GW31+ Transfers

Banking
Off ye go

COH

Most likely going to wildcard out the majority of my BB team

ScummyMan

I am filled with regret and would like to keep my Free Hit team :P

False Prophet

Ozil has got to go, samatta prob as well. 3 attacking city against Chelsea. All in all probably have to wildcard

F1ngers

Will most likely bank, but that means keeping Auba + 3 x Sheff.

WC here I come.

Are prices changing tonight lads?

Mr.Nice Guy

Activated the WC.

I've brought back Martial for my first draft. I must be a glutton for punishment.

shmeee

Salah and Ings look like 2 who may drop tonight while Rashford goes up. Again data is so sensitive and could be tomorrow before price changes kick in.

FFF have reset data but again it's a pure guessing game for a few days yet.

16.2 million transfers made for GW 30+

extra gravy

I'd like Son for the West Ham game but would need to sell Mané, not sure that's wise this week. Although don't see Pool hammering Palace. I'll probably bank and make 3 transfers next week. Auba, Stevens and one of Mané/Salah will be on the chopping block.

Trimm Trabb

Will be going back to my GW 38 team after a free hit which is:

Pope

TAA Masina Taylor

Salah Son Fernandes KDB

Jimi Jota Rashford

Have enough in bank to upgrade a 4.0 to Maguire or AWB so will have a look at United on Friday and decide.

dahat

Likely to ship Sterling & Aguero for Kane & Mane once all get through the games ahead.

macraignil

Used one of my two free transfers already to go Aubemeyang to Vardy. Might bank the other one to have two to make an upgrade somewhere next week.

Why so soon ?
There are 10 more matches left in this gameweek
I think people need to be very careful with early transfers for remainder of season
Quick turnarounds for some gameweeks will make it less risky
But for this one I do not see the point in risking it

With both players still having a game this week, I’d have held off till Tuesday tbh

Thanks!

Sensible advice but just playing for fun and can always use my other free transfer to get someone else in if Vardy does not make it to the next round of games.

Cartman78

I was half planning on banking or minimal changes but looking at it now I'll have to fire up the wildy/WC/wildcard.

Will be focusing on teams that have something to play for....Chelsea & ManUtd jumping out along with Watford and possibly the likes of Leicester and Bournemouth

Other free transfer? Have I missed something?

I made no transfers last week as I had made the changes I wanted to my team over the break in games due to the lock down.

Is it defo saying you have 2 FT?

Only have 1 free transfer now since I already used 1 on swapping Vardy in for Aubemeyang. One of the reasons I had gone for Aubemeyang was his double game week and that is gone now and Arsenal sound like a team that have given up on this season from the comments during last nights game. Still hope Auba' gets a hat trick at the weekend though.

Morzadec

Think i'll likely FH this week, with the unlimited transfers team looking decent enough in 32, then WC in 33.

I'm hoping this added info of two weeks makes for a more effective WC to see out my season, to get a sense of how early subs and rotation is affecting things, and to see what teams still have something to play for in the last 6 matches.

Also deals with the Liverpool question nicely - only have TAA in my team. This way I can max out with Salah and Mane at home to Palace and they'll move out of my team in 32 away to City where I'm happy not to have my funds invested in them. Then in 33 I can reassess - have Liverpool won the league? Are they resting the likes of Salah and Mane? May not need to bring them in at that point and focus more on the teams with something to play for.

I also like this week to FH, I think there's some nice fixtures there to make the most and the likes of Kane or Vardy might be good for a 1 week punt

Interesting, I didn't know you could roll an unlimited transfer.

ThunbergsAreGo

I am very much liking the FH 31, WC 32 strategy, makes a lot of sense as more time for information and fixtures settings

Leaning towards FH31 ok.

Might leave the WC until 33. Get the City v Liverpool game out of the way, as well as the Cup games. Don’t fancy setting up a WC in 32 and watching loads of my players playing a cup game, before they play a league game.

Dearg81

Is anyone with a wild card and freehit left saving them? I might just take a hit to get Vardy and Son in this week and save the chips for another week.

The real mccoy 91

No chance kun starts monday and Thursday so will be on watch over the weekend for replacements aubas fixtures looks so nice and I'm not ready to throw him on the list after only playing city. Kane too but imagine he will be eased back in so may look to a cheaper forward and get another premium mid

dahat

Jose not the type to mind players, if Kane is for he will play until he breaks.

Yea I agree although as always I think Son is the better choice.

Looks at Doherty with gooey eyes

The plan at the moment is to bank and then take a hit for GW32+.

touts

Was going to bank barring injuries. Have Leno so that's the bank option gone.

Chesty08

Don’t know what to do

dahat

Fairly sure I'll free hit as I've no Salah/Mane.

I can assess after that if I need to get one in till season end. This will involve a -8 as I've no wildcard left.

Rikand

Might wildcard to try get back most of the team I had before this gameweek

Same for me, especially as Henderson is my other keeper. Need to get one in.

Xterminator

i need to replace leno and my budget is 5.1m

i cannot afford the big hitters - would I be mad to buy arsenals reserve GK ? fixtures not that bad for a while.

what are the other options with 5.1 mil?

Arsenal are bad
Do not buy
There are plenty of other options in the 4.5- 5 range

Maybe as your 2nd keeper if you are going for a cheap bench on a WC.

No way I’d have him as my number 1 keeper.

You might want to rethink that idea about Aubameyang.

You gotta go with his holiness mr. Pope

4.9 million and his next 4 fixtures are decent clean sheet opportunities

macraignil

Think I will have to go Leno to Patricio. McCarthy kept a clean sheet at the weekend but they will meet bigger challenges than Norwich and don't think I can trust him as my only goalkeeper.

Would prefer not to waste a free transfer on changing goalkeepers but it's probably the sensible option.

You could put up with McC for the next two GWs. I don't think you'd want him for the next three after though so he's a transfer waiting to happen. (Fab could cover them three say for example or someone even cheaper could become an option)

If you don't have a Wolves defender he is poor cover with a lower ceiling at a more expensive price point and many will consider 3 Wolves for the run in.

normanoffside

Probably Lundstram to Justin

km79

Bearing in mind i have no chips left would you
A - Swap Boly for Doherty
B - bank as planned.

I have a feeling Jota will be benched but want to give the double act one game just in case and I am not really sure who I would sell him for anyway...........
Although I do have .1 to spare on Jota to Rashford and double United attack

I’m now thinking of taking a hit for:

Grealish and Auba out
Son and DCL in

Grealish is annoying me wholesale. I think I’ve owned him for over half the season so a fresh face would be nice now.

Son has disappointed me this season too but Spurs have good fixtures and he’s their best option.

With no chips left I’m going to have to make most of these transfers count.

Not for a hit

shmeee

Be close to a move in price on Auba tonight and United assets the opposite way. I've WC active so won't wait around anyway.

Bruno only united asset I'll invest in.

That’s sensible yeah I guess it’s not worth it.

Sticking to saving the transfer might be my best option.

You just know auba will score if you sell him for a hit
The quick turn around this week makes it easier to bank.
I am still debating myself whether to bank (bench even with that will have Grealish away to newcastle and Charlie Taylor at home to Watford
or
Boly to Doherty
or
be a complete and utter hypocrite and sell Jota for Rashford and have double united attack!

I know I too should bank and then see how things look.

I am also looking at Son longer term . I will be selling Salah or Mane in 2 weeks . I do not have KDB though..........
Grealish and/or Barnes will go for Sarr and someone else
That is nearly my seaons worth of transfers so I do not know if i can justify either of those 2 moves this week

Yeah Auba is a really weird player to own. A premium striker you’re never comfortable to captain but by season’s end is always up there amongst the highest scorers.

I think banking is your best bet. Have another gameweek’s worth of data to assess and then try to capitalise with 2 frees for 32+.

I am looking at it now
United really do have unreal fixtures. But do I really believe double attack is warranted
City after Liverpool game are the same. May have to get KDB as a blocker.
Wolves are a team I want to keep three players from.I am not sure I have the right 3 tbh. Jiminez a cert. But Jota just does not play 90. If I sold him I could then get Traore for Grealish (stink fixtures) . But again his minutes are a worry. Coming on against a tiring defence is not a bad thing for him either though

So yeah I should probably bank!
