    Tadic Mane or Mata?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,110 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno


    Mirallas and giroud in for payet and Carroll.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Was all set on Milner to Tadic but it looks like I have no keeper.

    After a quick look there isn't much available for 4.7 or less, so would you play with 10 or use the sub for one of Boruc, Darlow, Bogdan or Pickford (I have Mannone and would transfer out Robles, meaning I'm guaranteed a keeper)?

    If I bring in a keeper I have to start Lukaku and Carroll!!

    If you did have a keeper would you be happy for him to score 4 points?

    I would never take a points hit to bring in a keeper / defender.

    I wouldn't be taking a points hit though, the keeper transfer would be instead of Milner to Tadic.

    Milner definitely won't play either so how does that leave you fixed?

    No Marcos Rojo at the Lowry Hotel tonight. Would be mint if he didn't play tomorrow, he's been so trash.

    Fosu Mensah aswell.

    Good news for me, rival has Rojo, PVA, Moreno, Coutinho, Firmino and Payet and has already made his transfer.

    If Payet is out I'll have to go 4 at the back.
    Keeper
    Bellerin, Gabriel, Dawson, Cresswell
    Mahrez, Hazard, Ozil
    Aguero, Lukaku, Carroll.

    Martin the only sub likely to play.

    If I play without a keeper Tadic comes into the starting XI for Cresswell (Payet would start for Carroll if it turns out he is fit)

    Tadic and Aguero in.
    Payet and Defoe out.

    Mignolet (Mannone)
    Gabriel, Monreal, Smalling
    Townsend, Hazard, Tadic, Sanchez (c)
    Aguero, Carroll, Deeney.

    Subs: Mahrez, Reid, Sahko

    Don't think I'll have a keeper but can't justify a hit for a one week punt for a keeper.

    Defending a 10 point lead in a money league so Aguero brought in as a blocker. Going without KDB which could swing things, as rival has him. Really wanted Tadic though!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,764 ✭✭✭Thepoet85


    Is Payet hurt or something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,487 ✭✭✭✭CSF

    Not in the squad by all accounts.

    A Twitter account that is supposedly genuine has said he picked up a knock and wont be travelling with the squad.

    That said nothing anywhere else from what i can see.

    A pure disaster for me as it now gives my rivals cash and options whereas he was totally empty before this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,131 ✭✭✭NabyLadistheman


    My lack of Utd defence looks scary now...my two immediate rivals have doubled up..-8 to try and get somebody in so not worth it. Just gonna say a prayer there us a goal in Bournemouth!

    Rojo not at United hotel
    All pool players likely to be rested
    Sunderland team that's tipped to start doesn't include most of the first 11 (big Sam said he will play a lot of u21s)
    Payet out according to Twitter and the guardian

    Rojo out.
    PVA highly likely to be rested as Sunderland play young lads.
    Liverpool EL final team set to all be rested.
    Payet strong twitter rumours hes out.

    Liverpool expected to rest anyone starting Europa final so that rules the 3 of them out. Big Sam has said he'll make changes which puts pva in doubt & twitter rumours that payet & rojo are out of action for tomorrow.

    For those with mo keeper tomorrow (and other priorities for FT) it really is a conundrum as to whether to get somebody for a hit or not.

    It's not clearcut either way and the risk abd reward are both low. Likely best case you gain 2 to 3. Worst case you are 2 points worse off.

    If you hold off and the guy you woulda bought gets a cs and you lose a league by a point you'll be pissed off. But if you do it and it doesn't work losing a league by a points hit would be even more annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    The Pva/Payet/Defoe trifecta is certainly annoying. It appears I may be ending the season with a five man defence! But I already took a -4 to bring in Tadic and Giroud so I'm not gonna sweat it. I'm something like 60 points ahead in my main league so short of a catastrophe, I should be okay.

    Has there been a specific Sunderland team quoted?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Carrying junk like Alli and Sahko coming back to bite me now. I currently have 6 likely non starters in my 15 including both keepers.

    I'll only field 9 if Payet is out.

    Yeah GW38 hits rarely worth it and all but fùcking hell....

    Ziegler on one of the other threads.

    I would never take a points hit to bring in a keeper / defender.

    With many looking at blocker/chaser moves they seem to be ignoring this.
    The Payet injury news has me now looking at -8 this week unless Willian starts.
    Might go Mr. P style and get Arnie/Walters and Gardner in for Firmino and Payet and bench Willian.

    Arnie is an interesting one
    He has been good to me this season
    Got him in , got points and shipped him out at the right times
    Under consideration !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,235 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Gone with Ayew. Playing up front against very ropey City defense and has had very good season.
