I still have all three others to play also (Free hit bb and tc ) Last year I remember somebody on twitter outlining strategy for remainder of the season around this time. I suppose more is know when the Cup Fixtures are known?

I get rid of James who hasn't really done much lately and pick up Mahrez who is on form. Nakamba to Hayden gives me a player who starts and plays and is 4.3m. Up front - Mousset seems to have lost his place, so moving him on for Greenwood is ok. Vardy and Rashford to Aguero and Ayew are probably the moves that i'm not sure is worth it?. But I think maybe the strength of the other changes make it ok. After the DGW I can reassess the pool players and downgrade one of them, and upgrade Ayew in needed for instance.

Masuaku an OOP defender with a home fixture & a DGW Stephens for an improved Southampton side. HEWT

Hard to give advice now. I was just going to post ‘I really like that team’ but unless you are happy playing 4-4-2 I’m not so sure.
Ace2007 wrote: » Yea I'm not overly happy with Ayew in the team, I could downgrade Ryan to 4.0 keeper - and just have the one keeper, and also downgrade Holgate to a 4.2m defender and then bring in Deeney. I think Deeney might be a good option and would be more comfortable playing him in a 4-4-2

Ace2007 wrote: » I think that's very true, a few thoughts are: Aguero has form for back to back hatricks, He looks sharper/leaner/fitter/hungry for goals today so that's a plus It's easier to downgrade if goes wrong, than to be on the other side. I WC in GW4 this season and went from low of 1.7m to up high of 20k over 8 GW's as team was set up nicely, then just had bad week after bad and fell to around 480k over another 8 weeks. I then decided to play a FH in GW20 when others might think was better time ahead, and jumped to 240k, and was very tempted to WC to that FH team, but didn't - and now fallen back to 430k. Just looking at that FH team, had I WC to it I would have gotten 98 points this GW, as oppose to my 60. I saw a poster saying that he was going to BB next week, the logic being you can then put more money into the starting team, and have a non playing keeper and maybe one other player. Would never have thought of that - but that's actually a very good reason to do it.

Chesty08 wrote: » Similar enough to something I’ve ended up with. I was looking at Martial / Rashford last GW but with Liverpool next week I’ve decided on Richarlison over Martial. Richarlison type to go on a steak & if it goes wrong, I’ll revert to Martial. I think you should look at a Brighton defender over Kelly if you can squeeze the extra .1m
km79 wrote: » Why Gazziniga ? They have been stink defensively Mainly Cos of him You are at the mercy of pep rotation with not much on the bench to come in You Might not be able to bench boost if Rudolph is signed and fit , Greenwood not a certain starter and some city boys rotated ........
