Who do you currently have in your team?

You have so many players mentioned there that i dont have a clue what you are trying to do .

Yeah sorry, that was a bit of a late night rambling. Ended up going with something completely different in the end, was 0.1m short of what I wanted so going to keep Ba to get extra profit and will then be able to cash in on him for next GW.

Wildcarded Team:

Szczesny - Bunn

Luiz - Nastasic - Cameron - Demel - Harte

Mata - Walcott - Michu - Fellaini - Puncheon

RVP - Suarez - Ba

Plan is to get Cazorla and Pog in for Ba and Puncheon next week, and then Bale in for Cazorla the week after.

Although I'll have to take 4 point hit next week, the extra 2 points from Puncheon and Cazorla's DGWs will negate this, and gives and extra 180mins combined for possible goals/assists.

What do ye think (any advice appreciated!)? A bit of a gamble (no room for injuries or price rises) but a risk I'm willing to take. I'm 40k worldwide but well behind the leader in my main money league.

(Sorry if in wrong thread, probably is but too late now

Begovic goes against my 3 Chelsea players one being captain. Who knows there might be a peno save thrown in.

Mr.Prodston · 12-01-2013 02:43AM

It's late and I'm thinking about the future.

I think Nani could be a real option in about 3 weeks time. At 8.2 could be a great option....or not. Only time will tell, but I should probably go sleep it off.

I did think of that, but also 0.1 for that transfer! So I think I'll jsut keep Santi and double up on him and Walcott.

Bunn for me, newcastle are a mess at the moment and could struggle to score without Ba, Ben Afra and Cayebe.

Santi101 · 12-01-2013 11:05AM

Begovic for me, no doubt. I have Jussi too.

Always go with Begovic IMO, the only games I wouldnt are away to big 4 sides but even then he can get you a couple of pts at least.

Santi101 · 12-01-2013 11:09AM

Another thing, I fully expect Cisse to have a good half a season now Ba has gone. He scored 2 in his past 3 and was playing different roles to accomodate Ba and even Ameobi vs Everton. In the long run, Cisse will be playing as the main striker now.

Might be worth a go at some point, only owned by 3%. Although possibly slightly overpriced as it is, he costs the same as Ba right now.

Adebayor costs more than Tevez LOL.

prettyboy81 · 12-01-2013 12:28PM

My team this week

Bunn

Cahill Shaw Harte

Puncheon Fellaini Walcott Lampard (c) Bale

Suarez & RVP

Subs; Benteke, Sagna, Demel

sell Lambert, buy Ba - yay or nay ?

I have the cash to do it - but terrified Ba wont get the game time. Also have RVP and Suarez but they aint going anywhere.

i think being terrified that he WILL get the game time, and score goals, is enough to make most's decision

Should have stuck with lambert

Grayditch · 12-01-2013 05:57PM

Gave the armband to Ba over Mata. It's not over yet... BUT I BET IT IS

Clyne for the double vs Mertesacker

Glad I stuck with Clyne. Unless he pulls a Jon Walters in the game against Chelsea

Adebayor has been fairly meh this season, should've scored early on today and missed a sitter against sunderland a few weeks ago iirc. At least he can't prove me wrong for a few weeks while he's on ACON duty:) Dempsey could be a good shout for proper gametime in his absence, 9.0m pricey tho.

Iused2likebusts · 13-01-2013 12:36AM

If Chelsea dont sign another midfielder by the end of the transfer window Im going to get in Lampard. He is going to be going all out to break that chelsea goalscoring record and is great value at 8.4.

They signed Jon Walters today

baa-dum-tish!

John83 · 14-01-2013 10:10PM

I'm a bit confused.

I made a transfer last week but then used my wildcard. At the moment I have only one FT. Is that because this GW isn't officially over?

I wanted to get Fellaini/Lukaka in for Sterling/Ba. Both are going up tonight hence my haste.

Any advice? Do I just take the hit and get one of them in before the price rise?

A transfer doesn't carry through your wildcard. You will only have one transfer.

Oh right so using the WC is counted as one transfer then? Thanks for clearing that up.

Yep.

buyer95 · 14-01-2013 11:51PM

I just bit the bullet and brought in McClean, noble is a doubt for the weekend so I needed to strengthen the bench... Watch now how McClean shows that last weeks performance was just a flash in the pan!

not a bad shout seems to have picked up form is a decent price now and sunderland have decent fixtures aswell.

I would of went for Johnson ahead of him tbh. A brave choice to move away from Michu, Fellaini, Mata, Puncheon, Bale and Walcott though.

Whom would ye bench this weekend fellaini or lambert

Lambert, less potential, I think.

roryc · 16-01-2013 10:00AM

Yep, Fellaini's the main player I'm worried about this week

Lowic Remy joins QPR! Ba-d news for Newcastle

probably a good move he can pull the wool over qprs eyes now, following demba at newcastle it would have been like lambs to the slaughter.

AdpRo · 16-01-2013 05:52PM

I'd say there is a chance that some games may be called off this weekend because of the snow in the UK, good news for anybody who is holding onto the wildcard.......which doesn't include me!

Yeah me neither, could be a disaster! Although to be honest the players in my team should be the core for the next few months so I wouldn't be transferring them out for the sake of one week.

Definitely a chance for people with the WC to benefit though.
