Live Match Chat Wednesday Night Edition Game-week 23
We trust you are all well this fine Wednesday evening and looking forward to another fantasy feast. Tonight we have the Midlands derby as Aston Villa welcome WBA, there’s a London derby at the Bridge as Chelsea meet West Ham, Sunderland host Stoke and Spurs have the unenviable task of trying to tame Aguero and Man City at White Hart Lane.
Keep track of all the action, the goals and the talking points, right here at FF247 Live Match Chat, an interactive chat which encourages you to keep involved and share your thoughts and emotions as the matches take place and beyond.
Good luck for the remainder of GW23 from all at FF247!
Boruc, Mannone
Mertesacker, Baines, Ward, Kolarov, Chester
Hazard, Silva, Eriksen, Januzaj, Gnabry
Suarez, Aguero, Giroud
Any thoughts? I’m not sure on Kolarov, as he doesn’t seem to be starting lately (FU Pellegrini for last night)
Also, Aguero’s injury could be a concern, would look at Rooney/Sturridge?
Mertesacker worth keeping after the Palace game? Their fixtures are actually frightening.
Giroud safe or needs to be replaced?
If Kola didnt start last night, he should start on weekend (thats logical) and City will need a win badly to maintain the lead and keep distance from both Arsenal and Chelsea, so playing Kola against Chelsea wouldnt be that bad of a move, as he will be on a attack spree like he always is.
Aguero>Sturridge seems like a good move, if Aguero is injured for long. If its just a matter of 1 GW, then wasting transfer on him is not a good idea.
After the Palace game, Arsenal has Liverpool United. But getting done with those fixtures they play Sunderland, Stoke and Swansea. So technically, you’ll have to bench Mert twice in coming 6 GWs, which does not seem that bad. Just get a good back up for Kolarov after this GW.
Thanks, B
Yeah, it makes sense that he might start, but I don’t like taking the risk given that I’ve fallen 37000 places. lol
I guess like many of us, we are to wait on the injury news of Aguero to see what comes next.
Also, Mert will be the question. Might keep the transfer if Aguero is deemed fit..
id replace Giroud with Negredo or Dzeko – not this week though…..Dzeko seems more assured of gametime til Negredo is 100%…..
Id replace Kolarov with Azpi….
If I was you id save the transfer this week and make the 2 transfers next week…..
daboyo: good idea to hold it if Aguero is able to play. I like the Kol -> Azpi transfer too.
Morning Bitty. Id chill with the def. I think Kol will start. He is more attacking and chelsea will sit back so I dont think pele will worry too much about def. Aggy may actually play. If you dont fancy him maybe a punt on Rooney. I watch the match closely the other night. Rooney-looks like a NEW signing. With mata rvp and the contract it could be a decent punt. He looked sharp. Mark my words-PUNT. a calculated one though.
Giroud-keep this week. Bin next. Hes not capable of getting a hattrick but plenty of others are plus ars have a bad run in.
Have you guys seen Man City Next 5 Games
Manchester City v Chelsea
Norwich City v Manchester City
Manchester City v Sunderland
Manchester City v Stoke City
Manchester City v Aston villa
I know – what a time to lose Aguero to injury…
I think if he is to miss those games and he is in your squad he needs to be replaced with Dzeko or Negredo…..(Dzeko for me I think)…
id nearly go and bring in Toure for Ramsey with the extra funds…then id have Silva/Toure/Dzeko
DZEKO for me to hope AGUERO Fit though
Didnt watch Chelsea vs WH game, but how awesome was the WH bus last night?
Chelsea: 39 shots
WH: 1 shot
:cuckoo:
haha Jose on about 19th century football…….the same fella who went to old trafford without a striker…..we’ll see now Monday night what type of a bus he brings to the Ethiad 😉
Haha. Same here. Anyone considering a cheapo WH def?
Hey B, why change your picture?
Going through some changes. Now im a serious wise man on this site.
Butters brings out my evil side.
He is an evil little B’stard like! I do miss him tho
Haha me too!
Who has gotten rid of Aguero yet? Rooney? Benteke? Giroud? Who have people picked? I’m leaning towards Rooney.
where will Rooney play TJ…..Mata is a no10 and RVP is out and out striker…..maybe they will play 4-3-3…but its hard to know…..
Rooney will be 3rd in the pecking order id imagine behind RVP and Mata for placed balls also…..
Id be very slow to tie that much cash up with Rooney….
Benteke/Negredo or Dzeko or Sturridge would be my top picks
Not sure I want both Suarez and Sturridge
Rooney is definitely a quality pick. He should return to the first team this GW and will probably play in his old position, which is behind RVP.
Mata did state in interview that he would like playing in the hole (Rooney’s place) but he is also willing to settle for the wing role.
My guess is Mata will shift to the wing. Its hard to predict which one of Valencia/Young he will replace because Young had an amazing game in midweek. Probably Valencia then.
Anyone know who else is missing GW28?
City, United, Sunderland and??
A team that is dead to us.
WB
Why they missing 28?
Chopper
FA Cup final that weekend
Shep, league cup final mate.
If AGUERO Out for More then 1 GW then am Going for One of these Striker which One would you go for ..?
A – DZEKO
B – NEGREDO
C – BENTEKE
D – ADEBAYOR
Not Considering Sturridge got Gerrard & Suraez
Jeet
IF it is say 2 or even 3 GW you will prob lose some money.
For me anything more that 2 GW’s is sell (since his buy back wont make me lose too much)
Out of those City attack is a must…. Im backing Negredo
Cheers Shep
