    With Ronaldo a doubt & Arsenal / Spurs in doubt… I Genuinely don’t know who to captain!

    Can you cancel a Free Hit :)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Earlier Salah to Son transfer backfired badly


    Son to Maddison

    Watkins to Kane for -4

    Not using free hit or wildcard on covid rabbit hole

    "Arsenal were forced to play 71 minutes with 10 men following Granit Xhaka’s red card, and he will now be suspended for the game against Tottenham.

    Cedric Soares and Bukayo Saka are injury doubts after limping off, while four other players are injured or out with Covid and four at the Africa Cup of Nations, meaning Arteta could be without 11 players for the trip across north London."

    Pity there is a game tonight - we could do with the extra time to make decisions

    Might leave the Burnley Watford game in doubt as well….there goes my only ever chance of captaining a Watford player!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 GymTanLaundry


    The postponement really destroys the thinking around Leicester and Watfird players to transfer in and captain. Wish there were a few more hours tomorrow too to have a think.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,272 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Less appealing to bring Maddison in now for Son.

    Reasons to use my FH now getting weaker.

    Burnley Watford probably going to be off.

    Too much of a bloody minefield this season, could really do with deadline being extended.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,639 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Yeah I'm in the same boat.

    I made the very early transfer of Salah -> Son & was going to go again for a -4 to Maddison and maybe captain him.

    The options are getting smaller now. I could end up just keeping Son but a DGW player would be nice. Don't trust Bruno.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,481 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    Same. I had 4 from Watford / Leicester in my FH template.

    2nd highest transferred in Mid this GW so far, Maddison at over half a million transfers in, ouchhhhh.

    Burnley v Watford surely won't go ahead only 3 days after postponed game tomorrow.

    Gonna switch off messing with a FH team etc until late this afternoon as who knows what else may be revealed and also press conferences to come.

    This season is a minefield!!! It's actually laughable at this stage.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,101 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Ffs....this is a lottery now....the Premier League surely can't continue like this for much longer.

    Will be holding on my Free Hits now I think...way too much uncertainty at the minute



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭Benimar


    I'm going to end up keeping Salah at this stage!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,101 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Same.

    Big call now is Ronaldo or Kane?

    Will Spurs still have a double? Ronaldo still yellow flagged.... hopefully get some news today



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,481 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    Egypt could be out fairly soon on what we saw already.... And what's another 2 weeks. Even transferring him out for some one is hard, like who? Pickings are very slim.



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


    Can you cancel a Free Hit



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,481 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    Sadly, no. Once confirmed it's locked in. I was 1 more player away from nearly doing it this morning.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,030 ✭✭✭crushproof


    You should all know by now to leave transfers and chips until the last hour before the deadline! I was hoping to use a FH but unlikely now

    Which I did last night. Sigh.

    Although he is in good form i suppose and now I've got cash if I want to get Salah back easy enough or punt on Kane for a -4 this week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,479 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    After the cancellations, I was half considering the idea of rolling the transfer this week. I've realised that this is actually a bad idea though, considering we seem to be only so many steps away from FH the following week, at any time at present.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,705 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Ronaldo supposedly sent home from training with an injury. Would make Bruno more appealing, although I fancy Villa to beat them





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


    I built my FH team on triple Leicester across the middle.

    Really don’t want to go the Chelsea route but I may be forced now with FH active



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 332 ✭✭trigger26


    Did the same!! Although he will have 4 postponed games to be played over next 17 weeks or so



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,544 ✭✭✭✭gammygils


    Bollox anyway! Transferred Maddison in for Son last night, also have Lowton

    Team in a shlte right now



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    Also did Son to Maddison last night... the game is brutal this season

    Was planning on captaining Dennis for the double but with the Burnley game in doubt now, I don't think it's as appealing versus just Newcastle who seem just as desperate as Watford to stay up. Might bring in Ronaldo for Watkins if Rangnick confirms he's available and stick the armband on him otherwise I might just stick with Bowen for captaincy



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,639 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Madisson will still play 1 game, so it's not the worst thing. I know the DGW is a factor in deciding on that transfer alright though.


    The DGW does influence a lot. I'm debating whether to go Man Utd / Mount / Moura or a complete punt on Trossard.



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


    It’s ridiculous at this stage with all the postponements - “not enough senior players”. There is a bucket load of 23s & academy players.

    A number of Covid cases should be put on it now otherwise you play the game

    I am tempted now to do Kane in for Ron. Maybe pulisic fir salah also
