    I just looked it up there and found this tweeted two days ago

    Not sure why the FPL site is saying he is suspended till Nov 27th when technically his suspension ends after the GW12 fixture on Nov 20th.

    I own him myself and also have Ramsdale. I would have selected Sanchez away to Villa for GW12 over Ramsdale playing away to Liverpool but Im forced into the latter now so wont be expecting a clean sheet. Though Ramsdale is a good shot stopper so he might deliver up a save point or two. At least I didnt have him on the pitch at the weekend for his red, a rival did play him and got -1 while Ramsdale got me 7 points.

    Brentford, Arsenal, Norwich, Burnley, not the worst run of fixtures and Wilson has 4 goals and 1 assist from 7 starts which is pretty good output for his price. Always an injury concern about him though and also Howes Bournemouth werent exactly a gung ho attacking team. Still though I think he is worth considering, just depends if Im going to stick with a 3-4-3 or go 4-4-2 and play Livramento

    Think it's just way it's coded?

    He is suspended until his next match. Think it's always been that way with suspensions

    Did Ben Johnson . 4m but will he keep his place?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,775 ✭✭✭bmorrissey


    Vardy out, Kane in

    A long time ago, the Ryan Fraser / Callum Wilson double up was great value.

    Interesting chat on the Totally Football show podcast yesterday - they expect Howe to focus on attack because he’s never been able to organise a defence at PL level- fewest goals Bournemouth ever conceded was 60 in one season.

    They also talked about how poor Spurs have been attacking in the PL - very few shots on target in the last few games. Their point was that Spurs lack a creator of chances like they used to have with Eriksen.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,781 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    yeah I saw some stat on Spurs for shots in the box so far this season, something ridiculous like only 9 in 11 games. Conte has a job on his hands there. Another stat I saw was that Regulion has never scored for Spurs in 37 PL starts and his cross accuracy is just 28%. People should bear that in mind before thinking he is going to go wild under a Conte wing back system.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,331 ✭✭✭thefallingman


    grealish and jansson out Regulion and foden in



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 41,569 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    As soon as Doherty gets his first start I'll be bringing him in, he's perfect for Conte's system.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,100 ✭✭✭whitelightrider


    Any love for Jesus as a replacement for Vardy? City's next few fixtures arent all bad. Already have 2 Spurs players

    Im considering him myself as a Vardy replacement. In a season where no forward has gone wild he is doing ok (3rd out of all forwards on 50 points) and as Pep roulette goes he seems to get good minutes.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    2FT's

    Tempted to get rid of Gray & bring back Gallagher after missing his 2 big hauls but convinced it wont continue and I've missed the boat. Convince me I'm wrong!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,688 ✭✭✭skippy15


    Vardy and mount out for me I think just don't seem consistent enough, looking at either son/Wilson or Kane/ Gallagher or smith Rowe but think I'll wait on Kane bandwagon to start rather than get on 2 3 stops early



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,817 ✭✭✭bantee


    Right hopefully Kane is whipped off early here, I'll be getting him in for Vardy as planned



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,707 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Kane scoring goals but it was San Marino & Albania. I'd rather he started scoring in the league first, but the fixtures are appealling.


    Currently looking at a couple of different options. Want to eventually bring out one of James/Rudiger for TAA again. And also possibly the other or White for Regulion.

    Havertz is on the chopping board, and only for other transfers I want are taking precedence, it's somewhat saving him.

    I'm gonna do Vardy -> Wilson anyways. Think it will be a fun one. And will free up a good chunk of funds too. Mid price range strikers of Wilson, Jimi & Antonio will keep things ticking along and after the last GW, I'm happy to bench Antonio for some of the tougher games coming up for West Ham.

    Regulion, Son & Kane all on the watchlist but I'm a bit apprehensive about loading up on Spurs before the hit any bit of form.

    Tempted by Cornet but I'm not sure how often I would start him. Maybe I'm just better off getting in a 4.5 for permabench and bringing in each of TAA, Regulion & Kane over the next 2 GWs in addition to Wilson and play 4-3-3.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,707 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Also, I'm half thinking that Leicester may spring a surprise against Chelsea in the early kick off. Score anyways. They will have had a few players not gone on international duty so would be able to work on the training pitch over the break on how to break them down. Leicester generally score every game too.

    Vardy, Maddison, Barnes, Perez, Lookman, Albrighton, Soumare all didn't go on international duty.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,243 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Meh...that seemed like the longest international break ever.

    Looking like I'm going to follow up on a brutally bad transfer of Firmino in by replacing him with Callum Wilson which will no doubt end in more frustration and general headwreck



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,246 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    I have Ings and he's still red flagged but latest Villa video of Stevie G's first session shows him training.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,781 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Im more than likely going to Wilson for Vardy as well, its a bit of a leap of faith but I think it could pay off as he's done very well under Eddie Howe in the past and his fixtures are favourable with Brentford, Arsenal, Norwich and Burnley in the next four.

    My conundrum is whether to replace Havertz with Son or Jota, probably leaning towards Son. I could also do a 3rd transfer for a -4, if I did it would be admitting Mbeumo was a mistake and going to ESR or Gallagher. I might wait a week though as Eze is on the way back and I was reading that he will likely play further forward than Gallagher.

    Another thing I was reading is the fixture list is packed, its 10 gameweeks in the space of the next 40 days from Saturday. There is CL fixtures in there as well so having a playing bench will be important from now to January.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,563 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Out: Vardy, Antonio

    In: Kane, Wilson


    It's a transfer that the outgoing players could easily outscore the incoming players, but gonna hope Kane can continue his run of hattricks against minnows with Leeds (h) this week. Antonio seems to have regressed, Wilson has a nicer fixture run and hoping him being reunited with Howe leads him back to goals rather than injuries

    Might just do Christensen to Reguillon.

    Bench Raphina or Livramento ?


    Or go with -4

    Aunameyang —-> Wilson

    McArthur ——> Jota

    Bench Raphina?


    Any advice welcome



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    I think I might take the hit as there is 10 GW’s in next 5 weeks and a strong bench will be needed.

    A bench of McArthur, Livramento & Duffy isn’t too exciting with Christensen also there.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 925 ✭✭✭rekluse


    2fts Likely Auba to Wilson and Mount to Son, .Son ain't pulling up trees but can't see a better midfield alternative?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,707 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Vardy is close to a drop tonight so might just make that move now as I would lose value otherwise.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Don’t go with the 4.5m permabench option, you’ll need a bench in the coming weeks



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 41,569 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Son in and gets the armband from me too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Current Mood:

    Vardy to Jesus

    Aubameyang to Kane

    Gray for 6.6m?

    -4

    Smacks of transfers that could backfire! :D



  • Posts: 13,753 ✭✭✭✭ Liv Narrow Spaciousness


    I've gone Gray to Smith-Rowe



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Have Smith-Rowe :)


    Think just back to Gallagher or am I mad to take a -4 for that?


    EDIT:

    Vardy to Kane

    Aubameyang to Wilson

    Gray to Jota

    -4


    Done


    Fairly happy with that in the end

    Yeah I’ve done my -4 too of Aubameyang to Wilson & McArthur to Jota.

    Will have a decent front 8 (bench Raphina this week) as we go into the Xmas fun & rotation season
