I -12 last week and -8 this week. I can honestly say I regret it!

How bizarre exact same situation here. haven't pulled the trigger though

Not sure where to go from here. After a good wildcard initially and shooting up to 13k the next 3 gws have been poor to very poor, and now sitting at 100k.

Still hoping the -8 this week will be a big step in the right direction to sorting it.

Need to let the dust settle thru the internationals. A -4 very likely this week. Arsenal defence looks essential. Soton not far behind although fixtures not kind.

Took a hit to get Walcott in for Bolasie today so I can catch the rise on Theo tonight or tomorrow. Will be an anxious wait now to make sure everyone comes back healthy from the international break.

Also did Baines to Pieters.

i made a gw points profit on a -16 once. risky, and certainly not to be advised to make a habit of monster hits, but it can work out!

There surely can't be that many transfers that need to be made immediately or is it a total mess?

Don't really see how any defence is essential. People were saying the same about ManU after their back to back cleanies. Leicester defence going quietly under the radar with a good run coming up and 1m cheaper than Arsenal defence

stephenl15 · 02-10-2016 09:22PM

Arsenal defence all at least 6m. Sure how are you supposed to afford that

Those next 3 fixtures though. I would only be able to afford Cech.

I do like owning Fuchs and that could happen...probably a better shout that Cedric/Bertie for now.

Cech.

dsmythy · 02-10-2016 09:26PM

Well I've calmed down a bit about Captain Zlatan fail. He's blanked in 3 out of 7 games.

But then again

Aguero has blanked in 2 of 5.
Sanchez has blanked in 4 of 7.

Hes not alone and his stats are good and like Aguero and Sanchez maybe I could expect him to come good.

Still no Costa blanked in just 1 game or KDB the same.

So he might still be sold! For Costa or maybe Defoe if I want to spread funds.

Ziegler1988 · 02-10-2016 09:27PM

Expensive GKs aren't my taste, rare they get bonus or save points. Especially with two starting 4.0m GKs

Feck that don't like those premium keepers :P Heatford ftw

shineon23 · 02-10-2016 09:52PM

Zlatan being shipped out for me anyway.

Probably for Costa.

I'd rather have a suspended Costa than Zlatan at the minute, at least Diego is a bit of Craic to own.

Likely taking a minus 4 to get Vertongen or a Southampton defender.

Will be waiting as long as possible. Don't want a repeat of one of the international breaks last year where I had to make 5 transfers and -16 due to an early transfer and injuries piling up.

bantee · 02-10-2016 10:38PM

Lovren > Holebas and Tadic > Son for a -4 before rises/drops.

Iused2likebusts · 02-10-2016 10:41PM

I reckon I'm going to pull the trigger tonight on baines mane and rodwell to pieters Walcott and son. It would see me move back to 343 from a 433. I gave the 433 four weeks hasn't worked for me. Its a -8 and have to do it tonight as Walcott and son are going up and I only have the exact money.

I'm did similar transfers - capoue, Fletcher and Zlatan to Walcott, Son and Austin. I also had the exact money for them. Gives me a strong front 8 so gonna play all out attack next week.

playing the aoa myself and I got in austin last gw.

spock. · 02-10-2016 11:18PM

Mane, Diomande --> Son, Austin -4

To start Capoue or Valencia will be the big decision but I'll leave it about 10 days

Hogey007 · 02-10-2016 11:18PM

I've gone with ibra & capoue to Deeney & Walcott with my 2 ft.
Wasn't overly comfortable with capoue as 4th mid when snodgrass was my 3rd. Happier now with snodgrass as 4th. I've also gained enough to switch sterling to any midfielder bar de bruyne so might look at that in the next game week.
I won't rule out getting ibra back soon as he's been very unlucky in last 2 games but just don't see much happening in next 2 matches away to Liverpool & Chelsea plus he'll probably fall at least .2 in that time.

Calvin · 02-10-2016 11:25PM

Hmmm..trying to decide on Defoe, Deeney or Costa to replace Ibra. Then possibly Son for Capoue and maybe a Southampton defender in for Williams. Then there's my GK situation with Pickford and Jaku..

What would you do if you cashed in on Capoue?
Sorry yet another option to consider instead of making a call and why does it have to be done tonight?

Too many price rises, Capoue, OK but my defence is in big trouble.

km79 · 02-10-2016 11:59PM

I want Walcott
But there is no game for 2 weeks so I will not be buying him tonight
Ya know
In case he gets INJURED
Please stop signing him

Are you making moves tonight? Seems like there's a few taking -4s/-8s.
I must admit that before this GW I was envious of some TVs. Some good players in a monet league I'm in had 13 transfers done and 2M budget better than me and still on similar rank (well 20pts..) Everyone has their own style.

Like your thinking on Vertongen but can't get him for free and "I'm never buying Costa" is 0.5M dearer and my Lukaku replacement...

Shanotheslayer · 03-10-2016 12:22AM

Anyone tempted to get a Stoke player in based on there next 3 gameweeks?

Thepoet85 · 03-10-2016 12:38AM

Antonio to Walcott done.

ElTel · 03-10-2016 12:57AM

Stones and Bolasie to Vertongen and Snod for a hit? Have Lukaku and Puncheon.

Or Rose/Walker and Fer? I'll step away.
