Mata, Yaya Toure, Gerrard, Hazard, Jedinak

Sturridge, Suarez, Lukaku

£1m in the bank

Holding on my ManU players until after the Villa Game. Evra not playing against WHU makes me want to dump him now though! Thinking Mata out for Silva & Evra out for Zabaleta when the time comes. Thoughts are to deal with Bennett or bank my transfer to cover those two changes.

Any dirt cheap defender worth having for a few gw's?

Chester at Hull.

WoollyRedHat

Is Chester a regular? I can't figure out the Hull defence, have Bruce, but annoyed that he doesn't play.

Considering Chambers though if I could get some kind of convincing info to say Clyne won't play. That sort of information isn't usually readily available though unless he is injured so I just don't know.

"Then came the equaliser, an injury to Nathaniel Clyne as well and it was a heavy punishment for the way that we played today.

I still wouldn't go near the Southampton defence though; losing the cleanie in the last 5 minutes against Norwich was my final straw.

Chester generally plays when not injured. Bruce appears to have been covering him.

I only have 4.3 to play with, and I'm pretty happy with the rest of my team for now. The other option is Wes Brown. I already have 8 DGW players for GW 34 though and I'm going to be starting Suarez, Sturridge and Hazard for sure so I just don't think I need a Sunderland player for that purpose anyway.

Bardsley is worth a shout as he is a goal threat who likes to get forward a lot.

Who_8_Paul?

Transfer plans seem fairly well layed out now until the end of the season. After this week it's 3 transfers in 3 weeks to prepare for DGW34 (get a 3rd Man City player priority); then it's 3 transfers in 3 weeks to prepare for DGW37 (getting Rooney and Man Utd defender is priority); then 1 final transfer for GW38 to make some improvement to squad for final matchday. Big question is will Aguero be back and become a necessity.

sanket

Gonna ignore aguero even if he scores a brace in his comeback game.
He is injury prone these days and might get injured while getting down from the bus for the next match.

Who_8_Paul?

Yeah but 3 of Man City's 4 games in GWs 33, 34 and 35 are home to Southampton, home to Sunderland and home to West Brom; away to Liverpool also thrown in there. If Aguero gets back fit, he could go wild

wonski

I am done with Aguero - too many comebacks so far. Better options out there without any risk involved.
Could be nice differential, but I am not going to risk it.

The future DGW can be 1 match show for him and another for Dzeko.

How many times was he supposed to run wild after his injury?
Not worth it imo.

Ziegler1988

I'll probably target Lukaku for DGW34 and Rooney for DGW37

roryc

Aguero is too much of a risk, been burned again recently and just don't think it's worth it. United's GW37 looks far juicier. I'm looking at banking my transfers this week, then probably Silva and Mirallas in for GW33. Looking at my team for GW34 and I'll probably bank my transfer tbh. Will be benching Colback too, DGW or not. I'll have 7 DGW'ers plus Azpil + Hazard (who face Stoke at home) and SAS who are undroppable at the moment, even at home to City. Can't see any of those 4 that are worth dropping so will bank it ahead of GW37.

Screw you guys, I'm getting Aguero in!

I've been burned twice by him this season so have lost 8 points through transfers. I'll be waiting until he is back and confirmed fully fit before I bring him in this time.

I plan to bank my transfer this weekend unless Gerrard picks up a booking. Will bring in a City defender and Everton midfielder ahead of GW34. May even bring in Hart as well.

Doubling up on the Chelsea defence worked well for me there for a few weeks so I'm not as adverse to it as I used to be.

Mr.Prodston

If Aguero has played a game or 2 by DGW34 then I'll get him. I've got nothing to lose so if it fails then who cares.

A prospect like that for the rest of the season with City gunning for the title is hard to ignore. The Dzeko bridge has well and truly been burnt though and has been for weeks now!

Hart is a great option and was my plan all along foolishly changed getting him in for boruc to bringing in mannone instead on friday night. Not one of my better moves considering I already have bardsley.

I've been debating between Hart and Mannone and think I'll go with Vito. Hart has the easier fixtures but will very rarely get more than one save or bonus point. Mannone on the other hand has shown he can go double digits and is also 1.5m cheaper.

Its probably a toss up to be fair when you factor in the extra 1.5. Another downside to hart is he takes up 1 of the 3 city options in your squad which could be crucial if aguero comes back.
Im thinking with sunderland now that they will have to become more attacking as they try to stay up so clean sheets may dry up.

I'm gonna save a transfer this week and get him in next week if he has made a successful return. I think he's worth the risk given city's double game weeks and his class.

Also I already have 8 dgw players so can afford to take the risk.

Shedite27

My plan is to get Aguero in for Sturridge for GW33. From there on Aguero plays 8 versus Sturridge's 6. Will be praying he doesn't break again.

Dempsey

Giving serious consideration to getting rid of either Evra or Mata before the Villa game after that shambles. They are an inept team

Evra out for Zabaleta is the one I really want to do. Giving serious consideration to doubling on ManC midfielders, i.e. getting in Silva & have Yaya

hurlingman97

Is Barkley injured? Just wondering why he went off? Otherwise I'm getting him in.

Ziegler1988

Mata out for Lallana, so tired of his perpetual blanks.

Ace2007

evra to demichelis is that a no brainer - united are all over the place, demichelis seems to start all the time and city's defence is strong.

roryc

If Evra is likely to start against Villa I'll hold on to him, fancy United to keep a clean sheet despite tonight's woeful performance. Transferring him out for a City defender (away at Arsenal) screams of kneejerk to me.

If being a big if, Buttner needs to get game time before the CL game, I also have De Gea so don't miss out on the clean sheet part.

roryc

I have Skrtle to come in if Evra doesn't play at all, and I would expect him to wither start or not feature. Would be happy enough with either Evra or Skrtle, think Arsenal will score against City.

No, Demichelis is never a no brainer. Get Zabaleta if you really want a City defender but I cant see any clean sheets in their next 3 games for City.

I know that he is a liability at times but he gets game time.
I just realised he is also not a cheap as I thought he was, thought he was close to 5m as oppose to 5.9.

I've actually had a look about and I think Chelsea have the nice run in, so might get Terry in short term, until GW34 were city have a DGW.

Santi101

Tbh i wouldnt be shocked if city kept a clean sheet against us this weekend. We look limp atm.

Swansea contained us quite comfortably but for a 5 minute spell.
