Want to get Silva in next week......
Have 1.2 in bank and switching toure to Chester this week makes it 2.2
Sessegnon is 6.6 leaving me 0.3 short at moment soooooooo with an eye on respective fixtures would downgrading Szecnzey to Krul for a hit make sense?????

4 point hit only.

Johnson to Olsson for cashola indeed

If it was me, I'd just play the two transfers and hold off on Mig to Howard.

For me, there are too many variables. For example, you are relying on Howard keeping a clean sheet and Mig not to justify the hit this week and break even.

If Mig even gets a save point and his 2 point appearance, he'll have three points and Howard may only get six so you're down a point.

I'm also considering that Howard going up or Mig going down means I can't afford the move next week either, and would likely be looking at points hits too.

I think Howard is worth 2 points more than Mig this week, and I think that the risk of not being able to move Mig to him after that (consider Everton's next 6) is worth covering too.

You might have an answer in an hour or so from the Champs League team news.

I can see your point then in fairness. If it's a long term move for the good of your team then I'd go with it.

I've has this thing in my head all week about Rooney >>>> Lukaku. Gives me a lot of options to upgrade MF. Only drawback is no Utd coverage.

Straight question boys, over the next 6 GW's who scores more, Rooney or Lukaku?? 3m price diff is substantial

Don't have (or want) either player but if I was you I'd go for Lukaku, he has some great fixtures coming up while Rooney's returns will be lessened by RVP's return and the fact that United are playing awful.

I'll tell you in 6 GWs :pac:

I've got the same issue but I'm looking more towards Mirallas, maybe. It's a transfer or two more than I want to make which probably involves 3 hits over the next 3 GWs as it is. Rooney's a nice differential now that he shed a few owners with the suspension. Lukaku scares me though, he'll get a hat-trick some week as a viable captaincy choice and kill a lot of my good work. I just have to hope he keeps quiet on a few other occasions.

I will probably leave it be for another week anyway. Everton's fixture's are obviously great so it will either be Miralles or Lukaku who will be added, I have Coleman already. Am the same regard taking a big hit but the team looks a lot stronger without Rooney in it!

Menas · 11-12-2013 08:17PM

I tied my self in knots this week. With Palace hitting some form, newcastle doing well, everton keeping cleansheets, liverpool and mig not, and rooney back I had too many targets.

So kept it simple with rosinger to chester. Just need to keep my cool until wildcard time. Don't currently see the point in taking a points hit as my team is more or less ok.

Is it too risky to bring in Silva for this weekend? He looked sharp last night, but may not play the full 90, or even 60 against Arsenal. If he plays he's as likely to return and anyone, but he could be a 1 point wonder....

I've thought about this again.....instead of taking a hit on a keeper I could downgrade Cabaye for a hit ? Its not something I really wanted to do but I think I'd rather Silva next week than cabaye ......

Mr.Prodston · 11-12-2013 11:19PM

So Oscar, Hazard or Silva for Gerrard. One of the first too and need to decide tonight with Gerrard falling. It's gonna be a late one methinks. Tempted with a Mata gamble but know it doesn't make sense, can somebody bluntly talk me out of it please?

If I didn't have hazard already id be tempted too. But it is a heck of a punt.

At the prices Id go with Oscar. I've had Hazard since 9.0 so Im happy enough but don't think I would be spending 9.6 now. Oscar has potential to rise as well. Just my thoughts

Ya don't know with Jose he might not even start Mata!

Yeah I know, it's utter madness on my behalf. I'll probably go with Oscar. I'd prefer to wait until friday but Gerrard dropping makes it complicated.

The story of the game I'm afraid. One thing I've learned is that taking un-due risks doesn't pay off in 90% of cases. Whether it be captain choice or player selection. Now Mata may get a flyer on Sat & people get him in but I would rather see it happen first! Granted all my calculated risks have worked so far this season, Hazard Aguero Suarez Sturridge while I had him all hit the ground running so if you do risk it all the best!

gerrard to Silva - done.

Please be good to me, I've had a brutal 2 weeks.

I'll probably go for Oscar as I may well be able to sneak Silva in the following week too.

Schurrle has been good lately too.

Well he scored 2 goals away to Stoke on a dark rainy day :pac:

Being injured and having played 166 minutes of EPL since the 6th of August is a step too far.

At least Mata has started the last 3 games, if not much else.

chelsea lost the last game. Mourinho will want a scapegoat it wouldnt surprise me if mata was that scapegoat. Matas a big risk Mr P based on whats happened with chelsea team selection to date.
