    Selling Son before Watford at home is stupid IMO


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,726 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    C.Wilson in for Pukki, most likely.

    Jimi? Their fixtures turn after tomorrow, he’s down to 7.2 so not a huge stretch to get him in

    He’s at 87.6, a blank tomorrow could see him drop to 7.1

    Jimi dropped over nite, two assists today for 10 points

    If it wasn't for the international break I'd agree, just can't see him starting after the travelling


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,693 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Pukki due to drop tonite if that matters to anyone transferring him out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,393 ✭✭✭✭km79

    And the fact he is in a dysfunctional squad
    There is no reason to keep him at that price

    Really?

    I can't bring myself to sell Son home to Watford. Pooch might be gone by then. Although I think it's more to do with a split with the players more than the manager from what I read

    You are showing highlights of man city against Watford under their old manager to argue in favor of bringing in Son ???????

    Form over fixtures
    Spurs are toxic

    I said this before this weeks deadline too but people ignored it and brought son in and captained him and were suprised at the outcome

    As it stands right now
    Avoid all spurs and man united players
    I don’t care who they are playing

    Again
    Before this weekends fixtures when they faced the might of Brighton and Newcastle I said the same

    There is far far far better value in midfield than 9.5 on a spurs mid


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,607 ✭✭✭patmac


    Might dump Auba for Cilson and take a hit to get KDB in for Mahrezif he’s fit.

    We will be buying Watford defenders for GW 12 and maybe even before that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I've decided not to sell Pukki as it feels a bit knee-jerk to me. He's the fourth top scorer in the league and is next playing a Bournemouth side that have given up the fourth most chances. Very possible he gets on the scoresheet in that one and rewards those who kept the faith. I don't think his underlying stats are too bad either: two shots and three key passes against Villa.

    It's him and the team's away form that's the problem I believe.

    Pukki dropped in value last night,I got rid for Vardy who rose in value. I normally don't do early transfers before international games but had to due to the price changes.
    Salah also out for Mane.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    2 FTs think I'll be getting wilson with one of them. Seriously considering selling salah aswell.

    You said there's no reason to keep Son.

    Watford played Spurs next. I showed the highlights of the last time Watford played a team with a decent attack.

    I know there's rumours on Whatsapp about Christian Eriksens wife (he's not married btw). I know Spurs have had an awful week, but they're a team who put 4 past Palace a few weeks back, playing a team who conceded 8 a few weeks back.

    You're obviously not gonna be buying him, I'm just giving the poster the argument for keeping Son for another week.

    Whats people's opinion Matt Longstaff for Newcastle and Aaron Connolly for Brighton?? Both very cheap, look to be starting and had great games.

    I'd say the opposite tbh, buying Pukki was knee-jerk imo. Despite one shock win, Norwich are a poor team there is a reason that they are second bottom. They might get plaudits for some glorious defeats which is papering over cracks and is useless to them. They are conceding too many, worst defence in the league, and need to address that to have any hope of staying up. Pukki may pick up a few goals along the way but not enough to justify keeping him when there are other good options at similar price.

    I'll be doing Ashley Barnes to Lacazette for GW9

    Arsenal have a great run and Laca is bound to be up there in double figures at the end of the season.

    Hayden and Trossard take their places long term most likely


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,222 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside


    Pukki to Jimi is a straight swap for me and i'd like to do it but I also have KDB and Salah so I'll have to wait for news.

    MATT Longstaff is covering Hayden's suspension. He'll be back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,815 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    Bruyne for Son but if any doubt both Kevin I will keep Son as they are home to Watford


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,183 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    2fts. Pukki to Wilson or Vardy will be one. Leaning towards Wilson as I prefer his next 3. Will probably captain him too if I bring him in. Son to Maddison might be the other ft.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,120 ✭✭✭steve_r


    Not sure what to do. Salah and Aguero are eating up most of my budget so I can't go Pukki to Wilson which is what I want to do.

    Someone made the point that Pukki could be this season's Richarlison (or the season before that's Richarlison) - early goals that dried up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,183 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Current front 3 is Aguero, Pukki, Wickham meaning I have to play Cantwell every week in a 3-5-2. I have exactly enough to turn the front 3 into Vardy, Wilson and Abraham for -4. Three players I want and am really considering it now. Aguero has Palace away then two "easy" home games but I don't even know if he'll start both of those. If I'm paying 12million, I want a certain starter. Food for thought over the break anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,092 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno

    I'd prefer the second trio. Have aguero Abraham haller myself

    The only game Aguero didnt start he had a knock. Jesus will likely play the cups with Aguero in the league
