0/1 FT.

Pickford.
Mee, Pieters, Alonso(c).
Grosicki, Siggy, Mane, Coutinho.
Aguero, Costa, Lukaku.

(Grant, DeRoon, McAuley, Amat).

Late decision on FT of Coutinho -> Alli, probably leave it in the lap of the 'wake up in time' gods. May change Alonso(c) as well, though like to do this sort of thing once a season. Grosicki in last chance saloon for the 3rd week running.

Not sure who to drop from my front 8

Siggy Mané King Alli Sterling
Llorente Lukaku Costa

King is the obvious choice but he's in such good form right now. Wish I still had my AOA chip. And as for a captain who knows? FFFix says Mané. No chance mate. Been burned before. Thinking Siggy. Or bring in Kun for Costa for a -4 and stick the armband on him.

-4 as usual....

Heaton

Brunt Azpi Vertonghen

Mané (C) Alli Ayew Siggy

Carroll Costa Lukaku

Subs: Foster Barkley Smith Amat

Still not 100% on Brunt ahead of Smith....would be handy if he rediscovered some of his attacking prowess this weekend.

It's all down to Ayew really....yes...I'm that desperate :-)

If I bring in Kun I'll bench sterling but feel like I need City cover as Arsenal have Ospina in nets. Who are you captaining?

Siggy at the moment
Brought in vardy with intention of captaining him but just don't trust him enough
Siggy almost guarantees a minimum of an assist at home and any points always gain him bonus too
He loves bonus and I love him

Jakupovic
Alonso - Robertson - pieters
San(c)hez - mane - alli - siggy
Llorente - lukaku - aguero (vc)

Heaton - mc cauley - fletcher - funes mori

Banked transfer as I want to try get ibra back in and it may require 3 transfers so having 2ft will help. Also want to see if Holgate comes in as cheap replacement for funes mori.

I have King on the bench but I'm not sure who to swap him with.

For me, I'd bench one of your Spurs players - IF Spurs don't score, you've (maybe) 4 points between 2 players (6 if Spurs keep a cleanie, assuming no yellow cards). I generally avoid doubling up on attackers or defenders from the same club to avoid scenarios like that.

I went with my gut and swapped king for llorente plus there was some chatter on FFS about his fitness.. I hope he doesn't April fool me

Pickford
Alonso Davies Pieters
Sanchez Mane(c) Pedro Siggy King
Aguero Lukaku

Heaton Llorente Holgate Pva

Mane gets the armband, it could have been any number of them.
Heaton gets a well earned rest, and Llorente drops to the bench.
Always nervy of having captain playing in the early game, not out of superstition, more that if he doesn't score, the nerves are frayed for the rest of the weekend

I hear what you're saying but I can't decide who to bench. They seem to take it in turns to out perform each other
