GW19 Transfers

If you had to pick this week, Aguero or Jesus?

I'm leaning towards Jesus. They tend to rotate and Aguero has started the last two, and there are a lot of rumours of him playing through injury. It's risky but if you can predict who'll start out of those two this week, I feel you'll be on to a winner.

I also feel like most other big strikers will go blank this week, so it could be worth the risk. Morata, Laca, Lukaku all have tough games.

I have Aguero, avoid at all cost. I say to myself I have to get rid but the thing is he has Bournemouth home next, he is destroying my team and every week I think what if I get rid of him and he goes nuts. Then I say I'm keeping him and then he blanks again or gets 1 point.
I've just talked myself into saying goodbye. Tempted by a -8 of Aguero/Gross/Richarlison to Austin/Sane/Sterling

If one had gotten the rub of the green with Rooney last night but wanted to get rid before his deep positioning regressed to the mean in terms of output, who would you consider replacing him cheaply with to facilitate a 2nd City attacker?

I’m looking at a 5.9 and under budget, and Murray and DCL are the options that have been running through my head.

The real mccoy 91

Trying to sort out the defence Moreno ward and chilwell will be making way for masuaku Jones and possibly klavan? Will be be straight out once matip returns? Not sure who else to get under 4.5 have Kenny and marriappa already

Quaner or Depoitre and save a bit of money. Huddersfield may have turned a corner and tasty fixtures

Lads if Aguero is rested tonight he's surely primed for captaincy at weekend?

Thinking of trying a transfer merry go round of with Kane and Aguero:

GW19 Aguero (BOU)
GW20 Kane (SOU)
GW21 Aguero (cpl)
GW22 Kane (DGW)

Have the money and have 14 other starters in my squad with no other major surgeries needed anywhere.

Would be classic Kane to score a brace away at Burnley and classic Pep nto rest Aguero tonight and then again on Saturday. But my gut is telling me Aguero is gonna score big against Bournemouth.

Morzadec

I definitely wouldnt bring Aggy in but if he's rested tonight and you have him I think you've got to strongly consider keeping him one more week for B'mouth at home.

He's capable of a haul still despite recent returns. A lot of defensive attention will be on the midfield lads.

Must be a dilemma though, as he really has had disappinting returns lately despite the starts.

If you downgrade Walker to Kenny/Masouka/Ogbonna, what does that leave in the bank?

I too have Hazard and I would consider downgrading him to free up funds if I didn't have to sort out D.Silva/Ward/Wilson first, his returns have been quite poor recently

Downgrading Walker will leave me with 2.2 ITB and still 1m short to get Pogba. This is where I'm stuck, -8 to move a defender on aswell

Would I be right in saying that one of Gomez/TAA tends to always play? Ward is going down in value tonight and need to downgrade to do other moves later in the week, when certain things are clearer. 

I own Gomez, so thought TAA at 4.2 might not be the worst move? Thoughts?

Good move and thinking of a similar move. Liverpool been keeping plenty of CS lately

Morzadec

EDIT: just read the post more closely, you're considering having both, sorry! Can see the logic, but you generally want options and 15 starting players, so not sure if I love this strategy of 1 guaranteed benched player every week.

Ginez is first choice. TAA comes in when Gomez needs a break.

You'll get a cheeky few points out of TAA over the winter break as the matches come thick and fast, but personally think he doesn't play enough to warrant transferring in.

I'd pay the extra for Gomez. Is up there contending for bonus often too and has had more of an attacking threat lately.

He's been very good lately, I watch almost all pool games and I'd be pretty sure that klopp sees this more as a first team / backup scenario than a rotation scenario.

Saying that, the games TAA does get will likely be targetted as the ones where we'll have least to do defensively, so basically home to the bottom 10, so a cleany is likely.

Still I would avoid TAA

My two cents on the situation as a pool fan anyway

mectavba

Ye cheers...nay push the boat out and get Ogbonna/Masauku instead....just was hoping to do sub 4.3 to finance other moves

patmac

Have enough to do Hazard /Richarlison to Sané/Sterling mmmm.

Masuaka is definitely a better move than double Liverpool right -back yeah. These types of moves sound good in theory, but then when you get a couple of injuries and rotations you're essentially left with a squad of 14, def not worth it!

Jesus Out - Lukaku in
Im keeping the faith on Morata for another week and I'm refusing to jump on the Rooney bandwagon

I don't think it's a bandwagon. He is a viable option for a forward and has been giving returns.

Wouldn't do it imo. Hazzy will score big soon imo, he's still playing very very well and Chelsea have 2 very juicy fixtures coming up, captain material for both I would think.

Richy will score consistently all season imo. Constantly involved. Playing in one of the few (only?) bottom 14 teams that I would say are an attacking team. Nailed on. It'll take a few more blanks for me to consider taking him out. If you could do it without losing a lot of money to bring him back in maybe consider it, but I think he'll come back strong at some point.

Easy Rod

Courtois and Mahrez out for Adrian & KDB for a -4.

Almost seems to make too much sense.

New plan
Morata rlc out
DLC sterling in

Midweek
Zaha to Pogba

Gw21 bench Kane and bank transfer
Gw 22
Adrian in along with spurs defender and or midfielder

I’m sure it will have gone pear shaped well before then !

And now I'm thinking kane to aguero and captain
No hit needed for that madness !

I'm keeping Kane. Namely because I'm too busy elsewhere.

Against the 7 other teams in the top 8 of the league right now Burnley haven't kept a single clean sheet.

For all the talk of their system's resiliency through injury the unsung hero will presumably be missing his first game this season. We all love Mee the main man at the club. Bonus point king.

But who's the better defender him or Tarkowski? Is he one they can't not have playing?

I'm actually only .4 off moratta to aguero
Could keep kane ...........
This is the complete opposite of my original plan

Need to know aguero is fully fit first though

Just remember, an Aguero is not just for Christmas. When the Newcastle game comes along and he is rested, will you still be willing to feed and walk him then?

He's a forward playing cm, his returns are pretty anomalous. He's not getting in many attacking positions, they've had a crazy glut of penalties, and one goal was a freak from his own half.

As a Rooney owner I completely agree, I 100% need off the wagon while I’m still a lucky man.

I'd be soaking up a couple of more price rises before ditching him, the question is who do you replace him with?

I’m planning to downgrade him so I can upgrade Zaha to De Bruyne.

Jamie Vardy won't score in 12 league games in a row, they said....

Yaya Toure won't score freak goals every week, get penalties a minute after Sergio is subbed and develop a knack of free kicks, they said....

Aaron Ramsey won't turn into Ronaldo for 4 months, they said....

Michu can't sustain continue to score goal after goal after goal, they said....

They'll regress to the mean, you said... :pac:

A full season too late. Sure I was right, eventually, but at what cost?

My sanity, you say? Well yeah okay that's true :P

Oh and my point you ask? I don't really remember....probably something to do with PVA!

Ok that Leicester with Jesus still on the pitch changes everything. If Aguero can still walk he starts at the weekend.

130 minutes for jesus .........
Now I never wish an injury on any player
But
A niggle to keep him out for 3 games would be ok wouldn't it ?

stuba

Can anyone give me a few suggestions for a striker under 6.4 that's fixtures alternate well with DCL?
