    My midfielders are:

    Willian (Norwich A)
    Ozil (Swansea H)
    Eriksen (West Ham A)
    Mahrez (WBA A)
    Barkley (Aston Villa A)


    I need to choose one of them to drop as I will be playing 3-4-3. Any thoughts?

    Erikson or Mahrez if it was me. I've Alli 1st sub starting Sanchez Willian Mahrez Lingard
    Who are your strikers?

    Surprised by the amount of people benching Alli.
    He'll either start or not play imo and his away record speaks for itself.

    Arnie for my captain pick. 60 odd points behind in my money league so feel that now is the time to mix it up. Playing it safe and standard hasn't worker out much this year.

    I'm just delighted that there's probably 110k people ahead of me who don't even know there's games tonight, hopefully a few bench mishaps will allow me to pick up a few places.

    Ah here. Surely you know that's not gonna happen. Some non starting defender who's in for an injury will sub in with a goal and a clean sheet for people who didn't know there were games on....

    Choice of benching Payet, Firmino or Kane. Going for Firmino atm, but just know whatever I pick I'll get it wrong.

    I sold Payet and benched Alli. I "think" Alli will get a rest with a view too Arsenal game.

    Well you have Leicester and Spurs covered in other poistions so it's a coin toss really.. Only a suggestion but maybe go with starting Alli as he plays tomorow? Give you a sweat?

    Hate these late deadlines, too much time to tinker with things :pac:

    Thinking of benching Alder & Alli and starting Payet & Cresswell instead. Not sure which double to use!

    I'm just going to ride Ozil out until GW30 or my WC and reassess. Sanchez plus Rambo in my midfield have been beaten by Ozil almost every week the last four GWs :pac:

    Yeah I've decided to keep him. Just had a FIFA match there for Chile and had a million shots as Sanchez and not one went in :pac:

    My new strategy is to line up a poor side, because lining up a potentially high scoring side never seems to work! No transfers made:

    Butland
    Alder Bellerin Bertrand
    Lingard Payet Mahrez Sanchez
    Aguero (C) Vardy Kane

    Haha I had Costa to Aguero -4 ready to click in case the team was early so I was constantly refreshing on my phone. Couldn't believe when I saw haha. Watch him blank and Aguero go mad now :(

    After weeks of me saying and warning that his position wasn't safe, it took me buying him as bench fodder defender for him to get dropped.

    I'll take it as proving myself both right and wrong at the same time.
