Incidentally, I saw Ozil was awarded 10 key passes in yesterday's game. Haven't seen that before.

Similar dilemmas to many of you. Only played two up front last night so can bring Lukaku in for Ayew and I will roll the dice by captaining him.
Sanchez (4) out for Oscar - if he starts - seems a no brainer but will keep Payet's five points in and leave Winjaldum on the bench. He's 2/11 for scoring higher than five points on the road this season. Also, like many I imagine, Igahlo will stay on the bench so let's hope he blanks.

Hoping Nyom starts as would rather replace Evans' single point with him that Coloccini.

Maybe a little greedy but I can't help myself - think I'm rolling the dice on Aguero (c) -> Lukaku (c). Barkley will come in for Sanchez's 4, but like you Dino, think I'll just stick on Payet's 5 rather than gamble on Wijnaldum.

Managed to mess my timings up and got home too late to make any changes - no Barkley or Lukaku - 96 points it is :)

I switched to Lukaku (c) along with -3 for each of Zouma and Oscar for a 20 point total hit.

Fingers crossed

Well this isn't going well. Need a couple of Oscar goals to recover tonight.

+5 for me thanks to Barkley but losing 12 points on Aguero -> Lukaku still hurts. Would've been back in top 10 if I stuck.

I swapped Payet's captaincy for Azpilicueta :-)

Didn't stick after all so managed to put Azpi in for Yayas 3 and gained 5 to 106 for the week. Hit the top 10 for the first time this season :) will all go pear shaped after this.

I was making the exact same changes until I got home late - got lucky

-8 on the night. Disaster. Dropped from 193 to 292 overall.

Looking ahead to GW25 I've assume many have got a few similar MD1 coin-flips.

I've got Lukaku/Austin/Igahlo competing for 1 striker spot (injuries may ease this of course)

I've got to leave out one of Cedric/Colo/Williams

Need to bench one of Ayew/Payet/Mahrez or two if Coutinho is fit to start.

Kane and Aguero pick themselves this week but I have Lukaku, Ighalo and Doumbia fighting for the other striker slot with Martial waiting for MD2. Was hoping for Doumbia to get some minutes last night as I think he has the better fixture but will see how I feel on Saturday morning.

I'm benching Mahrez and playing Ayew and would play Ayew over Payet this week. Sure, Palace have to win at some point and Swansea may be hurting after the last minute goal but they have the form over the other two.

Currently playing:

Aguero - Kane - Vardy
Ayew - Alli - Wijnaldum - Barkley

Leaving out:

Mahrez
Ighalo
Lukaku
Payet

Anything clearly wrong?

Really difficult decisions this week. Lukaku would get the nod over Vardy if he was 100% playing.

Yes. Playing Alli over Mahrez is clearly wrong.

I have Schmeichel, Huth and Mahrez benched. :roll: :evil:

Ouch, no point worrying about Huth and Schmeichel as clearly would have been wrong to play them. Mahrez is always a tricky one though. Hope most others have done the same as us.

Benching a semi-fit Lukaku adds to the list of great decisions this week.

45 so far this week with almost the same amount on the reserve bench.

My Arsenal pair are coming on but after that it's a question of Chelsea v Man U and whether I load up on attackers or defenders.

Also benched Mahrez and Lukaku (for Austin!).

35 (captained Kane) + whatever Cedric, Payet and Austin get.

Oscar, Sanchez and Bellerin my main bench boosters.

58 so far, with six obvious subs to make. Missed out on eight from Defoe and nine from Shelvey.

After being burned in midweek moving the armband from Aguero's 7 to Lukaku, think I'm just going to stick today. Am less confident in either of my Arsenal attackers today than I was in Lukaku on Wednesday.

Gambling on the captaincy in MD2 doesn't seem to pay off that often it seems. Kane's 1 point is not much of a gamble though. I was tempted by Oscar but went with the safer Ozil option.

I did think about Ozil (despite owning Sanchez) due to his seemingly 'high floor' (i.e. tends to rack up key pass points even if he doesn't score/assist), but decided against it in the end. Stuck with Aguero. Should be a good day for you then.

Zouma crocked on 58 mins and Oscar hauled off on 54 minutes didn't work out but Mesut's haul helped me back up to 4th. Lost ground in the front pair though.

Martial captain good. Other starting 10 players bad. Shame the bench only holds 7 players.

Only 2 of my 11 did well (Fonte and Payet). Captain fail so Aguero tomorrow.

Also having to leave strong players out of squad tomorrow (I left out Vardy and Alderweireld, but wasn't easy).
