    Have Pedro myself and having seen Mourinho's interview & talking about rotation to find stability I can see Pedro not playing (same as busts said)

    In a dilemma now to transfer him for KDB.

    Which one would you bench from Ayew (H-Spurs), Mane(A-Chelsea) or Ighalo(A-Bournemouth)?

    I'm benching Ighalo out of Ayew and Ighalo and I think I'd do the same if i had Mane.

    Any thoughts on this lads.

    Going Wilson to Vardy will leave me with 9.6 for Yayas replacement, My first point hit of the season :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Thinking hard on Mata in for Yaya to take me to -8.

    Yaya on the chopping block before he got injured really.

    Form over fixtures with both Mata and United. Away to Everton next week could be a good enough fixture with their unsettled defence. Anything can happen in the derby and then it a great wee run. Arsenal are not exactly a model of defensive organisation atm either.

    As i have Hazard and Sanchez it would mean deciding to go with no City mid for a while, until such time as one of them makes way for Silva or KdB. Something I've been considering anyway.

    With Gomes to shift a move on yaya next week would be for -4 anyway.

    Really not keen on starting Westwood.

    if your choice was to sell yaya for -4 or play igahlo what would ya do?
    I have 1ml in the bank so would not have enough for KDB
    have mata Sanchez mahrez payet
    I'm thinking play igahlo and reassess next week ?

    I'd play Ighalo pretty certain.

    Westwood is good to have on the bench for an unexpected sub in, but never really wanting to have to start him. Ighalo is a very viable starter with a decent fixture this week.

    Shifted two this week

    Darmian to Dier
    Sako to Wanyama

    2.8 ITB so loads I can do going forward.

    A new keeper plus replacing Muneisa are my next two transfers.

    KDB, Payet, Mahrez, Sanchez is a decent midfield.

    Aguero, Igahlo and Marital up front.

    Kolarov, Dier ,Evans, Souare and Muneisa.

    Can't see anything bar Muneisa and McCarthy that needs fixing

    how much have you in the bank you could move to a strong front 8 and keep yaya. If yaya is fit for bournemouth he would be a good one to have.

    yeah I'm going to do that cos the only option really for yaya is sterling!
    and just realises the int break is up next so hopefully yaya back after as I'd like to keep him

    Only 1.2. 5.7 budget to switch Westwood.

    Want to free up cash for my forward line future upgrades if anything.

    Can also play Russell Martin and hope he gets a goal v Leicester. But he only scores when benched.

    Wait a minute! Bench Martin first sub so when he scores he comes in for Yaya!! Genius! :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    start
    1 pedro or ayew
    2 martin or moreno


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,671 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Serious knee jerking being done on Yaya imo. International break coming up followed by Bournemouth, I'll leave him sit on my bench for a week for that gladly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,127 ✭✭✭NabyLadistheman


    Why Sterling so close to drop? Was thinking of getting him in for yaya

    A minus 4 this week -20 last week?

    I can see the merit in getting in Dier .. I took a minus 4 for him myself last week but getting rid of Darmian?


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,148 ✭✭✭✭km79


    start
    1 pedro or ayew
    2 martin or moreno
    1 ayew
    2. tough but go with home defender I suppose


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    start

    2 martin or moreno

    Both tough calls. Coin tosses really.

    Pedro serious risk of a 1 pointer but could easily start and score or sub in a score. Neither him or Ayew on form the last few games.

    Martin clean sheet would be a miracle. Can't see a Liverpool one either. Probably slightly lean towards Moreno for his mad attacking skilz and probably slightly better odds for the cs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,148 ✭✭✭✭km79


    have a toughish choice myself
    play darmian or nyom
    if I play darmian I'll have 3 in that game (Sanchez mata)
    if I play nyom I'll have 3 in that game ( Francis igahlo)
    think both gamea could be low scoring ........
    maybe I should play both defenders and bench igahlo :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    So I already made 3 transfer (-8) and need to deal with Yaya now.

    I either play Westwood (Stoke at home) or DeLaet (Norwich away).

    The only alternative is Sterling in, can't afford DeBruyne.

    Would you go for it, or leave it and see what happens during international break?

    I think I'm gonna sit tight. Yaya will have the honour of being the first fecker I've had to hold through a drop that mattered to my resale.

    Now...

    1. Martin home to Leicester
    or
    2. Westwood home to stoke

    Westwood with Stoke to concede from one of his corners maybe?

    I'd play Westwood out of those options.

    I've gone Wilson to Berahino with my FT giving me:

    Guzan (Gomes)
    Kolarov Dawson Martin (Muniesa) (Gomez)
    Sanchez Mahrez Ayew Payet (Westwood)
    Aguero Berahino Pellé

    50/50 on who to start in goals so just went with the bookies odds. GK and DEF needs addressing soon. Have the funds for Ayew to KDB or Mata so may give that a look in the morning.


  • Registered Users Posts: 245 ✭✭Artfu1Dodger


    Tough choice this week.
    Who to drop from my front 8 this week. Diouf, Ayew or Kouyate?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,238 ✭✭✭shano_88


    Already have Vardy starting and Im between Redmond and Mahrez for my last starting spot.

    Leaning towards Redmond. Didnt start last week but came on, played well and scored a goal. Thoughts?

    Why would you bench Mahrez. He is in great form.

    Is Walcott too risky as a Yaya replacement? Not convinced by Sterling and Mata has horrible fixtures

    We all know what he can do when he plays, but the problem is he could be dropped at any time, and imo he is not worth that risk

    Yeah I know, it's just it's a real high risk high reward kinda thing. Need to make my transfer before the drop. Even looking at Lamela :rolleyes:

    True.

    Im along the line of thinking of going with Redmond to diversify a bit and have some coverage from both sides in a game that either side could dominate.

    Ill sleep on it!

    It's so frustrating. If he was nailed on he would be the first name on my teamsheet. After what he did to me at the start of the season I don't think I can ever trust him again:rolleyes:
