    Praying for City team news, in an ideal world I'd end up with Sterling, Mahrez, Dilva

    We're all praying for an early sign of Pep roulette.

    I'm thinking Sterling misses out?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,952 ✭✭✭Morzadec


    Looking at taking a -4

    Salah, Mahrez and Egan out.

    Sterling, Pulisic and Tarkowski in.

    Think Sterling will outscore Salah today (already own Laporte and KDB so Mahrez is the City player to miss out)

    Pulisic in good form and fancy Burnley to get a CS rather than SHU.

    Madness?

    I fancy Mahrez to start and get points today, I tihnk if you have him in already then taking him out in inadvisable. Pulisic is looking hot at the mo but Wolves don't give up goals easily. Mahrez has a much higher ceiling imo

    I would save y our 4 points and just do Salah and Egan our for Sterling and Tark (or downgrade to Pieters if you need the funds).

    In fact Pieters is arguably better than Tark even if you do have the funds. Taylor has been ruled out and Pieters is getting some attacking returns.

    Can't decide what to do

    Main options are Foden to Silva

    Foden and Salah to Silva and Sterling for -4

    Salah to Sterling (although that leaves Foden in my team)

    Foden and Vardy/Rashford to Dilva and Jesus

    Salah and Vardy/Rashford to Sterling and Kane

    As do I, but unfortunately I already own KDB, Laporte and Mahrez so in order to get Sterling in, I need to get rid of 1 of the City players.

    Laporte should be guaranteed a CS should he start so it's either Mahrez or KDB out for Sterling should i go down that route.

    Looking at Bruno to Sterling. Would like Kane too but that would mean taking a minus 8

    Ah right yeah interesting dilemma.. i only have 2 city.

    I'd consider Laporte and Salah out for Sterling and Taa or Robbo if that's doable for you. Not sure if you have the funds. I just think this is one where you want to really go for the City attackers.

    Out
    Jimenez
    Bruno

    In
    Kane
    David Silva

    (-4)

    Due to that -4 myself and second place in my private league start the day on the same points.


  • Registered Users Posts: 492 ✭✭denis1501


    Sterling been away in St Tropez sunning himself, surely he doesn't start today?? Not just because he hasn't trained but because of Covid 19 risks?

    I don't think he would have been allowed go there if it meant he would miss out due to Covid

    Maybe he's been told he's not needed against Norwich, to go away and have a break, come back refreshed and ready for the Champions League?

    One last throw of the **** against the wall and DCL stays in my team! Asking for punishment I know but "if" he can click and not hit the post this week it could be the difference in the money I take home if any in my League.

    Possibly but seems very unlike Pep to allow something like that

    Mahrez and mendy were also abroad
    They were all given two days off


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Free hit team

    Pope

    TAA, Aurier, Mendy, Pieters

    Salah, Sterling, Martial, D. Silva

    Kane, Greenwood

    Not delighted with double United attack but can’t find a better option.

    Pep seems to have 2 defenses which he alternates.

    I'm guessing he's playing
    Stones
    Otamendi
    Zinchenko
    Cancelo today

    The only reason Sterling starts is Golden Boot, otherwise he is wrapped in cotton wool by Pep for Madrid...but Golden Boot for a lad who couldnt hit a barn door a few years back is some carrot - fwiw i think he starts


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,132 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I am thinking I will have to forego David Silva now

    I disagree, City don't need motivation to rack up 5 or 6. I'd be genuinely surprised if they keep it to 3 or less. Pep roulette is the only thing to cause hesitancy

    Yea I think the most likely score line there is 4 nil. It's picking the right 3 which is the tough part.

    I'm either doing Bruno to Dilva or Salah to Sterling

    No team news and it will be Bruno to Dilva


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,692 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    Kane or augbamayang (most likely a misspell!)

    Kane for me

    I'm thinking similar..ish

    Bruno to David Silva in the absence of team news. Might do KDB rather than Salah (would be a -4 if KDB) if KDB benched - although I don't expect he will be.

    I can't justify losing Salah or taking a -4 for Sterling unless I'm 100% certain he starts.

    Last game of the season for Kane so more chance of starting.

    I own PEA and concerned about him being rested for cup final.

    I think KDB is nailed, I'll sell Salah and he'll probably go on a rampage
