I not even seen the scoutcast but surely everyone was thinking this anyway? Why would anyone go Ryan . They are awful defencivly, can even see Hudds scoring. He won't get many save points though ?

Agree

It's still close, but MCI's attack is a lot better than HUD's, so there will probably lots of shots towards MUN's goal, but they could still go in with DeGea unable to react.

It's close.

DDG certainly will get save points.

Eh? How did he get those figures? Both Ryan and DDG have got 11 just once this season.

I think it's a pretty poor point.

City do not shoot a lot. They play for high quality chances and put most of them into the net. City have yet to see a top 6 keeper make lots of saves against them, and there's no reason to believe that will change this GW.

Ryan has only made 4 fewer saves this season than DDG, and has only taken 1 less bonus point. It all comes down to the chance they have of getting a CS, and that is way higher for Ryan than De Gea.

11's high but let's say 1-9 vs 2-6. Adjusting for implied cs probabilities Ryan still wins.
Ownership is another factor though.

Everything is possible but wasn't this match partly the reason to get Ryan? Or was it only bb34?

(Lloris/Dubravka owner here with bb37 strategy)

Bizarre argument. Has to be Ryan and only Ryan. Citeh will put a hatful past UTD and very few points for DDG.

Brighton at home to a team that never scores esp away from home.

The mother of all no brainers.

Ryan has 2 penalty saves this season. DDG none.

Bizaare argument. Betting against man city getting no goals in 2 games especially in a derby at home is laughable

1-11? That's a huge stretch, 11 points would mean an arsenal game type performance & it's impossible to repeat it because city are much more effective in front of goal compared to arsenal

Yeah I hadn't really thought of it that way until Az said so. And I already have a Brighton defender so don't really want to double up.

Wow! Does he expect City to show up with the reserves? What am i missing?

Utd will play defensively, but City will be going all out to win. It means something to them to.

Also, utd have poor defensive form.

classic overthinking - just go with Ryan

Only caveat is a Ryan 6 pointer (CS) is more likely than a DDG 11 pointer (CS, saves + bonus)... but that's the risk you could potentially take and really, you're only like to lose out on 3-4 points in the worst case.

Uniteds defence is far superior to Brightons, DDG is a much better keeper than Ryan... it's something worth considering at least.

Or just play one player from each defence. I'm playing dunk and ddg so can't lose either way

DDG's FPL scores versus top sides this season

Liv - 9, 2
Tot - 9, 2
Che - 4, 4
Ars - 8
Man City - 2

Another option is Lloris, which is the route I have taken.

If you're lucky you have Dunk! I'm going to play DDG and play Dunk. If I didn't own Dunk though, Ryan would start for me! I think this is the best way to play this

This kind of reasoning is futile though, anyone can get anything... We need to make decisions in this game based on what we predict will happen, just pick the keeper who YOU think will get more points this week!!
