    A. King, valdes, Bailly and PVA
    Or
    B. Sane Hennessy Gibson and holgate

    On wildcard

    I'm on WC now as well and juggling the same group of players (except forum favourite PVA).

    I had Valdes in a couple of drafts but discovered that by getting Pickford instead I could upgrade Mee to Bailly.

    Anyway, fwiw I'd go with option B above if those are your final choices

    Yeah i keep coming back to my original WC team all the time. I'm happy with it. Have good team value and I'm chasing a 60 points lead so felt like i needed to pull the trigger this week

    Actually hadn't realised PVA was back fit this week....back to my worn out drawing board :-)

    PVA fit....Is Mr. Prodson celebrating?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭Benimar


    I was all set on a -4 to do Sanchez and Origi to Zaha and Kane.

    Once the DGWs were announced, I changed to Siggy to Zaha for free.

    Now I'm thinking of banking! I'm thinking 2FTs going into a DGW might be more beneficial.

    Any views?

    Will he come straight back into the team though? Hard to drop anyone after that great win against arsenal last week. That's what's putting me off getting him this week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,530 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Llorente to benteke for -4 ?????
    Also playing siggy and zaha

    He's concerned about how both PVA and Spacecraft will feature over the coming weeks and the lack of clarity on the situation.

    Having said that, the champagne has been acquired. I do have an ice bucket. Plus there is ice ready to go in the freezer.

    Yeah....and Palaces DGW aren't great from a defensive point of view. Bavies is the same price so he's in for me now until I change my mind in another 15 mins :-)

    More and more tempted to not transfer this GW, keep my my two free transfers, using just one of them for Aguero to Ibra for GW34, and try and save them for GW36/7. Just can't see any other season keeper for this weekend to bring in.

    Not transfer related but...

    Should I start Pieters (Hull) over Valencia (Chelsea) ???
    Better chance of CS and doubts over if Val will start

    Shall I bring the champagne?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,714 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I'd say Pieters because the 1 point risk of Valencia is huge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    A boring Nyom to Holgate

    It'll set you up with Benteke for the DGW and can use next week's transfer for a different player. On the other hand, if Llorente is fit, I can see him and Siggy doing well

    Siggy is causing me a dilemma. Reluctant to get rid of him for Zaha to allow me upgrade Costa to Kane also for no hit. Just feel with Llorente back & a decent looking fixture against a disinterested Watford, he could shine. No other realistic way of getting Kane or Zaha in. Siggy love too much? Top 400 outright currently so hard to know what is the safe play. Any advice appreciated.

    Post your squad please and let us know what's itb and when your gonna use your WC and other chips.

    Valencia is causing me some issues, looks like he won't play both games on the dgw plus I'm not even sure he will.play vs Chelsea.

    As I'm already on -4 is it worth getting rid?

    I'd hold him. Their not through to the semi yet.

    Thins is the crux of my problem
    If siggy does score well it's likely to involve llorente so I'd be laughing if I held both
    If he doesn't do well neither will llorente :(
    If it wasn't a -4 I'd do it for sure but i am tempted to hold off a week
    Benteke was very impressive Monday night though despite getting only 2 points

    With Chambers on my bench I'm in trouble if Valencia is rested again.

    I've Cedric only to sub in...
    I think he'll start going by the "I'd be killed..." comments by Jose.
    Clean sheets look few and far between this week imo.

    I'm fairly confident Valencia will start this weekend
    And probably Thursday night
    He is then CERTAIN to be rested against Burnley
    Unless his rest comes thursday night ......

    Yeah you are bang on regarding CS this week, even of I went for it options are limited.

    Bank the hit it is then!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Apologies to anyone that got benteke in as I've just done Carroll to benteke. 50% chance he will now be injured by tomorrow night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭pimpmyhat


    Wildcard done

    hennessy/pickford

    Holgate/vertonghen/stephens/bailly/barraghan

    alli/zaha/king/sanchez/siggy

    benteke/lukaku/kane

    3.3 in the bank.

    Ibra for lukaku gw 34 leaves me with 6dgw players.
    its likely gabbiadini will come in for benteke gw 36

    All opinions appreciated and considered


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,029 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    Looking like King will be my first sub again - :(

    Son, Ali, Hazard, Zaha, Lukaku, Aguero, Benteke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,944 ✭✭✭✭ArmaniJeanss


    2FT, Sanchez & Grosicki to Zaha & Hazard done at start of week.

    Mulling over McAuley to Bavies for a minus 4. Any reason to be wary, likely to lose his place short term to returnees or suchlike?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Vardy -> Benteke

    Still have an FT but at this stage I think I'll hold fire on anything else. Too much uncertainty over Kane, PVA and Townsend!

    I'm benching king for the first time this week

    Looking at next week i may have to bench Sanchez if he doesn't do anything this week!

    Can't shake the llorente to benteke for -4 move ..........Be annoyed if i didn't don't it and Big Ben delivers BUT after all the weeks of nothing from llorente I'd probably be more disappointed to miss out on any points he was to get
