GW32+ transfer thread

I have no captaincy option next week.
I can not even bring myself to type what I am considering. For a hit :eek:

I won't do it though. Although I have a feeling next week could be FH crazy and this player is the standout captaincy choice. For people who hates themselves enough.

i could then sell him and get Rashford (and maybe son) the following week

Jaysus I am getting tempted

No matter what I do over the next few weeks is going to involve a hit to facilitate a rejig I think

Curious on sample size too tbh.

Scoring more goals out on the wing makes sense if he has played far more out there. Also, he may have had more penalties etc (around .77xG) while playing out on the wing

They said he's played 28% on the left and averages 0.83 goals there which is much higher than when he plays central. He also gets 5.8 touches in the box which is more than he got centrally. It's based on all the games he's played since joining them.

Is Traore the best midfield option under 6 million now? I kind of want him this week but all these Portuguese lads that I don't know that well but also appear to be wingers make me worried that he won't be a regular.

'Aubameyang has actually scored most of his goals when playing out on the wing. Not only that but he has a higher rate of goals per 90 when starting wide on the left.'

Xg is very similar too. Marginally better up top.

In what sense is he more effective though?

To Arsenal in general and their results have been better? The focus here in the end of the day is goals/assists, and they’re better with him playing as a striker.

The athletic ran a story a few weeks back about how Auba is actually more effective from the wing statistically

Trusting my pool mids and captaining them against city’s high line ...........
Will decide after tomorrow nights game .....

Yeah I'm considering Mané. Other option is Jimi and as much as I love his consistency, I've no interest in captaining him.

Ritchie replacement, not sure who.

Might go all the way down to a 3.9 and just play DCL or Femenia

Not sure why you'd get Auba while Arteta is insisting on playing him out on the wing.

One of the best Shots to Goals ratios in the league and yet he's being thrown on the wing limiting his shots taken.

Cheers...it'll save me a hit not bringing him in. I might risk Pepe instead!!...

We'll agree to disagree so. Watching the game, I thought he was a threat.

In terms of the xG element of it, that is how it works though. An accumulation of lesser chances.

I have him in my squad already though (free hitted 31 and he wasn’t included), and with Norwich being what they are, I’m heavily considering captaining him. But I don’t think I’d transfer him in for that if I didn’t already have him.

His stats away to Brighton are not impressive. If he had 4 shots on the box and still such a low xG he was taking low percentage shots.

I'm not being anything apart from blunt, Norwich are awful. Those stats away to Brighton are actually impressive and although you are right about his position he will be given more licence to come in field against Norwich than he would away at City(I wouldn't even bother looking at those stats). I'm only keeping him for 1 week though as I have a wild card so it's a tougher call for others without that option.

No need to be like that.

I'm using a constructive argument - I'm trying to help the poster.

Home advantage factor has been significantly reduced over the behind closed doors period in all leagues.

Since the league came back:

Against City he had 2 shots (1 inside the box) - (0 on target)
Against Brighton he had 7 shots (4 inside the box) - (3 on target)

0.69 xG for the games combined
Best chance was 0.21 xG

I'd actually avoid Arsenal attack altogether (and there's genuinely far better value in the game than someone playing as a Winger at the moment)

Gonna take a -8 to get rid of the DGW players I brought in. The cost of wasting a wildcard in GW37

Leno/Samatta - Martin/Greenwood for the funds

then using the funds to go
Pukki - Rashford

Leaves me with
Patricio
TAA Laporte Doherty (Stevens Egan)
Mane KDB Fernandes Sarr Grealish
Rashford Jimenez (Greenwood)

ThewhiteJesus

mendy and leno out
martinez and alonso in

Kane in for Aguero

If Auba was guaranteed to start up front then it would be fair enough

But with him out left, he's nowhere near as effective and Arsenal are awful, they create very little

Would love Auba but can’t afford him. Don’t think it’s worth a hit. Maybe Pepe in for Son.

Planning to bank after WC.

Will possibly spring Saka from the bench ahead of a striker (Ings, Jiminez, DCL)

Salah and Ings out

Clicked on the wrong thread and thought this was team news. I nearly creamed myself as a non Salah owner :pac:

sheroman01

Salah and Ings out for Pepe and Auba would be tempting but I can’t. Because I already have Martinez and bloody Guendiuzi!!!

Vardy to Kane done. Going to go for Kane as captain next week as well.

He looked good tonight
I do not like his fixture next week though
Have a feeling O Connell will be back by then too
