GW 18 - Transfer Thread

gammygils

I still have Zaha in my team I only held because of his fixtures (Fulham & Bournemouth) I planned to get rid for Mount in GW 19 for the doubler

Or I might do Martial out for Mitrovic

Mr Crispy

Was gonna roll but I'll have to replace James (again).

dahat

James out Botman in.

Loads in the bank now so wondering where to spend it all.

Was considering Mitrovic in for Nunez but think I’ll give Nunez another game. Had Mitro earlier in the season and he’s solid enough for a goal. But Palace did only have 9 players which made it easier to haul, doesn’t get double digits often. Having said all that I’ll probably bring him in the following week with 2 games

James to Robertson most likely. Have Kepa, so dont fancy doubling up with Cucurella.

Quite like Robertson too but Pool's defence is awful right now. Relying on attacking returns from a 6.8m defender isn't ideal.

Cartman78

Shaw most likely....can't believe I went with James tbh, not tuned in at all this season

Tbf his ceiling is so high, it's hard not to get sucked in. I did too. Shaw likely to be my replacement too.

Castagne ---> Amartey

Dalot ---> Bueno

Trossard ---> De Bruyne

Edouard ---> Greenwood

Ward

Trippier...Schar...Saliba

Salah...Odegaard...De Bruyne...Martinelli...Almiron

Why would you play the WC now when you basically had unlimited free transfers during the WC??

Chelsea spurs City and Fulham all gave DGWs coming up - this is not the week to WC imo

I'm actually thinking of rolling myself. I have a James replacement internally as it is.

Going into DGW19 with 2 FTs might be an advantage where funds can redistributed better and easier.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen back to back wildcards

A strong no from me. Keep your WC. The only upgrade there is Trossard to KDB and the downgrades aren’t worth it.

And that bench is just asking for trouble.

macraignil

Already moved on Darwin for Mitrovic.

Med101007

Think I'll keep my FT this week for the double GW19. Just have one decision to make for this week then:

Botman or Pereira to start?? Both have attractive fixtures this week so I'm stuck on which one to bench.

thefallingman

I'd already done akanji and zaha to cancelo and almiron and now i have james injured but i'll bench him till next week then sell, nunez and martial are on trial this week for me

KurtBarlow

Is Shaw a better option than Gabriel ?

Cartman78

Gone for Shaw myself.

Half tempted to go Wilson to Havertz as well but not sure if it's worth it

thefallingman

i have shaw too until dalot comes back, no captains thread anymore ? prob 90% haaland anyway

Gabriel is the third highest scoring defender in the game with almost double the points scored in the game so far this season by Shaw. I think Manchester United may have some improvement in the second half of the season but I'm not convinced it will make Shaw score more than Gabriel over the remaining games.

Ended to doing James to Botman, preferred him long term over Shaw.

Liverpool unchanged, for whoever fancies another evening of Nunez chaos!

Here's hoping that Darwin's theory of evolution results in this particular species becoming a goal scorer tonight.
