    Should a few hits knocking around I'd imagine....

    Deffo going Aubameyang to Vardy, and possibly Fleck to Traore for a hit.

    Might do Aguero to Vardy for a flat 11.

    Few attackers against defence though which I don't like doing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,421 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Already have 12 for the mini blank so I think I might bank


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,288 ✭✭✭✭gammygils


    Have the bare 11
    KDB, Fleck and Grealish on bench leaving my midfield very bare. 5-2-3
    So I might ditch Fleck


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,727 ✭✭✭darego


    have 10 playing, going to play free hit


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    As is stands I have 11 and am planning on leaving it like that

    All 11 of my players are away from home. :eek:

    Why are you using your Free Hit if you already have 10 players?

    There's a much bigger blank GW in GW 31 and at least 2 DGW to come yet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Will have 11 once I use my two transfers. Hopefully they all start.

    Might risk getting Alonso in

    Same here, probably. Hoping for a double in 29 and I'll get a City defender in then to partner KDB

    I have 11 already...do I want to do Aguero to Vardy is the question. We'll see...


  • Registered Users Posts: 849 ✭✭✭IrishLad90


    Aguero KDB and mahrez in my squad
    No chips left
    And I've taken too many hits in the past few weeks
    Didn't use my Free Transfer this week
    So...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,610 ✭✭✭caviardreams


    Lundstram out (sorry John, it's been great but time to move on :o) for somebody - probably Soyuncu, Evans or Chilwell.

    Actually might try and stretch to pereira as my two main rivals have him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Aguero & Mahrez out!

    Jiminez & Martial in


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    Have no GK, KDB and Mahrez blanking and 2FTs.

    Crellin is speculating about a City DGW29

    "Likely enough that you should hold your FTs until after 5pm on Friday

    If there's no announcement before the GW28 deadline (7pm on Friday) then the chance of a DGW29 will plummet"

    Others seem to think the TV companies wont want to reschedule a big game midweek against Chelsea or Arsenal when CL is on.

    I'll post in the Blank and Double Gameweek discussion 2019/2020 thread if I can find the info.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,655 ✭✭✭✭machiavellianme


    What's the draw with Martial that so many are bringing him in?


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Victor Nutritious Sweeper


    Free hit job for me. Only six starters and my bench is just fodder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,923 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    11 playing but cathcart doucoure and holgate if he starts so not expecting much

    Lund for a defender maybe mee

    See most of my points coming from defence


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,582 ✭✭✭NoviGlitzko


    Only 9 playing and 1 is Sidibe. Debating whether I'll field 10 players or take a hit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,655 ✭✭✭✭machiavellianme


    Just realised that even the thread title is skinny and doesn't have all the letters.
    Well played OP, well played!

    Have to move on Hayden who seems to have lost his place in the starting line up at Newcastle as he would have been one of my 11 playing this week. Jorginho incoming. Not expecting a whole lot but hopefully it will mean having a full 11 playing this week with no hits.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,727 ✭✭✭darego


    played free hit. who would you guys have if your team for this week if you had the choice? still 0.8 in the bank

    Ah jaysus....good spot :-)

    Not the worst typo ever in fairness, that 's' always seems a bit unnecessary anyway

    I probably wouldn't go double Leicester at the back. It's pretty unfashionable now but I'd go Ryan in goal if Brighton are going to keep anyone out it's going to be a team like Palace. In midfield would prefer Maddison or even Alli to Mount and Richarlison. Ings>Jimenez up front too imo. That should leave a little left over to spend a bit extra on one of the defenders maybe upgrade Soy to Pereira.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Williams
    Hayden
    Wood

    Mahrez
    Aguero
    KdB
    Egan.

    I might just free hit at this rate!!

    Anyone tempted to double up with Wolves up front with both Jota and Jiminez?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,950 ✭✭✭shmeee


    Good luck to Lord Lundstram, in comes Doherty, impressed today. Had a few spare pound in the bank and no point holding onto it.

    Gives me 12 players for GW28.

    Was tempted but going with DCL instead I think - despite his fixtures his form is just too good to keep ignoring. Plus might fancy a double up with Wolves at teh back at some point.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭shineon23


    Long out for Jiminez.

    Might go - 4 and upgrade a defender or move away from Grealish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 641 ✭✭✭The wonderfish


    Martial or B Fernandes, leaning towards Fernandes but Martial has form and OOP, anyone with same decision to make?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,596 ✭✭✭✭siblers

    I currently have Martial but will probably swap him for Fernandes when I wildcard, he is on pens and set pieces which gives him more potential


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    KDB out, Bruno in
    Might have to offload lundy since Sheffield United don't seem to value him anymore, unfortunately

    Don't like it. He's a card magnet if you don't strike penalty gold. I'd cross my fingers and roll.
    For max 4.9 I'd consider Mooy but cheap as chips 8th attacker is better if your D can handle it.

    KDB out for one gameweek? Big call if it's long term, if it's for one gameweek have you taken into account how much it will cost you to bring him back in?

  • Registered Users Posts: 805 ✭✭✭SameOleJay


    Baldock out for Doherty, fairly obvious one this week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    Can get Pope and Bruno for Button and Mahrez with 0itb for free

    Would give me...

    Pope (Henderson)
    TAA Stephens Taylor Webster (Holgate)
    Salah Mane Bruno (KDB Cantwell)
    Ings DCL Vardy

    Tempted. United's fixtures are tough and no Wolves....


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,353 ✭✭✭Porthallian


    Crazy to consider Caballero as a Henderson replacement? Can't see Kepa getting back in the team anytime soon. Nice run of fixtures though apart from the City game.

    If you've an extra 0.3, Armstrong is in good form and offers more of an attacking threat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Flirting with the idea of transferring Grealish out. Would have 7.4m to spend which allows me to move to Maddison but he's had a terrible run of form lately. His fixtures are better than Grealish's but any of Aston Villas returns in the upcoming games are likely to be through Grealish.

    Struggling to decide what to do this week, have KDB, PEA and Lundstram not playing. Then have to rely on Traore, Dendonker and Hilson in midfield. Will keep KDB for definite and its hard to sell PEA with WH coming up after so its hard to see what to do. Have 1 mill itb so might upgrade Lundstram and sell Hilson


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    hoping to bank as I will need al the transfer i can get from 28 on!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,714 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    PEA finding form & Leicester being shyte has scuttled my original plan a bit (PEA to Vardy)

    Also, I'm off work sick at the moment so probably overthinking this A LOT ;-)

    Currently have PEA, KDB, Stevens & Fleck with no game. And have Rico so effectively 5 players down and zero cash ITB.

    Options:
    A) Stevens to Stephens/Taylor
    B) Stevens & Rico out for 2 from Stephens/Taylor/Saiss for a hit.

    I have McCarthy and Boly already so not sure about a defensive double double up, so likely Taylor will be part of any move I make.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,483 ✭✭✭macraignil

    Good advice but I'm too short on cash for that option. Thanks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Rael


    I'm in trouble this week.

    I've Henderson, Lundstram and KDB with a blank week, accepted that Lundstram is dodgy about starting these days.

    Then I've Button as my 2nd Keeper, M Kelly, Williams, Hayden on the bench and Cathcart as well, who either specialises in getting booked or Watford leaking like a leaky thing. Basically I'm screwed.

    I've £0.2m in the bank and 1 free transfer, anyone got any suggestions? :D

    Rest of the team is TAA, Salah, Mané, Traoré, DCL, Ings and Jiménez


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,427 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Had played my way to 11 starters this week but a lot (italics below) have been dropped all of a sudden.

    McCarthy
    TAA Aurier Soyuncu Rico
    Mane Salah Hayden
    Vardy Jimenez Ings

    Think I'll get Lascelles in for Lundstram and then hope Aurier/Rico get starts

    I would be optimistic at least one of them and prob both will


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,727 ✭✭✭darego


    made some changes with free hit. 0.7 still in the bank and not sure what else to do. i could get alli in but im not too confident with spurs

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,328 ✭✭✭nullObjects


    Secretly hoping my account gets hacked so they've to deal with this week's transfer

    Think I'll bank because I only see a small upside to swapping out any of my players who blank, will want most of them back more or less straight away too

    Matches are not great this week, I've taken a hit to get an extra player in, but not sure if it's worth it now
