Plus Stones and Gundogan not even in the squad. Looks like we will never know where we stand with Pep.

Good to hear Aguero starting. Glad I held back this week on transfers. Stones and KDB were tempting options but Pep is keeping us on our toes.
Best of luck lads for this game week.

Anyone bar me getting the Jammy Robinson assist? Might get removed though.

No way - I don't think many will have Robinson playing in their teams this week. Good stuff.
Aguero goal now too.

Urgh. Could cost us.

Yeah likely they have one more Aguero starting so any armbands on him could be telling. Let's hope Robinson can get another couple of assists or a penalty save.

Glad I kept Kun. Did anyone on either team captain him?

Counting Captains Austin have 9 Kuns to our 4, so some ground to make up. They have also stocked up on Siggy, so we need him to have a quiet game. Looking on the bright side, we start 4 pts up and Jonnyleeds does not have a goalie. A haul from Couts is what we need.

Ouch. That's 60 points to make up. I'm sure we can do it though!

How many Coutinho's do we have? :-( Too many, and Siggy has scored too, so we have a lot to make up. Hang in there guys! |

A tough day. I make it 176-238 with the remaining differentials being:
Chicago: Sanchezx4; Capoue; Wilson; Holebas
Austin: Austinx2; Lukaku; Mustafi; Gardos
A hattie from Sanchez would make it interesting.

Oh dear - what a disappointing weekend so far.
That Aguero knock and flag fairly swayed our captaincy decisions and ultimately my CBS team selection.
The only consolation for me in benching Lord is that Swansea scored 5 and Barrow didn't even get an assist. Personally my Sigurdson to Hazard transfer for a hit 2 weeks ago has been a disaster so far. But Swansea conceding 4 goals in a game and still winning - how does that even happen?
Only one clean sheet on Saturday and apart from Aguero there wasn't too many big hitters with decent points hauls.
Well pressure is on Alexis now. It can be done.
We still have a win under our belt and the Liverpool midfield injuries will undoubtedly lead to a player shake up for next week with those of us who banked transfers.
Let's keep calm and see how things play out Sunday before we assess and start the planning for next week.
Cheers Lads

Come on captain Sanchez. I feel a hat-trick coming!

So close - a crossbar away from an Alexis hattie. As it is, we have done brilliantly to eke a small lead going into the Southampton-Everton match, but Austin's goal has killed the dream. Great effort.
