Is it too soon to say goodbye to Alonso?
I'm thinking bilva. I already have Antonio so don't fancy doubling up there.
Raphinha to Bowen or Raphinha to Bilva though?
For those with Kane.
Since GW9 Divock Origi has outscored him by 1 point
Raphinha to Bowen unless Alonso is ruled out
yeah Raph to Bowen seems like a no brainer unless you're willing to play Raph against the four best defences in the league. Im sure he will get something somewhere but his next few fixtures are as hard as it gets. With Bowen Im just hopng his recent form isnt exclusively vs good teams, WH have beaten Liverpool and Chelsea in the last four with Bowen playing great in both games but they also lost to Wolves one nil and drew with Brighton in that time. Hopefully though this run of favourable WH fixtures will see Bowen outscore Raph over the next few weeks, I think its worth the punt.
With Gallagher I read the reason he is playing deeper is becasue McArthur is injured, not sure for how much longer though. Theres also Eze who is still coming back from injury and just got a few minutes today, him returning proper could limit Gallagher arrivng late into the box.
I got rid of Mbeumo for Bernardo and even though Mbeumo got an assist today Im still glad to be done with him. But Im fully expecting some Pep roulette on Bernardo at some stage with Douglas Luiz coming in for a likely 2 pointer. But Bernardo hauled 15 points yesterday so its worth the risk for Citys good fixture run, there has to be a few 3-0's and 4-0's in their upcoming games.
Will be waiting for Alonso news before I make any moves. Was going to keep Raph but as Muahahaha said in the match day thread, moving him on for Bowen is a no brainer considering the fixtures. Gallagher is also a problem now which is a pity considering their fixtures are much nicer. Might look at moving him on for a City mid. Have enough itb for the following moves:
Kane to Ronaldo
Raph to Bowen
Gallagher to Bernardo
Alonso to Dalot/Davies
Might bite the bullet and take the -8 this week if Alonso is out. Would set me up nicely for Christmas.
Reguillon said he’ll be back for next week
Definitely. Was gonna go Duffy to Dalot this week but opted for Sa to DDG because I could bench Duffy & would of haven’t to play Sa.
Might go with that this week.
Alternatives would be ship Raphina or Toney.
Mbeumo did get an assist today - there is always a bright side. At least selling Kane gives you lots of options.
I think Vardy to Ronaldo.
Kane owners really have had a torrid time, lots of money tied up in blank after blank. At least there are some good options in midfield to spread the money around. Bamford would be an option to replace Kane but he has awful fixtures for the next 4. Going to Lukaku right now would be another punt similar to Kane hoping he comes good soon. If Watkins gets something here he might be a decent option.
Duffy suspended, Reguillon injured, Toney has Covid, raphinhas fixtures toughen considerably and Mbeumo isn't returing..and yet the first name on my sell list is Harry fcuking Kane!!
Omg Harry Kane, get the **** out of my team you useless bastard and it will be a dark day before you ever darken my door again
Gallagher has to go for me, playing far too deep
Kane to anyone
Dare I say is Fred looking like a good choice?
Gallagher to Bernardo Silva
Dalot could be a good option at 4.4. Full backs look to be playing high under Rangnick and he's a better crosser than AWB. Will be interesting to see if he gets a run in the team now.
I was planning on keeping Toney For the Watford game next weekend and then getting rid. If he has covid then he probably won't play that game so might get rid now. Replace him with broja, Dennis or king. That will give me funds to do Raph to Bernardo. Will leave me without a playing keeper next weekend though.
Was going to pretty much bench Raphinha for the next 3/4 fixtures and hold him but now thinking the obvious move is to Bowen who has nice fixtures and good form. Im surprised neither are close to a price rise/fall so wont do it straight away. West Ham are playing Europa League on Thursday so will wait for that to be over if possible. Bowen was linking up a lot with Antonio yesterday so the hope is they will dovetail well together for goals and assists.
Other option is Alonso to Regulion but Im not taking another -4 so think I'll give him one more week. There is a danger he gets dropped for Hudson Odoi though, that will definitely make the decision for me. Either way I think I want off the double Chelsea defence.
Not sure what to do.
Toney out would be a good chance to get rid
Would like to upgrade Dias to Cancelo but worried about the 4 yc
Banking it might be a long term option also
I would probably save my transfer one of those you are selling could do well. Thiago Silva is a prime candidate for rests over Christmas.
Is this worth a minus 4? (Or worth doing at all?)
James and Gallagher out
Bernardo and Thiago Silva in
I have Gallagher for ages and he has been very good for me but I wonder if I’ve got the best from him. I like the thought of a midfield of
Salah Jota Son Bernardo
That makes sense. I got in Hwang for the two easy fixtures Burnley and Norwich - he did feck all. Fantasy football fix notification told me in had zero attempts in one of them. Benched him v Liverpool - Fantasy Football Fix said zero attempts again.
I think the way Wolves play now they are mostly a defensive team trying to snatch that one goal on the counter.
Delighted to get rid of Hwang I got King in for him. As King is on pens and the way Watford play good chance of getting one in the next three fixtures. Seemed to have a decent shot effort v Man City as well- which was encouraging.
Wolves had the lowest amount of shots by any PL team this season (3), with only 1 on target. Combined total of 0.13 XG. That would not give much hope for any of their attackers going forward over their next games.
At the same time, it does open up the question about double Liverpool defence. But that's hard when you already own TAA & Salah.
I do own Cancelo alright yeah, but I think I need more City players for their upcoming run.
I also own Rudiger, so would be still covered with some Chelsea defence.
From experience of owning Walker earlier this season, only own him if you have Cancelo as well.
Is James -> Walker a good move? Or too sideways?
Good moves imo. Cancelo just doesn't feel like enough for cover for their nice fixtures.
Im looking at Coufal, lovely run of fixtures
