    Yep, I'm going to bank I think. Keeping an eye on Chris Wood at Burnley too for Mounie.

    Drafted into my draft teams. Think he'll get double figures this year

    Willian out. Antonio or Redmond as replacement? Or any other alternatives under 7.5?

    Fabregas if you're feeling punty

    Tough call to pick 3 defenders from these 4(assuming Yoshi and hegazi are not dropped of course )
    Yoshi home to Watford
    Hegazi away to Brighton
    Naughton home to Newcastle
    Mee home to palace


    I like a goal threat so my new signing naughton is currently on bench !
    I could also drop mooy I guess but if he is on pens id me kicking myself if he got one

    Thoughts ?

    Just did KBD to Mkhi. I was planning on bringing Eriksen is but I already have Kane and Bavis.

    I still have one FT left. I'll sleep on it and decide in the AM

    In a similar situation to you, I have Moo y and Ritchie with Dunk on bench, Of those 4 teams, I'd say Watford are most likely to score. I'm tempted to drop Ritchie so I can start Dunk home to WBA

    Yoshi, Hegazi & Mee for me.

    Don't drop Mooy, in good form and if HUD score, he'll be having some part of it I think

    Naughton out for me, can see Swansea conceding.

    WBA could continue to get CS's and Hegazi is a goal threat, Yoshers should get a CS too and Mee just cause Palace have been so poor


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,530 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Chicharito in and captain !
    If kdb does nothing else only avoid the drop tonight I'll be happy !

    Bench Yoshi.
    I got the good side of this SM move in GW2 benching Stephens, well Danillo scored the same.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    I think I'm rolling my FT.
    I've no price pressure on getting Firmino or Morata so Kun and Jesus get a stay.
    Then having seen all the main players I could do three transfers tomorrow for my first hit.

    Have the exact same 4 defenders and at the moment playing all 4 in a 433 at the expense of Tom Carroll.

    I'd be pretty confident of 2 clean sheets out of 4.

    Again similar dilemma. Have Mee Yoshida Naughton Dawson but also Jones.
    Also Mooy and Matt Phillips.

    Which 2 to bench?

    Currently Dawson and Yoshida

    Good man Kevin
    Now some points


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Kompany out gives me no sub defender to cover risk of Hegazi being dropped. Should I do Kompany to Alonso for a hit?

    I also have Tadic who's expected to be dropped by most Soton fans.

    This week may be heading for a disaster!

    I'd say hegazi is safe from McCauley this week
    But where will evans play ?
    That was mainly why I bought naughton even though I won't start him
    I shave yoshida too who I am more afraid of being dropped this week than hegazi
    Next week is a diff story .......


  • Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    McCauley isn't ready yet.

    If Evans is available he'll play alongside Hegazi with Dawson at right back and most likely Nyom at left back with Gibbs not up to speed yet.

    Yeah I think we have at least one more week
    Clean sheet , no mistakes and a goal then maybe longer !

    Hegazi should be ok for one more week but I'd possibly take the hit anyway.
    Alonso is that good.

    It's Evans I'm worried about.

    TP
    "Jonny's had three weeks of non-stop speculation.

    We've had a look at him in training after he played two games in quick succession for Northern Ireland.

    But Dawson and Hegazi have done very well in the four games they've played.

    It was only a mistake that cost us a goal."

    Also have a similar Conumdrum

    Mee, away to palace
    Yoshi, home to Watford
    Hegazi, away to BHA
    Bavies, away to everton
    Yedlin, Swansea away

    Mee and Hegazi I'm keen on based on the quality of their opposition.

    So it's Bavies vs Yoshi really.

    Yoshi is literally my only player with a home fixture this week.

    I could play all 4 but then I'd have to bench Richarlison, and that a double edged sword if Watford score and Yoshi concedes.

    Where does Brunt go?

    The same back 4 could very well start again but if Evans comes back in then that's how I see them line up. Brunt could move back into midfield.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 266 ✭✭mcgooch


    Mee, away to palace

    Burnley play at home to Palace

    I think Evans definitely comes back in. Whether it's a straight swap for Hegazi or via your reshuffle at the expense of Livermore or someone is 50/50 I think.

    Pulis referring to the Hegazi error makes me nervous, and I also have doubts he changes 3 of his 4 defs around when they've been playing well.

    With Tadic being under threat and not much to replace him if that's the case my wildcard could be played soon.
    He really does promise alot but rarely delivers in the fpl sense..

    New to the league. Surely the manager can forgive one mistake. Match winner on his debut too.

    Evans seems to be always carrying an injury or is 50-50 to be available. McCauley at 38 is quite old for a premier league player now and you'd be concerned how he will come back from this injury at that age.

    Yeah I think MaCauley is gonna be out to pasture largely. But Evans is their best CB. How he, Hegazi and Dawson fit in there is gonna be interesting.

    But hasn't Dawson played mostly at right back last season.

    That's why I got Dawson into my team, who's been at RB the last few games? Thought Dawson was the most nailed on from all the West Brom defenders.

    When all fit I'd say the back 4 will be Dawson ,evans, hegazi or McCauley and Gibbs. Pulis will want Dawson playing for his set piece threat.
