Our usual post-Gameweek members’ article is up next as we check in on some of the standout performers across the previous weekend’s ten matches.
There’s cause for optimism in north London after Spurs and Arsenal hit a combined nine goals, while our new expected goals data offers plenty to ponder at Manchester City.
Elsewhere, Man United and Chelsea’s Belgian big-hitters have struggled to convince as Watford’s Samba star continues to catch the eye.
surely Pep will want Aguero for Napoli and won't play him 4 games in a row - so Aguero out for the weekend 🙂
that is very true and makes me very worried about aguero
Yep Kun will surely be burnt out after the amount of football he has played in the past month.
It's also about match fitness though
He could sub him around 60 min
That would be my guess, but who knows? God I hate Pep.
What if Aguero only played partial games today and against West Brom?
60/75 mins over the next 2 games
I think Pep follows Football Scout and pisses himself laughing at how much pain he can cause us all ??
Kun needs to get match fit, so good for him to play in 4 days again
Sane Silva and KDB looking good for the weekend.
yep, sterling benched again
Bernardo Silva chucking his hat in the ring two games running just adds to th long term problem as well.
Presumably means at least that he sits out at the weekend.
TBH I'm still worried about Sane. The front 3 is always going to be stressful.
so, what exactly did we learn about weekend's probable starters?
atleast otamendi & silva will start for sure
Jesus, big question marks still. Thanks Pep
This
Proves conclusively that nobody can second guess Pep.
Looks like Salah will be coming for Sterling for me this week rather than Eriksen.
Thanks Pep.
You can read absolutely nothing into this.
I think you can certainly read into it that Sterling is a bigger rotation risk for the weekend than Eriksen.
That should of been clear since week 1 tbh.
Yup agreed - but this week my plan is to ditch one of them for Salah so this is pushing me towards Sterling out.
whens the scoutcast this week? tonight or tomorrow?
9:30 tonight mate
thanks!
Lineup highlights:
- Pep trolls us again. Sterling, Jesus and Aguero starts. Sane and KDB benched. Silva and Otamendi rested.
- Jones fit enough for the bench
- Abraham benched
- Zaha rested, RLC starts
- Stanislas rested, Daniels starts
Okazaki rested too..
thanks
time to ship sterling?
I feel so
Only if he comes off early
Wait, do you mean, only if he does not * come off early?
I'm an owner and thinking it probably is worth ditching him for a Liverpool mid this week.
Nah, he’s rested now. Even if he plays 80 today, he’s OK for the weekend.
Sterling>Coutinho done
Me too
bernanrdo starting again means sterling should be good for the weekend although with pep u never know
hopefully kun doesn't get his record tonight
Agreed about Sterling
Aguero starting? Hope he breaks the record tonight and never starts again this season (lol)
Silva gonna get benched for the week for gundogan
Pep really is a Wa**er
This
Walker? On the bench.
Aguero on to break the City all time scoring record. Hopefully he does it early
I will piss myself if Sterling starts at the weekend with so many appearing to sell.
2 points
So will I. 😀
he definitely will. many seem to be ignoring bernando is playing too
He will start
Dont worry
Bernardo Silva also starts today. I would say it's unlikely that Bernardo starts 3 games in a row and Sterling 1 in 3.
That's probably right. The problem is with Napoli and Arsenal in the next week it's becoming a huge minefield.
so
lukaku to kun? 😛
or sterling to salah?
both 🙂
I got inside Peps head 🙂
Got the team right for this evening
And I think I see a pattern in his lineups if everyone is fit 🙂 🙂
Nice
Spot on mate.. 😉
Tell me the weekend lineup
I can see KDB Silva Sterling Sane and Jesus starting
But take that with some reserve
Its a game against physical WBA
Yea don't be a Kun, tell us!
Pls predict all line-ups from now on. I promise I won't hold it against you if you're wrong 😉
So Jesus + Davies to Kun + Dunk?
Any thoughts? On a WC...
Pope Elliot
Azpi Otamendi Moreno Ward Mariappa
Silva Saleh Gross Richarlison Zaha
Kane Aguero Abraham
Thinking to keep balance and have a playing bench so I can rotate and not worry so much about rotation.
Or is it better to go for another big hitter?
wba a massive worry now
napoli away and arsenal to come followed by internationals with aguero/jesus travelling far and away. Then comes the crazy winter period where games come as thick and fast
I am seriously now considering going without kun/jesus
"I am sure" that Pep will start Kun and Jesus for Arsenal.I am not sure but i guess for the games against Wba and Napoli both Jesus and Kun will get the same minutes.Something like 60 and 30 for each one of them.
May as well just keep Jesus for wkend then.
Yep, that is great
**** you, Pep
Best 4.8 defender out of this lot to get?
a) Kiko Femenia
b) Lascellas
c) Moreno
d) Ward
e) Duffy
b
d) Ward - assuming this is the burnley one.
Although the Palace Ward (or Dann) might be worth a punt with next 3 of 4 at home.
Evening all. Short of time so please can someone provide a one sentence summary of city assets based on pep's team selection tonight?
Is it basically still no idea??
clusterf××k
😀
sterling to zaha gw12 can't come soon enough now
i own sterling and jesus i dont know what to do with them
stare at them with seething anger. that's how Im coping
😀 you're on fire potatoboy
same. and since i own lukaku, i'm even more flummoxed.
Just wanting to gauge the opinion of people here, what’s your argument for having a 3rd striker that’s £5.5m or above? Base £5.5m defenders look to be offering better value (Otamendi, Monreal for example). Base £8.5 strikers are way behind some base £8.5 and even £8.0 midfielders in terms of value, and the premium strikers have mostly poor value for money too. Even if their value isn’t too bad (Aguero), it limits team building elsewhere. What’s your take on it?
Five in midfield. Plus Kane.
I feel like the death of Davies as a viable option will lead me to a 3-5-2. I currently justify having 2 big hitters upfront by saying I’ll in theory have at least 1 good captain choice each week, although I’ve got it wrong most weeks aha
I inadvertently went 3-5-2 when Aguero injured his ribs and I've stuck with it for now. Probably more balance when mids are firing.
I went 4-4-2 when I realised after the initial Firmino hype, that he wasn’t actually that great an option. Who are your strikers?
Remember whoever City sub first doesn't play at the weekend.#sterling
Pep does not like to nail milfs
Creampie. I mean, certainly
Guys just pick 2 attacking players from City and dont overthink it
They will all play 67-80% of games in PL
Pick them and leave them there until there is some injury
I want my 8-12 million players to play 95% of the games, not 70.
SO MUCH THIS
That's KDB,Sane and Otamendi in my WC team now 🙂
Silva?
I'm not inspired by Silva recently
Fair enough..
Silva is never going to set the world alight these days. and possibly as a result he is overpriced. however he seems to be the only one with guaranteed PL game time as as such may well be worth it
At leat you can rest in the knowledge that 2 of them are likely to start this weekend.
