    Krul
    Toby / Ivan / Kosch
    Sanchez / Silva / Albrighton / Couts
    Giroud / Aguero (c) / Kane

    Panti / Boyd / Yun / Bruce - 1.8 ITB

    Options:

    A - Toby to Cahill
    B - Giroud to Benteke
    C - Other

    Any thoughts?!

    Leaning towards getting a better 3rd defender.

    Was a historical moment for Ireland with the referendum being passed today!

    A 90% turnout of YES votes from my area alone, must be one of the highest around the country!

    Long story short, I promised myself if it was passed I'd go all out for GW38 with my (c) choice

    Here's my team, whatever player from my starting 11 is picked most will be my (c) πŸ˜€

    Spreadsheet not even half filled in, benching pitons decided purely on coin toss and those that hadn't been benched much. Must be a 3rd/4th place play off πŸ™‚

      The figures dont add up. Its 30 vs 31

      1. Billy Gilmore
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        You're right. Bangladesh missing a defender...mustn't be in my full player list.

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          It's Dawson

    4. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      A QPR goal would be very handy for the Aussies....preferably Austin.

    5. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Post-lineup differential talking points

      Aussies are missing Costa starting but have Coutinho likely playing up top.

      Bungled Mess are missing Hutton & Giroud & Murray starting but have Walcott likely playing up top.

      Bungled Mess start off ahead 4 points and with the Aguero advantage O.O

      Popcorn made. Foster's in hand.
