    Lukaku scores against West Ham, nine in a row as it stands.

    My other option is to drop Kane for Ibra.
    Or just stick with Kane & Lukaku and not bring Ibra in for the DGW at all.
    I'm sticking with Kane/Lukaku.

    Can't justify selling in form players with lots to play for, to get a player who has priorities elsewhere

    True. Is there any guarantee Ibra will even start both games?

    I just don't know about DGW34.

    Any transfer I make for this poor DGW is a transfer or point hit that can be used for the subsequent doubles.

    I have Zaha and Valencia. Honestly, the only other player I am considering is Friend, mainly because he is cheap and frees up funds for other players.

    Will Ibra start against City?
    Is Benteke worth a point hit?
    Will United rotate?
    Do I honestly want Boro players stinking up my team?
    Do I really want Palace players long term?

    Just getting lukewarm feelings from the fixtures. :rolleyes:

    Exactly what I feel. Well put.

    I hadn't even contemplated Zlatan until this morning. Aguero to Zlatan would be the easiest move in the world.

    But. It. Would. Be. So. Incredibly. Boring.

    Although coupled with the likely additions of the 2 Palace players I occasionally reference then it might balance things up.

    That's before I get to Zaha, United or Boro defenders!

    At least I have 2 FTs which should limit the hits and a WC in my back pocket too.

    I am thinking of doing a minus eight:
    Aguero -> Ibra
    Fletcher -> Townsend
    Brunt -> Baily

    Doing these now, these players are an improvement on my regular team this week but also have better GW35 fixtures.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,700 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I had Aguero in my mind, as the transfer out for Ibra since the DGW was announced, but now, looking at it, with United as they are and City having Middlesbrough (A) and Crystal Palace (H) and a DGW of Leicester and West Brom at home, then Aguero is a winning ticket even if Jesus starts a game ahead of him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 316 ✭✭Irish Raven


    Whats peoples thought on

    Alonso to gibson
    Siggy to sanchez

    Will cost -4 .....

    I was thinking about this last night and came to the same conclusion.
    My front 3 is currently Aguero Kane Lukaku.
    I have no players in my squad who I'm happy to captain this week so I'll be bringing in a DGW striker and captaining them.
    Selling Kane is out of the question so it's between Lukaku and Aguero.
    I was initially happy to sell Aguero but I don't think I can justify it with his fixtures, especially when I've no wildcard.
    So I'll reluctantly have to let Lukaku go. His lack of a double makes that easier to stomach though.

    I think I'll probably sell him for the same reasons as Spock but I have WC if I want to get him back.

    GW35 WC is looking likely. GW36 BB not out of question. I think if you want Aguero in your DGW37 squad, along with say Kane who we'll all have your are leaving so little budget to spread around the other 13 positions that its possibly gonna defeat the purpose of the BB. For that reason I'm considering a strong 11 approach to DGW37 over the BB (thanks to mectavba getting into my head the bugger.)

    Have the same front 3 and decision to make. More chance of Aguero getting dropped when Jesus is back and I just think Lukaku is in too good form so I'll prob do Aguero to Ibra.

    I just don't see Pep dropping Aguero this time when Jesus is fit. Aguero is scoring, City are winning - both of which weren't happening when Jesus was first signed.
    He doesn't need to rush Jesus back and risk him getting injured again when he already has a striker in form.

    I own the exact same players and am asking the exact same questions with the same reluctance to act.
    Just I was also considering Rojo in case Valencia is dropped again.

    Oh I own Chambers too.

    and you know that someone like Benteke or Gibson will get 20 points if you don't bring them in.

    A boro fan on ffs reckons chambers will be straight back in the team either at cb for Ayala or rb for baragan.

    At this stage he will be a free dgw player for those who held. With Fuchs away to Arsenal I think I will throw him in and hopefully get 120 from him at least.

    Jsut some more thinking out loud.

    My front 7 as it stands for this week (with Crouch on the bench) is...

    Alli - Eriksen - Sanchez - King - Zaha
    Kane - Lukaku

    If I bring in Zlatan, I must sell either Sanchez and Crouch for a hit. Do I want to sell Sanchez before Leicester at home?

    If I bring in Benteke for Crouch, I have to take out Baines. If I do that, I also have to drop one mid. Do I want to drop Alli and Erisken at Palace, King at home to Boro or Zaha?

    Soooooooo.....

    Getting in Chambers or Friend makes sense. It frees up funds for other players in later GWs.

    PVA also makes sense after having a thought about it. It's not so much the double, it's the Burnley game after it is making me very excited. Burnley are conceding a metric ton of chances down that side and PVA could easily get a double figure return. Hull in GW37 could be better than some DGW choices too.

    Just want to see how United do tonight before locking in any plans.

    Matip klavan and Lucas have all not trained for Liverpool and are major doubts.........

    Crikey...that leaves Lovern and nobody at centre back.

    The armband has suddenly started levitating towards Benteke and Zaha

    Back to Bailly and a united double up so!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,642 ✭✭✭Deco99


    I have Valdez, Hennessy, Bailly, Zaha, Benteke, Zlatan. Thinking of a -4 for  Gibson/Rashford or Negredo for Fernandez/Barnes. Mirallas (west ham away) and Robertson (watford home) would go to bench. 

    Have 3.3m in bank so could get a united mid too for mirallas, Thing is who to get in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,840 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    With Valdes out I'll prob do Foster/Aguero to De Gea/Ibra for -4. 
    Have Valencia, Chambers and Zaha atm.

    Victor Valdes [ribs] and Grant Leadbitter have been ruled out of the game at Bournemouth on Saturday. #UTB


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,213 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Valdes being out is annoying.

    Is it worth doing something like Alonso to Bailly, and Valdes to DDG for a hit (wildcarded last week)?

    Or Valdes to Guzan?

    Or just play Pickford and forget about it :confused::confused::confused:

    Leaning towards just playing Pickford actually the more I think about it. Have Gibson already


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,575 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    2 FT and no transfer I have to do. Siggy gets another chance at home to rediscover some form. So Grant to Jak it is. BB in GW36. He saves some money for rest the team.

    At least your alternate will start.
    Caballero for me.

    Carroll to Negredo will be my first FT.

    Will have 9.5M to change Bavies and Valdez for a hit.
    LLoris and Holding or DeGea and 4.1 or Cech and 4.2 to go alongside Alonso Valencia and Cedric.
    Could also just hope Willy plays and have 2 FTs next week.

    Why change Ben Davies for a hit? By the sound of it, he will start the Palace game..at least.
