Gameweek 7 Transfer Thread

I didn't exactly stand by him for the last 2 GW's... my decision was made a while ago but other more pressing transfers came up. The only picture I wanted was that Payet didn't get injured today tbh.

If he scores 2 tomorrow, I'll consider it a gift from the FPL gods. As bad as Sunderland are, I would still prefer Payet at home to Norwich.

It isn't a decision I have to make as I have both, but I amn't 100% I'd agree with that. Sunderland look like being hammered in every game they play tbh. I could easily see United getting 3 or 4 in that game. I don't know what Depay's share of that might amount to but I like his chances.

Don't know whether to get rid of one of Ayew/Gomis or hang on to them for their back to back home games. May sell Muniesa instead now that his place is in doubt.

I don't think you should get rid of Ayew. He is on a 2 goal blank spell right now, but before the Newcastle game Payet was on the same. These are 2 guys that I see being regular enough point providers throughout the year. Possible seasonkeepers along with Mahrez and Kolarov assuming Clichy doesn't start to play football again.

Yeah I will. Morgan to cawson done. Realistically wouldn't have played ward until he's due back anyway, and Gomez may still end up at cb. Fletcher price drop doesn't bother me as he's probably there for the season. And sterling isn't an urgent transfer, although I think I may want KDB soon enough

Fletcher been in the 90's with over a week so hopefully he'll stay steady there. Unlucky not to score today as well

Rikand

Thinking another -4 this week.

Sanchez - Hazard
Silva - De Bruyne

De Bruyne looked a class player yesterday. And if hazard is scoring again now is the time to punt with what's coming up for them

Got in KDB myself and also have Hazard under serious consideration, he looked good at times yesterday.

Sanchez although playing well is not delivering at all for managers.

CSF

Think Sanchez has been given a bit of a free pass myself. Wasn't up to much yesterday, he's in my plans to leave in the near future.

dahat

Feels like we are waiting and waiting on him to deliver a decent score...

Sanchez to Hazard/Pedro is a real good move imo.

Pedro is probably the one I'm thinking of yeah unless Hazard starts to threaten with real goals.

In a way same could be said about Agüero.

Last year 3 big FPL stars (Sanchez, Agüero, Hazard) are completely underachieving this year!

I don't think Aguero has gotten a free pass though. I think it's been widely recognised that he's been a complete disappointment since the Chelsea game.

It's a judgement call for each manger on either of these. Sanchez is closer to the edge for me.

Aguero is far more lethal in Fpl terms than Sanchez and 1 missed haul from him could sende further into oblivion than my current rank of 1.5million.

I think thereare just more options in midfield too. If the likes of Benteke, Kane, Rooney etc were flying more people would be looking at Agueros spot.

Remind me to ask where you rank before listening to advice in future.

I'm doing horribly each week by my own standards, but still around 100,000 mark.
A bit of abit wanted, have 2 FTs, looking to ship gomez and possibly Pedro out, trying to figure out who I want in. Don't want to join the payet train either, don't see him holding up.

It's irrelevant to where someone ranks in terms of advice imo, do you take the advice of something who is top 10k this year, but whose history might show them never being in top million before?

OR rank of 1.5 million, I'll jog on.....

Fenson

I have 2 FTs & 0,5 in the bank.

Squad:

Butland, Ruddy
Kolarov, Azpi, Bellerin, Huth, Oxford
Ozil, Sinclair, Mahrez, Hazard, Chadli
Wilson, Aguero, Benteke

Really dont know what to do. Considering getting Myhill&Sakho for Ruddy&Huth. Wildcard still on, but I'm quite happy with the players I have. Hazard was sharp yesterday and I hope, he will get points in the next games. The same with Chadli, who is one of the best in Spurs (in matches I have watched!). Hope he get sth today. Ozil is only one to get rid of. However I will give him 'the last chance' against Leicester

Have any ideas? Would be appriciate!

600k in my case which is hardly likely to interest him either:o

I've a mate in my work league who's had Kompany captained every week and a defence worth 42m, I'll ask him what you should do RossieMan. He's in the top 30k.

No one controls your choices except you. No need to blame anyone got your fortune.

Dempsey

In my wild card I got rid of Yaya for Silva. I think this was a big mistake. Must mull over going back to Yaya or get De Bruyne.

I have Myhill but considering a WBA defender aswell and double down at home. Kolarov was another wilcardee but I'm thinking about shipping him already

CSF

I'm going into the top 100k I think today. Gimme a shout if you need a few tips Rossie

Nah seriously, don't be like that. We all help each other here and it is best to analyse points based on what you think after reading them rather than who made them.

FHFC

I have an irrational urge to get Diego Costa.

I know everything yous are going to say. But its still my gut move for next week.

Maybe theres some kind of support group.

Yeah you're right but I mostly wanted to point out that last year 3 stars are underachieving big time.

I agree. Though Sanchez last year around the same period and up to January when he got injured was absolutely must have.

FHFC nailed it though about the lack of great consistent options upfront which is not the case in midfield.

Was that direcetd to me?

If so. Most people here give advice based on argumented points. If you don't agree you're free to say so. But I don't recall many of your interventions here.

But if you really trust more people's rankings than opinions, you should know that 1) current rankings mean absolutely nothing, 2) a lot of posters here are consistent top 20k finishers. If it's still not up to your own standard, no one's forcing you to come down here reading the "FSA casuals" nonsense :pac:...

Ah here, last week we were taking this game too seriously and offending him by using the term casual. Now we're dismissed as not worth listening if were not ranked high enough.

I think refs will be keeping a very close eye on him after yesterdays antics. Honestly, he was like a cartoon villain. Or the bad guy in a Disney film about a plucky kids soccer team composed of various outcasts and losers.

I think it's a good move he isn't worth the price but you have to spend the money somewhere. None of the big hitters are performing so we all have money to burn. I've a strong front 8 and 3 million in the bank.

Sorry RossieMan but the first sentence in your last post reads terribly and you'll get jip 100 times out of 100 on here for that.

Don't let it turn you off, many of us wound up the locals when we started, me included.:o;)

Discipline wise I think that he's bound to be told to cool his jets a bit.

He's a risk but potentially high reward. His ceiling is higher than Pedro or Hazard in that hes capable of a hat trick if they do hammer somebody and if Chelsea keep playing like they did yesterday attack wise he'll get goals.

Also, i have to get rid of one of my three Swans with a tough fixture ahead and will be getting a chelsea player. And i want to keep Ayew so preferring Gomis to Costa over Ayew to Pedro/Haz, any of which I can afford.

To be fair, I think if you're ditching the usual reliables Hazard/Sanchez/Aguero to free up funds to change up your team, to go to someone in a similar price bracket who is less reliable generally and in no better form than these guys doesn't make much sense to me.

Can you fit Hazard, Sanchez and Aguero into your team as well as Costa? If not, I think you should be saving your big money signings for these guys first.

Paully D

I've £1m in the bank. No idea what I'll do at the moment. Probably O'Shea to anyone as things stand.

RossieMan

Wasn't picking anyone out, more just annoyed at myself for listening to advise I got last week and I'd have been better listening to myself. I appreciate all the options, really gives good debate and its a great place to get different ideas about what way to play.


Really don't mean to be irritating people, I apologise for that.
Any opinions and advice is more than welcome.

Getting him in is a good move but anyone doing must accept he may not start/play every game.

MarkSRFC21

May need to wc if bentekes injured. I don't think I missed any double risers last night. I need to decide tonight as martial will probably double rise. Hopefully Rodgers gives more detail after the game

GLaDOS

Want to get Pedro in ahead of Chelsea's trip to Newcastle.

Was planning on switching Sanchez but not sure with Silva a doubt.

Will also go Gomis -> Martial as well for a hit.

titan18

Gomis to Martial anyway. May take a hit to get rid of Gomez then.

Man United's 6 or so fixtures after Sunderland do not scream goals. I do not deem bringing one of their players in to be wise.

True, but chances are he's double rising this week, and if he scores against Sunderland, could easily be getting to 8.4/8.5 by the Arsenal game. I am more likely to get rid of Darmian though based on United's upcoming fixtures

Panthro

I've knee jerk reacted and brought in Martial for Benteke.
Give the lad a go I say!

I would want Mata if I get any. What an under the radar, steady source of points he's been

Necronomicon

Benteke to Martial is very tempting, but can't help but feel like it's rash. I hope there's some injury news on Tekkers in BR's interview.

Martial should be good for a double rise, for those on a wc, but I don't think he's a long term optioin just yet

CSF

Ziegler1988 wrote: »

Yeah Mata seems the guy to go for right now if you were going for anyone, but what is United's goal total from ARS (A) EVE (A) MANC (H) CP (A) WBA (H) WAT (A) LEI (A) WHU (H)

Those are extremely difficult fixtures assuming all these teams stay as good at not conceding goals as they've been so far (impossible to say what form will be like by GW14 but I'm looking at those fixtures and thinking I should be avoiding United players altogether.

the incredible pudding

Gomez to Dawson most likely.
