Have 2FTs - wouldn't mind getting in Ronaldo v Brighton.
Also need to decide on getting a 2nd City player v Newcastle.
Will wait as long as possible to make a move.
-16 to get a team :(
Dennis to Wilson
Antonio to Watkins
Benraham to McGinn
Liv to Tomiyaso
Guehi to Cash
Thats 11 playes and a yellow Regulion on bench :s
Will be taking a -4 before deadline for the same 2 players in to get me 11 active players. Not even caring of price rises these times.
Still pondering this one....only have Bilva for the City game (I suspect KDB and Foden are the ones to have this GW).
Hopefully Wilson can do something... desperate times lads
Took a -8 last night to get potentially 9 players. I only had 5 before hand.
Antonio, ronaldo, gray and livramento out
Watkins, lacazette, foden and Tierney in.
Gives me a starting front 9 of
James, taa, cancelo, Tierney
Salah, foden, Bilva
Watkins, lacazette.
No goalkeeper, not bothered. Missing an attacker but can't see anyone else who's worth another -4.
And sure if games are called off, well, lol 😆
Can take a -8 to get me to 11 players with Bilva flagged
Burn -> Cash
Loftus Cheek -> Ramsey
Maupay -> Wood
I heard Bsilva is a niggle. I put him first on the bench and did the transfers. Seems to be very minor - but knowing Pep he will likely rest him.
Fair play, not easy with so many out. Such a lottery at the moment.
The only thing with taking hits for players this week is that it's really only a -2 in a sense as the player you're replacing will get no points regardless. So instead of needing 5+ points from your shiny new toy and your 'old' player to stay quiet, you only need the new player to score 3+ points for it to be worth it, knowing your old player will still score 0.
How I currently am. 1 free transfer. Thinking of Gallagher to foden or salah to Kdb. Is there any chance silva and foden both start a game together
Remember to think in terms of the next few game weeks. Taking a hit might not be a bad decision but you need to make sure you like the look of your team for at least the next 3 weeks, not just this one.
Ah balls the Villa game off.
This. Its actually the most opportune time ever to take hits when you know holding a player you have is going to deliver 0 points. So long as the new player starts, plays 60 and doesnt get booked the hit is only a -2 to what you would have had with a non playing player.
Similarly its the worst possible time to play a free hit just to get an extra 3 or 4 players on the pitch. These blanks mean double gameweeks ahead where those with the free hit chip can get 22 chances to score points rather than only 11 by using it this week. There could be a 50-60 point swing between using a free hit this week and holding off for the double gameweek.
ffs
Brought in Watkins already. Fcuk sake. And I was relying on Lowton and Brownhill. I have 6 players now ...
**** sakes -8 to fill a team with Watkins and ming's and now it's off. **** hell
Fuk this variant is rampant
Deadline I think should be 4pm now for anyone thinking of getting transfers for the Arsenal game.
Not confirmed but would make sense.
Deadline gone to 4pm
thank god I was holding off bringing in Watkins til the last minute
They'll have to call the whole thing off next week.
It is. I set an alarm on my phone for 1pm so I would remember to do my transfer before deadline. Just changed it to 15:30 now. This game week is a joke. 6 of 10 games postponed.
The players who test positive have to isolate for 10 days so most of them wouldn't be available next week anyway meaning the same teams will have the same problem next week. Even if no other teams have outbreaks, is that going to be 5 games postponed next week? That isn't really workable.
Villa game going down on the day is pretty sick. Cost me big time.
So long Watkins, hello Lacazette lol.
This is farcical now...the games should be cancelled this weekend
Carnage all around now.
Didn't make any moves yet thank ****!!
Glad I waited, learned my lesson after bringing in Ronaldo and Dennis last gw.
Lacazette now likely to come in with Tierney
Literally just took a -8.
I give **** up
Same boat, wondering if. free hit to cancel it might be the way forward?
deadline still saying 13:30?
No, it's 4pm on official app.
