Gameweek 17 Matchday Thread

Paully D

Interesting statistic from the NBC commentators:

Before today, Silva's last 5 goals for Manchester City had come away from home.

United XI v Villa: De Gea, Jones, Carrick, Evans, Valencia, Fletcher, Mata, Rooney, Young, RvP, Falcao

I know I've asked you this question zillion times but what is the site that gives you this info? FPL discovery?

Bony and Siggy benched for Swansea.

Silva at the double!

Ziegler1988

Wow, no Siggy or Bony :eek:

#Swans team v @HullCity: Fabianski, Richards, Fernandez, Williams (C), Taylor, Ki, Carroll, Shelvey, Dyer, Routledge, Gomis

#Swans subs v @HullCity: Tremmel, Bartley, Rangel, Fulton, Emnes, Barrow, Bony.

Seven changes for the #Swans. Sigurdsson (foot), Britton (knee) and Montero (hamstring) all ruled out of today’s fixture with minor knocks.

Now for a Palace goal

You have to be kidding me.

Dzeko last week, now Bony:mad:

I can't get this third spot right.

Should have / would have posts about to happen in 3...2...1...

km79

oh my god
all my progress last few weeks is going to be wiped out

Ziegler1988

Yaya -4 to start over Siggy won't kill me now regardless at least

FutureGuy

Thought about Silva but hadn't scored in PL for a year. Meh.

AboutaWeekAgo

Wow, no Siggy or Bony is already after giving me a boost before a ball is kicked in the 3pms.

qwabercd

Bottled my intended transfer of Silva in for Siggy. Sigh.

Scored against West Ham at Upton Park around October time, if I remember correctly? Cut inside the defender and curled in a lovely strike?

wonski

Did i say it before that I was 0.1 short to get Silva in for Siggy:mad:

All because of Dzeko dropping, who I replaced with Bony this week:mad:

At least Zabaleta did something. Have Boyd and Clyne on bench so not all is lost.

basillarkin

Feck have bony capt as I thought he was rotation proof, is he even on the bench?

stiffler123

That'll do Merlin, that'll do.

Did FG mean he hasn't scored at home, he's scored a fair few goals in 2014.

Smartguy

Only regret is I did not captain silva

He is, and there is a chance he will play.

Harvey Low Fat Milk

Literally flipped a coin on Silva and Eriksen, went with Eriksen. Can't win em all but at least I have Zabaleta.

Captaining Yaya over RVP is looking like a huge mistake now

finnharpsboy

4th place in my work league has silva captained

Ziegler1988

Very close for the two baps atm. Demi ahead of Zaba and Kolarov even though he doesn't have an assist

Ace2007

of course - Palace score goal that should have counted but gets ruled out

Nice for owners of city defenders

Wow, 3 players already not starting from my first 11

If you have the FPL statman chrome extension it is available there too.

Silva off for a rest

q2ice

Silva off so no more city goals :pac:

Paully D

Silva off. Job done and should be nice and fresh for Boxing Day.

PARlance

Oh man, I was going to transfer Siggy out 4 times and bring in Silva on each occasion. I obviously would have captained him too. I make it that I'm down at least 100 points......

Ziegler1988

Siggy is going to plummet in price this week

Invincible

Giroud instead of Bony in for Dzeko might have been for the best ....

Exact same here! He also has Clichy so that coud've have been an extra incredible start for him! Luckily none of the 2 below me have Silva!

Good few would have sold him back when his injury was meant to be longterm.
