What are your plans for Lukaku, Benteke and Hazard for gw3?

I've been toying with the idea for a few days now.. By GW3 I'm going to be left with two chelsea players more than likely.. So with that in mind - I have put Terry back in instead of Cole and am giving Gunnarsson a gamble @ 5.0 - Not sure of anyone else in that price range..

So the plan is -

GW1 - Lukaku out in favour of more than likely either Bony or Dzeko.. Benteke is more likely to score in GW2 against Liverpool than Lukaku is against United, I think.
GW2 - Probably swap out Benteke for whoever is doing well after two weeks
GW3 - Hazard subbed out for Gunnarsson, Terry subbed out for Turner.. Shouldn't affect me too much.. Cardiff have West Ham so Gunnarsson should do okay, and Norwich have Everton.. not an ideal situation but i wont lose much sleep

Szzcscsc(davis)

Lescott-Toure-Terry (Shaw, Brayford)

Haz-Walcott-Coutinho-Mirallas (kim)

Soldako-Lukaku-Dzeko

Advices please. Lescott or not. Shaw or Collins?

narfsnonsense · 15-08-2013 07:55PM

Im thinking

Mignolet / Boruc

Mertasacker / Turner / Terry / Lugano / McCartney

Walcott / Dikgacoi / Coutinho / Lallana / Mirallas

Bony / Dzeko / Benteke

Any advice?
Left with 4m, possibly for Bale.

cmcgrenra · 15-08-2013 08:16PM

Hart (Given)
G. Johnson, Mertesacker, Jagielka, Luiz (Whittaker)
Mata, Silva, Hazard (Britton) (Nolan)
Lambert, Berbatov, Long

Luiz, Mata and Hazard playing 2 games this week. Mata captain, Hazard vice.

Mr.Prodston · 15-08-2013 08:16PM

I've flipped back from my RVP flop earlier in the week for what appears to be draft 20 :pac:

Obviously Downing is not set in stone at all but I think West Ham could be a good fit and he'll be first choice too. I'm also looking at Lallana but this could be a bandwagon stop gap as I'll be offloading Terry after the first week or 2.

Sturridge seems to be fit and Negredois frst choice alongside Dzeko with less of the risk and could be upgraded to Aguero if he got fit from the Terry cash.

What ye think?

Mr.SlumDuck · 15-08-2013 08:18PM

What you guys think?

Want to maybe get Sturridge in and swap Silva for Coutinho.

Any suggestions on the team?

Actually I've had a look again - better idea

Go 3-5-2 for GW3

GW2 Swap out Hazard for Silva

Sub on Gunnarsson instead of Benteke
Turner instead of Terry

No idea what to do after GW3 though.. bring Hazard back?

I
I think Downing will be a great fit for West Ham but I would wait until Carroll is back, Downing stats when he was at Villa are really impressive if he replicates that here 6 will be a based bargain.

Kerrydude1981 · 15-08-2013 10:31PM

How about this line up

Mignolet (Davis)

Toure,Zabaleta,Mertesacker (Coleman,Mickey Turner)

Hazard,Snodgrass,Nolan,Walcott (Colback)

RVP,Lukaku,Anelka

I dont have the cojones to go without RVP,I put Nolan in as I had 1 million
leftover so replaced Larsson with Nolan.Have I spent too much in defence??

Any advice lads fire away

Could downgrade Zaba to Lescott, since he will more than likely be covering Nastasic while he is out injured. Probably swap him out for Nastasic when he comes back.

Could swap Merte for Coleman - I feel Coleman should score as much as Merte this year..

That would save another 1.0

Sorry: Just noticed Coleman is on the bench.. Swap out Merte for some 4.0 defender that you never intend on playing.. Saved 2.0 total then

Danger781 · 15-08-2013 10:47PM

Hope you saw my edit Kerrydude.. Upgrade Anelka to Dzeko then and you've got a strong team..

Toss of a coin really between Coutinho and Silva. I've gone for Coutinho for now.

City have the better opening fixtures and Silva will most likely start against Newcastle, but with Silva having been at Confederations cup and with City's squad, have a feeling he might not start all the matches early in the season.

Of couse, could be completely wrong ; )

If your looking at Sturridge, i'd probably drop Giroud and Kim and get in 4.5m midfielder.

Think Mignolet or Begovic are better options as a keeper over the season, but the Hammers have decent fixture for the first 4 or 5 gw's.

My team is the exact same only I have Nolan instead of Mirallas.
Am also thinking of going with Silva instead of Coutinho? Who would ye go for?

Dubstar07 · 15-08-2013 11:26PM

I've swapped out silva for coutinho too. Just now considering if i'll change walcott??

On a separate note i've put in a second team but limited players to 6m, just for a laugh. The more expensive players will be out of reach so will probably make transfers easier!

If keep lescott and Collins. Lescott will play the first game or two and who knows he could keep his place. Collins is only a doubt and for 4.5m you won't get a much better defender. I have both. Please give advise on mine please

martin101 · 15-08-2013 11:28PM

Any advise lads? Team good to go?

Yeah I'd go with Sturridge and silva. Silva's first few games look great. Maybe swap around later down the road tho. But id start with them two

Silva short term but coutinho long term. Keep an eye on his price though. I personally think he could be a must have this season. I'm a united fan saying that

martin101 · 15-08-2013 11:37PM

Reasons why we should go with RVP. He is on all set pieces. Will always play when fit. And if in doubt we always go with him captain. But is he worth 14million? I'm thinking yes. He could really hurt you if you don't have him in your team this season.

Downgrade Ivanovic to Terry - Save 0.5

If you want to save another 0.5 downgrade Lescott to Toure

Manonne is second choice apparently.

Zaha is a huge rotation risk.. I see him coming on as a sub a lot this season

Will terry play both games though in the DGW? I'm not sure he will. You never know though. Thanks for the advise. Hadnt a clue about mannone, thought he was 1st choice.

Nice one

Danger781 · 15-08-2013 11:54PM

Thoughts? My attempt at having RVP.. Seems quite strong..

Only problem is the lack of DGW presence..

And I only needed to make 4 subs from my original team

furryhead · 15-08-2013 11:54PM

Thoughts please?about my tenth draft!!!!

Boruc
Toure
Mertesacker
Lescott
Bellamy
Silva
Hazard
Walcott
Van Persie
Anelka
Lukaku

Marshall
Coleman
Morrison
Turner

No Hazard is refreshing....it may be madness but it's refreshing :pac:

It's him or Walcott.. for DGW it makes sense to swap them

Dubstar07 · 16-08-2013 12:13AM

Just not convinced he's back to his best yet, a lot of pressure on city to get a result with new manager installed. Plus other comments I've read elsewhere

martin101 · 16-08-2013 12:17AM

Changed my team again. How's this looking? Defence isn't great I know

swoody · 16-08-2013 12:26AM
