GW9 Match Day Thread

Big Borg

This has the potential to be an important week. Great matchups.

ScummyMan

Captain call absolutely vital this week I think, lots of ways people could go with it. Kun home to Southampton, Sanchez home to Boro, Payet home to Sunderland, any of the Liverpool boys home to West Brom, etc.

Have mine on Kun atm baring a last minute change of heart. Hopefully he might have a bit of a chip on his shoulder after being dropped midweek, coupled with a Europa League hangover for Southampton.

I'm normally pretty conservative but putting the captaincy on Theo felt great. COME ON FEO!!

2nd Row Donkey

Also on Wal(c)ott


Kun and Benteke owe me big time from last week.

used my FT to being in Ozil for Son. Confident that Ozil will do well but worried I jumped the gun letting Son go.

I start on -4.

If I get the Spurs lineup in time and Son is up front, I'm very tempted to captain him..

Debut for my midfield triple up and I've just read a stat that Liverpool have only won 14% of their games against Tony Pulis. Still really looking forward to this gameweek - have a feeling we are going to see some big scores!

Torn between Son, Allen and Deeney. Form over fixtures but Allen has both. However my policy is to play my most expensive players always. They're a higher price for a reason.

I just don't see Son or Deeney getting a haul today but I expect Joe 90 to deliver against an awful Hull.
Guess I'll toss a coin on who to bench and put Allen down as the edge.

Go big or go home. Cmon the pool.
Only took a conservative - 8 could have been a - 56 going on past two weeks!

Not a fan of Walcott but he's in form. Very strong front 7

Rolled the transfer, everything bar Valencia & Foster looks good enough on paper... 2FTs going into next week.

Walker - Holebas - Lovren

Tadic - Sanchez - Snodgrass - Firmino

Aguero (C) - Benteke - Lukaku

(Foster, Capoue, McAuley, Amat)

Genuinely worried about this GW

Mr.Prodston

Pickford
Holebas - Amat - Williams
Sanchez - Theo - Antonio - Firminho
Lukaku - Benteke - Aguero (c)

Mandanda: Capoue - Kone - Evans

My defence is a mess but a 0-0 between Swansea and Watford would hit the spot.

I can't really choose between Theo or Sanchez so it's Aguero as captain

Paully D

Took a -4 to get Firmino in for Antonio. First time really owning any Liverpool midfielder in the last couple of years so I'm prepared for weeks of frustration followed by a massive haul as soon as I lose patience. :pac:

Foster
Williams Pieters Smith Amat
Sanchez (C) Sterling Firmino
Aguero Lukaku Benteke

Foster over Pickford and Amat over Capoue the two tough decisions.

Father Hernandez

Lads, only reading now. Will Aguero start? Any info before 11.30?

McBain11

Had Sanchez captain all week, and have changed to Firminho at the last minute. Actually think Arsenal could win very handy but for some reason I have a gut feeling Sanchez may get rested. Am I going mad, has the FF drug finally broken my brain!!

It's a gamble, please god I'll be like this watching Liverpool later

Heaton
Koscielny Smith Holebas

Captained Kun last week so expect to get burned this week after taking it off him.

FHFC

Gone to -8 to try and turn the ship around.

May not pay off this week so I'm prepared for more pain.

I am captaining Payet.

Karius
Fuchs, Holebas, Cameron
Sanchez, Payet(c), Puncheon, Mane
Aguero, Austin, Lukaku

May MOTD have mercy on my soul.

No chance he'll be rested I'd say. EFL during the week so will have a rest then.

McBain11

Ya, no doubt Sanchez won't play the EFL cup or whatever it's called during the week. Still have a sneaky feeling he could start on the bench today though. It's exactly the kind of move Wenger would pull just as Arsenal are beginning to fly.

Either way I'm happy enough with Firminho captain, it's just that so many will have Sanchez captain that if he bags a hat trick or something it would then scald me.

Had Sanchez(c) when the game updated but changed yesterday. Hoping for some Aguero(c) differential magic. Also brought Coutinho in over Walcott so I'm definitely not letting my Arsenal support dictate my decisions :pac:

All week long plan was
Ibra to Wilson
Bolasie to firmino for a -4
Cash in bank to upgrade Antonio to a better mid next week
So obviously I did benteke to bony instead
Double up with shaquiri
May god have mercy on my soul

Heaton
Holy Balls, smith , bellerin
Captain Sanchez , antonio, bolasie, shaquiri
Aguero Ibra bony

Maybe this is the week my crazy midfield gets a crazy score
I've lots of differentials anyway

I like that Bony pick people have forgotten about him. He has a great run of fixtures and rarely gets injured.

SlickRic

Fúck.

In my head Spurs were against Palace. Resisted Son for Sterling for -4 because of it.

It may work out, but this has pain all over it.

Looking at that Spurs lineup I'm guessing Eriksen will be in a fairly advanced role?

Holebas is no longer a secret weapon
Lots got him in

Aguero at 58% ownership 17% captaincy top 10k. Please Kun, you Argentine god
