    Saw that Jamie Jackson headline just in time. (And yes I posted it in another thread before the deadline before I get abuse!)

    Switched from Aguero -> Mendy as captain.

    Rui Patricio
    Mendy (c) TAA Shaw
    Salah Sane Richarlison Jota
    Aguero Firmino Ings

    AWB Cedric Cairney

    Suddenly my bench looks very bare. Hopefully all the Aguero talk is just BS.

    Thankful for 2 FTs next week now, as the Peltier experiment might now be over.

    Hardly worth the effort. He's cheap bench fodder. If he plays occasionally, it's a bonus, but if not, so be it. Better to have a strong first 11 and a sub or two you can rely on. No need for a strong 15 at this time of the season.

    Agreed, it's a fairly bold statement to make without any quotes from Pep to back it up.

    Top 2 in my league have both taken a hit
    They scored 96 and 86 respectively, had 15 starters and no injuries
    Both have aguero and one has Bernardo Silva as well
    Both have mane
    Im struggling to see one transfer never mind 2!!!!!

    Thinking back to bandwagons all I can think of is Mendy for guy in 1st and salah for guy in second ..........

    Lad just behind me on 65 also taken a hit and was also in good shape

    Team 1
    Sanchez Schlupp out mendy Bernardo Silva in

    Team 2
    Pickford Schneiderlin out
    Hart Neves in


    Team 3
    Mee mata out
    Mendy Neves in

    Quite a lot of aguero captains

    I like the team 1 transfers, Sanchez is a shadow of his former self and if B.Silva was to start every game, I'd fancy him to outscore Sanchez.

    Mendy looks like an absolute beast as well

    Foster Peltier AWB Stephens


    Haven't changed the team all week. Was extremely tempted to change the captaincy to Salah given the conjecture surrounding Kun, but I've decided yo trust my instinct this year, compared to other years where I followed the crowd a bit more.

    If Aguero doesn't start he'll be moved out for Auba. Have two transfers this week. I feel after gw1 return of 103 points I can take the risk on Kun starting. If it doesn't work out it's not the end of the world.

    Good luck all :)

    It’s Spam 101.

    Make prediction - any prediction, it doesn’t matter
    If you turn out to be correct you look to have some great insight and gain followers / credibility
    If incorrect, ignore and repeat

    Well I sincerely hope you finish in the top 1k this year - you couldn't pay me enough of these magic wages to waste a Saturday afternoon watching that drivel.

    MOTD will more than suffice!

    Revenge kicking player in front of referee and no card?

    Ref was looking at the ball, would have needed a linesman to spot that kick really.

    Absolute dirge so far, basic skills lacking in a lot of Cardiff players,#5 in particular can’t pass it seems.

    Not watching but Cardiff could be a decent source of home clean sheets against bottom half teams
    When I wildcard I’ll be considering a defender or keeper in a rotation
