    Sanchez       eve, mci WBA, CRY
    KDB           WAT, ARS, hul, liv
    Hazard       sun, cry, BOU, STK

    Am I mad to even consider taking out a must-have?
    KDB isn't worth his fee, playing nowhere near as good as last season and there is nothing to suggest an upturn to his form. His fixtures aren't much better than Arsenal's

    [font=PremierSans-Regular, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif]Iheanacho [/font]Firminio out 

    Mane Carroll In


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,827 ✭✭✭AnneFrank


    i have iheanacho and gambled on him as my captain last week,
    that went well, will give him this game week to prove himself.
    You'd have to blame the moaning buddah for not training his players to tackle !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,455 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Chadli >Zaha I'm definitely doing.

    Austin to either Iheanacho or Defoe

    Means Williams gets to stay another week.

    Capoue to Antonio,

    Firmino gets another chance...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    It's either Firmino to Payet, Allen to Zaha or Kone to Phil Jones. Given the unpredictability of Firmino, the recent crapness of W Ham, the who-knows-what of Palace, and the fact that Kone is stinking out my team the most, it's probably option 3.

    It looks like we're in a small and understandable minority but I can't get KDB out of my fpl head.
    Form isn't great but we all know how he does without Kun and the Leicester game was exactly what I was hoping for... to keep under the radar but the show signs of encouragement.
    Positionally and influence on the team he ticked the boxes bar them being poor overall.

    My front line is
    Hazard, Sanchez, Mané, Siggy, Pedro
    Kane, Bentekkers, (Anichebe)
    With 2.4 itb

    I'm just short of Pedro to KDB which would have been ideal.

    I would only consider Sanchez out if I was confident of Theo nearly matching him. This would allow Pedro to KDB with some change. But getting rid of Sanchez is a bold move, borderline crazy... OK, it's crazy.

    I could just do Hazard to KDB and have Pedro as some kind of backup. But Costaless and Hazardless is another bold move.

    I'm hoping Mané gets injured or suspended in the next 24 hours as that would enable a straight switch. I've had my fun with him by now.

    I've no intention of getting rid of Siggy, Benteke or Kane so I can't see many other options and a budget defence means there's no room for manoeuvre.

    I also want Vardy and Payet :)










    So this week's transfer will probably be:
    Holebas to Phil Jones

    I could just do Pedro to Payet and put the KDB thing to bed.

    Jeez, spending way too much time daydreaming about transfers today.

    Not convinced by any of the potential Firmino replacements (Payet, Zara mainly)....after watching MOTD2 there and Pogba now on my radar but anywhere I've checked it seems he's on 5 yellows (?).....has he already served a ban with a League Cup booking or am I missing something really obvious.

    Anyway, I'll either bank, do Firmino to Pogba or Foster to DDG. Man United's fixtures are too good even for a Liverpool fan to ignore

    He served it in the League Cup against West Ham, on 6 yellows after yesterday

    So I have a front five of:
    Sanchez
    Firmino
    Eriksen
    Siggy
    De Roon

    Costa
    Nacho
    Kane

    Am 0.1 away from upgrading Firmino to Payet. Is it madness to look at Sanchez->Payet, with Hazard coming in for Firmino in two weeks?

    What an absolute head f**k


    Edit: Alternatively could move out Heaton for AN Other and a -4pt hit and do Firmino ->Payet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    I reckon I have figured our the Firmino problem. He just needs to put that ridiculous top knot back in his hair. Hardly recognised him on MOTD...

    Thinking of going for Eriksen in for Mane?

    Next two matches for both....

    Eriksen : Hull (h) Burnley (h)

    Mane : Boro (A) Everton (A)

    Thoughts?

    Literally about to post something similar as I have Firmino.

    Mané looks the best of Liverpools attackers, if they score, he'll be involved.

    Although they were terrible yesterday, Spurs could destroy Hull. Already have Kane (C) and need a differential, think I might do it....

    I also have Kane too, I'm surprised that nobody on here seems to be talking about Eriksen that's giving me some doubts, some love for Alli though I have noticed, I'm not seeing that myself.

    Some love for Alli alright, slightly cheaper too but Eriksen on corners and frees would sway it for me. VERY tempted to do it

    I think Nacho is your biggest issue TBH

    He's there until Aguero is back, i don't get guys ditching him already, he was brought in for a reason, that reasoning still holds valid

    Alli and Eriksen have the same amount of goals this season, while Eriksen has 3 more assists. Eriksen has played 133 minutes more. I don't think that Eriksen is more attractive just because he is on set pieces. Prefer Alli myself for his bigger goal threat plus he was playing very advanced against Swansea.

    Firmino dropping in price tonight. Correct move to bring him out for Payet? Hammers fixtures are just so attractive.

    Not if he gets dropped. Which seem a reasonable probability. Also City are in a bad slump form wise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,455 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Chadli and Austin to Defoe and Zaha done for a - 4

    Lost 0.2 by not doing it yesterday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 644 ✭✭✭Dice75


    Cresswell, Antonio & Alli in to compliment Kane for the next 3 gameweeks.

    Expecting decent Spurs/Hammers returns over Christmas with hopefully little rotation

    My day long pontificating has come down to Payet vs Pogba (to replace Firmino).

    Is bringing in the world's most expensive player considered a punt?? ;-)

    Not convinced by Payet this season, and Pogba is almost 1m cheaper. ManU are surely going to seriously batter someone soon and have easy looking fixtures from now until February (apart from Liverpool).

    Any United fans/watchers care to advise me? Have really only seen them on motd
