Tadic out for 6.9m mid. Who do I pick?

Fab, Willian, Albrighton, Ritchie, Shelvey?...

Sorry to ask again...but getting close to deadline, won't be up early

Any thoughts? Wouldn't mind a punt, as Tadic is boring and I could WC soon so whoever I buy I can replace soon.

Ritchie, or Richarlison if ya haven’t got him already.

In isolation I'd go for Fabregas as I think Willian could lose out if Batshuayi gets the nod.

Long is fit and predicted to start according to FFS.

I'd keep Eriksen for Bournemouth at home anyway.

This IB has been a pain with 2 FTs.

Looking at fixtures for 4/5 weeks it seems prudent to get some of them in.

What would be your preference....
Otamendi and Hazard or Alonso and Sterling?

Otamendi and Hazard. Pep could still rotate Sterling with Aguero back earlier than expected.

ElTel

Hazard in now.
ML rival has Otamendi so I might go with Stones instead.
Will sleep on it.

Not happy with my midfield.
D.Silva Mkhitaryan (not in form and will cost me £0.1m overnight) Ritchie (doubtful) Carroll (TPT) Chalobah (injured)

Wanted to ditch Mikhi but can't find any replacement. Can't afford Spurs mid (well I can but I'm keeping some cash for Aguero return). Was tempted by Sterling as a short term punt but not so sure now...

I have taken a punt on sterling - even if he only gets on for the last 20, with City in free-scoring form, he could easily grab a goal or an assist in the latter stages of a game. For a few weeks it is worth a short term punt imo (don't blame me )

Would imagine Alonso's clean sheets will lessen with Kante out.
I'm thinking of Alexis/Brady to Sane/ Eriksen for -4 and benching Morata

Alonso or Azpi?

Yeah. I'm actually debating whether it's better to take a short term punt on Sterling/Sané in place of Mkhitaryan or a longer term transfer in Jones to Otamendi.
Have a little less than an hour to find an answer...

Oh and I also have Lacazette who failed me big time last GW.

Alonso in the long run in my opinion

People going for Sané and Sterling are pretty fúcking brave. Fair play.

They're nailed on rotation risks, and there are a lot of games coming.

I've a feeling you'll likely be transferring them out soon.

I got the two of them in for the next 2 games, will shift one on then after that. Languishing around the million mark for weeks now so felt like trying something different.

Got Otamendi for jones in the end. Form & fixtures. I'd rather have taken Cédric out but with 3 à priori favourable home games in the next 4 I feel I must let Saints a last chance to repay my trust (hopefully they'll copy Arsenal who had conceded 8 goals in the first 3 games before collecting 4 CS in a row.

Lacazette & Mkhi stay. They're on an "ejection seat" situation and owe their staying mainly to myself not seeing obvious replacements worth a -4 over the next 2 GWs max. I'll be watching the leicester game & Vardy under the couch though...

Done!

Firmino to Vardy
Mkhi to Sane
Ritchie to Sterling.

Looking forward to 0-0 now in the City match.

14 points better off with Vardy still to play. Best transfers I've done in a while.
