If I were to play the wildcard
Previous:
Mignolet… Given
Zabaleta/Mertesacker/Coleman/ Turner/ Gabbidon
Sterling/ Walcott/ Yaya/ Hazard/ Mutch
Rooney/Lukaku/Suárez
If WC used:
Szczesny/ mannone
Shaw/Mert/Coleman/ Gabbidon/ Turner
Sterling/Wally/Yaya/Hazard/Lallana
Suarez/ Rooney (soon aguero)/ Rodriguez
Thoughts? Bit disappointed I have to get rid of a city defence, and that I lose lukaku, even though form hasn’t been great. Is there any other options iv missed? Cheers, haz
hazardeden10
anyone please??
redmecca
Ok,
I wouldn’t bother with Rooney up front, I’d go for Podolski, even if it is for one week. Rooney is playing so deep now, he won’t score.
Like your midfield.
Shaw? Soton’s form is not so good at the moment – I’m considering Williamson (Newcastle) and Olsson (Norwich) – better form and are both nailed on. Let me know what you think.
Cheers.
hazardeden10
thanks redmecca, its just s’oton fixtures just look to good to miss. yeah williamson could be an option.
i guess my main problem is midfield (wierdly?!). i want to keep wally, hazard and yaya, but at the same time want lallana(*cause im a massive fan*) cause his form and fixtures. trouble is this is expensive, especially if i want 3 big names like suarez, aguero and lukaku up front. what dya think, give up on lallana or try and sacrifice the 3rd striker and play 3-5-2??
redmecca
Actually forget Olsson – Norwich defender perhaps not the best idea.
But have a look at Williamson, I’m putting him in – tough fixture vs Man City next but then two nice ones.
My preference is to play 3-4-3, I guess I feel I have more scoring power with 3 up front, but I know others (Tekno-Kun and Hannibal) are seriously looking into a 3-5-2 set-up and you seem to have a really solid core midfield to do that.
My personal preference is Silva ahead of Yaya to be honest, he seems to be abit jinxed for me, but possibly he offers better value as he really is a key player within the Man City team – plus he’s 0.5m cheaper.
hazardeden10
yeah, i bought yaya for 9 mil so price doesnt matter! i like to play 3-4-3 aswell for the same reason
TheDreamers
Hazard – Did Shaw come off today? If so why?
I also don’t think Sterling will play when Sturridge comes back.
I think you only can do 2 of the 3 of Suarez/Rooney and Ageuro without weakening your team. Rodriquez is popular and its easy to see why, but not for me
hazardeden10
yeah thats a fair point- only play 45 mins. i know, but sterling has been pretty good, i guess you’re right, he will get the odd 20 mins and will probably be out of favour, but how long till sturridge back!?!?! my confirmed forward is only suarez, but i was saying that i would do rooney—-> aguero when aguero is fit.
TheDreamers
I believe Sturridge is training so cant be too much longer
hazardeden10
ok, what about
migs, given
sagna, kolarov, coleman, ward, whittaker
yaya, hazard, lallana, wally, sterling
welbeck, suarez, rooney (—>aguero when fit)
The B
You should be cautious over Welbeck as RVP is soon going to return, probably next GW and we do not know how that will affect Welbeck’s game time.
hazardeden10
another good point, thanks dreamers, guess ill stick with lukaku
redmecca
Maybe swap yaya for Silva, and maybe Kolorov gets rotated more than say Zab,
But that’s kind of the risk you take with Man City players.
Other than that looks solid – wish it were my team!
hazardeden10
but kolarov is 0.7 mil cheaper

I’m about to play my Jan WC and have season-long WC in hand. Does it automatically use the Jan WC? Don’t want to do anything stupid and use the wrong WC! Cheers.
hazardeden10
no clue- mainly cause iv used my WC in the first few weeks, i should think it will automatically play the jan wc though
Mito21 @FantasyFooty247
Yes, it will automatically use the January WC not the other one.
blue_moon
Thanks Mito

Oooh! Just realised my cup opponent has Eriksen! Just won by 4 points
TheDreamers
Kelvin Davis must be a good choice for keeper short term at least
billisBob (not 1st in 6 to 38 Its a Fact) "That bloody catus..."
Have him myself!
I looked at the fixtures and it was either him or gazzinga and I figured he’d be back for son’tons good ones

Not sure if you saw my post earlier.
My youngest daughter locked out my iPhone, so I’m electronically challenged until Monday 6th – ish.
So I’ll be absent from t’other place until I’m back in blighty.
I’ll sort leagues write up then too.
Cheers
