    Schmeicel shades Pickford
    Alonso is like an extra mid with greater returns!

    Yeah, looking at Schmeichel (but he has Liverpool next).

    Think it will be DDG to Schmeichel/Pickford OR Mane to David Silva to afford Alonso. (Both for -4)

    I would take the -4 option arsenal look very disjointed although in fairness Aubameyang could have got a goal on another day.

    Ya he's just not providing value at the moment considering he's the same price as Aguero. Plus I won't be captaining him as I have Salah and Kun. Hate taking a hit straight after wildcarding but have had a decent enough start so it might be worth re-investing 4 points.

    Have a decision to make re: Aubameyang. Hold and give him two more games or ditch him this week and use the funds to get Alonso in.

    Auba and Bennett to Alonso and Mitrovic/any cheap strikers for a -4

    Thoughts?

    Bennett is around 75% to rise.
    Have you no player falling, like Peltier?
    Aruba to Mitrovic or Wilson to get Alonso sounds good.
    Thinking of -8 to get Alonso for Peltier, will mean ousting Firmino or B Silva.

    Minus 8 is somehow tempting

    Maddison or Bilva, Smith Ricky to Walcott, Alonso and a 4.4. tell me it's madness....

    No wildcarded last week so got rid of Peltier. Prefer Zaha I think, two home games in the next 3 while Mitro has Brighton and City away.

    -4 ready to play

    Ricky, Mane and TAA out
    Pedro, Ramsey and Alonso in

    Can't see logic in Mane -> Ramsey
    Ricky -> Milner
    TAA -> Alonso
    No -4 needed?

    I don’t want Pedro if he’s going to be a 60 minute man, he’s far from nailed. Richarlison to either Maddison or Fraser. Both have bad fixtures next week but great fixtures afterwards. Maddison on set pieces but Fraser is cheaper which would allow me to upgrade Ings later if need be. Not sure who to go for.

    Ok think I figured it out.

    Already did Richi out Walcott in.
    With Alonso likely to rise an looks essential I can do the following.

    Kabasele out. Alonso in
    Mili(Palace) out and Kante in.

    Would be a - 8

    Already have Salah and have no Arsenal cover. I think Ramsey will hit some form soon. Has a good record against Welsh opposition and nice fixtures ahead.

    Already did Ricky to Theo.

    Can do bilva and firmino to hazard and mitrovic for -8

    Or

    Do the above and WC, sort out some of the fodder like peltier and gunnarson as well as possibly reassess my keepers.

    What do ye think? Feels a bit points chasing but hazard and mitrovic have such good fixtures next week.

    Think I will be able to avoid the final decision until tomorrow anyway with no price impacts

    Didn't want a - 8 so went with Robertson out Alonso in.

    I am in a similar position is a minus 8 not madness this early...

    Is Dilva worth 2.9 more than Gundog? Gundog could allow me to upgrade my 2nd striker.

    Have you already done it?

    I'd rather have Robertson and a -4 than Kabasele. Liverpools fixtures turn tough, but look at Watfords! Robertson far more likely to return attacking points.

    Looks worthwhile, anyone more attacking than Kante though?

    I've taken a -4 last week and -8 this to leave me more or less with my WC team. I would value a WC at more than 12 points so just went with the hits. All aided by a decent start.

    Ive already done it. I plan to WC after the international break so Robbo will be back in after the Spurs game most likely.

    Essentially I think Alonso outscores Robbo over the next 2 game weeks And covers the - 4

    Fair play for taking the risk, think I am going to shy away from it,

    One of the main reasons is it would give me a back five of

    Mendy Alonso Robbo Wan Bisakka and Shaw

    I think I would end up playing 5 at the back!

    If Bailly gets dropped and Arnie is injured even just for one game then it's wildcard time.

    I think both of the above are likely to happen, and I'd be happy enough to have the excuse to pull the trigger.

    Palace and City have great fixtures. maybe I am answering my own question there...

    Ok, I have decided that Hazard is not worth it,so the question is, Zaha or Mitrovic?

    If undecided then Mitro, less money and will rise off the back of today

    Similar to myself a good start has made me feel I can gamble

    Going to go

    Firmino to Zaha

    Adam Smith to Alonso

    Any thoughts? Wary of getting id of Firmino but he has some tough games coming up

    Sometimes early in the season, you have to take hits to accumulate team value and get players you want long term, before you're priced out of the market.

    I've been looking at Duffy seriously at 4.5, gets forward and the fixtures aren't so bad. I'd prefer a fullback but 4.5 is a skinny budget.

    My team needed way more then that I was forced to wildcard last week - otherwise price drops looming for 6 players.
    Team is now better overall fortunately I think I picked the right players long term now and can gobble up price rises at the very least.

    It depends on the state of your team. But I would agree -12 over two weeks seems fair enough.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Went ahead with Alonso transfer as it looks like he's going to rise tonight. Back 5 is now:

    Ederson
    Alonso Mendy Robertson Monreal

    This is the most I've ever spent on defence.

    Gundogan impressed me Saturday
    Tempting
    Walcott the obvious one but I'm sick of switching everton mids now

    I'd need a - 4 to get Alonso in.

    Currently have:
    Foster Hammer
    Mendy TAA Shaw WB Peltier
    Salah Lucas Walcott Fraser Gunnarrson
    Kane Aguero Zaha

    Already got Theo for Rich.

    The best option I see is:
    Shaw > Alonso
    Lucas > Kante

    Not ideal getting rid of Lucas before he even plays. But having him and Kane may have been overkill, and I just can't get rid of King Harry.

    Any other better options? Hard to ignore Alonso with two nice home games coming up.

    Edit, I've 5.8 to replace Lucas if I do it before he rises tonight.
