Yea Liverpool look stronger. Good start for me if Sheffield United hold on to the clean sheet. Foden starting too.

Good call on Foden!

I had to start trusting my gut after the Aubameyang incident :-)

Think i'm just gonna go all out and burn what transfers i have. Will wait for updated fixtures(tomorrow hopefully) but i only have 4 transfers anyway and if i'm to have any chance of finishing top 4 in the money leagues then i feel like i'm just gonna have to throw caution to the wind

Donegal1234 · 02-07-2020 11:34pm

up to fourth now. Slow and steady

Dearg81 · 02-07-2020 11:40pm

Big jump for me from 117 to 65. Foden matched De Bruyne with 14 points.

Excellent. Foden a great move. shall be getting him in shortly haha.

manual_man · 03-07-2020 12:05am

does anyone know the number of teams that started out in this by the way? I'm guessing a few hundred thousand - in any case great going to be in and around the top 100 and Donegal especially to be in with a chance of winning it. Up the yard haha

I have 3 left now. I'm aiming for top 10 :-) only 50 off. I won't be playing safe though as I don't care about my rank,just want to get as many points as possible.

I think it's around 700k-800k if my memory is good.

Our teams are not too dissimilar actually.

Up to 7.3k. Might use one of my 2 transfers to get rid of Barnes for Foden, especially if he loses his place.

Donegal1234 · 03-07-2020 11:06am

Looking at replacing Trent with maguire before tomorrow.Think klopp with give Nico Williams his full debut Soon

Maguire has good fixtures and will get me passing bonus.

Bit risky? Pool will look to bounce back and records still to play for. I have both btw.

Most points anyway.

highest points total in league history. I think there's others too. In any case they'll really want to bounce back after the humiliation of yesterday. Maguire and/or AWB are good picks - just not sure I'd get rid of TAA or VVD to get them - they're so highly owned.

I juts feel Nico William will make 1/2 starts between now and end of year. Already subbed him for Trent past 2 games. Where as maguire is 100% nailed on and high chance of passing bonus

If it was me I would leave it be and see what happens. It's impossible to know what happens on Sunday. More damage is done by taking out Liverpool players and them running riot than leaving them alone and players not playing. I doubt Donegal's rivals would be taking them out.

Maguire is great for passing bonus alright. I'll probably be getting rid of Gomez myself - was poor and taken off at h/t though I may get in vvd to cover that angle. Have TAA already.

Trent will definitely not start every game. I'm not sure about tomorrow though, tough to call.

Thats my thinking , at this stage I need players to be playing for me week in week out and not sitting on the bench. Doing Taa to maguire saves me 1 million aswell

But will spend afternoon thinking about it.

It's way more then that I reckon. I looked it the figures last season and there was a million plus entrants.

Seen this by scrolling back back on Twitter

Sky average remaining transfers

Top 10 - 4.5
100 - 5.3
1000 - 6.1
5000 - 6.4

This way before we restarted the games again
I can imagine a few teams now are running on 1/2 transfers.

When you put it like that it does sound a reasonable transfer. Go with your gut feeling on it, it's got you where you are so far!
