Spending money on your bench is a tricky proposition: you need to balance the cost of leaving cash on the sidelines every week versus the risk of having insufficient talent to take up the slack when your first team players are injured or suspended. You might be able to squeeze in the odd 6.0 player to ride the bench but you simply can’t afford to have 20.0+ of talent on there, generating zero points each week; trade-offs have to be made.
The scout picks look like a game of Pro Ev back in the day...MIDFIELDER PASSES TO....DEFENDER!

Yeah LOL.
Open Controls
LOL @ you when Koladog gets another 20 pointer this weekend.
Open Controls
Thats one 20 pointer in amongst four 1 pointers and three 0's
Open Controls
Mate if he does an another 20 pointer, i shall be saluting you. Else LOL at you forever
Open Controls😆 I'm not bringing him in, other fish to fry. But I'd like him in my team this week for sure.
Open Controls
What started all that? All of a sudden when the City line up for the CL game was announced people started not only talking about getting him in but captaining him. An then it was in the title of the podcast. Baffled
Open Controls
Who would you captain out of this lot, please?
Mata, Hazard, Cazorla, Bale
Giroud, Tevez, Mirallas
Currently on Tevez.Open Controls
Tevez
it only non owners saying he no good
they terrified he going get biggieOpen Controls
Is that what you are doing Trigger?
Open Controls
Would probably go Bale, but I don't have him, so i'm going Tevez
Open Controls
QPR vs Reading next week. Bit of a waste really.
Open ControlsGorkss (c)

Any update on Bale?
He hadn't trained all week. Really?Open Controls
i'd pick sterling from those but close. i've benched michu, but having watched city's defence during the week, i'm having 2nd thoughts
Open Controls
Ready to go?
Jussi (McCarthy)
Wilson Cuellar Hughes (Rafael Demel)
Bale (c) Mata Puncheon Cazorla (Pienaar)
RVP Ba BerbatovOpen Controls
Captain Ben Arfa or Defoe

Think I'll keep Giroud and go with Jelly > Kun this weekend and give the armband to him!
Dream forward trio that!
🙂Open Controls
Will Aguero start this weekend?! Want to make him captain! He scored against swans last season.....
Thoughts???Open Controls
Scout picks are empty 🙁

Begovic

Michu K. Nolan Cazorla D. Duff
Defoe Berbatov R. Lambert
ThanksOpen Controls
Who to captain this week? Currently I got Baines, Fellaini, Nolan, Aguero, Bale, Cazorla, Giroud and Ba
I can't decide! At the moment I'm leaning towards Giroud. I know it's crazy, but so am I. LolOpen ControlsTo all Bale owners and especially those (c)onsidering giving him the armband...
How many of you are daddies or mommies? He probably hasn't slept much in the last week. He will be knackered. He won't deliver.
/casting_doubt
🙂Open ControlsThat is a very valid point
Open Controls
I've had barely any sleep this week after being on stag do last weekend and coming back to baby teething and going through another growth spurt.
Was dreading 7 a side the other night. Had a belter though.
I have faith in Bale (I have gone for the "punt" of Aguero as captain though).Open ControlsYou make a good point there - playing in a 7-a-side league isn't much different than playing at St Mary's this season 🙂
Open Controls
😀
Open Controls
in fairness i doubt hes losing much sleep with the night feeds..i doubt his breast is of much use
Open ControlsSo you are clearly not a dad, call me again if / when you are 🙂
Open Controls
He will get his kip don't worry mrs family will be over all week looking after the the little thing ,did they have a boy or a child(I love that saying) 🙂 ,millionaire footballer oh yeah I can pay someone to help mind the child doh .
There is a known saying about the nappy factor when sportsmen become fathers it does something to your brain and you deliver and YES G.B will help deliver for the 2nd time this week ,well held the hand first but ya'll know what I mean .
Rant over , let's go drinkinOpen Controls
Really struggling with 2 ft's and what to do this week.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thinking hazard to bale
Or suarez to ba
Or rafa to sagna
Or bring in Wilson
Or rvp to aguero/ Rooney
Or michu to bale
But they all seem like making transfers for transfers sake if you know what I mean!
What is the priority???Open Controlsless coffee mo. i'd go suarez to ba for what it's worth
Open ControlsForgot about mata!
Open Controls
Suarez to Ba, surely. The rest of your players I'd keep - RvP, Michu, Rafa
Open ControlsPretty similar teams there. Worried about no man city coverage.
Open Controls
I think doubling newcastle may be to much. So who should I take in for Barfa? I'm on wc.
Bego - Jussi
Baines - Kolarov - Caulker - Wilson - Nelsen
Bale - Mata - Santi - Sterling - BEN ARFA
Ba - Tevez - CrouchOpen ControlsBoy, do we have a full house in here tonight.
Open ControlsProbably A. Or B. Or D...
Open Controls
Evening Gents,
Just planning ahead for some transfers and want to gauge the opinion on:
GW10 - Mata and Taarabt for Michu and Nolan
GW11 - Rooney and Pog for Berbatov and Defoe
Both would have to be -4 hits and I couldnt do these transfers any other way with the pricing of my team.
Front 8 would be:
Mata, Taarabt, Bale, Cazorla, Sterling
Pog, Rooney, Aguero
Worth it?Open Controls
anyone doubling up at the back for STO?
already got Begovic.... need a DEF to replace Rangel & im thinking of getting
Huth/Wilson
Simpson
Boyce
Whatdya reckon?Open ControlsYeah i've gone for Bego and Wilson against a toothless Sunderland.
Open Controls
Same conundrum. Im leaning towards wilson, but simpson is calling out to me as well. Ill probably go with wilson, not enough cash for huth
Open Controls
They need to add a new selection factor to the watchlist
Pdt - Parenthood dutiesOpen Controls
Who would you captain out of this lot, please?
HBA, nolan, Cazorla,
Aguero,RV,crouch
Currently on HbaOpen Controls
For GW9
Which 1 to play
Saylor (WBA) Rafael (che) Fonte (TOT)
and is this a good captain choice
Ba (c) Bale (vc) or is Cazorla a viable alternativeOpen Controls
is jenkinson playing this week?
Open Controls
11 years, 5 months agoHey guys, what do you think about my team ?
Howard
Baines Jenkinson Wilson
B Arfa Cazorla Michu Hazard
Suarez Tevez Ba(C)
Sub : Jussi Sterling Hangeland McCartney
0.1 Remaining in the bank
Planning to take a -4 hit next week and take out Suarez, Michu for Bale and Berba/Crouch.
What do you guys think...although I dont wanna let go of Michu but considering the upcoming fixtures...Bale/Crouch should comfortably outdo Suarez/Michu(IMO).
