GW35 Transfers. Or, managing to field 11 players.

Defoe in for Martial.

Fielding 11.

I need every week to count now.

My only worry is that Sakho may not start. It depends how much rest Klopp wants to give players before Villareal.

He is in irresistible form. He has hit the woodwork at least 3 times over the DGW as well.

I've also just done Lukaku to Defoe. I now have Pelle and Defore and no Sturridge, Alli or Kane. :pac:

What night is the villereal game on?

Only time will tell re LFC.

Klopp could easily play Firminio up top in Europe which would mean Sturridge still gets gametime in the league or he could start Sturridge in Europe and then not a chance he'll get any league minutes.

I have Sturridge but won't do anything until I see who starts against Villareal. If Sturridge does start then Benteke will get minutes in the league.

I think Sturridge will start in Europe and lose league minutes. Klopp will be playing a second 11 while he is still in Europe.

Sooner or Later

Wrong thread

Worried about it all right. Will be watching Klopp's comments closely and monitor what happens v Newcastle. He's in the best form and fitness of the last 2 years and will want to play though. Tough call if you don't have him and considering buying though as he could easily score big vs Newcastle.

Id love to bring him in and definetly would if origi is fit. Its hard to know what will happen the fact its 5 days before EL and that he only played 35 mins last night is in his favour. However they really cant afford any more injuries in the front 6 as they are already down can, henderson and origi. It only leaves allen, lucas, milner, coutinho, firmino, llalana and sturridge. 7 players for 6 spots for the EL game.
Worst case scenario he doesnt start 35, if he starts away to villareal I really cant see him start against swansea in 36. Cant see him starting both games of the double in 37. Then in 38 if they make the final its 3 days after the last league game. I dont see him start that game either. The other side is maybe origis injury isnt that bad and that sturridge can do serious damage even with limited minutes.

Benteke close to returning also just to confuse it more

Loftus Cheek isn't a bad shout if he is guaranteed to start, not much else in that price range apart from the 3 Leicester midfielder boys, M'Villa or Hoolahan

Chelsea seem to be on a wild experimental phase with their season over. After that thumping against City I'd say the whole 11 who started could be swiped.

I agree and its fine if you currently own him . However if you dont own him its hard to bring someone in this particular week due to it being a skinny week if your not sure if they will start. Then you just look at the fixture and think potential hat trick.

this is the dilemna
and it's a -4 as well
or else defoe for free or Shane long as a one week punt as I'm not mad on defoes prospects before 37

Calvin

Don't think Benteke will get much time up front imo...more than likely Firmino up top for the league games and Sturridge for the semi-final. Don't quote me on this though

Absolutely agree. I have Sturridge so I'll see what happens but no way I'd be using a FT to bring him in for this weekend.

Sturridge in for Lukaku, it's bit of a risk but happy enough to take a gamble on him

Have both Milner and Firmino, will move one on for Alli for a hit. Presume Firmino will get more game time?

Same here, he replaces Martial with even 30mins he coild bag a goal. Proper fpl player when fit.

iroced

Can exactly do Bolasie + Mitrovic -> Alli + Kane for -4.

Payet -> Mahrez for an extra -4 is an option too.

Then may only have 2 defs (Delaney & Fosu Mensah blank + Gabriel rotation). Can't afford any Spurs def unless I downgrade Payet to Mahrez. That'd rise it up to -12 though.
I'm thinking maybe Gabriel/Delaney -> Simpson for -4. Worth it?

I'm terrified by Klopp & Pellegrini potential rotations. Could lead me to only field Sanchez, Bellerin and my Spurs/Leicester acquisitions...

gammygils

Vardy's suspension fecked me up!
Only have 10. Might have to take -4

SkySter

Taken a -8 for

Smalling > Rose
KDB > Alli
Lukaku > Aguero

Team back in shape and reasonably well setup for the next couple of game weeks.

If fit it's sanchez aguero and then sturridge as my top 3.

I'd do the Alli and Kane one. If you think Gabriel has lost his place for good get a Sunderland Def. You get a game this week and a dgw 37 out of him which should easily clear the -4. Your probably looking at a - 8 with payet to take him out and put him back in.

Pete Moss

Lads, is it worth taking a -8 this week on the back of a high-scoring GW34? I played my WC in GW33, and loaded up with DGW players, knowing that GW35 would bite me in the ass!

I need to get Kane and Alli, or possibly Mane, in my team, but to do so I have to chop some funds somewhere ( I was looking at Lukaku to Borini/Defoe/Long) which will result in a -8. It'd mean I'd have 11 to field, depending on who Klopp and Wenger field

Poor game week planning, I know! But, I just couldn't help the beautiful sight of having so many DGW players

Benimar

I had a poor DGW34. Even with BB I only scored 116 (-4). I'm also left with this mess:

Mignolet
Bellerin, Gabriel, Dawson, Sakho
Mahrez, Ozil, Milner
Aguero, Mitrovic

No game: Robles, Dann, Bolasie, Payet, Martial

I think a -4 for Bolasie and Martial to Alli and Kane (c) is a complete no-brainer, and gives me 12 players. However,given the likelyhood that Gabriel and Mitro won't start and the Liverpool lads could be rotated, is it worth another hit to replace Dann (no idea who with!)?

Really want/need to get Kane & Alli in asap……..will mean selling one of KDB or Sanchez and dumping AntonyMartial3PointsinDGWffs.

Had also considered getting rid of Firminio but Origi’s injury has changed his immediate prospects I reckon.

Will see how Arsenal and Sanchez(c) get on tonight – another meh performance will see Alexis getting the bullet

Well it looks like the end of the line for KDB for me I think - can someone please post something like "He'll probably more than likely definitely be rested against Stoke ahead of the Real Madrid game" to make my decision a bit easier

Can't shake the itch to sign Sturridge .........too risky to sell Payet so will mean selling smalling
For PVA

hufpc8w3adnk65

Ozil
Lukaku
Martial all out

Sanchez
Defoe
Kane all in!

caviardreams

Does anyone think gabriel might get back in the starting 11? Worth taking a -4 to get rid of him? I only have 10 others (hopefully) starting so nobody who can sub in.

John83

I'm in a bit of a mess as well.

Mignolet
Bellerin, Gabriel, Sakho
Mahrez, Ozil, Milner, KDB
Aguero, Mitrovic

Robles, Cresswell, Delaney, Payet, Rashford with no game.

My main problem is funds - 1.7 ITB.

I could do Mitrovic and Payet to Alli and Kane but I don't fancy getting rid of Payet with his double in 37. I'm thinking the best way to free up funds is to ditch KDB.

KDB > Alli
Mitrovic > Kane
Delaney > PVA

That's a -8. Would people recommend that sort of hit if I'm doing a lot of chasing in my main leagues?

Or I can just bank the transfer, avoid hits and hope that all my players start so I can field 10?

Quite similar to my 'mess' (See post 226 above)

I think Kane is too dangerous to do without this week, so given your lack of funds KDB probably has to go, unless you can transfer out a defender? who is ur 5th defender?

I'm still mulling a Dann to PVA transfer for a further -4, but haven't made a final call yet.

With my mess similar to your mess, I'm also going Bolasie/Martial to Kane/Alli for one hit. Sunderland have Arsenal at home so getting one of their defenders may not be the thing. The second hit I'm contemplating is Mitrovic to a southampton striker. They have poor fixtures after this week but I'll probably get Defoe in to this slot soon anyway.

Who knows. Wenger doesn't like to change CBs and Mertesacker just kept a cleansheet, but Defoe could run him ragged. If I had to guess, I'd say Mertesacker starts again

Cresswell is my fifth defender (fixed now). Again with his double in 37 I'm reluctant to get rid. He still couldn't fund Kane though. I'd still need a -8.

Are you thinking that it's Kane at all costs even if it means not fielding a full team?

A -4 could leave me with

Mignolet
Bellerin, Sakho
Mahrez, Ozil, Milner, Alli
Aguero, Kane

And hope that Gabriel and Mitrovic are involved in some way. Could actually use AOA?

smith def out means as least one transfer
.6 in the bank leaves me .1 shirt for PVA but can afford kaboul and the rest........a lot depends on who I want in for martial
I'm defo not keeping him double or not

- 1.7m in the bank that's tough.
Gabriel is not going to play is he, also have Coutinho who might get rested and already on -4. Have another 9.

You can't use AOA, you don't have a 5th midfielder to play this week.

At the moment I'm leaning towards limiting myself to a -4, which gives me the same 11 (+Dawson) as you.

I think Mitrovic will get game time but it might be a 1 pointer again. Not sure he warrants a -4 though, if I was taking a -4 I think I'd do the Delaney to PVA one, at least you are increasing the number of players with a game.

Yeah I think I'll limit myself to a -4 as well. After all the rotation last week we're probably due some luck this weekend. No Liverpool rotation, Gabriel to play and Kane/Alli to pay back the points hit.

I have no idea re Gabriel. I had planned him or Delaney out but figured Gabriel out gives me more flexibility if I want a second Arsenal attacker in GW38.

Unfortunately, can't afford PVA so would you get Kaboul?
-4 for a game against Arsenal that still need to secure a top4 finish and maybe even top3 (to avoid CL summer play-off) doesn't sound great though. While Leicester odds for a CS are probably high.

There will be, but I think it will be GW36, not this week. Can see 11 changes for the Swansea game, but just tinkering around the edges for Newcastle. I don't have him but I actually think Sturridge will play, I have a feeling Klopp will go with Firmino on thursday for workrate in an away game.

At a guess I think the team for Newcastle will be: Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno, Stewart, Milner, Allen, Lallana, Coutinho, Sturridge. Possibly Ojo for one of Lallana or Coutinho.

Then again, I didn't see last sundays team coming at all :P
