    RVP again; may God have mercy on all our souls.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Tough one for me, as a Spurs fan I can't give it to Suarez, Berba and Giroud have tough Fixtures.
    May have to give it to a midfielder, Mata home to Fulham, even Rafael home to west ham are in contention.

    :confused::confused:
    Why not?? You can't let your support for a particular team interfere with you FPL choices. Thats just crazy if you take the game in any was seroiusly.

    Hypothetical situation;
    Last day of the season. You're joint top of your private league with €700 going to the winner. Your Spurs team with nothing to play for are away against Man United who need a win to guarantee them the title. You have an on fire RVP in your team but you can't captain him because he's playing against your team.............??????? You lose the €700 because of an RVP hattrick.

    All true, at this stage of the season however I'm not prepared to cheer a guy on scoring against the team I've supported for 30 years, I don't see it as a big thing, whoever gets my armband will be in a position to potentially score big points, Suarez might score on wednesday but I don't see him running riot.

  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Anyone thinking rvp will be rested probably a good chance to give him a rest before the city game.Have rvp and aguero theres a chance both mightnt start am I mad to be considering bringing in hernandez as my 3rd striker just for this gw and making him capt.

    Cue a hat-trick from Hernandez. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,685 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    For me it is between Hazard and Crouch at this moment.
    I won't captain Suarez, with my luck it is 10 points minimum...
    I'll let you know who i choose, so you will know who will not score more than 2 points.

    Crouch is never a captain choice.

    Rvp along with all the Senior United players should be rested against Cluj next week in CL before the the city game .

    See no reason to rest them now except maybe Rafael who has played a lot lately .

    RVP to rested now or on Saturday?

    it's him or Tevez for me this week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭SpaceCowb0y


    I've gone with Tevez this week, so you can all rest safe in knowing that now he no longer has the armband in my team RVP is going to score a hat-trick:rolleyes:

    Unless i bottle it last minute tomorrow evening and switch it back, in which case we are all screwed!:pac:

    Neither. He will play both and sit out the CL game. May be substituted early-ish in either game if Man U are winning easily.

    Agreed, United will field a weak team again in the CL, they have already won the Group and don't care if they lose games.

    Fergie has his eye on getting the PL title back this year, and after games like Norwich and going behind against QPR, he'll look to 'hammer' West Ham tomorrow. Full strength squad imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    ^ Agreed, with two consecutive poor outings and the decent enough form of West Ham I don't think he'll be resting players. Though whether Hernandez has done enough to get into the first XI and who he'd replace is another matter...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,706 ✭✭✭premierstone


    Mata for me, two reasons, firstly I have swore I will not under any circumstances have that judas basta*d RVP in my team this year and secondly Fulham are cat away from home :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Why no Aguero option? :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭NN215


    last chance for rvp to shine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,133 ✭✭✭Stevecw


    RVP 1 last time...pressure is on him now! Prob pull a hammy in 1st 5 mins


  • Registered Users Posts: 215 ✭✭jolim24601


    Mata and Chelsea have not been doing it up for me these past few weeks, unfortunately my front 3 (Suarez, Tevez, and Ba) don't look so hot for the captain's armband either. I've gotta give it to Sessegnon, who I just transferred in for Nolan.

    He replaced ashley young on saturday didnt he ?

    Ferg should make it a permanent fixture

    Have to agree, but having Berbatov/Suarez and Hazard to choose from, I lean towards Crouch on this one occasion... I need a bit of luck this week.

    This is my fear Hernandez starting potentially diminishes rvps attacking returns as he will play further forward than rvp or even worse at the expense of rvp. Having said that due to kagawa nani and valencia being injured he will probably play a front three of RVP hernanadez Rooney.
