    And he may be gone for son next week
    For whatever reason he has been playing much deeper and returns have been poor
    Time to be brave

    I'm actually considering captaining him this week myself

    Was thinking of Son/Greenwood to Martial/Jiminez but think I'll hold Son for now

    With Salah out I can do Greenwood/Salah to PEA/Tielemans. Gives me triple Leicster which I'm not crazy about though...

    With their upcoming fixtures and form, 3 x Leicester is not a bad thing.

    Contemplating Robertson to Soy and Mount to Mane for -4

    The Alternative is just Sterling or KDB to Mane

    You think so?
    Robertson is injured and Mount is not performing, I already have Abraham and Tomori too, so it might be Chelsea overkill going forward.

    A goal and 2 assists in last 6 games, what do you expect/want from a sub 7m midfield player? He is also the 2nd highest points scorer in the Chelsea team.

    In terms of future games and value, I see more value in having mount than Tomori.

    Sure, but I want to get Mane in for their Run. Tomori is just part of a cheap defence and can be benched.
    My only options are to get Mane drop KDB, Sterling, Mount or Tielemans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,089 ✭✭✭Pete_Cavan


    Was going to get a Liverpool player but with Salah and Robbo out I think I'll sit tight for now and enjoy having a rare two FTs next GW.

    But you are selling Robertson for a hit who has the same run ?
    He may not even be out his weekend and if he is he will be back next week

    No idea why anyone still has a 12 ml sterling in their squad tbh .................you will EVENTUALLY get the big score but probably uncaptained and have already him way too long imo
    Look at his returns ........
    Sterling to mane . Enjoy the points . Spend the excess next week.
    Don’t look back or go back

    Taylor is now 4.2 and should be nailed in what is a generally solid burnley defence.

    Pulled the trigger on Pieters to Taylor myself.

    In a team that is free scoring & a player in his team who is .6m more significantly outscoring him,,, it’s frustrating too own & see

    Vardy to McGoldrick


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,592 ✭✭✭patmac


    Vardy to McGoldrick

    Good move, surprised no-one else in the whole wide world thought of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,256 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Vardy to McGoldrick

    I see what you are doing and I like it ;)
    Mane to Danny drinkwater for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,194 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    No transfers for me this week.

    But I am half thinking of playing Williams for Man United. I have a feeling that that Sheff Utd - Man Utd game could be a 0-0 and he could start. He started the last game, due to injury & suspension, and was decent by all accounts. It's just a matter of him starting this weekend, as he has seems to be getting a few appearances lately, and from the bench too.

    Soyuncu, Lundstram, TAA, Williams, Rico. Which 3 to play? I'm debating dropping Mount and playing TAA, Lundstram, Soy & Williams.

    If you've been watching the full games, you'll see that he has been agonizingly close to scoring and getting assists in the games he hasn't scored well in.

    I'm happy to keep for now.

    I have been watching the full games & ive flagged my concerns a few games back.

    Been agonisingly close consistently is not down to bad luck.

    And my point is, there is a player on his team who is on significantly better form, is arguably a significantly better player & in FPL terms is now significantly outscoring him having adjusted to English football.

    Mount out Pulisic In


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,450 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Had PVA/Sterling to TAA/Son (for -4) in my mind for a few days but think I'll hold it till next week.

    Can play Aurier at the back, and fancy Sterling to put a Vardy-esque "I'm pissed off" run together after his Gomez incident, that Chelsea defence concedes

    Took an early -8 to avoid getting priced out of Vardy/Maddison and co. and get rid of some deadwood (Yarmo, Otamendi etc.)

    But have Salah & Robertson yellow flagged now :-/

    Could stick (McGinn & Ake to come off the bench for them if they dont play) or hit the WC button negate the -8 and get TAA & Mane in.

    Heart says prob the right time to WC... head on the other hand is wrecked!

    Any suggestions?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,128 ✭✭✭NabyLadistheman


    Would Sterling & Connolly ----> Dilva/7.6 MF & Auba be worth it. Currently have doubts over Robbo, Lascales & Connolly


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 98 ✭✭Charles Leclerc


    Would Aguero to Auba be mental? Have a strong feeling Aguero will be benched tomorrow while Auba is at home to Southampton.

    I've two free transfers and cannot see another move I want to make.

    bring in Gazzinga for your 2nd choice keeper. to use up the FT

    I cannot see Aguero being benched if fit.

    Number of games against other Top 5 in past 5 years - 50 (Pool, Arsenal, United Chelsea, Spurs)
    Number of times benched - 1 - versus Man United when coming back from a knee injury.

    Consistently doesn't play Everton. So New Years Day he might get a day off.

    Saka to Ricki for 1 week only punt! Have funds ITB for it.

    Come one Ricki!

    I have
    Gazzinga,
    Brandon williams, jaamat, chillwell,
    Mane, de byrune, wilson, mcginn,
    Vardy, kane, auba

    An 11 million value striker at home to Soton you have to captain him. Not the cleanest logic but that’s the way it is.

    Agreed
    But don’t watch it
    Just check for his points after !
    It’s torture with him
    Even when he does get a goal or even two he is not really involved
    The rage and frustration builds
    Better not to watch him as an owner and especially captainer

    I agree unless you have Vardy. I have both and it’s difficult for me to say no to Vardy’s form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,256 ✭✭✭✭km79


    After this weeks transfer I’ll have enough itb for Madison or martial to Alli if spurs show form
    Or
    Vardy to kane if I feel like I hate my life

    Or a defender for Fredricks
    In fact if I cheapen him down I won’t be far off martial to son

    Martial won’t be staying long for me is the moral of this tale

    I never get to see the 3pm games, just usually keep an eye on the GW thread here but fingers crossed!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Ayoze in for Mount


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Ninthlife


    C Wilson out and Kane in

    Hoping Kane bags a few goals before Jose converts him to a left back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,665 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Think I'll bank. Have money to upgrade Cantwell but want to wait see how Spurs look and have 2 fts for potential moves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,337 ✭✭✭nullObjects


    Banking and will make sure to watch the Spurs game.
    Would be good to have Spurs defenders that aren't prone to rotation.

    Utd play Spurs in a couple of weeks too, will assume Jose will get them well fired up for that

    If they need to be fired up for that then there are bigger problems than we even know about

    Upon reflection spurs are still a wait and see for a few weeks
    The problems with eriksen and numerous other high profile players winding down their contracts has not gone away
    There may be deeper seeded issues . That dressing room has been toxic for months even allowing for champ league final appearance

    I wouldn’t WC in that scenario.

    Get 11 players on the pitch this GW and reassess thereafter.

    Martial is a season keeper if he stays fit. Guaranteed.

    Spurs are a ‘go and get’ right now. Ok we don’t know who exactly will be flavour flav for Jose but Son and Kane can be brought in straight away.

    I’m ****ing furious I’ve no room for Son. I’ve VAJ upfront and can in no way justify breaking that up.

    My only other option would be KDB to Son and I’m very very tempted.

    Spurs will be awesome now under Mourinho. Gazzaniga and one of Son or Kane need to be brought in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,065 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno


    Which 4 defenders to play? Digne Robertson awb Soyuncu Lundstram? Have Lundstram benched at the minute

    I guarantee you he will be “injured “ before the new year

    This was the reason I was reluctant to go VAJ but did anyway
    Less flexibility . But still only 2 transfers to get Kane in if one was of that mind

    KDB to son is at the front of my mind IF spurs show form

    Of course I have yet to do my transfer this week which was to be Boly to TAA

    Maybe I should go for someone cheaper and keep the cash .......and have an extra player for GW 18.........ive planned on getting TAA in this week for nearly 7 weeks though (was supposed to be for fredericks)
    Honestly if Boly wasn’t injured and Fredricks/Tomori the defensive subs I’d bank it
    I’m not entirely convinced I want to spend 7.2 on a defender after downgrading them all
    Owning someone like PVA after this week would be so much more fun ....

    Sheff United are good defensively at home. 3 clean sheets in 6 home games. I think that game will be 0-0 or maybe even 1-0 home win.

    Thanks, think I'll sell awb for a cheaper option so I can upgrade cantwell next week..

    Wonder will Jose play aurier? Or is a wolves defender the best bet with 4 decent fixtures

    For what it's worth, I am playing Lundstram, TAA, Soyuncu & Williams. So a similar defence to you. Decided to play Williams instead of Mount. Could be a horrible decision yet but going with it.

    Gonna get in Gazzinga & Son or Kane next week I think. Gazzinga the cheapest way into Spurs clean sheets I think.

    Have Gazzinga already but I'd double up on spurs if aurier is guaranteed to start. The Jose bus will be parked up for a few months I reckon

    That is one seriously expensive defence in a year where value is easy to find .......
    Why do you have AWB still?
    Sell him for someone much cheaper
    Taylor, Rico,Mings , anyone basically cheaper !
    Digne might score well this week.play him. Then sell him
