Gameweek 3 transfers

dahat

Late to the party it seems.....sure lets gamble then..why ever not!

PARlance

Fab -> Silva

Team in good shape, have 0.1 in the bank from Fab and my sights are set on Hazard soon.

Silva near (possibly) his first rise and well... Stoke at home vs Everton away is tastier.

dahat

Done, reckless maybe, silly maybe but it could just work... Just maybe.

extra gravy

Am really tempted to do it now too after a few beers...damn ye all :pac:

Not worth it for that team at all, for me.

Guzan? Really?
Lovren->Clichy
Bruce->Dummett
Rooney->Aguero
Long-> Berahino

Those transfers do not a wildcard make. There's doubts over Aguero and Clichy starting. Long should out score Betahino and Guzan's fixtures are well. Awful.

I understand the City influx but if it were me I'd try and squeeze one in and maybe reassess next week?

I don't mean to sound harsh either, it's not a bad team and holding off another week might be better

Can't see a massive improvement in your team really: if it's centred around getting Aguero in (which is too early for me) then why not make 2 transfers
Rooney -> Aguero
Long -> Naismith
You'll have enough with the 0.7 in the bank.

The only other changes are
Clichy: may be subject to a bit of rotation v Lovren: bad start but I doubt it'll be too long before they tighten up
Bruce v Dummet: not a priority I'd say... Use a FT to do it next week.
Guzan (and Villa) aren't suddenly world beaters, I'd opt for Krul myself and wouldn't see it as a priority.... Begovic prob won't be keeping a clean sheet this week but there's no guarantee others will.

Edit: What Mr. P said... We're getting fierce sensible(ish)

You should have both on your team.

I take it you're gonna play 3-4-3 or 4-4-2. I would suggest swapping Berahino for Naismith to save half a million. No point having double Villa defence, have you seen their upcoming fixtures?! I am going for the Krul Elliot combo atm which is the cheapest option and I think it would be better than Guzan Myhill. I wouldn't want Clichy in my team, too much rotation with Kolarov for my liking. Clyne instead of Clichy and Neil Taylor instead of Vlaar imo. If going with the 2 Newcastle keepers, change Dummett to Moore of Leicester. Chadli is another major rotation risk. Don't be put off by his mega haul last weekend, that won't happen very often. I would think Lamela or Eriksen are safer picks from the Spurs midfield so you could go with one of them. I don't think El Ahmadi is getting much gametime at Villa so a better 4.5 mid would be Marney or Wanyama.

Hope this helps.

Maybe your right might see what happens if i hang on to get 2 fts see who might hit a bit of form then
Thanks

Why in the world would you ever trade Rooney?

Yes, and I should have transferred Mata out last week

There's only so many 9m midfielders that'll fit in.

You might want to ask the guy that's transferring him out now as opposed to me.

But I'll have no problem upgrading him to Aguero in a few weeks time if Aguero is back and fit.

Sorry. Aguero is a great player but soooo delicate. Rooney is a bulldog and so talented.

Oh and Pelle scored tonight too, it's peaked my interest with my need for a forward 7.9 or less. But then Jovetic. It's quite the pickle...

The best gif of all time (well second best, the same gif with "I fingered a lass today - have you?" as the caption trumps it).

Another one here for the Jovetic bandwagon. Took a minus 4 hazard and Fletcher out Marney and Jovetic in. Marney will now be my cheap non playing sub in a 3 4 3 so this move should help me delay my wildcard and move towards a big front 3. Will only be keeping Jovetic 1 wk and will upgrade him to either ade sturridge or Aguero for next gw.

Do that 4 on the Jovetic wagon then? I feel like I did wrong last night, hope it works out tbh.

Bet Pellegrini trolls us all and leaves him on the bench.

Who have people transferred out for Aguero?

I have the funds to upgrade Rooney or Costa but I'm reluctant to swap out either.

No rush, Rooney has good fixture and Aguero is still finding fitness, a few weeks to decide.

Relax. We got our first price rise in last night, it's all going according to plan.

I know you're gonna have a very strong team still but that -4 sounds good to me. Now I just have to pray that Dzeko gets a clean bill of health.

Got Jovetic with one of my FT's, expect a 2nd rise after this

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/aug/26/arsenal-striker-reinforcement-olivier-giroud

Giroud still owned by 540k people - 144k transfers out this week, with Jovetic on +156k for the week.

She has a lot of away fixtures lined up when you're at home.

You might want to rethink that one bud.

That explains the lack of clean sheets!

Your looking good for the win 4 pts up already and the added boost of a wildcard. As a fellow stone roses fan I wont begrudge you an opening win .

I'm on -8 already because I'm an idiot at 1am, if I use my wildcard now to go all out do I still lose the 8 points?

No. All transfers in the week are free.

Liam2012

Weekly transfer done last night. Had to dump Hoilett before a price fall and got in Cattermole before his rise. Money saving exercise for a bench player. I usually wait until Friday night but needed to keep the finances up.

Still not too happy with my defence but no need to panic yet. I had a slow enough start last year but made up a 75 point deficit by keeping my WC until DGW in last quarter of the season.

Krul (Elliot)
Chambers P Jones Clyne (Pieters Baird)
Siggy Mata Fab Eriksen (Cattermole)
Rooney (c) Sturridge Dzeko

In the next few weeks I can see Chambers and Baird definitely being transferred. Eriksen and all my forwards are on thin ice too. Too early to completely tear it apart though.

Team value £100.0m Bank £0.4m

Want2know

Can anyone suggest a replacement for Bojan?? I've an extra 2M in the bank so have 7.5M to play with.

I've been thinking about the below but im not sure:

Naismith (5.1) - Is he likely to play 90mins with Everton having signed Eto?
Rivière (7.0) - Newcastle have a good run of fixtures so could bag a few goals??
Pellè (7.5) - Southampton have a good run of fixtures + Pellè has a good goal scoring record?
