GW 16 Matchday Thread...Prepare for the HurriKane.

Cartman78

Just checked there - all my main rivals have Hazard and 99.9% of them have Anichebe first sub. I have Defoe so any goal alerts from the game tonight will have me breaking out in a cold sweat

Father Hernandez

F*******cking Hazard

Not like us to drop the ball in here.

Whose to blame ?

Who was designated to be on Chelsea watch at the weekend ?

KevIRL

Amat off the bench for me. Zero chance he repeats his clean sheet heroics from the last round. Once again FF giveth (last nights 13 from 2) and immediately taketh away (Hazard)

Iused2likebusts

Strong front 8 for me so origi off the bench hopefully he starts.

Father Hernandez

Will have Capoue instead of Hazard now. Hoping he can keep up his heroocs from the start of the season and bang in a hat trick tonight

It's annoying he wasn't yellow flagged.

I seen that he was substituted, late on, but thought it was tactical.

The lack of any talk in here about it gave me no reason to doubt my first thoughts.

Williams will come off my bench for Hazard, blessed!

It seemed that there was no mention of it anywhere, would usually have came up on Twitter or other news sources that he was a doubt.

Diomande coming in for Hazard.

Lol.

I've Vertonghen in my team, so if Hull score, it better be Diomande.

I was on jinx Koscielny duty - I did my bit

Iused2likebusts

I've had hazard for 4 gws in total this season. He has returned a total of 6 pts in the previous 3 gws he has played for me. Safe to say I haven't had much luck with him this yr.

wonski

I brought Alonso in for Coleman and benched Defoe. He will come in for Hazard.

The way it goes so far Chelsea won't keep a clean sheet, but it won't be Defoe who scores I hope I am wrong.

Can't wait for all those updates from tonight's games. I have players in six of these games.

You know it's bad when you have to depend on Amat and Fletcher for point


I need Kane and Costa to score big if there's any hope of getting a decent score

Father Hernandez

Any press conference from Citeh regarding Nacho?

Not sure if you left the 's' out on purpose or not, but I laughed!

Hazard out is a disaster as I did Pedro to Siggy last night and kept Hazard. At least Costa(c) will be on pens

My decision to bank my transfer and keep Pedro seems to have worked out. Not often we catch a break in the game.

If he's just being rested though as reported, a fresh Hazard against Palace in the early kick-off on Saturday could do serious damage

Absolutely but still feels like a wasted transfer

Annoying this week for anyone who owns him (which is a LOT), but in the long term you'll probably be glad you own him and it's a transfer you can use on someone else next time round

Ah yeah definitely want him long term but very frustrating for him to miss out last minute, after I'd transferred Pedro out.

I'm in the same boat and I took a hit to get him in!

Hazard out means I'm on double WBA defensive again, Brunt & McAuley!

FFS.

Pickford to make 20 saves vs Chelsea my only hope then.

Karius would have to be one of my worst calls this season!

Dinnery said he was expecting him to miss out. Just opinion I think though.

Good news as a Clyne owner

Gaillimh1976

Adam Smith's 6 points to sub in for Hazard

Is he definitely out or is it just a rumour ??

Constantly happened to me with Dawson of WBA. They list the team in squad number order and he's No 25. Used to give me a heart attack each week!

manual_man

No Can again, what a disaster of a transfer. Amat to come in for Hazard so

Anichebe and Friend not in squad
