I'll Simplify, Courtouis or Azpilicueta? Do i need chelsea cover defensively?

Azpi's probably got his one goal for the season out of the way and he's not great for assists (4 over the last two seasons), so I'd definitely opt for Courtois - cheaper, less likely to get booked, more likely to get additional points through saves. There's always the chance he'll miss a few games like last season, but since it's Begovic rather than Cech who's waiting in the wings I think it's less likely.

Ruiney and mata out: wilson and pedro in

Are you planning on holding the wildcard for a while?

Hoping to try and hold it until December and around Xmas. I've had a decent start compared to others so I don't mind taking some hits to straighten out team.

The in form players should have changed by then so it'll be handy to have it available to get the team setup for the Xmas period.

Azpilicueta and Depay out.

Sagna and Pedro in.

Going purely on form I'm happy to go from Chelsea defence/United attack to City defence/Chelsea attack. Took a -4 to do it but as a double they cost the same. Pedro really excites me as a potential points machine.

Ya, he jumped out at me last weekend. He's in my team but I would have more faith in Arsenal coming good sooner than United.

Things may change this week if United sign a striker. At the minute they should even take Charlie Austin if they need to! Ed Woodward has to be doing his best scouring Europe to try and get someone.

Like I said on the price changes thread, I don't see the love for Depay. In 23% of teams yet hasn't delivered a goal or assist and two of his games were against relegation candidates.

8.5 is too much IMO for a player that is adjusting to the League. Kagawa for example had good stats from a better League than the Dutch League and never succeeded at United. I was stung by him when he initially arrived and won't be caught again.

Bump!

Sakho to Wilson and Payet to Pedro? Benteke has looked decent alright but I wouldn't rush to get him in. Liverpool haven't clicked attacking yet.

Exactly, Depay could easily become the greatest player ever FPL wise but so far he has only delivered 3 points per game.

WC active, brought in Pedro for Hazard, Aguero for Rooney, Memphis for Sterling, Wilson for Sakho.



Could definitely do something with the bench, I have 0.9m in the bank.

Very like my own team. Why have Flapianski when Courtois will play every week? I'd leave the bench alone and change Fab to a 4.0 'keeper and change Yaya to Silva if you have enough.

You also have Courtois to cover Chelsea so why not change Azpi to a Unired defender? I have Shaw myself because I got him at 5.5 but a lot of people favour Darmian.

Other than that, I would leave as is if you're sure about Depay. I've said my own piece on him above.

I have my heart set on Benteke his next 4 games look good including West Ham, Norwich & Villa at home, Pedro I feel I need to get Chelsea coverage in, I have nothing at the minute. If only I could do it in 2 transfers aaaaaaaaaaaargh, I'll see nearer the deadline, decisions decisions.

patmac

Courtois,Ramsey,Gomis
Or
Mig, Silva,Wilson?

Brought in Darmian and Shaw for Ivanovic and O'Shea. Chelsea look brutal at the back so far, I'm shocked!

Looking at bringing in Gomis for Pelle next but I'll see how things pan out. I may cave in and get Mahrez.

Since Ferguson stepped down I'm struggling to think of a utd attacking player that has been worth owning apart from.ADM in his purple patch last year. I've wildcarded for rvp twice and got burnt. Rooney was a supposed must have the past 2 seasons. Mata when he signed. People got caught with Falcao. Even januzaj created a bit of a fuss a couple of yrs back.

eh i dunno

Rooney, kane, lescott out. Aguero, Wilson, Clyne in. Yay or nay?

Makes sense, although maybe not clyne. Sagna or kolarov?

Have kompany already. Liverpool have decent fixtures coming up.

Would most be saving the triple points for captain for a double gw?

Deco99

Right, I'm nearly there bar injuries or other developments


Courtouis (Maccarthy)

Gomez - Shaw - Sagna ( Steven Taylor, Russel Martin)

Silva - Sanchez - Mahrez - Pedro (Morrison 4.9m for a playing midfielder)

Aguero - Gomis - Wilson

0.3m in bank

I;m going to ride the silva train over Yaya, I'm on Wildcard so can make adjustments.

Nothing has happened yet. I'd hold tight and see. I think he has a decent chance if, and that's a big if, a move goes through.

Agreed, wont play every game, how much is he and is there better value elsewhere in defence is the question

I have him on the bench anyway for the time being, more or likley chances is that he wont start the next match if he does stay around for that long

Damn it I really want Pedro now. Depay + Bellerin --> Pedro + Francis (-4) is tempting.

I've done this. Bellerin with a lucky cleanie helped pay for the hit.

Fabregas out, Yaya in.

Yaya or Silva?

Fabianski is a good backup for me, he's even got me a clean sheet when Courtois was suspended. I think I'll stick with him for the moment.

Azpi has more attacking potential than any of the United defenders right now. I might change to a United defender when the fixtures suit better.

Depay is my crap-shoot. He could pay off, or I could be offloading him in a few weeks ruing lost points.

Most would feel that much for a gk you'll bench almost every week is a serious waste of budget which could be getting you points elsewhere.

True but I'm happy enough with it for now.

eagle eye

Morrison at 4.9 is a must have imo. Two goal haul, along with a missed peno, against Chelsea and a nice fixture list over the next eight gameweeks.

Home games: Southampton, Everton, Sunderland, Leicester

Away games: Stoke, Villa, Palace, Norwich
