    IM looking at Forster to ddg. Decent fixtures up to the wildcard and only 3 goals conceded against Chelsea city and arsenal.

    good about IMO and also being considered by myself
    it would also mean I have 3 united players so can't buy fellaini :D

    Have 2 free transfers this week Thinking of taking a 4 point hit and going

    Tadic, Clyne, Naismith out
    Di Maria, Yun, Kane in.

    Not full convinced on the Kane in for Naismith so Im going to wait and see whats the story with Naismiths injury.

    I also have Naismith, Fabregas and Costa on 4 yellows which is another factor.

    I'm considering Boyd or Wanyama, is there anyone else i'm potentially overlooking?

    Personally i think Boyd ticks all the boxes, he's pretty much guaranteed to play 90 mins every game and is dirt cheap for a 5th midfielder. Burnley are beginning to score goals, so he could play some part in them.

    He will save you cash that you may need elsewhere in your team, maybe not now - but in future

    Ameobi would also be a good shout - same price as Boyd but will probably play further forward, fairly sure he was registered as a striker last season on FF as well. Not sure about his game time though.

    Do you plan on sticking with 3 sot? Would have definitely waited until they player they could easily get injured. Switch (c) to Costa too early for more adventurous picks even if you are behind.

    Have had Cresswell for 3 game week's as a slight gamble as part of my wildcard. He's gone 1,9,1 in those games and im trying to decide if those returns are good enough for a defender worth 5.4 ?

    Im definitely shipping tadic out this week as planned, but if I also move Cresswell I can do something like this ::

    Cresswell -> Yun
    Tadic -> Hazard

    Some good games coming up for chelski and even though I already have fab, I think both will make good returns for the forseeable.

    This all feels right to me, but looking for opinions for/against. Have a "stronger" front 8 as I think it will be important during the busy December schedule.


    Team atm is ::

    Guzan - Jukopovic
    Baines - Dummett - Wisdom - Bertrand - Cresswell
    Siggy - Fabregas - Sanchez - Tadic - Downing
    Aguero - Pelle - Austin

    **** Hazard has gone to 10.1... I really should of moved on him last week!!

    Missing the .1 to upgrade Fab to Hazard!

    Getting rid of Forster... who are people replacing him with??

    Who has got a decent run of fixtures?

    If you've a bit of time to spare :P I'll link you to my GK analysis ;) => part 1 & part 2.


    To summarise what the stats "told" me (that was before this GW - but this GW results don't really change it, they actually mostly confirm it) here's what I wrote:
    In terms of upcoming fixtures 'til the Jan WC
    1. Man City, QPR and AV with favourable runs.
    2. Hull with a good one
    3. CP, WB, Newcastle & Everton with decent ones.
    Since Guzan’s doing better away than home, Hart and Green seem the 2 best options. Hart could be a great option from GW16 onwards. Green can be paired with CP’s Speroni. They rotate well and perform way better home than away. It may be too dear a pairing though depending on the amount of big guns you may have upfront.

    Pairing 2 GKs from Hull could be interesting too, especially from GW17 onwards. Though not the cheapest of options. They rotate perfectly with Burnley but since Hull GKs have performed better away than home a daring gamble could be to rotate them with WB but playing each keeper away confused.png...

    In the end, the popular Newcastle combo could well continue to work out decently rolleyes.pngtongue.png...

    If Pelle picks up his 5th yellow tomorrow, I'm doing straight swap for Bony. If he doesn't and Downing is out, I'm looking at Downing and Welbeck to Brady and Bony for a -4 (leaving me to rotate Boyd and Brady as my 4th mid.....). I could also downgrade Clyne to Collins or Wisdom to fund that transfer if Downing isn't serious.

    Some great suggestions, nice one.

    Boyd is at the top of the shopping list I reckon. Ameobi is also an interesting option. Shame Southampton have such a tough fixture list.

    I'm going to hang on for an official WH update on Downing. If he's fit I'll move to plan b. Forster for Guzan which will let me bring in Siggy for Moses, it will temporarily tie some cash up, but my options are limited.

    Pieters to Azpilicueta is what i think I'll do. Although I could upgrade Bertrand to baines.

    2.2m in the bank

    Ok so selling Welbeck but really torn between 2 options.
    Either Austin or Kane.
    What do people think? I'm favouring Austin at the minute.

    Had intended going Pelle to Austin but Bony very tempting. Think he could be more reliable and has 3 home in the next 4. It's all about judging whether Austin's streak will continue or will he get closer attention from defences and slow his returns.

    Bony a proven PL scorer, MOTD pointed out that he is the top scoring PL striker in 2014 so far with 17.

    Bony is tempting but im gonna stick with Berahino as my 3rd striker, i fancy him to find his goal-scoring form again with his next two games being at home.
    Did Forster to Green. Have 1ft left thinking about getting Jagielka he has good points for his price range.

    I'm going for Austin. He's guaranteed to start, is on pens and has decent fixtures. Spurs have Everton and Chelsea up next so that lessens Kane's appeal.

    2 FTs. 0.1 in the bank.

    Other than Forster to Krul, I can't see a transfer worth making at the minute. Any opinions folks?

    Ive got pretty much the exact same setup bar Downing instead of Sigurdsson and a few different subs.

    QPR have a decent fixtures over the Xmas run of games and you would have to imagine Charlie is going to be involved in a lot of the action they create whereas Southampton have a tough few fixtures over the same time. Newcastle's fixtures don't look too promising either for CS potential over the same period so moving Forster out for another keeper with similar fixtures doesn't make sense IMO.

    Not an urgent priority since I can bench Clyne for next week; I might need to get rid of Downing and Welbeck first. I'm surprised that Clyne and Berty are still seeing positive NTIs today; hooray for casuals :pac:

    I also have Forster and also not sure whether to sell him. They have 3 nasty ones after this, but two of them are at home, and the 3 are followed by Burnley.

    If I do sell, I see Fabianski as a good choice. Would be essentially a straight sway price-wise, but Fab has good fixtures.

    Or else Green. Also good fixtures, but I already have McCarthy so would be good to have 2 keepers from the same team. Would also bank be 0.7m

    Regarding Pelle, its a matter of taking the punt that his dry spell will continue. Risky as his shots stats are holding up, his conversion rate is down so you could say he's due goals, and as posted Man U and Arsenal are fond of conceding them. I'm probably gonna take the plunge and go for a fresh approach, despite having 1m profit on Pelle.

    I'm looking at going one of two ways.

    a) downgrade (price wise) Pelle to Austin and upgrade my defence with the Xmas schedule in mind. Possibly bringing in Terry and Hart.

    b) Downgrade Forster to an educated punt on Green in goals and keep with a strong front three of Bony, Aguero and Costa.

    I'm hoping that in either case I could get a Chelsea defender in there, but for option B it will probably have to be Azpil, and I'll have to hold off a couple of weeks.

    If I do go (B) I can always reverse it after Swans next 4 good fixtures and free up cash for defence upgrades before Xmas.

    Any thoughts? Could be fun!!!


    Currently
    Forster,
    Clyne, Chamber, Hutton, Duff, Dummet
    Sanchez, ADM, Hazard, Downing, Boyd,
    Aguero, Costa, Pelle

    Option A
    Green,
    Clyne (to Azpil in a couple of weeks), Chamber, Hutton, Duff, Dummet
    Sanchez, ADM, Hazard, Downing, Boyd,
    Aguero, Costa, Bony

    Option B
    Forster (probably to Hart in a couple of weeks),
    Terry, Chamber, Hutton, Duff, Dummet
    Sanchez, ADM, Hazard, Downing, Boyd,
    Aguero, Costa, Austin

    Longer term I think I'll be looking at whether ADM is worth it after these two home games for United. They are not the fountain of goals they are sometimes perceived to be. Upgrading Downing & ADM to two mid priced mids may be a better use of cash.

    Yeah, ADM is intesting. The next week or two might decide if I keep him.

    I was just looking, and I can switch ADM and Pelle out for Oscar and Costa. Interesting. Would probably hold off a week or two to do it though.

    I don't have either so not really an issue, but if I had southampton defneder and southampton attacker, Pelle out would be the priority. Much better options available at the moment up front. Same can't be siad for denfenders.

    That said, anyone with 2 soton defenders (or def + GK) that would be my priority

    I had planned to take Clyne or Forster out this week, but I've also got the infrequently playing Moore and Chester. Would most people prioritise the non-players?

    In which case it's Chester to Azpi.

    My main aim is to get in hazard but I'm reluctant to get rid of both tadic and pelle. I also intend to get rid of Clyne but not necessarily this week. Currently have 0.5 in the bank. Any option to do this looks like taking a -8.

    option 1- replacing clyne with yun, downing with hazard and pelle with austin.

    option 2- replacing clyne with yun, tadic with hazard and downing with jedinak/brunt/any other 5.5 midfielder.

    any other suggestions?


    Current team:
    krul (jakupovic)
    clyne chambers ntaylor (duff,moore)
    downing di maria sanchez tadic (cattermole)
    aguero costa pelle

    Liking the sound of Welbeck to Austin and Pelle to Bony. Swansea's next 6 look too good to miss. Austin looks set to rise tonight so might make that move even though I should probably avoid making any transfer until there's more news on Baines and Downing.
