That's why I got Dawson into my team, who's been at RB the last few games? Thought Dawson was the most nailed on from all the West Brom defenders.

Nyom has been.
Dawson is nailed on but it could be CB or RB.
If he's at CB, then Hegazi misses out if Evans returns.

Right been away from the game for a week. Apologies if this has been heavily covered but what's the latest on Willian and Aguero? Are they expected to play?
If they aren't I'm thinking of a Alli - Morata combo with an eye on getting Firmino in in the very near future (I just feel this may be not the best GW to do so, especially for -4).

New to the league. Surely the manager can forgive one mistake. Match winner on his debut too.

Evans seems to be always carrying an injury or is 50-50 to be available. McCauley at 38 is quite old for a premier league player now and you'd be concerned how he will come back from this injury at that age.

Yeah I think MaCauley is gonna be out to pasture largely. But Evans is their best CB. How he, Hegazi and Dawson fit in there is gonna be interesting.

The funny thing is so many managers are now playing 3 centre backs in a 352 but pulis who collects centre backs for fun doesn't !
Imagine him playing 352
He could play 3 centre backs
2 more as wing backs
And one as a holding midfielder
Pulis ball heaven

Got Chicharito for Aguero as a 1 week punt. Probably gonna WC next week anyway...

Chapeau!

Did you know something we didn't? They had conceded 8 in 3 games when you posted that. 4 clean sheets in a row since then.

Figured they were gonna get a bit tighter after getting destroyed by Liverpool, and they'd a good run of games so just took an educated guess, Monreal was the cheapest guaranteed starter. Disappointed i picked Lowton instead of Ward in GW 4 as well, but got 20 points off him so far as well so my defence is saving me this season!

A good lesson in doing what you think will happen rather than focusing on what has just happened.

Are we all going to drag up old threads to settle things?

Possibly, I wouldn't mind having a stern word with 2009 me and Frank Lampard getting points for my rivals, but never me, when I owned him.

Meh, I think it was done and taken in good spirit.

Maybe I'll wander back into the gw5 thread when everyone was dumping Kane and to quote the great Sheldon Copper tell everyone "I told you thusly, ohh I told his thusly"
