    Just about made my changes before the price changes! Was panicking like mad, and abnormally atrocious internet didn't help.

    Completely took my eye off the ball and have taken price drops on Ayew, Wilson and Gomez. Didn't expect Ayew to drop with 2 decent Homes coming up.

    Team is:
    Cech-McCarthy
    Shaw-Gomez-Targett-Kolarov-Naughton
    Mahrez-Ayew-Pedro-Sinclair-Payet
    Wilson-Martial-Aguero

    What should I do?
    Just take a -8 or -12 and rip the team?

    I really want KdB in also though.

    Who would be good replacements for Shaw/Wilson?

    not much value in the 5.7m forwards.

    A West Brom defender for Shaw would be my pick.
    Ighalo is decent value although if you can afford Vardy he's probably the better option.

    I can go Ighalo/Evans

    Or Vardy and a 4.0m def.

    Browning maybe? Any other 4m defs that play?
    Might just go AOA for this GW.

    Coleman is back so Browning won't be any use. I'd definitely go with Vardy over Ighalo by an absolute mile though.

    I'll have to compromise to get Vardy in so I'll just get in Browning as other 4m defs aren't playing either and may drop.

    Going to go with AOA
    Cech
    Kolarov Naughton
    KdB Mahrez Ayew Pedro Payet
    Martial Vardy Aguero

    Targett Browning Gomez

    I don't really understand how you can only afford a 4.0 defender..
    Shaw(5.5) and Wilson(5.9) gives you 11.4 to play with.
    Vardy is 6.5 so you should have 4.9 left (enough for Evans)

    I am budgeting for KdB also.
    Might be a stupid tactic but they are playing Newcastle and too many rivals have him. I can see him easily outscoring any defender.

    I only have 10.5 left for a Striker and a Def

    Im sorry but this is a crazy strategy you are taking a -4 to get in a non playing defender. Next week you will also only have 2 playing defenders so chances are that's going to be another hit you will take. All in you are looking at a 12 pt hit for KDB and chances are you wont captain him. If you really want KDB your best choice is Pedro and Shaw to KDB and a playing defender. That leaves you with 3 playing defenders and a decent front 7. Next week take out Wilson. I personally wouldn't take out pedro but that's a different argument.

    Crazy like a fox!!! :P

    Yeah I realize its a bit silly but I've got to the stage where I need to just gamble now. these 30 point weeks are crippling me.
    I didn't want to take Pedro out as he has 2 nice fixtures but might have to.
    Next week I would have taken another -4 yeah but KdB would be a season keeper.

    I guess I should just leave the Wilson-Vardy transfer for now also.
    just these crazy price rises/drops are wrecking my TV.

    Wilson -> Sakho

    Luckily had a bit of coin lying around, 2 in 2 for Sakho and like his fixtures.

    @lougal
    Think these should be your only transfers as well.
    You will then have the International break to further evaluate.

    Can someone give me the lowdown on Diouf at Stoke? Thinking of bringing him in for Wilson. Giving the Vardy bandwagon a miss & I like the look of Stokes fixtures. Anybody have him or seen him play?

    I was also considering him, but the Vardy bandwagon is too hard to ignore. I had Diouf before his injury though, and he had good returns for me. They've got lots of playmaking potential though with Bojan and Shaqiri, so I'd expect a fair few chances opening up for Diouf.

    How about Ayew. :P

    Joking aside, 3 of his next 4 fixtures are at home. I got rid of him this week for Dimitri Payet, but I think I may end up regretting that move yet.

    I need to move him on at some stage.

    More immediate concerns for the minute.

    It depends on who you have but you're probably better off keeping him.
    You could switch to Barkley when the fixtures turn.

    re. Ayew, I played my wildcard last week so have Payet, Mahrez, KDB and Fletcher.

    I'm looking at Walcott, maybe after the Man U game, have no Arsenal cover at all and he's finding a bit of form since he's been handed starts.
