Bit of a quandry here.

Have only 2 fit defenders. Want to transfer Rooney to Aguero. Don't want to take a points hit. Would you risk going with only 10 players? I'm 4 points in front at the top of my league.

As someone said on this a while back don't take a point hit for a defender. You're banking on him getting a CS to break even and then get a goal to score points.

With one game left I'd play the ten. I'd only get the defender in if there were more games after. Also I detest point hits. Took only one this season. Got Dempsey in. Kind of worked for me and now he's injured.

That would be the case if the def I transfer out was fit, so no matter who I bring in will outscore Sagna you'ld imagine, was thinking Bosingwa. I think Chelsea are a nailed on cleanie. If I do that transfer I won't be doing the Aguero one so I won't take a points hit either way.

First place In my money league of about 50 guys so 500 snots on the line.

Just got an email from the guy in second place who is 19 points behind me - Now I dont really know this guy at all and am not sure how he got my email address but anyway.

His email basically wished me luck this weekend and said he hoped i wasnt feeling the presure before the 1130 deadline today !!!!!

The sneaky ****** thought I would be stupid enough to make my changes today so that he could see them tonight/tomorrow.

Unbelievable

i think the City game game will be a very tight game. I'd get Torres

My main quandry is whether to play 2 defenders or not.

Mr Moon

Took a 4 point hit, brought in Moses and Aguero for Dempsey and Rooney.

I've won both my money leagues already so just hoping for a higher finish.

iMuse

I have a 30 point lead in my money league but have no chelsea or city attacking players. Had to bring in Kompany for simpson as I was left with 2 defenders playing last week.Still don't know if I should take a 4 point hit or not, the guy chasing me has alot of different players so he could still overhaul me.

RB100

Right lads need to to get this one right to win the league. Shipping Dempsey to one of these:
Yaya
VDV
Young
Ramires(suspended for UCL final)
Silva
Nani

I know there is a lot there but somebody please help me choose!

How would he see them? You sure he wasn't just being nice, and didn't know the deadline was Sunday? It is the only time in the season this has happened, afterall, and he can't see your team until the deadline passes still. Unless he actually asked to see your team, then fair enough, he was looking for an edge.

Fowler87

Just the one transfer for me this wk.. Ramires in for Sess. Team looks fairly solid for final gw now.. Already have Moses and Aguero which seem to be big transfers in this wk

Trust no one!

While he couldnt see the actual transfers, he could see how many, which can be valuable info to have. He may not be around himself tomorrow morning to be able to check this and wanted to find out earlier - ie today

If people genuinely worry about that, I'll make it easy for you: Everyone worth their salt brought in a City player this week. Aguero, Silva, Toure. Take your pick.

The_Kew_Tour

Bought in YAYA and VDV for this GW.

I lie in 6th position from 40 in our league.

Im am 52 points ahead of 7th, but also 22 points behind 5th place. Thing is prizes fro top 5 in our league so looks like I will just miss out unless I get it spot on the money.

Good old tussle for top spot as 3 of my friends are in top 3,000 which is good going tbf.

I brought in Aguero and Silva for Jelavic and Dempsey. Was looking at Yaya, but dont City usually only push him on if they're struggling to break a team down? Cant see them having that problem tomorrow.

Against a team fighting for survival? You might be surprised...

keano_afc

They've been fighting for survival for a while now and are absolute pants away from home. The fact that its the final day might make a slight difference but City's home record is hard to back against.

I think people who jumped on the Man City Bus for one last hurrah will be sorely disappointed.

I certainly wouldnt back anything other than a City win. Just think it will be a very tight game. Don't see many goals. But anything can happen. An early City goal would certainly open things up, QPR would be forced to attack. But i think they'll be happy to park the bus and hold out as long as they can, also if City aren't careful they could be sucker-punched with a counter. I see it a very nervy, tight game, neither side giving much away. Stakes couldn't be higher for both clubs

Rikand

well thats always been my fear

coronaextra

51 points ahead in my money league, surely I couldn't throw away that lead .... surely!

I will be hoping for a really dull low scoring finish to the season (no goals mean no points)

Thinking of getting in Moses for Cabaye. Already have Cisse just want to spread the players around a bit just in case there is a goal feast, I have a better chance of catching a few points!
