Gameweek 35 - Transfer Thread

COH · 24-04-2022 9:34pm #1

Plenty of people wildcarding ahead of a GW36 bench boost... myself included! Pulled the trigger on it there this evening because my teams doing nothing and I had a few pints. Currently looking at the following team...

Schmeichel - Foster

Robertson - Matip - Alonso - Cancelo - Laporte

Salah - KDB - Saka - Mount - Kulu

Pukki - Dennis - Nketiah

Not sold on the front line at all but wanted KDB in so had to make some sacrifices... if City dont get their DGW36 though this will all change. Previous drafts had more Leicester/Spurs/Villa players but they look like rotation worries/garbage/on the beach respectively.

Players out were Ramsdale, Sanchez, James, Amartey, Livramento, Scharr, Maddison, Antonio, Weghorst and Kane.

Main rival is 40 points ahead of me but has used all his chips so hoping to make inroads there anyway but will probably still have my worst finish in years regardless as Ive been hovering around 200-250k OR for forever now.

Anyway whats you guys plan?

Father Hernandez · 25-04-2022 9:56am

A lot of my plans will rest on City getting the double in 36 and if so, will then play my last FH that GW.

Not wanting to lose a transfer, I'll probably take Schar out this week who has been weirdly dropped and replace with Roberts at Burnley. Will give me another DGW players for GW37.

May all change depending on the extent of Saka's injury.

Chesty08 · 25-04-2022 12:23pm

I have no plans & May just roll my transfer.

Im stuck with Martinelli, Cucho, Schar and Hwang. Only have 0.3m ITB. Don’t really have any players to be honest. Any ideas?

Think you have to sort out at least one of those problems. Schar for White or Davies for their upcoming double?

Fitz* · 25-04-2022 1:58pm

Howe had said that there was going to be rotation in their last game because of the games close together. I'm not convinced that he has lost his starting place, but he is coming into a run of games now where you wouldn't start him, up until 38.

At 4.4, he's an easy bench I think, unless you're very stuck.

Yea that’s not a bad option but I wouldn’t be confident either score much in those games.

But yes I probably need to at least cover my bench for rotation / injury reasons

Chesty08 · 26-04-2022 8:08am

Might do Martinelli to Ramsey. I know Villa have been woeful but think they’ll turn the corner for end of season run in , 4 of next 5 are at home

FastFullBack · 27-04-2022 7:20am

When will Citys DGW 36 be confirmed?

According to Ben Crellin if there is no announcement by this Friday then a move to GW37 is much more likely. As I've just a FH chip left that would suit me fine.

Looks like City double in GW36 now.

Chesty08 · 27-04-2022 2:24pm

With the news City double in 36, I might just go for a mad swoop (-8) of

Martinelli -> Ramsey

Kulu -> KdB

Kane -> Watkins

Id much prefer Coutinho over Watkins but I’ve no other options in forwards for 5.4m

whitelightrider · 28-04-2022 7:54am

Has there been any update on Saka's injury?

Currently 35 points ahead and have FH and BB left to use, but unsure what to do with the team!

Ramsdale, Sanchez

White, TAA, Cancelo, Dalot, Doherty

Saka, Jorginho, Salah, Berndardo, Kulu

Pukki, Kane, Dennis

Thinking of moving Kane on and keeping Dennis and Pukki. At least they're performing

Father Hernandez · 28-04-2022 10:30am

I think I'd like to keep Kane for this week. As bad as they've been last 2 games, they're still in the hunt for top 4 and up against Leicester who haven't set the world alight recently and are in Europe still, probably the focus too.

KDB's minutes might be managed too with Champions League and then get him in for the double for GW36 after this GW?

keane2097 · 28-04-2022 10:50am

Spurs have veered from great to crap in short order a couple of times since Conte came in. With the state of the league table I think the wholesale abandonment of Kane/Son is a bit foolhardy.

Fitz* · 28-04-2022 12:19pm

This is promising anyways. Seems to be a lot selling him too, he was close to a drop in price last night.

Not promising at all for non saka owners like myself hopefully he's out

How Soon Is Now · 28-04-2022 10:42pm

Looks like Barnes has lost his place in the first 11 didn't start again tonight. Thinking maybe swapping him for Coutinho.

Chesty08 · 28-04-2022 11:49pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118987340#Comment_118987340

Yes on 2nd thoughts I’ll be keeping & captaining Kane.

I have an feeling Havertz might be Benched & might go with a straight swap to Coutinho.

Now, the other alternative is to then move on Cucho for Nkietah for a -4,

On the flip side just bank, get more information & have 2 FT’s going in to DGW36?

Lemlin · 29-04-2022 9:15am

Foster, Ramsdale

Trent, Cancelo, Davies, Alonso (Matip)

Saka, Kulusevski, Salah, KDB, Mount

Nektiah (Dennis, Pukki)

Opinions on that WC? 0.4 in the bank.

dr.kenneth noisewater · 29-04-2022 9:16am

Will probably bank ahead of using BB next week and no great transfers jumping out to me. Have KDB/Kane so will need to decide if I try trade one for Salah next week or gamble they out score him

Are you bench boosting? Lot of money on the sideline if not.

Lemlin · 29-04-2022 9:42am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118991777#Comment_118991777

Have bench boost and FH left after this wildcard.

COH · 29-04-2022 9:44am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118991754#Comment_118991754

Looks good! I have almost the same WC team - just have Robertson/Laporte instead of TAA/Davies

Fitz* · 29-04-2022 10:03am

I think a lot of people will use 35 to set themselves up for 36 or 37+38 really, more than concentrating on 35. I'm still debating about whether to FH in 36 or 37.

My current team without transfers has 10 DGW players, but not exactly happy with all of them. Sa for example has a very tough DGW. And the Spurs DGW is tough too, so that would be Kane + Kulu and they are not exactly in form at the minute either. There could be some rotation in the Chelsea team in the 2nd game of the DGW before the FA cup final.

With only using FTs, I can change this to 9 DGW players, but switch out Kane and bring in KDB who I think can outscore Kane. 9 DGW players is a lot for a DGW, where a lot will be using FH to bring in 11.

I currently have 0 DGW players for 37 and if I FH then instead, I can have 7 DGW players and bring back in Kane for his easier game as lot will have him still.

I'm in a good position in a big ML so I'm trying to work out is it better to defend, or to attack and cement my place. I would kind of be sacrificing a big 36 score, try and keep pace with the FH and then score better in 37 instead.

I think you should keep Kane this week. KdB will most likely be off around 60th minute mark & Leicester will be heavily rotated.

I was actually looking at Havertz out for Coutinho because I don’t think he plays the 3 games between now & Cup final + he seems a 60/70 minute player.

I wouldn’t be rushing into 7 DGW players got the sake of it. You’ll still want some Liverpool/City & Arsenal/Spurs players
