    I'm more tempted to save the WC for a DGW fixture I think. Using the WC for next week could end result in filling your team up with players you don't want to keep for the rest of the season.

    Selling Fellani but for who is the problem........

    Michu,Gerrard or a squad filler.......

    Dumping Fellaini aswell. I'm leaning towards Sissoko off Newcastle or possibly Michu.

    Also as an aside, does anybody think it's worth getting rid of Demel for Turner off Norwich or some other cheapo defender with a game on in GW29? I'm likely to only have 10 players for next week and have been looking to offload Demel for a while now. Thinking it might be worth taking a 4 point hit and having some if not all of it subsidised by 2-6 points from Turner.

    No ill be missing 4 at worst so will hold off to see if the doubles get played on same gw.

    Pog to either benteke or lukaku to give me 11 starters (hopefully). Currently have 7.1m in the bank!

    If you can afford it I'd go for Bassong over Turner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,255 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    I'll be transferring Zabaleta out for someone to give me 11. Benching Mata, Walcott and RVP as the only players I'll have missing.

    Id go for turner its a waste of 1.1 getting in bassong just because he scored 3 goals in 4 games 3 months ago. Turners as much of a threat as bassong from set pieces. Also if your going to pay 5.3 defender you would want to be playing him every week and you wont with bassong. Turner is a good shout norwich have great home fixtures.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    The idea was Pog -> Sturridge and Demel -> Samba. 4 point hit to field 10 players.

    Need to reassess the Sturridge one although I think he'll be fit.

    Bringing Boruc in and happy enough to go with 10 rather than take a points hit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,468 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    so glad I've 2 transfers.

    will probably do Cashley to Samba and Townsend to Sissoko.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,676 ✭✭✭thunderdog


    Looking at O'Brien to Samba and might do Mata to Gerrard for a 4 point hit if the Chelsea game is definitely off


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Im sure there will be a fair few looking at coutinho now. Fellani to coutinho will be one of my moves


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,468 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic

    he's unlikely to be a nailed on starter yet, but yes, potentially an interesting one.


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


    2 ft's and not sure what to do.

    players not playing in gw29

    RVP
    Walcott
    Mata
    Zabaleta
    Fellaini
    Evra
    Pog

    want to keep RVP, Walcott, Mata, evra and fellaini in my team so any of them would need to be transferred back in the week after.

    I'd lose too much on RVP and walcott so they're out of the equation.
    I don't plan to use pog again this season and have 7 good attacking players so don't want to waste a transfer on him as there's no one else in his price bracket guaranteed to play.

    so that leaves

    Fellaini, Mata, evra or zab, 2 from them, i'm thinking sissoko for fellaini or else gerrard for mata
    and then not sure what defender to bring in for zab? i could bring in both sissoko and gerrard but then it requires 2 transfers to get fellaini and mata back in, whereas i'm not too fussed about keeping zab.

    oh and mata is due to drop .1 tonight so might need to move on that one today or else just take the loss if i do transfer him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I honestly could get less than 10 points during this Gameweek 29 :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,186 ✭✭✭G1032


    First transfer done. Azpil out. Enrique in. 7.5m left in theh bank.
    If all players keep fit, and Sturridge plays, I'll have 10 players as it stands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    I currently have 8 players for next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,426 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    I have:

    da Silva
    Sagna
    Mata
    Fellaini
    Walcott
    RVP
    Pog

    ...all not playing.

    I am thinking of taking a 8pt hit to replace da Silva, Sagna and either Mata or Pog.

    Will Yanga-Mbia start next week?? I want him in my team for the rest of the season if so. But not sure if I should gamble on it with the gw that's in it. Samba or Olsson are my other potentials.

    Then it's either Sissoko for Mata or Remy for Pog.

    Thoughts? Mata looks like he'll go down tonight although he's 0.3 higher than what I bought him at so even if he goes down 0.1 I still get the same selling price for him.

    Pulled the trigger on Mata to Sissoko,Mata's not been pulling in the points lately & due a drop.Currently have 10 playing & one more FT but who to get is a dillema.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    I remember I subbed Mata out before Gameweek 15, after he scored 1,3,1 in his previous three matches.

    He then went on to score 7,8,6,11,7,1,14. I subbed him back in for Gameweek 22 and he got me 34 points as captain.

    I don't think I'll be selling him again.

    The way Chelsea are playing these days,I can't see a repeat of that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,250 ✭✭✭Steven81


    Chelsea got Villa, west ham, southampton and sunderland next few matches.

    Mata should play a big role in these games


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    If you could transfer in any midfielder just for this gameweek who would you get? I already have Bale and Michu. For some reason I'm very tempted by Taarabt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭OctavarIan


    I know this stat is totally meaningless in Fantasy Football terms but Chelsea had 25 shots today, 19 on target. I didn't see the game so I'm not sure how it finished 1-0, but I like those numbers. Mata stays.

    I would be tempted by Taraabt too but he was dropped today. I currently have 10 players for next week; may get rid of Lampard for a 2 week punt on Nzogbia to field 11.

    Yeah just seen he didn't play today, well that's him ruled out, I really need a guaranteed starter this week, probably end up getting Sissoko, I'd say he will be a popular transfer this week.

    Sissoko is a decent call, Newcastle's fixtures are fairly good apart from a trip to Eastlands in gw 31. I've already got him so I'm going to punt on Nzog for the next two weeks, Reading (a) and QPR (h), he's been performing ok and they're make or break fixtures for Villa.

    Yeah Villa have a nice run in, I got Benteke this week and there is a good chance Ill keep him for the rest of the season. I expect them to do well and stay up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,880 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    4pt hit gives me this 10 for GW29,Sturridge is proving very frustrating,RVP should be back for gw30

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,743 ✭✭✭blatantrereg


    Thinking of Baines out for Enrique. Have 0.7 in bank. Will leave me with a 9 man squad for the week, which is far from ideal but more tinkering might be more destructive than useful (only one free transfer also). A third option might be demel out for rangel.

    Got Baines at 7.0. He's now worth 7.6 so I want to be sure I want to remove him long term. I could switch out Rafael temporarily, whom I got for 6.0 (and is now worth 6.2).

    Bigger question than that is whether Enrique can be considered a regular starter at this point. He has missed a good few games. Is he used in rotation, or was there reasons for his absences? [edit: oh I see he was injured for the period he missed in January; missed a longer period last year though too].


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    I'd hold on to Baines, Everton will have a DGW coming up and I fancy him to get another goal or two before the end of the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,129 ✭✭✭NabyLadistheman


    Im not to bad, as of now I have 9 playing (federici doubtful) and 2 free transfers. Thinking of Walcott to Sissoko as one change. Have Ageuro captain tomorrow night, another blank and he will be my 2nd transfer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    I'm a bit f**ked tbh. Pogrebnyak has made a mess of it - I play the c*nt once, he gets me -2 points and will cost -4 to get rid because of the GW29 shenanigans. Reading are at home to Villa too :mad:

    Currently have 8 available for next week with 1 FT :eek: - and that's after already taking a point hit last week to do the Fellaini/Sissoko move early in preparation. I was actually coming into this week with 7 players and 1 FT! Team

    Thing is, I'm not willing to get rid of Evra, Mata, Walcott or Zabaleta so will probably play next week with 10 at most. Zab isn't a must have, but who is worth taking another 4 point hit to bring in for GW29? Enrique is a shout but I don't fancy him against Spurs. Also, City's game isn't 100% confirmed off yet, and even if it is they'll then have a DGW to look forward to so I think it's worth holding on to him.

    My moves will almost definitely be:

    Demel - Samba
    Pog - Sturridge/Benteke


    Will wait until later in the week after CL games and see how Sturridge is looking.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭unkymo


    I'm waiting for Le Fondre to drop and I'll get him in for Pog.

    That'll give me 10 for next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,186 ✭✭✭G1032


    Would it be unwise to sell Sturridge now and buy Suarez? Suarez going up tonight. Even if Sturridge is available next week will be play 90 minutes?

    Liverpool aren't playing in Europe any more & definitely not in the CL.

    I'm thinking the same, even if Sturridge is fit what's the chances of Rodgers changing a team that won 4-0?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 742 ✭✭✭Loco


    Walcott -> Sissoko
    Giroud -> Benteke

    Good / bad? :-)

    You misunderstood.

    I'll wait until after the CL games in case something changes that would affect my transfers (Evra injury etc) AND I'll see if Sturridge looks likely to play


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13 Flyer9


    Might be worth waiting until after the CL alright.
    If someone like RVP got crocked badly, it would make up your mind over who to dump for next week pretty quick.

    I'm stuck with Fellaini, Wallcott & RVP not playing but gotta be Fellaini out if any right now... I'd only be 0.2m down to get him back.
    Sissoko & N'Zogbia were my thoughts but after reading above, Coutinho's an interesting one too.

    That makes sense alright,I have XI playing & used my 2 transfers,took out Demel for Santon as my 2nd transfer & kept a nice few quid in the bank for future transfers.

    dont expect anymore than a point from him though. that's all i've gotten out of him the last 4 weeks anytime I needed him

    they won 5 0 the league game before with sturridge starting. If fit id be very surprised if he didnt start.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    City vs Villa still have to play tonight. United play in the CL tomorrow night, Arsenal play Wednesday. Spurs, Chelsea and Newcastle play Thursday night in Europa league.

    And people are making transfers already.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Sturridge will play if he's fit, I've no concerns there(until saturday of course when I become the ultimate pessimist). I'm swapping Evans for either Johnson or Enrique and I'm also gonna dump one of Walcott, Mata and Aguero. If Aguero doesn't produce tonight it will be him I'd say, that will give me 11 players without a hit, it will be my first time playing a back 5.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭SpaceCowb0y


    Need a temporary replacement for Mata, my other mids are Bale, Sissoko, Walcott and Michu.

    Who is the best replacement for next week? Im looking at maybe De Guzman?

    Agreed, except Arsenal don't play on wednesday, and City/Man U/Chelsea games are sort of irrelevant as no one will be transferring any of their players in this week (no one sane anyway!)

    With Spurs, Villa and Newcastle having games this week, its asking for trouble bringing in any of their players before tonight (Villa) or friday (Spurs and Newcastle).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 315 ✭✭Ice87


    Yep I'm waiting to see what happens tomorrow night in the CL. If United go through I will be getting rid of RVP for Suarez.
