    Forgot about Mikel heading off plus Romue is long term injured,options are limited in there for Chelsea then...suddenly looks an option.......

    Am wondering about Chelsea's DGW too looks likely that it could be GW22 with Southampton as well as Stoke

    I wonder if Moses is decent value at 6.2m. Benitez seems to like him and doesnt start with the trio of attacking mids that Di Matteo did, Oscar has been benched.

    Although no goals or assists for Moses yesterday in a 8-0 romp, thats not great.

    He's also likely to be going to the ACON, meaning he'll probably be missing from GW22 until he gets back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Yeah that's a good point. All in all there are probably a good number of better alternatives in the 6m pricerange.

    Ramires might be one to consider. Might take Moses' place on the right. Scored 2 goals and got the 3BP coming off the bench yesterday. priced 6.2 also


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Yeah, I had Ramires earlier in the season and he frustrated the life out of me. Might reconsider getting him in again around wildcard time.

    I read somewhere that Mancini wants him to give it a miss.......hope so!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,278 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    The Africa Cup of Nations is on from 19 January until 10 February so players could be missing for over 4 weeks.

    If Yaya tried to sit it out, the Ivory Coast could have FIFA place a sanction on him so he can't play domestic football during their involvement.

    He'll definitely go though. Of course Mancini doesn't want him to but he will.

    I seem to remember the Ivory Coast lads heading off at least a week or 2 before the tournament kicked off last year . So could be 5 or 6 weeks away

    Already had to make 2 transfers due to the potential for 11 players not playing as happened over the weekend but now I only have 2 defenders in Nastasic, Clark and Cuellar who are playing/fit and Cuellar is against City so thinking of taking another hit. This season has really been a trainwreck.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 10,259 ✭✭✭✭Melion


    Baines out for Luiz is my transfer this week, ive decided to stick with Berbatov for one more GW


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭qwabercd


    I have a feeling this is going to be a shocking week for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    only have the bare minimum 11 players but i think they should all play so not taking a points hit. (i presume sterling will be back after his rest)

    anyway here's my team, if anyone notices any players not likely to play please tell me.....being the season of goodwill and all :D
    begovic

    baines, enrique, nelsen, cameron

    michu, silva, sterling

    RVP (c) defoe, benteke
    4 subs with no game, jussi, mertesacker, nolan, cazorla

    used my transfer to bring in cameron for mc cauley, there's about 5 other transfers i'd like to make but trying to hold out for the wildcard before a complete revamp. It might have been wiser to have used my transfer to move out one of the players with no game but really wanted rid of mc cauley and figured my other 11 would start.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,188 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Really need Sterling to start this week.........

    he still scored yesterday. and he might be on penos when Lampard isn't playing. Mikel off to the ACON in January too so at this stage i think he represents great value

    Doubt he will take pens, Hazard is surely second in line behind Lampard.

    Thankfully it'll be over by 9:30 tomorrow night, and our pain won't be prolonged into a second day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,176 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    Only me with defoe so.Taking that as a good luck charm!

    Gonna save my transfer for the first time this season. Don't think the hit would be worth it.

    Gonna do J Evans to Gibbs and Walcott to Bale (Can't ignore Spur's next couple of weeks)

    James Morrison has been avoiding the transfer for a while now, but his eventual replacement was going to be Snodgrass/Taarabt (Nolan another option) but their fixtures are dire, so it looks like he'll survive until the wildcard

    Something about todays fixtures makes me think that nobody is particularly looking forward to them, I'm just hoping to win my cup game and will be happy enough with a slightly above average score, very hard to see fireworks from my team, I'm hoping for Berbatov to explode and will probably have him as captain but I'm almost certain it will backfire on me, either Rooney or VP will likely be rested, Suarez away to Stoke etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Transfers were done earlier,my tinkering is limited due to Juusi & Santi not playing today so my only subs are McCauley & Cuellar.
    Dempsey to Bale & Sterling to Puncheon for me this week,I really must try to get some Chelsea cover now that Rafa has promised goals,goal,goals.

    Don't have any interest in the cup thanks to Chelsea running riot the other day:(

    Anyone else finding that the impending Christmas wildcard is making them take more risks? My mind is awash with thoughts such as "Ah sure if this transfer doesn't work, I can always wildcard in a few weeks."

    The plan last week was to get in Dzeko for 1 week and then transfer in Berbatov.

    Despite the poor form, Fulham have 3 home games in 4, Berbatov doesn't need a rest as he is a lazy sexy bastard, and and Ruiz is very close to a return. I'm humming and hawing on Benteke but can't get that 8-0 out of my head.

    And that isn't even the biggest gamble I'm considering this gameweek. I'm flirting with the idea of getting in Stewart Fcuking Downing. Yes, the 1-week wonder, yes against the best defense on the league, yes for a hit.

    I need to do my Berbatov transfers and get off the internet for the day. The worst thing is that I'm flying this evening and will be missing the late footie. "Sir, please refrain from using your wifi on board this plane. Sir!!!!"
