    This looks like a rough enough set of fixtures on paper with a lot of my players having tough fixtures and/or up against each other:

    Ozil, Ramsey v Boruc, Clyne, Ward-Prowse
    Coleman, Lukaku v Mignolet, Suarez
    Aguero v Dawson
    I also have Terry and Oscar away to West Ham, plus Brady and Chester home to Palace.

    Hoping that Brady and Chester are recovered in 2 weeks, decent chance that Chester comes straight back in if he is fit considering that they shipped 4 goals today.

    Possibly a boring Mignolet to Pantilimon transfer, but I'll wait and see what surprises the international break brings.

    2 free transfers and currently pretty happy with how my midfield and attack looks, particularly for GW 12. Mignolet is on the chopping block, most likely for Myhill who rotates quite well with Boruc. A tip for those in a similar position! ;)

    Sakho will also be going soon, and I'm currently considering getting Vlaar in, as Villas fixtures are good over the coming weeks and he's good value at 4.4m. Those 2 transfers would leave me with around 2.8m in the bank.

    You piqued my interest there, but you are wrong.

    Boruc: AAHHAHAAH
    Myhill: HAHHAHAAH

    Please note: The above is not me roaring and laughing like a maniac, H = Home and A = Away

    Best striker to have alongside Suarez and Aguero for 9m or so?
    Remy

    I think I'll do barkley to sessegnon. WBA have great fixtures the next 6.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,669 ✭✭✭skippy15


    Two free transfers,

    But looks like Hazard > Barkley, and Ivanovic > Vlaar can't see any faults?

    Also looking at taking a 4 point hit to do McGregor to either harper/ Pantilon. Can't see pants get too many games and would leave me with Boruc, whos fixture list has taken a nose dive!

    You sir have impeccable taste. Bringing him in could give me another week to wait on Walcott and decide on who my heavy hitting midfielders will be alongside.

    Not firing at the moment but I still think Lukaku is.

    Been questioning myself on that point , thinking maybe I should get onto Benteke instead before he rises again, but Lukaku's general play and workrate are still excellent and i think he will come good soon. Think I will hold on.

    I was aware of the pattern you so kindly posted. :)

    However, compare what their opponents are on each of those weeks and I'm pretty confident that EVERY week one of the two faces weak opposition. I think I recall seeing that neither play 2 top 6 teams in the same week throughout the whole season.

    Boruc: Arsenal.........Chelsea.... ASTON VILLA, MAN CITY..Newcastle, SPURS.., Cardiff,...Everton, ....CHELSEA....WEST BROM...Sunderland...Arsenal
    Myhill: ASTONVILLA...Newcastle..MAN CITY, ....NORWICH...Cardiff, .....HULL, ...Spurs....West Ham...NEWCASTLE..Southampton..EVERTON....Astonvilla

    Out of interest.....who would you recommend instead? (I'm likely to make my transfers tomorrow so if you sell me an idea, I might go with it!)

    Looking at the exact same problem myhill is a good shout, Pantimilon and Harper rotate well too for a few weeks but Myhill will work up until wildcard mmm. Toss up between harper/ Myhill for me

    Isn't McGregor returning soon? Assuming he is, I'd imagine it wouldn't be long before he's reinstated in the first team.

    Having taken another look I'm leaning towards keeping the faith with Mignolet. After Everton away they have Hull A, Norwich H, West Ham H, Spurs A, Cardiff H. Spurs and Everton haven't been free scoring by any means, and the other 4 fixtures are very favourable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    pretty sure barkley out will be my transfer, i didn't mind too much when he didn't start last week as i thought maybe he was due a rest, but not starting again yesterday combined with everton's next 4 fixtures, Liverpool (h), a nice one then at home to stoke before united and arsenal away.

    I would only play him in the stoke match and even then he might come on for a 1 pointer.

    not sure who to bring in, sessengnon is a good shout but i only have 6.1 to spend, i'd ideally like brady back, especially as next up is palace away, might just bring morrison back in either, he's started every game since i sold him 8 gw's ago and has scored a few too. with brady i'd have to wait for team news and probably lose money on brady, morrison i could pull the trigger on a lot sooner and just hope he doesn't get injured before then?

    I think I'll do barkley to sessegnon. WBA have great fixtures the next 6.

    Great busts, just great. Was thinking cabaye, but the more I look at sess the more I like it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    sturridge to who for 9m max?

    between benteke, lukaku, remy i'm thinking. benteke not playing great now but could still have notched a couple in recent games plus wba(a), sunderland(h), soton(a), fulham (a) in the next 4. Two tough away games there but chance to turn his form around i'd think. Lukaku's fixtures get really tough so i can see his price dropping a bit in coming weeks. Might go back for him in a month or so even though he's more than capable of scoring against the big sides. Decent fixtures for Remy after today. Lambert's suddenly get alot tougher.

    Not sure what to do?

    Right for those interested in my now scientifically proven kids TV omens. Just before posting the above pledge of allegance to Lukaku I sat down to watch a film with the kids, Ratatouille, in which the main character is called......REMY!!

    I think I'm actually gonna go with it this time.

    Also Lukaku has tough fixtures coming. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,256 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Will wait and see how today's games go. I'm not sure about Hazard after seeing the Chelsea game. They created little and looked poor in general.

    He got a jammy assist through Ridgewell's error and then a penalty that never should have been a penalty.

    Lallana and Sessegnon looked alot better than anyone from Chelsea. Countinho also looked decent enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,881 ✭✭✭bohsman


    Will be getting mirallas out, not sure who to get in, have hazard, ozil, januzay and Brady. Am another too stubborn to get Ramsey in as don't want to double up on arsenal midfield but looks the best option. Could downgrade to ravel till a better option comes along.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    Oscar out Hazard or Gerrard in.

    I know what you mean, even when they do play well everthing seems so 'spread out' amongst the players both fantasy points and stats. Chelsea mid + attack just seems so muddled to me( who are key players? Mata was clear last year), hard to know who to pick, and even more difficult to spot value for money.

    Snap. Probably Hazard.

    Sessegnon in, Barkley out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 581 ✭✭✭fran38


    Right...that's it. Soldado out tonight before he drops. Was gonna kick his ass out during the week but decided to give him a chance seeing as he was playing at home. Who to get in though? I have two transfers & will offload arnuatovic or brady as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    ****ing website is doing stupid things, grrr

    Want to transfer in Suarex and Ward-Prowse for Sturridge & Barkley for a 4 point hit


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,700 ✭✭✭Danger781


    Need to get a Michu replacement but have no idea who..

    Currently have

    Januzaj / Morrisson / Hazard / Michu / Ozil

    Need rid of Michu.. Ramsey? :confused:

    Hmm, or could do Lukaku to Remy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    Very close to pulling the trigger on a big play....3 transfers for a -4 hit.

    Sturridge -> Suarez
    Lukaku -> Rooney
    Ozil -> Ravel

    Would leave me with 0.9m in the bank, and the following squad.....

    Mignolet Boruc
    Terry Coleman Sakho Clyne Chester
    Yaya Ramsay Lallana Ravel Kasami
    Aguero Suarez Rooney


    Thoughts?

    I've sent Ozil play 3 weeks in a row now. He is no way worth the big money it costs . He is probably not even the best option in the arsenal team given their respective prices.
    Suarez is a must have


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,265 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    The Aguero, Suarez, Rooney frontline is starting to look very tempting.

    I'm also tempted to do a hit to get rid of Townsend, but it's a cup week in my league so prob not wise. Tempted though.
