Paul 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.
What do you think will Sterling play this week? How do you think Guardiola will manage pitch time for Sane and Sterling with matches on Sunday (hud), Wendnesday (SOU) and Sunday (WHU)?
With Mendy out, I think Sane almost has to play. No one else can really play that position. Sterling will get his mins. I think Sun, Wed, Sun is enough rest in between.
Sterling might not start on Sunday but will start midweek and again benched next Sunday. Sane should start at least 2 games.
Sterling will starts most games.
He will start most games and also be rotated herw and there. You just never know with Pep. Same as Kun Jesus conondrum.
Sane will play both given Guardiola's comments.
Sterling will start at least one, though I don't know which one. Given that they're both great fixtures, I'm keeping Sterling and reassessing after that.
I think he starts as it's a away game. Then benched for midweek ,will come back for the weekend. Worth keeping imo as he will start most games.
So you Sane is better option but Sterling worth keeping if i have some other players to transfer?
Yes,Sane clearly the better pick as he's almost nailed. But Sterling is still good value,will start more often than not.
Play fabs or Elliot?
Same headache. I have gone double trouble, starting Fab and Naughton
If you're gonna go, might as well go all in.
Yup might both get 2 pointers or score big.
Same. 50/50. It would be nice to hear why Jonty chose Fabianski #2 in the Scout Squad.
Start one:
A) RLC (Stoke H)
B) Richarlison (New A)
B

What's everyone's thoughts on Eriksen ?
Could be the must have player in the next 5-6 days imo.
yea really hoping he delivers this wknd
Keep for this week. If you can afford Hazard then I'd ship.
yea keeping for this week and then haz next gw
Eriksen is a pain. When he gets points, he'll get max bonus as well. Thing is Spurs aren't blowing teams away so hard to justify 9.0+ for him. Especially if you also have Kane.
I agree. Looking to get Hazard soon
Cracking player who's form mirrors that of spurs as a whole. Slightly tepid with lots of promise of more to come.
Not a keeper nor a transfer in until he starts producing again. That midfield spot is too valuable to carry dead weight.
true tommyg
Had him all season. Going to downgrade to upgrade elsewhere. Pogba and Coutinho are tempting me. Can't decide if I should do it this week or hold on for the West Brom game.
yea im holding just for the WBA game then he is out
Better option?
A) Hazard (-4 to get him next week)
B) Silva/Pogba + 2.2-2.6m
With A I will have to play 442 with not such a strong defence. Will have atleast 3 4.5m defenders. And no Alonso/Azpi.
With B I can Alonso, Ota, and Choupo-Moting & Richarlison as my 4th & 5th mids in 352.
Appreciate your thoughts! 🙂
B with Pog
B
This may be crazy but I've got this horrible feeling that either one (or both) of Kane and Lukaku could be rested this weekend. They both played in europe this week and both have 'easy' home games on Saturday followed by a away game on Tuesday. Is it crazy to think Ibra and Llorente could start up front this weekend?
Don't even! I have to unread this.
Still gonna C Kane.
I don't see it myself. I think it's more likely there mins would be limited with those two coming in later in the match if won.
Kaku should be dropped not rested imo
Both start imo. Poch doesn't rate Llorente,Mou won't trust Ibra to lead the line alone.
not yet but maybe during the more intense gw's later in the christmas schedule
A) Aguero > Morata
B) Abraham > Wilson
C) Both (2 Ft)
Would probably play RLC this week if I don't swap Abraham.
Also interested in going Niasse when he's back instead if I decide to keep Abraham for now.
B
Thoughts on Fabregas to double up with Morata???
Can't afford Hazard
I think there's better options in other teams if you can't afford Hazard
Better other options in that price range.
Thinking of doing this for a -8 next week I need to do something to turn my season around.
Vardy > Wilson
Sterling > Salah
Bavies > Alonso
Thoughts?
Like it
Yep.
Going around in circles myself with Vardy, think I'll just save and do a 2FT-4.
What time is the fpl show to see optas chop moting angles?
A. Sterling + Mee or B. Gross and Azpi?
B
Thanks THFC4Life.
Everything else aside, Pogba or sterling?
Pogba
That's been my thinking, cheers
I have just pulled the trigger and done Sterling to Pogba
Mine will have to wait till next transfer, Eriksen will make way
Lukaku gunna start?...worried Ibra may get his chance??
Thinking of Lukaku and Bellerin to Kane ( will captain him) & Daniels??
Y/or/N
maybe
Elliot
Cedric - Maguire - Daniels
hazard - richarlison - sterling - salah
Kane - Abraham(!) - Firmino
Pope - RLC- Wimmer - Stones(!)
1.9itb 1ft
A) Stones > Alonso (next week after pool) uses up budget so weak forward line
B) abraham > wilson
thanks!
1 ft and 1 m in The bank.
Dont know what to do, Sane or Pogba in for Eriksen, or should i keep him for this gw?
Upgrade mt Def?
de Gea. Elliot
Jones Daniels Mee Zanka Yoshida
Eriksen Gross Salah Richarlison Silva
Kane Morata Niasse
Best Lascelles Replacement? 0.5itb Have Smalling,Mee,Naughton,Simpson as my other defs
Cheers
Daniels/Moreno
ok bit the bullet and Kane is gone.....
playing 3 5 2
Keeps
Elliot
Def
Maguire, Yosi (subing jones), Daniels
Mid
Sane, Silva, Pogba,Salah, Mahrez
For
Wilson, Morata
Sub Ward,Jones and King (protection on Wilson rots), Pope
Next week 1.6 in bank so Jones out Alonso in...Thoughts
I'm just glad you clarified who's playing in which position for us!
true could have saved that bit 🙂
Must be kidding
Hi everyone! This is my team:
Foster, Elliot
Jones, Mee, Fernández, Gomez, Mariappa
Eriksen, Salah, Gross, Choupo-Moting, Carroll
Kane, Jesus, Lukaku
£0.2 itb
1FT (I probably save it)
What would you do in the next GW?
A. Eriksen to Hazard & Lukaku to Morata
B. Choupo-Moting to Richarlison & Lukaku to Morata
C. Other options?
Thanks!!!
Save and do A next week
Thank you!
Play
A) Ward(ARS H)
B) Yedlin(WATH)
B
Yed
I’m starting Pope over Elliot
Köln leading by a penalty out of nothing. This is what the game needed though tbf.
Niasse owners - what are you doing with him? Riding out the ban or shipping?
On a wc and probably going to keep him, he's part of a 3-5-2 so I was only going to bench him anyway.
If you had him already I would think you'd be playing a 3-5-2 and would just continue? let him sit on the bench like he's been doing.
Cheers.
Riding out the van definitely
Good to hear. Was slightly concerned he'd fall down the pecking order but can't say what'll happen with a new manager.
Are you Belgian as your nickname suggests?
Where from?
Murray to Wilson?
Play Mee or Moreno?
Moreno for the potential attacking returns I guess
Which option looks better, I cannot decide at all
A) Wilson and Sterling
B) Niasse and Sane (play RLC for the next 2 then rotate them)
B.
B simply because of Sane
B
In for P.Jones:
A) Mustafi
B) Monreal
C) sb else?
Max. 5.9 to spend
Defence is:
Pope - Elliot
Alonso - Otamendi - P.Jones - Daniela - Mbemba
B - Always fit.
1.) Pogba&Sane
2.) Silva&Sane
3.) Coutinho&Sane
4.) or maybe Coutinho/Pogba&Silva ? 🙂
WC defense
Pope Speroni
Otamendi Moreno Daniels Mee Dunk
Any changes I can make? Not sure about Moreno and Dunk. Still got 0.5 ITB.
Moreno to anyone
Elliot over Speroni and don't love Brighton defence personally but could pay off
I really don't rate those 4.5 defenders this year apart from Burnley ... Maybe go with Speroni - Elliot and upgrade Daniels and Dunk?
Hmmm Eriksen and Jones out for Sane or Pogba and Azpi or Alonso for a hit?
Sane and Alonso. Yes.
Sane and Alonso for me.
A- Wilson+ hazard+ Otamendi (without Kane)
B- Wilson+ Pogba+ azpili (without Lukaku)
Which combo?
Tough but b...just
b
A
Thoughts on this 3-5-2? I'm not too concerned about no City with all the rotation... No Kaku is a bit of a worry, but Haz looks like he should easily match him for next 8 games, if not exceed?
DDG
Jones, Daniels, Moreno
Haz, Salah, Pogba, Richarlison, Groß
Kane, Morata
(Elliott, Niasse, Dann, Mee)
Looks alright, double United defence is overkill though
not really
So much value in those two though - for 11.0 it is ridiculous, they should be 12.5 or 13.0
