Gameweek 12 Transfers.

Hi Etienne, we need to talk.....we've been together a long time and I feel we're starting to grow apart a bit....it's not me...it's you.

So long Capoue...it's been a blast. The Gundog wagon is tempting atm but going to wait a while before making any moves

Ok. Lets try some rational thought and debate to hold it together.

Assuming that in fitting Hazard, Liverpool, Sanchez, City mid, etc that more than 2 expensive forwards is off the table.

Is it time to swap from Lukaku to Costa as automatic partner alongside Aguero?

Lukaku is great from too. Costa and the bloody yellow card. Chelsea short term fixtures. But Chelsea.

Discuss....

I'm eyeing up Lukaku to Costa for Chelsea's December fixtures:

03 Dec Man City (A)
11 Dec West Brom (H)
14 Dec Sunderland (A)
17 Dec Crystal Palace (A)
26 Dec Bournemouth (H)
31 Dec Stoke (H)

Too good not to double up.

Hazard 9.9 now. Will be interesting to see how much extra he'll cost you in a couple of weeks.

If he blanks next GW then I'd guess 10.1? The players of the game are extra fickle this year.

I'm getting Pedro for next week. Then the week after I'll be selling lukaku and will see what way to go about getting hazard. I've never been a huge hazard fan as I thought he was fairly reliant on pens but this 343 formation is a gamechanger for him.

I can do a single move to Hazard for either Mane or Firmino with my FT.

Then I have change for Lukaku to Costa if thats how I want to go.

No. The correct wording is But Conte .

I haven't seen the game today but from what I heard lately and from what I read today about their game, Conte seems to have managed to turn the post-Mourinho chaos into his old Juve machine. Strong at the back (some kind of impenetrable "pentagon": the 3 backs and Kanté - Matic just in front) with the ability to go forwarbox to box (Kanté and assist machine Matic). Great wing backs. And fireworks upfront.

At this rate, 3 Chelsea players will become essential.

Id do mane to hazard

-4 done.

Need to take a chance. The season is stagnating a bit and I'm pretty sure I'll lose 0.4 of value if I don't do those transfers now.

Yeah thats pretty much as good as done.

People are playing a dangerous game doing transfers this early. Injuries are highly likely to happen to major players on international duty. I know that price rises are what's forcing most folk to move now but if a few key players pick up knocks during the break, people could be looking at big hits.

I'm doing my FT early, happy to take a hit too if needed. Taking a hit, or certainly anything more than -4 this early is very very risky.

Fully aware but I won't be able to do what I want otherwise. It could bite me but fúck it.

Rashford to Vokes
Mane to Hazard

Quite likely Siggy to Lalana if I want to return to a Liverpool double up.

He could well be 10.5 if he is so be it. For 3 million less Im happy with pedro he has 38 pts in 4 games. Ive always been a big pedro fan the problem is he has never got a consistent run of games. To get hazard now I need a -8 and ive to take out players I dont want to take out.

I'm the same regarding Pedro. He's a striker classified as a mid in the game and is a good finisher (I particulalrly remember his Barça years). Mourinho was no help for him though. I'd say he'd have been great with Klopp at 'Pool. He's a worker for the team which would have fitted well with Klopp and his pace would have made the diff upfront. Hopefully he'll be a key man of Conte now.

I can't believe I did not consider him to replace Arnie this morning. I guess I thought it was enough having already brought in Hazard. But I may have to reassess my "rule" of no doubling in the same line. This year it seems the way to go. Sanchez-Walcott worked fine. 'Pool mids too. And now Hazard-Pedro?

Arnie is of course dropping tonight (I knew I should have dumped him). Makes the swap to Pedro very tempting.
Forgot he was only suspended and fortunately Stoke already played. FPLS readjusted the NTI and he's unflagged now and his NTI reset to 0. 8 days protection. Lucky escape.

I'd be worried about Willian taking Pedro's place when fit and available. I think Willian is first choice.

Even with Pedro last performances?
