I'm thinking Payet to Siggy

A&B if Firmino fails to perform well today

else B&C

Antonio playing at RB

Many going for siggy....I'm thinking of either siggy or ayew

The one with 5 goals in his past 8.

On PKs/ set pieces too 😉

Butland

home goalie .. Pool are not firing all cylinders

Ha ha, always the way. I'm sure I've had more benched clean sheets than in my starting 11 this season.

3 hits all years and that rank no wonder you are happy. Must be making good transfer choices.

2 spread the risk/reward.

I'd go 2 mate.

Saw first half and start of second. Brilliant game. Leiscter hit the crossbar twice.

Mahrez assist for King was pure class.

They should never have conceded the first goal. It was all Rondon out muscling Huth.

They play with a lot of grit and determination. They'll need to buy players that compliment their style plus have skill.
Shane Long or Ayoze Perez will be good upgrade to Okazaki. Bolasie too as an upgrade from Albrighton.
If they try to buy too many skillful players they might have to compromise on their style which will hurt them.

I wouldn't be in a rush to lose Payet to be honest, genius player. Maybe just upgrade Westwood and bench Payet?

Azpi to Williams and Westwood to Siggy? Possible?

C

A & B look great.

definitely B. I am actually considering Kompany captain over Aguero based on Villa set piece defending and Kompany goals at the start of the season. Crazy ?

Payet Arnie > Silva Siggy?

Costa to Aguero and get Silva too.

Take out Costa. 0 points for 2 gws.
I'd look to kane for a big haul in the nl derby.

I know City have a couple of good fixtures coming up, but has Silva shown any form recently? A lot of people seem to be putting him in. That would be a great front 3 though!

Kompany.

Otamendi

Kompany, gets the odd goal.

One of the mids

5-6

4.5 players played last night

6 including capt

A,C

B & C

AC most likely.

No way Kun is rested. City are in a title chase!

Makes sense. Silva unlikely to be worth a hit over Siggy.

I'm with you BigB!!

Snap. See above.

Very simple.

1. People see Man City (lots of goals) vs Aston Villa (horrible team)
2. People go "Huh I already have Aguero, who else can I get"
3. People see Yaya (lazy), Sterling (minutes + no points), KDB (injured), Fernando (deep lying)
4. People see Silva and remember his quality
5. People buy Silve

Fair point. I guess the thinking is:

1) AVL next could be a mauling, plus decent fixtures to follow.
2) Silva scored recently and is back to being fully fit
3) MCY are starting to look a little better - good win in CL and League Cup, and they probably need to win nearly all of their remaining games to win the title
4) With no KDB, Silva should be on most set pieces.

I agree that he's not bang in form though.

I'll bring in Silva & Siggy too...better to have 3 man city outfield

I'd wait a week on Sanchez as he may still have a good fixture in GW30. Who are your other mids and how much cash?

In a week

why not arnie/sanchez + payet > silva + yaya ?

D is what I am doing

I'm in a similar position and doing b. Except I have Dawson.

I'm swinging towards D personally, because of their potential higher upside (although a Kompany goal would blow that theory out the water), and I have a similar question, which I'm about to re-post.

But I'm nervous about waiting another week to get Kompany in.

spurs have a goal diff of + 28 whereas lei +20

what abour silva and yaya?

I wouldn't sell VVD until after GW30

0.4 cheaper swings it I think.

Almost definite are liverpool and everton since they need to reschedule 2 games.

Probable are all the other GW30 blanks and maybe City+Newc

The latter could all technically be rescheduled to 37 i think. But I assume they would take the first open slot - No basis for this assumption though except they don't want to risk a fixture pileup

Manchester United and West Ham also have two games they need to reschedule.

not for -8

why -8.. you can do 2 of them first.
