    Argh Aguero and Kolorov to Costa and Gabriel were my moves as part of -4. Gabriel injured so get Jevans off the bench so not that bad but is he going to get games? Any advice with this team? No keepers if Boruc is still injured. Hazard dropped?

    Zouma, Gabriel, Janmaat, Evans, Morgan

            You reckon Boruc will be fit? And Gabriel will get games also?Yeah if Boruc had not got injured I was intending on selling Gomis to Kane this GW for the upturn in fixtures. Now I'm considering Eriksen in for Hazard instead...

    Stekelenburg**
    Williams Gabriel Evans
    Sanchez(C) Payet Mahrez KDB
    Lukaku Vardy Pelle

    McCarthy Westwood Kompany Darmian

    Clearly I might be forced to transfer in a GK depending on Stekelenburg fitness

    McCarthy >> Hennessey

    If Stekelenburg out for a while

    Stekelenburg >> Llois

    If Stekelenburg fit use FT on Westwood upgrade and Bench Lukaku

    Westwood >> Mata/Eriksen/Walcott ect

      Don't start the year with more than one risky player.

          It just made it all the sweeter - and increased the smugness levels. 🙂

            It was essential that it was that much later to have the effect. So few people captained him and BOOM!

    Last minute transfers are never a good idea.

        Yeah, looks horrendous in hindsight!

        Still did ok this week, but that one move was a 15 point swing (and probably another transfer this week)

    Don't have Vardy but also have Kolarov.

    With a FT would you do

    (a) Martial>Vardy or
    (b) Kolarov>Toby?
    (c) Both -4.

    Huth (CRY) would play if I kept Kolarov.

    Hey lads,
    I want to highlight Emre Can as potential cheap 5th mid and major differential. His driving runs when we were chasing the game got me very excited - the areas he got in to were promising and was involved all around the park a lot.

    Secondly, his work rate is probably only second to Hendos and this will put him in good stead with Jurgen.

    Not saying to jump on right away but at 5.3 there is potential there.

    Watch this space.
