    Thanks Klopparama and El Tel

    What do you think scorpionsting and CSF

    I wouldn’t start Fernandez anyway as they could be without Lascelles and West Ham looked good against Chelsea so I’d fancy them to score.

    I’m not sure about Barnes’ chances of starting for Leicester but if you think he will then start him home to Palace. DCL up against a shaky Spurs could be decent too.

    As for keeper I’d go with the home player Pope. If you don’t fancy double up go with Egan.

    So I’m gonna say start Pope, Egan and DCL as Barnes May not start.

    EDIT: As for captain, Salah would be my call there.

    Yeah, you're right. Annoyingly I have 6.9 to spend on a midfielder which is just shy of Pulisic price. Will continue my search.

    I have punted on Saint Maximin FWIW

    Thanks folks

    Would take the Fernandes news with a pinch of salt too but makes mind up all the same
    That’s the way I was leaning anyway


    I actually held off on making my final transfer (martial ) just in case he got injured in training !

    I'll be starting Bruno but taking the VC off him, and considering upgrading my benchfodder of Ngakia or my assistant manager Guendouzi for - 4.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,034 ✭✭✭COH


    I sincerely hope the Bruno news is BS as I had just used my 2FT :mad:

    Abandoning Auba to Kane, not convinced enough by Spurs.

    Will store 2 for next week and decide on Foden, Mahrez, Greenwood etc in the meantime


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    To play Free Hit or not; that is the question!! Hmmm driving myself mad.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,105 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Egan or Traore?

    I usually favour the attacker because there is more possibility of points. But I think I'm doing with Egan. A lot more clean sheets lately.

    Traore
    Easily

    Antonio is your man.

    I'm thinking Sarr to Antonio

    Do you think he starts?

    I can see that game being a 0-0 at HT and Wolves bringing Traore on at 60 mins to run at the defence with the tired legs and space. It's been a trend lately. It happened in the last Wolves game but Traore didn't get the official assist but was involved in the goal.

    I would still take that against that arsenal defence

    Auba > Greenwood
    Son > Salah
    Saka > Mahrez

    -4


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,778 ✭✭✭Benimar


    WC options:

    Martial and DCL
    Or
    Foden and Rashford.

    Nketiah is my 8th attacker so may not be a reliable starter. Puts me off the Foden option a bit.

    Any views?

    Egan against Aurier?


  • Registered Users Posts: 248 ✭✭student7890


    I was thinking of PEA to Greenwood or even Kane but then saw the

    Current golden boot scores;

    1. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang 19 (holder)
    1. Jamie Vardy 19
    3. Danny Ings 18
    4. Mohamed Salah 17
    5. Sergio Agüero 16
    6. Raúl Jiménez 15
    6. Sadio Mané 15
    8. Anthony Martial 14
    8. Marcus Rashford 14
    10. Tammy Abraham 13

    PEA stays

    Beam me up Scotty.

    That’s a tough one
    Probably Aurier

    I mean you prob bought him for his attacking threat as much as anything else ? And he is a bonus monster
    They were very very poor the last night though ......

    All of that is my thoughts in a nutshell. The bit at the end being the lingering doubt.

    I’d start him
    I would never ever ever have bought him
    But I’d start him if I were you :D

    PEA stays

    I'd be tempted to get Vardy but he's a patchy player. If he scores against Palace he's coming in for PEA.
    Or maybe I should do it now... Nah need to stop trying to be too clever

    To start DCL over either Doherty (vs Arsenal @ H) or Justin (vs Palace @ H)?

    Opinions?

    Spurs were a shambles at the back the other night, DCL can nick something I feel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,711 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Gonna sell Bergwijn since spurs don't seem to respect him

    Over Justin because he is much less of an attacking threat than Doherty.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,821 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Over Justin because he is much less of an attacking threat than Doherty.

    And Wolves have looked so good defensively anyway that the opposition might not even matter, unless Arsenal are on a good day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,814 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    I have punted on Saint Maximin FWIW

    same as, only kdb has better recent form and newcastle in great form plus west ham have lost their last 6 away


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,099 ✭✭✭markc91


    I've taken a -4 and done grealish>pulisic & auba>Rashford

    Team now is
    Henderson (Leno)
    Taa Doherty AWB PVA (Mings)
    KDB Pulisic Bruno (Sarr) (Saka)
    Rashford Ings Jimi

    Not sure whether to go with that or make any other changes. Any thoughts?

    Looks pretty good to me.

    Strong squad.

    Wouldn’t be mad on having a Palace defender going forward myself but I might be in the minority with that one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Already on a -4. With no KdB or Pulisic, contemplating a -8. Any transfer I do is a season changer so for the 6 remaining games.


    McCarthy (Button)

    TAA AWB Alonso Doherty (Hanley inj)

    Salah (c) Fernandes Son Traore (Barnes)

    Rashford DCL (Eddie)


    I’m building towards a bench boost too so will be removing Hanley & Button over the next 6 games.

    I’ve 2.6m in the bank.

    Could change Button for a keeper & play him as McCarthy v City this week which could easily be a rout & 0 pointer.

    Could change Traore or Barnes to Foden

    Could change Hanley to an attacking defender & play instead of Traore

    Or go just do Son to KdB for a -4 ( I can’t keep going without him)

    Would appreciate any guidance here

    They were my moves except for free. Nice team.
