Game Week 3 Transfer Thread

Bit reserved on him given he's played 92 mins over the two games and they have signed a very good midfielder in the meantime.

Thinking TAA/Archer to Patterson/Jesus but of a knee jerk for -4 but have to get him in, only other option is Wilson/ Rashford.

2 fts and nothing I really want to do for now. Bailey to Dasilva would free up 0.5 and catch the probable double rise. I'd like to wait and see Darwin in action though it'd probably take a -8 to restructure and get him in.

Any word on how bad Andreas' injury is?

Doesn't sound too bad...

Looks like the cheap option of 2 Leicester keepers is a bust!

Question is who to move onto?…..moved out Bailey for da Silva so I can afford Pope (5m)……or Sanchez (4.5)…are two of the highest scoring keepers so far who have sound defences ahead of them…..could do Ramsdale (5m) either…..or even Raya (4.5) who also has good fixtures!🙂

My back 5 has one each from Arsenal,Spurs,City,Liverpool and Forest and can’t afford likes of Ederson at 5.5m

Who would people be inclined to go for?

Was just considering bringing in Cornet for one of my midfielders. Probably needs another two weeks or so to see if he becomes a regular starter.

Thoughts?

Edit: and is anyone with only one or two Liverpool players looking at Elliot at £5m now Thiago is out for 4-6 weeks he should see lots of game time.

You probably get double rises out of him at his value level and he as long as he plays, that's more than you expect out of a 4.5m mid.

Have 2 FT and might just have to get Da Silva in to use one of those.

I had some semi-idea of switching Robbo to Nunez but that would involve a -4 and probably not worth it overall as it would be a midfield of Salah / Martinelli / 6.0 going forwards.

That might work out for you. Ward looked pretty shaky and I wouldn't be surprised if his place is under threat already.

I've sold Bailey for JDS.

Any Son owners out there starting to think the money might be better invested elsewhere??

I know if I get rid he'll go on a record breaking scoring spree 🙄

Yea KdB looked good yesterday and easy swap - didn’t like that Conte took Son off when needing a goal

Expect Son to find his shooting boots at some stage but with Ricky there could be some sort of rotation risk.

I am thinking KdB straight swap.

Didn't like what I saw today, but Son is Son and can punish.

On the other hand Kevin is Kevina so it isn't like I am replacing Son with some mediocre player.

Have a Bailey problem here as well and missed the Dasilva price rise last night which is frustrating as the 0.5m would have come in handy somewhere else. . Right now Im thinking a straight swap for Jannsen instead.

Did anyone see how Mount played today, did he have much involvement around the box? He could drop in price tonight which would then block off a move to Foden

I don't own Grealish but he was in the majority of my drafts, so have kept an eye on him.

Grealish was involved in one of the Man City goals against West Ham, but his involvement was very deep inside his own half. Played his role in the Pep system that day, kept the width, involved in ball retention etc.

Foden got the G + A againt Bournemouth, but didn't really play to that Pep system and the failure to square the ball to Haaland for the easy tap in was probably the primary driver behind the half time sub.

I've a feeling that Grealish will start the next game again. But I'm unsure of whether it's alongside Foden or instead of him. I suspect that ball retention may be more important against Newcastle than Mahrez's directness against Bournemouth.

I don't think he's an 8m player, Chelsea don't score as many goals as City/Liverpool so he's not getting as many chances, Also look at Diaz tonight, - he had goal disallowed and hit the cross bar in GW1, he's in a team that we create a lot of chances, granted he might be a rotation risk, but thinking back to last season Mount had one worldie of a game and got like 24 points - other than that was he consistently good to be worth 8m?

I'd go Walker if you don't already have 3 City.

Nailed for the next few games and a steal at 5.0 - wish I went him over Grealish.

He should do you until the next couple weeks til first good opportunity to WC.

I think that Maddison is worth 8m - 12 goals and 11 assists last season - he isn’t going to be rotated and will want to try as much as he can to get into the England wc squad - goal and assist already this season.
