The player I'd really love to own is Aubameyang but there is just so much uncertaintiy with his position and playing time its a scarier proposition but for me he is the best striker in the league atm although between the few top guys it'd be splitting hairs I guess

That's what I've done, Aguero out and Auba in. Let Pererya out to pasture and brought in Felipe Anderson as well.

Spurs looked knackered as well yesterday. Not sure how well setup they are for the next month.

Aguero.....if you look back at his points haul he is great every 6 matches or so......but return most weeks doesnt justify having him in the team no matter what. I kind of feel you have to get lucky and have him on his good weeks.

Im not convinced Auba will keep on the run he is on either though.

Head scratcher.

Ya Auba is getting more goals then his expected goal rate currently and his conversion rate per shot is also slightly high at around 28% but when he was at Dortmund it was also averaging around 23% over a few seasons if I remember correctly.

That game yesterday was high octane but a few of the players have had time off this season with injuries so if they are fit not (which they should be should be rested enough) Kane isn't one of them but he just seems to play loads and the team is built around him to get as many as possible.

Aguero and city are what they are alright a beast but a bit of a minefield with goals spread throughout the team and bench anyone could go on a run at anytime. His minutes do be a worry though.

As pete said its a thinker, although after writing all that I'm liking Kane a bit more personally

Head scratcher.

20 goals in PL since he signed, 10 in 13 last season, 10 in 14 this season so far.

So he's slightly dipped I guess

I reckon he puts one at least past United tbh. Then I'll reassess.

Baggly · 03-12-2018 12:00pm

He is on a run no doubt.....im just not convinced Arsenal can keep going with their unbeaten streak. And i can see Mou or one of the other teams Arsenal have to play parking the bus and not allowing Auba the space to arrive at the right place at the right time, or cutting off the supply to Auba. Ill be happy to be wrong on that from a general POV as i like this new Arsenal and Emery.

Necro · 03-12-2018 12:10pm

I think if Arsenal approach the game against Utd in the same way as the Spurs match they could over run them in the second half particularly. Not expecting a cricket score or anything but United are just so bang average this year I think they're there for the taking, particularly at OT where they've been so poor this year. (Sorry Mick :cool: )

Baggly · 03-12-2018 12:14pm

Yeah id have to go with Kane. Laca is there and takes the limelight from Auba sometimes too. Kane is Spurs only real focal point, so it makes more sense from the POV of selections and goal threat for the next few matches.

Spurs also usually bounce back from defeats, so hoping that comes into play as well.

03-12-2018 12:31pm

No apologies needed Necro club as a whole are a disgrace atm but at least I've FPL to get me through it :cool:

Baggly · 03-12-2018 12:33pm

He isnt sorry at all Mick. After years of malaise at Arsenal, he is revelling in your pain.

Baggly · 05-12-2018 11:00am

Shane ****ing Duffy

Kolido · 05-12-2018 7:55pm

Christ..Origi and Sturridge starting for us tonight.

Salah, who I have cpt on the bench. Mane and Robertson not even in the team.

Midweek games usually throw up some strange results.

Necro · 05-12-2018 7:58pm

Yeah I managed to put Robertson onto my own bench but Mane got left in

Pain in the hoop tbh.

05-12-2018 8:13pm

I think I'll end up fielding about 9 although I feel like Ive been doing that for weeks now so its all good

Ive got a captain starting at least.

Kolido · 05-12-2018 8:29pm

Yeah I'll have at best 10 playing, assuming my subs all play. Cpt not starting and v cpt didnt play last night. Lucky I had Fraser and Wilson bagging me 12pts each last night but resigning myself to a poor gw overall, an all too familiar case this season.

kitten_k · 05-12-2018 9:59pm

Second week in a row I’ve missed the transfer deadline!!

Kolido · 05-12-2018 10:51pm

Haha..ended up with only 7 players getting game time.

Jesus thats a shocker there twas a crazy game week alright, i managed to field 11 but 3 of them came off their teams benches to get minutes and 1 of them actually cored (bar kane it looks like i made some very bad subs this week)

Baggly · 06-12-2018 10:30am

Got 11 on the pitch but Duffy was -2, Laporte was only on for a minute (so a 1) and i had higher scoring players i could have done with getting on in his place.

Now i have to contend with an injured Arnautovic, Mane, Gomez and suspended Duffy and Billing.

Ah my midweek only gained me 23 points. Swapped Sane and Augero out for Brooks and Arnotavic........ had the latter as my captain. Should have went for Wilson and Fraser. Doh.

Then Sterling, Jorgino and Perriera dont play, all my defenders conceed. Only for Raul Jimenez and Richarlison Id have about 5 points.

Free hit being used on Sat

Necro · 06-12-2018 3:03pm

Callum Wilson and Richarlison dragged me through to a semi decent week. Rest were a smattering of 1s and 2s.

Oh and a 7 from Glenn Murray but of course he scores then gets injured.

Mane out Sane in anyways, just swapping Capital letters :pac:

Eyeing up that Arsenal Huddersfield game for juicy points from Auba now too

Ugh jesus its sick when the coin flips dont fall your way alright, I was poxed that Adone came on for the injured Murray and scored it really was a minefield out there this week.

06-12-2018 3:07pm

Someone talk me out of taking a minus 8 so I can go with an Aguero, Kane, Abua forward line it just looks like it'd be a lot of fun should have done it when I had the free transfer but it was all a rush.

Baggly · 06-12-2018 3:08pm

Well it looks good on paper but what happens if all 3 get rested at some stage.

Baggly · 06-12-2018 3:08pm

Ok maybe not Kane.

Well Aguero is still a doubt and they're up against Chelsea this week :P

Wouldn't argue with Kane and Auba however. If you have the coin somehow!

06-12-2018 3:17pm

Ya all fair points although it would be some craic for the xmas you'd surely get 2 oout each game week and fixtures aren't bad, given I'm only playing for fun at this stage it miht be the deciding factor go down shooting

Pew pew :pac:

Andone has a trail with me this week thanks to the free hit in place of Danny ings, Kane , Abam and himself to deliver some points.

When with Patterson in midfield too.

I went against a Gab Jesus transfer but i do fancy him to score against Chelsea. Kane got the nod

Actually I forgot Arsenal could be plauged by injuries after last night might be a good time to get some cheap low ownership exporsure in thier midfield Miki could be onn the table depending on news

Adone was on my watch list all season was out for ages with injury no other reason then I read an article on him ages ago but he has never displaced Murray since he has been back he did suck me in though with the 1 start but given Murrays injury looks a decent shout.

Also Ings under a good manager could be gold dust I was waiting till hughes got sacked to consider him but statistaclly he gets a good lot of chances

How many strikers can I play again :pac:
