Game week 14 transfer thread

    Used mine already as I have a transfer strategy that is very price sensitive and did not want to loose money on Jota if he dropped again. Now replaced Jota with Anguissa with this weeks free transfer but my dilemma now is how to invest the 4.6mill built up in the bank for next weeks transfer. Any opinions appreciated:


    Option a). Wilson to Kane leaving me with a non starting defender and one point cameo appearance regular Brewster.


    Option b). Brewster to Ings which should allow me enough in the bank to replace Mitchell with a playing defender with a view to bench boost soon and also keep Wilson as a regular starter and play 343.


    Full squad currently is:
    Martinez, (Ryan)

    Coufal, Targett, Taylor, James, (Mitchell)
    Salah, KDB, Son, Fernandes, (Anguissa)
    Bamford, Wilson, (Brewster)


    Struggling to break into the top 1mill OR this season and progress has stalled since I brought in KDB a couple of weeks back.

    You'll also need to start planning for BGW/DGW*.

    Kane will give you 2 x SGW, whereas Ings will blank + DGW.

    *If you're using WC or FH, then I'd bring in Ings, you have Son as TOT cover.

    Sorry but what are all those abbreviations? I know DGW but the rest?

    BGW = Blank gameweek
    SGW = Single gameweek
    WC = Wildcard
    FH = Free Hit

    Zaha or grealish for jota. That's my conundrum. Saving the other transfer. At a point where I'm not sure what direction to go. Will leave myself in a position to upgrade/downgrade between mids and fwd premiums I think. See how next week goes.

    Drawn to Zaha for some reason. Feel grealish might go cold for a while.

    I'd prefer Zaha in a choice between those two as well. Had Grealish for a while last season and he went far too many games with no attacking return for my liking.



    Thinking of deciding my Kane or Ings dilemma based on how Wilson gets on this evening.


    The bare game week /double game week planning for me looks to require a free hit on the bare game week as I have too many players missing that week. I suppose that benefits the Ings choice as I can have his double game week and bring in some other striker on the free hit on week 18.


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


    I’ll be moving on Lamptey to a West Ham defender. Lamptey is somewhat similar to Harry Maguire-always looks like an attacking return is going to come, but it never seems to materialise


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Big Sam is back lads so what West Brom defender is everyone going for?

    I’m reluctant to do so. The priority has gotta remain managing the Christmas period and potential rotation (and we’ve admittedly seen none of midweek really).

    I’m afraid of changing my team towards one week (assuming I use free hit on the other one).

    Might do KDB to Son - madness?

    Think City have tough fixtures coming up - Saints and Everton, plus not being in form.

    Also need to look at Lamptey to a west ham defender I think, but will hold off till next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,266 ✭✭✭COH


    Looking at Mendy back to Martinez and Jota to Grealish with my 2FT.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Dubliner28


    Grealish Vardy OUT
    Bowen/Ward Prowse in Kane IN

    That's mine at the moment, may change it

    Have Son Bruno Salah DCL already

    Make that three of us. Lamptey is fairly permanently on my bench anyway, don't have any pressing issues with my team, so getting Coufal in with a view to the DGW.

    Ryan and Jota out, not sure who to

    Need to think of the DGW strategy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    May rage transfer Vardy, Mahrez and Torres - talk about a punt gone wrong (City score 3 goals in total against Fulham and West Brom, and despite starting and scoring against Burnley sees no actions in the 2 of those games)

    Bruno, Son and Adams in.

    My defence still needs a bit of sorting out but can't be dealing with Pep roulette. Watch the two lads start and score 20+ points between them at the weekend now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,039 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    There were posts in the match day thread about Jones but I think this is more relevent here.

    Very comfortable at passing the ball into the box tonight to create chances. He played the ball before Salah scored and creates 2 chances including Mane's shot that that Lloris saved. Had his own shot saved too.

    4.4 and starting a lot. Great enabler.

    Ryan.

    For the first time 0 ITB. Problem is he is 4.4 and only keeper I can replace him with is Sanchez his replacement (4.4)

    Not sure whether to just go with no GK til funds become available

    Motm for me. I disagree that Keita will take his place when he's fit but Thiago will obviously start ahead of him. He's not really what you need for a bench player as he's a rotation risk, he's one to watch if Liverpool keep getting injuries.

    The lack of Liverpool subs tonight is currently leaning me towards a lot of changes for the early game Saturday morning from the start. Origi, Minamino, Keita etc playing, maybe even Ox.

    But that WBA game at home could be the one. Big Sam will have WBA sitting deep to frustrate. Might just give Jones the chance to take a shot.

    Keita was ready to coming on but the final whistle went, so hard to know if he has 90 mins in him or would he start and play 60. As with most sub 4.5m player they can be in/out of team - but can't be relied upon if you need something from the bench. if you can stretch to 4.5, the likes of Bissouma, Mendy, Romeu or Anguissa are solid starters week in, week out.

    Liverpool have an 8 day break after Palace. I can see the bulk of the starting XI tonight being used again. Matip for Williams and an outside chance Keita starts for Jones.

    Might do Ings to Bamford.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,205 ✭✭✭Shanee.


    Mitchell to Coufal


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭Jim Gazebo


    I think I'm leaning back at grea!ish. Will wait for him to play despite losing 0.1 on jota tonight. Still unsure. It's either neto, bowen, grealish, lookman or anything up to 6.7 if I want get son/ings later. Have 2ft on!y using one, need ft over Christmas

    Yeah but you’d still have him for all those games afterwards and he is 4.4.

    Lamptey is the only viable route into that defence and it’s not primarily for the clean sheets

    This is the conundrum.

    However I do think Brighton defensively were looking good in terms of in possession, out of possession & chances against.

    Ryan has just been a bag of **** this year (conceding virtually on all shots) his xG has been horrific.

    Do I waste a transfer or go Mahrez to Grealish, Ryan to a 5mil keeper for -4.

    Who is there long term?

    The Brighton fans seem happy with Sanchez from what I was reading, he seems more commanding and as you said Ryan has been conceding a goal for every two shots or so. They've only one clean sheet less than West Ham now who have been touted as one of the better defences this season.

    Brighton have looked solid in defensive metrics this year overall, but they just can’t be relied on.

    Have been a Lamptey owner since GW2 but that’s purely down to the ridiculous attacking potential at 4.5 price.

    Any chance stones gets back in after city failing to keep a clean sheet other day. Brought him in off the back of their little run with him in but think might have to get rid again straight away.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,708 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Have 2FT and unsure what to do, might be time to upgrade Mitchell and Burke. Anyone better than Lewis or Alioski looking the best options for a cheap 5th Def?

    Considering O'Shea as my Mitchell upgrade since he is 4.3mill but would like to see how the team is set up under the new manger first. Lewis has looked poor as a defender and Leeds don't seem to be worried about clean sheets. For the extra cost 0f 4.5mill Furlong has looked to be capable of attacking returns as well but that might not be the done thing with West Brom with a new playing system likely under big Sam.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,501 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    I've gone Rhys Williams as my fifth cheap defender, as a direct swap for Mitchell. Dropped straight in to the line-up too for Palace, mainly due to both KWP and Cancelo playing each other. Only discovering now that Sanchez is starting ahead of Ryan, whom I had to start this weekend. May hope City don't do too much damage against McCarthy so.

    I brought Charlie Taylor in at 4.4. for the last GW, not to play him but to have over Christmas. I'd rather have someone who is nailed and has the chance of an odd clean sheet, rather than a rotation risk, especially with the backlog of fixtures, and people missing out due to Covid

    Depends what your plan is for the doubles?

    Brighton play in 18, so while it might take a minus 4 it might set you up (as well as stop stressing about line ups over Christmas)

    Yeah have Taylor as well, might splash out on Coufal but gives me no funds to upgrade Burke then except the 4.3 I sell him for.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    So I've got a wildcard burning a hole in my pocket all season so far, and it's quite possible I'll wait until the next GW to use it. I'm genuinely happy with my squad or 80% of it at least. So looking for some suggestions in general?

    I'll preface it by saying it's likely that I'll do KDB back to Salah after the reverse was a dud this week!

    0.8 ITB

    McCarthy - Johnstone
    KWP - Coufal - Justin - James - Taylor
    KdB - Bruno - Son - Grealish - Soucek
    DCL - Bamford - Werner

    Swapping KdB for Salah immediately halves my spare funds to 0.4

    Goalkeeper:
    Been very happy with this combo, with Big Sam arriving then gotta keep Johnstone. Need a Villa clean sheet asset so it's either swapping McCarthy or KWP for Martinez or some Villa defender

    Defenders:
    For the bargain bucket defence it's something I've been mostly happy with. Maybe a Southampton CB would be better than KWP? Will wait for Justin to lose his place first. Bizarrely James is most at risk as Chelsea have started conceding again and maybe teams know to block James off at source.... but again it's change for change sake? Coufal and Taylor are good too

    Midfielders:
    Son is going nowhere. Bruno is unlikely to be going anywhere. KdB/Salah are likely to be one or the other. Soucek is the best 5th mid option, for his 3 goals I've had him come off the bench twice. Grealish is most under threat, but again not imminently?

    Forwards:
    No reason to sell DCL whatsoever. Bamford has ticked over in the few weeks I've had him. So it leaves Werner? Even if I did sell him then who's a better option in that range?

    I'm at around 120k as things stand in this GW so not under pressure to go full Prodston either :pac:

    Any thoughts are welcome? Cheers.

    Your team is very similar to mine. Why do you have to pick between KDB and Salah though? I have both with Son & Bruno.

    You could change Werner to Callum Wilson or Che Adams and that frees up cash for a premium midfield.

    My team is

    McCarthy, Martin (never plays)
    Dallas, KWP, Coufal, Dier, Justin
    Bruno, KDB. Salah, Son, Anguissa
    DCL, Adams, Wilson


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,503 ✭✭✭thomasm


    McCarthy, Nyland

    Zouma, Balbunea, Walker Peters, Kilman, Jamal Lewis
    Salah, Son, Grealish, Soucek, Bruno
    Kane, DCL, Watkins



    Have no idea what to do with this team. Hoovering around 500k all season. Have two FT and wildcard. Nearly every player has risen in value.



    No need to change Salah, Son or Bruno. Grealish has good run of games coming up and Soucek is good value.



    Kane and DCL are consistent and Watkins again has good fixtures. DCL to Bamford frees up some cash and likely to have similar returns and can do that with free transfer.



    Any defensive suggestions. Zero in the bank. Feels like a waste of a wild card but cant see much value in playing it currently.

    Although I don't you need to wildcard, You don' t have long left to use it.

    Move 1: DCL to the likes of Wilson, Adams, Fabio Silva

    Would give you the funds to sort out these

    Move 2: Balbuena (injured, no idea how long he's out)

    Move 3: Kilman (place lost)

    Move 4: Nyland (no longer a Premier League player)

    Possible 5th move: Southampton defence double up, not a issue but I'd move one on to spread the misery/ potential clean sheets from different teams.


    Cheap Defenders I'd consider
    -Taylor
    -Leeds Defender (Dallas or budget Alioski/Cooper)
    -BHA Def: Webster, White, Lamptey
    -Rob Holding (4.4 for an Arsenal defender seems great value to me no matter how bad they're playing)

    GK:
    Johnstone (Big Sam and upcoming DGW) in for Nyland


    The (4 moves or 5 if being very picky on double Saints defence) above don't seem like 'wildcard-worthy' moves but they're the only things I see that can be improved from your squad at the moment


    If you want hold on to the WC for as long as possible (closer to blanks and doubles) and to keep your 2 FTS for next week.
    I think Balbuena out for a 4.4 or 4.5 Def is the only single move you can make, you'd be offloading an injured player and can afford another starter.

    Possible 5th move: Southampton defence double up, not a issue but I'd move one on to spread the misery/ potential clean sheets from different teams.


    Cheap Defenders I'd consider
    -Taylor
    -Leeds Defender (Dallas or budget Alioski/Cooper)
    -BHA Def: Webster, White, Lamptey
    -Rob Holding (4.4 for an Arsenal defender seems great value to me no matter how bad they're playing)

    GK:
    Johnstone (Big Sam and upcoming DGW) in for Nyland


    The (4 moves or 5 if being very picky on double Saints defence) above don't seem like 'wildcard-worthy' moves but they're the only things I see that can be improved from your squad at the moment


    If you want hold on to the WC for as long as possible (closer to blanks and doubles) and to keep your 2 FTS for next week.
    I think Balbuena out for a 4.4 or 4.5 Def is the only single move you can make, you'd be offloading an injured player and can afford another starter.

    Thanks for that, makes sense on the defence. Not the sexiest wildcard but will help longer term ðŸ‘

    Move 1: DCL to the likes of Wilson, Adams, Fabio Silva

    Would give you the funds to sort out these

    Move 2: Balbuena (injured, no idea how long he's out)

    Move 3: Kilman (place lost)

    Move 4: Nyland (no longer a Premier League player)
