    That's tricky. Alot to contend with especially in defense. Pogba may not play also. I think you should be looking at a -4 anyway. Pogba to Arnie Chilwell to Robertson off the top of my head.

    Is a - 4 to sell a player my opponent has a bad move? I mean shouldn’t I keep them all as blockers or is that too simplistic?

    Look, your opponent may even sell Pogba :p I just don't see him starting after playing 90 in both games gw37(and gw36 too) and with the fa cup final to come. Up to you ultimately. Robertson is a no-brainer I think anyway. But chances are one transfer won't cover you for 11 starters. Up to you what you want to do after that.

    Ya Robertson is a good call and is another blocker aswell

    Why Milner over Robertson?

    At least as likely to start, plays further forward, on set pieces


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭remoteboy


    Do we think Robertson will start. He’s been rested before every CL game lately.

    Very likely Klopp plays full strength against Brighton. 2 week gap to CL final, last chance to field the same team he wants to play in the final.

    It will be a full strength team. Not a shadow of a doubt about it.

    Looking at it again although I think milner is the best defender pick in the game this week it probably isn't the ideal move for your circumstances. Simpson and chilwell to Robertson matches your opponent and a palace defender probably makes more sense as you have Ryan to play so maybe no need for a gk transfer.

    Play J Ayew or take a - 4 punt on Smalling to Milner?

    Ya I’m thinking Robertson to block him and if I was going - 4 getting a palace player I’d have 4.9 mil who would you get?
    Could just do Chilwell to Robertson with no hit and start
    DeGea/Ryan
    Robertson Dummet Lowton
    Salah Pog Gud Sterling Willian
    Kane Jesus

    Forgot I had VVD so likely to play Ayew but he was brutal last Gameweek.

    Anyone.catch Peps conference? Is Sane likely to be rested this week? Really need him to match or out score Sterling.

    He was, but they are also playing Stoke at home this weekend so who knows really.

    No matter what decision you make anyway it'll most likely be the wrong one looking at how the last few weeks have gone. :pac:

    Hi peeps,

    Soz to be annoying, but any body know how to check if opponents have chips left? cant see it on his transfer history (apart from wildcard played)

    Trying to stalk him down for cash, have 20 points to make up.

    Yeah it's on their gameweek history on desktop site :)

    It should list chips played and when on the history page. If it's not there suggests it hasn't been used. Bit annoying if that is the case!


  • Registered Users Posts: 383 ✭✭coronaextra


    Thanks for the replies, yea its under "View Game Week History" .

    The bugger still has bench boost left to play :(

    Probably not the best week to use that chip, however, at least worth 6 points minimum. so that going to be 26 I,m going to have to make up if I,m going to win the league title.


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


    Who played through the middle for utd when they played Brighton martial or rashford.

    SofaScore had Martial lined up on the left with Rashford through the middle and the heat maps would back that up.

    Ya as above Martial was cf but I follow united and 3/4’s of our lads are on holidays. We looked brutal last few games. If it was me I wouldn’t buy any of our strikers

    This is the one week it probably isn't, likely 2 of his players minimum will be dropped

    Thinking I might just bring Robertson in for Chilwell and not do a -4 and hope vardy stays quiet!

    Any word on Dilva?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,885 ✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Surprised to see some are considering using their FT and taking hits for defenders.

    I've no keeper (DDG and fodder) and 2 defenders definitely out but I couldn't care less.

    Wanna make sure I field 11


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,656 ✭✭✭Western Pomise


    Took the eye off the ball a bit the last few GW’s.....only after realizing I have TC left....have it on Salah as I think Pool will raise their game tomorrow.

    Have Kane and Jesus in the ranks as well but think I will stick with Mo.

    10 points behind in my money league. The guy in the lead will almost certainly captain Salah tomorrow. I think Salah is the obvious choice and should earn the most points.
    Should I also captain Salah and hope my other players make up the difference or do I captain Kane who he doesn't have as I'm chasing?
    I feel this one decision could make all the difference!
