    FH in play for this one, its been a trickier choice than the WC a few GWs ago. For one week only, team is totally unrecognisable, and unless I get a flash of inspiration in my sleep, this is what I am going with...

    Pope

    Long-Walker-Coleman
    -Gudmundsson Zaha DSilva Salah-
    ---Firmino-Jesus(c)-Aubameyang---

    Elliot Robertson Hegazi (not andy)Carroll

    You're sticking with Firm and Aube despite the leaked teamsheets and Wenger speak ? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    At a disadvantage to free hitters, but I feel I'm in better shape than most who like myself have already used the chip. I hope my obsessive planning pays off! :pac:

    -4
    Hennessey
    VVD Bauer Lowton
    Salah Sterling Silva Arnie Zaha
    Jesus(c) Barnes

    Sub: Masuaku

    Currently on
    Butland
    TAA, Coleman, mustafi
    Sane, mane, Salah, Sterling
    Jesus, welbeck, carroll
    Subs: Milo, Tomkins, yedlin

    It will change multiple times in the next 10 hours

    Edit: it's changed 3 times already

    -4

    Dubravka

    Robertson | Mawson | Long

    Salah (C) | Sane | Zaha | Kenedy

    Wood | Aubameyang | Jesus

    Subs: Non existent

    Have made reasonable progress in recent weeks (up to 150K now) but expecting a hammering from the Free Hit brigade today.

    My lead in main money league 50ish points, main rival has FH and TC left versus my BB


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,468 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Like all those not on a FH, I expect to be destroyed. Damage limitation mode for now, but hopefully can be better prepped for 36 and 37 than others. I get to keep my City players for instance.

    (-8)
    No keeper
    Lowton Dummett Tomkins Mustafi
    Salah Sterling Zaha Diame
    Jesus (c) Wood


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,862 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    -8 and keeperless

    Mustafi Lowton Holebas Tomkins
    Zaha Salah Sterling Kenedy
    Wood Jesus(c)

    Could be down to 9 of Holebas doesn't play.


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


    Foster
    Mustafi Mariappa Robertson
    Sterling(c) Sane Gudmunsson
    Jesus Aubameyang Firmino

    -8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,672 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Think I've settled on a FH of

    Butland
    VVD Long Lascelles
    Salah Sterling KDB Arni Zaha
    Jesus(c) Lacazette

    I’ve no FH either so am in similar damage limitation mode
    Would you not think captaining salah is also a necessity?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    I have the bare XI if Tarkowski plays.
    -4 to get Jesus in and have armband on him.

    If ever a chip was designed for Pva it’s this one !
    In for a week and the itch is scratched

    That’s a potentially very fun backline. Could score well.
    Or frustrate the life out of ya !
    Nice team .

    That team he has out is a super team with potential attacking returns from everyone bar butland .

    Ah I know yeah just like the goal threat in my team as Km said. Hoping WBA can nick one like against United under new manager. Ideally I could play him but decided against

    Go big or go home on Free hit !
    Klavan is ideal for ye as he is cheap and will come in if needed

    I’m perrified of this week.
    I need some extremely unlikely heroes

    Haha don't be, like loading up on dgwers and being let down, the same is gonna happen to FHers. How did your FH go earlier this season?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee

    Cech
    PVA Klavan Coleman
    Salah Mane Sterling Sane Zaha
    Jesus(c) Auba

    I'd probably start Lowton and Wood. But I've never had Milo and he has wrecked my head with all those returns so every chance he could bag a hattrick of penalties haha. Lowton the more attacking of the two Burnley

    We had fairly similar teams before I added PVA but have a different capt pick, we’ll either be laughing or crying on Monday

    Gained about 40 pts I think
    Was a good week to olay it due to short term fixture shift

    Don't have the balls to go anyone other than Salah. Would love to go Jesus


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,568 ✭✭✭thewools


    Karius
    Walker, Baines, Mustafi
    Salah, Sterling, Mane, Zaha
    Jesus (C), Lacazette, Tosun
    (Hart, Mbemba, MacArthur, Long)

    I like it.. go FH team


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    Ozil over Mane is very tempting

    Was thinking the same but what has ozil done this season.. F All..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee


    My bench is thin so I need Auba to start, he’s the main niggling doubt in my team but can’t convince myself to go with Laca or Welbeck

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 674 ✭✭✭carnie


    God damn the FH is a bit of a bastid. It's hard to pick a starting team now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 674 ✭✭✭carnie


    Pope
    Coleman, Bellerin, Klavin
    Salah, Mane, Shaqiri, Sterling
    Laca, Barnes, Jesus

    Dubravka, Milo, Lowton, Dummet

    I'm debating Shaq and Milo

    And I should really stop reading stuff on the internet, oh what to do about Firmino.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,602 ✭✭✭patmac


    Need differentials and I am tempted by Ings, Bellerin and PVA

    Karius,(could go Cech yet)
    Coleman, PVA, Bellerin
    Salah, Sterling, Shaqiri, Sane
    Jesus(c), Ings,Tosun
    (Cech,Zaha, Tomkins,Dummett)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    PVA isn't just for a Free Hit, he's for life!!

    FH team:

    Butland (foster)
    Baines klavan pva (lascelles long)
    Salah sterling kdb arnie zaha
    Lacazette jesus (c) (perez)

    Spent a lot if time fiddling with it last night but here we go. Man City asswhupping of Swansea needed.

    Bellerin is a great shout
    Pva is a good shout

    People are losing the run of themselves over Ings . When was the last time he even scored (I am aware he was injured ). Even if you decide to go with him I’d defo start zaha over him .
    Wouldn’t be mad on Tosun either .
    If you are going for someone in that price range at least Perez has a bit of form


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Really dont know what to do about Firmino, so looking at the bench, and who might come on for him, then I see Robertson is not in that leaked team. so far I am at...

    Diamé Tomkins Robertson

    Considering I am doing a 343, its slim pickings.

    :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,214 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Free hit.

    Butland
    Coleman, Monreal, Milner
    Salah, Ramsey, Gundogan, Sterling(c), Zaha

    Subject to change.

    The only bit of good fortune I have had this season is with Everton forwards, played Rooney and Tosun once and they both scored 13 points and hoping for third time lucky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 112 ✭✭Johny Cage


    Baines or PVA? I have Bellerin and Moreno already.
