    Probably a little early as the last game of GW19 hasn't been played yet but only approx 14 hours between the end of the GW and the start of GW20

    Should be a number of different (C) choices again this week

    VC will just be as important I think with some bound to be rested

    Currently on Sterking but depends on tonight's game

    Currently on KDB but depends if I think he's rotated.

    Otherwise it'll be Ings


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,209 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Probably Vardy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 664 ✭✭✭The wonderfish


    Thinking Mane at this stage but not 100%


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 211 ✭✭ShimSlady


    I would expect Mané to be rested this GW having played the full 90 vs Leicester.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Salah with KDB back up. If I had Sterking then I would go with him.

    I think people read too much into someone playing 90 mins, coming off 20 minutes earlier really doesn't make that much difference. The likes of Rashford, Kane and Vardy have all played similar minutes to Mané in December while Vardy and TAA have played more. Mané has serious energy and is well able to go again this weekend.

    Indeed. Could always come off early if need be.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,860 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Aguero is really tempting now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,399 ✭✭✭✭ThunbergsAreGo


    Sterling, he's a differential now

    Edit: tonight has made me very wary of this

    The 20 minutes usually don't make that much difference in reality, its more of an indicator. Very often, if the manager is planning to rest the player in the next game they will give them the full 90. However, given that you only have 3 substitutions and 11 players, it can only be so much of an indicator.

    Ings transferred in and captained


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,788 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Going with Mane (I think!)

    Liverpool have nearly 3 full days since the Leicester game, and then another 4 full days before they play Sheffield United. I think talk of mass rotation is overstated.

    Think he'll start but might come off around 60 minutes like Salah did

    Salah for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,336 ✭✭✭✭km79


    ****e
    Had made my mind up to captain mane until I started reading here........conisdering Ings now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,928 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    What about captaining TAA or is that madness?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Too many options this week. Will Sterling be rested do we think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,336 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I am now between Vardy and mane....


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


    Switched from Alli to Mane to Vardy and currently on Maupey.....aagghh.

    Have it on Ings but coming back around to Salah the more I think about it

    Vardy for me

    I think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Changed to Mane


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,771 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    KDB for me. Hoping he’s not rested and Sheffield rest a few !

    Think you did this last week but got it right at the last moment.

    I went Abraham and got it wrong.

    This week I had it on Alli until I sold him this morning because of the talk from Jose.

    I’m currently flipping between Vardy and Moura but have it on the former for now.

    Went with Alli then but today is a headwreck trying to second guess manager's rotating.
    Maupey at home to Bournemouth is kind of left field but he's on form and Bournemouth aren't.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 147 ✭✭Ros1234


    Sticking with Salah again

    I think Bournemouth are actually getting it together but I don’t want to confuse you anymore than you are.

    I’m picking opposition more than anything. M

    Don’t have a Watford player to captain against Villa but I do have Moura to captain against Norwich.

    That said I think West Ham attack at home and I can see Leicester bouncing back and Vardy exploiting that space.

    So I’m flipping between those 2.

    I may actually toss a coin, and accept that, so I don’t beat myself up later.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,511 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    Mane

    Back to Vardy. West Ham are woeful at the back and it looks like Pellegrini will be sacked this evening, the players aren't going to try.
    That's my logic for picking Vardy.


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


    KdB. Safe(ish) I guess. Worried he may be playing a bit deep. City will be keen to put things right after a home defeat to Wolves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,336 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Mane

    Also Vardy has currently got 29 goals in 2019. He can be the 7th player to hit 30 in a calendar year with a goal v WH.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Salah
