Our usual post-Gameweek members’ article is up next as we check in on some of the standout performers across the previous weekend’s ten matches.
There’s cause for optimism in north London after Spurs and Arsenal hit a combined nine goals, while our new expected goals data offers plenty to ponder at Manchester City.
Elsewhere, Man United and Chelsea’s Belgian big-hitters have struggled to convince as Watford’s Samba star continues to catch the eye.
Anyone notice who is not even on the City bench?
The Undertaker?
Skin ed.
Ota, Silva D.
Bingo! The only 2 who aren't a guessing game imho.
Agreed.
Is that old tramp who smells of pee
LOL! I caught this one. very funny
And his dog...
I wrote last week that I felt the time seemed right for Bernardo Silva to join the starting merry go round for City....and so it seems now with back to back starts.
Do we need to factor him in to merry go round now as well?
He's a problem on top of a problem for City picks IMO...
And Gundog. Peps first transfer when he went to City, and a firm favourite of his.
Yep..him as well..Sheesh.
This. If he stays fit he will be starting before long. The fact Pep has managed to convert two attacking wingers/inside forwards into the deep playmakers vital to his system is a testament to his managerial skills. However Gundogan is proper conductor and if he can stay fit he will be a big part of the side.
Expecting Sterling, Jesus, Sane front three at the weekend. Don't see Aguero (or Bernardo) starting 3 games in a week with Napoli and Arsenal coming up.
yeah I feel kinda dumb now doing lukaku>aguero last night
Exactly what I think
With KDB and Silva behind them
Totally agree. Playing sterling and Jesus then getting rid of both
I hope your right.
Rage wc coming
Pep is a mad man. 😆
seriously regretting lukaku to kun last night
not only because kun starts, but because sane doesn't and bernardo does
safe to suggest sane will start this weekend, and i expect sterling to too
leaving one of kun/jesus, and jesus was rested vs burnley...
Bet Sane doesn't start at the weekend now.
agree
Think I will keep Jesus then...
See who plays what tonight
We already know..
Early transfers are definitely not worth it when it comes to Pep being involved...!
Sané nailed for the weekend.
Rest is unknown.
I think everyone is reading too much into this line up and my money would be on aguero starting this weekend
@Bemba, Brazil and Argentina play their next friendlies in Europe so travelling distance won't be an issue.
that's good news to some extent. I just really worry about pep during november/december. It's a really bad feeling
You won't get many league starts in a row around those times from either.
Been wrestling with whether to dump Sterling for Richarlison this week, probably going to have to happen in next few days now. I can't afford to eat another Sterling benching and possible RLC 1-pointer as comfort.
Only way this is resolved is if one of the City outfield players picks up an injury. 😉
Two...see above....
if he puts in a below par display today, we can surely rule him out?
La(c)azette.
Seriously looking at it.
All of the big 3 for ARS didn't even make the bench.
Agreed, Kola, Kos and Monreal all nicely rested.
Haha, I meant Sanchez, Ozil and Laca but that works too.
Hehe, yeah I kniw, was trying ti be funny with no success. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Does Pep play blindfolded darts to select his team ?
Wants Kun to break the record at home and Jesus said he wants to help. He'll come off as soon as he scores.
Haha like the players pick the team sheet
is this official.? coz I like it
Injury to kun or Jesus would solve a lot of problems. My god man! It's only a game. What are u thinking
Kun more likely as we know he is just fitter and better version of Studge
Apart from that happened last time and then Aguero coming back from injury killed all of us Jesus owners...1
I hate owning city players, never know if there gonna start two is stressful enough, glad I don't own 3
Silva and Ota are the only ones worth it.
I might hold then go jesus to lukaku when fixtures get better for united
Not true. Stones KDB Walker are all good options
Walker is a card magnet. Stones ate paint chips as a kid. KDB very good.
Ryan
Azpi Davies Otamendi Ward
Salah Silva Richarlison
Kane Jesus Vardy
Elliot Jones RLC Carroll
Got 2FT. Should i do Davies + RLC to Dunk + Choupo?
With both Jesus and Kun starting today...
which looks better for next 6?
1) Jesus + Oatamendi
or
2) Kun + Ward/Mee
I asked next 6 as although Kun is a hit will Oatamendi cover him over Mee?
Ask pep, bad answer but no one knows who will play
I guess Jesus is not safe captain choice this week which leaves me to choose from Hazard or Kane if I dont bring in Sanchez..
Going Salah
Think he scores 1 so safe 7-8 pts atleast
Kane looks blank incoming considering they not scored at Old trafford since almost 4 years..Plus bailly back too
Going Coutinho, he must be due 1.
Jesus > Laca
Whats the best thing for us now? 3:0 City first half with Kun breaking the record? That should give us some clue in the way subs are made in 2nd half.
Lol, who am I kidding, its Pep. Delph at 9 for the weekend.
Aguero to come off for a rest as soon as they are 2 goals ahead and both Aguero and Jesus will start at the weekend. You heard it first here.
Think you correct as Jesus got his rest last week
If you say so.
So after blindly punting on Lukaku to Aguero last night, I now have 3 City attacking players who are starting in the League cup...
Pep; you’re brilliant but stuff of FPL nightmares
Luka to Kun was blind...Luk will play 100% all matches and only chel match looks blank in next 6
Plan to make Kola to Daniels and then to invest the money in upgrading Sterling to Salah?
Elliot
Walker Jones Simpson Kola
Sterling Atsu Eriksen
Kane Kaku Jesus
Subs: Fabianski, Carroll, Chalobah, Mbemba
burn him. he's a timetraveling lepracaun witch.
Can't recall it specifically, but I'm sure Sane only starts and plays >60 minutes at home. Still fancy Sterling to start Saturday. Less so Aguero..
that happened a lot last season yes. fingers crossed
Best team news ever......
Okazaki given the night off.... 🙂
Surman relaxing in the dugout.
Nice.
Good for him to have proper rest to assist Vardy this weekend.
Don’t mind that if he gets one himself...
Loves the BAPs too.. 😉
Ideas on this team please, 2ft, 0itb
Pope
Azpi Otamendi Cedric Davies
Hazard Sterling Gross
Kane Jesus Vardy
Elliot RLC T.Carroll Mbemba
Cheers
Needs some ARS

Aguero / Jesus
The one who plays the whole 90 tonight wont start this weekend
If Jesus is benched 2 PL games in a row he's gone for good.
Pep's just getting Aguero back up to speed. Nothing to see here.
For Napoli
If Pep sub Kun early i believe he will start at the weekend.Napoli-Man city is on Wednesday.I don't think that Kun will not play for 8 days.
Aguero owner?
Yeah see above
Jesus Aguero... the one who plays less mins today starts on Saturday
Can see Aguero subbed off after scoring one goal and playing 60 tonight. Which imo would mean only one of jesus or sterling starts at west brom
Can anybody give me a link to the Manchester United and Manchester City bench?
I use liveacore
Livescore
Thanks!
6 years, 7 months agoMy worry is kun stays on until he breaks the record. Better score early
