    Mane + 4m Def

    or

    Barkley + 5m Def?

    Barkley has the kinder fixtures for the next few, add in Pullisball and it's a good combo imo.

    Last chance for Stones today. Even though they were unlucky in the first two matches to concede it gets frustrating. Cleanie or gone.

    Is barkley the best option for Everton midfield?

    Just done
    Forster - Foster
    Mahrez - Hazard
    Firminho - Ozil

    Had no attacking coverage from Chelsea or Arsenal. The swapping of the keepers was to gain the .4. I know it's VERY early to make transfers especially with the break looming but i had the exact amount so a .1 swing would have shagged me. Now just gotta pray for a clean bill of health after the internationals. It's my first hit and I'd 2 very good weeks and an average week this week so hopefully this gamble pays off.

    There is Barkley, Mirallis and Bolaise to choose from, i have Mirallis so as with other clubs it's a case of pick your player and stick.

    He is added to a long list of players, quite alot of inform players this season especially the big hitters who are in good form. Quite a different puzzle to last season.

    Have Ozil in my wildcard team but Sterling is going to need monitoring, could use the FT after the United game to get him in if necessary

    Quite likely I'll hold Aguero through his ban, Capoue vs West Ham isn't the worst sub to have.

    Based on today, you would have to look at him. But I couldnt do it to myself, he is ridiculously streaky. For me, he falls into the Lukaku and BUIB category of players

    Brought Capoue in for Spacecraft just before the rise.

    Any transfers from here are for a hit or a wildcard but I can now do Mahrez to Sanchez and leave myself with a million in the bank

    Waiting on news of Aguero and Gray bans now.

    Gray I could have dealt with and played my fourth defender or fifth mid.

    Aguero is different. Very tempted to push the wildcard button. That would allow me to:
    - Get sanchez
    - change Aguero to a high price striker like Costa that I can change back when needed.
    - Chop Stones
    - Change Gray to Negredo

    The fly in the ointment is Sanchez having to travel for international games and having inconsistent form so far this season.

    good thinking on the high price replacement for aguero
    makes the switch back easier
    If only Kane had any type of form as they have a nice run ...........

    Do folks think Antonio is a viable mid-term option? His position seems to chop and change quite a bit

    WC active to beat the rise for Hazard. Waiting to hear on Aguero and Gray bans as well so that could change my thinking

    This seems like a better option alright than spreading the funds throughout the team. Lukaku could be worth a punt if anyone was brave enough!

    Will Iheanacho start if Aguero gets banned?

    Might go for

    Grabban -> Iheanacho
    Aguero -> Kane

    Lukaku + Bolasie
    or
    Benteke + Barkley?

    I don't know why you would be bringing Benteke or Lukaku at this stage but I'd definitely go with Barkley/Benteke out of those options.

    It's going to depend on bans, but doomsday if Lamela, Gray and Aguero are done.

    If Aguero gets 3 games, then I think my plan would be:
    Wildcard
    Aguero to Costa
    Lamela to Sanchez
    Cazorla to Capoe

    The last move is to leave enough funds to get Aguero back on a straight swap with Costa. I might hold Santi for the three weeks and make that move at the end.

    Costa is the only one I like at that price point. Rooney is productive points wise but not playing well. Giroud/Lukaku/Benteke are interesting but no track record this season.

    The lack of European games for Chelsea is massive - they should be able to do what Leicester did last season and play a first choice XI each week

    Why not? Both capable of decent scores, Everton have a great run of fixtures.

    Lukaku has zero goals and one assist in his last 11 League games.

    Benteke has spent a season sitting on his back side at Liverpool and has had no pre-season. I think he will be a great buy, but I'd be looking to give him a few games to get up to speed 1st. Oh, hes managed by Pardew which never helps!

    Some foreign lad on Twitter with over 100k followers and a blue tick beside his name, says Aguero has pulled out of the Argentina squad due to injury.

    Looks like the story might have legs. Should know more soon if it's true.

    If he does have an injury, its unlikely to be anything serious though as you would think we would have heard something after the game if it was noteworthy. I suppose you never know though.

    Should find out today whether he'll get the ban anyway.

    I have Hazard, Aguero, and Zlat so I can't fit Sanchez in now. Instead, I'm gonna do Cout and Payet (wtf is going on with him?) probably out for Ozil and Sterling. Probably.

    Edited: Oh this whole Aguero & Gray thing may change my plans. In which case, if Aguero is banned, I'll probs get Sanchez and someone? Yay fpl.

    If Aguero, Gray and Lamela could simply behave themselves that would be great! Wildcard depending on what the FA decide to do with them.

    Payet had a long, exhausting and miles above expectations season last year. He's been a good player for sevral years now but only became consistent under Bielsa in Marseille 2 years ago. Last year, not only he confirmed that but he became WH playmaker, sent them in Europe (well they're already out now...), got his place back in the French team for our Euro (not a given considering the argument he had with Deschamps a while ago), managed to "steal" a starting position to Martial and became a free kick "magician" and a playmaker for France too. All this in 10 months. He finished the Euro completely washed up. I think he even had a slight injury. He'll need a bit of time to come back to his best. There are also a lot more expectations around him and around West Ham.
