Sure everyone knows there are matches today

No hit for me this week but also no Salah or no aguero

Current dilemma: start Ogbonna or Depoitre?

Depoitre didn't start last league game so in theory he should start but who knows.

alchemist33 · 13-01-2018 11:17am

Defence all at home today. I expect 0-1 all round.

Don't see West Ham keeping a clean sheet so I'd risk Depoitre (I benched Ogbonna myself)

I have the same dilemma but with Masuaku.

Depoitre started the FA cup game so I’m benching him.

I am going to be surrounded by lingard owners Monday night !
There were a lot with coutinho and looks like they have moved to lingard
One lad has 4.8 ml in the bank and another has 6.1ml
That’s stupid
I’d rathee take a hit and spend it than leave that much on the bench

FutureGuy · 13-01-2018 11:56am

Sitting in a nice place waiting for breakfast and all I can think about is starting Ogbonna (9/5) or Duffy (21/10) for clean sheet. Duffy perhaps a better option due to goal threat?

Gone for the continental breakfast myself, but paid the bit extra for Alonso as well.

2 sausage, 2 bacon, portobello mushroom, egg, Duffy and toast. Side order of Kane captain. Hold the Lanzini, side order of Lingard.

De Gea
Alonso - Otamendi - Duffy
Salah - Son - Lingard - Arnautovic - Sterling
Kane - Firmino
Subs: Rasher, Bacon, Eggs

Iused2likebusts · 13-01-2018 12:53pm

What do people think of Arnie to lingard. It is with the aim to free up funds to do alli to salah next gw. The alternative is to bank and make 2 next week possibly vert to vvd to free up the salah funds.

Cantona's Collars · 13-01-2018 12:55pm

Elliott

Dunk..Otamendi....Gomez

Salah... Hazard...Lingard.... Sterling

Kane... Lukaku (c)....DCL

Adrian...Carroll... Ogbonnah....Kenny.

Mulling over DCL to Depoitre with the late deadline.

I’d bank

Officer999 · 13-01-2018 1:00pm

Unsure of who to start with Ben Mee or Loftus-Cheek. Both yellow flagged. Any advice??

Paully D · 13-01-2018 1:00pm

Pickford
Christensen Ogbonna Kabasele
Hazard Salah Sterling Richarlison Zaha
Kane (C) Morata

Subs: Speroni, Calvert-Lewin, Robertson, Naughton

One more week for Hazard and Morata :rolleyes:

How the **** I still have Kabasele in my team is beyond me too.

Yep, Arnie over Lingard according to all the stats I looked at. Any transfer saved to get back Salah is completely worth it.

It’s probably the game where you’ll get 30 points from them both.

Won't happen. Hazard hasn't got me 30 points since I bought him including captain points. He doesn't seem to be the same player this past two years.

iamanengine · 13-01-2018 1:13pm

Pope
Jones, Stones, VVD, Tompkins
Sterling, Mahrez, Salah, Lingard
Aguero, Kane (c)

Subs: Elliot, Duffy, Ibe, Quaner

Wondering would Duffy be better off brought in than one of the other 4. Happy out with that team after WC though.

Here's to seeing it all blow up in my face disastrously!

Iused2likebusts · 13-01-2018 1:36pm

Banked the transfer. Kane captain
Ryan
Masuka Alonso vert
Alli choupo Arnie sterling
Wilson Kane aguero
If choupo could take the utd cs on Monday that would be lovely.

Love that team. Have thought about 4-5-1 a lot quite recently.

ArmaniJeanss · 13-01-2018 1:54pm

1/1FT (Richarls to Lingard).

Speroni (probably Pope)
Ogbonna, Jones, Mariappa (Chilwell, Kenny).
Sterling, Alli, Mahrez, Arnie, Lingard.
Aguero, Kane(c). (DePoitre).

Kind of feel like I'm just throwing random arrows at this stage hoping one will bullseye. Lack of LPool could be a disaster.

iamanengine · 13-01-2018 1:59pm

Would it be foolish to start Duffy over VVD? Surely Duffy has a far higher chance of CS.

Thanks. Other than Kane, only Aguero in the short term is arguably worth the outlay. Long term probably only Kane so I mixed things up with my WC last week. And Salah also being very captainable helps. Lots of value in midfield and defense this year.

I've started Dunk over Otamendi.

Any word of Chelsea starting team?

Any sign of RLC getting off the bus!

Father Hernandez · 13-01-2018 2:42pm

2 hours mulling over what to do this week, this game really gets a hold of you. Taking a risk and brought in Shaw for Kenny

Mentioned it in the players to watch thread a few weeks ago and he's come in and done well albeit with the Valenica injury/Young suspension. As a United fan and contrary to public opinion I think Mourinho does actually want to see Shaw reach the potential he's capable of and hopeful this transfer can pay off until I play my WC (or after all going well)

Anyway, no hits:

Courtois

Alonso | Otamendi | Shaw

Salah | Sterling | Alli | Sterling | RLC

Firmino | Kane (C)

Subs: Krul, Masuaku, Gomez, Crouch

GL All

Will be refreshing the Huddersfield Twitter page before the deadline to see if Depoitre starts. This is what my life has become.

Arnie spotted on the West Ham coach basically.
