The men in black have been a prominent talking point leading up to Gameweek 13 after Everton’s Oumar Niasse become the first player to be handed a two-match ban for a ‘Successful Deception of a Match Official’.
As featured in the first iteration of our members’ Men in Black article last week, though, Anthony Taylor – the referee who awarded the Toffees’ spot-kick against Crystal Palace – had previous when it came to awarding penalties.
yes, he will probably fall down the stairs given his history of picking up injuries
Lol imagine the facial expressions
We can see the same info on fplstatistics that you can. No-one knows anything different.
Educated guesses based on past history is what I was hoping for,
Fix and stats match up to say no
No. Probably tomorrow.
Likely to be no then. The problem with past history is that thresholds change, and even new rules are added.
No
Sane or Kane captain?
Kane all week but now getting confident about Sane
Has to be Kane. If he doesn't provide returns, he's gone.
Same wagon
If you're a pessimist, go Kane.
If you're an optimist, go Sane.
interesting take
I think you have to be quite optimistic to captain Kane this week, tbh!
I’d go Kane, WBA are a mess and Sane is, as ever, a pep rotation risk.
Harry
Going Sane. City gonna go bonkers against Huddersfield. And have we forgotten how poorly Spurs have performed against teams who sit back and defend.
Why all the Sane love, what about KDB or is everyone too poor to afford him
West brom Just do the sitting back bit
Sane. Captained Kane for his 4 blanks at home, can't take a 5th.
Start mee or gross
Gross I reckon, mid over def.
The attacker.
Gross
Is Surman worth the 0.2m over RLC for a 5th mid?
Or Cork over both??
No, go RLC
I don't think so.
Thanks both.
No
Bottomed, so reposting: Just done Jones to Dann. G2G?
Eliot
Moreno, Dann, Bavies
Salah, Sterling, Silva(c), RLC, Richarlison
Lukaku, Kane
(Hart, Abraham, Ward, Lascelles)
Yes, but captain 1 of your strikers not silva mate
Best option out of these?
A) Morgan/Simpson
B) Yedlin
C) Kiko
Still Yedlin 🙂
CS this week?
Is Lascelles expected back this week?
Wait for presser! Don’t think so was a few weeks I believe! Huge game for us after 3 defeats in a row and tough games to come! 1-0 hopefully mate
I like B + C. If you have Elliot, then maybe go for C, but be aware that Janmaat is a very decent backup for him.
I have Elliot but I start Pope every week.
Pope Elliot
Azpi Otamendi Ward Dunk Mbemba
Salah Sane Richarlison Choupo King
Kane Jesus Vardy
2FT and 1.5 ITB. I have two options I'm considering:
A) King -> RLC. Need to get a playing bench for christmas and this seems a good week for it.
B) Choupo & Vardy -> Pogba & Wilson. I think it would be a good move but I fancy Vardy to score against West Ham, and I could also wait for Niasse if I do A.
Any opinions?
get morata in next week and upgrade mbemba. think about getting Hazard and Pogba in. think you are right in ditching King
What to do with this lot:
Elliot (Foster)
Mawson, Daniels, Kolasinac (Rosenoir, Hunemeir)
Eriksen, Sterling, Richarlison, Salah (Carroll)
Kane, Lukaku, Murray
Should I save the transfer and have two next week or drop someone? Sterling out? A defender out? Only got .2 in the bank
Carroll to RLC, bench Murray.
That's some high risk stuff
Cant see much point in 1 transfer here. Best 2 at once with 1 being an extra useful defender
agree you need better defenders than your current subs
Mawson good differential not in many teams...
DDG
Azcuilapeta, Otamendi, Daniels
Choppo-Moto, Saleh, Richarlison, Sane,
Kane, Wilson, Morata
Pope, Lowton, RLC, Moreno
GTG?
Any transfer tweaks?
no good team , gtg
great, GTG then
Haven't got this squad yet
DDG
Azpi Otamendi Ward
Salah ***** Richarlison ****
Kane Morata Niasse
Elliot Dunk Yedlin Carroll
A) Sane + Pogba
B) Hazard + Choupo
A
A
Abraham to Wilson for my FT or play RLC and save it?
Azpi/Alonso & Hazard likely to rise in price tomorrow?
Don't mind tomorrow. Just not tonight please.
Looking G2G? 😎
Fabianski
Otamendi • Daniels • Yedlin
Mo Salah • Richarlison • E. Hazard • RLC
Becky Vardy’s Husband • Harry(C) • Rom
(Elliot / Ward / Duffy / TC)
What's best going forward?
A) Daniels, Otamendi, Richarlison, Gross (5th mid)
B) Dunk, Mee, Hazard, RLC (5th mid)
A
A is more balanced
Listening to Let It Be while having the thought of letting Kane go surely is something. Would make tinkering easier without him. Could have Alonso, DDG/Jones, Ota, Hazard, Pogba, one of city mids and Morata(even Kaku).
I hope you'll regret it... Holding Kane all season.
I've done it, I'm now sitting on Hazard, Salah, Sane, Silva, Lukaku and Morata and it feels great.
I've got Salah, Rich/Gross, Sane, Haz, Kane and Morata and I feel pretty good as well. I'm just too scared to not own Kane lol
Sounds nice. Rest of the team?
Nevermind. Could do the same by matching your GKs and bench setup.
A little different to the last question...
A) Quaner to a 5.5 forward
B) Gross to Richarlison
No chance of price fall for Aguero or Sterling right?
It’s definitely going to be Kane’s weekend TC
I don’t think Kane will outscore Tom Carroll
😀
Best replacement for Abraham?
Wilson, or hold and get Niasse when back from suspension
Lukaku?
2fts 0.1 ITB. any ideas on how to approach GW13?
Fabianski (Elliott)
Otamendi, Daniels, Cedric (Tarkowski, Long)
Salah, Eriksen, Sterling, Richarlison (Carroll)
Kane, Lukaku, Abraham
Cheers
If you do Eriksen to Hazard, how much would you have left to replace Cedric?
A cool 3.9. already have 1 non playing defender, wont we getting another. I'll move for hazard next GW
Start 1 (have morata)
Lowton (ARS)
Moreno (CHE)
moreno
That's who I'm on currently
Pool keep CS at home often and Burnley don't vs big sides.
Hate having striker vs defender though
Lowton
Kun --》 Morata
And for -4
A Jones--》 Otemendi
B Sterling --》 Sane
Only B makes sense! Don’t like a hit for a defender! Personally I’d just do the first bit and no hit
Thanks Rafa. Probably wise words. Cheers
Prob doing B myself. Would have to Captain Sane to cover the hit though
I'm toying with that. Me and kane captaincy not working 🙁
Play one:
A)Abraham
B)RLC
Tammy
A- Wilson+ hazard+ Otamendi (without Kane)
B- Wilson+ Pogba+ azpili (without Lukaku)
Which combo?
Cheers!
B
G2G?
Elliot
Bavies Daniels Naughton
Sterling Silva Hazard RLC
Vardy Kane(c) Lukaku
Foster Mee TC Mbemba
I'd probably play Mee ahead of Daniels. Apart gtg.
Madness
Is owning hazard and Morata too much?
Nah
No if you dont have azpi or alonso
Playing Pope over Elliot.
Hoping for save points galore.
Am I good to go here with this squad. I feel it may be too balanced leaving me with selection headaches
Fab, Elliot
Otamendi, Azpi, Jones, Ward, Mariappa
Sane, Salah, Richarlison, Sterling, Gross
Lukaku, Morata, Tammy
Good to go. Not too balanced. But Fab or Elliot in goal next gw?
This week or next? This week Fab and Elliot next week
Well, presumably you won’t choose Mariappa too often, and Jones will probably be rested in a few games, the same with Sterling, so quite often the team will pick itself.
Bench 1
Wimmer cry
Cedric EVE
Naughton BOU
Daniels swa
Wim
The cheapest.
Thoughts on this for a -4 ?
firmino > wilson
jones > alonso
Tnks guys.
Very nice.
6 years, 6 months agoJones likely to fall tonight?
