Yeah CM would be the one I favour from the Stoke midfield but the price differences between the three will give us options.

I've OG Sanchez and Coutinho on the chopping block.
I've 2 FTs like yourself. Have ruled nothing out yet wrt one two or three transfers.

I don't know how to break it you but I don't think coutinho is coming back.

Woodburn now on Watchlist.

Oh right. :pac: I'm left with the same amount to replace Arnie and the only one who is really jumping out at me is Shaqiri. Ramsey would be a good option but with the arrival of Mkhi he might be moved back into the double pivot.

That’s been his position all season so the arrival of Mkhi won’t change anything.

Lads Arnie replacements what are we looking at. Had Willian pencilled in before his knock. Think about Tadic & Ward-Prouse as short-term options?

Can you afford an upgrade to Mkhitaryan? I wouldn't be going with a Southampton attacker at all.

Do you have Shaqiri/Choupo-Moting? You could downgrade to one of them and upgrade elsewhere with the funds gained.

I have Choupo. Don't really want to take a hit to swap him out

Depending on city lineup in fa cup I'm strongly strongly considering Kane to kun Arnie to Miki
Never mind just seen arsenal's fixtures for 27 and 28
Jesus i wish there was a decent option to upgrade DCl to and just move back to 343
I'm .2 short of Arnie to 4.3 and DCL to vardy
This may be no harm !

Chicharito the only other one jumping out at me and it may happen!
This along with Arnie to albrighton to afford it is probably going to be my move
I'll have to go without aguero as I think the time to get him was last week with jesus and champions league looming

SlickRic

I'm waiting until after the FA Cup.

Far too many variables in terms of lineups and possible injuries. And prices aren't really fluctuating yet. so there's not much pressure to make early transfers.

bantee

Thinking Lingard & Vert to Miki & Bauer for a -4. Seem like madness or am I better off to bank?

km79

There's a flu bug making its way through the #wba squad. McClean, Rodriguez, Foster, Hegazi and McAuley all ill and doubts for Saturday's game


Aaaaannnnndddddd now I’m back to aguero

Wouldnt nessecarily let that put me off, North London Derby in Wembley there will be loads of goals guaranteed, defenders from Arsenal are a no go with the two fixtures in 27/28, attackers with Arsenal aren't really fixture dependent, they dont really change their approach no matte who they play.

extra gravy

0.1 short of Arnie and Firmino to Aguero and Shaqiri. Of course.

alchemist33

Probably Lanzini to Sane, cup games willing.

km79

There is a bit of a plan becoming together .........it goes along the line of Arnie to mcarthur (can go a little higher but what's the point!) And DCL to chicharito -4
That allows almost enough in the bank for Ricky to martial or pogba for hudd at home. Mee will go for Simpson . Leaving enough for Mariappa to be upgraded the week after .
And most importantly nobody else around me will have chicharito or pogab/martial maybe with good reason)

Now I won't have aguero but that bed has been made
I can afford one price drop or rise I think so hope to make it to Sunday but DCL is hovering .......

km79

And I'm back
With an alternative to the above

If one was to take a 1 week punt on a midfielder for 7.2 or less who would it be ......... Willian the obvious one but won't be fit
Fabregas home to Bournemouth?
Choupo mouting home to watford - already have Shaq?
Ramsey away to swansea?

May I be so bold as to suggest you roll your transfer.
You've a solid 4-4-2 with two good captain choices.

Punting this week suggests your committing to WCing next GW (which will be a short planning window) and I don't think It's a good moment even for good planners with the free-hit chip left.

If you can wait until GW27 starts (Feb 10th) at least, you'd get to see 5th round FA Cup results and how the blanks and DGWs fill out.

Chumbawumba or Shaquri?

Leaning toward Chimbawumba for Arnie replacement.

Allen worth considering to free up funds imo

Cantona's Collars

The line that sums up my season so far is.

I get knocked down but I get up again.

Chumbawumba allows me the cash freedom I need but I will observe Allen closely.

Lad who moved above has as always made his transfer really early
3 of them
Team value is now more than 3 ml more than mine
Not been punished once with early transfers
And when I say early I mean the sat/Sunday night of previous gameweeks
Doesn’t even watch prices
He will have a lovely suprise when he plays his wildcard and he won’t even know why

dahat

A Mousaka sized problem now as well, could be an easy fix with Simpson though.

Arnie to Stoke mid
Mousaka to Simpson.

Cash saved for possible Sanchez move.

Leaves me with no Aguero this week unless I go to - 8 which isn't ideal tbh.

Same but can’t have them all
So unless Kane gets suspended or injured I won’t have aguero

I could just leave Mousaka rot till the following week, Firmino to Aguero would complete the - 4.

Had hoped to bank with a plan to get Sanchez next but Masuaku has screwed that. Just did him to Bauer.
Was too risky this week as other defs are Gomez, Vert, Kenny & Hunemeir(non playing)

km79

Aguero 95% towards a rise
Can ye please wait till tomorrow !

Was thinking I would have to ship out Robertson now Moreno is back but after tonight I think he might get another game or two yet...

If common sense prevails Moreno will be shipped back to Spain in the next few days.

Head is completely busted trying to find a replacement for Arnie and I’ve less than an hour to do it.

Yeah. That’s the simple one alright because I’d need to raise funds for Mkhi which would mean a further -4 and would probably mean buying and playing Dummet.

That 0.1 is a killer. I’d have 4.2 instead of the 4.3 I’d need for Simpson.

Or maybe price predictions might be out and give me another 24 hours before Arnie drops.

Don’t think I’ve got a 50-50 price rise/fall correct all season. It’s cost me quite a few -4’s.

km79

He won't drop tonight imo
Price drops been way off

Currently have Masuaku, Arnie and RLC on my bench which means I now have Niasse, Zeegelaar (dropped today under new manager) and Martina in my first 11.

Could easily have only 8 playing this GW but could be 9 if Martina starts.

I’m on a -4 which will easily be -12 to shift Arnie and Masuaku.

I don’t wanna WC cause I’m happy with the main men -

DDG
Jones, Alonso,
Sterling, Mane, Mahrez
Aguero, Kane

Is anybody else in such a mess ?

Should I WC ?

Klinkhammer

I quite fancy Rodriguez on his performance tonight and his last few in the league. At 5.5 he's a bargain.

No way. I think you need to step away. Consider nothing else this week and play Zee and Niasse with a hit next week perhaps.

How often would you foresee yourself playing this cheap defender? If it's not very often then Dummett might be OK. He played very well in one of Newcastles games I saw recently.

Could be a good option after they play Man City

Decision made.

Arnie our for Shaq and hopefully one of Niasse or Zeegelaar play too.

Job done.

Thanks for input.

Edit - I’d bet money that neither Niasse or Zeegeaar start but I’ll take the 6 points from Niasse when he comes on with 20 minutes to go.

I had him pencilled in for GW 28.

I'm an Everton fan and I expect Niasse to start on Wednesday. Tosun needs some bedding in time.

Likewise. May get him in next gw though depending how my squad is shaping up for the gw.
