    I presume there's no trace of injury on Tadic?

    Thinking I'm just going to do Nolan -> Tadic now in case he rises as he's just in reach. The joint in my leg may be twitching sporadically but I just need Nolan out of my team and get some closure on that sorry affair.

    Taken my first -4 of the season. Planned on getting in Aguero this week (damn) and have done that. Had exactly the funds to go Sterling, Azpi, Dzeko to Bertrand, Tadic, Aguero. Feels very kneejerky to be doing these before the GW's even over but needs must.

    The best forward line right now is Costa, Aguero and Pelle. Falcao has Chelsea, Arsenal and City in his next 5. If he scores well in those games, then he could be on his way to being a must have. Very few of the top ranking players have him and I wouldn't call them "foolish."

    Doing Tadic right now myself as well - I think everyones going to be getting him in fairly quickly. I'm replacing silva.

    Some good returns from siggy and di maria and I will have a front 7 all with * overall dream team stars * beside their names. :cool:

    Siggy, tadic, di maria, fab
    costa, pelle, aguero

    Yeah I've pulled the trigger now on Nolan -> Tadic. Have 0 in the bank now.

    I also have that front 7 :)

    Spot of advice appreciated.

    Have 2 fts this week and want tadic. I think him and pelle justified for next few weeks and both will be great for team value.

    But I went with double Saints defence on my wildcard which is looking like a good plan but one I may have to sacrifice.

    Forster, Hamer
    Clyne, Chambers, Moore, Duff, Hutton
    Template 4 + Boyd
    Aguero, Costa, Pelle.
    1.7 in bank.

    Is clyne and Sterling to Tadic and Baines a good move.

    But. Of my back 5 Clyne is the one I'd rather keep. He's rising well. Good for attacking returns and I'd think he could outscore Forster in this favourable run of fixtures.

    So I could do Forster to Foster. Hutton to Baines and Sterling to Tadic for-4.

    Thoughts anyone?

    Or. Option 3 would be to let the Baines-wagon roll on and do Forster to another viable keeper and Siggy to Tadic. That should leave me flexible to do Sterling to Walcott if I look a bit further ahead....

    Going to go Sterling to Tadic which will also free up funds.
    Have to get rid of Azpi also, can afford any defender, any advice? Thinking either Baines or Coleman..

    Same here, the new template.

    Dropping Sterling may be a knee jerk reaction. 7 really nice fixtures in their next 8 matches. Alot of people will soon have 3 Southampton players!!! Think of coverage.

    Hope this doesn't affect his imminent brace tomorrow ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Costa out? Stupid Mourinho, can't trust anything he says. Would love to do Costa to Pelle and be able to get Baines.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    Ulloa, Ivan and Silva out for Pelle, Tadic and Chambers. Done. My first truly kneejerk decision since the week 1 wildcard.

    I was thinking that it might be a bit of a knee-jerker alright but I've no Soton cover and Liverpool are not performing like they were last season. I fancy Tadic to outscore Sterling in the next few games, and until Studge comes back. I'll probably pull the trigger on that one soon depending on price rises.

    I think it would be fairly foolish to shape your team around having Aguero, Falcao & Costa ALL in your team at one time.
    Way too much money tied up in 3 places, way too many good mid price options and if I was to try to find 3 more injury prone strikers, I would struggle.

    Mourinho said: "He will be in great condition in mid November to be back for the national team. That's for sure.
    "He will play for me when he has free time from the national team."

    Despite all his managing talents, the guy really is a dick. The sentence I bolded sweats all his childish "rageous" broken pride from his overall failure at Real Madrid :rolleyes:...


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,249 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    I'm going to see how Sterling goes tomorrow but Liverpool aren't playing well and Sturridge is a big loss for them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 153 ✭✭Want2know


    Hi Guys can you recommend a midfielder costing no more than 6M???

    Im currently looking at the below people but is there anyone else I should be looking at?

    Henderson
    Schneiderlin
    Downing
    Diamé

    Henderson all the way. 90 mins every week, 34 points so far, declared intention to get into the box more this season, nice fixtures for the next while.

    Is there any chance that Costa isn't injured at all and Mourinho is playing the most elaborate mind game of all time?

    Diame seems like the real deal. Tough fixtures, but playing very advanced and in great form.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,374 ✭✭✭basillarkin


    Looking for some advice here.

    Who to drop? Sterling has too nice a run of fixtures coming up to drop him. I want Tadic in my side as I've no saints cover in attack. What do people think of Siggy to Tadic?

    Degea

    Clyne PVA Dummett (Hutton) (Wisdom)

    ADM Siggy FAB Sterling (Boyd)

    KUN Danny Costa


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    If I didn't have so much value tied up in Siggy, then Tadic in for the next four GWs and then back out for Siggy before GW13 would look great.

    I think he might just need to rest up. Jose wanted him to have two weeks off. Spain didn't allow him it. Now Jose is giving him the two weeks before the season really gets going.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,374 ✭✭✭basillarkin

    That's the problem, I'm going to lose to much value in him. Even still I'm very close to pulling the trigger


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,093 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    Costa out? Stupid Mourinho, can't trust anything he says. Would love to do Costa to Pelle and be able to get Baines.

    I'm quite happy to go without him for the next few GWs
    1. Because I have to
    2. United & Liverpool away - hoping these will be tight affairs.
    3. He's not going to be a run away captain choice so risk is halved
    4. I'll be praying non stop that he's rested against QPR

    I'm waiting to see how falcao does first but I'm planning something along these lines
    ........costa to aguero this week falcao to costa week after
    There is NO WAY I'm not having costa for QPR game
    No way

    Sterling to Tadic
    Pelle to Aguero

    Thoughts????


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,093 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    There was another reason I went for him, it's less applicable now maybe.

    I had Fab and there was lots of talk about Fab -> Hazard, if Fab gets transferred out en masse this week and you keep him then you've basically got yourself Costa Coverage :)

    You want to transfer out the current player of the month and a lad that is a mid priced striker but scored 2 and got an assist today!?

    Madness.
