Members can read on for our analysis below.
Yeah
It's a decent move, but I just don't trust City's defence. No Laporte / Stones and after the Norwich game I think teams will give them a right go in their defensive third.
Yeah they aren't rock solid but if they keep the ball away from the opposition it'll always be tough to get at them. Otamendi has a goal in him too
I'm gonna do it....sterling to kdb, vvd to Ota, Greenwood to Tammy,/wilson
Tammy
Thanks for the replies
Thoughts on this WC?
Pope
Aurier | Rico | Soyuncu
Sterling | Salah | Son | Cantwell
Auba | C.Wilson | Pukki
Button | Lundstram | Hayden | Mings
Fairly happy to go for a light defence and load the front end.
One change Im flicking between is Salah + Mings > Mane + Otamendi
Thinking of switching C.Wilson to Abraham next week.
Great team.
I'd get Dendoncker if he drops and Tammy in this week.
Rp
Hmmm this has been made though for me now.
A or B?
A) Aubameyang, Salah, Otamendi and Lowton
B) Aguero, Mane, Vertongen and Guilbert
A
A
Avoiding temptation to make changes and am carrying free transfer. How does team look for this week’s games?
Pope
TAA Van Dijk Digne
Salah Sterling (c) De Bruyne Ceballos Cantwell
Pukki Haller
McGovern Rico Greenwood Diop
Very good
Looks fine - maybe Haller --> Abraham but looks good.
WTF do I do this week? 1 FT. 0.4 ITB.
Pope
VVD / TAA / Digne / Montoya
Salah / Sterling / KDB / Cantwell
Pukki / Barnes
Button // Jota / Kelly / Dendoncker
1) Play Montoya over Jota? (Y/N)
2) Jota + Sterling >> Aguero + (6.7m?)
3) Something else?
I can't see which striker I'd want in long-term other than Aguero/Abraham, or perhaps Aubameyang. Wildcard seems better suited next GW.
Simply sick of Jota & likely to lose value on him + Dendoncker in respect to Abraham/Aguero movements.
1) Y
2) tempting but nah
3) save
this, but N for nr 1. Jota started on the bench tonight and looked lively when he came on, and CP are really a crap team.
Having been to a few Palace home matches, I can confirm they are pants at home - but sadly so far Wolves have been rubbish too.
Just lost in EL, continuing the poor form. Can see the fixture as a bit of a damp squid.
Wouldn't use your WC this week.
N, N and maybe VVD --> Otamendi with your FT, which seems a popular move to those with double Pool defence.
Great side.
2.5 OR 😛
Not a bad idea RE: Otamendi. He doesn't inspire confidence, mind.
2.5m even. 2.5 OR would be bad!
Play Jota. Wouldn't be expecting much from Montoya. Probably Save FT and look at Abraham next week
AWB and VVD > Aurier and Trent for free?
Pope Button
VVD Digne Zinchenko AWB Lundstram
Salah Sterling KDB McGinn Dendoncker
Wilson Pukki Greenwood
yaaaaas
Team news on here has Solanke ahead of Harry Wilson who I took a hit to bring in last week for Trossard. Do any one here give Wilson the nudge over Solanke or is he really unlikely to start and I should swallow my pride and cut losses with my ft?
does*
give it a few weeks. My guess is he'll start a few, but not all, games. But Solanke didn't exactly light the world on fire the last game so Wilson could very well get the start v Soton. And even if he comes off the bench he has a chance of scoring you points.
sound advice! thanks a ton 🙂
np. Hope it turns out well for you!
Repost - apologies. If Mount injured, what to do?
Pope
VVD | Digne | Zinchenko | Montoya
Salah | Sterling | KDB | Mount
C.Wilson | Pukki
Button | Greenwood | Rico | Drinkwater [1FT + 0.8m ITB]
If Mount misses Liverpool but should return next week I'd just play Rico tbh
Doubt Rico starts. And Mount won't play this week (hopefully back for next), so up to you if you want to risk fielding only 10 players (or less).
One possibility is to bring someone in for under 7 m (Yarmolenko, Mcginn, Iwobi etc) and if Mount is passed fit for next GW you could get him back with your next transfer
haller-> abraham
yay or nay
No harm in waiting a week, but if you're wanting to catch the rise tonight, then go for it
nay
ahead of Liverpool? With a midweek game? What's the rush? superdupernay
Hi....is this worth a wildcard??
Current team
Pope
VVD DIGNE soy guilbert rico
SALAH STERLING kdb JAMES cantwell
HALLER pukki BARNES
Wildcard
Pope
TAA AURIER Soy guilbert Rico
MANE kdb SON Cantwell HAYDEN
KUN Pukki ABRAHAM
Thanks
if bad rank yes
1.5m rank...
pull the trigger
what? absolutely not! Do it AFTER tomorrow's deadline if you insist on it.
That's a great team for this GW, it could very possibly outscore the WC suggestion, and if that's the case it's a huge NO as an answer
I'm not going to rush into this ...reassess in the morning.....
Last bit of WC tinkering!
A) Mane Otamendi (Hayden)
vs
B) Salah Soyuncu (Nakamba)
Not even close imo. A
Thanks for the reply. I'm just worried about Salah's 45% ownership (rank killer), although I know Mane outputs roughly the same. Also taking into account that most players will captain a City asset over the next few gameweeks (exception GW7), so that is reassuring.
A
Hows this one looking?
Pope Button
Digne AMN Lascelles Lunds Rico
Salah Mane KDB Son Mount
Abram Pukki 4.4
0 ITB
Brilliant
Personally, I often love 3-5-2, but in the current landscape I can't go another week with a dead third striker and captaincy fail. So three pieces of firepower up top it is.
I initially tinkered with Auba up top along with the other two. The challenge is that it leaves me in the mid with a Cantwell + Hayden sort of combo and I'm not very comfortable playing one of them every week.
WC? Looks a descent team in general, however I'd have a second look at that defense.
First; I'd be very cautious of Arsenal defenders, for two reasons. 1, their defense is the worst in the northern hemisphere and 2. rotation risk. Tierny and Bellerin are both back in full training and they could be back in a matter of weeks.
Second, I don't see the value in Lascelles. Don't see Newcastle keeping clean sheets and he's not an attacking threat. For that price I'd say Montoya or Dunk offer much better value, or even Lowton with the upcoming fixtures. Even Fredericks or Diop are better options imo.
Just my thoughts, best of luck with whatever you choose!
Also, if you're going double liverpool attack (which I think is a nice differential) I would go Firmino + one of Salah / Mane. Firmino is involved in everything up top and it also gives you money to invest in either a better 8th attacking option (than your 4.4 striker) and/or upgrade your defense
King to Abraham or do something about Mount?
fix mount unless you have a bench player you feel comfortable playing. if so then get tammy
Mount will play next week, hold.
Both
do I start Pieters vs Norwich when I have double Norwich
or
Do I play soyuncu vs spurs
I'd play Soyuncu
cheers, im thinking the same. Might as well bank of a norwich win and no clean sheet for pieters
I hate playing my attackers vs. my defenders. I like to pick a side unless the defender holds a serious goal threat
Which one?
A) Aguero
B) Aubameyang
This week alone, Aguero
Kun
A
This week, A. Longer term, B.
On WC:
A) TAA + Mane + Lowton
B) VvD + Salah + Rico
A
A
Any Sterling owners considering handing the armband to KDB this week?
yes but know ill regret it
yeah, or Pukki maybe?
Not sure if I could do Pukki. Sterling, KDB or Salah for me.
it certainly worked out for me in gw 4. it was pretty scary though
No, I haven't got KDB.
That's unfortunate then.
Happy enough with Kun's double hattrick.
I am - more likely to play 90
A) Start Pieters vs Norwich when I have double Norwich
or
B) Start soyuncu vs spurs
Same boat. Leaning towards Soy. I also have Pope in goal.
A I think
More likely Spurs put more than 1 past Leicester than Norwich do at Burnley
Fun stat: Last 5 games Arsenal has 18-0 vs Aston Villa.
Villa are due a win and clean sheet.
That stat will be 21-1 after Sunday 😉
How many current Villa players played in any of those games?
Probably not many, if any, still a fun stat...
Hopefully to become 18-1 😉
Good to go? No hits. Will probably WC or take a hit next gw.
Heaton
Digne Otamendi Robertson (Rico Montoya)
Salah Sterling (c) KDB Mcginn Ceballos
Barnes Pukki (Greenwood)
Yep gtg. Similar plan, depending how this week goes for the likes of Barnes, KDB, Sterling, Zinchenko for me.
Wesley to Barnes or save and play Montoya? 1Ft 1.0m itb
Hendo
VVD Digne Diop TAA
Salah KDB Sterl Ceballos
Wesley Pukki
(Stek, Greenw, Dendon, Montoya)
I’d roll the FT pal. GL
Cheers mate. Barnes against Norwich v tempting though
True. I damn hope he scores big, not gonna lie! And outscores Tammy, for one.
I think the FT could be valuable for you though.
Yhh, probs wildcard soon tbf and Barnes would be a slight differential in my ML
I'd get Barnes in, Wesley has looked pretty pathetic.
Although I'm taking a punt on Joelinton this week
Cheap so why not and nice fixturs. Could work out
Slightly different angle here since it's pretty much a toss of the coin, which sub 5m defender have you watched and been most impressed by/looked most dangerous this year?
Guilbert.
Will Daniel James keep his place in that United team?
With WHU, ARS & NEW next, i'd like to get him into my WC team.
Yes.
Almost definitely will.
Is he not injured though? Or at least a doubt?
Yeah, he has a knock according to the FPL site. I'll monitor it, but he's a selfish kid and that's what i like to see.
Just go with it and pray? 😆 0FT, 1.4 ITB, WC available - maybe for next week we’ll see...
Pope // Button
TAA Digne Zinchenko // Lundstram Rico
Salah(vc) Sterling(c) KDB Mount** Cantwell
Pukki Barnes // Greenwood
Unless Pep indicates Sterling or Zinch won’t play, then may take a hit...
Need a good GW!
More likely just pray for strength to go with it :-P. Kidding aside.. looks good for this week.
Who to play
a) Cantwell (bur)
b) Maddison (TOT)
A
Both if possible. Is there a way?
Not really, got 3 at the back and happy with everyone else. Close call though
A
Guilbert nailed?
No, but likely to play while still performing.
1 free
Dendonker(start) > Cantwell
Or
Robbo(have TAA) > Otamendi/Lowton
Gtg? Anything worth a -4?
Pope
VVD, Digne, Mina, Otamendi
Salah, Sterling(c), Kdb, Cantwell
Pukkhi, Haller
Button, Lundstram, Mount, Wickham 0ft 0itb
Aguero
That would take a -8
I would do Haller to Wilson
I suggested this yesterday. It is tempting.
What to do here?
Ryan - Heaton
TAA - Digne - Zinc - Taylor(BUR) - Lund
Salah - Sterling - Lanzini - Mount - Dend
Barnes - Pukki - Haller
0ft & 1.3itb. Cheers!
Dend to Cantwell to avoid price drop and get a 4th playing mid
Thinking that... but would be a -4
Nothing as you have 0FT
Thoughts on Kolasinac for a one week punt? Got my mind set on WCing next week.
4 years, 7 months agoVan Dijk - > Otamendi? Also have Robertson
