Balbuena is yellow flagged if that makes things any easier.....probably still suffering shock after West Ham finally managed to secure a clean sheet:pac:

gammygils

Have Robertson,Mane, Diangana, Bennett & Trippier in my Squad. Already have 2 transfers made for a -4. What chances of 11 players this GW either? :rolleyes:

There’s a chance but less likely I feel with Aguero out

I'm in a similar boat. Don't think it really matters who we play as there'll probably be 3 of them rested anyway

you're correct, but it won't be tonight. not after a loss, and a bad one. his rest will come. 9 games in 27 days are on the way for Spurs. but i'd imagine Poch would even prefer to rest him for the League Cup against Arsenal (he doesn't care that much about cups) than any league game.

wonski

Does Kane ever get rested?

They don't really have alternative, do they?

Son or Llorente, unless he gets injured he keeps playing from what I remember.

Could be taken off if they wrap it up early, though.

My memory is not great, so correct me please.

Burnley on the 15th December (3 days after Barcelona) and the 4th of 4 games in 11 days including tonight looks a prime candidate for resting Kane, IMO.

Depending on if he plays the cup game or not, and with it being a derby I think he will, Bournemouth on the 26th might be the one either, but it is happening at some stage soon unfortunately.

Hard to see him playing each of the 26th, 29th and 1st all the same, so he may get two games off over Christmas (Burnley plus either BOU or WOL on the 26th or 29th) as well as the obvious rest for the FA Cup on 5th January.

That would have him nice and fresh for the second half of the season, starting with a home game against United on 13th January.

Number of games started in a row leading into tonight's game. All competitions.

6-Sterling
3-Sane
1-BSilva
1-Jesus
0-DSilva
0-Mahrez
0-Aguero (inj.)

Read into that as you wish. Most players have had a rest of some kind recently.

the whole year inn

It's worth considering that Sane played little to no Premier League football from GW's 1-4 inclusive, didn't play at all in GW10 and played less than half an hour in GW12.

In fact, he's only played more than 60 minutes in 7 of their 14 Premier League games thus far.

He will get another game off very soon, of that there's no doubt and sure, it could even be tonight, but he's about as fresh as a player playing for an elite team competing in numerous competitions could be at this stage of the season.

Kolasinac - this one is a bit of a wildcard, but bare with me. Dinnery says Monreal has had a couple of setbacks in his recovery and is at least 2 weeks away from a return. He can't defend, and it seems Emery has realised that by switching to the wing-back system, but my God is he good going forward! Say Monreal comes back as early as possible, you should still get HUD, sou, BUR and possibly bri out of him before Monreal becomes a problem. It's a massive punt especially as Arsenal simply don't keep clean sheets, but one that might be worth a shout with those upcoming fixtures.

Monreal trained today.

Johny Cage is his username. Fair play to him, I've done a bad job of flying the Boards FSA flag, he might do a better one.

budgemook

will be doing the Aguero to Auba switcheroo tonight after the deadline but before further price changes. Looks like Aguero is missing out again tonight (according to Twitter he is not pictured at training today) but I don't want to take a hit.

MR NINE

What's the best/most efficient source for team lineups? Im hoping to see some lineups for the deadline though i know it's an outside chance. I usually struggle to find accurate lineups for a good few minutes until some kind soul posts them all up in the match day thread

They are embargo’d till an hour before kick-off in the Prem League so you won’t get any official source. It’s 99% guessing for the most-part

Are you sure? I thought they must release the squads no later than an hour before kick off.

But they are free to release it earlier, don't do it for obvious reasons.

Correct me if I am wrong.

MR NINE

I know it's rare but sometimes team news gets out a minute or 2 before the fpl deadline. It would also be nice to know where to go to find all the correct lineups as soon as they've been announced, even if its after the deadline.

Ancelloti used to name his team the day before. What a legend!

callaway92

Official lineups for Prem League can’t be announced till an hour before kick off. Why do you think all teams are the exact same doing it just 60 mins before kick-off?

Sadly I have first hand experience with this in the job I’m in. Could do with receiving them earlier.
