    Ye on the wing against Burnley and potentially through the middle against city. Mourinho just confirmed it was tactics and not rotation. I'll be captaining benteke anyway.

    Was thinking of Benteke or Zaha too if I stayed away from Ibra.

    Do you have Kane or are you worried about getting him?

    I don't have him I have 3 spurs. I think I'll be selling eriksen to free up a spot for him. May do it this week.

    I think I'll be getting a United defender in.
    Question is....
    Courtois for De Gea
    or
    Bailey/Rojo/ for Baines.

    I do hate having Baines but I'm also of Chelsea's new found habit of being porous. Is Bailey nailed on though? That's the annoying thing :/
    DDG is probably the most nailed on. Bailly would be rested at some stage but who knows when

    Did Kev lend you one of his Wildcards?? ;)

    Before you can make an informed decision on that you need to wait and watch out for Liverpool-WBA score, Utd-Chelsea, Utd-Anderlecht, Jose's interviews and next 2 press conferences. If you think Zlatan starts both games you gotta get him I think.

    Unless you are confident in another captain choice next week?

    After today's win I reckon there is more chance now Zlatan starts against Burnley. Maybe they have another tactical option v City - but think they are plenty of seanrios where he starts and comes on for a sizeable chunk of that game. I'm leaning more towards getting him now.

    Jose pretty much said that due to injuries Rojo & Bailly have to go "to the end" - Smalling & Jones are still out so the only cover is Blind (who Jose doesn't rate at CB)

    Won't be getting Kane this week but might make sense to take out eriksen this week as I can get in a player that will play twice instead of him.Or I could do Davies to Bailly to free up a spurs spot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,530 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Looks likely that I'll be rolling out double utd defence for the DGW and then moving Valencia on after


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,256 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside


    This is a headache, plan all along was Aguero to Ibra, now looking like Aguero to Benteke or Alonso to Sakho/Rojo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,697 ✭✭✭COH


    I think transferring Ibra in and having him black/rested would be less annoying than not having him and watching him go nuts.

    Costa to Ibra looking likely. To hell with Benteke

    Just in case...Sakho is ineligible to play against Liverpool


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,304 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Siggy is gone regardless. Got 2-3 weeks more than he should have.

    Have Zaha, Benteke and Valencia.

    Debating whether to get any more DGW players. Foster to Valdes looks tempting. McAuley to Gibson as well.

    Getting in Ibra means dropping Rom and taking hits. Not sure if he's worth that.

    Also have wildcard, bb, tc and aoa burning a hole in my pocket and running out of weeks to use them.

    Just bit the bullet and sold Lukaku for Ibra.

    Madness, utter madness, Ibra has a game Thursday night

    100% I'm sucking up price drops /rises rather than risking it before united play

    Likely I'll go Rashford & King route with Sane bench vs utd.

    Disagree. Possibly rising tonight and need the money for future moves.

    Have made early transfers to catch rises all season - have not got hit by one injury yet but even if I did it would just take one hit to correct it, which is small price to pay for TV you make by following this strategy.

    It's gameweek 33, your TV should be well.set by now. Following this strategy at a key point in the season is asking for trouble with this particular transfer.

    Had to weigh that with price rises.

    I think chances are I'm gonna want him Friday and need budget for as many DGWers as possible for GW37 bench boost.

    Need all the 0.1's I can get for city, Chelsea, soton and Arsenal players. When your looking at 15 players in GW37 it's all very tight.

    A calculated risk in my opinion.

    What's your TV ? If your strategy has paid dividends by now you should be fine for the few GWs that are left !
    If lukaku was going down AND ibra rising I'd say it's a risk worth taking but as it stands neither will happen tonight
    Hold off would be my advice

    Foster to Valdes, no brainer.

    Siggy and Origi both need to go. Thinking Townsend and Rashford/Benteke

    Who is your other keeper ?
    Foster also has a dgw in 37 so given that you want to make 2 other transfers it's may not be a no brainer

    Pickford. I'm wildcarding GW36.

    I would sell origi first for benteke if funds allow
    I'd keep siggy and then get rid on WC
    I'd only switch the keepers for free not for a hit
    Pickford could easily get a good score against boro


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,545 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Been away a few days. Looks like Siggy has to go this week - Swansea have given up. King incoming. Sold him a few weeks ago for Firmino but need him back for the nice run in. Sane was the only other lad I considered. May fit him in in a few weeks.

    At the back. I've the cash to get another United (to double up with Valencia). Or is it a waste of -4? Would likely ditch Valencia the following week then.

    It might be time to sell Heaton?

    I know it's never time to sell Heaton but De Gea might be a shrewd move in? Have Pickford too. Or is it just a waste of -4 when I'll be using the WC by GW36?

    Maybe it's not time to sell Heaton :pac:
