    Does anyone else factor in the away fixtures per week your team has? At the mo, all 5 off my defenders are away this weekend. Looking to swap Bert for Clyne, but wouldn't mind a home fixture for a defender. Issue is, the home rotation at the mo does not offer up great cs potential.

    Sigh. Have Sanchez since he was a lad, bought at 10.3 so selling at 10.9, lose 0.5m to transfer him out for probably one match?

    I doubt he'll drop much more than 0.2, 0.3 max so would cost 0.2 to 0.3 to buy back, plus more importantly use up 2 precious transfers. Dunno what to do now!

    As iroced said elsewhere, it would have made sense to sell him before last GW if there had been any indication he'd be out this long, he's already dropped 0.2 so I could have sold (probably for Cazorla) at 10.9 and been looking at buying back for maybe 11.0 so breaking even with Cazorlas rises (not to mention Cazorlas 17 points).

    I don't see why Wenger would risk starting him against Leicester with so many big matches on the horizon. If he doesn't play against Leicester I think he'll be 10.8m or so by the time GW26 rolls around. Similar to the ADM situation when he free fell.

    It's not a great midfield to be honest. Front 8 as follows
    Sanchez, Hazard, Puncheon, Downing, Albrighton, Aguero, Kane, Giroud.

    8.8 itb!!

    I would just play Albrighton or a defender unless you think Silva is worth a -4.

    Yeah, probably need to get rid, just annoying as hell that I stuck with him last week. Its not for -4 but will most likely result in a future -4 due to using up precious transfers.

    Cazorla or Walcott? In Sanchez absence Walcott will probably keep starting you think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,732 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    So many doubts and injuries in my team. Don't know where to start. Any advice would really be welcome. Thanks.

    Panti Heaton

    Cahill Alderweireld PVA Hutton Wasi

    Chadli Sanchez A.Johnson Hazard Silva

    Augero Kane Giroud

    I'd prefer Walcott for the next two unless Welbeck displaces Theo against Leicester for some reason. Santi is the safer choice in terms of ownership if that matters.

    Is it worth doing

    Bert- Demichelis

    Sanchez- Silva

    for a -4?

    Could go to Cazorla or Walcott but away to Spurs this week? If I just got rid of Bertrand my midfield this week would be:

    Di Maria Boyd Hazard Sterling

    Thoughts/opinions please.

    Anyone considering Ozil for Sanchez?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Anyone considering Ozil for Sanchez?

    I am now.

    Not a bad idea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat


    Got Fab and Sanchez. If Fab is injured for two games might transfer, but don't really want to take a hit.

    I think people should carefully consider transferring Sanchez out if they have a lot of money tied up in him, he'll have been out for two gameweeks after the NLD and he is the type of player who will be dying to play in the Leicester game

    Walcott should be on people's radar, he has a good record in the NLD games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,410 ✭✭✭✭km79


    lovely. theo shud start. Saturday now and hopefully cement his place. if not I'll see the arsenal team before deadline Tuesday and may won Sanchez for the first time this season at a more affordable price than the 11.5 I so nearly paid for him with my wildcard. i d be angry right now if I had !
    now to decide whether to bring in Silva for Johnson or even Boyd or bank it.
    I may well bank yet

    On the whole Aresnal V Spurs high scoring thing. Looking at the facts, something of a myth.

    Records are here.

    Some stats of note:

    Last 4 PL meetings averaged 1.75 goals per game.

    Going back before that to 2012 there were two 5-2 results which is probably what creates the high scoring perception, but last 4 results have been 1-1, 0-1, 1-0, 2-1

    Scorers wise, in the recent 4 games scorers were Arsenal: Rosicky, Mert, Giroud; Spurs: Chadli, Bale, Lennon.

    The two 5-2 games were at the Emirates, Arsenal scorers were Walcott (3), Sagna, RVP, Rosicky, Podolski, Giroud, Cazorla, Mert (1 each)

    Arsenal have scored 1 goal on 4 of their last 6 PL visits to WHL. The scored 0 one time and three in 2011 (Walcott, RVP, Nasri)

    I think i'll hold sanchez I have him since 10.3 and because I've a strong front 8 I can go with
    Silva Ramsey adm hazard
    Aguero ings Kane and bench sanchez.
    If he doesn't start v Leicester ill sell and will have 2 transfers. I want to upgrade ings then anyway as his fixtures take a nasty turn.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,272 ✭✭✭G1032


    Anyone considering Ozil for Sanchez?

    Yes! Doubt I'll do it but if I do transfer Sanchez out if won't be for Silva now that I've had a while to think about it.
    Ozil or Walcott. I'd probably go for Walcott in the end though. Horses for courses and all that.

    Hmmm. Food for thought
    I though Walcott had a much better record than that.
    Oh well. It's not going to be a good week is it?

    Whether winning or not though, QPR are far from tight at the back.
    Yeah. But if you look at it in detail, their last 5 at home read 2 CS, 2 "-1" (2 goals conceded) and 1 2-pointer (1 goal conceded). Considering the original discussion was around Yun (a £3.9m def) this is not that bad. The 2 CS came from Burnley & Palace when you'd expect them. One of the "-1" was MU when you'd be benching him, the other one was WB (fail) and the 2-pointer was swansea (Okish).

    If you compare him with Wasi & Baird.
    • Wasi last 5 home games read 1 CS, 2 "-1" and 2 2-pointer and 1 YC. 2 pts home to City and the 1-pointers home to Pool & Spurs are OK but 1 pt home to Stoke is a big let down. His away CS and away goal to United are of little use since you'd have more than probably benched him.

    • Baird last 5 home games read 1 CS and 1 "-1" (benched for the other 3 games). If he was not benched it'd read 2 CS (Hull & Villa) and 3 "-1" (WH = disappointing, MU & Spurs more expected).
    To conclude, not that I particularly want to defend QPR defensive home prospects but I think Yun @ £3.9m is potentially a better option than Wasi & Baird. He has 2 home games for DGW28 (though tough enough ones) so as a 5th def using very little cash he's as good as any I'd say ;).

    Right, I'm possibly mad but I'm considering holding Bertrand through the ban.

    The only alternative I'd likely be going for is Alderweireld, who I was considering downgrading to at some stage anyway to save 1m. But the 1m doesn't make a huge difference to the structure of my team. I can afford Studge, Aguero and Giroud plus 3 big (Sanchez/Haz/ADM) mids and one 6m ish mid (currently AJ). Not much to be gained upping the budget for that 4th mid to 7m as far as I can see.

    Meanwhile Bertrand looked really really good attacking wise against Swansea in the highlights, I'm starting to think he might be worth the 1m over Alder.
    If he was available I'd most probably be playing him every week for the next three, however I wouldn't be that confident of a CS away to QPR this week, WHU and Liverpool at home after are not gifts either. This week I'm stretched and probably have to play Bellerin at Spurs unless Baird makes a triumphant return for WBA. But next week my three alternatives are PVA (QPR h), Bellerin (Leicester h & hoping he wont be rotated admittedly) and Terry (Everton h), while for the third week of the suspension I have Palace (a) WBA (h) and Burnley (h) for the above three.

    So unless I really really want to free up that extra 1m I think saving a precious transfer for the Blank and DGW could be the way to go. Anybody care to disagree?

    You kind of made me change my mind on him now :P. If he looks like dropping again I'll probably sell him though...
    "on Alexis...
    The latest is that Alexis is not ready. He is not far away, the Leicester game is a possibility. He is of course very difficult to keep quiet! He is training but it's light training."

    I guess I'm doing Sanchez to Silva then......

    Yeah I'm now annoyed I didn't kept Silva and ditched Sanchez during my WC. I really assumed without making detailed research he was going to be missing just 1 game. I don't know if I've been careless or if it's just hindsight talking now but I really regret it.

    It's tougher to decide now (can sell for £10.9m - and yeah I'm wary of any little £0.1m now that Sturridge's back) since I can't really see him drop that much but if he's not fully fit for Leicester it's true that Wenger could preserve him but we'll need the Alsacian to openly state it so that panick runs down FPL and everyone sells :pac: !
    I don't see why Wenger would risk starting him against Leicester with so many big matches on the horizon. If he doesn't play against Leicester I think he'll be 10.8m or so by the time GW26 rolls around. Similar to the ADM situation when he free fell.
    I agree about Wenger not risking him but to see him drop all the way down to £10.8m is stretching it don't you think?

    If I translate that into simpler English and considering my front 8 is Hazard Sanchez ADM Cazorla Lucas / Aguero Kane Giroud, you're telling (me) to get Silva in for Sanchez right :P :pac:?

    It certainly made me reconsider the necessity of going for another Arsenal player for Sanchez if selling him for possibly one week.

    Silva has three good fixtures now, Hull (h) Stoke (a) and Newcastle (h)

    Arsenal have Leicester (h) after Spurs obviously then Palace (a)

    Sanchez to Silva now, then ADM to Sanchez in 2 weeks could be an option.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,410 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Adam Johnson will be touch and go according to poyet
    easy decision now
    johnson to Silva and then maybe pelle to giroud for the tuesday game ......

    Walcott has only scored once in the league at WHL, and I think its back about 2011.

    Depends how many get rid before Spurs. I think he'll definitely drop tomorrow night and then Sat night which brings him to 11.1m. There's then a fortnight before GW26.

    Rogers on Sturridge starting against Everton "We'll see".

    My head hurts. If I was to sum up what I'm thinking at this stage it would be pretty much...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    Sanchez out to Silva so.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,915 ✭✭✭✭menoscemo


    Sanchez to Silva for me too. If I sell now I'll get 11m for him so I'll hopefully be able to get him back without losing too much. Annoyed I didn't get rid of him in the Wildcard now tbh....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,887 ✭✭✭Bleating Lamb


    Current WC midfield I have is Hazard,Sanchez,Silva, Cazorla and Amoebi.
    If I sell Sanchez today I will get 11.1m.

    Who would you swop him out for on a two wk punt?...Have 3 Chelsea players,no Man Utd,one Spurs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,272 ✭✭✭G1032


    My main rival definitely stole a march on me with his WC. He sold Sanchez for Santi.

    Since we I have Aguero I don't really want Silva. I have Giroud which might be enough Arsenal cover for the NLD.

    I'm just going around in circles now. Fcuk this anyway. I just don't know what to do. Bertie sold already. Replacement for Sanchez is going to need 6 points to break even.

    I think I have to forget about team value now. Let Sanchez drop and reassess before Leicester.

    ADM? Not that he's on super form but United scored 3 at the week-end. He's apparently getting sharper. I don't know where he played but on potential only he should return points. And you'll lose very little to get Sanchez back. You actually could get him in cheaper than you'll sell it for.

    I don't want to force you into a -4 but Silva home to Hull (and his next fixtures in general) and considering his recent form has to be considered. Granted you have Aguero but if it works again like last week-end that's grand :D.

    I guess it also depends upon the rest of your midfield. Hazard Downing and Puncheon if I remember correctly? Who's the 5th one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    I've Bertrand suspended and Sanchez injured.

    Can do Ivanovic and Cazorla for the two for my two FTs.

    Thoughts?

    Current team is:
    Foster (Guzan)

    Wisdom Terry Wasi Bertrand (Cameron)

    Sanchez Silva Hazard Chadli (Fer)

    Aguero Austin Ings
