    Martinez attacking style is mixing well with the defensive ethos ingrained by Moyes. Interesting that both players have signalled a willingness to stay beyond their loan deals. UCL football is needed to lure Lukaku though

    Lukaku and Courtois will both be back at Chelsea next year IMO. They said some stat last night on MoTD about a Chelsea striker not scoring away from home this year or something! Can't remember it exactly but it was crazy.

    Very surprised if Courtois isn't Chelsea no.1 next season

    In the same interview Lukaku when stated his willingness to stay at Everton he said that Chelsea hadnt contacted him in over 2 months. Relationship between parent club and player is very frosty.

    Skertel and Brady out for gabby and fer.

    Norwich have good fixtures and Brady is playing as a wing back.

    Skertel transfer is personal. Two ogs in three weeks. Get lost you dope

    Btw. Ozil is god

    Interestingly, Gareth Barry is unbeaten as an Everton player. That one game they lost was against City when Barry was ineligible due to playing against his parent club.

    I didn't rate Martinez pre this season but he's really proving me wrong. His signings for Everton have been superb. Lukaku and Barry have been exactly what they needed. It's just a pity for them that they're on loan.

    His deadline day dealings were unbelievable Lukaku and barry on loan and Mccarthy plus flogging fellani to utd for 27 million. I didn't rate evertons chances of keeping clean sheets as I was thinking their full backs would be too attacking, but in barry and mccarthy they have great defensive coverage for the two CBs. Regretably I havent had an everton defender all season.

    I've had Coleman from the start and I reckon he'll be a season keeper, he is going up again tonight.

    Just brought Fer in for Brady myself. Fer has some nice fixtures coming up!

    Have a possibly injured Gerard with a tough run of games coming up + 0.5 in the bank......
    Any suggestions for a good replacement?
    (My other midfielders are Ramsey, Hazard, Barkley & Ward Prowse)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Juan Mata has played 90, 80, 90 minutes respectively in his last 3 Premier league games. Granted Oscar's absence skews things but he did play in the first of the 3. He's 9.4 now too.

    I just want to live in a world where this isn't the exception to the rule :(

    Have 2 FT's & 0.7m banked but have a fair bit of reshaping to do with my side.

    - Have a 3.9m keeper(Davis who is almost redundant) + Whittaker(who actually played and got 5 pts!)
    - Had too much invested in defence(got a few out already)...do want Terry out after palace game perhaps
    - Want Mignolet out.......cant see many cleanies in next 4.
    - Midfield is lacking another big scorer I feel.
    - Want Barkley out...class but not FF friendly atm.
    - Want Lukaku up top for Remy

    Team is

    Mignolet(Davis)
    Terry, Mertesacker, Chico, Clyne, Whittaker.
    Ozil, Hazard, Barkley, Whitts, Morrison.
    Aguero, Suarez, Remy.

    What do ye think lads? Whats a priority there in your view?

    Need a better midfield but probably cant do it unless I go Ozil to Ramsey and then upgrade Barkley perhaps. happy enough with whitts and Morrison as bench options for now.

    Other possible money saving transfers:
    Terry >> Distin
    Mig >> Krul

    Whatever way I look at it, I think I need Ozil out to raise funds but I love the man!........:(.......that or terry to a really budget defender and go from there.

    This bloody game!....:mad:...work in the morning FFS!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,700 ✭✭✭Danger781


    Remy OUT, Lukaku IN has to be one..

    The other for me is probably Mignolet OUT, Howard IN

    You should be able to afford both

    Never. Sell. Ozil.

    Ever

    I sold Ozil, no regrets

    Double points in last three games. Highest point per game behind Suarez and augerio.

    Leads prem with assists despite only coming in week four.

    Fourth highest mid with three less games and....

    I just named my team "The Ozil California" in his honour

    Just made the Oh So Exciting transfer of Brady OUT El Ahmadi IN...

    Bench fodder move, but I needed that shitehawk Brady out of my squad, good player but he has been poor since coming back from injury. Freed up .7 mil too so that will come in handy elsewhere. Pantilimon to Howard next week I think. McGregor in between the sticks at the weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,452 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Any love for Schurle? Hard to know how many minutes he'll get with Chelsea's fixture congestion, but he's a cheap way into Chelsea's attack.

    Williamson. 4.4m. Guaranteed starter.

    Anyone see photo FF use for Norwich's Whittaker?

    Horrifying.

    I agree with everything here. BUT... But... but... What about a 1 week punt on Hazard (CPL H while Ozil will be away to City) ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Dubliner28


    Mignolet
    Ivanovic Coleman Fonte
    Mirallas Hazard Ramsey Townsend

    Fonte out and McAuley out for a Crystal Palace + Cardiff Defender
    That'd be one idea anyway

    Think more urgent transfers,
    If it was Me is move Ivan not worth price tag. So maybe Ivan and townzend to someone like gabbidon and lampard/ lallana

    Rav Morrison OUT --> Fer IN

    me team:

    Mignolet Harper
    Johnson Ivanovic Coleman Vlaar McAuley
    Hazard Rambo Fer Hernandez Oviedo
    Lukaku Suarez Aguero

    3m in bank

    Thinking of shipping out Ivanovic for Mertesacker, to save .3 but Arsenal's upcoming fixtures are tough!

    Yeah, you're right. I'm thinking of shipping Ivano as well, but for Evra. Uniteds def will get better as season goes on i say (happens pretty much every season), evra hardly ever misses a game and he's improved his attacking returns as well :)

    Just wait a few weeks, if you want Ivanovic out immediately just find a stopgap with some nice fixtures for 3 weeks.

    And no matter how poorly Chelsea have been performing at the back you'll surely give him the home game with Palace in the coming gameweek, seems a bit mad to remove a Chelsea defender before that.
