    I saw a tweet earlier saying he is to have a fitness test. Think it was SSN.

    Edit; it was FF Scout tweet.

    I thought Demel was definitely out though? I never like doubling up on defenders/goalkeepers from the same team.

    EDIT: Demel is almost certainly out - http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/premier-league-live-team-news-1386762

    Clark is in because of goal/assist threat, not CS.

    Sorry i missed Jussi as your keeper. Anyway I think Demel will play - Big Sam said he'd likely have a fitness test but he sat on the bench for the Ivory Coast against Senegal

    Ah I see, must have missed that tweet. I'll leave him in anyway, although I'm slightly f**ked if I'm stuck having to use McAuley. Could be minus figures if City feel like scoring.

    I wouldn't have Rooney in my team at the moment. He's been playing in MF and despite getting two assists in his last PL game, and 3 goals for England, he hasn't actually been playing well.

    He's been class for United, ****e for England. But yeah he has been playing a more withdrawn role for United so he isn't worth the money unless that consistently changes.

    I'd transfer Fellaini out for Cazorla and downgrade Tevez to Berba. You should have enough for those moves I think.

    I agree with Fellaini to Cazorla but you could do a straight swap for Pienaar and get a better option up front Jelavic/Giroud(although id probably hold off on him for another week or 2 just to be sure he's going to continue scoring)/Torres if you could afford him

    Done the fellaini out for cazorla, dont realy have enough for anyone better than tevez


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,006 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    Berba is getting the nod this week, Ben Afra is dropping to the bench (subject to me changing my mind at the last minute!)

    Jaaskelainen

    Rafael--Jenkinson--Rangel----
    Toure--Cazorla(c)--Hazard--Pienaar
    ----Berbatov--Torres--Podolski----

    Begovic, Ben Arfa, Demel, Ridgewell


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    Just transferred Jelavic in. Seriously thinking of benching Hazard for this GW.

    I don't think he's going to score highly this week either but if a ~10m player isn't in your starting line up every week, it's time to consider shipping him. I personally don't think he's worth his price tag.

    He's worth 8/9m IMO. Even Torres isn't worth a 10m pricetag but hey, this is the EPL, you never know. Either might score a brace or a hat-trick against a good club & we could see their prices skyrocketing. They have the potential but they're worth a bit less than what they've been priced at.

    Finding it all a bit boring this year so decided to wildcard and take a chance.

    I've more points than I had at this stage last year so will risk it. Plenty of time to come back if it doesn't work out.

    Giroud and Suarez in is a huge gamble but sure what the hell.

    RVP and Tevez are gone. I can't see either being back in my team anytime soon either.

    Cazorla makes his way in for Fellaini as well.

    Gibbs would be in if he wasn't injured so Baines gets the nod.

    Team for this GW now:

    Jussi
    Hughes Baines Rafael
    Michu Pienaar Cazorla Hazard
    Giroud Suarez (c) Fletcher

    Jussi, Sterling, Cuellar, Clark
    3.6 mil in the bank for Michu to disappear after this Gameweek.

    Any ideas on how I could improve the below with 2 free transfers and no money left in the bank? Thanks.

    Yaya out for Nolan.
    Tevez out for Suarez or Torres.

    Kakaniclic for Sterling, Nolan for Yaya, leaving you 1.6m to upgrade a defender next week.

    Suggestion: Suarez seems like a good choice but I'm leaning towards Torres right now. I've got the latter in my team.

    PaulyD has two expensive defenders and three cheapies who are very good for rotation.

    I can't see why money would need to be freed up to upgrade that defence. I've just wildcarded to the same defence except I've Clark and not Demel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    7 Mins to go.

    Jussi

    Jenkinson---Haangelaand---McCauley

    Carzola---Kagawa--Michu (vc)---Pienaar

    Ba---Fletcher
    RVP (C)

    Subs: Gervihno--Nelson--Clark---Foster.

    Go with it or make last minute changes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Cheers lads. I've gone for Nolan in for Yaya this week anyway and will wait until next week before doing anything else. Cue a Yaya hat-trick now while Nolan gets sent off :pac:

    I'd play Gervinho ahead of the 60 minute wonder Kagawa.

    Gervihno comes in as Kagawa didn't play,just copped that I put Ryan Nelsen on instead of McCauley who just got a single point so maybe I got a lucky break,I'll find out tomorrow.
