Is it worth booting Jak for Pickford?

Antonio and Capoue are my weakest midfielders (Sterling, Hazard and Sanchez my other three). Considering ditching Antonio for Snodgrass and upgrading Capoue - thoughts?

No. But it's worth bringing Pickford in over Jak.
 
I wouldn't turf Capoue or Antonio just yet.

I'd keep both of them. West Ham's home fixture look great for the next month, and Capoue has started the season in some good form. A little worried about the impact Pererya will have on him though.

I already have Jak.

Yeah they have some soft fixtures, but Snodgrass is super tempting.

I know. I was saying it's worth you holding him, and explaining why that is different to the advice I gave Jatz.
 
I'd be careful with Snodgrass. Promoted clubs have a history of starting well and then dropping off.
I'm fairness it's still pretty early haha. Our fixtures lighten up a lot in about a month.

I'm only speaking from experience haha. Remember our first season bakc up? Did well the first 5 games in the 'harder' fixtures and then just fell off a cliff against the lighter teams.

Doesn't mean it will happen to you of course, just that it does happen.

Has Gray been suspended yet?

We did well against Swansea which would be considered easier. I just think worrying about our form dropping off after three games is a bit premature lol.

Perhaps. I guess time will tell :thumbsu:
 
Valdes (Red)
Pickford (Yellow)...listed as 75% likely
Shaw (Yellow)...75%
Shaqiri (Orange) 50%
Aguero (Red) Suspended/Injured?
Friend (Yellow) 75%...

Shall I use my Wildcard?

What are people doing with Aguero?

Depends what the rest of your team is. I would use it going by the amount of players you have in doubt.

I've got Costa in for a couple of games and then will get rid of him for Aguero. Well if he's in better form than Ibra I might even ditch Ibra for him.
 
Still struggling with best option for Aguero.

Already have Ibra and am actually thinking Giroud...Is a chance for 90 minutes?

Don't want to use WC just yet.

LOL. Giroud? Really? Go someone like Benteke, Lukaku, Bony, Costa, all before Giroud.

Costa...Likely yellow card and who knows a red.

Lukaka has no form.

Benteke & Bony...on what grounds?

Gird while I don't like seems to score and Gunners do create chances

Giroud doesn't even start mate. Lukaku has very good fixtures coming up, Costa has 2 in 3, Bony is the missing piece Stoke have needed and had a brilliant scoring record for Swansea, ditto for Benteke with Villa, they're all far and away better options.
 
Not buying a player because they're yellow card prone probably isn't the way to go about it, especially when that player is Costa. Lee Cattermole? Of course, but he's shit.

Triggered my wildcard and the team finally looks balanced.

GK - de Gea, Foster
Def - Shaw, Morgan, Vertonghen, Holgate, McAuley
Mid - Hazard, Sanchez, Sterling, Mane, Lamela
Fwd - Benteke, Bony, Grabban

Yes he does, has been on an extended break because of the Euros and eased back in. Will start against Southampton 100%.
