Get rid of Wilson, Krul, Bartley and Taylor.
Potential risers are Guzan, Wisdom, Hutton and Rose.
May not rise 0.2, but they have the potential.0 -

Thinking of wildcarding...
Forster, Schmeichel, Moore, Hazard, Henderson, El Ahmadi, Rooney, Jovetic out
Krul, Fabianski, Moreno, Sterling, Sigurdsson, King, Naismith, Aguero in
Before the international break? New Team looks good though.
My team below, I brought in Mignolet for Green already... would love to get rid of Dzeko but we need to take a hit. Thoughts?

Already made the Mata to Sterling switch, debating a -4 this week to get Wilson in for Debuchy. Struggling to field three strong defenders. Can't play Hutton (Liverpool away) or Debuchy (City home) and don't think Van Aanholt will keep a CS against Spurs, although he always has attacking potential. I'm glad I kept faith in Pieters despite benching him last week! Stoke look strong defensively and I can see them keeping a fair few cleansheets. Happy to double up on them at home to Leicester, although they looked decent yesterday.
I need to downgrade Debuchy to Wilson or Colloccini at some stage to free up the funds to do Rooney to Aguero. Although the United man has much easier fixtures for the next two weeks (QPR home, LEICESTER away vs ARSENAL away, CHELSEA home) its clear Aguero has hit the ground running this year, and is one of the few players you can say is fixture proof. The logical option would be to wait until GW7 to bring in Aguero (with no points hits) but if he scores against Arsenal OR Rooney continues his sh*t form then I'll be priced out, and will have to take a hit without having the benefit of Wilson this week. Will play it by ear but most likely option will be taking a hit this week to have the team below, leaving £1.7m in the bank for Rooney->Aguero in GW6 or GW7.
So go ahead, RMT! 9/11 players at home, must be one of the strongest going into next week... There are no 'big' players I fear. Sturridge didn't look great, Hazard possibly injured, Mata is Mata... I would say Ivanovic is my main worry!

@ roryc.
It's early days since the GW is in 2 weeks time. But your team looks strong.
Just what's your plan with your front 8? Rotate Larsson and Naismith depending on the fixture? Because I find them expensive for a bench fodder role. This could free you up about £1.0m too. That said noone seems to stand out yet as the ideal £4.5m 5th midfielder.
About your defense. I'm not a huge fan of doubling up but I can see what's your logic behind it. Debuchy could be good going forward though. I haven't really seen how he fits in the Arsenal team but back then in Lille and with France he was and is getting forward quite a lot.
A lot can happen though in this 2 weeks time so there's no rush to find your 3rd defender, especially since Wilson doesn't look like rising (though price changes are not yet understood this year).
Another def you might consider is Clyne. 3 games. 1 goal, 1 CS, 1 assist. A "FF def hat trick" over 3 games
. Also Southampton have good fixtures coming (in fact up to GW12 included with New, QPR, Sun, Sto and Lei home & Swa, Spurs, Hul & AV away - after that they have a horrible run of 9 games with MU & Ars twice & City, Eve & Che H -). 0 -

Yep, plan is to rotate between the two. Still really annoyed with myself that I chose Larsson over Dyer but it seemed like the right decision based on previous history, fixtures etc. Was spectacularly proven wrong and it's left me in 75k instead of 10kAbout your defense.

I haven't really seen how he fits in the Arsenal team but back then in Lille and with France he was and is getting forward quite a lot.
This is why I picked him but he simply hasn't performed. Arsenal look weak at the back and I can't rely on him for attacking potential alone. They face City next too, seems like the right time to dump him. I've gotten 2 clean sheets from a possible 12 in the first 3 gameweeks. My defence has been atrocious and I'm happy to cut back from here. Terry, Pieters and Wilson should be good for next week with another two strong budget defenders in Van Aanholt and Hutton to rotate between moving forward.A lot can happen though in this 2 weeks time so there's no rush to find your 3rd defender, especially since Wilson doesn't look like rising (though price changes are not yet understood this year).

I only have £4-£4.5m to work with and Wilson or Collocini look the best punts so far. Clybe is a great pick but too expensive! Won't be making this defensive transfer until the end of the international break, if at all. Cheers for the feedback!0 -

Wildcard activated. This is my new team so far:
Shawcross, Sterling & Naismith out
Hutton, Aarons* & Falcao in
0.1 million in the bank.
Aarons really impressed in his first game but until he is sure of a start I may go with Ward-Prowse until then.
I think Sterling may get another price rise so will wait till later before making the change.
Weekly team would be:
Krul
Ivanovic Dier 1-other
Ramsey Fabergas Sigurdsson 1-other
Costa Falcao Augero
Madness?
Any feedback is appreciated.0 -

Not sure if you want a cheapish Midfield option - but Boyd at 4.4 might free up a little bit for you - cheapish option available, and doubt burley are paying 3m for him to sit on the bench, so shouldn't lose any value, in fact, being so cheap - he may rise in the value with large transfers in.0 -

How about Pieters instead of Shawcross? You'd save £0.5m.

3 United sounds a lot with their current form. But they should improve...
No Chelsea defensive cover? Mourinho teams generally are very solid at the back. That said they look very attacking this year... Maybe they won't be as strong as last year at the back.

FROM
De Gea £5.5 Myhill £4.0
Clyne £5.0 Coloccini £4.5 Wilson £4.5 Jagielka £5.5 Hutton £4.0
Ramsey £9.0 Fábregas £9.1 Mata £8.9 Henderson £6.0 Wanyama £4.5
Rooney £10.5 Diego Costa £10.5 Bony £8.5
BANK £0.0
TO
De Gea £5.5 Krul £4.5
Clyne £5.0 Coloccini £4.5 Wilson £4.5 Ivanovic £7.2 Hutton £4.0
Sigurdsson £6.5 Fábregas £9.1 Mata £8.9 Henderson £6.0 Huddlestone £5.5
Falcao £11.0 Diego Costa £10.5 Diouf £6.4
BANK £0.9
What's your plan with your front 8? Rotate Huddlestone and DiouF? If I were you I'd avoid selection headaches and go for a £4.5m midfielder (Boyd at £4.4m actually stands out as the best current bench fodder candidate). With £0.9m in the bank I'd upgrade Diouf to Welbeck, he could be lethal at Arsenal.
Finally I'm not sure but I think your keepers don't rotate greatly. I guess you could save £0.5m-£1m from your keepers by getting a better Krul-rotating keeper in place of De Gea. You could also save £0.5m by getting a second £4m def.
If I add everything up. £0.9m in the bank + £1m from Huddlestone to a £4.5m 5th MF + 2 x £0.5m from keeper & defense - £0.5m for Welbeck = £2.4m. Isn't that enough for a Henderson to Sterling upgrade? Think you'll still be £0.3m short. Getting a £4.5m second keeper would allow that move (Sunderland's Mannone who rotate perfectly with Krul may be one solution).OR
De Gea £5.5 Krul £4.5
Clyne £5.0 Coloccini £4.5 Wilson £4.5 Azpilicueta £6.0 Hutton £4.0
Ramsey £9.0 Fábregas £9.1 Sterling £8.7 Sigurdsson £6.5 King £4.5
Diouf £6.4 Diego Costa £10.5 Falcao £11.0
BANK £0.3
I like this one much more. I'd still try get Welbeck for Diouf. You'd need to find £0.2m. Downgrading De Gea would solve that.De Gea£5.5 Krul£4.5
Clyne£5.0 Coloccini£4.5 Wilson£4.5 Ivanovic£7.2 Hutton£4.0
Ramsey£9.0 Fábregas£9.1 Sterling£8.7 Sigurdsson£6.5 King£4.5

I can play
3-4-3
3-5-2
4-4-2
4-3-3
So its looking quite good , Comments please
How much in the bank for that one?
I'd stay clear off Balotelli. Too unpredictable.
What's the story with this Diouf favourite of yours? Is it only me or...) Neve rreally heard about him...
Again downgrading De Gea would allow upgrading Balotelli and/or Diouf.Here my wild card opinions please
Krul. Elliot.
Wilson. Coloccini. Wisdom Moore Hutton
Ramsey fabragas. Sigurdsson. Lamela king.
Costa ageuro falcao
Exciting strikeforce at the expense of the defense. That's gonna be the "problem" of this dream forward line. The good thing though is that you can easily revert to a different tactic over 2 GWs by selling 1 of them if needs be.
If I were to go for it, I'd have a thorough analysis of the next 4 fixtures in absolute priority (basically up to the next international break) and the next 4 after that in secondary priority (to the November international break) so that you have a balanced rotating strong enough defense over this period. You might have done so already but if you haven't that's what I'd do.Currently under WC (0.2 in bank) and recent thoughts are:
Krul + (4.0 GK)
Ivanovic | Kompany + (wisdom | Duff | Moore)
Siggy | Fabregas | Sterling | Lamela + (4.5 - King/Marney)
D.Costa | Aguero | Welbeck
Any opinions are appreciated!!!
Ah. A different setting. That's interesting.
Does this squad means £0.0m in the bank? If it doesn't I'd try get a rotating £4.5m second GK.
Isn't Demichelis a guaranteed starter at City? It could allow you save £0.5m.
I'm not sure about Lamela but if he finds form and keep his position behind the strike rhe may become very interesting FF wise.
Finally no United attacking cover? Are you waiting to see if they can hit form? Or you just don't trust them?aligator_am wrote: »Am sorely tempted to wildcard, this is the squad I was thinking of lashing together, will leave me with 0 in the bank.
Not sure Blind is a good FF pick. Sounds to me as a lost £1m you could spend somewhere else.
I don't know if Naismith will keep his starting position at Everton and more importantly his form. If he does he's a steal. If he doesn't Welbeck might be. Getting a £5.0m def instead of Shawcross (staying at Stoke, Pieters for example) and £1.0m for Blind would allow you that move.
Finally, I don't really like having a non-playing second keeper. And Krul isn't absoulte safety either. But last year with all my good ideas I made a mess of my keepers combos and just hardly scored more from my playing keeper than from my benched one so take that with a good pinch of salt. 0 -

Good analysis.
Re keepers I will he going with Krul and Elliot. If Krul gets injured then he will be replaced by Elliot so no transfer required.
Also means no rotation. Saves money and no worries about leaving points on the bench.0 -

Some solid advice, cheers....Think I'll go with courtois as my chelsea defensive but he'll be my only playing keeper. Might try and make up .2m before the end of the wildcard to get another in.0 -
