Player Watchlist

Swiper the fox · 28-08-2013 01:05PM

Townsend and Barcley have both been called up for England, Townsend is in super form, no surprise really as he was brilliant for QPR last year, I'm starting to think there's a real chance of him becoming a regular at Spurs, I'd give him the nod over Lennon at the moment, wouldn't be surprised to see a new signing though.

What's the story on Fabio Quagliarella as a matter of interest? WOrth watching should he join a premier league outfit? Linked with West Ham, Southamptom, Sunderland and Norwich.

Personally think he'll end up with either the Hammers or Sunderland.

I'm not a big fan, but if he's cheap enough he could make a decent 3rd striker given the right team.

Stoke's new winger on the watchlist.

Assaidi (4.9m)

Anyone with pace that can cross a ball towards Peter Crouch and Walters is worth keeping an eye on.

Not going to be a short term accquisition, but potentially in 4/5 gameweeks he might be taking over from Brady as my budgie midfielder.

Spurs are likely to release Holtby and Sigurdsson on loan, if they stay in the premier league they will be good options under 7m, this is gonna be an interesting few days.

Siggy must wish he'd just gone with Benny Rodgers to Liverpool.

Both could be handy options indeed. I'm guessing Townsend will be staying now after playing well and getting called up for England? A pity as Lamela and Lennon will be ahead of him most likely.

Was listening to talksport just now and Brad Friedel was on, he was saying how Townend has been their best player so far this year, not far wrong from what I've seen, we've both been saying it but the guy can be a brilliant player in a real world and more importantly for us fantasy perspective, bit of the Gareth Bale about him:P. Talking as a Spurs fan I'd like to see him have a good run in the team,

Friedel also compared Soldado to a young Robbie Fowler, coming from someone who has trained with both that is high praise indeed, he hasn't set the world alight yet but has kept it ticking over with the penalties, I'll be keeping faith.

Paully D · 02-09-2013 11:19PM

Anyone you're looking at now that the window has closed?

Ozil at Arsenal and Lukaku at Everton jump out at me. I wouldn't be too pushed about the others. Perhaps Coentrao at Manchester United depending on price, position and first team opportunities.

Definitely Lukaku at Everton, currently priced at 7.4. Could be a real bargain. Will have to decide on Ozil based on price and then decide between him and Walcott.

Lemlin · 02-09-2013 11:47PM

I suspect United will play Fellaini as a defensive midfielder but, if they played him like Everton did last year, with him getting forward into the box as much as he could behind the striker, he could be a revelation.

Kozak to Villa, top scorer in Europa league last year, potential to take from Benteke's share of points.

If ozil is under ten.5 million then I'll be swapping him for Walcott, surely Walcott won't still be on set pieces

Whatever about Arsenal mids, Giroud is serious value now that they failed to bring in a striker.

The only backup they have is Bendtner!

Who_8_Paul? · 03-09-2013 07:50AM

Giroud could be the one to benefit most from all the creativity behing him now, Ozil, Cazorla and Walcott; I'm even toying with the idea of having Walcott or Ozil AND Giroud. Arsenals stock just went up big time

Balmed Out · 03-09-2013 08:26AM

How do ppl feel about Steven Ireland for 4.8 joining Mark Hughes again? I think he might be worth a punt.

Lukaku defo for me, but after Everton's game with Chelsea.I'm sure he cant/wont be allowed play again them.
Ozil also if not to pricy will replace Theo. Have 2 free transfers this week so works out well.

alchemist33 · 03-09-2013 09:57AM

If a bunch of people buy Ozil, will his price rise before GW 4? Or is there a moratorium on price rises for a new player?

Swiper the fox · 03-09-2013 10:31AM

I'd love to get Ozil but I think I'll keep onto Theo and two premium mids from one team seems a bit excessive at this stage. I think a player of Ozil's creativity will be brilliant for Theo, they could become a lethal combination, he's going to be a lot harder to handle with the quality of service he's likely to have with Ozil now as well as Santi.

You'd have to worry about Ramsey now though, he could really become a bit part player even in the form he's in, I think Arteta will have that 5th mid place and Flamini is next in line.

Confirmed Ozil 10millon....nice tasty price!

Brendan Filone · 03-09-2013 12:13PM

Full list of all new players added:

GKP Viviano,(ARS) 5.0, MID Özil (ARS) 10.0, FWD Kozák (AVL) 6.5, DEF Théophile (CAR) 4.5

MID Willian (CHE) 8.5, FWD Eto'o (CHE) 9.0, DEF Hunt (CRY) 4.0, DEF Mariappa (CRY) 4.0, MID Kebe (CRY) 5.0

MID McCarthy (EVE) 5.5, DEF Zverotić (FUL) 4.5, FWD Gedo (HUL) 4.5, DEF Sakho (LIV) 5.5, DEF Ilori (LIV), 5.0

MID Arnautovic (STK) 5.5, DEF Dossena (SUN) 5.0, FWD Alvaro (SWA) 5.5

MID Eriksen (TOT) 8.0, DEF Chiriches (TOT) 5.5, GKP Camp (WBA) 4.0, MID Amalfitano (WBA) 5.0

In addition to Ozil, Eriksen and Sakho look great value.

Danger781 · 03-09-2013 12:15PM

Eto'o for 9.0 could be an option.. Seems Mour doesn't like his current selection

Willian also another option.. possible Coutinho replacement?

PARlance · 03-09-2013 12:18PM

Quick Q: Are signings (from outside PL) price protected for there first GW?
e.g OZIL

Fowler87 · 03-09-2013 12:19PM

Arnautovic at 5.5m for Stoke is an interesing one considering he'll likely play as striker. The obvious Sakho (5.5m) and Ozil (10m) are great prices too..

Ye I was thinking that surely ozils price will rocket if he hits the ground running.

WoollyRedHat · 03-09-2013 12:54PM

What I want to know, and I don't know if you mean the same, apologies if you do ajcurry... is that Ozil and the likes, will their price be protected until the next Game week? If not, Ozil's price could very easily rise from here on in.. if it's the case, I'll be temporarily transferring in Ozil for Walcott, and then changing that again to Toure before the start of the next gw.

Also, is Sakho now a guaranteed starter? Looking at him and Toure atm... best way into that defence.

WoollyRedHat · 03-09-2013 12:59PM

Oh and Arnautovic is marked as a midfielder? Surely a mistake... otherwise could be good value for 5.5

Another one I'm keeping an eye on is James Mc Carthy.
