    I've rolled the dice something fierce.

    De Gea, Alonso, Blind, Sanchez, Hazard, Alli, King, Zaha, Aguero, Benteke, Negredo (c)

    -8 with 5 DGW players. All out attack played.

    Now. Follow games or phone off till MOTD.

    Probably watch the Cup match so avoiding results could be tricky.

    Robles also dropped !
    3 keepers dropped out of the 8 teams played and boro keeper also their reserve!
    Will be a few keeper less this week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,539 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Llorente starts which is good for siggy

    Also Kingsley has risen from the ashes for a rival


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,144 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    Went with the bench boost in the end:

    Pickford - Heaton
    Valencia - PVA - Alonso - Mawson - Smith
    Zaha - Townsend - Alli - Sigurdsson - King
    Negredo (C) - Aguero - Lukaku

    5 doublers, none of whom play for Utd.

    No hits.

    Retro punt.

    Jak
    Chambers, Gibson, Alonso
    Sanchez, Downing, Alli, Zaha
    Aguero, Lukaku, Benteke (c)

    The last time I captained a big Belgian striker in a DGW it didn't end so well. :eek:

    Looks like a more than decent bench boost.

    Boro look to be playing wing backs alright
    Barragan and friend

    I was really tempted on mine but can't do it with DGW 37 coming up

    Have been away so missed a lot of the pre dgw madness. Have ended up with 5 dgw for a -4. Made a last minute decision to bench boost

    DDG Pickford
    Chambers bavies Robertson Francis bailly
    Sane de roon alli Sanchez zaha
    Benteke(c) kun lukaku

    Bench boost scares me but I don't think I'll see better fixtures for my cheapies, and I've a wildcard to sort out the mess this week will inevitably leave. Hoping for the best anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,369 ✭✭✭the incredible pudding


    Disappointed with the Fabio transfer from a while back, two back to back injuries. Hoping he doesn't play at all this gw now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    A King goal to wipe out all the Boro clean sheets would be sweet.

    Was a case of needs must really.
    I still have TC and WC, and I've identified GW36 as the best time to wildcard, which leaves 37 and this week for BB and TC.
    Found it hard to identify a captain this week, let alone someone worthy of the TC.
    So with my fringe guys having favourable enough fixtures this week I decided to go for BB.

    Chambers starts...4.3, he better deliver something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,539 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Holy moly 3 of the other top 4 in dahat league have captained negredo !

    Yep...same in a couple of my leagues too...seems to be an even spread of Negredo and Rashford captainers.

    Lukaku (C) and Benteke could be mega differentials if they perform at all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 332 ✭✭Adam1100


    Neither of my keepers start...fantastic! Have no subs aswell with Rojo and Bryam out. Team in shambles.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    Double Utd defence everwhere in my leagues.
    Have Bailly but hoping they concede in both, especially against Aguero.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,539 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I'm beginning to think Ibra injury could be a blessing .......wood pr About have only started one game but I'd have captained him anyway
    I'd have no keeper for a start if he had not got injured
    Just need 4 points from de Gea over hopefully 2 games to break even on that transfer

    Some long game week with 5 different game days. This could be a lengthy thread....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,470 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Grant & Randolph both dropped.

    Should have seen Butland coming back but Randolph....

    Adrian to be injured (nothing serious) before the 30 mark is a bit wishful isn't it

    Ughhhhhh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,539 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Person in top of Bohs league has triple captained benteke

    Ughhhhhh
    I said after last weeks game Randolph was at fault for both goals again and would not be suprised if he was dropped


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,929 ✭✭✭kopite386


    Jackupovic​
    Huth, Mawson, PVA
    Brady, Sterling, Alli, Townsend, Erisken
    Lukaku(c), Kane
    Bench: Heaton, McAuley, Barnes, Azplizecuta

    Hoping big Rom goes nuts here and smashes in 2/3 goals


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,338 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    King goal, Pugh assist


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,698 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    King goal, Pugh assist

    Well buggery

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,539 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Made a decision to leave king in my team for rest of season barring injury
    Even DGW 37
    Seriously contemplating sticking with 352 at this rate now

    At least Chambers cleanie goes with a King goal. As perfect as a Boro cleanie going could've gone.
