    Pope
    Duffy, Kenny, Otamendi, Mee
    Sterling, Sane, Salah (c), Mahrez
    Firminio, DCL

    Bench: Elliott, Ogbonna, Surman, Kane.

    Sterling and DCL rotation worries but going to bank transfer this week.

    Another GW and another reason I've only 10 playing. I'm not taking a hit to replace the now injured Elliott. Here's hoping Newcastle concede 5 just to ease my annoyance.

    Dunk... Otamendi...Gomez

    Hazard...Salah (c)...Lingard... Sterling... Carroll

    ........DCL..... Lukaku.......

    1 FT used of Sane to Sterling, now for the tears later when the latter is benched and Sane bags a rake of points!
    DDG
    Kenny Gomez Christie
    Hazard(c) Salah Sterling Ricarlison RLC
    Morata Quaner

    Subs: Elliot Kane Masuaku Hunemeir

    Courtois

    Kenny Duffy Otamendi

    Salah Hazard (c) Coutinho Ricky

    Wilson Vardy Lukaku

    Foster RLC Monreal Rangel

    Only 12 available so probably in a rotation danger zone can’t see Coutinho starting after playing the 90 on Tuesday

    DDG
    Christie Mee Duffy
    Salah Hazard(c) Zaha Ricky TPT
    Morata DCL

    Elliott Mbemba Kane Masuaku

    FT banked for next week, but risking another week with no Sterling.

    Nothing official, unfortunately. Only info I got was that Willian and Pedro were likely to start, and Haz had been limping in training, but no official line-up info this time... trying to find out before 2, because I want to captain Haz if he starts.


    This is from the guy on FFs who has had the Chelsea team lineup for last few months
    he even called the azpi rest ........

    Two big green arrows over the last couple of weeks so really don't want to lose traction (again!)

    Courtois
    Long | Duffy | Kenny | Daniels

    Hazard | Richarlison | Salah | Coutinho| Surman

    Morata (C)

    Subs: Elliot Crouch Kane Ogbonna

    The captaincy may change about 50 times between now and 2pm...Daniels may also change into Robertson

    News on Hazard before the deadline would be handy as I’d take a -4 to transfer him out and field 11

    Hoping to keep up my good form recently

    Courtois

    Alonso, Otamendi, Gomez, Kenny

    Ricky; KDB, Sterling, Salah (C)

    Morata, Firmino

    Subs. Krul, Crouch, RLC, Masuaku

    Praying no one gets injured or suspended so the swap from Morata to Kane will be simple

    Also deliberated with Morata or Salah captain. Salah probably the safe choice. May change before 2 though

    Good luck all

    Switching the captaincy to Morata so. In what will already be a poor GW for me I can't afford a not fully fit captain.

    Pickford
    Christensen Robertson Kabasele
    Hazard (C) Salah (VC) Sterling Richarlison Zaha
    Morata Calvert-Lewin

    One playing outfield sub - Naughton - with Kane and Ogbonna benched.

    I do think Hazard will explode any week now, but I am getting very tempted to switch him to De Bruyne admittedly and probably will despite his excellent fixtures if I don't get the returns over this period.

    Probably stupid to captain him in light on the post KM has just put up, but I'd be sick if he starts and I didn't captain him. Hopefully we'll find out more closer to the deadline.

    Huddersfield manager was praising Quaner yesterday:

    "He's the fittest he's been since arriving at the club. He’s full of confidence, a threat offensively and works hard defensively. He’s in very good form."

    While Big Sam said that DCL can't be relied upon for every game as he's still developing.

    They've a track record of predicting teams, getting it wrong and deleting tweets. I've seen it myself on at least 4 occasions, the most recent being 2 weeks ago and it was an hour and 10 mins before kick off so thought it would be fairly reliable. Team was announced ten mins later and they deleted it.

    They might be right, but my opinion of them is they're making educated guesses rather than actually knowing

    Gomes

    Salah Sterling Sane Coutinho Ritchie
    Rooney DCL

    No hits but a few flags.

    In my wisdom I dropped DDG for Lori's (dgw in mind) safe in the knowledge that Elliot was guaranteed to play. First of many disappointments coming this weekend (:(:

    Had planned same for Loris as I’d two transfers but then saw Elliot news - now Mignolet looks to be dropped so confidence in keepers well and truly shot

    Martial back is probably not great news for mata
    Lingard is version to start instead of Ibra so hopefully martial and Rashford rotate with each other
    Only need mata for this game
    He is gone next week either way

    Miki Shaw Ibra Herrera not seen at hotel yet so hopefully mata will start

    @10JoseAlvarez: David Silva did not train today and he is not in Manchester yet. That indicates that tomorrow he will not play against Crystal Palace.
