Gw4 - transfer thread

Roonbox

Just had a moment of madness and sold Willian, Aguero and Carroll for Silva, Morata and Mooy (for a -8!!)

I think the question is how close will Kane get towards the 2nd drop. Looks like he will have dropped by weekend.

I don't think he'll get anywhere near a second drop. And I don't think he'll get his first till nearer the end of the GW.

When you get gareth barry in you only end up making 7 transfers all season. He is that good.

It was 14 he made in the end though right?

Not making any changes until after the transfer window shuts and see how many of my players get injured on international duty.

Yup.

One of the regular and fairly arrogant lads off there was posting stuff on his blog & twitter mis-interpreting the numbers and saying that rates of price changes hadn't actually changed since last season. So I couldn't resist taking the actual numbers to FFS although I haven't posted there for years.

Firmino in for aguero before his price rise last night.
If he gets injured on international duty so be it but I did all my transfers early last season and only got caught out by not waiting for team news once. In return I probably gained about 2.5 million. That difference got me Marcos Alonso instead of someone like Erik pieters.

Admittedly I was very fortunate to only get caught out once and may not get the same luck this season but I think an occasional -4 to reverse an early transfer is worth an extra 2milion or so in the bank for the second half of the season

Ye he ended up with 14 . He was 7 transfer guy for a long time a good 10 weeks with Gareth Barry regularly coming off his bench with unlikely assists and goals. He was top 100 in the world in and around gw 30 before falling off the cliff in the run in. Little does he know what an fsa cult hero he is.

Stopped myself Saturday night and Sunday from making this move with my FT only because I may need a defensive transfer as I have Danillo and Kola...

Well that's what I'm telling myself now. Truth is, I couldn't decide between Kun and Jesus.

Ive the exact money in the bank for kdb to Sanchez for free
If he moves to city I doubt I'll be able to resist

Is it a bit premature everyone getting rid of kdb.
I'll prob keep him for those reasons.
Same last year with Kane,
I held him, I don't agree with being too rash

I got rid last week after seeing where he was being asked to operate. Looks like it might be an ongoing role for the near future also :

"Dutch interview with French subs, but he said he now plays as a defending midfielder. We all could see that, but maybe this means it will be for a longer period.
"I haven't scored yet, but I'm playing as a defending midfielder. My role changed, but my games are good. I know what I bring to the team and what my role is. No one knows what I had to do. People think I play as an attacking midfielder, that's wrong. They see Kevin De Bruyne, attacking midfielder, so he has to score and give assists. But they don't look beyond that." "

Lovren out Van Dijk In
Gini out Lemar in

I have found that every time I have KDB in my team he doesn't really perform. Happened multiple times last season and possibly the 15/16 one.

So it's for that scientific reason I'm considering dropping him after the Int break.

Mad to consider Ramsey & Lukaku to Brady & Kane? Have 2FT and if it doesn't work out its easy to revert to Lukaku without taking hits to following week.

What's the logic? Lukaku is 3 up on Kane so far so what has changed your original decision?

I'm of a mind now to keep kdb this week and sell Gabbi for chicharito instead
Will cost me another .1 I'd imagine but I also think it will net me more points

Banking, then getting KDB dafuq outta my team after Liverpool game for Eriksen pending the former is playing deep again.

Eriksen had an unreal international break, 2 goals, 3 assists from 8 Denmark goals.

Anyone like to tempt me to pull the trigger now?

Cartman78

Tempted to get rid of KDB too....but might bank to give myself more wiggle room next week maybe.

Really want to get rid of Ake too at this stage....looking at getting a West Brom defender in but not certain who to plump for Nyom currently topping a very tentative list....

I just have this funny feeling kdb will score big this weekend
I mean if he gets any kind of attacking points you can almost certainly add 3 bonus on too
I'll still be selling him after that though !

Did Aguero to Morata before Moratas price rise. Que an Aguero hat trick now

Nerdlingr
