      Would they bother sacking him before last game, nothing to play for at this stage.

      Atmosphere could be toxic if he is there on Sunday, he won't get a nice reception so they may want him there to avoid a nasty atmosphere plus they may want to save him having toe endure abuse from fans.

      Who's in line as replacement long term?
      Will they get Moyes back?
      Hardly much love for Rodgers, ex pool!

      Mark Hughes heads the betting. Moyes is in with a shout along with Pellegrini, Bielsa, Frank de Boer and Lucien Favre.

      Any Harry Kane owners keeping him for this week? Need a final flurry from him as my mini league is super tight.

      Or have Spurs gone off the boil altogether?

      I have my AOA chip so may as well use it this week. Other mids/forwards are

      KDB Sanchez Mahrez Payet Alli (the one to go)
      Sturridge Carroll Martial

      Sturridge will be out for Aguero and then it'll be Alli to whatever mid. Any good tips for a one week punt? I've 8 mil in the bank so should be fit to afford anyone. Have Gabriel and Cech so can't go with another Arsenal.

      Hazard or Tadic, both in good form.

      Instead of Tafic, what about Davies. Especially if he plays off the striker like last week.

      Good shout but would tadic be more likely too score well, Davies had a great week last week is he really likely too match that ?

      I'd hold off on selling lukaku just yet. With a bit of luck martinez will get the sack before the weekend.

      Ssn running with martinez may be gone by the weekend as it's lead story.

      Sturridge to Giroud, and probably Townsend/Lanzini to Tadic.

      That leaves me stuck with Triple Failure Big Andy...might bench him.

      Last night's PVA miracle has given me a 16 point lead in my work league so those two transfers and captain Sanchez should see me over the line

      Advice please. 12 points behind,these are the two full teams:

      Mine:
      Foster - Mannone
      Moreno - Kone - Bellerin - Darmian - Lovren
      Iwobi - Noble - Mahrez - Payet - Sanchez
      Sturridge - Kane - Carroll

      Rival:
      Gomes - Hennessey
      Moreno - Bellerin - Cresswell - Delaney - Cathcart
      Sanchez - Payet - Townsend - Firmino - Iwobi
      Aguero - Carroll - Sturridge

      Only 1 transfer. Thinking Sturridge to Shane Long, or should I get rid of Iwobi?

      All going to come down to Captain choice. I can see them captaining Sanchez, but I don't know who I should captain...

      Long is good shout or have you enough for Aguero?

      No chance. Man U have to win.

      Could see him being subbed early if City are a few goals up in their game.

      Once I have no injuries and ozil is declared fit. My transfer will be Bellerin in for Daniels.

      Rival has Aguero so I'm thinking that would be a net zero sum.

      Going with Tadic and Giroud myself...already have Aguero and wary of doubling up in case City have another non performance.

      I don't see much talk of Spacecraft here at all.....are people holding on to him for one last mission? Tempted to hang onto him instead of Lanzini

      After the failure to launch at the weekend, I think we've already seen the final voyage of the good ship Spacecraft for this season.

      Probably Milner to Tadic.

      Leaves me stuck with Lukaku and Carroll, but I might play Mahrez so I can bench one of the donkeys.

      Same regarding AOA. But with Smalling, Bellerin & Gabriel at the back and Townsend & Carroll upfront, I'm tempted not to use this chip and play my normal 3-4-3 replacing either Townsend or Carroll. Taking yet another 4 pts hit to use a chip doesn't fill me with confidence...

      You'd be bonkers to play the chip with that back 3.

      19, 26, 27, 29 points ahead of the next few in my main money league. No one blocker transfer sticks out so think I'll get Moreno and Milner out for a hit and go for it.

      Sounds like a Everton are only a suitable severance package away from announcing the departure of manager Roberto Martinez.

      Scrap that. Coutinho, Sturridge, Pedro out.

      Tadic, Giroud, Hazard in.

      Form players at home to two teams ripe for that summer holiday/cup final 7-0 thrashing final GW loss. Hazard for being a beast and likely to be involved in that 5-5 game.
