3-3 bearahino goal

Sigh. Cash h2h opponent has him coming off the bench for Rooney

roryc · 28-12-2013 03:15PM

And f**king McGregor starts??? Jesus Christ, the managers are properly trolling us today. I might be playing with 9 after taking a 4 point hit.

Lemlin · 28-12-2013 03:15PM

My main rival has Negredo (c) with Rooney vice. He took an 8 point hit to bring in Januzaj with Negredo. He also has Zabaleta and Yaya.

He'll have no keeper either because he benched Howard as he thought Harper would play.

qwabercd · 28-12-2013 03:16PM

Tbh I'd still expect Negredo to get 20-30 minutes. HE's well capable of scoring a goal against Palace, he seems to get a lot of his goals when City are well ahead in a match. Lucky that my captain Silva is starting, it was a complete minefield this week.

Blatter · 28-12-2013 03:17PM

Happy I went with Silva, felt he was the least likely big player to be a victim of rotation as he's not long back from injury and is relatively fresh.

SlickRic · 28-12-2013 03:18PM

I brought in and captained Dzeko, so I am happy.

would've done Silva if I could do it again though. thought he might be rested.

nine9nine · 28-12-2013 03:18PM

mcgregor starts? FFS I have him benched for cech, and doubt chelsea will keep a clean sheet against suarez and co.

classic stuff that:)

KevIRL · 28-12-2013 03:19PM

Just copped that januzaj is benched too

finnharpsboy · 28-12-2013 03:20PM

this is a great match

He's having an awful run. He had Valencia and Howard sent off on Thursday.

roryc · 28-12-2013 03:20PM

Hopefull Nasri gets a run out. 6 changes is madness, even for City at Christmas. Really hope they f**k up now.

Scorpion Sting · 28-12-2013 03:20PM

Sorry about the initial post above, got a few subs mixed up.

doesnt seem to start for tough away games

G1032 · 28-12-2013 03:21PM

Christ. Ridgewell is coming in for Rooney. My VC is Suarez. The way the week has gone already I just a know Dzeko is on for a hat trick

Rayne Wooney · 28-12-2013 03:21PM

Looks like people who packed their bench with cheap subs will suffer a lot today

Iused2likebusts · 28-12-2013 03:21PM

not overly surprised rooney is left out. He had that slight groin strain last week these things take a while to properly heal and Id imagine he slightly aggravated it against hull and will be back against spurs.

zarquon · 28-12-2013 03:22PM

Will be a big day with lots of points swings due to the big players being benched.

Pellegrini just gave an interview saying that playing after 44 hours is not natural and is putting players in danger.

If he benched Howard, he'll come back in once Harper has no minutes.

Necronomicon · 28-12-2013 03:24PM

I have Rooney(c) and Yaya(VC).

See you next GW everyone.

iroced · 28-12-2013 03:24PM

Wow ! This is gonna be a killer GW with all these rested/benched/fakely injured players and all the transfers/hits people have taken.

One thing I dare to say to reassure you all. A starting line-up does not necessarily provide you points. Ramsey proved it many times this season by getting big points in 15-20 min while Ozil was providing a 2 pointer over 90min. Early subbing can also kill you a lot more than late entrance, especially in a tough game where players got only 2-3 days to rest.

Ah... if there's a god, McGregor will get injured for 6 months, United will lose badly, and City will struggle with Silva shining and Yaya and Negredo scoring from the bench.

Fizman · 28-12-2013 03:24PM

Why are people so surprised with mass changes? This was ALWAYS going to happen.

nine9nine · 28-12-2013 03:25PM

Any ideas who's likely to fair better between these two, folks??

my team

cech
terry--clark--coleman--lovren(if he plays, if not down to 10!)
whittingham--cabaye--lallana--nolan
suarez--berahino

Rival team

Mignolet
coleman--zabaleta--shaw--clark
shelvey--barkely--hazard
suarez--negredo(assuming he gets a run, if not delph will be in)

cheers lads

thats why milner and dzeko were the only 2 city attacking players nailed on to start today.
