Gameweek 27 - Matchday Thread

Jim Gazebo

67(-4) now. Gundo, Cancelo and Dias to play. A Dias clean sheet out of that lot would do me nicely.

Cresswell coming in for cancelo this week regardless of playing united. I only sold him because of the bench boost in 26 :O

Have a feeling my two Draft players (Cancelo and Mahrez) mightn't start tomorrow.

Rudiger seemed to be nailed on, great value and then the Tuchel Shuffle happens. Nail in the coffin of a poor GW.

57 with 3 City incl captain Dias to play.

shmeee

Just checked my H2H league, playing a lad who is ahead of me by 12 points and he had the following players still in his team:

Justin, VVD, Wilson, Jimi, Douglas, Romeu, Struijk.

But sure PEA, Havertz and Ward-Prowse delivered the goods to win!! I'm can only laugh.

Muahahaha

Im still miffed about Rudiger not starting last night, had bought him a few weeks back and he was delivering consistent returns of 6 points in every match I owned him. Then Mount didnt start as well while a rival has Creswell plus Bamford missing chances, disaster. Currently on 49 with 3 City to play, need captain KdB to haul now to make it back up.

Up to 52 after Cresswell/Lingard. Need something from captain Raheem though, he's a huge differntial for me with so many double City defence around

Frustrating player to own. He needs to play off a proper number 9 in fairness imo.
I am not sure that penalty miss will ever be erased from my memory.
Had KDB TC that week...assist and bonus gone.

If anyone gets the Man City XI right I think they should get a prize. It would be gas if Pep made no changes but I can't see it.

Am I the only eejit that assumed the City game was on tonight?

Checked the fixtures there and my heart sunk when I realised that there's another whole day until the torture of GW27 ends

I did too to be honest. I have missed loads of games this season, since they are all over the place. I never remember when one is on.

Plus side, another days rest for KDB (C)

A HUGE reason for my top 10k form this year has been the transfer deadline reminders from the FPL app which I'd never set up before. In seasons past, you'd miss a couple of deadlines and that'd be your season done.

I'd rather have gotten the disappointment over with tonight

Off to say a Novena that Captain Kevin and differential Foden dodge the bullets tonight and start and hopefully tack up a few points. Stones I can take or leave but wont say no either. Into top 19k before tonight and hoping to crack top 5k again.

I knew it was Wednesday night, but only just found out its a 6pm kick off and not 8pm as I'd assumed.


Edit for clarity. The quote is from yesterday, match is on tonight:)

Muahahaha

Glad you mentioned its on at 6pm because I had just presumed it to be 8. Will be able to watch it now before the CL kick offs afterwards. Though if my captain KdB doesnt start I might just do some cleaning instead

The whole waiting for team news from Man city on match day is a load of stress in itself:o

Cartman78

As long as Gundog (C), Stones and Dias start, play 90 mins and score loads of goals and keep clean sheets I'll be happy

You would think walker will start after resting sunday but Pep doesnt do logic.

Stones, Cancelo, Sterling all rested according to Rockstar.
