    Like many I did the Pope to McCarthy switch in GW23. Pope has 49 points since then versus McCarthys 19 points. Pope will be slotting back into my team for blank GW31.

    Similar, only fodder on bench so need a playing keeper and in better form so a no Briner. Getting stung on keepers this season. Never swapped as many times due to various reasons compared to other years where I'd pick 2 at start and never change.

    Have had:
    Heaton, Pope, Gazza, Fab, Ryan and McCarthy so far this season and McGovern on bench.

    And will be getting Pope back in again.

    Looking back, I missed the boat on them all and injuries killed me.

    Prob gonna bank. Would love to get Sarr in but I can't do it without a hit, and one which would probably involve getting Vardy out which feels wrong given his fixture. If I want to avoid a hit I might look at Doucoure or Pope. I'm not sure of chip strategy yet so banking would give me another week to faff around about that.

    So looking like:
    Ryan
    TAA Robertson Egan Doherty
    Fernandes Salah KDB
    Vardy Ings Jimi

    Kdb doubtful, for weekend so im thinkin mahrez for the dgw instead. Any thoughts?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,126 ✭✭✭The real mccoy 91


    Leicester or spurs more likely for a clean sheet this week? Either doing soyuncu to aurier or banking and doing it next week along with mccarthy to Patricio I think..

    I could do Vardy to Aubameyang(c) for free but really don't think it's worth it. It would mean 1 less ft for 31 and Vardy could outscore him in the one game.

    Give me aubas west ham(h) city(a) blank norwich(h) wolves(a) and a potential dgw with Southampton(a) leicester(h) over vardy's
    Villa(h) watford(a) blank everton(a) palace(a) and a potential dgw with arsenal(a) and Brighton(h).

    I'd do it if you have at least 6 players for 31

    Food for thought for sure. Just think West Ham could be a banana skin for Arsenal and they never perform in the big away games. All comes down to captaincy, I'd be much more comfortable putting it on a rested Salah against one of the worse defences in the league, just don't trust Auba or Arsenal.

    I'm thinking the same myself now.

    on WC so no hits involved but want a City midfielder in now for the 2 games while KDB is a doubt. Might leave this one til last minute. But Mahrez surely plays 90 mins over the 2 games anyways? Is Pepe too much of a unknown for the same 2 games?

    Probably will do a transfer but for a GW31 player. If so, I’ll be running with KDB as my only DGW player also.


  • Registered Users Posts: 708 ✭✭✭loadwire

    Yep same. No-one jumping out except for Sarr and he's just at an awkward price for me to get him in.

    I have 2 Ft so have to do one
    Otherwise I wouldn’t

    You still going Ings to Jota?


  • Registered Users Posts: 20 FullMoonFever


    Who scores more points?

    Inga and Mane

    Or

    Pepe and Auba


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


    You still going Ings to Jota?

    Almost certainly
    It just seems silly to sell DCL
    It would also mean using a FT to bring in someone who will be a sub this week
    I would rather buy players for 31 closer to the time if i don’t need them yet
    I would say I am most likely to carry a FT out of 31 at this stage


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,508 ✭✭✭passremarkable


    I’m just wondering would this week be ideal to use free hit.
    Need to bring in auba and de bruyne potentially.
    Or keep it for another week, I currently have no arsenal or city players

    If I am bringing in PEA, I am bringing him in for good. No more EL games so almost guaranteed to start every PL game from here on in. Including 1 double GW and at least 1 more coming. He is a terrific potential captain and/or triple captain prospect.


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


    Think KdB only plays one game. Might switch out in a -4 hit for Aubameyang but not sure which midfielder to bring in


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,387 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red

    Inga and Mane

    Or

    Pepe and Auba

    Pepe and Auba, not even close IMO, both outscore their rival individually

    I agree, Ings could do well this weekend but overall DCL is the better bet and Jota is better than both


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,562 ✭✭✭shmeee

    I've done it.

    Gives me Jota and Jimi up front with ammmmm Vardy who's still hanging around.


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


    Is it crazy selling Vardy or Firmino for Auba? Pity both have such good fixtures this week!!

    I’m doing Vardy to Auba and either KDB to Mahrez or Sidibe to 4m. If I had Firmino I would definitely wait for team news as he might not start in the early kick off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,675 ✭✭✭thunderdog


    Did Vardy and Ings to Auba and Jota. Double Wolves up front with Jiminez. Hoping wolves maintain the form

    I think I'm going to do this, annoyed I didn't just go ahead last night


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,634 ✭✭✭miller82


    dumping vrdy worries me, not sure i can do it. would actually love firminio to be dropped. Hate having him, but again, he has nice fixtures and plays 31

    I feel like that about Auba, he gets the points but no enjoyment from it


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,342 ✭✭✭Porthallian


    Planned Ings/Richy to Auba/Saka but that rise for Auba last night has me 0.1 short. Annoying.

    Have Traore and Jimmi already, is Jota overkill?

    Either Jota and Auba for Vardy and Ings or a simpler Ryan to Patricio
