    He's not in some expected lineups I've been seeing. I'd transfer him out if I was you.

    Whoscored have him down to start, think I'll hold on one more week. He'll have a chance off the bench at the very least hopefully


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,952 ✭✭✭Morzadec


    Would you take a hit to get Mkhitaryan out though? I have Wan B to come in for him if I don't.

    Def wouldn't imo, I'd take the punt on Micky maybe starting or getting points off the bench or else just go with AWB who I think is a super solid option this week. Tomkins should be back which makes a huge difference to Palace's defence and Huds have failed to score in 6 of their last 7 PL home games apparently

    Do the majority of us really need predicted line ups or pay any real attention to them. If we did an FSA predicted lineup every week. I reckon we would have the lineups a lot more accurate than the newspapers and as much a chance as FFS of getting them right. Its educated guesswork and for us obsessives we have as much chance of being right as the other obsessives out there. The newspapers couldnt care less if they get the line ups right. For us its something we spend the whole week thinking about and analysing.

    Anyone give Gundog a chance of a start tmrw? It's play him or Mitro for my last decision.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I’m taking a hit to get Mkihitaryan out.

    Arsenal will start with the same front 3 as vs Cardiff IMO.

    The fact I’m getting Hazard in makes it a bit easier to take I suppose.

    I'm thinking Dilva could outscore both Salah and Hazard this weekend

    He has really good underlying numbers. Only a matter of time before he returns a double digit haul the way he’s going.

    Who's the best of the 4.5m keepers to bring in? Upcoming fixtures wise?

    Are you intending to buy two 4.5 keepers or just one and play him every week?

    to buy 2 and rotate depending on fixtures

    At a quick look i'm not sure there's any brilliant 4.5 pair rotating options. Though that said, i'm very much a play-the-same-gk every week type of manager these days. I wildcarded last week and got Ryan(4.5) and Button(4.0 backup) as Brighton's fixtures are pretty good over the medium term (up til around gw16)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Life is much easier with a clear no.1 GK and have a backup that will be getting 90mins when the **** hits the fan, doesnt matter the price of the players. Even with clear rotation choices, the points often will not transpire as expected and it will cause frustration that you weighed up so many factors and it came to nothing

    Begovic and Patricio easily have the best fixtures in that bracket IMO.

    Swapped Alexander Arnold for Ben chilwell of Leicester.

    They have easier fixtures coming up and no CL.

    Well you are going to have to play at least one from Maddison or Walcott anyway as Cairney is injured and I don’t know who walsh is ! And that’s assuming Bilva plays ...........
    I’d probably go 523 or 433 with that team
    West Ham are poison so go with the Everton double up anyway even though I don’t rate Tosun at all
    Assuming you are playing Robertson then I’d probably go with Madison over pereira in a 433

    I’d start zaha
    If he ain’t fit he won’t play anyway. Even a cameo could produce points late on in game

    Bench Stek WaB Walcott Cairney
    Play 4-3-3

    Walcott/Maddison bit of a toss up but not sure about double Eve attack.
    If you aren't gonna play 7m FWs you might aswell get rid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    So I've no Salah. So I now have money on:

    Salah AT
    Salah FG
    Salah 2 or more
    Salah hat trick

    You know what that means guys. He gets 3 assists.

    There is a market for that on skybet and 365

    Winning a free kick/ Pen isn't an assist in bookies. Deflections not an assist.

    Has to be a direct pass
