      What a night :')

    GK Lloris
    DEF TAA, Doherty* Bendernark
    MID Salah, Mane(c), JWP, Son*, Sterling,
    FWD Jiminez*, Aguero

    Subs (Foster) Calvert Lewin, Jonny, Dunk.

    Plan on doing a -4
    Doherty to Kompany
    Son to Pogba
    Jiminez to Zaha

    10 points clear of work mini league with the -4

    I'd already mentioned Kompany (check my posts lol) before his wonder goal to counter the rivals Ederson, Pogba again as rival has him, and Zaha as the punt.

    How's it looking?

    Thanks

      Should have waited for pressers and the Son appeal verdict

    Ok attempting to get head back to FPL. This is what my team is likely to look like after my planned move, injuries pending. Thoughts?

    0.6itb
    Lloris
    Robbo*, Laporte, Valery
    Salah (C), Sterling, Mili, JWP, Babel
    Aguero, Wilson
    (Foster) (Jimi, Doherty, Yoshida)

    Anything you’d do different? Assume nothing worth a hit?

    Thanks. 🙂

      Looks good to me and with depth too

        Cheers mate. Appreciate it. Always nervous when I’m satisfied with my team on paper but gotta give it a go!

        Want to try and finish strongly

        Jimmy to Rashford bench Mili?

        1. Don Kloppeone
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 day ago

          That would be a hit which I’d rather avoid unless forced by injuries. My FT planned is:
          Jota > Babel

          Close to 0. He won't be at united next season and they have nothing to play for

                    If Son can get red hot, again.

            Hi.....any views on what to do here? 11pts behind rival. Nothing our teams below.

            I'm thinking of son to pogba/ bSilva and captaining sterling. Will prob do robbo to vvd- 4 if robbo out.

            RIVAL

            Foster
            Shaw laporte TAA (valery duffy)

              How is VVD going to outscore TAA? You might regret that move on its own.

              Wait for Son appeal as well

            What’s the consensus on here about the likelihood of Son winning his appeal against his red card fellas??

              Don't think it will be completely successful but it might get reduced so he can start next season

            Son + Jota --> Redmond + B. Silva
            Looks ok, right? . Or would you put Son on the bench, play JWP and ship out Jota + Jiminez?

            Would leave me with:

            Lloris
            TAA - Robbo - Laporte
            Mane - Hazard - Redmond - B. Silva
            Aguero - Vardy - Jiminez

                  a) Doherty --> Laporte (play 4-4-2)
                  b) Jota --> B. Silva (play 3-5-2)

                  The remaining Wolves player will be on my bench.

                  Two Prem teams in both finals with a guaranteed winner or prefer Prem v Europe?

                    Ajax because they are more exciting than an out of form and quite frankly shite spurs team. Arsenal Chelsea for EL.

                      If you rate Spurs as shite then according to the PL table Chelsea and Arsenal are much the same kind of shite.

                    Certainly want a Spurs v Liverpool final. Spanish club dominance crumbling . The PL should be competing at the top level in Europe . Would be even better if the Europa final was Chelsea v Arsenal who let's face it have been little better than mediocre this season.

                      English fans surely want them all English ties, unless its a hatred of both clubs...

                      European football is all about seeing different styles, stars and atmosphere's for me, a mix in both would be nice.

                    Last Scoutcast of the season and what a backdrop with that unbelievable game taking place.

                    Was a little torn with wanting to watch it I will admit.

                    Still cheers for watching all year for those that do check it out, been a lot of fun! It’s been strange without Mark, and even weirder the last couple without Joe, but hopefully you still enjoyed it!

                      Is it some bad injury ...?

                        Wait for Klopp presser. Played on for a bit after, which may or may not be a good thing.

                        In his post match interview, he said he hope's he'll be fit for the final, which doesn't sound ideal for Sunday.

                        Buzzing for Liverpool. Watched it in a Spanish bar in Majorca and it was intense. Lots of angry locals. Love it. One of the best performances I've ever seen.
