Mark Back to life, back to normality. Gameweek 8 is finally here as domestic bliss returns to our weekends. With decisions still to be made, our Saturday Surgery Chatroom is now open to collect your thoughts, advice and aimless banter.
If you’ve been hibernating during the break, don’t fret, we’ve collected a fortnight’s coverage here on the Scout in one handy post – view the bumper edition of the Catch-up right here. The Pre-Match preamble is warming up…
Need help choosing my XI, wish I could do 2-5-3
Jaaskelainen - Begovic
Hangeland - Santon - Rangel - Vermaelen - Luiz
Mata - Pienaar - Santi Cazorla - Yaya Toure - Michu
Giroud - Ba - Fletcher
Best MF for 7.7m on WC
Rest of Front 7/8
Bale Cazorla Nolan Pienaar
Ba Jelavic Berbatov
Any help and opinions would be appreciated
Morrison or Michu
asked my sel too haha
At moment I'm looking at:
Jussi (Begovic)
Baines, Jenkinson, Rafael (Ivanovic, RIdgewell)
Nolan, Pienaar, Cazorla, Bale (McAnuff)
Berbatov (C), Tevez, Jelavic
+ no cash.
On the virge of shipping out Ivanovic for a Stoke defender (in light of upcoming fixtures + cash flexibility), thinking either Wilson or Shawcross (the former is super cheap, latter more likely to assist I guess).
Was also considering Ba as an alternative to Jelly.
Suggestions?
Jenkinson on borrowed time now. I've shipped him for Wilson who I've benched this week.
Is the deadline one hour later now, now that the games are forward one hour.
games are forward one hour?
In Australia they are, I should have been more specific so for me the deadline is still one hour and fifteen minutes before the game.
summertime
what? another news I am not aware of?
uh..
? 11.30 as normal.
You're a week ahead mate. Clock change is next week.
In 1h13m
Sorry, I'm in Australia I should have been more specific and we've already put our clocks one hour forward, so just to confirm deadline is in 1 hour and 12 mins.
Yep.
I believe deadline is still the same
It's because of the Day-Light saving time...The clocks in England change by an hour. So for you the kick-off still remains the same time. But for countries where the clock does not change, the kick-off becomes an hour latter. So a 15:00 clock kick which is currently 7.30 for us, will change to 8.30 for us from Oct 28 till Mar 31....Did I explain that well?
Is Sahin playing in the hole behind Suarez?
anyone?
It's been changing a bit within games from what I gather. The majority of the time it's Sahin furthest forward of the mid 3 though.
What is all this I hear about RVP having the flu...
Morning all, have a couple of things not too sure on
At the moment I have it on this...
Foster
Demel | Baines | Hangeland
Cazorla | Michu | Pienaar | Ben Arfa
RVP(vc) | Suarez (c) | Berbatov
Fed | Sterling | Cuellar | Wilson
1) Captain choice right?
2) Bench right, should I be playing Sterling over someone?
WC Team, any changes?
Bego | Gazz
Baines | Cuellar | Simpson | Hughes | McCartney
Cazorla | Bale | Pienaar | Nolan | Sterling
RVP | Tevez | Berba
I'd think about getting some Stoke defensive cover
1ST SUB GUTHRIE OR DEMEL?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Current team:
Jussi (Fed)
Ivanovic Baines Hangeland (Demel, Nelsen)
Santi Bale Michu Pienaar (Guthrie)
Torres Tevez Lambert
1FT + 2.3M in the bank
Save the transfer? Ship Torres and, if so, for who?
Torres>Suarez
y
Have I made a huge mistake by switching RVP to Ba?
May the lord have mercy on your soul...
See what happens over the next three games.
captaincy or transfer? if the latter then in the words of Bemba Da.. OMG!!!
The way this season has gone so far - it'll end up being a very good move.
I hope so. Perhaps should have left it another week. I just don't think RVP is worth that price when he's not the centre of everything. And when I saw Ba was the leading point scorer, and that it's a local derby, well I just had to get him in.
I am now praying to god.
He is more or less the centre of everything to do with the penalty box and goalscoring.
Yes, doubly so if you didn;t have the free transfer to put the money somewhere else.
I had two free transfers. I have brought in Cazorla (for Hazard). The money is in the bank for next week. That's when this might come back together.
What other transfer did you do?
Bego (mun) Jussi (SOU)
Olsson (MCI) Baines (qpr) Ivan (tot) Demel (SOU) Hughes (AVL)
Nolan (SOU) Caz (nor) Bale (CHE) Pie (qpr) Routledge (WIG)
Ba (sun) Aguero (wba) Berba (AVL)
Who would you bench? Olsson Demel and Routleddge??
Another thing. I have Sterling on the pitch and Pienaar as first sub. Is this what others would do? Scout picks don't agree.
Not for me. What has Sterling done to be in ahead of Pienaar?
Is having manoone for 1 wk worth it? On wc. Gonna play bego forever after
Ivanovic - you;re not going to see he attacking threat when he's marking Bale.
Can anyone tell me if simpson is nailed on for newcastle?
Yes
Liverpool XI: Jones, Wisdom, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson, Allen, Gerrard, Sahin, Suso, Suarez, Sterling.
I must be missing something, as I didn't think KO was until 3pm.
Demi posted the same around an hour earlier....Nothing unexpected in the line-up though.
Guardian expected Shelvey ahead of Suso.
1 line-up out. Already wrong! 😆
I must be missing something, as I didn't think you were Demi 2 hours ago.
I'll post it again in 30 mins Martin. I challenge you to stop me 🙂
Liv lineup form Demi?
Anyone know why the prices didn't change last night?
FPL out on the lash ...
Martin Axford's H2H opponent must've been WCing.
Bad, bad timing. They've missed a day before but it was midweek when transfers weren't a minimum, and it was annoying then - but to do it on a Friday, and on an International break which favours wildcarding - a lot of people will be badly affected.
how long Jenkinson is still worth keeping ? Sagna back in 2-3 weeks or more?
Only decision left for me is which to start?
a) Cuellar (spreads the risk, but tougher opponents)
b) McCartney (not guaranteed to start?)
Jaask
Baines, Hughes, XXX
Bale, Santi, Michu, Pienaar
RVP, Suarez, Berbatov
