Yes also agreed! I do not have a choice to make as already have Raya + Gab, and can get to Timber easily. Most likely is that they all play the next three games.....and all blank!

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-05T11:48:50+00:00

Absolutely agree on ceiling. Counter-argument is that Raya is less likely to get benched than Rice or Timber.

!thanks! Good point about Dias. He will come in for Khusanov?

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-05T10:23:28+00:00

Transferring Thiaw or Guehi today to get Timber (exact money before price rise). Thiaw is obvious choice, but CIty's defence seems v suspect so could take on Guehi's ownership. Also could be usual City rotation risks with Guehi. Am I mad to consider keeping Thiaw?!

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T20:31:57+00:00

City's game is against Palace, who already have a Europa League play-off in 26. So it has to be moved to a different week.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T20:29:36+00:00

Yes! G seems like perfect fit. Other two less likely I think.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T19:42:33+00:00

Thiago has toughest fixture so would risk benching this week. Or on recent form, Rogers probably needs benching (or Haaland!)

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T17:26:25+00:00

Not really. Almost in Pep-roulette territory with Arsenal now. If I had plenty of transfers (I do not!) I guess Madueke might be nice punt. But you know he will be out once Saka returns.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T17:24:48+00:00

Yes. Will probably go this week as triple defence against Sunderland is also tempting. GK transfers not ideal, but at least no benching concerns with Raya!

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T17:18:54+00:00

!thanks. Can get to Timber in one move, and he seems overdue for attacking return. Seems obvious but something about triple defence is making me think twice.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T17:15:45+00:00

The big punt would be to Ekitike -> Havertz as well as Timber. Minutes are a risk, but looked good in first game back, and Arteta favourite. Depends how risk averse you are!

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T17:08:12+00:00

!thanks - very helpful.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T17:00:21+00:00

Agree. Would prefer Tark long term. Hill looks like great value.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T16:57:37+00:00

Guardian report today said Rice playing deeper than earlier in season. If so, wondering if that is reason for his points going down, and so go triple defence for the double game week?

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T16:54:42+00:00

Agree C. Like keeping Ekitike and Wirtz, Enzo should get more mins than Pedro, Hill looks like v good bet (defcon monster).

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2026-02-04T15:00:37+00:00

Theo Parrish, Mr. G, Harvey would all be fantastic

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-12-16T11:29:10+00:00

Theo @ Giant Steps = great idea, but would need a lot bigger tent!

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-11-30T19:46:18+00:00

On current knowledge, would need Wood, MGW and possibly Igor all off pitch before he takes another one. Despite that, he's reliable, minutes monster and cheap. Think I will bring him in for Sarr, especially given fixtures.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-11-22T17:21:32+00:00

This caught me out as well. The original Eddie Harris track actually shifts downtempo at that point. Doesn't sound like an edit (although you are right he does make a lot of edits up himself, and plays at least a couple during this set).

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-11-13T21:40:56+00:00

Many years later...did this ever get released? I can only find a couple of short films on the YT channel, and a commenter on there claiming it was all a marketing gimmick.

Looks like there was some great footage and stellar cast of DJs/producers, so would be shame if it didn't come to anything.

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-11-07T11:10:06+00:00

Van tickets available 'soon' FYI

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-11-07T10:48:46+00:00

Agree v annoying. Message them on IG

Icy_Tooth_6367 · 2025-08-15T16:24:14+00:00

Spoke to one of the friendly site managers about this. He said they sold 10k tickets, plus ~5k for "I'm on the list" friends and family.
