    Anyone brave enough to name their full team before the deadline :pac:

    I've gone with tried and tested 3-4-3 formation I can reveal...


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,396 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    This is the part where people go "OMG, Idiot, why did you pick X and Y".
    DDG
    Azpilicueta - Vertonghen - Pereira (Leicester)
    Sanchez - Dedonker - Sessegnon - Neves (Wolves)
    Zaha - Lukaku - Firminho

    EDIT - Bench - Kepa, Creswell, Fredricks - Jorginho

    I tried to pick based on the season rather than just the weekend. Not sure if that's smart or not.

    I may also have shown a complete lack of patience and used my "Triple Points Captain" thingy already :P

    Nice.

    Here's mine, defensively we'll be looking for similar points.

    De Gea
    Azpi, Walker, Perreira
    Salah, Neves, Wilshere, Micki Ryan (Mkhitaryan for the non football heads)
    Mitrovic, Kane, Zaha
    Subs:
    Richarlison, Lascelles, Schindler (Huddersfield)

    ..............Alison

    Azpilicueta Shaw Darmian


    mane Pedro sanhez Moura

    Lacazette Morata Gray

    Subs: PIckford, wan-bisska holbes delufeou

    with no idea if pedro Moura Morata or gray will start

    also them United defenders most likely wont be playing in 3 weeks


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,988 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Not bad QB you might need to take Gayle out altogether though as he won't be playing in the PL this season any more :P

    Your bench with Lacazette is interesting, I'd start him and Mustafi ahead of your Gayle replacement and Davies for Spurs who might not see many minutes.

    Other than that it ain't the worst I've ever seen.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,358 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    I'm going for a heavy midfield, think this weekends ties could won there.
    Alison
    Moses - Alderweireld - Davies
    Milivojevic - Doucoure - Alli - DeBruyne - Albrighton
    Firmino - Giroud

    Subs: Begovic - Arnautovic - Zanka - Monreal


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭[Deleted User]


    Is Giroud meant to be starting, think i'll just start over :D:o


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,988 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro

    Just cracked and changed my team too :pac:

    Out goes Kane, in comes Aubemayang.

    Out goes Kyle Walker, in goes Jonny (Wolves)

    Out goes Richarlison... in goes De Bruyne :)

    GK - Ederson, Button (bench)
    DEF - Mina, Trippier, Duffy, Kelly (bench), Suttner (bench)
    MID - Eriksen, Salah, Sessegnon, Richarlison, Hojbjerg (bench)
    FOR - Kane, Zaha, King

    Hopefully Mina is as free scoring as he was at the world cup.

    ah here that team looks great think you were having us on earllier, although I think Lovern is out for the first game

    Seems not actually, thanks for the heads up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh


    Been through quite a few changes but got the below team for now, so probably just going to stick!

    Keep in mind that some of the guys who went far in the WC might not be back playing this weekend - KDB, Hazard, Lukaku, Pogba, Kane, Maguire, Lovren etc


    Ederson

    Cédric - Robertson - Coleman

    Richarlison - Eriksen - Salah - Jota

    Ings - Firmino - Agüero


    Subs: Boruc, Cairney, Peltier, Wan-Bissaka

    My reaction when Lukaku fluffs a chance gifted to him by my Triple Points captain Sanchez, and then DDG conceeds a stupid, stupid goal in the 92nd minute.

    angry-gif-tumblr-12.gif

    Still.....top of our league now. Can only go downhill from here :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude


    3 points, unreal start

    ......................De Gea

    Azpilicueta Alonso Simpson Otamendi

    Eleni Iwobi Arter Nelson

    ...Kane Wells

    OOOOOOOOOOOO triple points captain thats dirty........

    I thought he was on the penalties as well so that was a little disappointing could have been a humongous start for you.

    he wasnt great again for a man u perspective unfortunetly


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,358 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Lucky United as usuall


    *didnt see the game so no idea, but any excuse to dis them


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,411 ✭✭✭tritium


    Quiet so far


    Alisson

    Danilo bellerin cresswell ottamendi

    De Bruyne. Milvojevic. Son Salah. Groß

    Arnautovic


    Clearly basing my early hopes on a midfield miracle
