    If DGW 25 were to go ahead would only have Sane from perspective teams so would consider free hit. Get a decent 11 from the players below and no need to restructure for 27.

    Sane, Sterling, KDB, Kun, Ederson
    Alonso, Luiz, Hazard, Higuain
    Digne, Siggy, Ricky
    Duffy, Gross, Ryan, Murray

    Makes sense if you have not wildcarded. For us early wildcarders GW32 is probably best when the Free Hit is best utilized.

    Probably mentioned elsewhere but Son and South Korea lost their 1/4 final.

    He's in my thoughts now again when Chelsea and City are blanking.

    Could be my Richy replacement, if i downgrade Jimenez to Niasse, or Jimenez to Ings and Digne to 4.5m.

    A midfield of Pogba, Salah, Son and Sterling would be great. You could even say it'd be taking the PSSS.

    Especially if you got Iwobi as your 5th cheap midfielder.

    No Chelsea dgw25

    No DGW25 for Chelsea.

    I'm happy with that actually as a Hazard owner. Bournemouth away and Huddersfield at home before selling and nobody will bring him in now.

    Maximum of 8 PL teams in the last 16 of the cup. A couple of all PL ties and there wont be very many blanks and doubles.

    The way things are going the blanks and doubles will be a non event.

    West Ham next to drop!??

    Nooooo!

    Blanks and DGWs are the main advantage us obsessive eejits have over the casual eejits

    FA Cup has killed the spreadsheet for 18/19.

    I think even if you've used wildcard and/or free hit early it's still best for serious players if the blanks and doubles are tricky and require some planning.

    Other serious players with wildcard etc may be at less of an advantage over you but the masses have just got a big leg up.

    Guess it depends whether you're playing for OR or more to beat certain rivals in certain leagues.

    I have but one simple question:

    Does it seem like Palace will have a DGW in GW37 or not?

    Asking for me, not a friend :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    With no DGW25 for Chelsea and Liverpool not having any DGWs, it's going to be tricky to find the best TC.

    City assets are all at risk of rotation in a DGW so risky to use it on one of them.
    If Wolves get to the FA cup quarter final, then Aubameyang likely to have a DGW32 of wol, NEW which might be the best we'll get.

    As someone with only one player from both team I’m not jumping for joy with this.

    Totally messes up my plans. The only reason I brought in Hazard on WC was for GW24 and GW25, then dump him. I have Digne, Richy and Sterling for the DGW. I'll need to ponder dumping Hazard (HUD) for City mid/Aguero (ARS, eve). At least I didnt sell Richy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,131 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Ill prob stick with digne Ricky and aguero
    Pep roulette will be in full affect no doubt


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,362 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Keeping Ricky just because he has dgwk feels like a trap but I'm gonna do it anyway.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,131 ✭✭✭✭km79


    My entire squad have decent gw 25 fixtures now
    BB without taking hits is tempting
    I don’t have a second playing keeper though Cos Australia got knocked out
    Pity


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,649 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    They're 3 tough enough games for City; ARS (Feb-3rd), eve (Feb-6th) and CHE (Feb-10th). The FA cup either side of them too, meaning players already rested and more than likely after the Chelsea game too. I can see Aguero playing all 3 games, possibly Sterling and KdB too. I have Sterling and will strongly consider getting Aguero too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,007 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    I've Laporte, Digne and Sané. I've no idea what to do. Feels like I need Sterling or KDB somehow. Just brought in Mané, and it feels like I need to maybe sacrifice him for GW25.

    However City's tough run means I may be jumping the gun.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Zero interest in Everton players. Second game vs City is hardly worth considering, especially for defenders. Don't own any and think those who do may be trapped into keeping out of form players over a very low ceiling extra game on top of a tricky enough game vs Wolves.

    Big question for me is whether any of the City players are worthy of consideration for the TC?

    Digne Sterling Aguero happy enough with that, do I bother getting in another City player, if so will probably be gk or def
