GW34 Transfer Thread

Chesty08

Musing my thoughts:

I believe City/Wolves is moving to DGW36

Just had a look and I have a team of DGWer’s for 36.

For 37 I only have 1 DGWer. So is a FH worth it then?

I would be with:

3 x Liv - away to Soton

1 x City - away to WHU (this will be 2 by then)

2 x Che - home to Leicester

2 x Spurs - home to Burnley

Who would I be transferring in with doubles

Villa - yes, Burnley - No, Palace - No, Everton - maybe 1 Richy at a push, Leicester - maybe 1 Maddison at a push depending on EL.

Looking at this I think I will FH in 34. I think with my current players & setup I could easily get 2 of Coutinho, Maddison and Richy at the time for a -4.

2 for me too Fitz. Although I'd be inclined to go Havertz over Mount if you can afford?

I'd say some injuries will pop up due to heavy schedule and make that decision easier, least you'll have option of FH for one of them, I'd be looking at Palace midfield though for double, someone like Galagher could land big

How Soon Is Now

The injury to Rudigar is annoying depending on how bad it is I might just play him anyway even if he plays one game he will probably outscore White on my bench.

Looking at getting rid of Weghorst or Borja for Pukki more then likely Borja cause Weghorst has another double.

Ozvaldo

Any chance of mount being rested in one of the games

Probably not at this stage with them out of Champions League and FA Cup Final not for a while yet

Palace games both away, but yes Gallagher or Zaha could be nice differentials. So does it become 2 of Coutinho, Maddy & Gallagher/Zaha or do I want 3? That would mean I’d be dropping one of Salah, City mid or Havertz.

You are right on the injury/rotation front. Looking at FH34 I would be changing 5 players, looking at FH37 I could be changing 2/3 which means I could navigate with a few transfers.

Unfortunately not, 0.1 short. But happy to have the Chelsea coverage at the same time. Mount should be a season keeper at this stage

Cartman78

Would it be worth going Harvey Barnes to Mount?

Any other viable route to Mount would need a hit so not sure think 🤔

dermey97

Anything that can improve this?? Free hit x2 left

markc91

Hadn't even considered using my fh before looking on here

Only 1 FH left but team was projected to score 51 before FH so think its worth using for an extra 30 points. Any changes I'm missing?

Really should have TAA or Robbo as least. Good team otherwise

dr.kenneth noisewater

Current FH team is

Ederson

TAA, Robbo, Cancelo, Alonso

Salah, KDB, Mount, Kulu

Pukki, Wood

3.9GK, Gelhardt, Amartey, Delph

Would like Werner over Wood but struggling to decide who to downgrade. Might get Gallagher in for Kulu also

Fitz*

Would you be tempted to go Sterling instead of KDB, if on FH?

This is an easy game for City, with the Real Madrid game on the horizon, so there is a bit of scope for resting players in this game. Because of his injury, I'd nearly guarantee you that KDB won't play 90 mins v Watford. He is more likely to start against RM, Leeds, RM IMO.

Sterling has an excellent record against Watford - 9 goals in 9 games overall, and scored in each of his last 6 games against Watford. I think Sterling starts this one, in order to give either KDB, Mahrez or Foden a rest. Mahrez always plays midweeks so I would think he will be rested from the start.

Just don't rate Sterling and hasn't scored in the league for awhile. Would love to get Mahrez in if he looked more nailed on. Tempted to change Robbo/Kulu/Wood to Matip/Havertz/Nacho but going to do more tinkering

Chesty08

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118961591#Comment_118961591

Is Ederson gonna get more then 6 - probably not. More upside with Laporte & can use to invest to get Kulu , Wood, Pukki to something more like Werner/Havertz.

Wpuld you consider Elanga with the 2 games? Like Wood just had a double & was pretty poor

dr.kenneth noisewater

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118962146#Comment_118962146

Yeah have been tinkering and have the below now with 0.2 ITB

Pope

TAA, Laporte, Cancelo, Alonso

Salah, KDB, Mount, Kulu

Pukki, Werner

3.9GK, Gelhardt, Amartey, Delph

sheroman01

Unsure on Laporte/Alonso and Mount/Havertz. I'll probably lean towards the latter in both cases.

Fitz*

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118962219#Comment_118962219

I'd go Laporte & Havertz myself. I think City have a better chance of a CS this week, and in future GWs. Laporte also has an added set piece threat too.

extra gravy

Will probably get Mount for either Raph or Kulu. Raph has pens but fixtures are poor after this week while Kulu has been ticking along nicely and Spurs have better fixtures so think I'll ditch Raph.

Chesty08

FH team. What are peoples thoughts on this one?

I’ll be playing 4-5-1 obviously. Should I go Mahrez instead of Jota?

rekluse

No FH'ers going Ronnie? Trying to squeeze him in, but struggling to get a balanced team with him.

Benimar

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118963492#Comment_118963492

Thinking about it. Can have:

DDG

TAA, Cancelo, Laporte, James

Salah, Mount, Havertz, Elanga

Ronaldo, Pukki.

No City attack, but who knows who starts with Pep!

Chesty08

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118963503#Comment_118963503

Thats not a bad team! There is high risk with City attackers but there really could be high reward!

I suppose you’re going for a DGW Ronaldo instead which is very appealing too

castletownman

Can't afford to take a hit on transfers beyond the standard free one (in contention for the money places in my ML).

Brought in Foden for Coutinho and lining up:

Dubravka

VVD-Davies-Mitchell

Salah-Havertz-Foden (c)- JWP-Bowen

Kane-Weghorst

Sa, Broja, Ait-Nouri, Kamara

Want to get rid of Broja and Weghorst in due course (and looking at JWP to Kulu next), and have opted for Foden for the arm-band as Chelsea are in a bit of a rut lately.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118963503#Comment_118963503

Looks Decent,

I'm on this currently:

Dubravka

Cucurella / Laporte / Robbo

Havertz / Mount / Salah / Foden / Elanga

Werner Ronnie

with 3 duds on the bench.

How Soon Is Now

Ended up going for Laporte and Pukki in for Rudigar and Borja -4.

Leaves me with this.

Schmeichel

Cancelo Laporte TAA Schar

Saka Barnes Havertz Salah [c]

Kane Pukki

Weghorst White Sissoko Bachmann

extra gravy

Ended up going with Havertz over Mount and captaining him. Hope it goes better than Wood(c) last week.
