    Bailly about to drop tonight.

    Anyone getting rid before the drop?

    Rather bank the transfer but also don’t want to lose out as the 4.5 mids not too enticing and then prices me out of upgrading 0.5 elsewhere (unless said player has also dropped)

    Dewsbury Hall the only one half tempting me at 5.0 or less. Already own Pereira.

    Thanks all.


    I put TAA back in. Yes Utd are terrible right now, but I just have the fear that they’ll have a good game next week. It’s a gut thing, probably very wrong, and the stats don’t back me up, but there it is.


    I made a transfer as well, Andreas to Jensen.


    line up

    Raya

    TAA Cancelo N. Williams Zinchenko James

    Salah Martinelli Jensen

    Haaland Jesus

    This is the one thing I increasingly hate as I get older about fantasy football - price rises/falls.

    It was grand when I was young, single and bugger all responsibility - loved nothing better than trawling through sites like FPL Statistics, seeing who I could catch on the rise/dodge from dropping but now it is just plain hard work/time consuming

    Presuming you meant 'Bailey' about to drop, I am in the same boat.

    I have 2 free transfers and should probably use one, rather than wasting it, but would prefer to wait until the end of the week to decide what to do.

    Have Andreas, not sold on da Silva or Jensen, could try a lucky dip into the Wolves midfield, March & Lallana could have scored at least 2 each against Newcastle, Dewsbury Hall is probably the best bet in that price range. Want Rodrigo but need to find 0.6 million somewhere (0.7 if Bailey drops).

    I think I am just going to stick tight and do something Friday evening.

    Rashford stinking up my team, gone for Diaz and walker in robbo and rashers out, think Diaz will be buzzing after that goal and with Nunez out could be a good outlet for attack, walker seemed like solid 5m option, and rather double on city at the back than arsenal,

    Williams is starting to look a decent starting option now moving forward also



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,836 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    I own Bailey and haven't really had the time to create an escape plan for him yet. I guess that time is now! While it's not nice to lose team value, it's also on a sub for me.

    I like Brentford's run but their only options in the price range for MIDs are Da Silva who is really outperforming his XG, Jensen who doesn't really get goals & assists usually & Damsgaard who hasn't played yet.

    I might just have to go with Da Silva and catch a price rise perhaps. Maybe even 3, and gain 0.1.

    After all, it is a sub swap mainly, or a player number 11 at best.

    Brought in Xhaka for Bailey, rolling other FT.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,836 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Is Brighton 's Gross an option or is that 2 goal game a once off? He does take penalties tho, I think.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,487 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    With Maupay seemingly heading off, Gross could well be on pens.

    I'd like him myself in place of Bailey but too expensive for me.

    Could do without the Bailey headache!

    I think the stats for Brighton's Penalty conversion rate, might be work a look.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 579 ✭✭✭Local_Chap


    Open to correction here but I don't think your second transfer roles if you make one transfer



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,707 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Here we go!

    Son, Bailey and Cash to Kulu, Diaz and James for a hit.

    I'm almost certain James will get injured and Son will go on fire in the coming weeks but not going to hang around waiting like I did last season



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 690 ✭✭✭joeyboy11


    Do you think kulu will be rotated with Richalison? I like what I saw of kulu in the first game and If richarlison wasn’t around I would get him.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,707 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Possibly...it's hard to know with any of the big teams.

    Kicking myself I didn't go with Kulu from the start tbh....never had any luck with Son



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,801 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Decided to take the drop on Matty Cash as I’m not a fan of making transfers 4 days before a game. I was hoping he wouldn’t drop till closer to the weekend, but patience is not a common trait amongst FF managers it seems!

    Anyway, I was looking at bringing in either Cucurella or Rico Henry (and bank the 0.4 for upgrades). I can still bring in either but another option is to roll, play Cash, and see how this week goes. If Mount doesn’t perform I could downgrade him and upgrade Cash to James or Cancelo with my 2FTs.

    Any views?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,487 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Did Bailey to Lavia last night before the drop.

    Feels like a wasted transfer but that 0.1 price drop on a player I'm likely to get rid of soon and won't play this weekend would be awful for me.

    Will give Grealish another week, himself and Haaland seemed to work well in pre season so maybe this weekend he'll start over Foden and finally get some returns..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,568 ✭✭✭Miley Byrne


    Exact same move as me. I also think Nunez being out could benefit Diaz.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,904 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    Think I'll try and carry the FT this week. I've a couple of players that I'd like to change but it can wait.

    Bailey drop in price last night makes a move now more difficult. I just didn't know what way to go so didn't want to jump in before the drop but now I'm kinda snookered. Will be a move out for Robbo I say to fund something, and try and get on the Brighton / Brentford train maybe as don't feel like starting Neto v Spurs this week is an option.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,904 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    Bah, looks like Mount is going to drop tonight. I've already missed out on a few price rises, so losing 0.1 from the squad value will annoy me. They have some decent fixtures coming up so maybe I should ride it out. This is the part of FPL I hate!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,834 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    gah had to sell Bailey last night and now Ive got to make a call on Mount. I do want to hold but him going to 7.9m then blocks off a move for the other 8m mids. Im really regretting not leaving 0.5m in the bank and spending the full 100m.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,904 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    Yeah, same here. Was going to go with KDH over Neto to begin with, which would have made these moves easy, but I spent the extra 0.5 on the Wolves man. 🙄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 286 ✭✭bodking




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 286 ✭✭bodking


    Jesus comes to mind



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,033 ✭✭✭ForeverYoung90


    Is Neto a hold or a sell at this stage? No returns from first 2 games and other options coming to light.



  • Posts: 12,761 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]



    I have him for now, on the subs bench this week.

    He’s still owned by 14%, so I’m not too bothered to move him on until after week 6.

    Saying that, he is my lowest scorer so far, so I may get rid next week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,892 ✭✭✭LostArt


    I've already got rid of Bailey this week, I'll probably move Neto next week

    Would you start Neco Williams or Andreas this week?
