    I'm banking too. I'm not even tempted by any transfers.

    I can do it I know I can do it. Benteke does look very tempting though :confused::confused:

    Anyone know if Lukaku will be dropped for Kone?

    Can't see it happening yet. Stranger things have happened though.

    He could be good but I'm happy enough with Rooney Kane and Sakho for this week at least.

    Just looked in on this thread for the first time, is it me or is this place much busier than previously???
    I'm looking at banking the transfer this week to facilitate the Aguero and possibly Sanchez arrivals for week three with a 4 point hit.
    I'll hang onto Theo for the meantime and hope that he can put some points on the board to arrest the slide, I won't be gambling by transferring him out on Friday night when so much could happen to damage my team in 8 days.
    I still prefer Sterling to Silva for the moment, he wasn't good against WBA but he's certainly going to come good IMO and he's value for the 1m price difference I think.

    Wow yeh page 11 does seem a hell of a lot more than we saw last season and its a shorter week than normal! I guess its Aguero/Walcott/Wildcarders causing it.

    Sticking with this forward line too. It was a 50/50 decision for me last week to bring in kane or benteke, and on the evidence of benteke's 90 mins against stoke, I see no reason that i made the wrong decision

    This is what people have been at every day since Saturday, trying to "fix" their teams, it's no wonder this thread is busy!

    My hope is to have Aguero for the Everton game. I've already freed up 3.5 mil by downgrading Walcott to Mahrez so I have enough to go Rooney - Aguero whenever I like.

    Everton were shocking last week against Watford so Kun could have a field day. I think he has a decent record against Everton too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,664 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    If Silva stays playing the wandering central position behind Aguero he will return more points than last year.

    I'm pretty keen to get him,Sanchez and Aguero into a team without a wildcard hopefully.

    if i do hazard to chadli it gives me 4.5 so i could do benteke to aguero next week rather than the previous plan. What do you think of selling hazard?

    It's not something I'm planning myself but I can see your reasoning. I'm not exactly happy about selling Rooney which is why I have thought about Ivan to a 4 mil defender and that leaves me with enough to go Sakho to Aguero.

    I wouldn't have Aguero for GW3 then though, unless I take a 4 point hit.

    I wouldn't be happy to take Benteke out if I were you until you see how he does Monday night. MOTD2 showed that he looked sharp enough against Stoke. Liverpool just weren't getting the ball to him.

    Even if he does he isn't great value as you are never going to captain him unless you plan on going without Aguero and a 10m player who is never captain just isn't good value for your team.

    Penalties and massive ownership are the only reasons i'd hold him. If he puts a big score up he will do serious damage to your ranking if you don't have him.

    He didn't look great against Swansea though. If he lost penalty duties he would be out on his arse for Sanchez or Silva.

    I cant see him being massively captained the next few weeks which helps his best fixture is gw 4 home to palace but city play watford at home.

    That's the problem, 11.5m is too much for someone who is not a valid captaincy option. I'm tempted to get rid of him myself but i fear the damage he could do if i don't have him.

    Liverpool played without a quality DM. If a team presses them like Stoke did, Benteke will be starved, but if they can get their possession game going, Benteke could be big points. A lot of ifs and buts, but worth keeping an eye on.

    With him not being captained widely then the value you get from where you use those additional funds should cover him unless he goes on a big run of scoring 30+ over the next 4 which given the fixtures doesn't seem that likely. Looking at it now I am not sure why I started with Hazard I wish I had held off!

    I started with him because he was a great captain option for gw1 and could've seriously damaged those without. Also due to doubts over aguero sanchez and Costa there was nowhere else to put ur money.
