On the Pukki train last night. Should have jumped last night. I expect another double priced use this week from him, especially if Kane blanks.

normanoffside

I think Perez has to go for me.

Is Pukki not the new Mitrovic from.last year? Teams will cop onto him and his influence will reduce.

Could be, but it will be high percentage of active players affected so not sure if its good idea to be left behind.

He won't get double digits every week, but at that price he could be great value anyway.

Every player gets special attention when they are known to be especially dangerous. Getting him or not I guess is whether you believe he is capable of escaping that attention or his team able to assist him in that.

And that will be the time to move on to whoever is affordable and in form

He could also be the new Jiminez...

Similar position, just nowhere to go to get him - and not 100 percent I even want him out of pure stubbornness.

Only way I get him this week is if Martial needs to go and even then I think I prefer Haller , who could be the next bandwagon

I agree on Haller. West Ham have too many good options going forward that they will score a few. With the midfield positions slightly difficult to predict, Haller looks the one central to the dynamic of how they’ll play.

I tempted to wildcard and get shot of Kane, Auba and King and go with 3 strikers in the mid 6-7mil bracket as they could provide more value.

So something like Pukki, Haller and Wesley for example.

Then use the extra cash to upgrade midfielders to Pepe / Mane

A quick look sees a midfield/attack of

Salah Sterling Pepe KdB (Cantwell)

Pukki Haller Wesley

The thing I like about that striker setup is that ability to flip between a host of strikers like Tammy, Barnes, Wood, Jimi etc....

Pukki is averaging around 4 shots per game and scoring every 2.4.
They aren't massive numbers so there's not really much that opposition defenders can snuff out. It's not like Salah taking 15+ shots a game so defenders can dedicate extra attention to him to reduce effectiveness.

I'll probably get Haller to replace Wilson. He has decent fixtures for the foreseeable and has a strong attacking midfield behind to supply him. Haller's price drop also effectively cancels out what I lost on Wilson and having 0.5 itb gives me more options when spending elsewhere.

May also have to get rid of Siggy but don't want to take a -4. I also have Ndombele so if he is going to miss a few weeks I might WC.

Keep Wilson and replace Siggy would be my move for now.

He’s been consistent enough tagging on points & yet to score.

No question if he will start scoring again , it’s when.

Is Pukki on penalties?

FFS have Vrancic ahead of him, not sure on what basis.

He'd have to be on the pitch to take them though. Vrancic has only played 15 mins so far.

Another assist for Wilson. He is tracking towards 190 points this season with avg. 5 per game.

As I said he’ll start scoring soon, I’d not sell him at this point

caviardreams

Thinking of a bit of a punt on Harry Wilson - though two Wilsons in my team seems like setting myself up for trouble! :pac:

Wood or Ings IMO.

Had Wood the last 3 weeks for a measley 5 points, with Barnes quadrupling his score for 0.2 more.

Two Wilsons and two Burnley up front too obvious, or lose Wood?

Kane out

COH

Took a -4 yesterday but the temptation to WC is getting very strong now. I hate owning Kane and I want KDB

893bet

I see lots of -4 to remove Kane, add Pukki and upgrade a mid to KDB.

ThunbergsAreGo

I think a very knee jerky Kane to Haller move and then wait on Martial news

patmac

Kane to Aguero done, no Pukki, .1 short, that’s it I’m out of here having spent all afternoon watching shiite, I need a break. If I can’t score a bucketful of points with, VVD, Sterling,KDB, Salah and Aguero against Burnley and Brighton then I give up.

I feel ya

Lemlin

Did Kiko Fermenia to Kelly yesterday. I might just go Kane to Aguero for a -4.

I have 1.2 in the bank.

Dempsey

Cant do Kane to Aguero either

Thinking about wildcarding to sort out my team

manual_man

Mike Dean out, my Granny in

ThunbergsAreGo

Kane, Robbo Dendonck to Wan B , Haller and KDB?
Minus 8 or is that madness

A bit of a cop out, but bank instead of spending it all.
If it's a first world prob shave on the GK spot perhaps.

I went for Martin Kelly in the end to free up 0.5. Worked out well as I can now afford Kane to Kun.

Dempsey

Wildcard to do the following:

Laporte -> Pieters
Kane -> Aguero
Rico -> Lundstram
Robertson -> TAA
King -> Pukki

Worth doing?

Downgrading Laporte seems to be the only way to make a move that I want and then I'm into points hits

Looking to get KDB in for Perez.
Would have to downgrade Kane to make this happen though.

Will likely bank the transfer until international break.

Bank is out the window

Aguero is giving me those buy me eyes.

Undecided now between,
Perez-Kane
to
Either

5.7MF-Aguero

Or

KDB-Abraham

Yeah id like to see him get more games first.

I would prefer him to a 5.7 or less midfielder though

I’d prefer aguero to kdb (I have had kdb since start )
And here is the very simple reason why
I will never captain kdb . I will never even consider it
If i have Aguero and city have a good fixture I’ll captain him
It’s too hard to predict kdb returns in any given game and he won’t get enough goals

Very true

I was thinking about it from the fact id rather have the player scoring goals than providing assists.

Captain options is another good point, itll give me 3 captain choices in attack, Salah, Sterling and Aguero rather than 2, as I'd never captain KDB over Sterling.

That is a great point but that extra money makes a difference

It's Aguero Haller Dendoncker

Vs

KDB Haller Pukki

I’m pulling the trigger on this. wildcard time

Dubh Geannain

Camarasa has gotten auto subbed every week so far me me and dropped to 4.9 with nothing of note coming off the bench.

Now, with Palace winning I have no idea what Woy will do next so I need to find a gem of a starter for 5.1

Edit: Looking like Cantwell

sheroman01

Would love to WC but still feels too early. Have 3 problems though in Kane, King and Jorginho.

Currently thinking Pukki in for Kane.

How good is Mount? Will he keep up this form do we think?

It’s never too early! If your think you will get a bounce in points over the next couple of GW’s by WC then go for it

Tusky

Thoughts on this team? 0.2 in the bank. Tempted to sell Vardy and bring in Puki. But surely Vardy will get points in an attacking Rodgers team?

Emerson - Button

Robertson - Van Dyke - Zinchenko - Lundstram - Simpson

Salah - De Bruyne - Mount - McGinn - Dendoncker

Vardy - Kane - Greenwood

I think you need Sterling and/or Aguero - they have 9 goals between them after 3 games. If you can only get one, then probably Aguero as he'll be on penalties.

In addition I think you have too much spent in defence, Liverpool haven't had a CS yet, so would probably downgrade one of them, and obv to get one of Sterling/Aguero you will have to dump one of the city lads - Is Emerson worth 6m+?

Good points.

What about?

Kane -> Aguero
Robertson -> Digne
Zimchenko -> 5.7m defender (any ideas?)

Did someone on here suggest, or confirm, that Aguero has retired from international football ?

Or do we have to wait until for the upcoming international games before we know for sure ?
