I have Falcao, should I transfer in Welbeck, Welbeck looks like he could score 2/3 in games, he's missing the chances but he is getting them, How many chances has Falcao had - he the cross bar last week, apart from that - nothing?

He hasn't even played a full game yet, give him a chance, he's a quality forward. If he gets into form not many defences can stop him.

No. Look at Arsenal's fixtures, easy choice to leave that transfer another couple of weeks

Everyone's teams are starting to sound very identical.

Things will change. Once Studge comes back and/if Falcao catches fire, there'll be at least five contenders for your first two striker spots. We've alread got good variation -- Welbeck, Ulloa, Pelle -- for the third spot. Walcott's return and a Silva/City run will shake the midfield. Ditto if Hazard picks it up. And as the big teams tighten up at the back, people will have to ditch some of the cheap defenders.

And he who reacts fastest shall prosper.

ADM is shaking up the "template" midfield of Ramsey, Sterling, Cesc, Siggy and I'm sure there will be more

Had 2 FT this week so went Ramsey < Di Maria and Naismith < Ulloa. Haven't played my WC yet, think I'm going to wait until the international break. My bench is non-existent though and I have de Jong who's worth 6.9m sitting injured

Done exactly the same. Also did Ballotelli to Pelle.

Didn't you get the memo. The revised template midfield, which is in nearly all teams in the rmt is ADM, Fab, Sterling, Siggy, Boyd.

And my midfield after last week wildcard.

Get it sorted...

Arsenal have Spurs next - north London derby - what a time for Welbeck to make himself a hero... Chelsea the following week - another big game, the games after that don't look to bad, and then a chance to play United he'd be up for that game and with united defence currently non existent wouldn't be surprised to see him score.

Compare him with Falcao, United have a lot of defensive issues and not many fit players in that area, LVG may rest one of his attacking stars for a more defensive minded player in midfield.

As you said he hasn't completed a game yet - strongly tempted to do the transfer,

Yeah I'm on my WC and will most likely end on that midfield (although may do Tadic instead of Siggy). I was just pointing out the template from a fortnight ago.

Necronomicon

Straw poll: I'm thinking of transferring out either De Gea or Rooney for Forster or Pelle respectively. Which should take precedence?

SantryRed

WC has been done and I'm really happy with the look of my team. Have gone with the cheap defenders/ expensive mid/att.

GK: Mannone, McCarthy
DF: Duff, Chambers, Bertrand, Hutton, Wisdom
MF: Sig, Di Maria, Quinn, Fabregas, Sterling
FW: Costa, Aguero, Welbeck/Pelle.

Haven't decided on whether to go with Pelle or Welbeck. Think I may bring in Pelle and then transfer him out after 2 weeks.

With Welbeck in the team, I currently have 1.6m left over too and not really sure what to do with it :pac: May look to upgrade to a Chelsea defender once they get their **** together.

Tough one. But De Gea IMO, Rooney might still do something but I wouldn't bet on United keeping a clean sheet any time soon.

Go for it. I'll have a friendly bet with you that Falcao will outscore him over the next 2 games.

I just don't see the logic of having an expensive sub for the odd occasion that you'll need him and taking valuable funds away from your first 11. For next weekend, my subs will probably be Taylor, Dummett and King. Taylor could easily pick up a clean sheet away at Sunderland so I'm happy to have him as first sub. My front 7 will be Siggy, Di Maria, Fabregas, Sterling, Aguero, Costa and Welbeck. Which of those should I downgrade just so I can have an expensive player on the bench?

You made the point that you are happy with a one or two point scoring sub.

CSF

Thinking about Evans and Krul to Bertrand and Courtois

Western Pomise

Thinking of transferring Aguero out for a few weeks till he's 100% fit...betwixt and between Ulloa and Pelle,both seem to have one tricky game and one handy in their next two,
Will have plenty of dosh in bank...so Pelle or Ulloa lads???

alchemist33

IMO, if you have Aguero you don't get rid of him until he breaks.

Very true...but he's coming back quite tentatively this year,he may well not play this weekend.

alchemist33

The tentativeness is one reason I haven't got him yet, but then you never know which week he might explode into life, and if you already have him...

Up to -8 now ade and krul to forster and costa. I may not be finished yet.

9 goals in his last 11 away matches and Hull are leaky.

Play wildcard now or wait till after tonight's league cup games??

If you play it now you can make transfers until as often as you want until the deadline, so no reason to not play it now.

bezuaua

Forster (Elliot)

Ivanovic | Wilson | N.Taylor (Duff + Moore)

Fabregas | ADM | Siggy | Sterling (Marney)

Costa | Welbeck | Balotelli


Still have 1FT (after dumping Krul)… Is it time to get Pellè for crazy-mario ??

IsMiseMyself

Balotelli isn't worth his price tag right now.

Am i right in saying Silva is useless and worth getting rid of...?

No, but that doesn't mean he's going in my team either

Silva was my main differential so far and it didn't work out. Sterling, Fabregas, DiMaria, Siggy and Silva looks like a perfect combo at this stage as I can't think of any other mid to take his spot.

This would leave me with 352 formation, though.

I will either get rid of him and play Costa / Wellbeck / Pelle or Aguero, or keep Silva and leave 1 forward on the bench.

Given the performance of the expensive defenders I have too much money to spend for attacking players. Does anyone know when City, Chelsea, Arsenal and Everton start defending properly?

Nichololas

Krul | Mannone
Terry | Clyne | Wisom {Coloccini , Vlaar}
Fabregas | Di Maria | Sterling | Sigurdsson {El Ahmadi}
Costa | Aguero | Naismith

Rooney out, Aguero in, 0.1 in the bank.

Still have 4-5 transfers to make to shape up the team I want, but this should hold for now! Anyone know when Vlaar is coming back? Should be worth keeping as a 4.5 defender if Villa stay good.

Naismith should be next on your list. Krul and Coloccini, too.

If I was you I would do Naismith - Ulloa first and Rooney to Aguero next week.

AdMMM

James Ward-Prowse out for between eight and twelve weeks with a stress fracture to his foot.

Shame, I thought he was going to have a great season! (I didn't have him, but definitely saw value in having him)

TacT

Seriously niggling at me here. Need to do henderson to sterling and rooney to pelle, ulloa or welbeck. -8 or to wildcard is the question?

I'd take the -8 point hit to be honest.
The WC can be of more "value" later in the season.

(I've take -12 points hits so far in the competition)
Tis grand if it works out (which it has for me)

Ziegler1988

Something to be aware of is that there are no PL fixtures during FA Cup 6th round weekend (there were last season). So there won't be as many DGWers if that's the main reason for holding on.

DVDM93

Welbeck or Pellé?
Rooney or Aguero?

Help me pick who to put with Costa this weekend please, wildcard activated. Thanks

I'd stick with what i have rather than do either hit tbh if i was you. 8pts is a lot this stage of the season and you havent got bad players to sell. Re-evaluate after tonight/Saturday.

What luck has he gotten?

He's playing as the main forward for an inform Southampton team with a strong run of games getting support from Tadic, Long, Schneiderlin and soon Mane too. Plus Clyne and Bertrand from Fullback who seem intent on pushing forwards

Would've have needed another 0.1 to do Rooney->Aguero next week if I had done Naismith->Ulloa. Leicester will probably beat Palace but I reckon Everton will also knock in a couple against Liverpool (sure didn't they let in 14 just last night), my only worry is Naismith not getting game time.

Agree about Krul and Coloccini. Want to switch to 5.0|4.0 keepers instead of 4.5|4.5 though so I'll see what I can manage.

That's a very interesting development and something that hasn't happened before. There will be much less games called off for cup competitions so. We are looking at the carling cup final and fa cup semi final causing some future dgws. The fa cup semis are gw 33 so there will be disruption there and the games called off will be re fixed for gw 34 most likely due to there being no midweek cl. Barring weather postponements we should expect half the dgw games of previous years.

I've gone 5.0|4.0 keepers & have gone with Forster & Mc Carthy! Koeman running a tight ship & I can see McCarthy becoming No.1 at QPR soon with them also tightening up

Dubliner28

Going with a 3-4-3 this week

Forster

Clyne Duff Ivanovic
Siggy/Seb Larsson Cesc Di Maria Sterling
Pelle Costa Ulloa

Whos like to get more points from Siggy/Larsson? Is Larsson on set pieces for Sunderland ?

Princess13

Does anyone know the clean sheet odds for the following teams:

Burnley
Swansea
Sunderland
Leicester
WBA

I'm in work trying to pick my team for the weekend and haven't access to betting sites. I need to pick 3 defenders from Duff, Taylor, van Aanholt, Moore and Wisdom.
