Gameweek 9 Matchday Thread

Paully D

I line out as follows on a -12 (gulp):

Myhill

Bellerin O'Shea Evans

Sanchez De Bruyne (C) Mata Mahrez

Bony Pelle Vardy

Subs: McCarthy, Martin, Fletcher, Muniesa

Good luck all. I know a lot of us have taken hits so hopefully they'll pay off or at worst not see us take too much damage.

Nib

-4 for me, couldn't justify another hit to get in another defender so I'll most likely be playing with 10 this week.

Myhill
Darmian Targett Bellerin
Sanchez De Bruyne(c) Mahrez Payet
Vardy Martial Pelle

McCarthy Westwood Kolarov Ward

Scorpion Sting

I'm on -12 as well.

Schmeichel
-- Martin - Dawson - Souaré
Sanchez - Mahrez - KDB (v) - Payet
-- Ighalo - Costa (c) - Martial

Schwarzer - Surman - Richards - Muniesa


Hate my keepers which was an awful decision on the wildcard. It effectively meant I couldn't bring in Vardy. This gameweek will be damage limitation I think with hits taken galore.

I've quite a few options with my bench, makes picking my team a bit of a pain in the arse.

Potential Underachiever

I can't believe I've signed up the absolute head case Diego Costa, have I lost my marbles or what, I've even captained the crazy mofo. Try and dodge a red card there's a good lad Diego!

Time for the new MC centre forward to nail down his spot.

I'd 100% take the hit there, for Kolarov to Kompany/Zabaleta. If your new signing gets 2 points then it's been a 2 point hit to make a move that will be needed next GW anyway. Plus with Darmian on the verge of a suspension you could easily wind up needing more hits next GW.

Gomez, Souare, Distin, Wanyama


Hopefully few gains this week after all these hits. Holding the WC til now has been a real winner

I'd happily take 50 points right now or even 40 once hazard Costa or KDB don't go crazy!

bellerin nyom targett (darmian Francis)

-4
5.3ml in the bank
can't quite believe I've bought pelle never mind captaining him!
a first begovic clean sheet would be nice as most don't have Chelsea defenders now
still fighting the urge to bring in hazard for mahrez and captain him. the Foxes fixtures after today are making me hold off.
Captaincy choice next few weeks is tricky with THAT front line!

Looking at yours and iroced's teams the benefit of having wildcarded just before the international break Armageddon is clear. Having sorted out your defence, already having KdB etc. If your bench was getting at all ragged coming into this week you were potentially in big trouble.

Necronomicon

Myhill
Bellerin Nyom Soure
Sanchez KdB Payet Mahrez
Pelle Martial Vardy

Hennessy, Wanyama, Dier, Kolarov

(5.0 ITB)

No hits, and I don't think I'll make any last minute ones. If Nyom doesn't start I play with 10, and even if he does I don't fancy more than 2 at most, but I think I'll go with the above.

@Lemlin - I obviously wish you a cracking GW :pac:

jimmii

Too risky to go AOA with Mahrez and Sanchez? Have Hanegeland as my third defender so could well be looking at 10 if I go 3 at the back.

Swiper the fox

Captaining new recruit Costa as well, seemed like an entirely logical decision to me.
I'm not his biggest fan but I'm a believer in the old class is permanent, form is temporary maxim. Costa is a much better player than Pelle, Alexis and Aguero have stepped up, now it's Diego time.



Is Boards a disaster for everybody else, it'll be a miracle if ye even get to read this post, I'm fairly sick of it now:(

Not expecting a high scoring week, so if I reach 50 I'll be happy. Need to drop Kolarov and perhaps Mahrez depending if he plays, but I'm happy otherwise with my team.

Week of the differential innit

extra gravy

Still haven't made the final decision on who to replace Aguero with...gone back to Costa now so will probably just stick with him at this stage.

I wish I could do something like that, but after -12 I still don't have full 11 men squad available.

I even moved captaincy away from Sanchez because of stupid quote from press conference. I am scared of what might happen this week...

Dr. Bre

My first ever minus 8 game week! Hopefully captain bruyne to the rescue

Quite a tasty front 7 all the same. I'd consider doing one more to get rid of Gomez. I mean it's not as if he's going to be back anytime soon. Has to go and it'd probably be for a hit then anyway the way things have gone recently.

SantryRed

First points hits of the season, -8 to get to this:

Ruddy (new)
Bellerin (wat), Darmian (eve), Dawson (SUN)
Hazard (AVL), De Bruyne (BOU), Mahrez (sou), Payet (pal)
Martial (eve), Ighalo (ARS), Pelle (LEI)

Subs: McCarthy, Nyom (ARS), Sinclair (che), Richards (che)



Still deciding between KDB and Pelle for captaincy.

That is the decider alright. I've switched it half a dozen times myself in the last 10 minutes.

Think I'm sticking with KDB though

That's why I did the last -4. Kolarov and Gomez both needed to go next week anyway. Decent if not brilliant chance of Bellerin getting 4 more than Martin this week.

I want to stick with KDB due to his points haul last gameweek. But all the assists were to Aguero :pac:

basillarkin

Have KdeB Sanchez pelle Walcott but I'm going to go with hazard. Could be his turn for a big breakout score this week.

Bertrand Dawson Richards
Sanchez (c) Ayew Mane Mayrez Payer

-8 this week, I can feel a Richards goal this weekend

Mr.Prodston

Wildcard team innit :cool:

Howard
Dawson - Berty - Davies
Sanchez - Mata - Ayew - KdB (c)
Bony - Pelle - Lukaku

Elliot: Jarvis - Souare - Moreno

I could start tinkering and having ditched Hazard before his drop there's a temptation to get him back somehow but I think I need to see a bit of form above the level of "Impending Mutiny" before I go back. My Bony punt is a cheaper version of the Costa one, neither have looked like scoring goals but at least Bony should be in a functioning attack against a 37 year old Distin.

If ye read the transfer thread then my conundrums to reach this team are well known First time not having Aguero in my team since sometime last season

Good luck all in this weekend of opportunity!

With so many hits around -16 doesn't sound that bad. Azpi in for Gomez, maybe?

Last time I dd it I send him back straight away.

I knew I shouldn't log on here just before the deadline:D

I'd be looking at City seeing as they've Norwich at home and Villa away around the corner. Easier to pay off the 4 points quickly.

Says the guy who has both Begovic and Azpi:D

Will wait for more news about Kolarov.

You never know...

Chelsea defence is a nice differential to have now, they have to strike back, don't they?

Good luck everyone, will follow all the action at work this afternoon, except the early game that I have no interest in really (fpl wise).

Rikand

hmmm, dont have anyone in the opening kick off. will go do a few bits and pieces and get back in time for the madness at 3 PM

maximo31

I'm some dope. Went to make a last minute transfer ; Sinclair out for De Bruyne but transferred Ayew out by mistake instead. Plan was AOA. -8 now. Watch Ayew score big Monday night now.
