    I really want Kane, all signs are pointing at him finishing with the golden boot BUT that price tag means I have to concede in midfield! Can I really take the risk of a weakened side for a high scoring striker 🀪

    When I can hold Jimenez and Wilson for the same price as Harry Kane

    That 5-2-3 is a new one, I didn't know it was legal to play two mids.. ppl are really going for it in the final stretch !!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,399 ✭✭✭✭ThunbergsAreGo


    I’m currently looking at a 5-2-3:
    Kepa
    Schlupp Azpi Lindelof Shaw Trippier
    Sterling Hazard
    Batshuayi Aguero Kane

    Probably will change numerous more times. Trippier could easily become Laporte and hopefully there will be more information about Shaw’s injury closer to the deadline. Dalot would be interesting if there was guarantees he’d get minutes. Might look back into the option of a 4-3-3 with Silva being the mid that is most appealing. Can’t get past the idea of having Kane at the new stadium even though he’ll more than likely let me down like he did when I triple captained him against Cardiff!

    You need three City

    Any advice on this squad lads ??

    Leno
    TAA kolasinac van dijk
    Mane hazard Sterling Fraser
    Wilson Jimenez Aguero

    Only 4 have the DGW
    Feel there's potential for a lot more points. Have taken Doherty out as he blanks next week !

    There is a separate thread for Wildcards, you would be better posting your team there as we are looking at things from a totally different perspective, unless of course you are playing both your wildcard and free hit in the one week.

    But the idea of Jesus and Mahrez starting ahead of them has been serious stress this week, driving myself mad. Might just captain Mane (one match LEI)

    Aguero will start both. Maybe Sterling too. Even if he only started one he has good fixtures anyway.

    4-4-2 for myself, awaiting rashford news tomorrow to see if he's fully fit.
    Guaita
    Luiz Dunk Schlupp
    Dilva Pogba Hazard Sterling (CH-O)
    Kane Aguero

    Should I use my transfer before I activate free hit so I don’t lose this week’s transfer? Is that allowed?

    Now looking at Sane & Lindelof for Mahrez & Young.

    Don’t really like the Lindelof pick as no potential for attacking returns. I think Mahrez will start v Cardiff.

    Not sure which Is better

    Good team, who is the 4th defender?

    I've a nagging doubt about Schlupp though he's sat in my team since I pressed the button. Will he play both games. Always has been a temporary measure his current playing position. Instincts are eating at me....


  • Registered Users Posts: 78 ✭✭Carrollman


    Looking at 3-4-3 at the moment


    Kepa
    Azpi Lindelof Laporte
    Son Pogba Hazard Sterling
    Rashford Aguero Jimenez

    Still undecided on Jimenez as unsure of his minutes as a result of upcoming FA cup game.

    May also play a Palace def instead of Lindelof

    Have only put together my team today and I'm very similar to you:

    Kepa
    Laporte Luiz Schlupp
    Son Pogba Hazard Sterling
    Rashford Aguero Jimenez


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,634 ✭✭✭miller82


    people confident enough that rashford will be getting the majority of game time up top over the two ?

    whats the better combo :

    kun - kane
    deulofeu in midfield

    or

    kun - rashford
    Dilva in midfield


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,675 ✭✭✭thunderdog


    Moved from a 3-4-3 to this 4-4-2

    Keppa
    Laporte Smalling Azpi Schlupp
    Sterling Pogba Hazard Deulofeu
    Aguero Kane

    The obvious weak spot is Deulofeu (given his upcoming FA semi) but I’m finding that 4th mid spot hard enough to nail down. Happy enough to roll the dice on Deulofeu

    Teams are so much more balanced without Kane imo
    I will be very similar to this except I may go for a 5th mid or another premium defender instead of Jiminez
    He will prob only start the first game. And that’s away to burnley ........

    Deulofeu will not play both games
    If you downgraded Kane to Rashford you could get a spurs mids
    You then have 2 players with better fixtures who will start both games
    (All dependant in Rashford being fit which he will be imo )

    Yeah I have looked at that. The thing I like about Kane is that he is one of the few players this week who is almost guaranteed to get both games.


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


    Every time I try a team without Kane I’m not as happy as I am with my main draft:

    Ederson
    Luiz Lindelof Schlupp Duffy
    Sterling Hazard Pogba Milivojevic
    Aguero Kane

    Rashford allows me to say double up on Chelsea defenders and/or go 3-5-2 with Eriksen/Alli/Son, but I don’t like it as much. A Spurs midfielder just feels like Spurs coverage for the sake of it, when really Kane is the best Spurs player to have by a mile.

    What have Spurs mids done recently to justify getting them in especially with a difficult first fixture

    Alli is back and assisted in first game back after his injury . He scored in that game
    So a goal and assist in last 2 games . Albeit spread over 2 months :D

    You may have a point though to be fair
    This is going to be a tough call
    If there is any element of doubt over Rashford then decision is made
    In fact........marital may well then be a canny pick then to go with Kane ............


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,634 ✭✭✭miller82


    is dunk and duffy a very risky move ?

    Yeah, it’s too much.

    Spread the risk out, one Brighton and one Palace defender instead for example.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,779 ✭✭✭Benimar


    I'm also in the Kane camp, but finding him difficult to fit in.

    Neither Hazard nor Pogbas stats are good, and one of them will definitely leave us all down this week..if only I knew which one I'd leave them out for the funds for Kane :pac:

    Ali is the one that interests me as well if I was going down that route

    Rashford is the key alright - would almost prefer he is ruled out as it would push me more towards Kane

    I actually really want Kane though :P but yeah just no way of fitting him in.

    Wolves will still want to do well in the league and finish as high as possible. Hoping Jimmi gets 1.5 matches in that case. Plus he could score well in one game even. Will assess again later.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,650 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    First template draft - losing money on Vardy was hella annoying last night :mad:


    Ederson


    Luiz | Schlupp | Lindelof | Azpi


    Hazard | Pogba | Son | Sterling


    Agueriooooo (C) | Batshuayi


    0.9m ITB



    Having typed it out and squinted at it, I'm not sure I'm happy with Son or Lindelof, tempted by Mahrez for some odd reason :confused: ....will tinker away for another bit


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    My team value is a bit rubbish so I've had to go with a ropey defence. Happyish with the team but unsure about Silva. Would rather Pog but can't afford him. Could go with Deeney up front and get Pog in but worried about Watford rotation.

    Kepa
    Boly, Tomkins, David Luiz
    D. Silva, Sterling, Townsend, Hazard
    Zaha, Aguero, Rashford
    Subs: Norris, McTominay, Schelletto, Connolly.

    I have played around with having Pedro in instead of hazard. Frees up a decent chunk of cash to get

    Sterling Pedro Pogba [any value mid]
    Aguero Kane Rashford
