That's savage planning to field that team with no hits or FH. Nicely done.

I feel Martinez has a high ceiling and could come in with something left field. Goalies this week was just pure punt. Hard to see any CS's from the GK's outside the top teams maybe but we rather 3 outfield players from them.

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, White, Holding, Gabriel, Zinchenko, Odegaard, Partey, Vieira, Saka, Gabriel Jesus, Martinelli

subs: Tierney, Smith Rowe, Nketiah, Kiwior, Trossard, Jorginho, Nelson, Turner, Walters

I was between Johnstone and Martinez. Decided to hedge my bets and go with a Palace defender. Brentford can take plenty of shots so should be some save points for Martinez and maybe even bonus points even if they concede. Whereas if Everton score against Palace, they will probably only have 1 or 2 shots on target so no save points for Johnstone.

Maddison! I forgot Maddison.

Schadenfreude kicking in as a few rivals in leagues forgot that it was a Friday kick off.

Raya

Zinchenko - Trippier - Mee

Martinelli - Saka - Salah (c) - Reed - Billing

Toney - Isak

Konaté on the bench.

Have to say, I'm dreading Ollie Watkins this week.

Pope

Trippier, Zinchenko, Kilman, Alexander-Arnold

Saka, Eze(c), Odegaard, Harrison

Isak, Kane

-4 taken to replace Chilwell with Alexander-Arnold to make potentially 11.

Good luck!

Ace2007

Walcott to score against his old team would be welcomed

Ace2007

A rival who I've given up trying to chase, played FH and has Maddison and Robbo on his bench. I guess he didn't want to have money in the bank

bantee

I'll have to pull the trigger on a -4 tonight or tomorrow on Kane & Odegaard to Watkins & Salah for the midweek games, might be ok until after tomorrows games but Watkins is due to rise later and I only have .1 to spare on these transfers at the moment.

Arsenal cleanie gone... Ramsdale absolute howler

Arsenal CS wipeout instantly

Alcaraz

Arsenal CS gone after 30 seconds

Ffs 🤦‍♂️

Arsenal clean sheet gone already 😀

Time for my midfield trio to shine.

Cartman78

Can Arsenal escape from Alcaraz??

I have Martinelli captained 😬🙈

Walcott 2-0

Must try this again tomorrow

AlmightyCushion

Thank fúck I dumped White at the last minute. I was really expecting Arsenal to keep a clean sheet. Can't believe they are 2-0 down already.

Fitz*

Martinelli (Saka)

1-2

I think it might go to VAR. Ball might have been out of play

Edit: no, all good. Just some camera angle trickery.

COH

Captain points 🥳🥳🥳

AlmightyCushion

Could have done with someone else assisting that. A lot of people have Saka but I went with Odegaard instead.

At least the CS was Gonzo so early. Was always wary of any defenders this GW. I'd have happily went with a 1-1-7-2 formation if I could have.

This game is mental, going to be plenty of goals here before the night is out.

gammygils

Points for everyone

Green&Red

Into the semi final for the Finn harps champions league, first leg this GW, second GW34.

€1,000 for the winner

So it's come down to his

Johnstone + Gabriel +Trippier+ Toney

V

Iversen+Guehi+Martinelli+ Kane.

Big swing to start

yellow for Zinchenko

White header from a Saka corner cleared off line

By Alcaraz. Doing his best to hang onto those BPs!

shmeee

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120505207#Comment_120505207

Even before Martinelli goal, I would have said the bottom 4 anyway. 2 attackers vs 3 defenders in a GW where I think CS will be very very slim.

Mr Crispy

So much for BPs... Alcaraz has been replaced at half time.

shmeee

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120505329#Comment_120505329

He was playing good stuff. Was it the case he was on a yellow? But sure must be 4 Saints players on yellows.

It's a weird one. They've changed formation so must have been tactical.

Ace2007

Say must be odds on that Bazuma will get a yellow before this game is over

Ace2007

3-1

Caleta-Car goal (Bella-Kotchap)

Basically two lads that i've never heard of and doubt anyone has

Fitz*

Jesus is a big differential of mine at the top of a ML. So I'm hopeful of something there.

The thing is, Arsenal have lost their heads. They don't look like they have it to come back, mostly.

Martinelli does though.

White defender fail! I was trying to type the goal scorer and assist but gave up.....

I've a feeling I'm going to need something more from captain Martinelli to keep my head above water 😬😬😬

I'm bang on grey arrow now as it stands. So I'd have taken your hand off for this pre kick off TBH.

Arsenal look dead here now, pure shock! What an odd game. Crazy BGW incoming and this is the start of it.
