Lemlin and RoryC

I like both of you guys and respect ye as players but the bickering ends today. RoryC, you called Lemlin a bog warrior this morning. Not on. As a mod for this category, I'm drawing a line under it now.

If you want to argue, use the PM function.

Othrwise, I'll be forced to take action.

Jax Teller · 30-04-2013 02:01PM

Well done FG it's about time this forum had a mod who actively post in it .

roryc · 30-04-2013 02:04PM

I've ignored most of his post's so consider it done. Hopefully he does everyone a favour and retires at the end of the season.

@Dempsey - I've done the same move at a 4 point hit. Lambert has really gone off the boil lately.

MOD: Rory, I asked you to drop it. Warning administered.

I think I'm going to wait until the end of the week to make a transfer. I have pretty much all the players I want for the DGW except Aguero and maybe a Chelsea defender.

That's right beyotches. Possibly 11 DGW plyers!

What's your plan for the remaining two GWs?

Mr.Prodston · 30-04-2013 02:19PM

What sort of commitment to my team is this Joe Hart? The joys and lure of Temple Bar may be intriguing but not while you have a DGW coming up. Consider yourself warned, especially after your mistake at the weekend that cost us 4 points! :eek:

Plenty of time for sauce once you get to the end of the season with 4 clean sheets and no mistakes. In fact if you do keep a clean sheet until the end then hell I'll even join you, until then you're Mr.Prodston's b!tch. :pac:

What forward planning. Did you ever consider running for Taoiseach?:D

Right.

The plan was initially to get RVP and Walcott back in for GW37 but Sturridge has peaked my interest.

You might be asking why I sold RVP and Walcott if I wanted them back in straight away.

1) Too many people had Tevez and Mata in a GW where they could have ran wild.
2) I felt (and I still feel) RVP would be rested vs Chelsea and that Rooney and Hernandez would start.
3) I felt RVP would get nothing from open play vs Arsenal and may get a booking with the fans booing him and the Arsenal players getting a few kicks in.
4) I felt Walcott would not play up front (as many predicted) and instead play wide with Podolski up front. Out wide, I felt United had a better chance to contain him.

It was just one of those games on Sunday. Walcott caught United napping early and RVP got a penalty. What can you do! It was one of the times a hit didn't work but my hits have worked about 75% of the time so can't get them all right.

haha thanks, I had a Wildcard in GW33 where I brought in 9 x DGW33 players and 4 x DGW36 players.

I've been taking hits since then to bring in DGW36 players who had a favourable fixture in the DGW I brought them in. Worked brilliantly for Michu, Bale and Lukaku in GW34, less so this week for Mata, Vertonghen and Tevez.

What matters is that I have put myself in with a chance to score highly this week against my rivals in my cash leagues.

Dempsey wrote: »

Would you take a 4 point hit to go from Lambert to Lukaku? Have spare change to get in Benteke aswell but has that ship sailed?

Yes, I've some ground to make up on a rival

My plan, as I said yesterday, is a 4 point hit for Lambert to Lukaku and RVP to Aguero.

Won't do it until Friday night though as I stopped worrying about team value weeks ago.

I'm sticking to attacking DGW players. That's where the points will be made IMO.

Impressive. And I am accepting your advice and making the changes you suggest but you think Mata playing Man Utd and spurs is a better option than Walcott playing QPR?

9 :mad: if he had of held that shot at the end and not spilled it into the back of the net it'd have been his 3rd save and a bp.

If you feel that Walcott is a better option than Mata PLEASE go with your gut instinct. I think Walcott will do well even though he has just one game.

OneColdHand · 30-04-2013 02:47PM

I'm aiming for a front 7 of:

Michu - Mata - Bale - Walcott - XXXXX

Aguero - Tevez

Question:
Who would you get as the last midfielder?
I can afford anyone.

John83 · 30-04-2013 02:56PM

Have done Fellaini to Mata and am planning to bring in Hart as well for -4.

After a good week last week, I've got myself back into a fighting position in my big money league. 15 point behind the leader but only 10 clear of third. The leader currently has 4 DGW players and has made two transfers (presumably bringing his DGW contingent to 6)

Following my transfers I'll also have 6. But additions to the front seven are tempting (Michu/Aguero/Ba)

Current front seven are:

Bale (x2) - Mata (x2) - Maloney (x2) - Cazorla
RVP - Benteke - Kone (x2)

I like Cazorla's and Benteke's fixtures this weekend. I think bringing in Michu for Cazorla could be counter productive with the extra -4 hit but RVP to Ageuro is an option.

Any opinions?

orkkukunkku · 30-04-2013 03:02PM

I dont understand why is everyone transferring Tevez rather than Aguero? According to my knowledge Kun is still the main man for City or am I missing something essential?

Mr.Prodston · 30-04-2013 03:04PM

As things stand I have:
Hart (Bunn)
Enrique/Dawson/Baines (Mickey Turner/Wilson)
Bale/Mata/Maloney/Sessegnon (Townsend)
Lambert/Mirallas/RVP

With .6 in the bank. I don't have a problem taking hits...but I'm looking at 4 transfers which would be -12. Obviously Sess will be gone and was also thinking of a complete revamp of the forward 3.

My thoughts are Walcott in for Sess. I'm juggling between Lukaku/Benteke/Defoe/Kone/Aguero as my strikers. In hindsight Benteke and Lukaku should have been there about 3 weeks ago but I don't have the luxury of that so should I keep away at this stage or jump on the Bandwagon even if the wheels show signs of falling off?

Aguero cost almost 2m more than Tevez, one of the reasons i believe.

Kun has only played 90 mins once in the last 7 games, and that was the last game. A lot of people, me included got Tevez in for Suarez once he got banned. I think I'll have both for the DGW.

I have the same midfield and tevez as well, think its a strong midfield so took a punt on nasri, might be a bit of overkill for you (as would yaya) u have 2 city allready. Maloney has a DGW and might nick a goal, or Dempsey could be worth a punt

Most got him in before last week when Kun's fitness was still a concern and Tevez had looked to have nailed down his place with some good form and ff returns, there is also the price difference I suppose, one bad weekend for Tevez has seen the focus go onto Aguero but either one of them could have a good week, Aguero tends to be a focal point but when Tevez is on form he's involved in a lot of dangerous attacking moves, I have Tevez but I'm currently debating changing to Kun for this dgw, tough to know who will play when considering the cup final, I've a feeling Aguero will be held back for the second game but maybe Mancini wants him to get game time. Tough decision.

roryc · 30-04-2013 03:10PM

Surely Aguero is more at risk of being rested in one game for the cup final? He has played <45 mins on 9 occasions this season, and missed 7 games. Tevez on the same measurements is 5 and 4. Seems more reliable.

Dzeko could be a good gamble if you have <£7m

dont get in Ba he has 2 league goals since he signed for Chelsea and what it probably shows is that chelseas style of play requires the front man to make a lot of sacrifices for the 3 attacking midfielders that play in behind.Id fancy aguero to outscore rvp between now and the end of the season.

Ice87 · 30-04-2013 03:15PM

Anyone looking at Morrison as an alternative for the DGW?

Thinking of bringing in one of Maloney or Morrison. Leaning more towards Morrison at the moment due to a lack of WBA coverage in my team.

Yeah there's so many options I'm not sure what to go for!

I will have Tevez and Aguero, so a third City attacker would be overkill. Actually, what am I thinking, I have Clichy in defence, so once I get Aguero that's it for City players.

Dempsey is a good shout actually. Maloney is a probably a good budget option, but I can afford any mid, so looking for more of a heavy hitter.

Hazard is the other option I suppose, but United away and Spurs at home aren't exactly the easiest games.

Iused2likebusts · 30-04-2013 03:19PM

Im almost certain to go with both tevez and aguero. With city only having 3 strikers I should get a minimum of 270 mins between the two of them.
