    courtois/ Elliot

    Yedlin, Simpson, kiko, lowton, tarkowski

    Pogba , sane, tpt, surman, salah

    Kane , lukaku , firmino

    Plan to play 3 4 3 most weeks.

    Defenders all play 90mins each week albeit for poor teams.

    If you're looking for input, I would say that this lacks Morata or Hazard (or both) given their recent form and upcoming fixtures.

    Also think Richarlison is a must-have and likely season keeper at his price and he would be one of the first names on any WC team I was making.

    I think you could probably do Pogba and Firmino out for Richarlison and Morata (could be wrong though, haven't checked exact prices!)

    Cheers for the feedback. I've had reicharlison all season. Love him.

    Basically I downgraded bellerin to upgrade rich to pogba.

    Yeah personally I think he will continue to perform, Watford are an attacking team with a great manager and he's playing up top. He looks a real talent too. When you think of the sitters he missed against Chelsea and the Cleverley penalty miss he could have an even higher tally. You might argue the misses show he's not a top player but the fact he's in those positions counts for a lot and he'll score them more often than not.

    The game is one of opinions anyway, so there's no way of knowing who will be right, but I would definitely go for Richy over Pogs at their prices. You also have United cover with Lukaku.

    You could also consider Lukaku out for Morata and upgrade a defender or midfielder if you want to stick with Pogs, 2 United non-defenders is overkill imo

    Definitely need some Chelsea in there. Don't forget Pool and United still have to qualify for CL so there'll be rotation. I'd downgrade Firmino to Wilson and use that money to get Richarlison in there. TPT isn't guaranteed his place anymore either, RLC is a better option. Lukaku to Morata would give you an extra million to invest in defence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 316 ✭✭Irish Raven


    Should i off load ageuro for morata....or ageuro and stephens for hazard and wilson...that would be a -8.... n giv murray kane n wilson upfront, which aint ideal!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 650 ✭✭✭PVA


    Will be making 1 transfer this week. TPT out for Zaha, Gros or Choupo-Moting...

    Was initially set on Zaha based on his fixtures but make a final decision tomorrow evening. If Gros wasn't facing United it would be an even tougher call! Will likely stick with my initial decision and go with Zaha, tasty fixtures and Palace will be fighting for every point

    Despite making 3 defensive transfers as part of my -16 hit last week, I'm left with only Daniels my only defender having a good fixture. Jones and Mbemba are both out, leaving me with Mee (Arsenal H) and Hegazi (confirmed donkey)

    Have decided my long term front 8 will consist of Kane-Morata-Niasse.

    Zaha-Richarlison..

    Now which 3 of these 4 guys?

    Hazard. Salah. Pogba. Sane?

    I'm coming to this conclusion myself tbh
    But I don't think I'll be holding lukaku either
    That's fine short term but I may yet go to pogba after city game

    I am beginning to look at demeri gray as my 5th mid now which would allow hazard if I wanted
    Also looking at either a Chelsea defender for bavies or perhaps courtouis


    And Alli hitting form this weekend would change things again !!!!!
    They also have a good run at a time when everyone is abadoning them


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,672 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Aguero to Lukaku done.

    Reluctantly getting rid of Kun but he can't be trusted.

    Lukaku ALWAYS scores in streaks, and now that he's got one I think it's time to get him back in, especially with PogBack.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,686 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Already have Sane. Should I keep Dilva as well or chance Pogba? I don't have Lukaku.

    Get Pogba


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,676 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Was all set to do Carroll to Pogba but having second thoughts now. Maybe go for Zaha instead.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    Who would you start : Mee or Ward (vs Arsenal this weekend)

    Or start both and drop Moreno ( Chelsea) but pretty risky


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,453 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Have Eriksen, thinking of getting Sane or Pogba for him.

    It's silly to ditch him before managerless West Brom tho isn't it?

    Eriksen is class and almost never gets rested. Just leave him in your squad and you'll be rewarded

    A lot of the teams who gained ground on me did so without any spurs players and the likes of grobb and choupo Double ups
    I'm banking in my faith in spurs paying off this weekend
    If it doesn't I'm in big big trouble as they take up a fair chunk of my budget !!!!

    Any Black Friday deals on KDB??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,850 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    I am no closer to figuring out what to do with my team - might just make some boring transfers to free up $$$ and sort it out after the games.

    Want Hazard and no idea what to do with my city players, fortunately Hazard doesn't look like going up tonight and none of my players are dropping.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,158 ✭✭✭✭hufpc8w3adnk65


    On my wildcard still so I moved Niasse out for Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

    Now who to start him or Richarlson?

    Hazard Pogba Salah RLC
    Kane Jesus
    Are the other 6. What would you do?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,313 ✭✭✭McBain11


    I'm not even sure of Everton and Watfords fixtures, yet I'd still think that's a no brainer. Richarlison in serious form. Calvert Lewin has never produced regularly and is part of a sinking ship that has clipped about 50 icebergs at once.

    Just making sure I wasn’t over simplifying it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,745 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    Totally addled - having 2 FT's ain't all it's cracked up to be :pac:

    I think I've boiled my options down to the following:

    1) Yoshida out for Kiko Femenia - leaves me with 1FT and £1.8m ITB
    2) Vardy & Surman out for Wilson & Pogba £0.0 ITB
    3) Yoshida & Speroni out for Kiko Femenia & DDG £0.0 ITB

    FWIW I fancy Vardy to have a party of some description tonight so I'm leaning towards the rather mundane Option 1 :confused::confused::confused:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Would you do Aguero -> Wilson and Carroll -> Hazard this week for a -4 or leave it and do it for free next week, lads?

    I'm looking at Aguero to Wilson and Ritchie to Sane for a -4 which is sort of similar to your scenario.

    I'm almost certain to do it (just waiting on press conferences) as I reckon there is no way Aguero starts.

    Could you get away without doing the Hazard one? Liverpool have only conceded 1 goal in 6 home games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,690 ✭✭✭Mokuba


    Went Firmino to Wilson, .1 short of upgrading Sterling to Hazard, will make the swap next week, will have 2 free transfers to free up the cash.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,676 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    A bit stumped on what to do next... Already did Vardy to Wilson. 4.7m itb

    Foster Elliot
    Jones Mee Naughton Duffy Daniels
    Sane Salah Gross Richarlison Carroll
    Kane Lukaku Wilson

    1. Carroll to Zaha/Pogba -4
    2. Carroll to Zaha/Pogba and Jones to Mustafi/Otamendi -8
    3. Don't make any more transfers in case I decide to go for Hazard next week.

    2 is tempting as it would set team up nicely for the next few weeks.

    Aguero to Wilson and Chalobah to Salah for me for -8, once I hear today's news. It would probably take something like a Jesus injury to stop me transferring Aguero out.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Could do with a second opinion...

    Currently on the following.

    0.9m in bank

    Fabianski
    Azpilicueta - Van Dijk - Ward
    Silva - Sane - Richarlison - RLC - Salah
    Kane - Jesus
    SUB: Elliot, Gomez, Duffy, Hemed

    So I am unsure whether use my FT or save it. Anyone see a transfer they would make?

    This week without doubt


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,759 ✭✭✭gustafo


    is it still 2 wildcards per season?

    1 before xmas and 1 after?

    Cheers.

    Zaha

    Had a closer look at Pogba last night and he has thrown a massive spanner in the works. For £1.2m more than Zaha he looks great value... his underlying stats are even stronger than Sane, albeit over just 5 games this season.

    Bringing Jones in (for a hit) for his good run of three fixtures has not worked out, so I might just bite the bullet and downgrade him to a £4.4m defender and upgrade TPT to Pogba instead of Zaha. Would give me this front-line;

    Sane -- Salah -- Richarlison -- Sterling -- Pogba
    Niasse -- Jesus -- Kane

    The problem is, there are no £4.4m defenders with a good fixture this week. I could stick Mariappa in as I had planned on trading out Mbemba for him at some stage anyway, and could then upgrade Mbemba at a later date for Dunk/Francis etc when the fixtures turn. An extra £0.1m would make this a lot easier :(

    Is going without united cover over the next couple of games a bit foolish?

    Feckin Harry Kane still holds a spell over me.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭Colking


    Hi Folks, a bit of a conundrum for me this week and I would appreciate your thoughts to help me make a decision (talk me down from a ledge)

    Elliot

    Dunk, Mee, Kiko

    Richarlison, Salah, Sterling, Sané

    Morata, Agüero, Kane

    Subs:
    Pope, Mbemba, Jones, Carroll

    As things stand I have 3 non playing subs and serious potential that Aguero and Sterling don't play. (Assuming Kiko is fully fit and plays or else it's even worse)

    If that were to happen it would mean fielding 9 players (or 8 if Kiko doesn't play)

    I have 0 ITB and 1 FT

    I'm thinking about a -8

    Aguero - Niasse (enabler)
    Carrol - Hazard
    Sterling - Pogba

    It should guarantee me 11 starters (If Kiko plays and Pep doesn't do something mad with Sane)

    What do you think ?

    I'd hold fire on Pogba!!

    Mourinho on Pogba: “Paul is still on this process where he cannot go more than 65-70 minutes because that’s when fatigue normally arrives. With so many matches we need to protect such an important player."

    I haven't had as close a look at Pogba as you but I would personally go with Zaha and keep the funds for the defence. Will be quite a lot of funds invested in midfield otherwise.

    Also you might potentially need some funds to transfer Jesus to Morata next week depending on when you brought in Jesus (not sure if this is in your planning but it would be the next big move I would be thinking with that team)

    Those Pogba quotes are nonsense from Mourinho. Out of any manager he is the one that expects people to play even when he is injured.
    Pogba is one of his go to fellas and I believe he will start both games this week

    Morata will be coming in for Jesus for the next GW.

    As much as I would love to have Hazard or Alonso for the upcoming run, you simply can't have everyone...

    The quote says we will only play 65-70, I think most assume he will start the next two games. At £8m on current form he could still be great value even if he only plays 65-70 mins

    Option 3 I think.
    Jones could be worth a hit. I have him from the start so would put up with a few rests if he has not got a serious injury.

    Those other options are pretty good. Zaha looks atm the only one who could cost more.

    Waiting gives you more time for Pog/Luk, Haz/Morata and perhaps a Chelsea defender could become a consideration.

    Option 1 looks sensible once you have cover for Kiko in the following two GWs.

    If Speroni starts we can probably assume he's nailed.
