Smalling or Mawson for the 3 game ****storm that is 37/38?

Smalling plays for a better team with a better defence. Both players carry an attacking threat. Mawson does not carry a rotation risk, and Swansea will be playing for their lives against Bournemouth, Southampton and Stoke.

Answers on a postcard please and alternative options that are of equal or lesser price to Smalling will also be considered.

I'd go Mawson unless you have no other United defs/keeper. Nice differential, and more of an attacking threat than Smalling imo.

both have dgw but auba more nailed on with a little more to play for even though their 6th spot should be secure now.

Tough to choose between the two in isolation, but you'd imagine City will score way more goals than Arsenal over the last few games.

normanoffside · 01-05-2018 12:49pm

Mawson or trippier?
Who to get rid of, Robertson, Morgan or Mustafi?

I think Sterling is more nailed than Jesus. Could well see Jesus rested and Sterling played up top.

Rested for what though?

It's not like City have important games coming up. Jesus missed a lot of games through injury so can't be tired. He is also very young still.

If anything, he will want to be playing as much as possible so that he scores as much as possible and gets into form / starting 11 for the World Cup.

Yeah, rested is probably the wrong word, but I can still see him being rotated before Sterling.

radharc · 01-05-2018 1:04pm

Anyone know if DSilva is back available for selection?

COH · 01-05-2018 1:11pm

Looking at Haz/Willian/Barnes to Jesus/Sane/TPT for a -8... have lost faith in Chelsea altogether

bot43 · 01-05-2018 1:13pm

To 4 hit or not 4 hit? I have 8 DGW, but do not have Jesus or Sterling.

Is Aubamyang wrth keeping? Will Silva and Willian get 2 starts or no starts?

My main league is far too close for any slips. I'm top, 58 ahead of 3rd. A good triple captain should do it, but it will be tight.

DJIMI TRARORE · 01-05-2018 1:23pm

Jesus was nailed until Easter Sunday, Sterling safe enough now I'd say

I think he will be back at the weekend for the title celebrations 100%. Last weekend was the perfect opportunity for him to go home to his son.

If arsenal make the Europa league final I don't think auba will start the second game of the double. As they will no doubt put the EL team out for the Leicester game as it would be a week before the final. The non EL team would play the Burnley and Huddersfield games. If arsenal go out of Europe he probably will start both games in the double.

The EL final is 3 days after the end of the season. Auba is nailed on for GW38, the problem is the Leicester game might be used as a trial run for the final.

01-05-2018 2:25pm

Just wait a couple of days re Arsenal.

I don’t think they’ll be involved in the final but you can make your decisions after the second leg either way.

I think ill be getting Hazard in. Quite likely to be his last three games for Chelsea and he finishes up away to Newcastle - a team he has an amazing record against

Indeed it was. Back to reading classes for me!

DaMorganator · 01-05-2018 3:29pm

Going for broke and not getting Kane in. Instead went for Hazard and Arnie in for Salah & Cork and Ayew in for Firmino. Feel it is worth the risk as everyone above me in my league have Kane and the only way I'm making serious ground is with other players.

Why get rid of Lingard with DGW?

Rotation risk been the main reason really.

But thinking now of getting rid of Salah for Eriksen or Alli. Much to ponder

Cartman78 · 01-05-2018 7:16pm

Will be playing BB...

Currently have 10 DGW players.

My 5 non doublers are: Long, Robertson,Salah,Zaha and Wood.

Thinking of dumping Robertson & Wood for Trippier & Ayew (or Austin) for a hit...

Mint Sauce · 01-05-2018 9:34pm

Just done

Salah to Sane
Vardy to Jesus
Rashford to Ayew

for a -4, before Salahs predicted fall. Going to feel weird without him.

Id have kept Rashford

dsmythy · 01-05-2018 9:54pm

It's weird if it was mid season I'd probably bank. Instead I want to get one of Jesus or Kane in. Rival behind me will likely have Kane captained so it would make sense but if this was mid season I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole until he showed a bit more. I honestly don't expect a huge improvement from him but should I be dull and defensive I don't know.

Yeah and if it were not for this crazy year we're experiencing in the European return legs I'd dare saying they have no chance at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Wilberto · 01-05-2018 11:15pm

F*** it! Let's go mental and take a hit of -8.

Lukaku > Jesus
Vardy > Ayew
Milivojevic > Eriksen

Team is now :

DDG (3.9m waster/Coleman)
Morgan | Otamendi | Naughton (Robertson | Lowton)
Salah | Sterling (Potential TC) | Eriksen | Lingard (Kenedy)
Ayew | Kane (Potential TC) | Jesus (Potential TC)

All DGW players apart from Salah and the two benched defenders. Next decision now is to figure out who's going to let me down as TC.

Kane will play both games, but he hasn't been so trustworthy in front of goal lately.
Jesus and Sterling have nicer fixtures (both at home) but are far more of a rotation risk. I expect the likes of Foden (and maybe Diaz) to get some minutes in those matches, along with a start from Bernardo Silve (but for who, Leroy or Raheem).

Or I could TC Ayew for the craic. :pac: :pac:

I’m considering bringing him in.

2nd Row Donkey · 02-05-2018 7:53am

Sure is a lot of considering going on in here this week.

The considering is through the roof.

Necronomicon · 02-05-2018 9:06am

Did Lukaku to Jesus last night before the price change. I'd love to shift Christy and Willian but I'm only 8 points behind the leader of my ML, so every point feels precious. I may have to roll with what I have now.

hufpc8w3adnk65 · 02-05-2018 9:18am

Sterling and Jesus in. Mahrez and Lukaku out. Now just to pick the tc

Cartman78 · 02-05-2018 12:00pm

Any opinions on my self-created conundrum of Ayew vs. Austin ??

Swansea seem to have tightened up lately and Southampton's new manager bounce seems slightly more dynamic at the minute (?)...I'm leaning towards Austin right now

Both decent options, Ayew likelier to get more minutes and has better fixtures. Austin hasn't played 180 minutes in a week in about 5 years at this stage

Swansea fixture are better than Southamptons. I'd be inclined to lean towards them.

2nd Row Donkey · 02-05-2018 3:22pm

I'm pondering a - 4.

Barnes to J Ayew
Gudmundsen to his namesake Gundogan.

And then,

For an additional -4 I could do...

Willian > Ramsey.
Or
Son to Pogba.

Rationale for Ramsey is the arsenals fixtures - 2 at home where they are very solid and 1 away @ leic who are on the beach, but will he even play all 3. Won't do this transfer if they progress to EL final.

Or Pogba as I have no united cover, united have excellent fixtures and my ML rival has him.

Any thoughts, ponderings or musings appreciated.

radharc · 02-05-2018 3:48pm

I am 2nd in my money league, a long way clear of 3rd. 26 points behind leader, I have Triple Captain, he doesn't.

Our defenders/ GK are identical teams apart from his double UTD vs my UTD/Southampton

His Salah/Eriksen/Sterling vs my Salah/Willian/Dilva/

Both have Kane & Vardy.

_____________________________________

First thought was to gamble big and ditch Kane and bring in De Bruyne and either Alli or Sane for a -8. TC De Bruyne and hope for the best

Otherwise Vardy -> Jordan Ayew and one midfield transfer for a -4.

Short Version: What gives me the best chance of reeling in a ~30 point lead?

Assuming he has Kane captain for the double you could TC and hope Kane scores well, and then a deferential like Jesus to his Vardy closes the gap further.

Id be worried about him having sterling and you not having him though.

Any way of doing Dilva to sterling and Vardy to jesus.

COH · 02-05-2018 7:33pm

Is Gundogan a decent shout for the DGW?

Wilberto · 02-05-2018 7:36pm

COH wrote: »

Yeah, I'd say he is....if you're looking for a cheap way into the City midfield. Sterling & De Bruyne are better options of course, but that's why their almost twice the price.

Fernandinho too is another cheap City midfield option.

DJIMI TRARORE · 02-05-2018 11:01pm

Clyne must be a possibility for pool now,no taa or gomez or robbo

Would love to have Sterling but I think to reel back 30 points I need to gamble a little, no point having a similar but slightly inferior team to him. Best case I'm counting TC as an extra 10 points, still leaves me 20 behind him.

Thanks for the feedback, now to have a big think about Jesus.

Like the Pogba call, he is scoring well. Alli could be an option if funds allow, think he is on the way up and Son's form is tailing off. Probably moving Willian on myself but anytime I've seen him recently he is playing well and looking like a big score is coming.

Axwell · 03-05-2018 12:25am

Are Danilo and Laporte likely to get their game at the weekend, how serious is Walker amd Kompanys injuries?

TVSAdamwest · 03-05-2018 9:01am

Anyone thinking about bringing in Mkhitaryan? His "Injury" is more of a precaution and he will need gametime to get back upto speed

T-b0n3 · 03-05-2018 10:44am

I got Jesus in for Lukaku for free.

Will decide tomorrow if I want to take any hits.

I could get Sane in for Willian, another spurs mid for Salah... I'll see.

EarlSlick · 03-05-2018 11:34am

Gonna take a hit and bring in one of the following:

Eriksen
Ali
Arnie

Who would you choose? My main competitor has Eriksen and is 2 points ahead of me

Also - is Kenedy eligible to face Chelsea in GW38? If not i'm offloading

Arnie on the double with Andy Carroll out of favour is your points maker, Eriksen would just be a blocker.

Kennedy will not play against his parent club, sameway Hart didn't play against City

sheroman01 · 03-05-2018 12:52pm

Torn between Eriksen and Alli. Consistency vs. Form. Alli possibly more likely to hit a bigger score.

I had the same conundrum. I went for the safe option in Eriksen, so Alli's now guaranteed to hit a big score! :pac:

SkySter · 03-05-2018 1:52pm

I need to bring in a cheap Swansea midfielder as an enabler. King or Carroll?

As a man fighting for a 3 figure finish, how much of a points hit are you prepared to make?

carnie · 03-05-2018 2:01pm

Are many of your lovely dears sticking with Lukaku?

I'm debating whether or to drop him for Jesus but at the same time I'm debating whether or not to hold onto Salah.

He will be luvky to make it back for gw38, get rid asap.
