  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,429 ✭✭✭✭km79


    drop defoe, play Capoue

    Hmmmmmmmmmmm I'm not mad on Defoe this week . Would like ihenacho but really need to bank
    I may play Capoue but benching a penalty taker ..........ill have to think on this one

    Wenger confirms Cech will return in goal against Hull but says Giroud must be assessed after picking up big toe injury on Tuesday.

    Please not Sanchez up front...

    Brought in iheanacho for gray on a free. Commits me to a wc next week but Im happy enough with that.

    That's effectively an 8 point hit just to have ihenacho in your team for one week........

    Depends on whether or not it was going to cost you 4 to get Aguero in anyway.

    I'd go Milner over Capoue. Milner on pens

    I hear you but not sure if I could bench him again.

    i'm not sure i fancy any Watford player to score against Man U. And if they do it's more likely to be Ighalo or Deeney (despite Capoue's amazing start). With Liverpool's attack up against a JT-less Chelsea defense, a Liverpool pen isn't such a leap of imagination (think Mane vs David Luiz especially). And even though you lost Capoue's points last week, was benching him away to West Ham really a bad decision? I don't think so. Just unlucky he scored as he did

    Wildcard in play...

    Going with this lot:

    Foster

    Vertonghen Valencia Baines

    Firmino Eriksen Carzola Antonio

    Lukaku Iheanacho (C) Benteke

    Went out for a run at lunch time and have now decided to swap Lallana in for Antonio.....Liverpool have a decent run of fixtures, are more cohesive going forward and tbh I can't see Antonio keeping his form up.

    I am also a Liverpool fan but this has nothing to do with it...honest


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 369 ✭✭Jaggo


    Heaton
    Valencia, Evans, Baines,
    Sterling, Antonio, Hazard (vc), Ozil.
    Ibrahimovich, Lukaku (c), Benteke
    Subs: Foster, Capoue, Holebas, Amat.

    Really looking forward to tonight's match. The Liverpool midfield are going to be auditioning for a place in my team (Firmino v Mane) and I am going to keep an eye on Willian who I think is under-rated and is creating a huge number of chances.

    Lamela Cazorla Hazard Barkley

    Adrian, Fer, Terry, Gabriel.

    Go team!

    Willian always one to fly under the radar. If I got cold feet on Hazard or he was injured I know who I'd have in a flash.

    AOA

    Foster
    Morgan Friend
    Capoue Hazard Firmino Sanchez Redmond
    Negredo Ibra(c) Vardy(vc)


    Hopefully my Leicester differentials can start my slow rise back up as I firmly hold onto my WC

    Is Sanchez up front bad as an owner ?
    I hate these Friday games I've no time to look at thugs properly
    I have him but was not going to captain him ?

    Hopefully Perez up top in any case. Sanchez has 4 goals and 2 assists in 4 matches v Hull

    Oh YOWL I was not aware of that stat !
    And it does often go like that as Costa showed vs Swansea
    Think I'll go with him now !

    Going with my AOA this week.

    Foster

    Shaw Stones

    Capoue Firmino Sanchez Hazard Redmond

    Vardy Costa Iheanacho (C)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,657 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Using AOA. Useless chip.

    No transfers.

    Foster
    Williams Valencia
    Lamela Ozil Antonio Hazard Sterling
    Lukaku Diomande Ibra

    Subs: Mee Friend Amat

    Still have a nagging feeling that I want a Liverpool mid. But need to hold the transfer for Kun next week.

    Was oddly tempted to use all out attack as well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    Jaku
    Valencia, Baines, Mcauley
    Hazard, Sterling, Antonio, Cazorla
    Kane, Zlatan, Benteke

    Foster, Capoue, Collins, Amat

    Couple of headaches in defence but went with Jaku for save points and Mcauley for goal threat. Collins has been an awful transfer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,429 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Going to trust my WC team BUT worried about Barkley and also bit excited about playing Defoe
    Should I go 352 and play Capoue for the First time ........

    With Capoue playing Man utd, is it the best week to use AOA? I considered it with Snodgrass and Cap in my team, but there will be weeks in the next four where they both have much better fixtures than this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    Rolling my FT.

    Pickford
    Stones Valencia Kingsley
    San(c)hez Lamela Puncheon Bolasie Firmino
    Zlatan(vc) Lukaku

    Manone Diomande Friend Francis

    My other defenders are Kingsley (sou), Francis (mci), and Souare (injured). I fancy Capoue's chances of outscoring Kingsley and I'm planning to promote Capoue from 5th to 4th mid after this week. So I'll have someone useless like De Roon or Carrick for a few weeks at least

    Wildcard active.

    Foster
    Evans Amat Friend
    Hazard Sterling Sanchez Lamela
    Costa Ibra Benteke

    Pickford, Capoue, Kone, Smith

    Still undecided on captain. My defensive options are really week, and I think this is one GW that will expose them. Not expecting many defensive points, but hoping Pulisball can salvage something for me.
