Gameweek 24 - Transfer Thread

COH

All aboard the Burnley defence train ...

Robertson > Mee
Mendy > Pope

Fran has a bone

Possibly a Burnley defender in or Pope. Will wait on Callum Wilson injury news

Shedite27

This train hasn't started well!

FA Cup midweek, so by next Thursday we should know the blanks and doubles schedule a bit better so definitely a week to hold off on the transfers fora few days

Shanee.

McCarthy > Martinez

Don't see the attraction of Burnely defenders - no CS in the last 4 games, and only 2 in the last 10 games. Just cause they have a DGW, doesn't mean that they are going to do much, and then do you want to have 2 of them for the rest of the season?

This is my thinking. Feels like getting Burnley is going to be a trap.

I might get one like Pieters (4.3) as likely to be a 4th/5th defender for the rest of the season but no guarantee they'll keep the CS.

High risk, high reward but feel 2 is going to be overkill.

Chilwelll/Reid to Lowton/Jesus for -4

It’s not as if they’ve all of a sudden forgotten how to keep clean sheets.

We’ve seen it time and time again over the last 5 years with Burnley - when they face teams in and around them in the table they always make it tough for the opponent especially at home.

And who says you have to keep them for the rest of the season? There’s a thing called a wildcard and if you have used that then you can use transfers to get rid of them.

Well they have only kept 2 CS in the last 10 - so i would say that they have somewhat forgotten the art of keeping CS. This season is not like any other season either.

How come there isn’t as much talk about Everton defenders with their double as Burnley ones?

I’m looking at Digne.

Form is temporary, Sean Dyche teams keeping clean sheets at home is permanent.

Everton probably more likely to keep a clean sheet against Fulham though than Burnley are over two games! Plus with Digne chance of attacking points.

I already have 2 city defenders and they're against man city in one of the games and they have pickford in goals

Burnley defenders are 4.5m, Digne is 6.0m

Easier to ditch a 4th/5th defender for Burnely defenders

extra gravy

Going to bank, have 3 City 2 Everton and Pope. That'll do.

How Soon Is Now

Already looking at -4 maybe more should of bloody kept Gundogan instead of Soucek.

gammygils

Soucek to Gundog I reckon. That was the plan anyway. Soucek suspension makes it easier

Commentators on Match of the day seemed to think there was a possibility the FA would reverse the red card decision since it looked like it was accidental so will be holding out to see how the appeal goes myself.

hawaii501

I've wildcarded, team is in a mess out of nowhere. Chilwell not playing, sick of Mccarthy in net. Now wilson injured and still have problems with keeping salah, kane and son

castletownman

Waiting to see how Chelsea game goes, but currently looking at bringing in Mount for Barnes, although I had initially earmarked CHO.

Chilwell starts tonight,

Salah scored, Kane scored, Son Scored,

Don't think there was any real need to wildcard the team -

How Soon Is Now

Calvert Lewin for Antonio and Sterling for Salah or Gundogan for Soucek.

That would be a minus four and id have City Defender and Midfielder and Calvert Lewin for that double game week.


Dunno how I stand with Burnley, to be honest, was originally going to go with Mee but now im not sure.

ThunbergsAreGo

Robertson out, will decide later who in.

Probably Lowton to let me go Bamford to Kane for GW26

keane2097

Rudiger is looking a serious option now

Probably should have waited but I've gotten rid of Salah now and improved the defence/bench. Have now got 2 city defence while keeping Kane and Son though and players that'll play on the bench.

Shedite27

Gundog has to come in, Barnes gone.

How Soon Is Now

Jesus Christ why does everyone make transfers so quick! Calvert Lewin Gundogan going up very soon by looks of it still have game tomorrow and Fa cup during week. Don't wanna rush transfers before those games.

Rikand

For how long will Kane be price locked since his flag was removed?

i checked the rules but I didnt see it mentioned and I cant remember what it was. Was it something like 10 days ?

sheroman01

Coufal > Lowton most likely.

Have 2FTs but not sure I’m sold on anyone else. I’ll have Lowton, Cancelo, Sterling, Gundo, DCL.

Did Soucek to Gundog last night because Soucek looked like dropping and Gundog looked a certainty to rise - Now I know Soucek is gonna rack up 20 points against Sheffield United next game

nullObjects

Zaha to Soucek and Wilson to DCL

Worth keeping Soucek for a bit longer now I think. Mitchell seems to be too much of a rotation risk so will probably drop him out for Lowton this evening in the hope he can get a double clean sheet this week. Will allow me to still have enough in the bank to go Wilson to Kane with next weeks free transfer if Wlison's ham string injury looks to keep him out for a while.

Shanotheslayer

Tempted to take a -8

Kilman - Mee
Wilson - DCL
Son - James Rod

Was thinking J rod mightnt start against City with the derby being 3 days later.

I'm short .1 for Bernardo to Lowton, is Pieters nailed for the DGW as I can just afford him!

They havnt been clean sheet happy recently so Taylor is likely to come back in when fit. Whenever that is.

Leeds are a tough one, no double in 26 but Dallas and Raphina looking really really good

Yeah which is what makes them so tempting.

Want to BB in GW26 though.

How Soon Is Now

Looking at possibly selling Soucek and Antonio good idea / bad idea?

Gundogan and Calvert Lewin are two players im looking at. There's also option of selling Salah instead.

Selling Antonio ahead of Sheff United at home feels like asking for trouble.

There's a chance he could do well but I taught the same before the Fulham match. Calvert Lewin plays twice and im not taking out Bamford or Kane.

Calvert Lewin probably is a better option than Antonio for this specific week but there has got to be a better transfer available to you somewhere else in your team I think.

Martinez / McCarthy

Shaw, Stones, Dallas / Coufal, Mitchell

Grealish, Maddison, Salah, Fernandes / Soucek

Bamford, Antonio, Kane

2.7 in the bank one free transfer.

If it was me I’d bring in a defender for Mitchell. Digne?

I taught about him but don't see Everton getting many clean sheets atm. Plus I think im fairly ok in defence for the moment. If it was a double game week change alone id go with Burnley.

Salah is a big issue he's not performing at all and long term im thinking Son or maybe KDB at some point but at the moment id like to get Gundogan or maybe Sterling.

Yeah a City midfielder is never a bad shout. One way or another 3 City players feels like a must.

I think the most I can afford this week be two. One way or another I reckon I'll have to wait see how Fa Cup goes before doing anything. Just wish there prices weren't going up so soon ffs.
