Now things have calmes down.
What are people doing with Azpi and Zaba?
if i had either i would just hold. they've been rested so its unlikely they will again.
That said, i would make sure i had a good 4th def fixture every week so i could cover them if they were rested again... which will probably happen in the gw19-21 fixtures
I am keeping azpi I figure he has had his rest and will play the rest of the games until the NY.
maybe that is wishful thinking!?
I'm thinking of getting one of them in
It's not just Azpi and Zaba though is it ?...It's just about every defender from the squads big enough to rotate.
Mourinho said that almost no one will play every game of the festive season. Does this mean azpi is now safe for a good run? And maybe the same applies to Zab. I'm thinking of doing chambers to zab so Id be interested to know what others think
I'd keep, least you didnt get lolarov in for a hit 🙂
I think both will get another game off (not the next 1 but one of he four they have leading up to New Years)
Years ago a manager told me the ideal was to play three and rest one...Jim Smith...
keep although don't be suprised if they rested again over christmas once more
it's the joy of a premium def
Holding Azpi. Surely with this rest he should play more games now going into Xmas
Tricky knowing which Chelsea defender to bring in now. Tempted by JT.
JT is easily the one to get. cheaper than cahill, more clearances and tackles (so more bap potential), and attacks more set pieces. He's also already had his rest (vs Sporting), whereas Cahill hasn't.. though he should against Derby in midweek
agreed
Cheers, is what I'm leaning towards.
if he has more bap potential (btw more than... azpi? ivanovic? who?) wouldn't he have more than 2 bps this season?
... which were only earned today?more baps potential than cahill, imo.
ivan is too expensive
azpi is a rotation risk, and less goal threat, and is now only 0.1 cheaper than terry i think
Rank in order:
A) Siggy + Naylor + 4
B) Bony + Naughton + 2
C) Bony + Siggy + Naylor
Yes I know Naughton probably isn't going to playi don't understand what the 4 and 2 are?
Current standings..just for tomorrow
not sure i follow
you're comparing an option with 3 players with options with 2, hence the confusion
They're points
A is current #1 who has 2 players left and a 6pt lead (4 was in comparison to me, my bad)
B is me with 2 players left
C is current #3 who has 3 players leftoh snap, i didn't realize it was H2H matchups, i thought it was to do with transfers. Got ya.
C easily, then A
A
IMO, C will win easily. Followed by A.
Yup, think so too. Need Siggy + Naylor to blank and a double digit return from Bony
I think azpil is playing if they face better teams
Like Hull are not really scary at home for Chelsea
how is Dzeko looking? shall i get him out this week or wait?
lame
wait
Which City defender are people getting in ... or are you getting any ?
Hart
none
none, maybe week after
west brom will score v them
Clichy looks the obvious choice for me, with aguero out he's the best value route to the City team at the moment ahead of Palace / West Brom / Burnley.
Hazard (C) this week. Austin (C) next week. Rinse and repeat.
yupp
eat, sleep, rave repeat
no.
will fabregas drop price tonight?
Hey lads
Who would you pick going 'forward': Caroll or Sakho? Looking for a replacement for Ings after decent punt (21 in 4)
caroll
isn't sakho off on his hols?
what do you mean mate?
isnt he ACON?
bony likely to rise tonight?
yes.
Ive had a stormer pity my cup opponent has 72pts with 4 to play ouch.
What to do with Dzeko, Im thinking Andy Carroll, he looked lively today
@ Timtastic - boy did you get lucky today Dzeko ((c);
Hazard (vc)
🙂
Is he around? Who you bringing in for Dzeko Tim?
No clue, been keeping away from Austin - probably the obvious choice in my position.
Deciding between Jovetic, Giroud and Lukaku - don't expect any to play all of the next 4 thoughIt's a tricky one. Nobody stands out at all. Giroud and Carroll are tempting me
Costa\bony\ ??
Sahko/Rooney/Rvp/Giroud for me.AdM or no one for me from United. Sakho is an option too but fixtures turn after the next game..leaves Giroud 😯
I watched game today and I thought Giroud was sharp tbh.
Fixtures ain't the best but he interests me personally Tim,
Let's see how Rooney/Rvp does tomorrow.
That's two weeks in a row now..I still maintain it's the others who got lucky..Dzeko was on for at least 2 😉
For sure 😉
Who's your replacement?Read above, short answer - dunno 🙁
K replied, all of a sudden it's tough...
60 points with Baines, N.Taylor, Siggy, Bony and Sterling to play. Another 20 points would be lovely!
2 2 6 6 5
I'd take that in a heartbeat right now. Hoping for some Sterling points and a Baines goal/CS in particular!
What do you think of Sterling? Keep? Surely they can't get any worse...
7, 2, 2, 9, 1
Looking solidThanks - hoping this makes up for sub-standard GW's over the past few weeks!
Austin still in red it says suspended until 20th Dec will he be ok to play against WBA next GW?
Yes - flag will be removed when QPR play their game on Monday evening
I see cheers !
please read above +++++
he hasn't played yet so flag remains
Yes. His flag will be removed after QPR play Monday night
Why dont I see anyone looking at Pozo
He's way off being the standard of the Premier League
Or at least the standard of leading the City line to much effect
Too young and inexperienced. Not likely to play much
He's surely nailed on for the next month. They've got no one else to lead the line
Nailed on for the bench
They dont have anyone else, a la mcnair for unuted
So who's going to play up front with Aguero, Jovetic and Dzeko injured?
Ssssssshhhhh
lol
looked slightly out of his depth v leicester. Suprising if pelle sticks with him as the striker, alot of games, alot of pressure, alot of games.
Therefore not sure if he is going to be leading the line too much longer. It was suggested perhaps, yaya, lampard or sinclair could lead the lineSinclair? Scott? Still languishing there is he?
still there picking up the money. Doubt he would come in though. So one of the mids would have to lead the line and I would imagine it would be an experienced head like a lampard or a toure
would love to see him play. was great a few years back for swansea.
sinclair don't make me laff
pozo has been playing quality in the reserves but it is avery big step up
not sure what game he's playing with jovetic
has he the guts to recall gudetti after treating him so shoddy?
if pushed i'd have nasri leading line with lamps supporting behindJovetic wont play and nasri is barely a goalsciring mid
LOL
@ B2b - Santa hat off!
Not only do you have Carzola in your team you (c) him!
You mad thing!!!!
🙂
🙂
Rolling the dice big time!Well played!
Lost my no 1 spot in the Ballacks 🙂
Crackin league!!!!
Azpi and not (c) Haz this week cost me 14ish points,
Ah well next week, tough (c) for all next week should sort the men from the boys 😉
Whoscored.com lists jedinak, richard dunne, tomkins, dawson, and curtis davies ahead of Aguero in overall rating in the top 10 players...
Is there a way to get rid of those defensive players from the stats? They clearly only get high points because of having to make lots of tackles and headers because they play for crap teamswho scored is qualitee but doesn't work to the same rules a barclays
it could be argued aguero doesn't work well enough but is superb in the last thirdWhoscored's defender ratings are like a who's who of shite defenders
totally agree. its why skrtel got "defender of the season" award last year, despite conceding over 50 😛
61 with Siggy and Jagielka left. No Azpi or Dzeko :/
77 with Kane Lambert Siggy and Coleman left, Pretty chuffed given bought Dzeko and Kolarov in
So lampard has won city 6 points, wonder what chelsea fans feel about him now 🙂
lampard city 2nd top scorer this season then.
behind aguero
joint 2nd with toure
Is Mangala on 4 YC?
yeah
Yep.
Yes
Yes - received 2 in Capital One Cup seemingly
seemingly? he did.
It doesn't say so on the FPL data page - hence seemingly 🙂
I'd avoid him
Time to ditch Chambers and i want a City or Chelsea defender Can you help me decide folks?
I'm not too sure on this one.
City have better fixtures but Chelsea is Chelseasee above JT
MY TEAM IS IN SUCH A MESS
Guzan
Baines, Azpilicueta, Taylor
Hazard, Fabregas, Sanchez, Siggy
Bony, Kane, Austin
Hamer, Duff, Hutton ,Boyd
ITB: 7.2
I can't figure out which citeh player to get.
Should I get ADM as he might play next week?
How long is Azpilicueta injured for?Think azpi was just rested. Boyd to nasri and play 3-5-2 would be my advice.
A mess? You´re joking right?
Hart (Elliot)
Azpi - Baines - Yun (Chambers - Hutton)
Sanchez - Yaya - Hazard - Siggy (Boyd)
Ings - Austin (C) - Costa
1FT 1.3 ITB
What do you guys think I should do?
a) Chambers/Boyd > O'Shea/Downing (-4 & Bench Ings)
b) Ings > Sakho
c) Chambers > Mangala/Demichelis (Bench Ings)
d) Save
52 with baines, mirallas, bony, naylor, siggy to come 🙂
sooo bentekkers for fixtures
or giroud whos coming into form?
or sakho? who allows me to upgrade elsewhere
thoughts?Out of the 3 I like Giroud. Hammers have tough games coming up
Cant say I fancy Benteke at all tbh. Giroud is looking good but not the best fixtures ahead. Would prefer Carroll to Sakho, great fixture this week as well.
Did the man city game finish ten minutes early?
I don't see a toure late goalhe's saving them both for next week 😉
He said he isn't going to score because nobody has wished him a merry Christmas yet
I see Boyd didn't get any minus points for conceding the penalty today... I thought players got -3 regardless of the outcome of pens.
imo conceding a pen should be separate from the kicking of said pen, and should be -3 regardless of the outcome
thoughts?Thinking Giroud for Dzeko TONIGHT to miss the price rise.
worth it...?Wait. Losing 0.1 won't kill you!
I've only had Costa back for one week and he's already getting on my nerves. How can somebody who scores so many goals in so many games get so few pts...He should be on as many as Aguero
Hate him tbh went Diego over Haz just to top it off dropped 200 places.
🙁His spread of goals should be perfect...
Chelsea played very poor today though. Worst game for them this season. On a "normal" day I reckon he would have at least two goals. But I agree, not looking good for that heavy price tag.
Giroud with Caz Welbeck and Sanchez looked really good tonight...
Welbeck was dreadfull. But Giroud could come good.
Was gutted with azpi being rested until I saw wisdom on the bench......... nice not to leave points on the bench for a change 😉
With all of cities strikers not available - what's the thinking on who will be the best oop option?
