GW34 Transfer Thread

Muahahaha

Plan is Saka to Mount for Chelseas DGW. It had been for Havertz but not after his benching tonight, was surprised he didnt start. If Rudigers groin injury doesnt clear up could also be tempted to take a -4 to get Alonso. The problem though is the Chelsea defence, 4 conceded tonight and 4 v Brentford doesnt bode well to continue the double up.

Also might take a look to see if there is any value in free hitting this week, have two of them left and they cant be used back to back in 36 & 37

Does Saka potentially being on penalties, as well as having a game against West Ham in between their EL games change your stance on selling him?

I was actually thinking about it too, and getting off Arsenal altogether but tonight's goal & result has got me rethinking now again.

I went Saka to Mount.

I can't remember the last time a transfer worked out for me.

Fair warning...

munster87

I also want Mount. Tempted to keep Saka now and get rid of Kulu

Muahahaha

yeah him scoring the pen tonight makes me think twice about doing the move to Mount, the plan was laid after Arsenal lost two in a row but that was a good performance v Chelsea tonight. Mount is in good form though and he has two double GWs (34 & 36) while Chelsea close out the season with a lot of green fixtures. Saka has one DGW in 36 when Im free hitting so could have him back for that anyway.

Part of me would also like to take a punt on Werner but with three 6.0m forwards Id have to take a hit to get him. He is currently the most in form forward in the game though, looks like he has finally found a bit of confidence. I can see him finishing the season strongly.

Thinking of moving Bowen out for Maddison. Dont have the funds to bring in Havertz or Mount. Currently running 20 points clear at the top of our league with a decent team, I hope :)

I've the 2 FH left too, if use this week gives option of picking either gw36/37 to use, if not it will have to be gw36/38. Chelsea/Man u games left me thinking twice about using this week but having 3 city players will surely be a big boost

Father Hernandez

Want some Chelsea and only have 1 FT.

Amartey & Maddison or Kulu out

Alonso & Havertz/Mount in.

Think I'd like to keep Maddison but 3 points in the DGW was fairly pants. Have they given up on their season and focusing on Europe instead? I like Kulu too as he's generally involved which negates any Son points who I don't have. Own Kane too.

Alonso feels a better pick than James given where James played last night and Tuchel comments. Alonso higher ceiling but they are pants defensively at the moment. Is Havertz or Mount a better pick, leaning on Havertz as maybe a higher ceiling.

Taking Bowen out for Mount, was thinking of Kane to Werner but not worth the -4. Also considered Ronaldo for short-term but hard to fancy united against Chelsea and Arsenal.

Had a great GW 33, on 93 points with Pope to play (used BB), so finally back into the money positions in my league.

Arsenal having something to play for in the league again is influencing me. Chelsea don't really have much to play for, only solidifying their top 4 place. But they do have the fixtures that look attractive, especially at the end of the season. I think FH 36 & 38 would suit Chelsea players but the FA Cup final is a few days after the 2nd game in 36 so there will be rotation there, in midfield at least. I do see some disgruntled Chelsea fans at the rotation last night & against Brentford though as it weakens the team they say and Tuchel is doing it at the wrong times. So in a long about way, you might be doing it the right way around by having CHE mids now, but lose them for their DGW in 36 while gaining a DGW ARS mid in 36 anyways by using FH.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118955476#Comment_118955476

Maddison is a regret for me. I'm still trying to figure out whether I should -4 to rage Maddison out, or just get Salah in on his own. At Maddison's price point, the CHE mids are the obvious picks really, unless you can get up to Foden? One less fixture but Man City always hammer Watford and the culture points may be on offer even without a start. Possibly a DGW36 too.

If I do just get Salah, it will have to be Son that misses out, because funds, and I own Kane & Kulu also. That makes me need to keep Kulu and Saka was on the chopping board up until last night but now Maddison is the easy makeweight. I want to try give him the benefit of the doubt against Villa but it's Salah up against Everton so I kinda need to do it this week.

Father Hernandez

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118955692#Comment_118955692

I always look at a DGW as a good time to take a -4 if you're bringing in a DGW player if that makes sense. Will get the extra 2 points (you'd imagine) plus CS, goals, assists if we're lucky.

Never felt confident getting Maddison in, Foden I can get but looking at Havertz for the reason above. Surely he'll start after Lukaku's stinker last night?

Hard to second guess Tuchel and Pep - Havertz a little safer than Foden I think (who I did look at) but the double sways it for me especially with Champions League still on the cards for City.

I'll be captaining Salah at the weekend, could go wild against a crap Everton side.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118955776#Comment_118955776

I'm 0.1 away from doing Havertz, so I would have to do Mount, who I would have less confidence in. His threat from set pieces would be reduced against West Ham who are strong at set pieces and Man United don't concede from them either iirc.

Havertz can exploit the big gaps in both defences, especially with West Ham's injuries at the back, and Man United's Maguire-ness! I would expect him to start both alright, especially after his rest last night and no CL now.

I would 100% FH if I had 2. I am really looking at using my last one now.

You have 3 x City at home to Watford who are chasing down that Gosl difference

You have 3 x Liverpool at home to Everton

You have 3 x Chelsea in DGW.

I genuinely think you could break 100 with those 9 players & good captain amongst them

Chesty08

Just catching up on the thread, serious lack of City being mentioned - is everyone already loaded up?

Im either FH to get x 3 or I’ll go -8 to get Alonso + (Mahrez & Werner) or Alonso + (KdB & 6.2m FWD) for Chalobah, Martinelli & Kane - could take out Kulu or Saka and make that a 7-7.5m FWd

dsmythy

Put a WC together. Was looking at

Kane Havertz 4.4

My heart turned it into

Werner Havertz Mount.

Includes dreaded prearranged -4 to switch back presuming i still want Harry. Not 6 games there but enough games you'd think.

Father Hernandez

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118956059#Comment_118956059

Have you 2 FH's @Chesty08 ?

EDIT: Going back through thread I think you've just the 1 like myself.

I did a FH team out (I have 1 left) and it's beautiful. Thinking surely GW36 is probably better to use though.

Ederson (Steele)

Alonso, VVD, Robertson, Cancelo, Schar

Mount, KDB, Salah, Havertz (C)

Saint Maximin

Subs: 3 fodders who won't play. 0.5 ITB.

Tempting.

Muahahaha

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118955692#Comment_118955692

Like yourself I was pretty frustrated with the Maddison c fail and not captaining Salah. But it seemed the right decision at the time as Maddison had returned in his previous four games and Salah hadnt while Maddison had a double.

I was thinking of rage transferring him too but then I watched the highlights of the Everton game on MOTD last night and he was unlucky not to score, he got a couple of good saves out of Pickford and should have had an assist. I bought him purely for his stack of 9 fixtures in the final 6 game weeks so think Im going to hold him now, anything good Leicester does seems to go through him.

Muahahaha

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118955461#Comment_118955461

Yeah I think the main value in using a FH this week is it allows 3 City players v Watford which could be a 4 or 5 nil thumping. Id wouldnt find much value in Uniteds double v Ars and Chelsea, maybe Sancho as he was the only one who looked lively vs Liverpool.

Does anyone know what site it is you can input your team for predicted points and then enter a free hit team to compare? And do you need a paid subscription to do it?

Is that your FH team or current team?

I had FH of

DdG

Trent Robbo Laporte Cancelo

KdB Salah Mount Havertz Elanga

Werner

Really tempted to go with that. My GW36 team is pretty much set too , the only thing is I only have 1 City player but will have some moves post this week to start getting them in.

Original plan was FH 37 but it’s becoming less appealing

Father Hernandez

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118957117#Comment_118957117

It's a FH team I did out this afternoon. I've 1 left and was saving it for GW36/37.

I love the idea of attacking this week though and trying to get a nice team together for GW36/37 with a few transfers.

Otherwise my team is

Ramsdale (Foster)

White, Robertson, Cancelo, Schar (Amartey)

Salah, Kulu, Saka, Maddison (Dewsbury Hall)

Kane, Toney (Weggy)

Current plan is to go for a -4 and get Alonso and Havertz for Amartey and Maddison.

Or a much wilder -8 KDB, Werner, Alonso for Amartey, Maddison, Kane.

dr.kenneth noisewater

Was trying to figure out how to get Salah in this week but would have to sell KDB/Kane and take - 4. Still have 2FH and BB so might use FH this week now, never considered it before coming in here!

Chesty08

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118957457#Comment_118957457

You’re options are either 34-36-37 & 38.

You can’t use 36 or 38 if you use 37. How is your team set up for 36/37? What was your original plan.

I genuinely think 34 could have massive variance & you could get a jump on some rivals as a few later transfers could cover off FH’s later towards the end of season. You also run the massive risk of dead rubbers in 38. I just think Liverpool, City & Chelsea are attacking this week and you really couldn’t ask for 3 better teams!!!

Chesty08

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118957421#Comment_118957421

The -8 is appealing to me too. However could you rid of Kulu or Saka instead of Maddison?

What would your FH37 team be.. I think we are losing the City/Wolves game to GW36 - which is what my team is setup for so I’ll most likely transfer in another City player by then.

Is 2 City defenders the way to go or Cancelo, KdB & Mahrez the best options if FH this week?

Ill be honest the only thing that is appealing to me on FH37 is that I could be in 2 semi finals in 2 seperate H2H leagues.

Muahahaha

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118956758#Comment_118956758

Thanks, had a play around with that and a potential FH team and it is predicting an extra 14 points. Given Rudiger is now out for West Ham and James is playing centre back I think I might free hit this week, get Alonso, de Bruyne, Mount and a few others in in and use the 2nd FH in 36 or 37.

dr.kenneth noisewater

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118957727#Comment_118957727

Yeah plan was BB in 36 and FH in 37 as 38 can be a lottery. Initial plan was FH in 33 but didn't like the teams so maybe this is my best option alright

Fitz*

Which transfer pairing is a better option do ye think? I'm FH in 36 so this is really 34 & 35 centric.

1) Kane & Kulu -> Werner & Salah (-4)

2) Son & Maddison -> Mount & Salah (-4)

I'm currently leaning towards 2) as it doesn't leave me tied up with money invested in Werner & Weghorst moving forwards and also I would retain 2 Spurs assets in Kane & Kulu moving forwards as opposed to just Son that would happen with 1).

COH

JWP > Mount done as looks like Mount is rising tonight.

whitelightrider

Now the connundrum of who to captain for this week

Chesty08

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118958665#Comment_118958665

Leicester has 2 doubles. 2 home in 36 & 2 aways in 37.

Have a look when the EL matches fall for rotation too.

if FH36 you could always get Maddison back in
