Worthwhile for a FT?
I really want Benteke in as I'm worried he could go nuts against Norwich.
He is a close 2nd to Kun in all captain polls I've seen.

Ye that's different I could see why you would do that.

There's been nothing to suggest that Benteke will go nuts against anyone. Pool have looked poor going forward. Can see another 1-0 win. I have Gomis and will be hanging on to him.

It's a very close call. My thoughts are that Norwich have been very good going forward but are leaking goals. But as you say Pool haven't been free scoring. It's a coin toss at this stage. Might do Pedro > Coutinho instead as he is injured and Chelsea have been pants!

What are people's thoughts on Coutinho for attacking Liverpool coverage?

Also, will Joe Gomez start at the weekend do pool fans think? Has looked poor last few matches.

I hope he doesn't he is one of the reasons for the weaknesses in attack. I wouldn't mind him at cb though.

I have 2 FTs and my team is crying out for change. Just not sure what way to attack it.

Big problems are Hazard and Ritchie. Neither are performing and have lost me .4 in value.

Ruddy, McCarthy
Kolorov, Bellerin, Cedric, Francis, Huth
Hazard, Ozil, Ayew, Ritchie, Fletcher
Aguero, Benteke, Sakho

0.2 ITB.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I want a third City player so I'm looking at Yaya at the moment.

hufpc8w3adnk65

Advice here lads

De Gea ruddy
Bellerin Kolorov Lescott Target Gomez
Puncheon Hazard Mahrez Depay Fletcher
Wilson Gomis Aguero

Puncheon is a doubt and hazard and depay have been poison recently only 1ft

I see logic in Pedro transfer but if Aguero is fit for weekend, came on as sub in CL, why would you want him out?

Of the 3 I'd lose Hazard.
Missed a pen last night and Oscar took one later in the match.
You could the go for an Arsenal or City midfielder or Coutinho or Ayew or .....plenty of choices

Coutinho and payet are both higher then any Arsenal mids at the min as cazorla is prob the best bet but he's playing very deep. Who would you go for? Silva an option too

Vardy or Wilson on Wildcard?

I dont think Gomez will play. There's a severe lack of width in the team at the moment and Gomez is not going to give much going forward. Moreno should be back in the team soon and I'd guess ahead of 2 home games now would be best time to bring him back in.

Coutinho was playing well before the red card and I'm considering bringing him in too but he's always a gamble in FPL, he's never really delivered consistently.

My mid is Silva Mahrez Sanchez Mane Anya
Looking at your front 8 you have no Arsenal, Man City, or Liverpool to name just three say.
Cazorla (with dead ball and pen. duties) would be my Arsenal pick second only to Sanchez.
Since you haven't used your wildcard (like me) Coutinho looks the best Liverpool option up to the next international break.
Puncheon would be my first pick ahead of Sako and Boalise.
Think Payet is on all our wish lists.
So If I was in your position I'd go Hazard to Coutinho but you would get a lot of different answers/opinions as you know.

Haven't watched more than one Bournemouth match in full, but Vardy has looked great. I'm a Wilson skeptic

Me too. His chance conversion rate the last time I checked was about 50%. There's not a hope in hell he keeps that up, it's virtually impossible.

theRB

Are either of the City fullbacks nailed on to start once everyone is healthy? Kolarov the safer option?

I took Vardy in the same position. Has pens, very high BP potential and nice fixtures.
Last weeks scores were 5, 1, 5, 8, and 6.

Mahrez is on pens.
Vardy took one because Mahrez gad been subbed.
I would go with Wilson.

Arsenal's next 6 are che, lei, MUN wat, EVE, swa.
Would it be unwise to downgrade Cech? Possible save points but don't see a lot of clean sheets there tbh.
Possibly get Myhill in.

Only if you have nothing more pressing to do.

2 Transfers, 0.7 in bank, Myhill and Targett to replace shortly but not this week/

Midfield of Mahrez, Sanchez, Silva, Anya, Pedro,

Pedro injured so who do i replace him with in order to leave money for upgrade on Targett.

Have 3 City players already so not Yaya or sterling.

Who're you targetting to replace Targett ? I mean how much you need to downgrade Pedro?

Short-term you could take a punt on a 'Pool mid. Long-term, one of Ayew or Payet could be worth it. But I'll repeat again about Payet, he's the kind you keep long-term or ignore. You'll have to swallow 2,3 or 4 games with nothing to get the benefit of an explosive return like last Monday. Ayew should be more consistent but he's also unproven at this level (the French league has unfortunately gone down a good bit these last 10-15 years ).

The PL is on a downward spiral of late also

Yeah but compared to Ligue 1 PL is like Champions League football.

If you exclude PSG and to a lesser extent Monaco, our clubs can't even manage to beat Belgium (Lyon failing to win in Gand the other day while playing a whole half 11 vs 10 and even finishing 11 v 9 but missing a penalty :rolleyes:), Cypriot, Romanian, Ukrainian and even Azeri teams :rolleyes:. I mean no offense to these clubs and countries but we always complain about our lack of financial power compared to the big leagues so what is our excuse when those leagues' clubs knock us out ?! Our football needs a revolution!

Lemlin

My team:

Myhill/McCarthy
Shaw Kolarov Gomez Huth Saylor
Pedro Sterling Ayew Mahrez Fletcher
Aguero Benteke Wilson

I now have Shaw and Pedro missing for this weekend. I am thinking about holding Shaw for the time being and going Pedro to Sanchez. Opinions?

I also like the risk of Pedro to Walcott. Giroud foolishly got himself sent off last night whereas Walcott scored for the second game in succession. He has also played 69 minutes and 74 minutes in his last two PL games.

I have the same, Shaw and Pedro,will probably move Shaw for -4, .1 gain on him. With Giroud out for next CL game, good chance he will feature in PL instead of Walcott.

I'd wait on news of Pedro if it's only a week I'll likely hold. However I already have sanchez.

I think he was dropped for a while before after a similar situation to what had happened against Zagreb. The fact that he started against DZ probably means that Wenger was thinking of starting Walcott on the weekend as well. I think it's too risky to buy Giroud as he may be subbed on in matches with a dozen minutes left. I could see reason for the reverse, as Walcott looks like scoring everytime he comes onto the pitch. Even if he doesn't start half the games, he could still get you a decent return.

Transferring out Aguero because you don't like having 3 players from a team seems pretty crazy even if he hasn't started with a bang yet.

I'd expect Walcott to start this week it's the next two league games either side of a cl game that I can see giroud get a start in. There is an argument for getting Walcott in knowing he won't start all games and seeing how that works out. He could still give good returns.

Move Naughton surely but Pedro is expected fit 26th so hold, unless you're done with him completely.

kronsington

took the -4 on pedro to sanchez. bit of a gamble after how bad arsenal were last night but whatever. bottled it last week by leaving payet on the bench and not going 2-5-3 and lost ground in my leagues. team as is

myhill
darmian richards sagna
barkely mahrez sanchez toure

Mahrez & Gomis without doubt.

That was my first thought as well and thought it would be a bit of a margin but FFFix reckon its going to be super tight and FFS RMT even goes as far as Wilson & Chadli outscoring them by a few points. Was surprised at that.
