    Just so I know I'm not on some mad train of thought, Sigurdsson is the right person to replace for Zaha and not Son or King (I'm barely even considering this one to be fair but he is the other option), riiiiiiiight?

    Sigurdsson the main man in a misfiring team with a lot to play for vs Son who is in a great team and on form but whose position in the team will depend on them sticking with the formation from the Watford game.

    Yeah I think so.

    That would suggest that Son is starting next week. We'll have to wait and see what Poch says in the press conference though.

    I didn't see last night's game, but were Palace that good that a DGW with Liverpool and Spurs as fixtures is suddenly this attractive? I mean, in 16 gameweeks Benteke has only thrice scored over 2 points.
    + 1 on this. I definitely think buying DGW players can sometimed be counterproductive. Last one with Man City lost me points.

    Yeah but Crystal Palace are one of the form teams in the league at the moment and have great fixtures either side of the double. I think Zaha is a must-have right now.

    Middlesbrough's highest points scorers are Gibson (110) Valdés (102) and Negredo (102) not great choice really.

    Sanchez and Carroll to Kane and Zaha

    OR

    Carroll, Siggy and Alonso to Zaha, Kane and Holgate?

    Yeah I'd be surprised if I ended up touching Middlesbrough at all.

    Would you start King (tot) or Ward-Prowse (MCI) & Alonso (mun) or Rojo (CHE)?

    Apart from their game against Sunderland, 3 of their next four games are very difficult

    Banking unless I fancy a flutter , and take out my sole survivor from GW1 Jonny Evans for a Palace defender (Schlupp more than likely in that case).

    It'd be a sad day.

    I'm looking at Sanchez and Origi to Zaha and Kane, so it's A for me.

    A bit yeah. I won't go as far as to use a valuable transfer to transfer him out, but I certainly wouldn't transfer him in either if I hadn't already committed to him for his 2 extra fixtures.

    You'd be mad to have him in a wildcard team right now as he will be at least 0.1 if not 0.2 cheaper by Saturday morning

    Can't shake this feeling that it should be Son out for Zaha and not Sigurdsson. Kane back now will mean a big change of dynamic for both Son and Alli. 6 of Son's 11 goals came when Kane wasn't in the team. Sigurdsson will be part of a Swansea team that will be fighting tooth and nail for their safety.

    Of course there is also Josh King but it is hard to make an argument for him going.

    Do you need to get Zaha or could you just bank the transfer?
    I'd much rather Son than Zaha this week.

    Zaha would be my first choice from Zaha, Son and Sigurdsson this week. He genuinely looked like Hazard or Sanchez at their best last night IMO.

    Have done Walcott to Zaha.
    Looking at Carroll to Ibra. Thinking do I take a hit now for -4 or do it next week for the DGW. If I do next week I may end up taken a -4 anyway to get in another DGW player.

    Carroll has Sunderland away and Ibra has Chelsea at home.

    Plan is to do Aguero > Ibra, and Vardy > Kane. Already have Lukaku. Would ye do it this week for a -4, or wait and do it next week for free? Need the money from Aguero to bring in Kane aswell, so can't just do Vardy > Kane this week.

    Exact same boat with the same decision here. I currently have the exact budget to do the move, so not sure how long I'll be able to wait. I was advised by a few people here against it a few days ago, but I can't see other routes to bringing in Kane. The only other viable one is losing Sanchez, which is definitely worth thinking about but with two DGWs I'm reluctant.

    Pretty sure I'll be doing:

    Barnes, Sanchez, Walker --> Kane, Zaha, Bailly for a -8

    Will be captaining Kane this week.
    I'll leave Sanchez for three weeks and bring him back for 36.
    This also sets up an AOA for GW34

    Thinking Mawson to Holgate or Bavies.

    Will get Valdes in for Foster then next week and hopefully Chambers will be back.
