GW29 Transfer thread

Did James, Son and Jimi to Doherty, Kulu and Kane for -8. Salah tc. All in on Spurs so fully prepared to be disappointed.

The official word was illness.

IMO, I had thought that this was just a cover for 'we have a dead rubber CL game and using this as a week off for him, without being disrespectful by giving a kid his debut in a CL knockout game'.

I'm still debating about starting him too.

Looks like good moves to me. I think Gordon is Evertons best attacking player and Kane is on fire. Martinelli might not start both but he's a good long term buy.

Doherty and Robbo in for Kilman and James

Going to BB with

Dubravka, Ramsey, Jimi, Broja

Feels a bit silly but there is a cost to not playing it now

I’m getting tempted to put Periera in defence as a placeholder for when his doubles circle & his game in 30.

Means I’d go Ramsdale over Pickford/Schemeichel & drop Tierney too.

—————

DGW29: Ramsdale & Doherty with x 2 Liv players

BGW30: Ramsdale & Doherty, Pereira + Thomas

or

DGW29: Pickford & Doherty or Tierney with x 2 Liv players

BGW30: Schmeichel & Doherty, Tierney + Thomas

—————-

Where is the most upside? I’m thinking Periera has more then Tierney

Jumping on the this bus, feck it ,it can't go without me.

An obvious -8 to join the crowd and help with BGW30.

James, JWP, Joelinto -> Doherty, Kulu, Laca.

Ramsdale

Doherty - TAA - Rudiger - Cancelo

Kulu - Salah (c) - Raph - Son

Laca - Jimi

Bench: Sa - Broja - Digne - Ramsey

Going to start Cancelo, only an "illness" so has time to get right for Monday. I think he starts.

Also debating about Cancelo.

I have Cancelo & Thiago Silva. I think Thiago Silva is a rotation risk so should I start him and then see if he plays 0 and Cancelo subs in? Or vice versa? There is the chance that both don't play too.

Apparently there is some talk on Saints forums about Broja being rested so that is throwing me a bit too. Maybe it's the fans thinking he will be rested more than knowing he will be.

He had a bit of a stinker last game. Maybe that's part of their thinking.

Seen nothing yet myself

I probably know the answer but I'll ask anyway.

I've White 1st sub. Any merit to starting him over Raphinha (NOR), Coutinho (whu) or Toney (BUR)?

The rest of my players are doubles so not going including. Got White for the double really and have Ramsdale already.

If I had Cancelo, I'd start him all day long Fitz. His attacking threat is incredible and if he's ill, he won't come on or be in the squad.

For me, Cancelo over Thiago Silva.

I'd wouldn't start White over Coutinho anyways. He hit form last GW and West Ham played Thursday night in Sevilla. They may be tired, and concede. You also have white covered by Ramsdale. White doesn't get attacking returns (famous last words).

Maybe Raphinha. He seems to have clocked out of Leeds. Now saying that, I'm starting him!! It is Norwich.

Toney is on pens so there's always a chance of a goal.

Yeah, Coutinho is the least likely to come out. Then, probably Toney but I like him as a bit of a punt against Burnley who have leaked goals recently.

Raphinha the most likely to come out but a lot have him and if he does something against Norwich which he should given his quality, I'd be sick. White a good 1st sub.

Rockstar saying Diaz, Robertson, VVD & Matip all start. Jota bench.
