    Can't bring myself to bench Phillips even though he is high likely to do nothing. The form is too good.

    Who in his stead?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Grant
    Alonso PVA Rose
    Philips Ozil Sanchez(C) Eriksen(vc) Lallana
    Costa Lukaku

    subs: Pickford Diomande Ake Bellerin

    Hope i can field XI


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


    Randolph
    Rose Daniels PVA
    Sanchez(c) Hazard Alli Pedro Antonio
    Ibra Giroud
    (Baines Barnes Brunt )

    Chickened out of captaining Giroud.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Grant or Hennessey? Neither fixture is appealing.

    De Gea
    Daniel's Walker Ward
    Stanislas SanChez Alli Coutinho
    Defoe Giroud Ibra.

    Jakuopvic or Foster? can't decide. Think Tottenham will score but don't know if hull will keep cleanie


  • Posts: 5,869 [Deleted User]


    On - 8 before Costa.... Contemplating getting rid now for Defoe...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,722 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    -4

    Heaton

    Azpi Pieters Smith

    Pogba Lallana Phillips Alli

    Zlatan Lukaku Giroud (C)


    Foster Brunt Capoue Amat


    Not feeling confident about this atall atall.....never good when you're relying on Giroud in my experience

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,521 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    I too enter this gameweek with great foreboding.

    Forster

    Walker Alonso Holebas (Kingsley)

    San(c)hez Pogba Eriksen Phillips (De Roon)

    Ibrahimovic Benteke Llorente

    I don't think Jakupovic will start. The 2 games he played last week were both cup ties.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,787 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Forster
    Alonso, Friend, Holebas(!)
    Sanchez (c), Pedro, Lallana, Eriksen
    Ibra, Kane, Defoe

    Jakupovic, De Roon, Lovren, Evans

    FT banked


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭GetWithIt


    Will be interested to see how many start with negative points this week. The timing of the Costa-magedon will have hurt many.

    I was planning on banking this week so not too badly impacted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,568 ✭✭✭thewools


    Might keep Costa this GW.. see if he kisses and makes up for next week.. if not I'll have 2FT to reshuffle my team..

    His agent is in China, I can see Diego following him.
    Didn't realise that Spurs have such a poor record against WBA,makes me less worried about no Spurs cover.
    Giroud in for Costa last night with no hits,Stanislas is my other transfer.Hopefully my upward trend of decent scores and green arrows continues.


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


    Heaton
    Alonso, Chambers, Cedric
    Alli, Philips, Sanchez (c), Snoddy
    Giroud, Aguero, Ibra.

    Wildcard intact. -4 taken.

    I fear Giroud being Harry Kane Mark II, as in FSA Bandwagon heartbreaker in 'easy' fixtures but I still caved and got him. It'll gain me value at least if it.goes wrong.

    I'd have feared not having him more...


  • Registered Users Posts: 212 ✭✭Fant11


    Pick two to start from Clyne(Utd a), Holebas (boro h) Philips (Spurs a)? Ty

    Holebas and Philips.


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


    2 from 3: Daniels, Jones, Phillips. The logical mind says bench Phillips but the FPL burnt veteran in me says that this is just playing with fire again.

    Good luck. We have much the same team (except I have Lallana instead of Snodgrass and Walker/Pieters instead of Chambers/Cedric).

    Daniels and Phillips looks the best choice there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,282 ✭✭✭COH


    -8....

    Foster
    Chambers/Pieters/Cedric
    Sanchez(c)/Hazard/Lallana/Alli
    Ibra/Defoe/Benteke


    First time owning Sanchez this season and the standout captain choice... so watch him blank furiously now :pac:

    Bye bye Firmino and Lovren ... Pool fixtures too much of a mixed bag the next few weeks and resisted getting Giroud in because it would have meant having to get Ozil instead of Sanchez.

    What a mess


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


    Yoshida in for Ake for a -4, really tempted by this given Ake move back to Chelsea.


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

    @bendinnery

    Just made the move as I need a playing defender and Yoshida has some good fixtures upcoming. Hopefully he will continue to play with Fonte being in dispute with the Saints.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee


    1 transfer this week, Siggy to Phillips, here we go:
    Heaton
    Pieters Alonso Smith
    Phillips DeRoon SanChez Hazard Lallana
    Ibra Aguero


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


    -4

    Heaton
    Alonso - Holebas - PVA :)
    Sanchez (c) - Alli - Phillips - Lallana
    Benteke - Aguero - Giroud

    Pickford: Capoue - Amat - Evans

    I'm working under the assumption that this week will be a train-wreck so things can only start improving from there.

    It's time for a hero to step up to ensure the GW doesn't come to a sticky end....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,303 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    WC activated straight after last GW so here goes:

    Randolph (Grant)

    Rose, Monreal, Chambers (Jones, Yoshida)

    Pedro, San(C)hez, Alli, Lallana (De Roon)

    Defoe, Zlatan, Giroud

    The Costa conundrum kind of screwed me over a bit. Would have Costa in for Giroud & Philips for Pedro. Felt I needed Chelsea cover.

    Overall, happy enough with that team.

    Will probably hate it this time tomorrow

    Grant
    Rose Daniels Chambers
    Sanchez Lallana Phillips Stan
    Aguero Ibra Kane

    Took a last minute hit for Charlie D, hopefully will pay off over the next 3 fixtures.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭tailgunner


    Heaton
    Alonso, Pieters, Brunt
    Sanchez (c), Lallana, Alli, Pedro
    Giroud, Kane, Ibrahimovic

    Pickford, Clayton, Ake, Amat

    -4. Switched to 3-4-3 having successfully gone with 3-5-2 for weeks. So long Anichebe, you served my bench well.

    Really need to sort out my defence next week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,270 ✭✭✭clairewithani


    J Rod /Redmond or Townsend guys?
    At a wedding yesterday, slept till now.:(

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


    Squad's a bit of a shambles tbh but managed to string this together. Need to wc but had wanted to hold it so I may end up doing it this week. Anyway

    -4
    Foster
    Holebas - Chambers - Pieters
    Haz - Phillips - San(c)hez - Firmino
    Defoe - Aguero - Kane

    3 players in the early kickoff will set the tone. I really need a few heroes to step up and get this show back on the road.


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


    #THFC: Lloris (C), Walker, Dier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose, Wanyama, Dembele, Eriksen, Dele, Kane.

    Albion team v @spursofficial: Foster; Dawson, McAuley, Olsson, Brunt; Fletcher, Yacob; Chadli, Morrison, Phillips; Rondon


  • Registered Users Posts: 674 ✭✭✭carnie


    I have a feeling I'm going to be having a bad week.

    Heaton
    Pieters, mcauley, Alonso
    Stanislas, Ali, Eriksen, Sanchez, Philips
    Ibra, Negredo

    Without dropping Costa it didn't really leave me with much funds to sort out a half decent replacement up front. I'm banking on Watford's midfield to be the weakest link this week.


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


    Randolph
    Chambers Daniels Luiz
    Alli Sanchez (c) Hazard Phillips
    Aguero Gray Giroud

    Subs: Grant Mee Nyom De Roon

    Made a lot of ground recently and decided to strike with the WC while the iron was hot. It helped that I also desperately needed rid of Costa, Carroll, Amat and some other dead wood.

    Randolph ( grant )
    Daniels rose mee ( brunt chambers)
    Sanchez captain , Alli stanislas Pedro (Phillips )
    Giroud Ibra Kane

    Think I could have a fair few points on the bench this week !

    Few punts and risks taken
    No Liverpool
    No hazard


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,672 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Heaton
    Alonso Jones Pieters
    Sanchez(c) Lallana Yaya Siggy

    Giroud, Ibra, Lukaku
    Subs
    Hennessy, Philips, Chambers, Love


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


    Have Brunt on the bench as I think it was the correct call with Ali and Philips Alonso in this game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Walker and rose wing backs again. I'll be getting one of them for Alonso in 2 gws.


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

    If I got Rose then my good friend Ben Davies would probably end up getting a run of games :pac:


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


    Almost Everyone in top 6 of money league has a diff captain which makes it very interesting
    Leader has captained hazard who I sold
    So that's a worry !
    Then we have Kane , giroud x2 , pogba
    And me with Sanchez
    If he could go crazy this week that would be nice

    Crazy with points i mean
    Not crazy like costa :D


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


    I was half tempted to captain Rose. Stuck with Sanchez though.

    Foster
    Alonso Pieters Rose

    Taking a punt on Crouch for a couple of weeks while Bony is away. Swapped Origi and Costa for himself and Aguero.
