GW35 Transfer thread

F1ngers

Randolph and Negredo out for a -4.

KevIRL

Wildcard activated

dahat

Negredo out...-4 as per normal.likely as well

Trimm Trabb

Llorente out (finally) and Gabbiadini in - with Hull (H) followed by 2 DGWs he seems like a must have.

ScummyMan

All Boro players back out

Fowler87

Lukaku and Siggy out. Sane and Jesus in. Some risk with Lukaku explosiveness but going on previous games against top 6, another 2 pointer is on the cards. Hoping to be early on Jesus train and Sane makes sense too with DGWs on horizon

COH

Most likely do

Ibra > Aguerro
Negredo > Gabbiadini

Sooner or Later

Thinking

Lukaku to Yabba Dabba Dini
Siggy to Sane

For a 4 point hit

Hogey007

Most likely negredo to gabbiadini or aguero/lukaku to Kane.
Will be wildcarding in gw36.

Have a strong front 8 now so no idea who to bench if I get gabbiadini whereas if I get Kane in for lukaku/aguero it's aguero simple decision to bench negredo.

Both good shouts. If Jesus gets minutes off the bench against Arsenal tomrrow and Utd on Thursday he would would be a good captaincy shout if in line to start against that Boro defence.

If not then Sane looks the next best City attacking prospect for the captaincy (if like me Aguero is out of budget).

Wild Card time.

Question..do you go back to €100m budget or do you get the benefit of any money banked?

You'll have what money your team is worth now.

Southampton players don't look half as appealing after Hull doing that with 10 men today.

Hull are a different animal at home.

Negredo out Gabbiadini in

bantee

Origi to Gabby but I'll wait until all games played

Benimar

Probably use my 2FTs to do Negredo and Siggy to Gabbiadini and King.

A hit or two are a possibility also.

Like last week I won't be pulling the trigger until friday, its just not worth the risk.

spock.

I'll more than likely be doing Negredo to Gabbi.
May take a hit to do Valdes to Forster too instead of playing Jaku.

patmac

Tavies to King, not happy that I did not do it this week.

Chesty08

Need to move on Valdes, Holgate, Bavies, Valencia, Zaha, Benteke, Negredo

WC in GW30 beginning to backfire

I'm on a wildcard and planning on bringing him in. Granted no DGW but guaranteed regular till end of season and at 4.1.

Home to Watford in GW37, not a bad fixture for those of us planning a BB.

Definitely in my WC team. Great fixture in GW37.

Amazing value enabler with those fixtures.

Don't get blinded by DGW - i took a punt with Gibson and negredo (no point hit) but i honestly thought they​ might get something today and against sunderland. Form / fixtures and players with something to play for. That's my mantra with my wildcard. Might throw in a gabbiadini but mainly going to be those in top 6 + teams scrapping at bottom.

Mr. Guappa

I will be wildcarding in GW36 so this weeks transfer will be a one week punt. Looking at the fixtures my early thoughts are Gabbiadini, Tadic, Mkhitaryan, Rashford, KDB, Jesus, Firmino. Will take a closer look on Friday.

Banking bar injury. Less than 48 hrs between the end of the current GW and the start of the next

Trying to decide if I should get rid of Siggy or not. King and Pedro are the potential replacements but Pedro's form is a worry. King could easily outscore him in gw37 despite Pedro having a dgwk. Any opinions?

King should be in everyone's team for last 4 weeks imo
Been a sensational signing for me but nobody around me has him yet ???

Yeah it's crazy, I have Redmond stinking up my team since GW30 when I WC with DGW.. should of just got King

Ya not getting him in for GW28 was one of my worst decisions this season. Probably time to rectify that!

Getting Redmond was good planning though considering Southampton's​ two dgwks. But good planning seems to count for nothing this season.

Redmond has 4 goals and an assist all season. Merely having double gameweek players doesn't represent good planning, especially when you do it early and are then stuck with that player in the meantime rather than accumulating points from the higher scoring players who have no DGW.

Good point. I was guilty of this myself getting the likes of Stanislas in specifically for GW28 and then being stuck with him. Hopefully I'll remember this lesson next season!

Hogey007

I can't give a logical reason as to why I still don't have king.
Even this week it was very close with him and firmino and I chose to bring in firmino.
When king's name came up on scoresheet after 2 mins I was very relieved that 88 mins passed, 70 mins of those v 10 man, and Bournemouth added 3 more goals and he wasn't involved.

And I still don't plan to get him next week as Zaha had a nice fixture but that may change based on how players perform.

It's a hard strategy to put any kind of solid rule on. I mean strictly speaking there is no reason why the player with the DGW can't hit form too. This season has been one with a rapidly changing dynamic and from what I've seen most people's frustrations primarily source from not being able to keep up with that etc.

I haven't had king and well done to all that had . I've held off because what he is doing I didn't think was sustainable. He is basically at messi and ronaldo levels of goalscoring consistency the past 12 weeks. I more than likely won't be getting him now for the same reasons and obviously influenced by the dgws aswell.

I thought the same about Vardez last season. Had to eventually swallow my pride =/

It can be frustrating trying to predict if you're going to have a Michu or a Capoue!

100%.

I keep saying it, but once you reduce DGW planning to a numbers game, a headcount if how many doublers you can get, then you're probably gonna crash and burn.

My mistake was (a) not getting King for the BGW and (b) writing him off thereafter due to those dreadful fixtures. He's in my WC now and staying.

Is 12 weeks not proof enough now though that it is sustainable or how long should we give a player before finally giving in? I think I will get him anyway, he has the form, fixtures, explosive potential and penalties. It was a long 88 minutes as a non owner yesterday after he scored.

I think Bournemouth have the pressure off and are playing good football attacking wise. He's OOP playing as a striker, may still have pens. He could have scored 15pts yesterday.

I don't think I can ignore him any longer.

km79

Looks almost certain that Rashford and miki are on bench
Rooney starting
Wont be many goals in this game ......

spock.

I've had King since GW28 and he's been brillant for me but I can understand why people haven't brought him in yet if they didn't have him that week.
He had 3 horrible fixtures followed by a week where the likes of Zaha had a double.

I can't see any reason why anyone would continue to go without him from here though.

Totally agree. Anyone asking "How many DGW players do you have" are going the wrong way

Those without a wildcard and facing into dgws.

Though King with Burnley at home in 37 could be a much better punt than any DGWer considering his form and the DGW lottery selection .

Ace2007

On the King topic not having him is probably better than having him, and him sitting as first sub, for last 4 GW's.

He could well be but there are only 5 midfield spots I currently have sanchez alli eriksen Pedro siggy. They are listed in order of importance IMO. Siggy is going more than likely for ozil and Pedro may go for either hazard or sane. I just don't see myself bringing in king now. I'm defo playing 352 in 37.

The real mccoy 91

Considering a punt on the ox with a couple of dgws coming up. Currently looking at a -8 of
Lukaku-> kane
Son-> ox
Negredo-> gabbi
Not pulling the trigger yet tho am I mad?

Ox left the ground on crutches according to my Twitter Feed.
