GW35 Match Day Thread

LightsStillOn

With only 4 GW's left its time to finish with a bang or stumble over the line dragging your team behind you. Only 7 games on so could be a great time to get an advantage if you have a full squad ready to go. Best of luck, may the team selections be kind to everyone!

Thread only started at 5am. I'm disappointed

Only two posts so far? I think a lot of us have had the stuffing knocked out of us.

I took a -8 and have three Spurs players, Kane captain. I expect pain until Monday evening, and probably a lot of pain then as well.

Four point hit to make 10 players, even less if certain clubs continue their rotation policy.

Nasri and Vardy already ruined this week for me. I'm mentally prepared for more awfulness anything better than that will be a nice change!

spock.

Begovic
Bellerin Clyne PVA Fuchs
Milner Firmino(c) KDB
Welbeck Kane Aguero
(Iwobi first sub and almost certain to come on)

Lemlin

I thought I had gone -8 earlier in the week for Darmian, Bolasie and Lukaku to Simpson, Alli and Kane. It turns out I hadn't confirmed Darmian to Simpson.

I've now changed that transfer to Darmian to PVA. Don't expect much this week but he has two home games in the DGW.

Cech
PVA Gabriel Sakho Evans
Alli Mahrez Sanchez KDB
Aguero Kane

Tipsy McSwagger

In a moment of sheer genius I used my free transfer at half time of the merseyside derby to bring in Origi for Lukaku, what a plonker.

km79

only 3 players in Saturday games!

On the back of a 189 (-4) week with BB active, i have 11 players this week. Think Sturridge is my only rotation risk. Some lineups predict Firmino starting as false 9. Although a lad on FFS, Berbinho's forehead (reliably when comes to Liverpool lineups) heard someting about Sturridge maybe starting. Said he would confirm this morning if true.

Don't really have a need to make a FT this week. Was considering Smalling for Alder. But i think i would want Smalling back for their double.

Any credible Liverpool team leaks folks. More interested in their centre halves than up front. Already own Sturridge and qur sera sera.

If Sahko looked like being benched might start Gabriel ahead of him.

Keep an eye on the chap i mentioned above. He usually is quite accurate and says whether he can confirm or is what he just heard.

From what i've read so far a lot of people saying Sakho won't play. But after a cleansheet last game, Wenger might stay with Mert.

Huth or Bellerin? Or both and drop Siggy?

Siggy has been in good goal scoring form lately. 4 in last 6 i think. But i think Leicester keeps a clean sheet today. I'd lean towards the 2 defenders and benching Siggy. Although i usually hate benching attacking players over defenders.

Cartman78

Going with this shower :

Darlow

Lovern Morgan Gabriel

Sanchez Iwobi Alli Firminio

Kane (c) Sturridge Aguero

Have Evans on the bench in the likely event of a no show elsewhere.

Brought Alli and Kane in for a hit for Martial and KDB.....a move that seems to be both risky and conservative at the same time

Cantona's Collars

Mignolet,Williams,Evans,Bellerin.

Sanchez,Alli,De Bruyne,Iwobi

Aguero, Kane(c),Long.

The bare XI with no hits and hoping they all play.

Benimar

Going with:

Mignolet
Sakho, Bellerin, Gabriel
Mahrez, Ozil, Alli, Milner
Kane (c), Aguero, Mitrovic

Sub: Dawson

Already taken a -4 so going to risk the Liverpool lads, Gabriel and Mitrovic. I think the Liverpool lads start, Gabriel doesn't and Mitrovic will get 1 point.

I've decided to not go with Sturridge. I reckon he will start today. It's the games after I considered when making my decision. It could go either way if he doesn't start Thursday and Liverpool don't make El final Sturridge will start every game bar Watford at home maybe. If he does start Thurs and Liverpool make the El final I reckon he will only start the Chelsea game out of the last 3 gws. I still have BB which is a nightmare really as you need to make moves to ensure you have what you feel are 15 starters.

Torricelli

Mignolet
Bellerin Dawson Gabriel Fuchs
KDB Sanchez Mahrez Alli
Aguero Kane(c)

-4 taken. Don't let me down, Harry.

SlickRic

With likely no Sakho, I'll have 11 after 1 transfer. I just don't know whether to start Sakho and risk a 1 pointer, or play Iwobi.

Lloris
Bellerin Daniels VVD Sakho
Alli Mahrez Sanchez
Kane (c) Aguero Defoe

Subs: Robles Iwobi Reid Payet

Iused2likebusts

Ojo Liverpool could be an interesting punt if things go a certain way. He could play in every gw for the rest of the season. I may get him next week.

Aenaes

Darlow
Bellerin Simpson Rose
Mahrez Ozil Alli Sanchez (C)
Pelle Aguero Kane

Bench: Daniels

loadwire

Darlow
Bellerin sakho Simpson
Ojo kdb mahrez Sanchez
Defoe Kane (c) aguero

Gabriel on the bench.

Me too. Could play Huth and Siggy and hedge my bets. Can't see Arsenal keeping a clean sheet away to Sunderland.

I'm completely lost this year, I made two transfers yesterday to ensure I had 11 possible starters, my three Liverpool and Iwobi will be worries.
Then I log in a while ago and see that I have 12, now I have to make a decision

I panicked and transferred Sakho out this morning as there seems to be strong suggestions he won't start. Same for Coutinho. I have Gabriel as well. AND transferring Sakho took me up to a -12, my biggest hit ever.

This week is gonna be decisive. If I can survive it without losing anymore than 25 points in my main private league, I should be okay! Anymore than that and it gets very, very dicey!

Have 4 on the bench my self. Unfortunately none of them are playing.

This Motley Crew:

Mignolet
Bellerin Sakho Gabriel
Sanchez KdB Mahrez Loftus-Cheek
Kane Sturridge Aguero (c)

Robles Payet Ogbonna FMensa

Probably be lucky to get 8 points from that defence but sure what else is new :P

extra gravy

Another hit this week but what the hell

Mig
Bellerin Rose Simpson
Mahrez Sanchez Milner Townsend
Kane Kun Sturridge

GetWithIt

10 players and a lot of rotation risks. Hoping for a low scoring week dominated by captaincy choice (go Kane).

Lining up with
Foster
Bellerin Moreno Clyne
Sanchez(c) Foster Mahrez Iwobi
Sturridge Aguero Kane.

This has disaster written all over it.

I hate captain choices like this!

Mike Ehrmantraut

Starting with -4

Schmeichel
Alderweirld Bellerin Moreno Simpson
Sanchez Alli Firmino
Sturridge Aguero Kane(c)

And Iwobi on the bench

remoteboy

Forster
Moreno Huth Kolarov Bellerin Huth
Sanchez Alli Iwobi
Aguero Kane (c)

Siggy on the bench. First 5-3-2 of the season. Needs must when the devil drives.

Mr.Prodston

Darlow
PVA - Bellerin - Sakho
KDB - Alli - Sanchez - Spacecraft - Coutinho
Studge - Aguero (c)

Gabriel

No Kane and now I'm absolutely terrified about it. I could well fall 150k places this week :pac:

SlickRic

Decided to go -4 with Iwobi to Firmino. Good for today plus it preps me further for GW37.

May god have mercy on my soul.


I feel like Johnny Depp at the end if one of the pirates of the Caribbean films (not sure which one) ... where he gets back on boat even though it's about to be swallowed whole by the sea monster/cracken thing.

I know I'm going down, but boy Jayzus I'm going down swinging.

the incredible pudding

None of my liverpool players are going to play today are they?

F*** it.

I captained Sturridge.

2nd in my league, 30 points behind. I hate early ko captains, and I'm still waiting on spurs to F*ck up.

Time to go big or go home.

FHFC

Aguero starts.

No kdb

spock.

Fuuuuuk sake no KDB

stephenl15

KDB benched. Great

Edit. That's sarcasm

lassykk

So relieved aguero starts.

Think I'll go off the grid till 5pm to save my nerves!

spock.

KDB over Sanchez was the worst decision ive made this season.

I sold KdB for this very reason, so at least I'm vindicated (for now) in that move. Bit scared about today.

lougal88

F**k sake!!

Sorry I captained Aguero now.
With no KdB who's gonna supply him??

Pellegrini said he would go for goals and a clean sheet. It was quite likely that KDB would have started. Still expect him to get 20-30 mins.

spock.

This is going to be one of those stupid 1-0 Iheanacho goal Navas assist games.

I've the bare 11 with KDB so hoping he gets on. Couldn't bring myself to do him to Alli in the anticipation of KDB starting against a ****e Stoke team
