Gameweek 26 DGW Transfer Thread

NabyLadistheman

So we’ve a double gameweek which people could not prepare properly for as the fixtures were not announced until after the previous GW deadline, surely a first for FPL!

Despite this plenty wildcarded with a view to bench boosting. My conundrum is as follows:

I have Salah, Sterling, Gund, Bruno & Raphina. One of my three premiums needs downgrading, probably to Barnes so that I can upgrade Antonio to Kane, who I intend to TC.

In my mind I had decided Bruno out but the man will absolutely kill me in rank if I sell. He keeps returning and it’s actually senseless for me to get rid.

So that leaves me with Mo/Sterling. I don’t care what anybody says but selling Salah before Sheff United away, Chelsea & Fulham at home does not seem like the move to be making. I know what people will say but the more people that sell the better because having Mo as differential is a good position to be in. That leaves Sterling who I think the axe will fall on. I just feel Pep is going to rotate and it’s risky business especially as I have Gundog already. But selling Sterling before 2 home games in a gameweek doesn’t seem right either!!

Reguilon probably the safest, he's fully back from injury now and is just better than Davies particularly going forward. I think you could feel good about him, but he's 5.8, that bit too much for me

Just checked, he actually only 5.5m, so straight swap for AWB is possible. hmm

Ah yes sorry just realised the error.

I'm still considering Aurier despite being advised against it by my friend who's a Spurs fan. If he could start 2 of the next 3 and the blank 29 it would likely be worth it for me.

Otherwise I could bring in Reguilon, and then bring in El Mohamedy instead of Konsa. These hits are probably only worth it if the player plays in 29 too .Trying to get an update on Cash's injury and Smith has said he'd be back either for the Spurs game in 29 or the week after. Then there's also Engels who's back fit and I believe can play right back.

Any Villa fans care to comment on El Mohammedy as an option for GWs 26-29?

Or generally whether Aurier and Konsa is better than Reguilon and El Mohamedy?

Anyone tempted to bench Cancelo? A lot expected him to be rested last weekend but he played full game and again midweek. I fully expect him to be rested for one game. I can start another DGW player in his place (no Bench boost)

Played my wildcard. So its
Martinez
Digne, Cancelo, Dias
Lookman, Bruno, Son, Gundogan
Kane, DCL, Watkins

Subs-Pope, Aina, Raphinha, White (Brighton)

All starting 11 have double games and 2 on the bench.... Now, who do I pick as captain??!

How Soon Is Now

So no proper update on Maddison then!

Gonna have to swap him for Barnes can't take the risk. So annoying I didn't want to have to go -4 this week.

I like it, particularly if the Villa Everton game gets fixed for GW28. The only negative I would have is how often would you play Pope in the next say 6 gameweeks? If not very much I would maybe download to a 4.5m keeper or even a 3.9m non playing keeper. It would give you more room to maneuver for future transfers.

Thanks, swapped Pope out for Areola. Any other changes you recommend? Bit unsure about Lookman....

Look man, dont do anymore transfers or may just regret them.

:pac:

Sheffield United have some amount of injuries. All those going without Salah will have a nervous evening on Sunday

I got Regulion in this week in my Wildcard too. Had him for the FH week and he was great fun to own. Should have had a huge haul, looked very attacking against West Ham last week too

For this reason alone is Salah the right captain choice?

Mourinho's comment on Kane are annoying as last thing i want to do is bring him in and then he doesn't start.

Im not worried about Kane starting. Even if he to rest him he wouldn't give an indication of it during a presser

I keep looking at Bamford -> DCL and thinking that 2 appearances will cover the -4. DCL probably has a good chance of outscoring Bamford too.

But a -8 is so different to a -4.

Muahahaha

Any suggestion for a Dallas replacement that has a DGW? Was thinking Lookman for the same price. Or given it doesnt sound like Grealish will start is it better to move on Watkins and leave Dallas there?

Don't sell Dallas if not gonna use him this week just bench him. He's a defender that more often then not is up front. His points potential in most games is always very good double or not.

I didn't see the presser, just this comment,

Mourinho on Harry Kane

"In the Premier League he [Vinicius] is going to play because we have so many matches that Kane cannot play every match."

Its almost as if Mourinho has more interest in playing mindgames with FPL managers than the lad in the opposition dugout.

On a -4 already getting DCL and Martinez so I can BB but going to make 1 more change, any thoughts on the below?

A. Grealish to Barnes
B. Cresswell to Pereira
C. Holding to Evans

Any thoughts on this? tempted by A now that Grealish is definitely out for this weekend and Maddison looks to be out also

Maddison looks like he’s out for a few weeks.

Why dont you do holding to a Fulham defender? like Aina?

Issue with your proposals is that none of the new guys play in gw 29.

for this DGW I would probably want to have pereira > Barnes > Evans, in that order. but personally would only want to sell Holding as he is useless (but does have a game in 29)

Ya it's the same thing Rodgers has been saying since last weekend. It's like they don't care about FPL! Ha .

I think the fact he says he’ll see how it goes over the next few weeks means we won’t be seeing Maddison in a league game until the middle of March.

Ya if he's talking like that he won't risk him surely.

Starting to think should I try Son over Barnes to replace Maddison?

Everything of late is telling me no way but what if Kane and Son click against two of the bottom teams!

I already have Kane so again it's making me wanna stick with Barnes but still! Haha.

callaway92

Really annoyed but did Maddison to Barnes. Didn’t want to have to do a sideways transfer like that but I really feel the need for a piece of the Leicester attack.

Honestly, even though I have Son I’ve a good feeling for Bale this week. Would like to have him.

Trey13

Bamford and Justin out for DCL and Digne. Everton have two great fixtures and should be confident after the derby win.

Iused2likebusts

-4 taken bamford, ings and awb to kane , Maitland Niles and Brewster. Have moved away from a strong front as BB played and have FH for 29.

Morzadec

Would Holgate be the most nailed defender/best option for Everton after Digne? I fancied Keane but noticed he doesn't look totally nailed. The only match Holgate missed recently was the home game loss to Newcastle so seems Ancellotti trusts him as the main man at the back

manual_man

Bamford and Vestergaard to DCL and Holgate -4. Bench boost locked and loaded

I’m tempted by him.

Between that or double up on Villa defence with Konsa. They’ve slacked off but the fixtures are great

5.3m defender who we thinking?
