The City defence has completely flown under the radar for me. Not quite sure how I've missed this, but 5 clean sheets in 7, 4 in a row, with Stoke (H) and Burnley (H) their next two games.

Which one of the CB's misses out when Kompany makes his monthly appearance?

Given the money spent on Stones, you'd have to imagine Otamendi.

They have only conceded 2 goals
Had otamendi in my WC team took him out due to his fondness for yellows !
He has got yellows but also got a goal that week !
Kompany is the problem
I have been considering stones or walker ahead of their next 2 games but don't think I'll have the transfer to spare
If I was on WC I'd certainly be getting one
Ederson also attracted bonus yday
Must be for his passes !

I highly doubt a transfer fee would have any bearing on team selection! Kompany might not get straight back in the team if they keep defending as they have to date.

I've had walker a couple of weeks now. Feel he is safest option, and while he hasn't been contributing in terms of attacking points, he has looked dangerous.[/quote]
I think he is the one alright
Rotation always a fear
Perhaps lessened by mendy being out but Danilo , Sterling can and have played RWB

Random enough question - but has anyone been added to a random league -

a league called "€200 League | charity10k.com" just appeared in my list of leagues - which I most definitely did not join.

The League was set up by Division. He made a post about it a while ago so you definitely joined. It.

Did Division just renew a league? I am in a few leagues I joined last year and was automatically included when the league was renewed even though I didn't technically join them this year.

Its possible it was renewed but I don't think so. I'm 90% sure he posted this year,

Maybe I didn't expand the point enough - Guardiola thought enough of Stones to spend a huge transfer fee on him. Otamendi was already there.

Therefore I think Guardiola would lean towards Stones if one were to be dropped.

Plus Stones hasn’t done much of his crazy jittery stuff so far this season

Bleating Lamb

Was on wildcard this week,considered bringing in Delph to midfield as cheap midfielder who would play out of position as left back in Mendys place.Didnt pick him in end,went for Davis ( Southampton).

Would picking Delph have being a good move points scoring wise?

Delph not nailed on at LWB though.

Delph/Sane/Danilo could all play there. Andy King is 4.5 and starts for Leicester.

He's the opposite of a good oop player. A midfielder playing in defence can only gain one clean sheet point, and has far less attacking points potential.

Based on what ?

He'll be playing centrally, and is lethal. Pretty simple. Get him in before the plebs and enjoy the early hauls.

Plus they're also away to Crystal Palace next week.


Hmmm....I'm looking to offload Alli as I have Kane and Davies anyway, and have no Chelsea cover for next week.

I was still looking at De Bruyne though as well. I do already have David Silva though as cheap(ish) City coverage.


So, Alli for De Bruyne (Stoke (H)) or Hazard (Palace (A))?

km79

Would not be selling Alli before homegame against Bournemouth
It's better than either of those 2 fixtures and he has a one game int ban too

Iused2likebusts

Alli got 2 assists the previous week and hit the post yesterday. No way should anybody be taking him out before Bournemouth at home.

City didn't play traditional wing backs yesterday, when they were defending they had a flat back 4. Going forward, the 2 "fullbacks" tuck into midfield and played from there. With the ball it was pretty much....

---

Otamendi

---

Stones

---

---

Walker--F'dinho--Delph

---

Sterling

---

Silva

---

DeBruyne

---

Sane

---

Jesus

Walker and Delph didn't get forward at all and for me that was the reason Delph played over Danillo. It was a tactic Pep did a lot at Bayern with Alaba/Lahm as the FB/DMs. If he persists with it, the FBs/WBs are not an attacking option, and no chance Sterling/Sane comes in to those positions.

That said, yesterday may have been a one off for Chelsea away.

Wilberto

Well, that's me told then! :pac: :pac:

"False full backs" as they call it in pes

Morzadec

Any idea on long term prospects Chancel Mbemba and Suttner?

Both were dropped yesterday

callaway92

Definitely wouldn't be confident on Mbemba becoming a regular starter.

For 4.0 though he's still not a bad option. I'd still rather have a sub at 4.5 who will always be starting though.. Yedlin is 4.4

slimshady007

Newcastle looked pretty solid yesterday without Mbemba so hard to see him get back in unfortunately unless there's injuries after the international games.

Morzadec

Mbemba 89% to a rise anyway so should be value safe bench fodder for a long while at least even if he doesn't play.

I imagine Suttner should be back in for Everton. Looking at his stats from last year he seems a very attacking left back so maybe they went for a more defensive option against Arsenal?

Yeah but Alli's problem is £9.5m. This year value is trickier and I'm not sure building team value will help if it goes on like now since there's almost no mid price performers. So you either get a premium or a cheap player (for every position). United Jones is a rare exception.

That said for this GW WCers, it's easier to fit him in with Aguero & Morata out.

Any tech heads in here ? Although I doubt this is really ‘tech’ but it is for me.

My TV screen gets very fücking hot. So hot that I can feel it makes a difference to the temperature of the room which is already hot enough.

I’ve searched online to resolve the problem but when I google ‘tv hot screen’ I get nothing but info about plasmas.

I’ve got a 40 inch Samsung LCD.

So my question - why type of tv screen will NEVER heat up or get hot.

I can’t find a forum on boards that might be able to help.

jimmii

I would have thought off topic would have been more suitable! There is definitely a tech forum knocking around somewhere on my phone so not so easy to find.

Edit: http://touch.boards.ie/forum/9 should be able to get some help there.

Have you checked the back of it to see if it's covered up with dust? If there isn't air getting into the vents, it will over heat, also if there are other heat soruces nearby like a radiator etc it may cause the tv to become too hot.
