    To those with Ayew on your bench.

    You shouldn't have a 7m midfielder if you won't play him at home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,058 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    Goal gomis


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,058 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    Ayew assist


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭EoinAFC


    Get in Gomis!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 687 ✭✭✭DakarVert


    Goal Gomis!
    2-1 to Swansea


    3rd goal now from Gomis or Mata and I'm sorted. :D

    Ah would ya stop. Playing a United defence who haven't conceded all season. Went with 4 at the back this week all my defenders had quality fixtures. It all depends.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,358 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Gomis.

    At least that's something. Though Ayew is slightly hurting me.

    Against a team who haven't conceded yet this season? Who should I have him for?

    Richards against an useless Sunderland attack, Liverpool against an injured West Ham attack, Gomis who just scored, Silva, Sanchez, Mahrez?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Romero finally being found out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,022 ✭✭✭jamesbere


    Come on ayew


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 704 ✭✭✭frisbeeface


    Need to get on either the Gomis or Ayew bandwagon!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,594 ✭✭✭MarkSRFC21


    Fcuk off ayew. Again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I'd agree with Slick's comments on Ayew. I certainly wouldn't have him on my bench instead of the likes of Richards. Sunderland's "useless" attack had scored 4 goals in 3 games prior to Villa.


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


    One more please Mr Ayew.

    Probably one of the worst teams in the PL. Goals came against Leicester, Norwich and Swansea defences, none of whom are good.

    When you take into account how good United have been defensively and already having a Swansea attacker, easy to pick someone else over doubling up on Swansea attackers against United

    You must have some mf!


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Ayew not entertained?

    Ayew going to score more?

    Ayew my player of the season so far?

    Ayew potentially the new Mickey Turner?

    Yes :)

    Ayew going to stop with these puns?

    Never :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,594 ✭✭✭MarkSRFC21


    ayew red would be nice


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Never bench a Swansea mid against ManU

    Fancied Bournemouths chances of a clean sheet over Ayew. Went 4-3-3 for the 1st time in a long long time. Hazard Mane and Mahrez in mf


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


    At least Gomez is consistent!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,012 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    Knew I should have played my bench boost this week. Damn Ayew and Ward on the bench

    I'd have played him instead of Richards. Villa are shít in defence.

    I would never spend 7m on a midfielder you might bench. It's a waste of money and you're asking for pain like today.

    Gomis getting a goal makes up for losing out on the clean sheets! Now Memphis to get in on the action and it's not a total disaster!

    I benched Payet too. He's a 7.5m mid

    Hear you.
    Oh the choices we make!
    Barring City everyone looks like conceding.

    Even allowing for playing Richards. Couldn't drop one of Mahrez, Silva, Sanchez, Aguero, Wilson or Gomis.

    do many actually have Fellaini in their squads?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,058 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    Shelvey booked

    Probably the worst team in the Premier League as things stand IMO, but their issue isn't scoring goals - it's conceding them. Villa are excellent bedfellows with the aforementioned teams defensively, with their only clean sheet coming against Bournemouth.

    It's all about opinions but personally, I think playing a £4.5m defender against a team who had scored in every single game thus far over Ayew at home was a crazy call.

    Is that the win for me guaranteed? I've been watching Dublin Mayo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,557 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Can't agree with this 'don't bench a 7.0-7.5 player' notion.

    It was Payet I benched rather than Ayew but I figured Targett would score higher so his 4.0 price didn't bother me one bit. It paid off on this occasion but even if it hadn't I'd think it a fine decision.

    Worth catching up on some of the other threads to pick up some advice/tips
    and links to help your game.

    Jeez United are poor. Depay has been 8.5m of pure pish....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,058 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    What was rooney doing.... has to do better there


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


    Rooney messing that up is one of the highlights of my gameweek. Not a good sign.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,942 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Have Ayew & Gomis :D 57(-4)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,058 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    Shelvey off Bartley on


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

    Likewise. Woulda cost me a h2h i think. Would it have been Darmian assist?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,022 ✭✭✭jamesbere


    Depay out for me
