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 ).

Bellerin after the Chelsea game. Also might need to change Myhill or Macarthy if that goes south.
I had a look at Shaquiri's fixtures, they look decent until November. Thoughts?
I didnt think Coutinho but 3 pool players is a bit much considering they are playing poor, have Benteke and Gomez

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.

If you have the time and want to gamble, sometimes the 12:45 games have the team released early, if you knew that Walcott was starting then you could transfer him in.

MaxPower89

Nay on 3 Liverpool players for sure, look pretty abject from what I've seen.
Have Shaquiri myself for 2 weeks, no returns but I suspect he will come good over the next while.

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.

You only have 3 fit defenders and one of them Is Gomez who could be dropped. I'd transfer out Shaw.

sahko to diouf was the plan
but then I have to bench one of Sanchez mata ayew yaya or mahrez ...........

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
gomis wilson aguero

payet williams saylor boruc

thoughts please!

Keep an eye on Boruc re. price fall especially if he fails to record a cs against Sunderland.
With your strong front 8 you are primed for the AOA chip so decide if and when to use it over the coming weeks.

Necronomicon

My 3 transfers (-4) of Huth -> Nyom, Sakho -> Ighalo, Bentaleb -> Mahrez leaves me with the following:

Myhill
Bellerin Kolarov Gomez
Pedro Ozil Yaya Payet Mahrez
Aguero Benteke

Hennessy, Ighalo, Targett, Nyom

Happy with that now, but the WC is still there if any radical changes are needed in the next few weeks.

Pedro to Couthino done, Depay gets yet another stay of execution.

I'm in the same boat regarding Pedro to Sanchez. About Walcott, was already burnt by him earlier so it's a no for me. I look at it mid to long term. Sanchez has been excellent. It defies all logic that he didn't get bigger FPL returns. The only thing is it's Chelsea this week and they/Mourinho know(s) how to silence them. So taking a punt on Walcott away to Chelsea doesn't sound reasonable. And even if he does score, with Giroud CL suspension, Walcott should be benched before the next (must win) CL game. So unless you plan on using your WC that'd be another transfer issue to deal with.

What Saints defender are you going for?

ThunbergsAreGo

Depay and Westwood to payet and ayew? Any thoughts?

Have 1.5m to play with. Depay with Sunderland next but he hadn't been near points

Payet and Ayew have WAY better form right now. Aston Villa have a tough enough schedule also. Man U not particularly appealing schedule either. I think it should pay off.

Colking

For 5.3 what do you think ? He plays in the hole and should benefit from Shaquiri marauding runs etc.

EoinAFC

Is Swansea 3 players- Fabianski/Ayew/Gomis too risky?

Thinking of taking Ayew out for Mahrez, i'm just worried he'll stop collecting points.

Fixtures look a bit tough, plenty of games away from home.

Stoke (A)
Arsenal (H)
Norwich (A)
Crystal Palace (H)
West Brom (A)
Watford (H)

They look like decent fixtures to me. On Penalties and Corners if Leicster score there is a good chance he is involved

Iused2likebusts

Did surman to mahrez last nite to give me a strong front 8. May take a -4 if Pedro looks like being out for more than 1 week.

Agree, may even get in Vardy who may capitalise too.

I now have both mahrez and vardy. Vardy is getting overlooked due to the fact he plays for the same team as mahrez.

SantryRed

I've two free transfers so need to use one this week, but I really amn't sure what to do with it. Team is as follows:

Ruddy, McCarthy
Nyom, Gomez, Kolorov, Darmian, Richards
Cabaye, Silva, Mahrez, Payet, Sanchez
Gomis, Ighalo, Aguero

Have 1m in the bank. I'd like to get Benteke but can't without making two transfers. I think Cabaye is most likely for the chopping block but what do people think?

Cabaye to Ayew? he has very good fixtures and in good form

Was thinking that but I'd want to dump Gomis for that. Don't like having 2 attacking players from a mid table team.

Colking

lougal88 wrote: »

Cabaye to Ayew could be good alright, or maybe Cabaye to Chadli as a differential ?

Eriksen should be back this week and or next and this could kick start spurs again.

I agree that Cabaye is currently looking like the weak link though.

I never fully understand this theory. Why not have 2 from one mid table team? It depends more on form and Swansea are red hot.

They beat Utd at home and both players got high scores. Yes they wont do that every week but the potential is there. I'd have Gomis/Ayew over Gomis/Chadli, Barkley and a host of other 7-7.5 mids.

As a Watford fan, Swansea looked anything but red hot last weekend when we beat them last week :pac:



On a side note, I'm actually off to Newcastle-Watford this weekend too, so Nyom and Ighalo are 100% starting :pac:

The biggest problem with it is, for example, I have both Payet and Sakho. Chances are West Ham won't score against City. If I wasn't transferring out Sakho this week id have to play one. Same will happen with Swansea depending on fixtures.

They will concede eventually and I think West Ham will do it. If so, Payet and Sahko should be involved. But I take your point. I just think form over fixtures and Payet is always good for a goal. Same with Gomis/Ayew.

Matter of opinion I guess. I've no strong confidence in it.

Easy Rod

I've one free transfer - Pedro to Silva or Coutinho?

Benimar

Begovic/McCarthy
Kolorov/Darmian/Gomez/Martin/Ward
Silva/Pedro/Mahrez/Payet/Westwood
Aguero/Benteke/Gomis

1FT 0.6 ITB

Anything obvious here? Thinking of holding Pedro and maybe replacing Ward in case Gomez gets dropped (forcing me to play Martin at the moment)

Easy Rod wrote: »

If those are the only two then Silva by miles. Better options than Coutinho for less though. I'd take Shaqiri, Mane, Ayew or maybe even Chadli over him for less money.

Who's the best attacking minded defender from Watford? Nyom?

I'm not sure if I want Cedric, Naughton or Reid from West Ham so thinking about bringing in Nyom for Shaw for now and then changing Huth for someone next week.

What's your reservation on Naughton as a matter of interest? Pretty sure that's who I'm going with.

Pete Moss

Who to start this week, Depay or Payet?

Depay has done nothing to convince me that he's worth keeping longterm, but I don't want to go -4 on him this week, in saying that, he must be due something in the Premier League soon! Whereas, Payet had a great game on Mon, but is up against City who lost midweek so may be looking to bounce back. West Ham have been impressive hitting big teams on the counter so far, and Payet is the man on their set pieces.

I think I'm going to go with him too. 3 home games in the next 4 and potentially a season keeper.

He can get nyom for cheaper a guaranteed starter and gives him more flexibility to improve his attack if need be I'd imagine.

Has to be Depay IMO in spite of what's happened up to now. West Ham will be doing well to score 1 this weekend and don't have much chance of a clean sheet point.

Jose confirmed Hazard is still number 1 peno taker .

True. Plus I'm fairly invested with City, having three of their players in my team at the moment.

Depay's going in.

I didn't realise he had three home in the next four. That changes things. Might go with him and then Nyom next week. That said, they haven't kept one in three games now and only have one in five this season.

I'll be going with Nyom and one of Naughton, Reid or Cedric. Just hadn't decided which yet.

Swansea are 15/8 for a clean sheet. Watford 23/10 (according to Paddy Power).

Definitely Nyom. He's been one of our most impressive signings. He's played for Granada in La Liga before. But he's definitely the most attacking minded and will have a good few bursts forward and balls into a box each game.

To add to that, Watford are deploying a 4-2-3-1 which gives the back four a lot of protection. They won't concede many goals this season. Probably won't score many either, as shown by their domination of Swansea last week but only winning 1-0!

Behrami is out for the next three games, so Ben Watson will more than likely slot into his position as a DM. Be interesting to see if we're as solid with Watson, but he's come on as a sub in most games and hasn't looked out of place or Watford's shape hasn't been lost.

Pete Moss

Aguero is 100% fit according to Pelligrini. Kompany's out though.

SantryRed

Ok, I've done Cabaye to Sinclair. I've 2.6m in the bank.

I have another transfer, and currently have Gomis, should I go Gomis or Benteke? Can't decide

Artfu1Dodger

I think Williams is a better bet than Naughton. I think he has more potential for Bps if they keep a clean sheet.
