    Goal was to fit in the big 4 - Alonso, Sanchez, Salah and Kane

    Fabianski - Elliott
    Alonso - Jones - Simpson - Ward - Hunnemier
    Salah - Sterling - Sanchez - Walcott - Ramsey
    Kane - Ayew - Wilson

    Idea being to rotate Simpson/Ward and Wilson/Ayew (mainly Wilson).

    Would have liked another premium forward, but there's nobody reliable under Vardy and who knows how Mahrez leaving will impact that

    Checking in.

    What does a wildcard team look like these days?
    Any way of fitting Alonso/Salah/Sanchez/Kane into the same team?

    Yes you can have them - and even Aguero and Sterling*


    *does depend on your TV

    Ya, fairly easy to have
    Alonso,
    Salah, Sanchez, Sterling
    Kane, Aguero

    The only problem is that you're going to be looking at a lot of 4.5 ish players with a couple of 5.0 ish players to fill the other 9 gaps. Can easily be done.

    Upgrading TPT to Hazard might be an issue though.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,637 ✭✭✭✭machiavellianme


    Cost me a cool 106.
    Tempted to drop Alonso and Holgate for Jones and Monreal as its slightly more balanced.

    I have no idea why my TV is so so bad this year !
    102 or so
    Even more "casual " players in my league have a million or 2 more
    It's make such a difference for WC
    And they won't even know why :(

    Sane over sterling is prob .6 of the problem. My TV is poor aswell.

    My best attempt at a WC team is this 442:

    Ryan
    Jones - Monreal - Bauer - Dunk
    Sanchez - D.Silva - Choupo - Salah
    Kane - Aguerro

    [Coleman - Rosenior - King - Quaner]

    Transfer value is a mess and would mean a bench of non-playing fodder


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


    Andy king could be moving to Swansea on loan
    4.2 ml starting mdifielder .......he has decent goal threat too


  • Registered Users Posts: 487 ✭✭stuba


    This week couldn't have went worse. Wildcarded, now sitting on

    De Gea Coleman

    Duffy Jones Simpson Martina Robertson

    Salah Sterling Lingard Walcott Shaquiri

    Kane Vardy Firmino

    Anyone care to rate it.

    My team is a mess. Have to WC this week but really really don’t want to.

    I know I’ll regret it within minutes/hours but it’s gonna happen anyway.

    Hope this loan goes through.


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


    The new TPT?

    He has a goal threat so no !

    I'm probably going to end up with a Team containing Sanchez kane and kun
    Alonso again when I own him a disappointment
    He would have been going in 2 weeks anyway to get Kane back so 'll save myself a few transfers

    Big decisions to be made.

    I currently own DDG, Jones, Alonso and Kun.

    Thinking of selling them all.

    The league is definitely now over.

    This will be a head wreck.

    Anyone got a link to yer mans google doc for the fixture thingy ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,586 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    I hope King goes to Swansea, I signed him around GW 12 on my wc and has done **** all for me, would help me hold off my wc if he was to move

    Fplstats being down tonight mid WC sums it all up
    Least enjoyable season ever for me

    King to Swansea confirmed

    In he comes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,651 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Courtois
    Otamendi Dummett Kenny Mee Ogbonna
    Pogba Mkhi Salah Sterling Shaq
    Kane Firmino Depoitre

    Is this lot worth wildcarding? Going nowhere and don't know whether to keep trudging along or try something different

    It’s gas.

    I’m taking it as a sign and I’m just gonna take my usual weekly -4 or -8.

    Gonna have some big big calls to make tonight
    Kane looked excellent last night despite not scoring so don’t know if I want to go another week without him .
    City now 15 pts ahead ........not long now before major rotation kicks in .
    Aguero could be gone for me again.
    Sanchez is coming in for 2 games then probably out again .
    Alonso .............this is the big one . I’ll probably sell him

    And that’s before I look at blanks

    My head is busted.

    I’m close to just putting in players I like owning and working from that
    It would have worked last night !
    And I’m stuck

    So my team is a mess, thought I'd go until later but its just awful

    So I'm set (kinda) on
    Pickford
    Jones - Chiwell
    Sterling-Salah-King
    Kane-Firmino

    I'm leaning towards
    Fab (I have him for 4.5m)
    Shawcross (worth the extra over Bauer)-Bavies-Francis
    Ramsey-Martial
    Giroud

    I'm looking for someone to talk me out of Giroud, Martial, Ramsey and Bavies. Is Walcott a better option than Ramsey?
    I've always liked having Ramsey, hes in my top 5 of favourite FF players ever

    I could swap
    Firmino & Giroud
    to Aguero & Ayew

    Also could swap
    Bavies & Francis
    to Mawson & Yoshida
    Does anyone know why Yoshida didn't start last nite?
    Martina is also an option

    Is Karius a better option than Pickford?
