TFF chit chat 23rd, 24th, 25th and 26th October

[Jamjack]

So no Digne (3 games), Richarlison (another 2 games), Coleman injured. Anyone tempted to swap out DCL?!

I wasn’t but perhaps I should be. I think Everton have been found out a bit since Richarlison hobbled off.

[Buster]

So, Kilman starts again, with Marcal on the bench. Worth the risk? Or go Saiss?

Ait-Nouri on the bench too. He's the well-rated France U21 player they recently got on loan, and who many expect to settle into the LWB slot before long. So much uncertainty on that side of the Wolves defence at the moment. Semedo looks nailed at RWB but pity he's priced-up at £3.7m

[cnkp21]

Are Neto or Podence an option or am I better with Saiss with clean sheet potential.

Also Barnes and Castagne are also options.

[Thomarse]

I've gone Saiss for now. Kilman would be too hard to swap out again if he did start suffering lack of minutes. If he keeps his place a few more games and wolves do well, I might take Basham out for him

[happyhoppy]

My saints block now in the top 1k 3 clean sheets pretty much settled defence.....

Shame I benched all of mine in my FPL team.

[Spinynorman]

That's a very welcome goal from Jimenez.

[Spinynorman]

Poo.

[Darbyand]

Poo.

Very poo. The wall was awful.

[murf]

Poo.

Very poo. The wall was awful.

I could tell where it was going. Why couldn't the keeper? Should have saved it anyway. Made Darlow's effort on the Wolves goal look less bad.

[Darbyand]

That should either hit a defender in the legs or go wide. Dreadful.

[Eddie Elbows]

A little bit of TFF karma as Saiss who was varred out of tremendous goal against Leeds is subbed on 68' and is the only Wolves defender to bag a 7. My decision to bring Digne in for Basham didn't go quite as well! That's another 2 trannys down the drain.

Does Saiss still get the 7 points then? It’s on 2 at the min.

'No' is the simple answer.

Thought so.

Ah! That's another thing I got wrong.

[murf]

You need your team to keep the CS. Bit harsh maybe but 7 pts would be generous for a 61min CS.

[Spinynorman]

Vardy is such a little tinker.

[murf]

Only one of the 'Big 6' in the top 8 of the table.

Weird season all round.....


(Some have a game in hand but that is no excuse as they are still outside the top 8 on a PPG basis)

[Tom QC]

Great result for Leicester. Arsenal look to be lacking creativity in a big way, even if their defending has improved a bit.

[Darbyand]

Auba gone 5 league games without scoring for the first time with Arsenal.

[Spinynorman]

High: 38

Low: 23

Best team: 23

[murf]

High: 30
(2nd highest only 19)

Low: 11

Best team: 30

Arteta's gone too defensive. Last game was the same.

[murf]

Teamsheets at 4:30 on a Monday???

I want my old normal back!

Brighton v West Brom (17:30 BST)
One change for Brighton as Joel Veltman comes in. The defender replaces the suspended Lewis Dunk.


Also just the one change for West Brom as Semi Ajai comes in for Ahmed Hegazi, who has left the Baggies to join Saudi Arabian side Al Ittihad.

[cnkp21]

Lamptey doesn’t get an assist for that does he?

[murf]

Lamptey doesn’t get an assist for that does he?

I doubt it from what I read.

[cnkp21]

It was his shot that hit Livermore. You can tell I’m scraping the barrel for points.

[Tom QC]

Ivanovic smashed the clearance of Lamptey's shot/cross into Livermore's face!

[Darbyand]

Burnley XI: Pope, Lowton, Long, Tarkowski, Taylor, Gudmunsson, Brownhill, Westwood, McNeil, Barnes, Wood

Spurs XI: Lloris, Doherty, Alderweireld, Dier, Davies, Sissoko, Hojbjerg, Ndombele, Moura, Son, Kane
