8w3adnk65

Have 11 playing with no hits.
Forster
Kompany Wollschied Simpson
Alli Siggy Mahrez Winjilium
Vardy Aguero Kane

None of my subs have fixtures. At the min the armband is on Kane and Vc on Kun. That could change several times still tho ha ha

T-b0n3

Fabanski
Dier Fuchs A. Smith
Ali Mahrez Siggy Arnie
Vardy Aguero Kane (C)
Cedric on the bench.

Have 12 for this week and banked my to transfer. Gave the armband to Kane and I'm in the airport on route to the ski slopes, so I won't be able to do any last minute changes. COYS

Chesty08

Going into today with no Spurs players' I'm scared!!!

Necronomicon

Did Cedric -> Kompany in the end, so provided Dier shakes off his knock I should have a starting XI with no hits and a transfer rolled:

Forster
Simpson Dier Kompany Williams Daniels
Eriksen Mahrez
Aguero Vardy Kane

Benches are all blank. I'm still mulling over captaincy...it should be auto-Kun, and it currently is, but Kane versus Villa is tempting me.

gimmick

Yaya

Took a hit to bring him in. Only have 9 lining out.

Xaniaj

Have a full team so hoping to make a few points in my work league!

Butland
Toby, Kompany, Huth
Mahrez, Alli, Siggy, Arnie
Kane(c), Aguero, Vardy

Have the fear of not captaining Aguero but going to risk it! Have one playing sub in Smith.

km79

if this week does not see me make gains and move back top of my money league I'm in trouble ! need to get defensive selection spot on as that's where the points can be gained I think
banking the free transfer despite temptation to bring in Silva or just be plain daft and switch smith to Daniels !
forster (Elliot)
alder Fuchs wolly ( smith Williams )
mahrez Arnie siggy alli
aguero (capt) vardy Kane

how's that look?

Kankan14

Toure out so -4 for X1 players.

Boruc

VVD Simpson Dier Kompany
Albrighton Alli Sterling
Aguero Kane Vardy(c)


Only sub is Butland, punting on boruc tho.

Benimar

Have the bare XI:

Lloris
Kompany, Francis, Woolscheid, Simpson
Mahrez, Siggy, Alli
Aguero (c), Kane, Vardy

Used my FT to bring in Siggy. It was between him an Silva, but Siggy has Villa next week and I didn't want 3 from City in case they do, well, a City!

2nd Row Donkey

My 5th MF cheapie - Albrighton to start this weekend. Time to take your chance and shine !

Mr. Guappa

Already regretting my transfer... Bellerin to Janmaat.

Leaves me with 11 hopefully:

Hart
Janmaat VVD Rangel Fuchs Wollscheid
Alli Mahrez
Vardy Kane Aguero

Still undecided on the armband.

Mint Sauce

Had 10, made a transfer, had 11, woke up this morning, back to 10.

Feck it!

PARlance

Just 3 hours until we find out if Matty starts.

Mr.Prodston

Elliot
Fuchs - Morgan - Daniels
Mahrez - Alli - Silva - Arnie - Siggy
Kane - Aguero (c)

0-0 in MNF please. Or Fuchs assisting Morgan and Elliott saving a Vardy penalty. Either way I'm not fussy :pac:

The concern is just how templated the front 7 are coupled without Spurs, Saints, Stoke or Swans defenders

Oh and concern over not captaining Kane.

But apart from that I should have an average of 1 point more than players without 11.

FHFC

5.7% of all teams own Vardy Kane Kun

10.4% if dead teams are removed

So decent greens if they all fire cc: @FantasyFootyFix
____________________________________________

That low a percentage amazes and pleases me.

Butland
Toby , Cedric, Fuchs
Mahrez, Siggy, Arnie, Alli
Aguero, Kane, Vardy


Captain Kane locked in for the hell of it.

Phone going off to fck now. Motd ahoy.

Going to be alot who thought they had 11 not going to, I see dier is a doubt, have 12, 11 if dier does not play but guaranteed there will be rotation or a virus or some reason alot of teams will end up short of players

Paully D

Forster
Dier Williams Fuchs Kompany
Alli Mahrez Silva
Aguero (C) Kane (VC) Vardy

The bare 11 with no substitute playing/fit today. I'm hoping Dier makes it.

It seems like we all have pretty similar front 6/7's this gameweek.

Torricelli

11 including Targett.

Hart
Targett Daniels Alderweireld Huth
Mahrez Siggy Arnautovic
Kane Aguero(c) Vardy

Norwich v City is on SS1 in case anyone gets caught out thinking it's on BT.

Forster,
Alder, Simpson, Daniels, Wollschied,

Kane, Aguero (C)

Bought Siggy in for Ozil as my one transfer. Think that team should be okay. Really just hope Vardy stays quiet. Apart from that, I'm not too fussed. Saw a stat somewhere that said 40% of top 10k teams had an average of 8 starters, so I'm hoping that's actually true across the board and I'm not blindly misquoting a lie. :pac:

Ziegler1988

Fabianski
VVD Fuchs Daniels
Alli Eriksen Mahrez Siggy

No playing subs

Treble Spurs attack which I'm not thrilled about, hopefully Aguero does the business early to get off to a good start

Captain Vardy

**** it

Death or Glory

spock.

Went Kane captain at 11:43
Bony starts so happy with it so far.

spock.

City XI: Hart, Sagna, Kompany, Otamendi, Clichy, Fernando, Fernandinho, Navas, Silva, Aguero, Bony #ncfcvcity #mcfc

Master run-in plan begins today. 9 starters hopefully and no bench. Transfer rolled. Need my captain to outperform Kane today so as not to get a big red arrow. Good luck to all.

7 transfer guy makes no transfers despite having 2 fts and only has 7 players playing. Hard to believe this guy is 400th in the world.

Well if he makes a transfer he won't be 7 transfer guy anymore and maybe he likes the name :P

km79

Only one of top 5 with full team
Only one without a points hit
Only one to captain Aguero
What can possibly go wrong !

He made his first transfer of 2016 last gameweek so he really should be 8 transfer guy now. He is an fsa cult hero so I think we will just roll with 7 transfer guy for the season.

Benimar

Points hits and 8 player teams everywhere (Except the league leader of course!)

If City, Spurs and Leicester win to nil, there will be serious ground made up this week.

Scorpion Sting

Butland
Williams Dier van Dijk Daniels
Siggy Mahrez Alli
Aguero (v) Vardy Kane (c)


Banked my transfer this week. I may not have 11 playing as Dier has a knock which is annoying.

This is key.

SteelyDanJalapeno

Silva been hacked down 3 times already

Paully D

Silva is (rightly) getting frustrated. I can see him kicking out as he had a little nibble already.

km79

No Sterling for the leader .......and he is relying on targett as well
Cmon Ronald do the right thing
