GW35 Matchday Thread. Squeaky bum time, it's getting interesting. 3pm teams in op

Chesty08

9 (-8) from 4 played.

As it stands I've dropped from 30k at beginning of GW34 to 90k now.

Need the slide to halt pronto, running out of ML's too!!

Blind, Alonso, Davies, Sanchez, Alli, Hazard, Aguero (c) to play.

I need at least 50 from that bunch!

iroced

Why was Gabbiadini subbed that early? Just because he wasn't offering enough? Or was he deadly poor or injured?

Can't shake that Tadic peno miss mentally. If I don't turn around this 2nd leg tomorrow I feel it will be one that will accumulate on my list of scars most notably among that Lukaku hattrick at Old Trafford on the last day of the season in the 5-5.

A rival of mine had Yoshida(fouled fro penalty) and Tadic.
I had Jakupovic.
There was a serious swing of fortunes where in the space of few seconds.

Hogey007

16 (-4) from 4. Not too bad. Glad I started lukaku over zaha.

Mike Ehrmantraut

21 from 4, King being a hero yet again. Think thats 64pts from him over the last 8 weeks

Ace2007

clairewithani

Activated wildcard. Kept 3 players. Makes me wonder why I had the other dozen losers.......................:(

20 from 4 including captain Gabbi.
Got Valdes in goal with Jaku on bench - really hope he doesn't play now (thought Jaku would concede and if Valdes played he would pick up more save points)

Busy day for me so I'm trying the MOTD challenge for the first time ever.
A screamer from Brunt in his last week in my team would be so sweet....

That was worth the wait.
I jumped out of my seat when Jaku saved the penalty. What a hero.
The late King goal was nice too.

28(-4) from 4 and up 3k to 16.7k
Aguero(c), Kompany, Bailly, Hazard, Alonso, Kane and Alli to play

Least the fantasy football side of it made it good for you cos otherwise it was probably the worst match of the day in recent years. 4 goals!

tailgunner

Caballero
Alonso, Bailly, Stephens
Alli, Pedro, Sanchez, King
Gabbiadini, Kane, Aguero (c)

Jakupovic, Albrighton, Monreal, Holgate

20 from 3, so a very good start to the wildcard. Pity about Jaku's 14 points on the bench, but I was never going to play him this week.

Warm-up injury ? I don't own him but the missus has him on the bench...

-

28 (-12) from 5. 0.9k down. So far. So good!

Zaha out will be a pleasure! Gabbiadini is a concern. Not sure who else I can afford anyway...
Stephens & King my new heroes!

Rikand

30 from 6 thanks to vardy subbing in for pieters

kopite386

36 from 6 with my main big players playing tomorrow

I'll give Gabby the first double but may shift him out for 37 if he does nothing.

18 points got so far with 2 players having played
with
23 points sitting on the bench between 2 players .

and i was going to play my bench boost this week, arghhh why didnt i

Fowler87

8 playing today including Jesus(c). Could do with at least an 18 pointer from him to keep hold of my mini league lead.

You captained Jesus and you're leading?

Big, big risk but good luck.

I've a feeling today is the day bailly gets a rest and tubazebe starts
There won't be a better game for Mourinho to do it
Can't see Valencia starting either but there is a big cameo risk

I know Swansea have been poor but they are fighting for their lives now. I think he might take a chance on Bailly to play every game from here on in. Or hope that Jones/Smalling might be back before the end of the season if necessary. But I'm a Bailly owner so...

Ughh there goes my blind optimism! Thanks - fingers crossed he's ok.

dsmythy

Lucky I've Fuchs waiting on the bench so. Still can't get over that Jak save. From big chunk of lead clawed back to way behind again ugh.

elefant

31 from 5 is good.

Benteke captain is bad.

Yeah in hindsight it is but my lead is 50+ so the risk is probably worth it. Also my rivals have already captained 1 pointers already so onto a winner already They both have Kane to play yet though.

clairewithani

Five points from 4 players. Need Aguero to come good. Nobody ahead of me has him and as long as Lukaku doesn't run riot Kun could help me stay in contention. If not my season ends today.

spock.

Valencia benched

Bailly, Blind, Rashford, Martial, DDG start

km79

Manchester United XI vs Swansea: De Gea, Young, Bailly, Blind, Shaw, Carrick, Herrera, Rooney, Lingard, Rashford, Martial #MUFC

Not going to lie I was nervous both de Gea and Valencia would miss out
Hope Valencia stays on bench now
Will have to sell next week now too

Lucas Hood

Mata back on bench.

Cartman78

Damian benched....hope he stays there tbh...have Yoshida waiting on the bench

manual_man

C'mon Captain Rashers! The gods of luck owe me after yesterday!

Brought Darmian in on my wildcard. Should have gone Bailly

Bailly will HAVE to miss a game eventually surely .
I was full sure it would be today

spock.

Went with Bailly as my Utd defender in GW33 and he's the only one (except for DDG) to start all 4 games since then so have to be happy with that one.

Fabianski, Ayew, Ki, Mawson, Britton, Llorente, Siggy, Naughton, Fernandez, Kingsley, Carroll

Subs: Nordfeldt, Amat, Olsson, Cork, Fer, Montero, Borja

slimshady007

As a valencia owner i'm really hoping United concede here (preferably to Siggy!) - a lot of DDG, Bailly, Blind owners around me.

Valencia now firmly into my top 5 worst signings of the season alongside benteke, brunt, phillips and stanislas

Cantona's Collars

I kept Rashers,with Valencia not starting today I should have Cedric coming in with 6 points off my bench.

Don't count on it
Valencia could well get a few minutes at the end

Hence my use of the word should.I've gotten used to the 2 minute cameos to count on points from my bench by now.:(

If united are 2 up I can see mikhitaryan and valencia staying on bench and not being risked.
Rooney will probably play 90 as don't think he'll be in involved Thursday so if 2 up I could def see Mata on to get minutes about 60 mins in place of Rashford with rooney going up top.

Hogey007

Valencia on (shaw injured - 8 mins)
