Gameweek 2 transfers

Fowler87 · 13-08-2017 6:20pm

Will likely move out Iwobi having 8m to spend. Looking like Mikhi or Pogba..?

SlickRic · 13-08-2017 6:35pm

If Zaha is injured, I'll move him out for Ramsey.

Likely to bank otherwise.

Guffy · 13-08-2017 6:38pm

Jesus lacazette lukaku

My 3 strikers, thinking if downgrading jesus or lacazette to improve my mid (it needs improving) jesus had a good first half yest and should have scored. I've been thinking of taking lac out for ferminho but will i be better off droping jesus given he is always going to have aguero alongside to split the goals?

Walker had a good game yest. Granted i had audio only but was always spoken off in a positive light and had the freedom to push forward all the time, granted the opposition wasn't great.

Hmm West Ham were muck today. Away at Southampton next. Maybe I'll hang on to Gabbi for one more week...:rolleyes:

Saints attacking play was woeful too

They had so many attempts though. Arsenal won 4-1 at Stoke last season so maybe their bad record there has come to an end

Hogey007 · 13-08-2017 7:16pm

I have gabbi too and I'd keep him if I actually thought he'd start because chances are if they create 20 odd chances v West ham they'll get more than 2 on target. But I fear Austin will be given the start. So may get rid.

Ideally I'd like to do cesc to Ramsey. That'd mean keeping gabbi as don't think a -4 to mounie would be worth it.

But fearing gabbi won't start and having no Liverpool cover I might do
Gabbi to firmino (or even vardy)
And selling cesc to a 5.5 to get the 1.5 needed. I'd probably go with xhaka to maybe get a couple of price rises before my inevitable international break wc.

SlipperyPeople · 13-08-2017 7:28pm

Looking for anyones advice on changes to my team below. obvious changes for me are to take out fab and for go another mid or chop himself and batshuayi and bring in morata who'll start the next match I think.

hmmm or kane to lukaku.

foster

Davies Yoshida Bailly Fosu-Mensah

De Bruyne Fàbregas Salah

Kane Batshuayi Jesus

Ya was considering Gabbi to Vardy/Firmino too, I'd have to downgrade Iwobi to a 4.5 though, either that or sell one of KDB/Willian/Zaha. I'd prefer Mooy to Xhaka, looked decent yesterday and two home games coming up. Xhaka is just as likely to get a yellow or red as he is to get a goal/assist.

Really can't comment unless we know who is on your bench and if you can play them next week,

I'd get rid of iwobi. There's some ok 4.5's out There, Carroll or cork.
I really don't like going into the Liverpool v palace game without a Liverpool attacker.
We don't really have luxury of waiting for press conferences this early either (to see if gabbi will start) as a price rise so early means a player becomes out of reach.

I'm not overly fond of xhaka, if I get him it'll be purely to catch a price rise before my wildcard as no one else 5.5 jumping out at me.

Sell batshuyi and fab and get in mkhi and a cheaper striker. I wouldn't sell Kane you will want him gw3 for captaincy.

Ya I already have Carroll. Don't want RLC as have Zaha so maybe Cork. Firmino seems the obvious transfer really...get rid of Gabbi and get Pool cover in one move.

Lukaku has Leicester at home that week so don't think Kane (c) is a foregone conclusion now.

Cartman78 · 13-08-2017 7:41pm

Just in case...for anyone considering bringing a Liverpool player in they have a Champions League qualifier midweek so hold off until after that if you can.

Tempted to bank although KDB to Mané/Salah is a possibility.

Any news yet on Zaha? He could have a field day against Liverpool

Zaha is key to my transfers
If he is ok then I'm ok with 1 maybe 2 transfers
If not

manual_man · 13-08-2017 7:46pm

Madness to consider a Jesus->Mounie transfer? :pac: Would then more than likely use the spare funds to get in a Spurs mid the week after

I'm actually considering Kane captain against Chelsea now though !
He was poor today but still had a one on one and hit the post
Chelsea were all over the place
Think he has a good record against them too?

mectavba · 13-08-2017 7:48pm

Do we reckon Ramsey is nailed on to start next week? I'm between him or Willian to replace Fabregas

I don't own Kane but I'll find it very hard to resist getting him in and giving him the armband for that game. For those that have gone with Kane from the start I think you have to give him at least those 3 gws.

Have Kane Lukaku and Gabbi

Tempted to bring in Mounie for Gabbi but he might be a flash in the pan merchant!

I didn't think he is certain but likely
I think people doing fab to willian are taking a risk
There are 2 gws left until into break when I think hazard is back
One is spurs away with a depleted team.......for the first hour yday as well willian was anonymous

Not the greatest, 4 goals in 8 games and 2 coming in one game. Not sure on assists but would like to see if anyone has them?

Nonetheless, I'm definitely thinking of captaining Kane this weekend, Chelsea looked really awful yesterday, albeit without Cahill. There was no leadership or shape and Cahill will be a big loss.

Luiz, Rudiger, Christensen, I'd expect Kane to do well against, didn't have the best of games today but still looked decent hitting the post and having a goal disallowed. He'll want to break that August 'record' as well as I wouldn't back against him doing it vs Chelsea

Considering what Chelsea have, it could even be a back 4 with Luiz having to go into midfield, so it'd be Kane vs Rudiger and Christensen

With Moses free to come back in at RWB, Azpi should go back to his usual position beside Luiz and one of Rudiger/Christensen

Chesty08 · 13-08-2017 8:08pm

Have gone Iwobi to Mooy.

Really impressive yesterday. 3 of the Huddersfield next 4 are at home... how many times have we seen it before with promoted riding the crest of the waves early doors.

Interesting ...........I think I'll do that too
He impressed on Motd
Would allow Gabbi to firmino too just in case pool don't fall foul of their bogey team again !
Will probably have to wait in zaha news though in case he he is out longer than fab

Mounie in for Defoe? Huddersfield have a run of
20 Aug 13:30 2 Newcastle (H) 2
26 Aug 15:00 3 Southampton (H) 2
11 Sep 20:00 4 West Ham (A) 2
16 Sep 15:00 5 Leicester (H) 2
23 Sep 15:00 6 Burnley (A)

I'm talking about getting in Kane for gw3 to captain home against Burnley not the Chelsea game. I didn't start off with him as I didn't plan on captaining him till then.

Think that was a reply to me as I said I'm thinking about it

Maybe someone who can do polls can set up the captaincy thread

Hogey007 · 13-08-2017 9:30pm

Transfers done. Busy week ahead so don't want to be over thinking this.
The Liverpool champions league games made me sway towards vardy as opposed to firmino (with a view towards captaincy too)

Gabbi & cesc out for vardy & xhaka (for -4 obviously)

I have gabbi in draft so won't be too disappointed if he does well.

FHFC · 14-08-2017 12:15am

Think I'm gonna do Mee to Hegazi just for the price rises. No other pressing issues in my team. Hegazi will replace Mee on my bench GW2 but will be a better option to start GW3.

Trimm Trabb · 14-08-2017 12:18am

Kane to Lukaku done.

14-08-2017 1:06am

Wonder should I just do Iwobi to Chaka for the price rise.

Might be too late now anyhow.

It's 1.15am innit ?

gammygils · 14-08-2017 1:27am

Milner to Stones done! Maybe Kane to Rom for a -4

So it wouldn't be an opening weekend of FPl without a few ol' injuries. Betrand supposedly came off with a knock and my secret weapon of Lejeune was assaulted by Kane and laster 30 mins.

Means I have to wait for injury news. If Bertrand is ok, I'll bank the transfer I think.
