GW26 Transfers

Green&Red

With Porro injured and also not performing he is on the block. Looking at a.villa defender, tempted by Cash, apparently the only left footed defender fit for villa

gammygils

Have 4 blanks so Jota out for Hwang and save a few quid to get Mo back

Might take a hit and out Porro for Reguilon

Also have 1 point Perv

dr.kenneth noisewater

Looking at Jota to Neto. Probably wont get Salah back until GW30

Gary_dunne

Took a -4 last week to bring in Nunez, didn't work out too well in the end.

Have 3 blanks with Jota being one so he'll be gone. Not sure if it's worth another -4, maybe Nunez to Hojlund.

MercuryBoy

Hwang and Pau Torres in for me

Cartman78

Another hit on the horizon...

Porro and Jota out for Doughty and Saka

Gusser09

Jota for Garnacho.

Hope you haven’t done this yet because Doughty came off injured last night and also doesn’t have a game in 26 (guessing you know this and are just having him in place for 28 double).

Ace2007

Darwin & Jota to Watkins and Hwang

Haven't done anything yet...that Doughty news has left me in doubt alright.

Would love to get some Wolves attacking cover but can't get there this week

FTs or -4?

Cash is hardly left footed!

Either way I think you’re making those transfers. Appearances alone makes it a -2 on the 2nd transfer

-4, two players who don’t have a game, both potentially crocked, probably going to go down in value, and not having anyone to cover for them - but of a no brainier really.

Hwang was in flying form before the Asian cup, while every Tom dick and harry has Watkins and my alternatives are imjueeed so have to bring him in

shmeee

I'm half considering a FH this week. I've 8 players and 1FT. And of them 8 I've Estupinan, Foden and maybe finally Alveraz who could be "risks" for minutes. A bit of early team news could be carnage.

A FH 29 team doesn't seem to have the same ceiling as this week from a quick look at the potential assets for 29, many of who we can get into or have in our team already.

I'm stuck around 500k for weeks now on a yo-yo effect.

I've no Arsenal (apart from Saka), No wolves, and only Moreno from Villa.

Anyone else considering a FH26?

Never considered it and I think it would be a waste of the chip.

Gusser09

Just done Jota to Garnacho.

Will enable me to go for Salah next week.

When are people thinking WC? I have 5 blanks this week after some disaster moves for dgw.

Would it be mad to do the WC?!

Very soon. I'll settle on the core of my team for the run in.

Ouch, early movers punished here! Hojlund ruled out for up to 3 weeks.

Over 400k transfers in..... Didn't think it was that big, that's massive!

If already took a -4 for him, would people now take a -8. Could be hits galore!

jocombo

Ouch is right. Might just bench him and hope the other 11 all start. Bring in Solanke next week who has a great run of fixtures

Ace2007

wont be captaining him now so

De Zerbi even rotates the players at his dinner table.

A leak tomorrow on his status would be glorious.

Hope he is a good cook, wouldn't want any absences due to food poisoning !

Yeah Right

Looking for advice on a one week punt.

I've wildcarded and will be bringing Salah in after the blank GW. Leaving funds in the bank to bring him in, so that means I have one spot that I need to fill this week until I bring Mo in.

Current Team is:

Raya (Kellehr)

Maguire Saliba Gusto (Van Hecke Bradley)

Saka De Bruyne Gordon Palmer [FREE SPOT]

Watkins Haaland (Muniz)

So, no real restrictions on price. I had Mitoma in there but he's just been yellow flagged. Looking at maybe Bowen, Foden, Douglas Luiz, Gross? I have my fill of Arsenal players already or I'd get Odegaard. Am I better off getting rid of Raya for someone else and sticking him or another Arsenal mid in?

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121809016#Comment_121809016

Hee Chan?

Tasty fixture.

Yeah Right

Good shout. I hadn't considered Wolves at all. I've had a look at putting Onana in Raya's place, makes room for Odegaard and frees up money to upgrade Gabriel to Saliba.

Porthallian

Start Emerson or Estupinan? Also have Areola starting so unsure of double WHAM defence.

MaxPower89

Darwin and Palmer out for Hwang and Solanke. Taking a bit of a risk with Palmer, hopefully it doesn't backfire. It was one of Odegaard, Richarlison or Palmer that had to get the boot for Hwang.

Trying to mull over a few decisions;

Jota -> A Wolves MID, or Bailey. Wolves have a bit of attacking form and some nice fixtures in the short to medium term. GW29 is not guaranteed yet but probably will blank. Bailey has quietly been scoring points and has a guaranteed game in BGW29, albeit there might be some rotation with European games.

Possible -4 for Nunez -> Solanke. Will mean that all Liverpool assets will be gone but sets me up for DGW28. Again no guaranteed for BGW29 but the fixtures around that week are good. This would mean a big benching headache though.

• Do I go all-in on Arsenal defence and bench Gordon against Arsenal?
• Or bench Gabriel and start Gordon and just hope for one or the other returning points?
• Or bench Ake and hope Solanke has some goal involvements against City?
• Or bench Pau Torres as Villa are conceding lately (2 CS in 9 games) but surely his return helps them defensively?
• Or just bench Solanke which is a complete waste of a -4?

If I had a benching headache I wouldn’t be taking a -4.

gammygils

The Rasmus out now is a right pain in the Gregory I'll have to take a hit now to get 11 so maybe Watkins in but that's gonna hit my Mo money for next week

So another -4 next week already FS

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121810733#Comment_121810733

True!

But headaches are part of the fun of planning! 😁

I've decided to go with Solanke, and I'll bench Ake more than likely. The price rise in Solanke last night partly having some influence. There is the risk of an Ake benching anyways but after the midweek bench, I'd have faith in him starting. But Bournemouth at home are capable of scoring and Ederson is poor this season and capable of conceding. Man City defence is not massive owned so it's not a big a hit if they do keep a CS. Whereas Arsenal defence is massively owned so a double Arsenal defence return gives me a small bit of an advantage. The ceiling is bigger there.

The dilemma of Wolves mid vs Hwang I could put off til today and see if I get team news. I think Hwang has the better fixture today but Bailey has more fixtures in the next few weeks and a guaranteed fixture in BGW29 which negates the need to FH. my main rivals in my mini league have both already used FH and won't have many players in 29.

mobydopy

Should I start Charlie Taylor over Estupinan? Worried about both of their minutes tbh

crushproof

KDB benched

extra gravy

Last minute KDB to Gross -4, will probably regret it

COH

Ill be lucky to have 9 playing this week

Taylor starts, Estupinan does not. 🙄

Estupinan benched

Worst transfer of the season

Honestly a disaster. I thought he'd be in the first team after being in De Zerbis house for dinner during the week!

FFS , switched to starting Estupinan 5 mins before the deadline after asking reddit. Should have stuck to my gut

That's a ludicrous conclusion you came to.
