I brought in Kyle Naughton last week to bring my playing contingent to 11. I had planned to bring Rose in this week because of the DGW and Spurs' upcoming fixtures.

I'm trying to decide whether to ditch Naughton or PVA. PVA has the more attractive fixtures but Naughton gave me a nice return on Saturday.

What to do?

For sure wait until Tuesday at 1845 since we'll see if PvA starts or not. Assuming he starts, from now through GW32 I'd rather have PvA. Until the end of the season I'd rather have Naughton.

What's your front 3?

Sturridge, Aguero, Kane.

Sturridge and Costa interchangable, as can afford pretty much any forward I want over the next while.

Fail to prepare. Prepare to fail.

I am nothing if not thorough.

Also, wanted an excuse to give my patented "working out peoples transfers" system a whirl for the first time this season.

Main reason I switched my transfer from Silva to Eriksen is that I am now, after some weeks of messing and taking a couple of hits, fairly happy with my team. My back 5 and keeper are fine for a while barring injury, and same for my front three, so if I really do want to get Silva in as a second City attacker for bur, WBA, cpa from GW29 I will do so without needing a -4.

Also, Eriksens next 5 fixtures are quite good when you remember United are shíte...SWA, qpr, MUN, LEI, bur, AVL. Eriksen scored against Utd last year iirc.

Ye you were spot on eriksen and austin in for a -4. I don't think eriksen will start both games but I want him anyway so feel it's worth the -4 as I plan to keep him for the foreseeable future. He also has a game in gw 33.

Copper_pipe · 02-03-2015 1:44pm

I just can't tempt myself to take out an Arsenal midfielder playing against QPR for Eriken for a -4

AlanDeGenerous · 02-03-2015 1:45pm

All 5 of my defenders could conceivably keep a cleanie this weekend. Trying to decide who to start between the following:

PVA (Hull A) - Zouma (West Ham A) - Bellerin ( QPR A) - Dawson (Villa A) - Bertrand (Palace H)

Thoughts?

I'm currently in the same boat. Was thinking of doing Sanchez to Eriksen for a -4 but just don't think it's worth it.

I have the Harps cup 1/4 final this GW so if my rival ends up having Eriksen then it could end up a disaster.

Mint Sauce · 02-03-2015 2:18pm

ADM to Silva.

I've 4 of those plus Yun (on a DGW) instead of Dawson. Tough decision this week

How many different ways will we see "Eriksen" spelt on this thread this week.

Over the past two pages there's been:
- Eriksen
- Erikssen
- Erikson
- Ericsson

Brought in Rose for Wisdom

Now I need to decide on one to drop between
Giroud, Herrera or Walters.

Herrera currently is my thinking

mufcboy1999 · 02-03-2015 3:06pm

I don't look for much help or advice here in recent seasons, but I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I still have my WC left to use, I had every intention of using it this gw being a dgw.

The thing is I'm not sure if I need to or not, I've managed to ship out Adm and yaya for eriksen and Silva for a - 4 hit, that leaves me with eriksen and Kane for spurs cover. Ideally I'd like to swap Sanchez for carzola and Defoe for sturridge this gw too, that would require me to WC but am I making a mistake in downgrading Sanchez to carzola to fund the sturridge move ?

I've a gut feeling Sanchez will hit another bit of form soon, if I take him out now I'll lose loads, I got him at 10.6 million. I'm top of my money league by 40 odd points, only one other has sanchez due to his price, he's a serious differential but I feel sturridge esp v Burnley will also hit a bit of form.

Any help, appriciated, baiscally to WC now or later ?

So you took a -4 and then thought about using your WC? Seems a bit short sighted tbh. Having already taken the -4 I'd definitely save it. Making 2 transfers on a WC seems a bit of a waste.

Shedite27 · 02-03-2015 3:45pm

Just did ADM - Eriksen

One more FT, will get Toby in for Yun if Toby starts (we'll see before the GW closes). Otherwise will probably hold (Toby has Chelsea away next week), or get Walcott out for someone.

I think I'm going to have to do Cazorla or Sanchez to Eriksen for a -4 to protect myself. The annoying thing with Eriksen is that his goals are usually worth 7/8 points since he's so good at BPS.
I have absolutely no idea what side Wenger will put out on Wednesday. Rosicky and Walcott are both theoretically in line for a start which could mean Sanchez and Cazorla both miss out (I think at least one will).

Miguel_Sanchez · 02-03-2015 4:03pm

Green or Forster in goal?

Obviously Green has the DGW but I'd be surprised at a clean sheet against either Spurs or Arsenal so at the moment I'm siding with Forster.

I wanted to move for eriksen before his price rised, Silva to yaya also needed to be done imo for obvious reasons. The -4 hit was always going to be taken this gw In order to do the above, I was flirting with my WC for this GW as soon as the dgw was announced.

I can still WC to make the other 2 maybe even 3 changes, so there won't be a -4 then. I'm just looking for a bit of help on wheter now is the time to use it or not and is downgrading Sanchez and bringing in sturridge wise...

Arguably the WC could set me up from now till the end of the season, not many people still have it.

patmac · 02-03-2015 4:06pm

I'm going to be highly original and do Girroud/Di Maria to Austin/Eriksen time to gamble (or not)

Not really as if he played the WC the hit would be erased.

But yes, I agree that there will be much more profitable times and better (proper) DGWs to come to use your WC.

Your transfers so far are good moves IMO, and I don't think Sanchez to Caz is one to do just to facilitate Sturridge, especially if you think Sanchez will fire soon. It would be nice to have Eriksen and Silva and Studge for this week, but I doubt many will have all three plus Hazard, Aguero, Kane and Sanchez.

NabyLadistheman · 02-03-2015 4:17pm

I am considering Sanchez to Ozil, this will enable me to get Sturridge also. I'm not too hung up on price as I got sold and re-bought Sanchez previously.

Have many sold Sanchez? He's at 67% on FFFix ownership in the top 1000. How did he perform yesterday?

Welcome to my front line:

Silva Eriksen Hazard Sanchez
Sturridge Kane Aguero.

Incidentally, I have held Eriksen since the WC. Hopefully I'm wrong but if I didn't have him, I wouldn't be taking a -4 for him.

Hhhhmmmmmm good odds on a saints clean sheet BUT dare I start both Bertrand and alderweireld ! I've held the flute so long I need to start him as he won't be starting against Chelsea

Other defenders are Wolschield, Bellerin and PVA

jimmii · 02-03-2015 5:53pm

To combine the DGW odds you get around 15/8 for atleast 1 QPR cleansheet and 11/20 for at least 1 Spurs CS chance of 2 cleansheets for Spurs is just over 16% not going to get too carried away with their DGW!

I thought as I was typing that that you might have that front 7. Was not sure how you were affording it but you sold Terry if I recall? I couldn't afford it but have a fair bit tied up in Terry and Bertrand.

The ideal front 7 for this week imo, although I'd be slightly worried about Austin.

I wish you a fantastic week with the exception of Silva..

Back line is:
Foster
Bellerin Wolly Jones (PVA to sub in)

I don't think its that bad. I actually have enough banked to go Jones to Bertrand which I might do or could just go for Alder.

Cookie_Dough · 02-03-2015 6:37pm

I currently have Forster in goal, anyone think it would be worth it to transfer to Lloris for DGW?

Was also thinking of transferring Sanchez for Sterling. I don't know which would be best as I only have 1 FT and don't want to do both as I already took a -8 last week.

Any advice?

Forster with one game will probably keep one clean sheet more than Lloris in two.

Re Sterling, he's played alot of games in a short space of time. I'm not overly rushed to bring him in. Coutinho actually looks a good bet.

Liverpool supporter here in work reckons Sky did a good piece on how Liverpool's system is playing to Coutinho's strengths.

I would only do it if I planned to keep him for the rest of the season as otherwise you have to consider it two transfers and you only have 11 transfers left so that would be a lot to use on a GK you really only want for 1 week and his points expectancy for the week really wouldn't justify it.

Thanks for the reply. Ye I think it makes sense to hold off a bit on the WC, even though it is kind of starting to burn a hole in my pocket

.

Not having Austin is a small worry but he has 2 very tough games, hopefully he won't do too much damage.

SpaceCowb0y · 02-03-2015 7:50pm

Going to bring in Bentaleb for Ameobi and play him ahead of Downing this week! Also wondering if having Danny Sturridge up front is a waste of good funds he has had a pure cameo role up so far since returning from injury! Costa at least is guaranteed a game! Might even go Austin for the week that's in it then decide to who to get back in at the weekend?

Transfers are so valuable now it does seem like it would be a bit of a waste. If you have your WC still then that changes things. I have gone with 3 Spurs but have mine still waiting in the wings.

No I lost my WC at end of Jan as I never used it before deadline! Was thinking about bringing Eriksen in but I have Silva, Ozil, Sanchez, Hazard & Walters in MF already & don'think he's worth swapping anyone there. I have Kane & he's my only Spurs player.

Must look to see if any cheap QPR Midfielders I can swap Walters for.

dahat · 02-03-2015 8:03pm

Any hope of Sterling being rested v Burnley?
120 plus 90/in 4 days and Sturridge needing gametime.

I'm hoping he is the one to drop out for this game at least.

Meant your other WC hopefully you still have that then! Phillips is the pick of the QPR midfielders imo his numbers look very good.

My current DGW coverage is Kane.

Will I get in Eriksen? Rotation risk.

Will I get in Austin? Two difficult games and I don't think I want him long-term.

Will I get in a Spurs defender? Again, not sure if I want long term.

As far as I'm concerned, it's barely a DGW so I'm not going to invest heavily.

Spurs have conceded 19 in 12 away games (2 CS) and Arsenal have conceded 18 in 14 away (4 CS). QPR have scored 18 in 13 home games. I'd expect 2 QPR goals over the 2 games and be hopeful of 3, and Austin is involved in a lot of QPR's attacking returns (albeit they have dried up a bit more recently). I've taken a punt on him with my FT. Nothing else jumping out at me for the DGW apart from Kane obviously.

G1032 · 02-03-2015 8:18pm

I don't know what to do now?

Ozil, Eriksen, Sterling, Coutinho, Silva all 'in' possibilities. Leaning towards Ozil and Sterling at the moment

Sanchez, Downing, Yaya the 'out' possibilities. Probably won't sell Yaya yet with Leicester up next.

Can someone please advise what I could/should do? 60 behind in ML.

Edit:
I have enough for Downing to Coutinho. No hit that way but no Eriksen and still have a misfiring Sanchez

I would go with Sterling over Coutinho. Coutinhos goals and most of his shots have all been from long range so it's unlikely he'll maintain his current hot streak.

Sterling is the opposite, he gets a lot of chances in the box, he probably is under performing infront of goal as he's missing a lot of those chances so I'd expect his output from now until the of the season to improve.

This is exactly what I was thinking earlier and it's putting huge doubts in my mind about getting him in..............

The plus though is that I can do a straight Downing - Coutihno. Can't do Downing to Sterling without a hit
