Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
From Wenger's words I think Aubameyang will replace Lacazette on about 70 minutes this weekend. If we hear nothing else then Auba is a no-go for me, and I don't like Lacazette. I think Bellerin, Ramsey and even Ozil are contenders now.

Although overall we may get a relatively lacklustre, half committed Arsenal.

Difficult to imagine what a lacklustre, half committed Arsenal looks like.

Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
That's my gut feeling too. I'm probably going to have to take a hit for Auba to Jesus... Must say, this is one thing I didn't see coming at all.

True, so regardless it looks like Lacazette is the safest choice

Arsenal have just become a real headache. Leaning towards not having any of their players at all now, too risky.

Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
Why? Wenger basically told us the likes of Ozil, Bellerin, Monreal will start. And that makes sense too, as otherwise they'd be 14 days without a game going in to Atletico. Shame Ramsey has had a knock, or he'd be 'the one'.
As for a lakclustre Arsenal taking it easy, even then their players are still better to have than anyone else bar City and Liverpool this GW, in my opinion.

Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
I just personally don't think any of those are particularly great options. Once the rest of my team is filled I might end up with one of them by default, but it'll primarily just be to fill a space as opposed to an active pick.Valeron wrote: ↑19 Apr 2018, 19:58Why?

Ben Mee "probably" won't make Sunday after missing the last three matches with a shin problem. However, Dyche was a little more optimistic over Tarkowski who did improve overnight after picking up a knock vs Chelsea. A calf injury will keep Scott Arfield sidelined #twitterclarets (Dinnery)

Thought Mee was supposed to be out for the season... Looks like I'll be leaving him in now on the off chance he starts with Naughton on the bench...

No more than what's been said really. Sounds like he'll probably be fit enough to play.Joccki_10 wrote: ↑20 Apr 2018, 21:04TheBigLewandowski wrote:Ben Mee "probably" won't make Sunday after missing the last three matches with a shin problem.

Javi Garcia plays down the injury which forced Roberto Pereyra off this afternoon: “I don’t know how he is but I’m confident he will be available in the next games." #watfordfc (Dinnery)

Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
Lukaku recovering in Belgium at the moment... Likely to be fit for the FA Cup final but tomorrow is expected to come too soon. United press conference coming up.
Confirmation from Jose Mourinho that Romelu Lukaku is indeed out of the game with Brighton. "Has a chance of being fit" for the @EmiratesFACup
Eric Bailly is fit and available. Recovered from a bout of illness, but absent from the matchday squad recently as Jones, Smalling, Lindelof and Rojo are all going to the World Cup.
“Bailly is fine, no injury,” Mourinho said. “He is one of our five central defenders and honestly, my work is not about World Cups and preparing players or giving chances to players to do the World Cup, but he's the only defender whose country's not in the World Cup."

Cryptic comment. Perhaps he means he will give the WC players more game time (although, because he's Jose, if he does so it's only because he wants to, not because he has to).

If anyone gets anything concrete about Sanchez, please do post it. There are rumours about him not being in the United squad @ Brighton.

Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
I was talking about Dinnery’s source.
It matters because it’s “potentially” not the confirmed squad. It’s merely confirmation of who they saw getting on a plane.
(I think).
Where/what is his source (not apparent from what you’ve shared). I can’t even see this tweet amongst his tweets to check for myself.

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk ... ssion=trueDavid de Gea, Joel Pereira, Matteo Darmian, Eric Bailly, Chris Smalling, Victor Lindelof, Marcos Rojo, Ashley Young, Luke Shaw, Paul Pogba, Scott McTominay, Marouane Fellaini, Ander Herrera, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford
They're pretty reliable with confirmed squads.
No Lukaku or Sanchez.

Re: FPL Press Conferences 2017/18
An important quote from that article
https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk ... d-14611711A number of United players - and Mourinho - were not spotted boarding the plane by photographers but it is assumed the Portuguese and the remaining playing staff will link up with the rest of the squad.
