    Seems madness to be axing Utd assets before a home game against Forrest but here I am with Rashford on the block. 2FTs and looking at him to Mbuemo ... maybe upgrade my bench fodder to this Semenyo lad who seems a decent 4.5 option.

    Somebody out

    Somebody in

    Foden back in maybe….. City have an excellent run.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,450 ✭✭✭macraignil


    Gone with Salah and Mubama out with my two free transfers and brought in Mbeumo and Isak. Leaves me with 2.8mill in the bank to upgrade someone next week.



  • Registered Users Posts: 22,625 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    2 fts and lots of options. Want another look at Jackson today, Chelsea's run looks too good to miss out on. May ditch Rashford for Mbeumo/Mitoma to fund Pedro to Jackson.



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,575 ✭✭✭patmac


    Have Rashford and Bruno but United could haul against Forest also need rid of Wilson, so will check out Jackson today.



  • Registered Users Posts: 17,266 ✭✭✭✭gammygils


    Gonna give my United asses (not a typo) another week. I might just bank

    Also want to have a look at Jackson, but while I'm at it gonna try some more of Watkins. Watkins is who I currently have and that's a swap that would have to be done, if it is Jackson coming in.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,523 ✭✭✭caviardreams


    Gusto in possibly given James' injury - for shaw



  • Registered Users Posts: 22,625 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Think I'm going to limit my interest in Chelsea to just Chilwell until we see if they can actually score goals. Jackson looks lively alright but that doesn't get you points. Looks like he's prone to silly bookings too. I'd rather get Alvarez despite the Pep rotation risk.



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,926 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    Have 2 x FTs. Need word on this Maddison knock before deciding anything.



  • Registered Users Posts: 16,788 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    As good as he looks his problem is actually scoring goals.

    2 FT and a few potential fires to manage...

    Went with Salah and Gakpo...so one if not both are on the chopping block...Salah more to free up funds than anything else.

    Also have Bruno.... didn't feel right at the time and it feels worse now

    Kulu...had Spurs FOMO but need to figure out what Kulu is doing first before I make a decision



  • Registered Users Posts: 9,753 ✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    My team is a mess.

    Raya is my main keeper. Reece James, Stones and Baldock all injured

    McAllister -2, 3 game ban incoming. Salah and Enzo both missed penalties, Rashford needs to go.

    Had Pedro on bench last week and left points on bench. Started him this week and missed out on 11 points from wissa.

    Raya, Stones, James, Enzo, Rashford and McAllister. 6 out.

    Can't see any way out but an early wildcard which I haven't done in 5 or 6 years.



  • Registered Users Posts: 11,253 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Gakpo out.

    Jackson was always the transfer in but not so sure.

    Think I’ll chance it for Luton anyway with a long term look at Isak. Alvarez is tempting though - but does he start…

    May bank the other FT.

    Rashford, maybe even Fernandes on the chopping block. Regret not starting with Mbeumo.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,934 ✭✭✭AdpRo


    Pickford out


    Flekken / Areola / Sanchez in, actually anyone in over Pickford, can’t believe I picked him as my main keeper.



  • Registered Users Posts: 22,625 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Tbf I think most of us expected some sort of defensive improvement from Everton but they've picked up where they left off last season.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,675 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    2FT so will Salah to Maddison/Mbeumbo and upgrade Archer to Wissa/Isak which will give me cash in the bank for future transfers also. Although if Gabriel doesnt start again tonight all those plans might change!



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,654 ✭✭✭MacDanger


    Will probably take a -4 to get rid of Gakpo & MacAllister, maybe even a -8 to dump Tarkowski as well



  • Registered Users Posts: 9,397 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Still not overly critical of my team, Salah and Rashford have been slow starters but not sure I want to can them just yet. Highlights for the weekend for me were...

    Foden - looks like he might get the KDB role while he's injured, could have had a few assists Sat night in a tough fixture

    Sterling - absolutely electric against WH, looked back to prime Raz

    JWP - as expected, gonna be the main man for WH, a set piece specialist in a set piece team



  • Registered Users Posts: 15,696 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Gabriel has raced into the lead in the first transfer out race.

    Too expensive to be picking up 0 or 1 points.



  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Noel Magnificent Vandal


    Eze instead of Mitoma before the season started was a criminal decision.

    Is Gabriel to Saliba almost too obvious a move?

    Gakpo out for Alvarez also under consideration.

    And I may look at Tarkowski out for Inanimate Carbon Rod also



  • Registered Users Posts: 22,625 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Gabriel should start against Fulham now that Zinchenko is back fit. Having an Everton defender is probably the more urgent issue!



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,812 ✭✭✭bantee


    2 FTs so thinking Gabriel & Pedro to Henry & Nketiah, or else just the Gabriel transfer and roll the other. Too many transfer rumours and uncertainty around him, plus I still don't think he's nailed to start the next game.



  • Registered Users Posts: 9,397 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Gabriel to Saliba is a move to make long term, but you might be fine for a week with Tomiyasu suspended.

    Tarkowski to one of the cheap Chelsea defenders looks a decent move in the short term



  • Registered Users Posts: 11,253 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Done Gakpo to Jackson before price rises/drops.

    Have 1 more FT but I think I'll wait as I can bench Gabriel this week starting Chilwell, Colwill & Pervis.

    Rather the 2 transfers in GW4 to bring in potentially Foden, Mbeumo or Maddison. Tripper in for Gabriel GW5, hope he doesn't drop too much.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,675 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Might do Gabriel to Gusto, hard to ignore those Chelsea fixtures. Leaves me 1M to upgrade my 3rd striker or 5th MF


    Other option could be Salah to Maddison/Mbuemo and Gabriel to Chilwell



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,307 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers


    Have 2 FTs.

    Think Gabriel is ok for next week with Tomiyasu/Wilder out.

    Salah to Diaz, free up funds and bank the 2nd.

    Will assess Gabriel next week.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,627 ✭✭✭mobydopy


    Did Gabriel to Walker last night before the price rise.



  • Registered Users Posts: 9,397 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Happy enough to hold again this week, looks a big fixture swing after this week so will give Salah, Rashford etc another week before they go on the trade block.


    Probably move one of my fodder this week rather than burning a transfer, Kabore to Gusto the most likely with Chelseas fixtures, or else Muamba to Semenyo

    Fire after fire to put out. Chukwuemeka who was gonna slot in this GW for me is now out for 6 weeks.

    Add him to the list with Gabriel, Maddison (may miss weekend), Pedro and Osula. A -8 could be needed to sort out this mess.

    Price drops incoming got Gabriel also so might need to move now.
