Sammy is my 4.3m bench fodder

FHFC · 30-01-2015 1:48pm

Hull have fee agreed for Senegal striker Dame N'Doye.

Swansea expected to sign Jack Cork* from Southampton.

Cork is 4.3, wonder what his gametime prospects at Swans will be.

* The actual Jack Cork this time, not his older brother Jackson Cork the washed up striker

Just asked the resident Swansea supporter here in work. He reckons he won't be good for points but will play every game in a Leon-Britton type role (whatever that is but I presume defensive mid).

Just playing is good enough for me anyway. He's my 4.3 wildcard mid.

I think I'll still stick with Lucas, I think he's pretty nailed on and more chance of the odd clean sheet point than Cork or Shola Ameobi.

My bugbear with Lucas is that he wastes a Liverpool spot if for some reason I would want Sterling, Studge, and a defender (say a DGW). I don't see myself wanting three other Newcastle players; plus the only time I'd plan to play my 4.3m mid is GW27 when Lucas has Man City. Ameobi's game time is a worry though.

Gabriel (ARS) DEF 5.5
Bielik (ARS) MID 4.5
McManaman (WBA) MID 5.0
Ameobi (CRY) FWD 4.5

Britton had the highest pass completion rate in Europe a few seasons ago, he basically sits infront of the centre backs making lots of short backwards/sideway passes.

Can never go wrong with Cork

Only problem is you need a bottle opener! Screw caps are the way to go!

Cuadrado deal agreed according to SSN. 8-9M in FPL I imagine

Yet another midfielder we have to worry about! At least with Schurrle we knew he wasn't going to get starts. Seems strange for them to be about to turn a profit and take a player who rarely started and replace them with a player who (presumably) will be in with a shot of starting.

Mr.Prodston · 30-01-2015 6:14pm

I thought Cuadrado was magnificent in the World Cup for Columbia but lets see how he translates to the Premier League, at another club he could have been a great asset. Pricing is vital here I guess.

Willian needs competition. though why defenders aren't top of their shopping list is a mystery

Lemlin · 30-01-2015 6:23pm

I can see him replacing Willian. He's never quite shone like Hazard and Oscar have in that three behind Costa. He doesn't score or assist enough.

manual_man · 30-01-2015 6:29pm

Willian is a workhorse, but with not too much attacking end product. Willian will still see game time, but more likely against the bigger teams where Jose likes to keep it tight

Saints fan myself, gutted he didn't sign the new contract, thought he was a shoe in to be the new captain last summer after the fire sale, bit worried now if Scheniderlein leaves, only Davies, Wayanama, Reed and Alderweirld as options this season.

Cork was unlucky with injuries this season and think he would have got a fair bit of gametime only for it, so should be a good signing for Swansea. Played a good bit the last 2 seasons.

At 4.3- ideal 5th midfielder if he gets his 90 mins, has been on my watch list the last while when he was out injured.

Mr.Prodston · 31-01-2015 3:32pm

Callum McManaman has my attention today. He could be a great Pulis player.

Shedite27 · 31-01-2015 10:09pm

How long before Zouma gets consideration? 4.6 defender for Chelsea, looked solid today. Cahill's been rough this season.

Western Pomise · 31-01-2015 11:59pm

Am seriously considerin Zouma for my WC...worst case scenario he gets dropped and you swop him out....Cahill meant to have had a row with Mourinho .

considering doubling up with terry
only problem is the league cup final...... and also having 2 Chelsea spots tied up
. serious value though

CSF · 01-02-2015 1:51pm

Willian is one of the more understated Chelsea players in non-FPL terms and will defo eat into Cuadrado's playing time. Wouldn't want him at anything over 7.0 (which he won't be) and not until after Chelsea's blank GW

shineon23 · 01-02-2015 7:17pm

With Bertrand's suspension;

Matt Targett 3.9, left back,
cheap entry into Southamptom defence for next few games.

.3 cheaper than Yoshida who's in for Alderweireld at the moment

AdMMM · 02-02-2015 12:29pm

With Jack Cork's move to Swansea, he's available for 4.3. I know George Boyd has his fans (I'm definitely one of the early groupies) but there's a nice .2 saving to be had!

FHFC · 02-02-2015 1:02pm

Liverpool still meant to be after Ings, but reports he has signed a pre contract with Moyes at Real Sociedad!

Edit: The Sociedad bit confirmed as false....

FHFC · 02-02-2015 1:06pm

Also, and more reliably, Huth to Leicester confirmed.

FHFC · 02-02-2015 3:21pm

Baird could be on the way out of the Hawthorns...not looking like getting back in the team anyhow!!

Bit of an odd one if you ask me. He'd been playing well I thought, and more suited to the position than Lescott
