BGW/DGW25 Transfer Thread

I've got a tentative 10 players atm, including Bueno!

Likely gonna do a -4 of: Burn -> Tarkowski + KdB -> Salah

Will wait and see how the week goes first though, but those are the pretty obvious moves to make

Just made my transfers as I have a busy week coming up.

KDB - Salah

Aurier - Tarkowski for a -4

Sa (x2)

Bueno (x2) - Kilman (x2)- Tarkowski (x2)- Ream

Saka (x2) - Salah (x2) - Martinelli (x2)

Darwin (x2), Nketiah (x2), EBH

Bench of non players.

By trippling up on Wolves defence, I'm absolutely asking for trouble. They've had 6 clean sheets out of 24, so I'm not particularly hopeful! There was no one else that I liked the look of. I'm keeping an eye on Gakpo, and may offload Martinelli for him. Hopefully last weekends goal has unblocked something for Martinelli.

Have 9 this week but that includes Patterson. Definitely getting rid of Almiron and Shaw and keeping Rashford and Trippier. Will likely keep Mitoma also as not much value to be had at that price range.

Plan is Shaw to Gomez and Almiron to someone like JWP, don't like anyone from Everton/Wolves midfield. Will think about KDB to Salah for -4 then also

I've decided to do it as it suits my team and free hitting in a blank week with no doubles is overrated anyway. I dont want to sell the likes of Kane, Bruno, Rashford, my Newcastle defenders or Brighton players. Want to use my fts to focus on GW26/27/28. I also don't feel like I have the optimal three Arsenal. Getting the right 3 Liverpool players for the week could be huge if they go big but I'm also not convinced I want them long term. BGW28 will be manageable - Arsenal, Newcastle, Chelsea definitely have a fixture and more fixtures will be added. I don't see the appeal then really.

I'm at real risk of being eliminated from the Monthly LMS league this week, but I don't know whether to stick (make my single free transfer and field a barebones XI) or twist (take a few hits to bring in extra DW players).

Just a quick straw poll then - how many DWers will you be able to field this week, both before and after intended transfers? I have four as it stands, and would definitely bring in one more at least.

Have 6 potential double game week players after bringing in two with my free transfers. No subs as all of my bench have a blank game week.

Hello Free Hit

Darwin and Gakpo start tonight.

it would be a brave call bringing in a Liverpool defender . Fragile as f...

Yep I think I’m steering clear of Pool defenders , currently considering:

Bruno to Gakpo & Stones to Tarkowski

Liverpool fans speculating that Nunez who was playing well and subbed, maybe because still feeling effect of shoulder injury. something else to worry about

I already got TAA in so regretting that, been atrocious.

I was thinking Salah too but I've tracked him for the past 15 minutes in this game and he seems to have only had the ball twice.

Where are you hearing that? I’m watching game and there isn’t a mention of it. It was a double sub to bring on fresh legs by the looks of it, nothing else. FWIW, Firmino and Jota did nothing to warrant a start when they came on.

Speculation on a Liverpool thread as the only possible reason he would have been subbed when playing well and Liverpool needing goals.

Just a possible one to keep an eye on. No need to panic yet!

After the DGW, Liverpool have one good fixture (bou) out of the next five, including a likely blank fixture in 28. On that basis, I've talked myself out of doubling up on them, let alone tripling!
