Gameweek 8 Transfers.

boccy23

Worth a -4 for the following:

Kun > Kane (c)
Dilva > Lucas

Would probably need another -4 to bring in MCI cover for next game week.

wardides

Have 2 transfers to make so going with Aguero > Kane & Richarlison > Hughes. Planning to wildcard in GW10 due to change in fixtures, so can revisit then. Needed to free up 0.8 to get Kane in so happy enough. Watford home to Bournemouth this week, and just not been overly impressed with Richarlison. Seems similar to last year, one good week in 7/8. Kane is a no brainer for me.

Everything pointing toward a third bank of the season.

Mint Sauce

Theres so much I could/want to do, but WCing once the deadline passes.

Tempted by Lakaku to Vardy, just to make up a few points this GW, but then fully expect Utd to start scoring if I do.

BOHtox

Thinking of Kane in for aguero and hazard in for salah for a -4 then wildcarding next week. Thoughts?

the whole year inn

Is nobody worried about CL hangover from Kane and that he prob wont be getting the full 90.He has played alot of minutes?Augero has playes alot less minutes and that Liverpool game could be free scoring

I got Son in for Pogba and Sucess for Long .
My question is do I play Robertson ?

No.

He didn’t make himself available for the European game beacuse his partner is pregnant.

I’m not sure how far along she is but to me it’s obviously just an excuse as he doesn’t want to play in Europa League and wants to keep himself available for the league.

I would like to see Emery take away his minutes and go with a player that isn’t playing for a Bosman and will be still there next season.

Like Iwobi for example. That guy deserves a chance.

You've said this a few times and I'm not sure what it's based on. Sounds like some conspiracy theory to me. Not saying his levels of motivation hasn't reduced as he draws closer to an exit from the club but I'm not quite sure if he's 'obviously' making excuses so he doesn't have to play Europa League football.

Chesty08

Bank the transfer and do 
Silva / Aguero to Salah / Mitrovic next week
or
take a hit and do it this week?

Will Salah / Mitro minus 4 outscore Silva / Aguero?
Hmmmm

I’m not being contrary but I’d play Townsend and bank FT.

manual_man

Probably going to do Ramsey to Mad Dog Maddison. Will then leave me exact funds to do Success to Arnie the week after

With a Bench of Hamer, Doherty, Fraser and TAA I am considering Bench Boost - the not playing goalkeeper notwithstanding.....what do you think?

TimeToShine

I'd say Ramsey is highly motivated to perform to maximize his pay day when he leaves. I wouldn't write him off just yet.

Why wouldn't he get the full 90? It's international break after this GW so I'm sure he'll be fine.

Liverpool defensively are very strong at home and Aguero's record in Anfield is terrible IIRC.

Plus Spurs aren't exactly flush with dependable attackers to replace kane. He'll get plenty of minutes unless injured.

Down to Knockaert Vs Fraser?

I prefer Fraser this GW but not by much. Losing Townsend though at this point plus Knockaert having good fixtures is a good idea. So I'm 50/50.

Maybe saving the FT for the break leans me towards leaving it alone and saving the transfer.

Hoping you don't get stung then by Knockaert on that night he is playing this weekend that shall go unmentioned... As good a cheaper option as he is though he's probably still more likely to score nothing than something any given week.

wardides

Just had to choose about whether to go Richarlision to either knockeart,Fraser or Hughes. Went with Knockaert, as those fixtures are insane.

Yeah. I was looking at it as one game thing.

Upcoming fixtures considered I’d sell Townsend as Brighton have some great fixtures coming up.

dsmythy

Any other time the idea of switching a forward playing Wolves to one playing Arsenal would seem like madness. Zaha has been picking up points but hasn't been overly impressive plus the fixture tide is turning. Would much rather own Mitrovic at this point. And honestly this season it seems Wolves are tighter than Arsenal, at present at least.

I could just keep Zaha and have 2FT to cover the break but I've a wildcard in hand and an itchy trigger finger so it can be called on if a few players drop.

So to go with my gut and transfer Zaha to Mitrovic or go by old reputation where Wolves are supposed to be the side who concede more?

S.M.B.

I was wrestling with Fraser to Knockaert for a -4 which seemed too risky. Will look at bringing him in if he does deliver this weekend.

extra gravy

Ings and Zaha to Mitro and Arnie for a -4...

Yay or nay?

Want them both long term and funds are tight so ideally I'd like them both this week so I don't have to be keeping an eye on price changes over the ib.

Bank imo 2 ft’s After the break could be a different picture

I’m wildcarding at 9:30 this evening anyway, so it’s gotta be Son for a one week punt right?

You meant tomorrow. Shh

But yes Son for a Spurs player this week

patmac

I'm behind on all my money leagues do I do a -4 Kun/Richarlison to Lennon/Kane for a quick gamble?

Part of me wants to do a mental Salah/Kun to Kane/Son this week

Especially with Salahs price drop!

Honestly I think they're decent moves if you can reverse them back in! I did it. If it works it'll be heaven
