    the thing is i wouldn't be considering him as a downgrade of Yaya or Silva, but possibly the best option of the 3. he's on form, not a shadow of a doubt, with the goal and assist against Roma backed up with an assist at the weekend. no suspension hanging over his head like Yaya. no fitness doubts like Silva.. there's definitely a good case for him i think

    Agree with this. This is partly why I won't be moving on City attacking coverage this week. Unless Silva looks incredible at the weekend I'd see Nasri as possibly the best candidate at this moment in time.

    Also re Silva, while he may end up 'false 9' for this week, Jovetic may not be far away and could be the best option by GW19.

    yep if Jovetic is confirmed fit for GW19 he's coming straight into my team and getting the captaincy

    Was looking at City's squad there to see how expensive Nasri was and I noticed that Scott Sinclair is still at City :pac:

    Is he even alive though? Surely he'd be an option for City in this time of crisis. Also a shame John Guidetti is gone on loan to Celtic he could've gotten a chance at the moment.

    This post may be helpful for those looking at a Costa -> RVP move.

    Having both solves the problem of choosing :)

    Felipe Luis with a smashing free kick against Derby. I got burned for bringing him in before, but he has been playing very well recently!

    This article is almost prophetic....
    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-city/11069122/Manchester-City-ready-to-let-Alvaro-Negredo-move-to-Valencia-while-Micah-Richards-joins-Fiorentina.html
    ....Pellegrini chose not to pursue a replacement for Negredo on deadline day, despite being left with only three recognised forwards in Sergio Agüero, Edin Dzeko and Stevan Jovetic.....
    ....Pellegrini has also made it clear to Txiki Begiristain, City’s director of football, that he is prepared to deploy Samir Nasri or Yaya Touré in advanced roles should Agüero, Jovetic or Dzeko become unavailable.

    Costa's game time over Xmas may look a bit better as drogba picked up an injury tonight

    Where is Remy? I thought he'd get a lot more game time than he's getting. He's even third choice behind Drogba it appears.

    Bony or Austin or Giroud?

    Does anyone still have baines in their side or is it time to get rid ?

    Gird has a tough run and is likely to be rested once over Christmas. Can't see the others rested and have nicer fixtures.

    Bony probably better than Austin, but Austin has 3 H in the next 4 so may outscore Bony to the Wildcard.

    I still have him and will have him till January cos I've much more pressing issues. this is what he does anyway every year big hauls then a run of low ones and repeat.....I've been lucky this year in that I got all the big ones too so I'm more inclined to be patient!
    if I was on a wildcard I'd prob switch him to a city defender though!
    mirallas being fit or hopefully not will make all the difference !!!
    I watched baines closely Monday night and his starting position was back to "normal baines " as soon as mirallas went off. he was much much more advanced .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,108 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno

    Baines played his best football with Pienaar ahead of him. Sadly Pienaar is now finished so Baines will not be the same player. Still a good player but I doubt he will ever have the same link up play he had with Pienaar.

    Nasri i.m.o has a good case for consideration at the moment

    He actually does :o... And it's soooooo hard to admit it. He's probably the worst French person ever born since the dawn of Man :pac:...

    All this value costa is building. He might be worth keeping for a bit

    I'm thinking the same myself. I might forego RVP. Di Maria anyone?

    Dzeko to Bony done since Sunday night, probably will leave it at that after -4 fail with Dzeko last week!

    I'm going to bring in Dimichelis tonight but with a backline of Wisdom (v QPR), Baines (v Sou) and Cresswell (v Lei), is there any room for him to start at all?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,463 ✭✭✭OneColdHand


    What are people doing with Chambers? Getting rid?

    Defense is causing me all sorts of headaches as well. I could conceivably see myself picking any of my 5 defenders for 3 spaces

    Bertrand (Eve H), Azpili (Sto A), Cresswell (Lei H), Dummett (Sun H), Wisdom (QPR A)

    Many fellas have Fab & Hazard Combo and for long? Giving it serious consideration


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 676 ✭✭✭Dietsquirt


    Until the end of the year who's the best option? (I have Yaya & Hazard as my exp mids)

    Fabregas, Sanchez, Silva or other


    Are many selling Azpi?

    Who's the best/safest City defender to get?

    Jones/Evans worth a punt? Quite cheap

    I had it for one week, then Fab got his 5th yellow. Doubling up (or tripling up as I did with Costa) can be stressful to say the least!
