    This is the week the "3 Man City players" tactic SHOULD start to bear fruit. Which means they lose 1-0 to Watford.

    Good luck all!

    A feast today and tomorrow before the famine of the international break.

    Am on a stag today so will be spending the day in the pub watching the games, a rare treat. Can't wait.

    Just the 2 for me. Aguero and Kolarov. I'd like to have Silva too but I still think I've the best 2.

    Strippers and football all at once, living the dream. Off to Villa Park myself but have no players playing in that game.

    Just checked and my entire team plays today.

    If Aguero goes mad today, most of this forum should see a nice boost in OR

    Kolarov

    Costa

    Only playing with 6 this week, I'm THAT confident


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,193 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting



    Schmeichel
    --- Darmian - Richards - Kolarov
    Sanchez - Mahrez - Depay - Silva
    Diouf - Aguero (c) - Gomis

    Schwarzer - Surman - Martin - Souaré


    After 3 captain blanks to start the season, I think today could be different although you just never know. I banked my transfer so will have 2 freebies for the international break.

    Playing a 5-3-2 this week...

    Romero
    Gomez - Shaw - Kompany - Richards - Francis
    Silva - Sanchez - Mahrez
    Aguero - Gomis

    I gotta feelin...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,406 ✭✭✭PirateShampoo


    Courtois

    Azpilicueta-Darmian-Clyne

    Pedro-Depay-Mahrez-Yaya Touré

    Wilson-Agüero(c)-Giroud


    I think il get a good result this week after my poor 67 last week :P


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


    Myhill
    Bellerin Gomez Kolarov Targett
    Ozil Pedro Yaya Payet
    Aguero(c) Benteke

    Hennessy, Sakho, Huth, Bentaleb

    Can't remember the last time I played 4-4-2. I've taken a -4 and have been considering bringing Mahrez in for Payet. I thought I was safe to leave the decision until this morning, FPLS were off the mark with predictions :( Still contemplating it but I'm not sure it's worth a -8. Then again, there is a decent chance he'll outscore Payet by 4 points.


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


    If Mane starts and Silva stays below 6 points I think I have an insanely strong team this week with fixtures in mind, famous last words I know.

    Butland

    Kolorov, Richards, Francis

    Mahrez, Mane, Sterling, Hazard

    Defoe, Benteke, Aguero


    Really need a top 500k ranking today at least to kickstart my season.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    -4
    Courtouis
    Kolarov, Cedric, Muniesa
    Sanchez, Chadli, Ayew, Payet, Mahrez
    Kun(C), Costa

    Bench:McCarthy, Gomez, Oxford, Ighalo

    Would be nice to hit at least 50 points this week. Going with Payet over Gomez and I hope it pays off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,830 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Fear of Benteke starting to kick in, really think he could get a brace today. If he does his high ownership will kill me this GW, in a way i have already accepted it.

    One or two changes for me after my -8 this GW so hoping it pays off somehow, Aguero will be my captain, no surprise there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,847 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Gomis (H) to Man United or Westwood (H) to Sunderland?

    Have Shaw in defence too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 309 ✭✭DwightSchrute1


    Fabianski,
    Kolorov, Bellerin, Darmian, (Targett, S Taylor),
    Mahrez, Sanchez, Pedro, Kouyate, Yaya, Gomis, Aguero(c) (Ighalo)

    Wildcard played, hopefully this team can get me a nice points haul over the weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,345 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    Have to say, I'm an awful lot happier seeing Benteke in my lineup and feeling a bit cheeky with Chadli in there.

    My other -4 netted me 10 points so I'm freerolling as such but I think this will have an immediate return.

    Jinx level: High

    Settled on:

    Courtois

    Guzan (home to Sunderland) or Myhill (away to Stoke) ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,778 ✭✭✭Big Pussy Bonpensiero


    Not touching until tonight.. Have 2 transfers for the international break should I need them.

    Excellent team considering you've Costa and Aguero.

    Fair play.

    Tbh its one game really and waiting till GW6 is the correct move IMO.


  • Registered Users Posts: 784 ✭✭✭FrClintPower


    Courtois

    Gomez - Kolarov - Muniesa

    Silva - Sanchez - Mahrez - Payet

    Gomis - Aguero(c) - Benteke

    Still happy with my post-WC team, although I did flirt with the idea of Sanchez+Payet -> Pedro+Ramsey/Ozil. Motivated by the desire to get on a potential Pedro bandwagon as much as anything, but with them all playing today I can keep my powder dry for now. Payet's on the chopping block though.

    If you could get Chadli for Cabaye that would improve the midfield quote a bit IMO.

    Mac: Fletcher - Bassong - Mings

    Start the week on -4. I've got a midfield I'm very happy with, half a defence and Aguero.

    Stay quiet please Yaya, please? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,830 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Yaya v Silva is a big battle this GW IMO, a clear winner will leave the defeated managers crying in the corner.

    That is pretty tasty. What are your subs like though?

    Its rare that the 3oclocks are by such a distance the most relevant part of the gw.

    .1 short unfortunately, wanted to do it myself alright during the week.

    Hennessy, Coloccini, Fletcher and and Ward. Fletcher obviously gets no game time and the other are there for rotation purposes.
    Mahrez doing so well helps make this team look at a lot better than it is. If, or when, he starts to slow down I could be in bother.

    Oh I agree, that's exactly what I'm doing.

    He could rip West Ham a new one though and his ownership is high.


  • Registered Users Posts: 378 ✭✭bezuaua


    Romero

    Bellerín | Kolarov | Gomez (Targett | Oxford)

    YaYa | Sánchez | Mahrez | Depay (Westwood)

    Kun | Gomis | Benteke


    Would like to play Targett (home against Norwich) but instead of who?

    Not the worst even for subs. Fair play.

    Hell yeah, if I was a bit younger and had no kids I'd be watching Soccer Saturday while logged on here with a few nice bottles of beer. It'll be some craic on here if things go well (or very badly)

    As it is I'm driving 80 miles with 4 kids in the car to go to a 3 year olds birthday party, we'll be listening to the teddy bears picnic and if I get really lucky we might have a blast off Taylor Swift:o:P

    No transfers this week, but I'll be keeping a close eye on Pedro, Memphis is on the chopping block.


  • Registered Users Posts: 387 ✭✭El festino


    Depay & Silva to Yaya & Pedro worth -4??
    Mulling over it all morning but can't bring myself to do purely cos of Silva.
    Question is would Yaya and Pedro outscore them..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    It's nice to have Sanchez playing in the early game. A double digit score would be a lovely start to the week.
