Any hits involved?

Nasri could be a great differential. And really Bellerin is a must have.

Would just lose CLichy

Literally everyone here has done that

Lots (including me) in the same boat. Next week will be very interesting.

WC'd in 32. Got a great gw rank then, however, that gave the opportunity to TC this week, so last weeks goodness has been tarnished this week. Still though, 2 greens in a row so happy(ish)

I kept Mahrez and Kane. Sold Alli and Dier for Bolasie and Jagielka.
It's just the nature of the game. Some changes work and some don't.

Yes, and I'll add that I have to replace two injured Everton guys. Just made some bad decisions based on high team value and no hedging of Everton with Palace.

Everyone man

"hoping the DGW and bench boost is going to make it a little more bearable"

well, yeah! that's the point. we picked GW34 teams in 33 so we could play the BB chip. all of these WC teams are sub-optimal for this week. I lucked out with 74 points but people should have expected sub 50 or worse.

Not for me

All those defenders just seem a bit too dodgy for a -8 hit.

Big risk. SHould get one game at least though

Rested in an FA cup game when it's all they have to play for? Seems strange :S

Same boat, same idea.

Thinking it's between him, Milner and Nasri now. All constitute a risk; if Pool lose tomorrow I'll serious consider Milner.

Back of my mind is gw35... Will Mata get me 4+a massive haul which means it was worth me getting him in and then removing for a hit...

Nah, not worth the hit as Lanzini doesn't play 35. Tempted to make this move 36 though.

Maybe. Lanzini is less of a game time risk than Lennon, should have scored this week and has a DGW37 too.

I think if you're gonna take a hit, unless it's a United player, the person coming in has to play 35 because it all seems a waste of time otherwise.

If you're playing BB and Lennon looks to be out then sure. Doesn't play 35 though so that could be a problem.

Yes. I need to do this. Not sure it will be lanzini or milner or Alli. I have to replace jagielka too. If playing bench boost, a hit is worth it as we would get two games instead of possibly one or even none, due to injury status of our toffees.

If the player we acquire, say lanzini, needs to be replaced for gw35, then it does potentially defeat the strategy. If you've got 10 or 11 gw35 and can merely bench lanzini in gw35, then definitely get him.

Risky mr Fuchs... not the worst -8 I have ever heard though

Yep I done the same and Zaha

If Liverpool win they are less likely to play but should be nailed now they have been rested.

We need them to lose..

Could well be glorious

No

It's the sort of thing I'd do if I were chasing in my league, and overall rank meant little. Does that apply to you?

It could definitely pay off.

Considered it myself.
TC means 36 if 2 clean sheets.
Any bonus, goals and assists could be 40 to 50+
But if he concedes then it could be a waste.

if chasing your mini league then do it. if leading, pick sanchez to block the chasing pack

Just do the first move

This is what I'm thinking of doing.

best colour going. Good shout.

Haha!

I remember a few years ago a punter on here had a blue-only team all year and finished in the top 1k.

Gabriel

Both will get at least one each. Fosu more likely to get both imo

Yeh I don't see Gabriel playing both now tbh. Fosu-Mensah

Moreno ... more attacking returns of recent.

I own Clyne, however, and will gladly stick!

moreno - price

You think? Pellegrini is a bit of a troll

Yeah. It's week 35 I'd be worried about. Either way he'll miss 1 of the 3 games I think.

I highly doubt it. Kolarov's been good since returning and Pellegrini will have no problem playing him instead of Clichy.

I disagree. Football is about having a balanced team. They scored two remember.

Remember Middlesborough(sp)? Going down yet still having Ravenelli etc in their team and scoring loads. Gotta have that good balance.

Why's that, they deserve the win IMHO ... if Neymar, Suarez and Messi can't find a goal amoungst them then they don't deserve to go through. They are literally 3 of the top 10 forwards in the world, all in one team with an epic midfield serving them up.

Haha, good laugh.

And United, Everton, Palace and Watford being the last 4 of the FA cup. What the hell happened?

They still have the same # of league goals as Arsenal this season and just scored 3 over two legs vs Barca. 2/10 must troll harder.

Thinking of doing it for either Martial or Rashford.

So so this

I have a sneaky feeling he won't start one of the two, Everton and Lukaku have been playing a lot of games recently

Everton just seem to have gone right off the boil recently, i dont think lukaku will do much at all.

Still only 22 and can score against anyone, out-muscle anyone. Haven't watched any of the recent games, don't know what's going on, but keeping for gw34. There was a game a couple of years ago against Arsenal where they played him out on the wing and he tore us apart--think he got two, and was glad it wasn't five. Not burning a FT on a DGW to look for greener pastures.

yea probably. depending on gw35. do you have enough players?

If I was on a WC I'd avoid tbh, Nasri better pick for much less money

I wouldn't get him in if you don't already have him. Might be ok for both 34, but 35 you need all your players with fixtures to play and that is the bigger risk.

Just worried he won't play newcasyle

first time this season in top 100k

currently 77k

hopefully my luck continues

No. His flag was removed so his target went from -80% to 0.0%

lol what, got his link?

Wow, he strikes me as the type to hate to take a 4, let alone 12 hit

link?

Tough.

Think Martial but just.

Fosu

Moreno
