    Ah, you have to have Hazard imo. But...I was thinking of Pedro in as a 5th mid. Would mean dropping Rashford or Jimmi.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,129 ✭✭✭NabyLadistheman


    I remember playing around with Pedro instead if Hazard during my first Wildcard. Had a moment of clarity & went with Hazard, he scored a hat-trick. Boy was I relieved


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,335 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Pedro is one of the biggest FF traps
    Never mind in a DGW
    Just don't

    Ryan
    Laporte Lindelof Schlupp
    Hazard Sterling Pogba Son
    Aguero(c) Rashford Jiminez

    + Bench Fodder

    I keep coming back to this tbh. Getting Kane in just sacrifices too much I think, much as I would like to have him

    Same could be said of Hazard in fairness. 8 goals from open play all season.

    I just tried a 433 with kane aguero and rashford up top
    I am .1 off getting a united defender in and will have Wanb playing who may not even be fit.
    Every team I try with him decimates the defence and weakens midfield

    Also I would like to have a little bit of fun with this chip and welcome back a few friends.I can easily get in PVA but Schlupp seems the more sensible pick.
    I also think Ashley Young could be a gem...........he offers far more than Lindelof and I can easily afford him without Kane

    Also very very true
    But I think I would rather be disappointed owning Hazard for these fixtures when its a free hit to own him than ever ever fall into the Pedro trap
    I predict he gets injured in the first game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,335 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I think Hodson Odoi could start one of those 2 games as well

    What’s the difference in scoring from open play and a set play?

    Exactly
    Milo would not be 4th mid in lots of FH teams without set pieces !

    Exactly, so no point arguing Hazard not on form (FPL wise) & using pens as an example

    For example Aguero wouldn’t be PL top scorer without pens but with them makes him more appealing

    You are relying on penalties, in which case you may as well get Milivojevic for €4.5m less!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,788 ✭✭✭Benimar


    My potential Kane/no Hazard team:

    Kepa
    David Luiz, Lindelof, Duffy, Schlupp
    Sterling, Pogba, David Silva
    Aguero, Kane, Rashford


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,129 ✭✭✭NabyLadistheman


    Any viable United midfield options besides Pogba? Lingard, Mata or Martial?

    Actually mcArthur instead of Milo leaves me with this:

    Foster

    Schlupp -- LaPorte -- Duffy -- Luiz

    Haz -- Pogba -- McArthur -- Sterling

    ---- Kane -- Aguero

    Would you consider AWB instead of McArthur? Good with bonus and as likely a CS vs Huddersfield than Mcarthur scores over the two games
    If you hate 5-3-2 you can convince yourself that Schlupp is a midfielder

    that's a fair point, had not considered it. Is AWB guaranteed to be fit

    It could be any of the Palace back line to be fair - though he is the best (Tomkins is 4.3).

    I am going with a 5-3-2 at the moment - It looks and feels wrong but that might just be because the default for people is a 3-4-3 or similar.

    It probably has a lower overall points ceiling but a higher floor


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,158 ✭✭✭✭hufpc8w3adnk65


    I’m on this at the minute and a big thanks to this thread is why

    Foster
    Schulp Duffy lindelof
    Dilva Pogba Hazard Mili
    Kun Kane Rash

    Hamer AWB Romeu Simpson
    .3itb

    Choices between now and deadline are
    Foster
    Hazard
    Dilva

    V
    Ederson
    Pedro
    Sterling

    Thoughts on Sane instead of Son? Sane, when he plays, can be FPL gold. He should get 1 guaranteed match.

    I just know the leicster bournmeouth game is gonna be a goalfest with vardy brooks and wilson getting points. If Perreira finally delivers things are getting broken

    Starting to lean that way myself! Whilst I fancy Hazard to outscore Pedro, I’d imagine Ederson and Sterling will outscore Dilva and Foster by quite a bit

    Sarri expects Hudson-Odoi to be starting 75-80 per cent of the games in the future, but for now, the winger can expect maybe two or three games from the beginning due to the busy schedule. #CFC

    Jesus now what ...........4.2...........can keep Kane .........aaggghhhh

    Sarri: "We have some players who are a little bit tired now. Kante, Giroud, Hazard played three matches [sic] in seven days and now we are not in October, it's different. I had the whole squad only yesterday. Yesterday, I saw somebody was a little bit tired."

    Ah **** off.

    First template draft - losing money on Vardy was hella annoying last night :mad:


    Ederson

    Hazard | Pogba | Son | Sterling


    Agueriooooo (C) | Batshuayi


    0.9m ITB



    Having typed it out and squinted at it, I'm not sure I'm happy with Son or Lindelof, tempted by Mahrez for some odd reason :confused: ....will tinker away for another bit


    Take 2:


    Ederson


    Luiz | Schlupp | Lindelof | Duffy


    Hazard | Pogba | Hudson-Odoi| Sterling


    Agueriooooo (C) | Kane





    Getting closer I think....Hudson-Odoi is a gamble for sure but I can see him doing damage from the bench even.


    Alternative options for me are:
    Ederson -> Foster
    Kane -> Higuain
    HudsonO -> Mahrez


    :confused::confused:

    No love for Aguero Jimenez and Rashford no? Was gonna go with Lukaku this weekend but he's injured.

    Lukaku is more of a doubt by looks of it I'd be confident Rashford plays just don't think where gonna get a confirmation on that before tomorrow deadline.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,158 ✭✭✭✭hufpc8w3adnk65


    Think I’m set on avoiding potential Hazards

    Ederson
    Schulp Lindelof Duffy
    Pogba Sterling Pedro Mili
    Kun Kane Rashers

    Hamer
    Hudson Odoi
    AWB
    Simpson

    .7 itb hmmmmm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,466 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    He's asking to be sacked if he rests Hazard with top 4 in the balance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,996 ✭✭✭✭billymitchell


    Think I will settle on this

    Foster
    Luiz, Laporte, Schlupp, Lindelof
    Sterling, Deulofeu , Pogba
    Higuain, Kane, Aguero


    I think its the best I can do with the money I have.

    Glad to see the Pedro train is picking up some steam. I will take full responsibility if he gets a couple of goals, and similarly will avoid the thread if he doesn’t do much


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,528 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    Dilva Higuain and Young have been named as differentials on FFS so expect more FH teams with them included.

    I havent paid a lot of attention to him recently, but is Mahrez really worth having in your team. Havent seen him score much recently, nor finishing a full 90 for city that often. Be better to have Dilva, or use the money for a another premium defender


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85 ✭✭supasoumi99


    Pending any further news on Rashford I have gone for the following;

    Ederson
    Young, Schlupp, Luiz, Azp
    Hazard, Pogba, Alli, Sterling
    Aguero, Rashford

    Had Kane in all week but feel I have a much stronger team all round if I sacrifice him...could easily change back though!
