This makes the Arsenal win tonight very precious. Arsenal should still be fighting for a top 4 spot by GW34 (and may still be by GW37) which would make their DGW tastier .

The way United are playing and with Spurs' inconsistency, Arsenal and Liverpool are coming into form at exactly the right time. By GW37, the top four may be exactly the same as last season, albeit with Chelsea top this time.

To add to that the 4 teams that are missing gw33 plus liverpool and hull if they win the replay will have a dgw in either 34 or 37

Villa v QPR DGW31 isn't out of the question if Sky want to go up against BT's FA Cup replay

Ye 31 is the only other possible date. A game has been moved forward before but I'd class that as the least likely option as there is no fear of a fixture pile up for either team.

With Liverpool missing a week and then Chelsea having a double, it could be the perfect time for Sturridge to Costa.

If Liverpool miss a week (if they beat Blackburn) they could also have a DGW 34. It would then look like this:

Costa ars/lei
Sturridge wba/hul

Not much between them and with Aguero having AVL, it could be a major decision assuming most teams will only be able to fit 2 of these in. Also consider Aguero has WHM in GW33 so couldn't see myself moving him on.

Obviously we can never be sure all 3 will be available for that week (or even on form) but at the moment it's a difficult decision for me. Thankfully I have a few weeks before I have to decide.

I don't think I've ever wanted a Blackburn win more in my life!

Costa is becoming a liability could have been sent off 3 times tonight.

Iused2likebusts · 12-03-2015 12:21AM

That chelsea result makes their players a bit more valuable for the DGW as they were facing a heavy schedule if they'd gone through.
Apr 15 CL QF
Apr 18 GW 33 Utd
Apr 22 CL QF
Apr 26 GW 34 Arsenal
Apr 29 GW 34 leicester
May 2 GW 35 palace
I was going to steer clear of Costa as I felt leicester away was a dodgy one for him to start and go with double chelsea defence. Ill be rethinking my approach now.

extra gravy · 12-03-2015 12:35AM

Not sure I want Costa anywhere near my team again this season. The yellow cards and general fcukwittery he goes on with are a big turn off. Hopefully Sturridge will hit form and make the choice between them even easier.

for the amount of gameweeks that will be left in I don't think I'll have Costa. to get him and a Chelsea defender I'd have to downgrade Sanchez to a 5\6ml mid and I am not doing that if arsenal have a dgw the same week! Costa will inevitably soon be on 9 yellows anyway.......and will prob pick up the 10th in the first game of the dgw

I think I'll continue with aguero Kane and then rotate the 3rd when necessary. if benteke is fit I'm happy to stick with him for next few. may look at the leic lad for their dgw even.........he looks good

G1032 · 13-03-2015 11:15AM

For those of you still thinking about bringing in that nutcase Costa, I saw this post in the Arsenal thread on the Soccer forum

Olivier Giroud was injured August-December. So around 14 games missed.Costa only has 4 goals more than him in all comps. Make what you will.

It just further fuels the 'much much better value than Costa out there' debate

If he picks up his 10th yellow in the first Game of the DGW he won't be suspended. The 10 yellow rule is up to the 2nd sunday in April (GW 32 v QPR).
Basically if he can avoid notching up 2 yellows in the next 4 games he is home free for the season....

Home free until he no doubt hits 14 with a couple of games to go and is on the tightrope again! If any forward can do it he can!!

No doubt he has another couple of stamps left in him or a further urge to clobber someone. He's due another sending off isn't he?

It's 5 years since the last time he was actually sent off :eek:

Maybe in the league. Remember his 'headbutt' against Victoria Plzen? That was the season before last

Tony_Montana · 16-03-2015 09:54AM

So what's the story for the rest of the season?
Any more possible dgws?
When Will Arsenals game be scheduled for?

Ziegler1988 · 17-03-2015 03:03PM

Except it isn't on Sky anymore. Weird then

dahat · 17-03-2015 03:06PM

That's interesting.

Austin,Benteke and Philips

km79 · 17-03-2015 03:24PM

Great news ! Benteke has been my best signing
It will be with a heavy heart that I swell him for costa Giroud or Sturridge

Feck Austin! If Villa keep up their current form, it'll be Agbonglahor and Bentekkers on the radar!

spock. · 17-03-2015 03:30PM

I won't have any DGW players for GW31. Austin and Benteke probably the only ones worth getting, but with a blank 2 weeks later I don't think either are worth 2 transfers.

km79 · 17-03-2015 03:45PM

3 of villas last 4 are at home too
will have to sell gw32 but he will be back!

Neil3030 · 17-03-2015 04:14PM

Yeah, not really any value in bringing in anyone other than Benteke and Austin, imo.

Villa will play QPR at home but their other game in GW31 is away to Man United. QPR have West Brom away then go away to Villa. Two away games for a team with terrible away form. So basically, neither team have two appealing fixtures.
