    Surely you get Kilman or Nouri over Coady? Both a little cheaper.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,719 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Am I crazy to get Son in instead of Salah?



  • Registered Users Posts: 332 ✭✭trigger26




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,192 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Liverpool's DGW is not until GW26, this is GW24.

    As of now, I don't think Salah will start this GW and may not even play at all.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,719 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Yeah this is my thinking, a -4 this week and another next week would get him in when we have more info

  • Registered Users Posts: 332 ✭✭trigger26


    well aware of that but with short gameweeks you can plan ahead and save having to use fh, you can use bb or tc then


    taking -4 on short gw is a bit of a waste



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,699 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    yeah I think Klopp will prefer to rest him for this one game given he is off the back of three 120 minute games in about 8 days. !f Liverpool need a goal after 65 minutes he probably would come on, if they dont then theres a chance he sits the entire game out. Of course if we're wrong on that Salah buyers and owners could have a serious differential but I thought he looked tired and lacklustre in the final last night and is in need of a rest. He is back in the UK now as of about an hour ago so anything could happen.

    Ive 2 FTs this week for the purpose of getting Salah back in. Think I might just use one to sell Alonso and roll the other. Though I am tempted to replace either Dennis or Watkins with Edouard who has some form and 5 of his next 6 fixtures are decent. Watkins has done sod all for weeks now, he is getting chances but not putting them away.



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    I think I’m gonna bank the FT. Though there is plenty of moves to make, I think 2 FT’s going into GW25 will be more valuable.

    The break & recent Cup games have altered things so best to sit out & observe for next moves.

    The big issue is captain, my City assets be ideal but minutes are now unsure. Jota v Leicester or Son v Soton are also tempting.

    I run the risk of Dias not starting & have no defender bench cover either. So could make a move there.

    Team:

    Martinez (DDG)

    Dias TAA Robertson (Livra , Johnson)

    Sterling Foden Jota Son Bowen

    Antonio Dennis (King)


    Anyone any thoughts on captain & am I right to hold off on transfer?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,699 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Chesty I thought I saw somewhere that Livra is back from injury so you might have cover for Dias if 3-5-2 is what you are playing. I saw Citys clean sheet odds are 58% v Brentford so likely points there.

    Son at home to Soton would seem like the best captaincy option if you dont want to risk your captain not getting 90 minutes a la Foden or Sterling. Bowen has Watford at home, another option but I think Son has a higher ceiling especially now Kane is back to form, at least compared to Antonio. Im leaning towards captaining Kane myself over other options like Foden & Bowen.

    Looking at either Debruyne or mahrez



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,733 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    Might go Rudiger to Cancelo....it's about 17 weeks too late but hoping himself and Laporte will be solid for the next few games



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    That would be welcome news on Livra. It negates the need for a transfer there.

    Ye I do agree on Son but he hasn’t really been doing much all season.

    What about Jota? You look at the cup games & Jota has been scoring well. He looks sure to play 90 & I think Liverpool will be really focussed on not getting caught on the hop by Leicester agsin (like at Xmas)

    Its one ti ponder alright



  • Registered Users Posts: 573 ✭✭✭Buddy97mm




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


    Pretty sure Livra started the cup game for Southampton.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,788 ✭✭✭Benimar




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,749 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    I brought Bruno in and he’s yellow flagged lol. If I hear salah training tomorrow I will wildcard



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    Jorginho to Ramsey done. 2FTs next week with plenty itb to get Salah back in my side. Happy days



  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Alison Mysterious Deodorant


    Reguilon and Broja out

    Laporte and Edouard in

    -4

    Really happy with my squad now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,192 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Wanted to get Edouard in but I think selling Rudiger is taking precedence as he is an empty slot for the next 4ish GWs.

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,719 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Alonso/Gundogan to Laporte/Salah for -4



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,100 ✭✭✭whitelightrider


    Thinking Cancelo may be a decent option for captain. Salah did look tired and may not get a full game.



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


    I'll probably leave Salah and captain Kane. Alonso to Laporte/Digne will be my ft. Leaning towards Digne as he has nice fixtures and a game in GW30 Swore I'd never buy him again after the last time but maybe it can be a fresh start for both of us now that's he's left Everton!



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


    Boring one but gonna bring in Dalot. Not convinced he'll play 3 games in a week but he's cheap and better than Diop



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,440 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Think I'll bank. Have a good looking squad for this gameweek as it is. Lots of good underlying stats..... (lol)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,375 ✭✭✭Did you smash it


    Have 2 transfers and 2.8 million in the bank to dispose of greenwood. No one is jumping out, have salah, jota, Bowen and foden.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,465 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers




  • Registered Users Posts: 305 ✭✭The Guru 123


    Think I'd go Cornet there myself. Playing OOP and has lots of doubles



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,375 ✭✭✭Did you smash it


    i don’t like that palace’s next few matches are mostly away from home. Their away form is bad and were it not for the improbable win vs city away, they would be the worst away team in the entire league.

    I was looking at Buendia and Ramsey at Villa more than Coutinho. I think coutinho could be a trap. Maybe I need to look again. obviously by picking Ramsey I could upgrade other players into Kane or Son or KDB.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,375 ✭✭✭Did you smash it


    Yeah he’s a consideration. What put me off him he’s only played around half Burnley’s games and only past the 80 minute mark 4 times and the game vs Watford was his first 90 mins.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,192 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    While Crystal Palace do have an upcoming DGW, Gallagher doesn't have a DGW. He is ineligible for one to their games.

    Ugh just realised I dont have a keeper for this week now that Bachman is #2 behind Foster.

    Is it worth burning a FT (have 2) to get in De Gea or Ramsdale? My other keeper is Sanchez.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,058 ✭✭✭Brian201888


    I think Ramsdale and Sanchez alternate brilliantly for the rest of the season including alternating doubles so I'd say yes



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,192 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Not sure whether to go

    A: Trossard -> Son

    B: Antonio -> Edouard

    I'm leaning towards A at the moment. It would be part of a -4, which is also up for consideration.

    I was set on Rudiger -> Tierney but the DGW of Man Utd is maybe me lean towards Dalot instead perhaps. Can Man Utd be trusted for CS ( I have DDG) and can he be trusted for starts? Telles has COVID so that should make Shaw nailed for a week or two. The 2 blanks for Arsenal kind of makes the -4 riskier.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,733 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    Actually now moving away from the City double because Pep.

    Looking now at Digne or Dalot instead.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,136 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    So thinking over the following options.

    KDB Bruno or Salah in for Maddison!?

    Kevin for one week then to Bruno or Salah?

    Bruno in for Burnley then out for Salah after the double?

    One way or another Salah will be coming back ideally I would like to wait till the Liverpool double.

    I still have Ronaldo but unless he gets into some serious form im thinking of bringing in Kane for Spurs double which brings me to Son am I overlooking him?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,520 ✭✭✭Dubh Geannain


    One goalie is not playing this week and the other is away to City. Nice that I don't have to think much for this.


    Fernandez --> Ramsdale (DGW26)


    I'll look at the rest of my team later and whether I need to consider a -4. No Salah and no TAA with only 4.1 in the bank so I've some planning to do still.



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Still haven’t made any call on captain. Transfers will be banked for now.

    Id go Sterling if I knew he would play. I’m reluctant on Son because I think he won’t play 90.. Conte has a few options there now.

    Jota has been playing good & should still hold 90 minutes. I’m not going Trent cause Leicester will score.

    It’s now a toss up between Sterling & Jota.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,192 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Grealish was recorded worse for wear at the weekend so he will probably be in Pep's bad books for a few weeks again. Working backwards, that's one less option for City. Mahrez usually starts midweek games. So Mahrez RW, Foden LW & Sterling CF would be my guess for this GW.



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


    Good shout, I have Sanchez and a dud so upgrading dud to Ramsale for now. Gets multiple doubles next few weeks, and three more doubles to come from Arsenal

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,724 ✭✭✭eoghan104


    Thoughts on using BB with a bench of Ramsdale, King, Dalot and Coufal?

    Fixtures are good and I don't think I will get a week with doubles on the bench. Looks like all my players should start too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,136 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    KDB in for Maddison ill swap him out for either Salah or Bruno next week. If everything goes to plan I'll have Bruno for double next week and Salah for his double the following week and hopefully wont lose out on any points in between!



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Mahrez & Walker where also out with Grealish.

    Foden & Grealish where bought dropped earlier in the year.

    Jesus is also not ready according Pep -  "Soon, he [Jesus] will be ready. I spoke with him this morning and he feels good, but he is not perfect; a few niggles - muscular. We have to be careful."

    If we take it that Grealish & Jesus are out then Sterling should play?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,699 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Just a few hours to go and I still don't know what to do. Klopps comments on Salah have really thrown a spanner in the works-

    Asked specifically if Salah could be involved against Leicester, Klopp replied: “Yes, yes. Sadio no chance as he’s not even here, but Mo yes.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,077 ✭✭✭shmeee


    How would ye rate Dalot's chances of starting both DGW 25 games? Or next best option? Digne or a Wolves asset.

    Need to move on James and at least give me 4 defenders this GW to help with maybe Dias rest and looking ahead then to GW25 too. Other defender is Rudiger. Have Dias, TAA and Cancelo.

    *have 2 x FH's so will be using in 27 and 30 is the plan.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,077 ✭✭✭shmeee


    I'm starting Salah (held him) but arm band will be on Jota. Salah trained with team today.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,719 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Think Digne is a great option for next 5 weeks



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,077 ✭✭✭shmeee


    He is the one I'm leaning to now...

    Leeds, Newcastle, Watford and potential DGW then of Brighton and Leeds in 27.

    For anyone who may not know of the legend Ben Crellin (might be 1 or 2), here's his latest GW planner. Your new wallpaper!




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,192 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    No leaked Man Utd team yet.

    Making it harder to decide between Dalot & Tierney.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,699 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Did Alonso to Laporte and Dennis to Broja with 2 FTs to leave 3.9m itb and get Salah back in one move by selling either Foden or Jota. It means I can hang on to Kane as well as flexibility to get Edouard or Raphinha in next GW
