As someone pointed out to me yesterday there's not a lot to be gained by having Martinez. I ditched him for Button and used the money elsewhere

Very fair point. I've upgraded Saka to Foden and downgraded Martinez to Button

Finally moved Taylor out of defense and finally brought in Aurier

Have moved Taylor out for Holgate myself.

Wish i had the extra 0.6 for Aurier. He'd be grwat craic to own.

Lads will Jesus start for City?

What strikers are worth considering for this weekend? Have DCL and Jiminez

9.7m in bank

Who knows. Sterling could easily easily start up top

Rashford

Blanco100

Finally made my selection

Patricio (Button)

TAA, AWB, Lascelles (Jack Robinson, Ngakia)

Salah, Fernandes, Son, Sarr (Saka)

DCL, Jiminez, Rashford

Happy with this selection

I seem to be the only one who likes Ngakia for WHU at 4.0. He's been playing regularly in recent Gws. But he's purely fodder to come in with 2 points max.

Hasn't signed a new contract so might not play again after this week

Ha brilliant.

That's a transfer waiting to happen for me so.

Finished up with:


De Gea Martin
TAA Aurier Doherty Kiko Femenia Boly
KdB Son Fernandes Richarlison Guendouzi
Jimenez Rashford DCL


1.3m in the bank. Will play 343 or 442 for the next couple of weeks.

I'm happy with this team apart from the goalie. I'd like Foster but would need to find another 0.7 to get him.

Downgrade Foden to Saka/Cantwell and Ward/Masina to Robinson?

Yea that's the best way of doing it as they are the bench players. I would like to keep Foden though.

I take it many people are spooked at the FA Cup games to make wildcarding unattractive?

I know this will be tough but TAA is a must. if not TAA then robertson. try to get rid of saiss and patricio and buy either robertson or TAA instead of Gomez. Then play 3 4 3?

dsmythy

Might be time now. Get complete flexibility over the elongated gameweek and embedded cup games.

Benimar

Afternoon all, I’m here all week:pac:

Had always planned to WC this week and with 3 Sheff U defenders, 3 Villa players and Auba it’s definitely time!

ShimSlady

Currently hovering over the following wildcard:

Pope (Martin)

Alonso, Aurier, TAA (Lascelles, Saiss)

Salah, KDB, Mount, Sterling (Saka)

Jesus, Abraham, Greenwood

.5m in the bank

Benimar

So the big question is:

Fernandes, Martial, Rashford

Or

2 + a Man U defender?

AWB is getting forward more since the restart, and it looks like his crossing has improved.

Another thing to consider is Greenwood is a shoe in for the RW role for the rest of the season.

Benimar

Will probably change 10+ times between now and saturday:

Pope, Nyland
TAA, Doherty, Maguire, Aurier, Lascelles
Salah, KDB, Fernandes, Martial, Pulisic
Jimenez, DCL, Nketiah

Will Downgrade Salah to Mahrez and upgrade a forward in GW35 all going well.

3-5-2 or 4-5-1 formation?

Will vary it. DCL has 3 nice home games, so will go 3-5-2 those weeks.

Looking at going with the same front 8 (bringing Puli in this week) - would gladly play 7 midfielders if I could!

Nice team

stephenl15

Activated. Didn't really put any thought into why, as I'm languishing around 500k, I just pressed it. Setting up for BB

Pope Martinez
TAA, Saiss, Lascelles, Aurier, AWB
Bruno, Martial, KDB, Mahrez, ASM
Kane, Ings, DCL

No Salah probably an awful shout but we'll have to roll with it now but happy otherwise. Would have liked Pulisic and Dohety also
Thoughts?

dsmythy

Stank the last week out with a 5 million ranking. Looking at the team still dont believe it deserved it but wildcard time.

A lead I was hoping to haul in looks out of reach now. This is where i stand at this moment with not a penny left.

DDG Button
VVD Alonso Doherty Saiss Williams(liv)
KDB Salah Martial Antonio Saka
Kane Greenwood DCL

Considering Mahrez instead of KDB for the cash. Hes not that far behind him scoring recently and might be the only one starting next game.

Could go VVD to Gomez for cash again.

Formation for starters is a 3-4-2 then with one of Saiss Saka and Greenwood starting to make 11. Greenwood in a 3-4-3 for now more than likely

I think maybe change Alonso to Azpi and I would suggest getting Bruno Fernandes in.

Anyone want to talk me out of this (Kane) madness?

Pope, Nyland
AWB, Doherty, Aurier, Saiss, Holgate
Salah, Mahrez, Bruno, Martial, Pulisic
Kane, Jimenez, Nketiah.

Salah to KDB next week (gambling KDB is rested this week)

Kane is not impacting on the rest of you squad budget wise. I'm assuming here that your differential tactic is to ignore Liverpool for most of the run in.

Shaving a few quid on the D might reduce benching headaches but the main benefit would be promoting Niketiah up your bench. However a planned later transfer to promote Holgate by downgrading a more expensive defender could be useful.

Hmm, I'm not being clear here. I guess having a 3.9M and then going for Digne later on might be worth looking into.

TL,DR Like it and hard to knock. Best of luck.

Not sure Kane is worth it but they do have bournemouth after this gw so that'll surely be his best chance of points.
I had no pool players in my squad for the last gw and it paid off but brought in taa this week.
It''s hard to see pool not getting a few goals against this villa side and I fear there'll be a backlash after the city result.


I took a hit (-4) and dropped rich for willian, rich hasn't done much in a long time and willian is on fire and a lot cheaper...home to watford looks like more points
saint max for fleck, hoping i haven't missed the boat there.... and taa for chilwell
I think all three have great chances at home against teams at the bottom

patricio mc carthey
doherty awb fernandez taa digne
kdb bruno saintm willian guendozi
jiminez rashford dcl (next out)

have 5.1m left


Leader has flown in my league so nothing to play for
