    Only two people in top 50 captained Aguero.

    Says as much about a lot of the teams up near the top than anything else. It would depress you looking at some of the teams and thinking GOOD GOD HOW ARE THEY THIS HIGHLY RANKED. the tide will turn though. it will turn :cool:

    Went with Vardy, half regretting not getting lukaku in. Hopefully my c Aguero finally brings in the beans.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Pink Lemons


    The lack of captain Aguero, again, makes me very hopefully of some big gains if he goes nuts today. But then again I've been saying that all season and look where that's got me :pac:

    Tells me that they are watching matches and picking based on form. Rather than past glory. "casual" me arse.

    This is the week lads. This is the week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Nib


    Myhill
    Kolarov Darmian Gomez
    De Brunye Payer Mahrez Sanchez(vc)
    Martial Aguero(c) Vardy

    McCarthy Targett Westwood Ward

    Captained Aguero in the end because I'm a big chicken.

    he is by far the best captain choice in your team

    Just seen a stat that made me very happy, Man City have scored 43 in the last 17 league games against Newcastle. Today has to be day..

    This makes me very, very optimistic if Aguero can bag a few today. We're going high lads!

    Step away from the optimism. No jinxes today please!!

    Newcastle are also the only team in the top 5 divisions in England not to have scored a goal away from home this season.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭Colking


    Begovic
    Francis Cresswell Kolarov
    Sánchez Mahrez De Bruyne(V) Payet
    Martial Vardy Agüero(C)

    Subs: McCarthy Drinkwater Evans Targett

    Come on Aguero :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    This is destined for 0-0. I'm not even gonna bother watching the rest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,651 ✭✭✭greedygoblin


    Myhill
    Kolarov Darmian Dawson
    Anya Sanchez Payet Mahrez
    Martial Aguero Vardy

    McCarthy Bassong Yaya Ward

    Captain Kun to finally repay the faith so many of us have shown in him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Pink Lemons


    McClean yellow


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Nib


    2 saves for Boaz.


  • Registered Users Posts: 687 ✭✭✭DakarVert


    Afternoon Gents!

    Hoping for a high point week, I need it!
    Currently sitting at 726k


    Aguero as Captain again, Hopefully he comes through!!

    The fella thats 1st in the world has a highest finish in 8 years of 370k , 2nd has used bench boost and triple capt first yr playing, 3rd in 4 yrs playing has never finished higher than 900k, 4th bench boost and triple capt played finished 3 millionth in the world the one previous time he has played, 5th all chips played 4 seasons of finishing above 1.5 million finished 300k once.
    Id safely say these people dont really know what they are doing and all the stars have aligned for them to make a great start.

    Now Brunt down, bleeding

    And he is up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Pink Lemons


    Nasty knock for Brunt. Face bleeding


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,256 ✭✭✭✭km79


    the best striker in the league at home to one of the bottom 3?
    look no further


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Even Woodgate & Hargreaves didn't seem as injury prone as Evans. Its like he is made of straw.


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


    Feck, Evans is last sub but what a troll

    As someone who paid the extra 0.2m for Dawson, that feels like vindication.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Evans off injured, Chester in.

    I dodged a bullet there; nearly got Jevans for a hit.


  • Registered Users Posts: 850 ✭✭✭lougal88


    Ffs. Evans in for Shaw and off he goes. My poor luck continues. Only reason I was watching this game. Hope Palace hockey them now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,074 ✭✭✭pmasterson95


    Let WBA concede 6. Wont feel as pissed then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Nib


    Save point for Myhill!


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


    Save point Myhill.


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


    Played Souare instead of a WBA double up so got that much right even allowing for the yellow.

    It's a hammy for Evans according to commentators, bye bye Jonny....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Pink Lemons


    Taking a -4 for Myhill paying off already! Few more save points and we'll be flying


  • Posts: 8,647 [Deleted User]


    Ouch. Evans off early!


  • Registered Users Posts: 687 ✭✭✭DakarVert


    Out of interest, How many minutes does a defender have to play before he gets his 4 point clean sheet?

    Yep.
