    There are now a LOT of options for 7 and under

    I'd have Arnie, Rambo, Lingard and Richarlison ahead of him

    Arnie and Rambo are always broken

    So you'd pick Walcott ahead of these based on this criteria :P?

    You might not have a choice Quaner is injured and Robertson may not be picked, Liverpool at home maybe shading it.

    Multiple newspapers now reporting man city are ready to walk away from Sanchez deal due to wages/agent fees



    And now

    Mourinho on winter transfer window last month: 'There are players and situations that sometimes you have the chance to do and you shouldn't lose the chance.' #mufc #Sanchez

    Dont think Elliott will start tbh

    But with a GK its not an issue, its not as if he is going to come on for 20 mins, so start Elliot as he has the better fixture on paper and if he doesnt play no harm as Adrian auto subs in.

    Also thinking this now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    I'm thinking Elliott. Swansea are the lowest league scorers with just 13 goals. Newcastle have secured back to back league clean sheets (Lascalles seems to make a big difference). Masuaku is my 1st sub so may end with West Ham def anyway

    Just watch now as Darlow gets injured with 20 minutes to go.





    :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Well fck. I thought Elliot was out and transferred in Darlow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Well fck. I thought Elliot was out and transferred in Darlow.

    Darlow has kept 2 clean sheets in a row
    He will start imo
    But is one mistake away from being dropped again


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    I think I'm going to hold off on lingard for now and bank my transfer. If Sanchez ends up at utd its one more player for lingard to compete with and despite being on a great run I still think he will be the fall guy for a bad result.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,022 ✭✭✭jamesbere


    Elliot
    Jones otamendi christensen schindler
    D silva sterling lingard salah Milivojevic
    Kane (C)
    Foster Rooney hemed mee

    Undecided if to change Milivojevic to son for - 4 but otherwise content enough with this


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Looking through my league at transfers and team values and most are the same around the 102\103 max
    And then I get to the guy in 7th who is 4 points behind me
    He doesn't watch TV or price rises but loves a hit and nearly always makes the transfers extremely early usually the same weekend
    His team value is 105.4!!!!!!!! 33 transfers
    That's a massive advantage over me . 3 ml
    That's a raheem sterling instead of a Ricky
    Or a firmino instead of a Wilson or an aguero instead of a firmino !!!!!
    He could put a serious WC team together and he won't even know why :(


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 8,576 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wilberto


    How much profit can he actually realise though for a wildcard? The value of his Sterling could be 10.7, but he might only be able to trade him in at 10.3 for example. It's still impressive, but the "tax" system is there prevent him from building this monster squad for the second half of the season.

    I am struggling to see where all the value is built up compared to everyone else though
    Team
    Adrian - never went up in price
    Jones - could have maybe .6 ( same as for me )
    Christensen - maybe .3 ?
    Gomez - .2 ?
    Dunk .1?
    Mee .4 ( .3 for my team )

    It’s probably his midfield I guess salah lingard son Arnie sterling
    He defo had lingard early and possibly salah and sterling but so did lots of others in my league
    Kane firmino DCL

    I suppose it all adds up but I was suprised

    I normally try and make early transfers at the start of the season. Looking at form and value.
    It worked for me last season but not this one (mainly due to stupid decisions)
    I am at 103.9m this season.
    But the fella leading one of my mini-leagues is in the top 2000 at the time of writing and a team value of 105.7.
    https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/entry/1099/history

    Basically a real shrewdy at picking the value players.

    His team looks great for the next few weeks the b@stard!

    I am starting to come around to the logic of ignoring prices and just getting the players you think are good value for thier price (unless that .1 of a drop or a rise is absolutely crucial)

    Then if you get the 'value' players in regardless of price the team bank should increase over time.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Chrome

    and this other Chrome Gagatron application tells you were you are in relation to other players

    Don't know about firefox.
    Have not used it for years.

    Is Tomkins the most nailed defender for 4.3 or less?

    Lots of places reporting Alexis to United is very likely now as they have blown City out of the water financially.

    If that does happen, Lingard will have been a very short lived option for most of us.

    Sanchez would be a superb option at United, but £11.8m is just far too expensive given the wealth of options elsewhere IMO.

    That said, you'd imagine that this is just his agent leaking stuff to get him the City move for as much money as possible.

    I'm not sure I'd consider either of them nailed, unless I'm missing something. Ward at Palace and Johnson at Stoke are both first choice AFAIK. Both due back from injury soon

    Kelly is playing centre back
    Johnson hasn’t been first choice this season either
    They have been playing diouf a lot right wingback until recently
