DGW 34 Transfer Thread

Who do I play? Isak, Toney, Trippier or Billing*?

*It's not going to be Billing

Jota not pictured in training today btw

FH and looking at:

Ederson

TAA, Robbo, Shaw, Dunk

Salah, Fernandes, Rashford, March, Bowen

Haaland.

Going 4-5-1 due to the Jota doubt. Dunk over Estupinan as Pervis has been poor recently. Bowen is my ‘mad’ pick, and I feel KDB May sit out a game.

Any suggestions?

Stones has 2 goals in last 2 games, playing oop and getting forward. I like the Bruno pick, i wanted him, but just couldn't see a reason not to got KdB, granted your on FH so not relevant, but you would expect him to start 2 of the next 3 games, and next GW is v Leeds, so for that reason I was happy to gamble on him. I'd prefer Mitoma over March.

Watching the last game or two of Liverpool, VVD has been getting close to score a header or two from corners, so i'd have him over Robbo - Tsimakes could also get some minutes - let's not forget he did start against Chelsea where they kept a CS, where as VVD should be nailed.

In case someone doesn't play, do you have at least one decent back up sub?

All good points. I think City will be rotation central for one game, so not keen on any outfield player bar Haaland. I’ve looked at VVD and I can see your point, it’s one I’ll sleep on. Same with March v Mitoma.

I’ll have Coufal and Ferguson on the bench, not great but better than nothing.

I was on a good rise through the ranks the last few weeks, until Thursday, and it's completely thrown me.

I'm half tempted to just pull a mad -8. Go attack the DGW and try rise back that way.

FT - Chilwell -> Trent

Then I can't really decide between the -4 & -8.

Grealish -> Foden seems very sideways but Foden has a much higher ceiling and I think Grealish's FPL effective days could be behind him, while being important on the grass for Man City. I think Foden is gonna play a lot of the PL games coming up against Leeds, Everton etc so this would be a long term move. Mahrez will be rested in the PL so he will be fresh for CL IMO.

But then I also need Rashford in, so do I do him instead of Foden as he has more guaranteed minutes and/or form.

Or do I sell Maddison, just after he starts to show form, before he plays Everton & Fulham? Maybe Maddison -> Foden is a 35 move instead.

But I'm also tempted to bring in one of Jota/Darwin for Watkins as Watkins fixtures turn now and Nunez/Darwin have a DGW, with a home fixture coming out the end of it. Liverpool are scoring goals. Jota has the starts, and goals, but is due a rest. Darwin is due a start and was very effective against both Spurs & Fulham away from home getting 3 returns in around 125 mins.

You can pick up cheap playing players - I think a wolves defender who is 3.8m started last GW. Lindalof is 4.1m and should play both games. Dunno what cheapest mid is but Pierira is 4.4m and will play both games

mom stokers - two Brighton lads are 4.6m - pick one and also have greenwood

Is Martial a perma-trap or a potential season changing differential?

Last call on FH coming down to:

Isak + Coufal, or

Martial + Cresswell

Martial is a trap everyday of the week IMO.

Last minute dilemma, start Zouma over Martinelli?

I would be playing Martinelli - his form is through the roof - they are at home they will want a reaction and it’s chelsea.

that’s not to say I wouldn’t be playing Zouma - but I’m guessing your fixed on the other 9 players

Just done a last minute switch of captain from Haaland to Salah. That midweek game against Fulham after Fulham have played City.....

Ya I just said feck it. Want to try and attack the GW overall and captaining Salah in a DGW is not exactly a bad thing. It's just such a differential with Haaland also having a DGW.

The Haaland minutes thing has to go well for me to pay off. And Salah scoring too! I'm expecting 2 Haaland returns, hopefully it's capped at that.

Might main rival who I was 65 points behind, and now 32 points ahead of put TC on Haaland, now I don't know what i want from him haha, I was sure he would played the WC, but instead did a -4 and went with TC

So soceuk was the wildy pick for the DGW
