    2 Transfers, 0.7 in bank, Myhill and Targett to replace shortly but not this week/

    Midfield of Mahrez, Sanchez, Silva, Anya, Pedro,

    Pedro injured so who do i replace him with in order to leave money for upgrade on Targett.

    Have 3 City players already so not Yaya or sterling.
    Who're you targetting to replace Targett :p? I mean how much you need to downgrade Pedro?

    Short-term you could take a punt on a 'Pool mid. Long-term, one of Ayew or Payet could be worth it. But I'll repeat again about Payet, he's the kind you keep long-term or ignore. You'll have to swallow 2,3 or 4 games with nothing to get the benefit of an explosive return like last Monday. Ayew should be more consistent but he's also unproven at this level (the French league has unfortunately gone down a good bit these last 10-15 years :o).

    The PL is on a downward spiral of late also

    Yeah but compared to Ligue 1 PL is like Champions League football.

    If you exclude PSG and to a lesser extent Monaco, our clubs can't even manage to beat Belgium (Lyon failing to win in Gand the other day while playing a whole half 11 vs 10 and even finishing 11 v 9 but missing a penalty :rolleyes:), Cypriot, Romanian, Ukrainian and even Azeri teams :rolleyes:. I mean no offense to these clubs and countries but we always complain about our lack of financial power compared to the big leagues so what is our excuse when those leagues' clubs knock us out ?! Our football needs a revolution!

    My team:

    Myhill/McCarthy
    Shaw Kolarov Gomez Huth Saylor
    Pedro Sterling Ayew Mahrez Fletcher
    Aguero Benteke Wilson

    I now have Shaw and Pedro missing for this weekend. I am thinking about holding Shaw for the time being and going Pedro to Sanchez. Opinions?

    I also like the risk of Pedro to Walcott. Giroud foolishly got himself sent off last night whereas Walcott scored for the second game in succession. He has also played 69 minutes and 74 minutes in his last two PL games.

    I have the same, Shaw and Pedro,will probably move Shaw for -4, .1 gain on him. With Giroud out for next CL game, good chance he will feature in PL instead of Walcott.

    I'd wait on news of Pedro if it's only a week I'll likely hold. However I already have sanchez.

    I think he was dropped for a while before after a similar situation to what had happened against Zagreb. The fact that he started against DZ probably means that Wenger was thinking of starting Walcott on the weekend as well. I think it's too risky to buy Giroud as he may be subbed on in matches with a dozen minutes left. I could see reason for the reverse, as Walcott looks like scoring everytime he comes onto the pitch. Even if he doesn't start half the games, he could still get you a decent return.

    I see logic in Pedro transfer but if Aguero is fit for weekend, came on as sub in CL, why would you want him out?

    I would then have three city players, which I don't like doing with any team

    Transferring out Aguero because you don't like having 3 players from a team seems pretty crazy even if he hasn't started with a bang yet.

    I'd expect Walcott to start this week it's the next two league games either side of a cl game that I can see giroud get a start in. There is an argument for getting Walcott in knowing he won't start all games and seeing how that works out. He could still give good returns.

    I'd rather hold Pedro and if he still isn't fit next week, get Payet


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,567 ✭✭✭patmac


    Thinking Shaw>Naughton
    Pedro to Sanchez/Ayew/Walcott or hold and save the -4?
    What do you think?

    Move Naughton surely but Pedro is expected fit 26th so hold, unless you're done with him completely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,009 ✭✭✭kronsington


    took the -4 on pedro to sanchez. bit of a gamble after how bad arsenal were last night but whatever. bottled it last week by leaving payet on the bench and not going 2-5-3 and lost ground in my leagues. team as is

    myhill
    darmian richards sagna
    barkely mahrez sanchez toure
    gomis wilson aguero

    payet williams saylor boruc

    thoughts please!

    For the medium term (10 GWish?) which combo do people think will score more Mahrez & Gomis or Wilson & Chadli?

    Mahrez and Gomis all day long.

    Mahrez & Gomis without doubt.

    That was my first thought as well and thought it would be a bit of a margin but FFFix reckon its going to be super tight and FFS RMT even goes as far as Wilson & Chadli outscoring them by a few points. Was surprised at that.

    Bellerin after the Chelsea game. Also might need to change Myhill or Macarthy if that goes south.
    I had a look at Shaquiri's fixtures, they look decent until November. Thoughts?
    I didnt think Coutinho but 3 pool players is a bit much considering they are playing poor, have Benteke and Gomez

    If you have the time and want to gamble, sometimes the 12:45 games have the team released early, if you knew that Walcott was starting then you could transfer him in.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭MaxPower89


    Nay on 3 Liverpool players for sure, look pretty abject from what I've seen.
    Have Shaquiri myself for 2 weeks, no returns but I suspect he will come good over the next while.

    You only have 3 fit defenders and one of them Is Gomez who could be dropped. I'd transfer out Shaw.

    sahko to diouf was the plan
    but then I have to bench one of Sanchez mata ayew yaya or mahrez ...........

    Keep an eye on Boruc re. price fall especially if he fails to record a cs against Sunderland.
    With your strong front 8 you are primed for the AOA chip so decide if and when to use it over the coming weeks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    My 3 transfers (-4) of Huth -> Nyom, Sakho -> Ighalo, Bentaleb -> Mahrez leaves me with the following:

    Myhill
    Bellerin Kolarov Gomez
    Pedro Ozil Yaya Payet Mahrez
    Aguero Benteke

    Hennessy, Ighalo, Targett, Nyom

    Happy with that now, but the WC is still there if any radical changes are needed in the next few weeks.
