I think you might have talked me into him, at least as a short term punt. Brighton is a great fixture for a pacy forward player.

Or Foden for a week, I have pretty settled team otherwise

Reid and lookman more appealing. Cavaleiro finishing is poor.

I went to do some digging in the Fulham subreddit. I have no idea how knowledgable they are but there was one or two posts speculating that Mitro might come in for Caveleiro against Brighton. Someone praised his performance against Liverpool but in such a way that made it seem praise was very rare for him. A lot of talk about how poor his finishing is and how they might need to sign a striker in January. Mitro still seems to be the fan favourite and the speculation is that he just won't work against the big boys when Fulham want to play on the counter - so there is a small possibility that Mitro plays against the weaker teams at home for example.

I think I'll go with Lookman or Soucek - I need a player guaranteed to play. Caveliero might be getting chances but has never been a prolific scorer. Lookman is just a far better player from what I've seen and 0.3 cheaper, cheap enough to bench and I don't want to have to waste a transfer here again.

I do think that a punt on Caveleiro could pay off but I think I'll steer clear personally.

miller82 · 14-12-2020 8:08pm

worth doing he following ???:

Kane ----> Adams
DCL ----> Wilson
Jota ----> KDB

8 point hit

have son , bruno and salah and bamford

Chuck Noland · 14-12-2020 8:25pm

Not really sure what to do at the min and my bench is a worry.. Lamptey injured and Kilman not playing any more and Gordon is just fodder. Was looking at Adams - Welbeck and maybe swap out Gordon to Jones or kilman to Taylor. Jones is a gamble so Kilman to Taylor seems to be the safer option. I’d appreciate any feedback

Johnstone
Justin James KWP
KDB Bruno Salah Grealish
Kane Adams Wilson

Button Lamptey Kilman Gordon

Thoughts on getting Welbeck in? Decent run of fixtures and at £5.5m could be a punt.

I got him in last weekend....not a great start to be fair.

Half expecting him to get injured.... he'll be competing with Anguissa for a starting spot in my team

POKERKING · 14-12-2020 8:41pm

Im looking at foden myself. Been in great form in CL. City lacking so much creativity at min he just has to play(saying this as a city fan who has been happy with his cautious development til now).

MR NINE · 14-12-2020 9:02pm

Looking at giroud and mahrez to dedocorva Reid and Bruno

Worth a - 4 to do mahrez to Bruno?

Kilman to Taylor sounds like a good option to me. Kicking myself I left Taylor as second place on the bench last game week and missed out on his six points when Brewster subbed in for Jota with just his usual one point cameo. Hoping Burnley are turning their season around as I'll probably need to play Taylor most weeks myself. Not sure whether the other moves suggested would work out and if you have a second free transfer this week maybe bank it and reconsider what two moves might make sense next week.

I’d need to find .3 from somewhere to make that swap. Most likely swapping Adams for someone 5.6 would be the budget. Bobby Reid & Welbeck seem the most likely.

The real mccoy 91 · 14-12-2020 10:00pm

More than likely gonna roll my transfer have a feeling rotation may be rife this week and it's easier to suffer someone you already have being benched than someone you bring in.

Ederson

Keane vestergaard zouma justin

Kdb fernandes bowen

Watkins kane ings

I do agree but with Jota out alot of us have very skinny benches (only 11 players here).

Feels like a cross roads week for teams.

Think I'll roll and then Robbo/Chilwell/Jota to James/Stones/Son next week

Have Mahrez myself but very worried he's going to be dropped. Currently have him starting with Soucek first sub. Hopefully we might get some info on him. If you get info that he'll start, I'd hold him for this week.

I think all the evidence points to him being benched, as do all the predicted lineups I've looked at. Outside chance he starts (he got subbed off early v utd so maybe has had his rest) and outside chance he gets a decent return from a sub appearance, but Bruno is a much more reliable pick. Only problem is the sub 6m striker market is woeful. Benteke or Reid pretty much.

IrishLad90 · 15-12-2020 12:57am

Normally my transfers are left as late as possible but this week they were decided last night.
I took a hit to replace Bellerin and Mane with AWB and Fernandez

I am strongly considering Bruno as CAPT.
So fat the armband has been to Son, Kane, Mane
Where do you think the points are coming from this week?

Mendy
Zouma Awb Chillwell
Bruno Son Mahrez Ward-Prowse
DCL Kane Bamford

Jim Gazebo · 15-12-2020 4:05am

So potter says he rested Lamptey and now he's saying he's injured. Ffs. Since the wildcard I've just had injury after injury. Rolling this transfer out of stubbornness anyway. GW9 Zaha(covid), GW 11 grealish(no game), gw11 Ziyech(inj), gw12 Jota(inj) and now Lamptey! Destroying me slowly.

miller82 · 15-12-2020 8:24am

many sacrificing Kane for KDB ?

worth it ?

Kiith · 15-12-2020 10:33am

Think i'll use my FT this week. 4 players between Liverpool and Spurs (Jota injured, Salah, Kane and Son), and i'm really not expecting many goals in that game. Also have two Chelsea defenders, and i'm not sure i trust them keeping a clean sheet against Wolves.

Lamptey news at least sounsd promising.

Another days rest too.

Justin or Stones as a free transfer for Konsa

Current Defence is
Chilwell Walkers-Peters Reguilon Kilman Konsa.

Will have 4.9m to spend

Agree, I'd love to bring Konsa in. Great option to have even if you need to rotate.

If possible i would be upgrading Kilman to a playing defender and leaving Konsa.

Yes Stones is cheap but he's also got 4 other central defenders that want to play if fit over xmas so far chance he'll be be rotated, and then you'll be backing on Chilwell, REguilon and JWP not to be missing out.

15-12-2020 10:56am

Jota -> Lookman
Nkounkou -> Zouma (-4)

Figure I need players playing. Last week only 10 played so I feel the hit will pay off over the next few gameweeks.

Thanks for the advice guys. New question so.....need a 4.5m defender in place of Kilman!

Could you hold the transfer?

If you really want to - Charlie Taylor or Dallas

Dubliner28 · 15-12-2020 11:08am

Kane Bowen or
Vardy Grealish(currently in my team) ???

Taughts please ??

If I bank this week I can bring in Kane and Bowen both of who have kind fixtures coming up

Other mids are Son Salah Bruno
Strikers Bamford DCL

Keep Vardy and Grealish IMO.

I'd imagine they will outscore Kane and Bowen this week, don't think it would be a millions miles away regardless.

Nicely set up next week then.

Current plan - use my FT and take out Kane, Salah and Jota, then bring in KDB, Fernandes and Wilson.

Then bring either Kane for Vardy or Salah for Bruno back in next week.

I’ve not much I want to do with my team, and I could bank the transfer.

But I’m thinking Cancelo to Dias would be even smarter. City defence looks really solid and as we go into the congested fixture period, every game that Cancelo gets rotated for would feel like a likely missed clean sheet.

Obviously Dias isn’t 100% nailed on either, but he is much safer and I think if he doesn’t start he probably won’t be subbed on which is what I’d want given that I’d always have one of Chilwell, Dallas and Lamptey on the bench.

2 days later and I think I am going to be Mr Boring and switch my City defenders and have less (but still some) stressing over the team sheets.

patmac · 15-12-2020 12:03pm

First hit in a while
Jota/Robertson/Brewster to Dias/Eze/Wilson still no Salah but hoping Kane and Son can continue to hold him off.

JIdontknow · 15-12-2020 12:50pm

Is it madness to consider swapping Salah to Fernandes for a week punt? Still have wildcard too...

I'd keep Salah. I am keeping him, VC, captain KDB.

Salah will have fans in the stadium and everyone knows its an important game. Spurs will park the bus so odds are a penalty or a long range shot may very well be on the cards.

Just cant bring myself to sell Salah this week and gives me midfield of Salah/KDB/Bruno/Grealish

Depends how much extra it will cost you to buy him back. It's not the worst move

mairtmairt · 15-12-2020 2:40pm

I bought in Torres City (feel he starts for Mahrez) for Jota & only other city player I have is Walker (who could easily be rested). Is it mad to put Torres captain? No united player. Captain picks os far has roated between salah & Kane. A gamble to say the least with PEP Roulette Thoughts?

AFAIK Walker didn’t start recently in the league, think he played champions league match’s. But it’s Pep so ????

Mr.Prodston · 15-12-2020 3:23pm

Who the hell plays for City tonight? Does KdB get rested?

Might consider swapping Salah out again to someone and captain them? Cos the WC now looks like a bad idea this GW :pac:

Dubh Geannain · 15-12-2020 3:32pm

I've too many sheep in Wolves clothing on my team and I never seem to be able to offload them. Kilman and Podence stinking up the place. Podence gets the start every week from me because every time I see him I think he looks class but it's not translating to returns.

Done - Mane (after his price drop so lost .1) to KDB (before his price rise so gained .1) anyway.

KdB will start i would assume. He played in all games in a similarly congested Christmas period last year, and he's consistently their best player.

Father Hernandez · 15-12-2020 4:19pm

On Aguero lads, Pep said this yesterday. 2 days training and into a match? Feels highly risky IMO but best of luck if you go for it.

Hopefully KDB assists all 3 goals.
