    Given the form and fixtures a Leicester attacker is probably still worth having. Siggy could be a good differential too although Swans don't have much to play for and fixtures not so great.

    I'd agree with busts about there being no point chasing to get Myhill. If you want to free up cash for Sanchez I'd look at freeing it from that midfield.

    Swansea are still putting in good performances and getting quite a few goals!

    Monk has been banging on about achieving their best ever PL points tally, now that they achieved that they might be heading to the beach early - still they look like they are enjoying their football and scoring a couple of goals!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Brought in Sanchez and PVA for Sterling and Terry!

    No hit taken as I had 2 FT's - considering 2 more transfers for an 8 point hit!

    Yeah, I knew that and think it could be a factor all right. Its the only reason I'd be considering Siggy or mentioning as an option for those with more than Albrighton money.

    Guys I’m sending myself crazy this week, ahead by 50 in my league but steadily losing ground every week. Am getting rid of Fab and Sterling this week to bring in Sanchez which leaves me 6.6 million for a mid fielder, I have Sanchez, Hazard, Downing and Puncheon. I already have Schlupp and Vardy so think Albrighton would be overkill on the Leicester front (though my nearest rival has him) Sigurdsson is within price range though he has a tough few fixtures coming up. Realistically whoever I buy this week, I plan to sell next week along with Aguero to get Giroud and Ramsey for the DGW.

    So suggestions for a good midfielder for in and around 6.5 million?

    50 points ahead, I would just be covering my rivals. What are their differentials apart from Albrighton?
    I wouldn't be getting rid of Aguero if they have him.

    £2.4m in the bank.

    Keeper: Neither have a great fixture for me this week. Then next week I have the head scratcher of playing Mig at home to Crystal Palace, or Panti in the DGW...

    Defense: I suspect Terry will still play even if Jose roates later on, so perhaps Ivan will need to be shipped out, but I'll save that for next week as he has a nack of grabbing goals against stronger teams.

    Midfield: Henderson is probably on thinnest ice, perhaps I could dump him for Ramsey.

    Up front: Was considering Kane to Benteke, but as a Villa fan, I know that putting Benteke in the team will surely put the hex on him, so I'm staying away from that. Happy to keep Giroud for the ensuing DGW and Aguero at home to QPR.

    So in sum, I am labouring over a change at keeper or swapping out Henderson to Ramsey. Any thoughts?

    Henderson to Ramsey definitely seems the better out of those options. That'll leave you with no Arsenal for the Dgw, though, but three attackers is as valid an approach as any.

    Edit: best to wait on definite injury news on Ramsey.

    although Sterling hasn't been firing I would be keeping him in before Downing.

    Can you move Downing on and get Grealish in?

    It's like Bolasie/Defoe all over again, everyone is getting in Grealish,

    The fact that he hasn't score/got assist in the league seems to be going unnoticed by folk.


  • Registered Users Posts: 387 ✭✭El festino


    Is there still room on the Albrighton train?? Might hop on two weeks late...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 268 ✭✭Little Bubbles


    What's the story with begovic. Has he lost his place or rested.

    I see him as a poor man's Jack Wilshere - can start some great moves and pick a great pass but terrible fantasy-wise as he's rarely delivering the final pass.

    Can't decide on whether to bring in Sanchez or Ramsey (for Sterling) this week.

    Sanchez quite expensive, so would limit my options a bit if I went for him. But Ramsey is orange flagged. I've seen quotes saying he's fine, but is there any chance he'll be rested?

    For me it's a matter of Ramsey as well as Sanchez, not instead of. Nobody could kill you more in the DGW than a heavily captained Sanchez. Considered going Rambo only but have both now.

    As an owner I'm fairly hopeful Ramsey will be fine for Swansea, but I wouldn't bring him in, certainly not over Sanchez.

    Wenger's press conference is tomorrow, usually early enough in the morning, so might be some clarity on Ramsey then.

    That's my exact plan. Hendo is out for him next week. Had to take a -4 to downgrade my keeper to afford it but it'll be well worth it for the double, I reckon. :cool:

    Cheers. Yeah, really just thinking of this week, I really want both before the DGW, but just trying to figure out the best way! Am struggling with a lack of cash.

    Mig - Myhill
    Terry - Berty - Wooly - PVA - Okore
    Hazard - Silva - Hendo - Sterling - Boyd
    Aguero - Kane - Benteke

    Hendo and Sterling are the two outstanding ones to move on. Can afford Ramsey + Ozil/Cazorla for them. Can only Ramsey + Sanchez in for Sterling and Hendo, if I also swap Terry out for Bellerin (maybe not a bad idea!).

    Alternatively, I can keep Hendo, and Ramsey + Sanchez in for Sterling + Silva or Hazard.

    I think you're right on Sanchez. Hadn't thought about the captaincy for the DGW, surely he'll be the outstadning choice. I think this week I'll go Sterling to Sanchez, and then see how the land lies before the DGW.

    Sanchez is the better option this week and the DGW. It would take balls of steel to go without him, although it would have paid off that fateful February midweek against Leicester :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,557 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I presume we're all worried to an extent that players will be rested some week by Arsenal with the FA Cup final in mind, meaning the extra game may not be an extra game at all?

    I'm not overly worried Wenger doesn't go into rotation as much as most from what I recall. Having said that I'll probably end up picking what I'd class as the safer options from potential rotation to go with sanchez.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,787 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Ramsey 50/50 for Monday according to Wengers press conference. I was going to bring him in for Sterling but not going to risk it...time to look at Ozil or Cazorla.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Best way of getting in Giroud? 1FT and 0.8 in the bank

    Downgrade sterling to Albrighton & upgrade Vardy to Giroud?

    Your team is nearly exactly same as mine.

    There was some last year in the run up though right? Have Sanchez already, it's whether to add to that I'm unsure of.

    That's a bugger, I was planning the same transfer.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,252 ✭✭✭harpstilidie


    Would appreciate some opinions folks. I'm in the Harps Cup Final so need some help as my opponent has his WC active.

    Options are:

    Option A: Sterling and Benteke (Kane Out)
    Option B: Silva and Kane (Sterling Out)
    Option C: Silva and Giroud (Sterling Out)
    Option D: Silva and Benteke (-4) (Sterling and Giroud out)

    Current forwards are Kane, Giroud and Aguero. I'm scared not going with Benteke :(

    Team is:

    Mig

    Terry Bellerin Schlupp PVA Wolly

    Hazard Sanchez Henderson Sterling Boyd

    Kane Giroud Aguero

    I have spoken to #AFC to clarify the availability of Ramsey

    "He could play" if needed but with other options available he may not be risked

    Id sell sterling for silva in your position. You have a strong front 3 and by getting silva for sterling you are strengthening your starting eleven. Id also consider taking a chance and play boyd over hendo. If benteke blanks you could well beat a wildcard team.

    Yeah was always doing Sterling to Silva. It's just whether or not to go for Benteke but it would mean a -4 which probably isn't the best thing to do when in a H2H.

    It's a big 'IF'. I can see him scoring a couple tomorrow :( if I don't get him in I'm hoping Kane/Giroud will outscore him. Boyd against his former club is an interesting one alright.

    Not holding out much hope against a WC team though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,256 ✭✭✭✭km79


    united camp badly affected by a virus
    if I hear mata is a doubt ill take a -4 to switch him for cazorla

    lads is carzola the man to take a penalty is he?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    This Week:

    Vardy to Benteke and Sterling to Grealish (-4)

    Next week:

    Kane to Giroud and Skrtel to Bellerin (-4)

    Is that too much hits? It's just I really want Benteke Giroud and Aguero. I'm hoping Bellerin keeps his place?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,557 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I'm really afraid of Benteke being rested last day of the season if Villa are safe.

    Makes me not want to go for him.

    Id only -4 for benteke if you are going to captain him. Its quite possible kane or giroud will get 6 pts meaning without captaincy benteke needs to get 10 to break even.

    Yes unless Arteta is on the pitch. Coquelin is much better than Arteta so I don't think he would feature unless everything was safe on the last day

    Villa are at home on the last day of the season so you'd have to hope that they'd go for it.

    Can anyone see a transfer in this?

    Schmeichel/Ospina
    Terry, Schlupp, Skrtel, Alder, Duff
    Cork, Hazard, Henderson, Sanchez, Silva
    Aguero, Vardy, Kane
    3.5 million in bank.

    I had planned to go Henderson to Ramsey but its not worth risking now. I think I'll just go Vardy to Giroud.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Dumped Hazard. And then Murray also.

    Brought in Ramsey and Benteke for -4.

    Hazard has been an ever present this season for me so it'll be a bit scary without him. :(

    Still sitting at 2.4k and really want to make the top 1k, so tempted to captain Benteke over Aguero.

    You could go along similar lines as original plan and go Henderson to Cazorla. Agree Vardy > Giround is the obvious alternative.

    I have basically the same team and went vardy giroud. Don't fancy arsenal clean sheets much in the last few games so trebled up on attack (already have Ramsey and Sanchez). Granted, being lumped with Henderson is a bit crap but fantasy is a funny game so you never know!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,634 ✭✭✭miller82


    Played the WC.

    Current team and set up as follows :



    Schmeichel

    McShane --- Bellerin --- Schlupp

    Sanchez --- Cambiasso --- Silva ---Hazard

    Giroud --- Benteke --- Aguero

    Bench : Gilks - Siggy - Hutton - Cresswell




    Cant decide on Siggy v Cambiasso

    anyone any suggestions for any otehr transfers i could play ? WC still in play

  • Registered Users Posts: 378 ✭✭John83


    On my WC and struggling on whether I need Silva or not.

    Current team is:

    Ospina
    Terry - Alder - Dawson
    Hazard - Sanchez - Coutinho - Henderson
    Aguero - Giroud - Benteke
    Subs: Myhill, Shlupp, Albrighton, PVA

    To get Silva I'd need to go something like this:

    Ospina
    Okore - Alder - Shlupp
    Hazard - Sanchez - Coutinho - Silva
    Aguero - Giroud - Benteke
    Subs: Myhill, Chester, Albrighton, PVA

    Any feedback would be great!

    one week GK punt; looking at myhill/guzan/harper

    Hull have best odds for clean sheet but WBA have been doing well lately


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,352 ✭✭✭OneColdHand


    Does anyone care to hazard a guess at which Arsenal defenders are most likely to play the most minutes over the final few GWs? Thinking of bringing one in for a hit this week, as I think they have a good chance of cleanie against Swansea.

    Was looking a Kosc, but Bellerin is tempting, as he's quite a bit cheaper and would leave me with some funds for next week.

    Don't fancy Cazorla or Ozil to be honest. I might just bank the transfer and have two next week. I can't afford Vardy to Giroud and I'm not sure Ramsey is worth moving in over Henderson. Stranger things have happened than Henderson grabbing a goal vs Chelsea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    What 3 should I start out of Dawson (A - Newcastle), Terry (A - Liverpool), Bellerin (H - Swansea), Clyne (A - Leicester). Or should I drop Sterling and start them all?
