    Lads is it just last min knee-jerk panic to do Ozil -> Mata ?

    My plan was to save my transfer for this week... But with RVP back I'm afarid of what his combo with Mata could do to a rubbish Cardiff side on the road...

    No I'd say that is a good transfer.

    Does Barkley start for Everton?

    Yep with Cabaye gone and 2 free transfers I managed get him and Lambert out and Mata and Chamakh in. Chamak on the bench obviously.

    I wouldnt do it personally. I fancy Arsenal to score a couple against a Saints defense that has been pretty leaky (and Lovren out too??), plus its only Mata's first game (and RVP's first game back) so there's bound to be a bit of ring-rustiness from both of them

    Keep Ramsey or drop him? Surely he will play next week?

    Keep. I'm keeping.

    i was going to do it until I saw the 4 midfielders behind those 2.

    Just done another -12. So that's -20 for me this GW. :eek: No more hits for the rest of the season.

    Szczsney > Speroni
    Januzaj > Mata
    Cabaye > Mutch

    Thats a huge risk, changing the only "in form" United player for someone who has only played a handful of games this season. Don't see the logic myself, I hope it comes off for you.

    I don't normally like to **** on peoples' parade but those are absolutely terrible transfers.

    But what the hell, did another one, got rid of Sterling and brought in Barkley instead.
    Last minute wild card fever.

    But have you seen the midfield those two are playing against?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    This is how i line up so:

    Mannone
    Brown Kos Kolarov
    Oscar Ozil Silva Johnson
    Suarez(C) Aguero Bony

    Last min change of captaincy from Kun to Suarez, and doubled up on S'land in defense at the expense of Ward (C.Palace) - Long making his Hull debut fancy him to score for some reason


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,208 ✭✭✭MikeCork2009


    I have the Countdown conundrum clock and music in my head now reading this thread :D

    Feck! Was tinkering with my team last minute and didn't get time to pick my team! Hope I didn't leave a premium player on the bench. :(

    Yet it's really just beginning.

    Mannone
    Danny G, Evans, Cahill
    Mata, Oscar, Santi, Lallana
    Aguero, Ade, Suarez (c)

    subs: McGregor, Bennett, Kos, Delph

    Resisted the might of RVP

    Good idea. 3 mins too late for me. Speroni in goal, could have kept Mannone for another week.

    Nooooo. You fool!! I thought I had wormed inside your brain and had a partner. Now it's really really a differential when even Prodston wouldn't do it..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,208 ✭✭✭MikeCork2009


    Ended up with:

    Szczesny
    Koscielny Gabbidon Dawson
    Barkley Hazard Mata Sidwell
    Rodriguez Suarez (C) Aguero

    Ozil has 2 decent games as does mata next two. Toss of a coin really. Two of the best number 10's in the world.

    I couldn't....resist. He's in.
    I'm far too fruity for this game.

    That said, I prefer having him over Aguero for the next 8 GWs (if RVP comes back on form... That's my risk). Com'on Robin.

    Good man! Here's to him not coming off injured before half time. :D

    On the Aguero thing. Brave!
