    Does anyone know what the story with West Ham's keepers are? Adrian has played 4 of the last 6 and is a tempting option as a 2nd keeper if he were to play.

    As a WHU fan, there hasn't been any official announcement about him begin the number 1, but on form he should be.

    That said, I can't see us keeping a clean sheet at all these day, not until Reid gets back at least.

    Hmm. Was looking at getting in Cabaye tonight but transfer speculation has turned me off him. Can wait another day before Aguero rises again.

    Can't see newcastle turning down a big money offer from PSG.

    I sold adebayor last night for aguero, thinking that lukaku would be a better option than ade in the coming weeks
    I think I got it wrong


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 469 ✭✭hjkl


    Ozil out Yaya in... three weeks after I did Ozil in Yaya out. Around in circles I'm going. :(

    Did the same thing last week, was all geared up to drop Lukaku but changed my mind at the last minute and said goodbye to Ade - all i can say is hang tough, Lukaku might do the business tomorrow - need a good auld 'Return of the Striker' performance....

    Looking at a -8 this week. Silva, Giroud and Sterling out for Yaya, JRod and Cabaye.
    Just did this. Now or never as Cabaye rises tonight.

    Fingers crossed PSG stay the fook away from him!

    Will most likely play a 352 next GW as JRod plays the Arse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,084 ✭✭✭kevthegaff


    johnson or lallanna??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,855 ✭✭✭The Wild Bunch


    Ozil and Giroud to Cabaye and Rooney


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 537 ✭✭✭Hackers


    With Torres now out for a few weeks, surely consideration has to be given to Eto as his time on the pitch will increase significantly?

    With most probably having Suarez and Aguero in their teams, there is just the one striker spot to be filled and at a price of 8.2 Eto looks tasty?

    I have Adebayor myself currently filling that 3rd spot, would be a tough decision to drop him though!

    Torres injured though means he should.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,215 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Chelsea strikers don't usually score alot though. I mean yesterday he scored very well but that has been a bit of a buck of the trend. I'm happy to persevere with Adebayor in with Aguero and Suarez until I have reason not to.

    They play 1 up top though and with his age Eto is likely to be subbed around the 70 minute mark a lot. Plus he might be rotated for the more straightforward fixtures which obviously isnt ideal from an FPL point of view.

    Quickly talking myself out of the transfer here


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


    Should I pull the trigger on Negredo to Adebayor? Ozil needs to go too,a lot of money tied up for little return lately.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 475 ✭✭Rosco79


    New to this game but are the Aguero price rises beginning to look disproportionate to the number of buyers?

    When he got injured he was valued at £12.5m and under price protection around 850k people sold him but hes now closing in on a rise to £12.3m with only c. 250k people buying him back to date.... that doesnt make sense

    For a player to drop 0.1m, 10% of his ownership must sell him. that number is unique per player.

    To rise 0.1m, a set number of players must buy him. That number is the same for all players.

    The numbers don't need to be proportionate. How many people would have sold Aguero in one day once he got injured and confirmed out for a large period of time? Alot more than would have brought him in any one day given the Cardiff start being unlikely.

    Aguero was not under any sort of price protection while injured.

    Don't forget that the NTO Threshold for a price drop is approximately 2.5 times greater than the usual Threshold for price drops when a player is redflagged.

    For non Aguero owners this should mean he wil easily surpass 13.0 in value if his ownership continues to increase.

    On that basis though his price falls should have been greater. No matter how you cut it, if far fewer have bought back as yet than sold then price should not yet be back within touching distance of its peak. I appreciate it may be the way that the game is set up but I still dont think it makes sense.

    My point is that you can only go up .1 or down .1 in 1 day. If everybody shipped out Aguero in 1 day (or 2) when he was confirmed as out, he can only go down .2 in those 2 days regardless of the amount of people who transferred him out. That is my understanding at least but there are people who understand the mechanics of price increases/rises much better than me.

    I get your point and understand it, I'm just suggesting that if you look at what has happened over the course of his injury in terms of total movements in and out then the system the game applies might be a bit of an ass....

    Yeah fair enough, I think the idea of a player dropping .3 or .4 in a night might be considered equally ridiculous by some though.

    I agree but perhaps the game needs some sort of a simple price protection for injuries that stops price exceeding pre injury peak value until transfers back in balance with what had transferred out.... It wouldnt be hard to apply and wouldnt require any chance to how value has fallen.

    To be honest the reverse is also true. Look at RVP, his constant flagging means that he has hardly dropped in value at all. If he got fit and went to Suarez levels of ownership his price could thereotically hit 15.0m!

    Part of the strategy of the game is to get on to a sure thing as cheap as possible. For me that was Suarez at 10.9 and Aguero at 11.1. I sold him for 11.8 and and bought back for 12.0, although i did gain 0.3 from Negredo in the interim (based on a 0.6 rise) so i acually made some profit on selling aguero and buying him back. He will be lethal for the season so is a keeper for me. The great thing is the wildcard at the moment means his value will sore to the point where my league competitors that haven't brought Aguero in won't be able to afford to do so.

    Unfortunately the league leader (ranked 1K) has him now but no one else in the the top 5 of my PL has him or can afford him with a massive transfer point hit to re-jig their teams. Aguero is now a big differential for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,266 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Ditched Lallalana for AJ (SUN)


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


    If Lukaku doesn't perform tonight he'll be gone quicker than something that goes really quick


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,095 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Considering Giroud to Bony. Swansea's next 4 are Fulham (H) West Ham (A) Cardiff(H) and Stoke(A) and they really need to start putting points on the board. More favourable fixtures than Adebayor who I'm also considering.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 241 ✭✭orkkukunkku


    Already have Aguero&Silva and its time to dump Özil. Is it too much to get also Yaya with them or should I spread the risk and choose Cabaye (if he stays)?

    Is there a risk with City? They will always score. Always.

    I can't imagine he'll be a differential for long. One more week max I'd say, if even.

    It's impossible not to be able to afford both Suarez and Aguero up front with all the high performing mid value midfielders out there IMO. May require a 4 point hit but can't imagine anyone having to do major surgery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43 Two Girls One Klopp


    When should Rooney be back. Considering switching Giroud to Rooney to make myself a strikeforce of Suarez/Aguero/Rooney. I was making hay with this pairing earlier in the season before Aguero got injured. Would get rid of Coleman for McNaughton, only 3.8 mil defender currently playing..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Lukaku going down tonight & Traore likely to come in makes me want to jump ship.

    Adebayor is the obvious one, anyone else to consider? 9.4m to spend!

    Sturridge or Ade for the bigger hitter, Jay Rod for the money saving and potential rises, and my differential would be Bony for the good form and run of fixtures

    Gerrard has a decent history against Everton, hat trick two years ago being one example... City have only won 1 of last 10 at Spurs although that was 5-1 in 2011

    I pulled the feckin trigger on Coleman last night seeing he was injured and I have my wildcard active. I see he's rated as 75% this morning. The one time I try to get ahead of the game and not lose out on value I'm going to get stung. I've had Coleman for months so he's too expensive to get back in.

    That was a crazy move. He hasn't even been assessed yet. Barring gangrene he is staying in my team until he comes back as I have him since gw 1 so he can sit on the bench until he returns.

    61 points for the week and up to 85K overall.

    Will not be getting in YaYa as Silva is fine and waiting until City's tough fixtures are over for Augerio


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,215 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Would be surprised if Coleman doesn't miss games. Still, rushing the decision makes no sense when you wouldn't even be in a rush to find someone who isn't rising. Barely anyone is.

    6-8 weeks out would be the ideal

    (I expect 1 game at most though)

    I think you're underestimating the impact of a hamstring injury. I mean it is possible that it is only minor but the likelihood for this kind of thing is a few weeks out stretching as far as the length in your post above.

    I just don't want to jinx it. ;) If he's back at the weekend I'll be pretty disappointed

    Edit: next week, whenever the derby is

    Lukaku went down last night so I now cant afford the Remy move. Might just stick with the big f**ker. In no rush to get rid of Coleman, was half thinking of benching him against Pool anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 642 ✭✭✭CrabieCrawford


    Anyone considering benteke, a goal against Liverpool and one against arsenal in his last two. Some nice fixtures come up.

    He was shocking for the first half of the season though. Am I mad thinking of going for him over ade/lukaku/Sturridge/viroid/jrod?
