GW8 transfers

Father Hernandez

Want to get Robertson out as with City coming up and his price, he's not worth it right now IMO.

Also have Ings injury.

Fancy Chelsea to hockey Sheffield United this weekend.

Could do Robertson > Chilwell, and sub Soucek in for Ings - no hit
Robertson & Ings out > Chilwell and Werner in - -4
Robertson & Ings out > Zouma in and Vardy in - -4
Or Ings out > someone? but no one at his cost interests me

Not sold on Werner and would rather Vardy. Would also prefer Chilwell to Zouma

Any thoughts?

I think Zouma will be rested on Saturday .. or I have a fear.

Plenty of centre back options, Zouma has played practically every minute this year. But who knows, maybe Frank has decided on his best Xi & is sticking with that

Vardy has Wolves and Liverpool in his next two not ideal fixtures, bar 2 games oolves have been keeping it fairly tight, also a decent amount of what Vardy has done this year is penalties.

Not sure if you are into short term punts but Laca and arsenal have 2 good games coming up

Although for the hurt of one or two games it might be worth keeping Robbo I know they havent been up to much fantasy wise but Liverpools fixtures are turning good after the city game and Robbo and Trent still have the best attacking underline stats of any defenders in the league

If you could select one Chelsea player at the moment (regardless of price) who would it be?

I've two FTs and am wary of overloading on Chelsea players yet but want to get at least one player into my team.
I'm thinking one at least but can't decide -

Ings -> Werner
Stephens -> Ziyech (funded by Ings sale)
Robbo -> Zouma/James

Looking at getting in Fabianski for Ryan & Bellerin for TAA

Fixture looks good for Both West Ham & Arsenal. Could flip it and get Leno & Cresswell...thoughts?

Thanks Mick, Vardy for me is future proof in a sense as I feel he can get a goal out of anywhere at anytime.

Laca would be a massive punt for me as FPL wise he always burned me, decent fixtures though.

I'll have another tinker around!

Liverpool have been cleaned this year with that high line.

Vardy is the best in the business v a high line.

Agree with this. I was thinking of transferring vardy in for Kane after spurs play west rim this gw. will keep son for their tough fixture run.

How many games have they played that crazy high line?

I’d say all season they’ve been playing a high line, when Van Dijk was in , every game !

Father Hernandez

For anyone thinking of getting Zouma, he's due to go up in price tonight.

IrishLad90

Contemplating a Son triple captain this weekend,
But withthe squads rotation with so many first team attacking players im a bit uneasy on who will play in the left wing...

Chesty08

Just done what I’d be set to do all week

Trent —-> Chilwell

Podence ——> Ziyech

Vardy loves a goal against Liverpool. I’m planning on doing Kane to Vardy in GW9. I’d be quite surprised if he doesn’t get something out of that game

ThunbergsAreGo

Ings to Bamford

Mahrez to Grealish

James doing well when he starts but I have a fear he will be rested this weekend. Played in midweek and Azpi rested. Alternatively he could play both again. Zouma probably a safer bet.

Shedite27

I really have nothing that I really want to do. Lots of ideas but think I'll hold the FT into the international window.

Guaita
TAA Robbo Lamptey
Zaha Salah Son Grealish Podence
DCL Kane

Cartman78

Hit taken!

Feels good even though it was probably unnecessary but fed up playing sensibly and floundering outside the top 1m OR.

Chilwell, Ziyech and Adams in for Saiss, Havertz and Jiminez

but1er

Robbo to Creswell

Jimi to Tammy

massive risk but if werner is droped ill be the one laughing. Leaves 4 million in the bank can upgrade pondence but have seem promise from him.

Kiith

I've Ings and Castagne out this week, with 1 transfer and 1.8 mill in the bank.

Thinking about taking the -4 hit, and swapping Ings for either Vardy, Wilson or Bamford. Not sure who yet, though probably Vardy.

Thinking of Castagne for Zouma or Chilwell as well.

Fitz*

Thinking of ditching both TAA & Saiss. Wolves fixtures are not the most attractive for CS over the next 8 fixtures overall, plus the doubts over Saiss, Mitchell & Lamptey playing make that a priority.

As for the Ings replacement, back to Werner? He probably has penalties again but there is also the risk he gets played out wide. Cilson has the form but DCL has the fixtures and form. I think I might go DCL.

Dubh Geannain

Money talks. I hadn't quite the funds in the end (0.1) for Zouma as I didn't want to swap out a guaranteed starter just yet for a less nailed on player. So decided to hold Robbo another week or so.

Bavies --> James
Ings --> Werner (0.2 swing last night so got lucky there)

I've got 2 guaranteed defensive starters at least and then one of James or Kilman to sub in for each other I hope.

Looking for a cheapish fourth midfielder. I know Wolves have a terrible run of fixtures but with 5.6m to spend the best value appears to be Podence or Neto. Who looks the best option between the two or is there anyone I seem to be overlooking?

Soucek? Decent fixtures for WH and he's been a decent threat from the games I've seen. McGinn might also be a good shout if you have no Villa attackers. Good fixtures after this GW

I think Armstrong for Soton is definitely worth a punt! Few nice fixtures and they score loads.

However I think overall you need to be shopping in the 6.5m plus bracket for value & downgrading striker / defender elsewhere

Feckin Hell Cresswell flagged now as well. That's 3 flagged defenders and my other 2 are Saiss and Reece James. :eek:

Forward Michail Antonio remains sidelined by a hamstring injury but Aaron Creswell should be available and Said Benrahma is in contention for his first start.

nothing to worry about

Lamptey is fit to play. Potter said it was just cramp when he came off the pitch the last day.

Moyes says he "thinks" Cresswell is good to play. Got him the yellow.

dsmythy

I joined the TAA to Chilwell gang. Say what you want it is nice to have been able to choose any defender in the league to replace him.

titan18

Went Pulisic to Ziyech and Saiss to Cresswrll for a -4.

I did and it worked thus week but I do expect rotation as well.
