Gameweek 10 transfers

Iused2likebusts

Im going to stick with my plan of hazard in even if siggy is injured. Ill just have to come up with a creative way of doing it if siggy is injured. If siggy is fit it will be silva to hazard. Ive been talking about hazard for weeks so will be kicking myself if he scores big and I dont bring him in.

Need help languishing around 500k overall even though I think my team looks reasonable.
Any advice

Gk Bekovic + Myhill
Def Bertrand + Hutton + Moore + Duff + Van Aanholt
Mid ADM + Fab + Sterling + King + Siggy
FWD Aguero + Pelle + Costa

Is a wildcard required or a couple of hits?
Thanks

Looks pretty decent. Stoke haven't been great in defence, maybe move begovic out for someone with a good run of fixtures?

I see a lot of people willing/selling Fabregas for Hazard or Sanchez. Is it really worth it considering both are dearer?

Fabregas is on 1 goal & 8 assists with 9 BPs in 9 games. So he gets something every game on average and is on 1 BP per game. Doesn't he offer the consistency and security which define a must-have player?

People argued that he won't keep his assisting rate which is abnormally high but he could improve his scoring rate which I believe is lower than expected.

Ziegler1988

I don't think I would be buying Cesc for 9.7m, but he's the most secure member of my current midfield. He just keeps ticking over and besides being on the Suspension Tightrope now is one of my best decisions this season.

Stoke actually have the 3rd best defensive record in the league 10 goals conceded. However from a FF perspective they have the annoying habit of conceding 1 goal most weeks without ever getting well beaten.

He's done brilliantly but i get the feeling Hazard will start outscoring him very soon. Hazard is so explosive and it looks like he's getting close to his best - points will follow. You could of course own both, but if just one i'd wager on Hazard being the better bet going forward. Sanchez is a class act tho i'm not sure he's worth the price tag. Ramsey and Walcott coming back into the Arsenal side will surely lessen his appeal somewhat. 2 goals this week but both were defensive calamities. He capitalized well tho

Mr.Prodston

I've been toying with the idea of switching Fab out for a few weeks if I WC and just swap with Hazard. With just 1 yellow away it could be clever or end up missing a League cup game.

Hazard has a goal bonanza itching to explode and I want to on him for that. In theory I'd then be free to swap between them for the season then. I want Sanchez too but I'm wary of ditching ADM. But I'm struggling to pick my other 1/2 starting mids as I'll get Siggy out for a while.

The inclusion/exclusion of Baines and Costa will go along way with my budget too.

Silly wildcard thoughts hurting my brain!

Nice one, that's pretty interesting. You'd hope it's only a matter of time to when they go on a good patch of clean sheets.

wonski

Thinking of bringing Silva back into my team (for Sterling).

Siggurdson is injured but I can't see a replacement for him at this moment tbh. Will wait and see.

tom_k

Have swapped out Sterling for Sanchez. Still have another FT with possible candidates for a move out including Welbeck, Siggy and my ever disappointing goalkeeper, Heaton.

IsMiseMyself

If Siggy is actually injured, I might go a bit mad and take a punt on Fellaini.

Ye I think they are one of the more organised teams in the league. However they had a great run of opening fixtures which returned very few clean sheets so from a FF perspective it doesnt look good. In 9 league games 10 goals conceded they have 2 clean sheets, 5 games they let in 1 goal, 1 game they let in 2 and 1 game they let in 3.
Burnley on the otherhand have let in 16 goals however they have 3 clean sheets.
Stoke have a tough run of fixtures coming soon.

Mane is the glaring obvious choice. He has actually outscored Siggurdson since he moved to the league.

Thanks but he is too expensive and from Southampton, so can't do it.

The only one I can think of is Chadli, but i am not too excited about him tbh.

I wouldn't hold my breath 0 goals or assists last season in an attacking Southampton team. There is a reason Wenger sees him as a centre back and not a right back.

Guys...Everybody rushed for Sanchez, but who have seen his goals vs. Hull? C'mon...It was right place right time imo.

I'd say Hazard is more profitable investment than Sanchez.

1. He costs 9,9 and Sanchez 10.3

2. Chelsea schedule:
QPR H
Liverpool A (never knows)
West Brom H
Sunderland A
Spurs H (Newcastle beat them up)
Newcastle A
Hull H

in comparison to Arsenal's schedule:

Burnley H
Swansea A (solid team)
United H (Rooney and Falcao will/could be back)
WBA A
Saints H (the best defence in PL)
Stoke A
Newcastle H

could look similar, but Arsenal has lack of consistency, regularity and a bit of tougher games, when Chelsea looks more and more like machine.

3. I keep Costa and have Fabs on the pitch, anyway consider next Chelsea's player.

4. I worry about rotations

What you guess?

internet_user

Think i'll just be doing elliot to jakupovic to make sure i've a keeper playing due to the uncertainty over mannone

Thinking ADM and Peile out for Sanchez and Welbeck, and -4 , or Sterling for Walcott and take a chance

Whatever about anything else it would be might brave to transfer Pelle out just yet.

You can't have them all, can you?

Both Sanchez and Hazard are players who can score in any game. Hazard was very close to score last night.

It is only a matter of time when Hazard hits double digits but I already have Fab and Costa so can't see a need for him at this moment.

Sanchez is 10.4 now btw.

I have Wilson in defence.

Stoke have a very tough set of fixtures coming up – West Ham (home), Spurs (away), Burnley (home), Liverpool (Away), Utd (Home), Arsenal (Away), Crystal Palace (Away), Chelsea (Home), Everton (Away).

I can’t see them getting many clean sheets at all. Realistically only about 1 clean sheet from the next 9 games.

Thinking of getting Alcarez for Everton. He’s only 4.3m so I can free up 0.2 m from selling Wilson.

Can any Everton fans confirm if he will still get his game?

Walcott hasn't even started yet. I would wait and see.

Pelle is in good form - not sure if replacing him with Welbeck is such a good idea. With Hull away and Leicester at home next I can see the Saints scoring few goals. And when they score, Pelle is involved.

I have exactly enough for ADM to Sanchez , would I be mad getting rid of ADM

I did it this gameweek - can't complain:D

It is 50/50. Sanchez is more likely to score while ADM to assist.
Wouldn't be sure who will get more points in next weeks tbh.

mufcboy1999

I wouldn't get rid of adm, everything is going through him and United will score. My plan is to leave costa up top with ageuro and double up on United attacking cover with adm and Rooney after the city game.

I'll only have the one Chelsea player but costa when back will be on the end of most chances , out and out goal scorer.

My back line will be fairly weak bar baines when I bring Rooney in, I don't believe in playing for clean sheets anyway , very frustrating but baines is essentially a winger so he should continue to score points.

If ramsey hits form il downgrade sanchez to free up some money.

Adm to hazard next week lads what you think.?Adm v man city, hazard v qpr.

Exact move I'm considering. I'd probably captain Hazard as well.
If the conspiracy theorists are somehow correct that Cesc will play against Shrewsbury and deliberately pick up a yellow to be suspended for QPR, it will be Cesc to Hazard instead.

I like your thinkin;) oh and would i be better off tradin up from alderwerield to clyne in the long run?

Might as well stick with Aldy. Most people will be looking to get rid of their Southampton defenders in a few weeks anyway

Conspiracy theories are great but do you really think Fab will start this game?

I would expect reserves to play tbh.

All he need is to show up and take off his shirt for few seconds, though.

I don't expect him to be in the squad tomorrow, but Mourinho is well known for having his players pick up deliberate bookings so they aren't suspended for key matches.

Can't remember the details now.

Nope, nobody can confirm that.

According to Everton fans, Alcaraz is rubbish, but Distin is the alternative. Distin was rumoured to have had a run in with the manager, but he played last week in Europe.

50/50 as to which will play any of the next 6 weeks.

Think that may have been Silva/City in Dec of last year iirc.

Transferred in Sakho only now he's injured.

With Siggy &Costa in my team major surgery is needed.

Costa should be fine by next weekend. Apparently he had a fitness test yesterday and they thought he was a bit "weak" to play. He trained on Saturday.

I'd also expect Siggy not to be too bad as he felt his groin before the game but still played.

Sakho is apparently going to miss anything between two and four weeks.

Cheers for that.

With 0.1 ITB would you straight swap Sakho for someone & take 4 point hit or wait til wkend to hear more on the others

SantryRed

If Fabregas goes up another 0.1m, I can afford him to Hazard. Think I'll do that transfer once he goes up which I'd expect him to.

Am also tempted to go ADM -> Sanchez or Hazard, and possibly have 2 Chelsea midfielders and Costa. Think that might be overkill though.

If you have a decent sub to come in, I'd leave it. Sakho will miss max 2 games it appears with the international break.

Sakho will be out for 1-4 weeks after Saturday's game ! Max out for 2 games

1 weeks is best case
4 weeks is worst case

And with Liverpool away the following week I thought it might not be outside the realms of possibility that Mourinho might do what he has done on a number of occasions at Real (I think it was under Mourinho at least) with the intentional suspensions.

Again, like a significant amount of my postings, probably wishful thinking.

Alfred Borden

Feel stupid for getting rid of Siggy but its the only way to work Sanchez into my team. taking comfort that he might be injured and his next three games are not too appealing anyways.
