This evening’s Members article takes a look over the action in Sunday’s Community Shield showdown between Arsenal and City. Having assessed Alexis Sanchez’ display our lunchtime Technical Area post, we delve into the data to discover for any hints of form ahead of the weekend Gameweek 1 deadline.
Bego & Shawx nailed as can be.......... Pieters less so but pretty much, and big doubts over who'll start from Cameron & Bardsley at RB
Open Controls
Cameron - but will prob. not play GW1.
Open Controls
ShawX is nailed, we all know.
What about HUTH??? is he nailed?Open ControlsNot at the moment. He's recovering from an injury and unlikely to start GW1 (should be Wilson)
But long term I can't see Wilson keeping him out of the sideOpen Controls
Mignolet. Eliot
Koscielny. Jagielka. Coloccini. Evans. Chester
Sterling Ramsey. Eriksen. Prowse nasri
Costa Rooney. Austin
Give us a hand ladies and gents please..Open Controls
Morning all!
What's the scoop with Evans?Open Controls
Rate My Team please:
Begovic, Krul
Azpilicueta, Debuchy, Evans, Naughton, Bruce
Mata, Ramsey, Eriksen, Siggurdsson, mutch
Rooney, Costa, Bojan
Have 1.0 mil in the bank; anything i can do to improve this?
Was thinking of upgrading Bruce to a 4.5 maybe PVA then just leaving the 0.5 for after if i need itOpen ControlsEriksen to Sterling/Fab
Open Controlsalready got costa and liverpool have horrible start
Open Controls
use your 0.5 for Azpi > Cahil
Open Controlsthink Azpi will get game time so not sure about this
Open Controls
don't like bojan - upgrade to jelly, Austin, ings
Use the other 0.5 to get Cahill/terry just because no one knows who will play lb/rb for chelsea
Evans is an injury doubtOpen Controls@shotgunnufc
1) leaving bojan because he is better than all the others you just named
2) Azpi is just as likely to start as those two
3) i will change Evans to Jones
Thanks for the advice anywayOpen Controls
Are both S.Davis and J-W-Prowse nailed?
Open Controls
Not jwp
Open Controls
A decent chance but Jose might still see him as an impact player
Open Controls
A little help :)?
Costa + Eriksen/Lamela
Or
Dzeko + Hazard
Which is better (if the first, Eriksen or Lamela?)Open ControlsI have no other city players in my team
Open Controls
Will tottenhams defence improve this year? thinking of putting in Vertonghen for rotation, they have a decent run of home fixtures
Open Controls
Which one will you pick?
A) Snodgrass + Chester
B) Arnautovic + DuffOpen ControlsDon't fancy Snoddy or Arnie to be honest.
Siggy or Hendo both appeal more than those to meOpen ControlsAlready have Siggy
Open Controls
Point noted 🙂 thanks
Open Controls
a
Open Controls
Scraping the bottom of the barrel to fit in Roo/Costa/Stu 😉 ?
and if you put a gun to my head, BOpen ControlsNot really! You can make a decent team, see below on Oz Lotto's post
Open Controls
A )Dummet to Wisdom
B)Downgrade Bojan to Zamora and upgrade to 2 def(4.5)
C)Downgrade Bojan to Zamora and upgrade Myhill to KrulOpen Controls
finally settled on my starting 11 for this saturday :D!
looking good.. impatient for this season
(pretty confident i'm winning LMS)Open Controls
I bet you change your team atleast 10 times before kick off 😉
Open Controls
Is it too much risk going with this backline for 3 GWs after which i plan to use my WC?
Terry, Jones, Chambers, Naughton, Marriapa/Chester.Open Controlsyou may end up with only terry jones and Chester by gw2
Open ControlsIf you are definitely going to WC then it should be fine. But I'm at a loss as to why you would commit to using your WC so early.
If everything has gone tits up, then fair enough, play it.
But what if you are doing great and your team is doing well? Still play it anyway?
Well you'll have to with that DF anywayOpen ControlsHm nope ive gone with similar backline, chambers and naughton will start the first 2 GWs
Open ControlsGet DDG as man u cover instead of Jones..and if bank permits upgrade Jones to Mert
Open Controls
I'm having Martin Kelly if he signs for Palace. I've always thought he was a very decent young player and looks to be a bargain if reports of a £1.5m fee are true. But let me ask you this question. Who the flipping heck shall I get to rotate with him??
Open Controls
Colicinni I reckon. Between them they have a good fixture every week until 20, apart from 1 and 15.
Open ControlsIm just going to get whoever starts in goals for them. Makes life easier
Open Controls
Similar here AT, I've had Ward/Rio and Mariappa/Caulker on rotation in and out of my side. But like you hesitant on QPR and thus Crystal now... decided to go Clyne and play him every week post GW1
Open ControlsI'd hold your horses on him. We have absolutely no idea if he'll be a starter.
I agree, he's a decent player and SHOULD play in Mariappas place. But don't forget that he's inexperienced and Mapps was part of a very good defensive unit last season. Pulis might not want to break that up.
Also Kelly is very versatile, so Pulis might want him as back-up to cover all across the back 4Open Controls
Rio Ferdinand. CPL/QPR the rotation you're after!
Open ControlsI fear this might be the way. Don't fancy QPR defence at all though 🙁
Open Controls
Kelly and Rio will work well together
Open Controls
Foster Mannone
Luis PietersTaylor Colo Wisdom
Ramsey Mata Hendo Young Marney
Studge Rooney COsta...
too heavy up top?
it's killed my mids and defo but I can't decide on front 3!
cheers lads.Open ControlsI've taken a similar route, this is a better version of the team you posted above
Krul
Terry/Jones/ Chester
Henderson/ Sigurdsson / Ramsey /Mata
Studge / Roo/ Costa
Elliot/Moore/Hutton/Marney
I might opt for Snodgrass or Arnautovic over Hendo thoughOpen Controls
Hi please can someone help. I am stuck between 2 different teams.
Silva Ramsey Siggurdson Young
Rooney Costa Sturridge
Silva Ramsey Siggurdson Sterling Mata
Rooney Costa Sturridge
Please help. I am stuck between 2 different teams.Open Controlswho assisted the united goals yesterday/
Open ControlsIm still confused why mourinho would buy athletico madrids best player last season in defense, play him at left back every game and azpi on the right and then just decide to play azpi on the left in the prem. Im going luis, fair play to mourinho if he puts azpi left back but I dont see it.
Open Controls
It's pointless conjecture at the moment. All of Chelsea's top 5 defenders are 80% nailed on at the moment - with no exceptions. The balance will only be tipped in favour of 4 of them when we hear Jose's team sheet.
Open ControlsMy feeling too, and last night actually gave me confidence (though others might interpret it differently)
We are all guessing at the end of the day. I can't afford Terry or Cahill so I'm rolling the dice with LuisOpen Controls
Thoughts on Hutton?
Open ControlsLocked and loaded ready for GW1
Open Controls
hey guys I got two options don't knw which way to go...any suggestions will be appreciated
A.
mannone, myhill
fellipe luis, zabaleta, lovren, chambers, bruce
fabrigas, nasri, erikson , cattermole, el ahmadi
costa, rooney, lukaku
B.
**same def**
fab, silva, erikson, sterling, cattermole
costa,rooney,naismith
cheersOpen Controlsb
but not naismithOpen Controls
Should I feel worried with "only" Costa and Terry from Chelsea considering their opening fixtures?
Open ControlsRepost sorry guys need some help deciding
A. Jones, Ferdinand, Chester, PvA, Naylor
B. Jones, Clyne, Chester, PvA, Wisdom
B. Ward, Clyne, Ferdinand, Chester, PvA
Cheers!Open ControlsC* 😆

Are you thinking what I'm thinking, B1?
Open ControlsB by far
Open ControlsB1 i mean
Open Controls
My defence consists of Evans, Cameron, and Chambers.
Just done Evans to Luis.Open ControlsSo who is starting with young?
Open Controls
Me. 😮
Open Controls
Any big news from yesterday?
I heard long is leaving us for 12m :OOpen Controls
😯
moreno to pool
manolas to arsenalOpen ControlsCould improve Snoddy's and Jelly's prospects
Open ControlsHe was a great player, always loved long.
Open Controls
decrease snoddy's rather? one less finisher to assist
Open ControlsNot really, might end up playing higher up behind Jelly
Open Controls
Cheers for all the responses lads! 🙂
Open Controls
Thoughts on Diouf?
Open Controls
If you should choose one gameweek to use your wildcard, in order to gain as much team value as possible, surely GW1 would generate the most cash, no?
Open ControlsNaughton, Kaboul for first 2 3
Open Controls
I think I'm well balanced and ready to rumble.... any takers?
DDG - Gilks
Luis, Clyne, Ferdinand, Vaan, hutton
Silva, Ramsey, Stirling, Mata, Marney
Rooney, Costa, Bojan
Ive stayed on this team for 3 days now, feel Im ready... anything Im missing would be great to know.Open Controls
