    There is always a risk that a player can get injured. Sure, a player could get injured in training. If you need to pull the trigger in case of price rises/drops, and you're 100% sure on the transfer, then I say go for it.

    The reason I asked who he was selling as well was one the incoming players is moutinho who apparently is going to rip it up over the next few weeks..............there may be better options who allow more more time to make the transfers .

    Everybody is jumping on the Maddison bandwagon which is irritating as his price is soaring.

    2ft available and still weighing it up, but Kane against Cardiff could be too good to resist.
    Just to figure out who to make way... I've been tempted to sell Salah the last 2 weeks but the fear that he'll find his form in front of goal as soon as I'll sell him has stopped me.
    If I do bring in Kane it will most likely involve one of the following.

    Ings and Salah to Kane and Moutinho (or some other midfielder for 6m or less)
    Aguero and Salah to Kane and Sterling
    Aguero and Richarlison to Kane and Moutinho (or mid for 5.5 or less)

    Mendy out, Trippier in.

    Who are you selling ? What happens if Kane gets injured mid week . Is it still a good deal ?


    selling Firminiho and walcott....have rich as everton cover, and bernard played well when on today for everton , so reckon walcott might quiet down and rich play more through the centre. I dont know if you have watched Moutiniho last few games for wolves. He has been outstanding, everything going through him, so expect a good return next 3 games. Firminiho has been relatively poor, not getting into scoring positions too often with salah trying to do everything, and killing firminihos space!!

    Unfortunately cant do anything with injuries....Kane tbf is fairly durable. And not at risk of been rested.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,036 ✭✭✭Pete_Cavan


    Looking like those of us who want to bring Kane in will have to do it tonight or pay more for the privilege. Will never understand why people immediately jump on a player hours after a haul, particularly with a midweek game to be played, its not like you get some of the points they just scored if you transfer them in straight away!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Have enough to do Aguero to Kane for free but I'll want Aguero back straight away. Don't know if it's worth two transfers. And I got burned so many times last season by captaining Kane in "easy' home fixtures, half expect him to troll everyone and blank.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,332 ✭✭✭Always Be Closing


    Aguero and Bernardo Silva out for Kane and Mata

    + 1 here. Saw he got an assist again on Match of the day and brought in for Neves. He now has very high ownership because of consistent returns at what is still a good price. Don't see better value in midfield myself. Only other transfer I was considering was Aguero to Kane but can't drop Aguero in his current form even if Kane has started to improve.

    Being playing early transfers since start of the season and also had fairly early wildcard and now squad value is 101.9mil. with 2.2mill in the bank. I can understand the point about injuries but have tried to keep a fairly strong bench to make this less of a problem.

    Why is everyone getting rid of Aguero.That Liverpool game will be very open and Aguero has a good chance of scoring .

    After watching MOTD I'm having second thoughts about it
    Spurs still don't look great

    Kane in

    Is there any defender 4.0 who starts? Have exactly 4.0 for a defender if I go Walcott to Hazard and Mendy to 4.0 or below?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,068 ✭✭✭Tipsy McSwagger


    Think I’ll play the Free Hit chip as half my team will be playing in the Pool v City game.

    The problem is spurs Barca and Europa Thursday night for the other 2 .......
    I played it around this time last year though (dont think it was a European week though ) and it went really really well

    It’s got me thinking now I’m not going to lie
    I don’t want to sell salah or aguero but I have no captain I’m happy with
    I am gonna think about this now for sure
    No transfer for me until after midweek games anyway so I have time

    None left after Bennett rose I think. Cant even suggest anyone who might play in the future barring an injury. Maybe Jazz Richards at Cardiff if Warnock decides to change up but even if he got back in the team he'd just get injured again.

    Same but then I thought there'll surely be skinny gameweeks later in the season where it'll be more useful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy

    Fulham away won't be easy for Arsenal. I'd rather have Mitrovic than any of their attackers for that game. If I don't get Kane, I might get Mitro in and captain him.

    Bednarek 3.9 is waiting in the wings if there is an injury. Also Stankovic 4.0 for Huddersfield if a player gets hurt.

    opinions on arnautovic or mitrovic lads?

    Were people getting Kane in planning on doing that for Cardiff anyway, or is it the two goals swinging it?

    Spurs have Barca mid week aswell.

    Was always thinking of doing it at some point this season.

    Aguero being hooked at 60mns each week and Kane hitting some form makes it seem like the right time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,036 ✭✭✭Pete_Cavan


    Worth keeping in mind that there is an international window between the next two PL games. Aguero hopefully won't be involved for the Argies friendlies (no doubt he will pull out due to injury if he is called up) whereas Kane will get significant minutes for England.

    I just don’t think I can sell aguero before that gw9 at home to burnley
    I think I’ll captain him next week as well
    He will still be highly owned and captained I’d say

    Yeah, I just can't bring myself to drop Aguero. I don't think his output will drop and he will be top goal scorer at the end of the season due to him being minded by Pep and limited international involvement.

    Did I read he has never scored at Anfield on the league?

    I actually thought that game was at the Etihad !!!! Don’t think I’ll be captaining him now
    Over to you mitro


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    Want Kane, don't want to sell Aguero, and Sterling is on form so nearly a must have.... ugh why did I use that wildcard early on in the season.

    Did u get a boost from it when you played it because pretty much everyone that has played it so far has hit the jackpot with it. Loads of CS for players brought in , hazard hat trick etc. The only week it may not have worked was gw 4 i think when people would have went big on mkhi and auba.

    Thats the way its gone for most. Puts serious pressure on the likes of me that hasnt played it yet and have got off to on average start 410k.

    Not really, I've been in freefall for last 5 GW's. My team isn't in bad shape as such, but my main rival has Kane (auto captained every week), Aguero and Firmino up top. He also have Ederson, TAA, Alonso and Tripper - but has no midfield.

    My team is

    Allison, Fab
    Robertson, Alonso, Tripper, AWB, Pereira
    Hazard, Mane, Moura, Fraser, Billing
    Aguero, Iheanacho, Success

    So my issues are - need to get rid of a premium defender, Moura, and would like to get Kane

    Last 3 transfer out where Pedro, Mendy and Wilson, I seem to break them when I bought them. Iheanacho had 2 good GW's before this one, plays 90 mins and is in an attacking team so I think he's value, Moura has also been sh!t for me since I got him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,573 ✭✭✭skippy15


    My transfer comes down to the big 4. Hazard Salah Aguero Kane.

    Kane the one I don't have, just can't decide is it worth ditching Aguero or Salah to get him in. :confused: 2 ft so that's not an issue mmm

    Robertson to doherty and aguero to kane this week and your very strong.

    Not sure i get yous lads? Avoiding Kane because Pep confirms Aguero not fully fit ahead of facing Liverpool away.

    Surely if thinking of an Aguero Kane switch that would add to the argument.

    Of my 'big 4' (Sterling, Kane, Hazard, and Aguero) Aguero is starting to look the most disposable when I need Salah back.

    Aguero will be fully rested for Burnley at home with no games for Argentina
    Kane is obviously great for next week but it's about more than next week........also they just don't look great......it was Huddersfield......and then there is Barcelona. We seen them struggle so many times with home bankers after big European games . I'm sticking with my gut on this one
