    Haven't heard Amrabat's name pop up at all on Boards since the season started. Is he worth a punt? Only 5 million and he did seem to have potential last year but didn't get game time.

    Vardy to Zlatan has to be tonight. Already lost out on a bit of money delaying this transfer. Sanchez will have to drop to someone else, he's just not on it at all this year (although he looked a bit brighter when Özil (who would himself be tempting but too dear) made his appearance).

    God I can't decide on this one:confused:

    I'm anticipating The Beast to unleash all his frustration on a ragged Bournemouth defense. I think i'm going to get him in. Now just to a get a few FSA'ers to board the bus

    I have two Palace players already which is two too many. I will not be boarding this bus sir. Yes I know I already have a return ticket (2FTs) but I will not board this bus sir.

    I will not. Sir please don't put my luggage in the compartment bellow. Sir you don't understand I have responsibilities now and I cannot take a bus journey when I already have my own private Spacecraft where I have my little Souare's....

    I'm also a fan of the beast like many others but I'd like to see if Pardew is currently on his winning or losing streak. Negredo on form at the moment.

    That's Mr P aboard then


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,278 ✭✭✭NapoleonInRags


    Firmino --> Barkley
    Gray --> Bentekkers

    A pre-wildcard punt on the big lad...

    Negredos nickname is The Beast
    So this is all rather confusing !
    Let's stick to Bentekkers :D
    I'll be closely watching him midweek

    La Bestia??? (for Negredo) :D

    p.s. for Palace's home game tomorrow i reckon he'll get a run-out towards the end, be surprised if he starts but wait and see

    Evening all,

    Bit of advice needed please!

    Foster/Heaton
    Stones/Shaw,McAuley/Amat/Friend
    Tadic/Firmino/Mahrez/Townsend/Fletcher
    Grey/Kun/Ibra

    2 FT, 0 ITB

    Thinking I could downgrade Townsend to Capoue and go Firmino to Hazard? Would leave me with 0.3 ITB

    Mahrez worth keeping?

    Anything else jumping out?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,858 ✭✭✭Manutd_4life


    Guys should I play Morgan, Amat or Friend for the next game.

    I already have Shaw and Stones but can't quite decide on who should take the last spot

    Who're you leaning towards yourself?

    If you're spending 5.0 on Morgan at home to Swansea and you don't play him then why have him at all when we're so constrained budget wise to begin with?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭shineon23


    Negredo or Benteke...... Benteke or Negredo...... Negredo or Benteke...... Benteke or Negredo...... God I can't decide on this one

    What is Benteke's grasp of Spanish like?

    That'd be a deal breaker for me at the moment.

    Good point, I was leaning with Morgan and after that I guess he's in then!!


    Also I'm still undecided on Feghouili. I have 1 FT and .4 mil in the bank. Should I transfer him out and for who??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,989 ✭✭✭Trimm Trabb


    Just did Firmino to Bolasie - partly influenced by possible price drop, partly influenced by Firmino looking fat and having a top knot.

    Want to do Gray to Benteke for a hit but going to try and restrain myself.

    Pissed that it looks like Townsend will drop this week - at 6.5 it hardly seems like he is a player to be losing patience with.

    For the next two weeks or so: Negredo. In form. Give Benteke a few weeks to play and make a connection with his new teammates.

    Benteke - get him while he's at his cheapest and a differential. He will most likely be on pens, should be energised by his move and has great fixtures.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Those looking to bring in Benteke, ye are aware that he hasn't kicked a ball since a 3 minute appearance against Sweden on 26th June?

    He didn't play a single minute pre-season at Liverpool. I'd be inclined to give him a few weeks to get up to speed as I can't see him playing 80+ minutes anytime soon in the league.

    Ramirez probably the best of those with upcoming fixtures in mind (Snodgrass i like but Hull's fixtures are terrible). Otherwise i might mention Zaha. He's a bit of a punt, but he's played 90 mins in both of Palace's 2 games and has had chances, and might profit off Benteke's arrival and also Palace's fixtures are nice (home to Bournemouth this gw, who's defense is the worst in the league i.m.o.) £5.5m also and am considering him myself

    Thanks for your reply. Should have mentioned I have townsend and don't wanna double up on palace for obvious reasons. Having a read on twitter last night and januzaj had impressive stats for sunderland. Worth considering.

    Firmino --> Barkley
    Gray --> Bentekkers

    A pre-wildcard punt on the big lad...

    Gray had a goal and assist last weekend and you are selling him? That is not the way to succeed in FF.

    And you are bringing in a player who had a bad year. You have no clue what shape he is in, remember he was part of Belgium's Euro squad.

    Gray away to Chelsea this weekend. Like I said it's a punt before a WC after the international break.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 266 ✭✭mcgooch


    Benteke might get some minutes in the league cup game tonight, so his prospects for the coming gameweeks can be better assessed. If he scores or contributes significantly during the match then he has to be a differential consideration given Palace's upcoming fixture run.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 95 ✭✭sneachtafear


    A lad in my league has wild carded this week and has a team value of 102 million. With team value more important this year I wonder have we made a mistake not wild carding. We won't be able to afford the same team. Last year there were not as many increases during international breaks due to it being a popular wildcard time. Lesson learned for next year.

    God I can't decide on this one:confused:

    I've taken a chance on tekkers (had just enough to swap deulofeu/firmino/vardy for barkley/hazard/tekkers)

    Negredo's next fixtures are tricky: wba (A), Palace (H), Everton (A), Spurs (H), W.Ham (A)

    Benteke can be "integrated" today on league cup against blackpool having the following tasty fixtures: Bournemouth (H), Boro (A), Stoke (H), Sunderland (A)

    But that's just me trying to convince myself of taking a good call... :cool:

    He is a good friend

    There were just couple of risers in last few days, for 102 it was more than just a wildcard, he must have started with good team in the first place.

    With a very good team;)

    That's one of my reasons for wanting to transfer him out if I'm being honest
