Gameweek 16 Transfers.

Have to look at replacing either Fonte or Vlaar as Chester isn't reliable to start.

I also hope Barkely picks up his 5th yellow this weekend, I have my eye on him for the first time this season really. It'd rest him and then make him more reliable while also potentially shedding owners and drop in price. Win-win but needs to happen soon

I got hazard to replace Michu, when Oscar was flavour of the month of the Chelsea mids, but my gut was to go for hazard. Next day he missed training and was dropped for the European game and I had my head in my hands, but he's out gunned Oscar since.

Mata could do the same, if he looks like hitting a run I'll prob swap hazard for him, but too early just yet to gamble on him for me.

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.

Yeah I've seen sense, it's a crazy notion and I'm going to go for Oscar, the unexciting option but most sensible.

Gerrard > Silva done. Mirallas came close but silva gets the prize.

After a hit that leaves me with this for the weekend. Tempted to do -8 to get Ben Turner in for Merts for vastly better chance of my CS than Dawson. But that will await the FFS cup draw for sure.

Goodnight!

Mr.Prodston

I'm half inclined to lose my .1 made on Gerrard to wait until Friday as I can't shake the nagging feeling that Chelsea may be quiet against Palace, and after that their run isn't great with home fixtures the only feather in their cap. Silva teases me and with Ramsey rested for the weekend it's got to be on or t'other as if I sold him this week at a hit I just know what will happen

Impatient people who don't act economically rational annoy me. If everyone waited until Friday to sell Gerrard we'd all be better off. :mad:

Did Gerrard -> Oscar last night. Not entirely happy with that but I suspect I wouldn't have been with whoever I picked.

I'm in the same boat with Gerrard.

Can't decide between Silva and Hazard. The only decision I've made is that I'd prefer Hazard as my Chelsea option; but getting Oscar instead means I could potentially do Silva in two GWs or so.

Having looked at it again I'm very, VERY tempted to do the following:

Dawson > Olsson (Nor)
Gerrard > Oscar
Brady > Silva

Is that worth an -8 hit?

yeah, i'd to that in a heartbeat.

Alfred Borden

Krul Harper
Kos Coleman Terry Zab Chester
Hazard Ramsey Yaya Morrison Bannan
Lukaku Suarez Aguero

Anyone have an idea what transfer to make? might just leave it until next week or maybe Mata.

Brady isn't guaranteed to start, Gerrard's injured and Dawson is against Suarez.

it's as safe an 8pt hit as you can hope for.

John83

Right, 8pt hit is a go!

Was just hesitant as it's my largest hit this season.

I personally wouldn't rush Dawson out just yet if I had him, and I wouldn't be in any great hurry to bring Silva in, good chance Silva will start on the bench this week and Dawson has good fixtures and little competition for his place after this weekend.

Contemplating some surgery

Mig -> Howard (great fixtures for Howard)
Johnson -> Olsson (Norwich)
Gerrard -> Hazard

hmmm

Surgery complete, hopefully deemed a success by Stephen's Day.

Dawson has been very close to leaving my team for the last few weeks but Ive looked at the fixtures and injury situation and reckon he is as good a bet as anyone to keep clean sheets between now and the jan wildcard so will hold onto him till then. Hopefully he doesn't get that 5th yellow card.

Same as that.
I'm still debating whether szecnzey to Krul or cabaye to someone like Fer or Barkley is the way to go to get silva in. It will require a hit this week with sess moving to silva next week then.
I don't really want rid of cabaye to be honest but a hit on a goalie .........

West Brom, Stoke and Palace at home in the next six gameweeks, Dawson seems safe enough in light of the injuries Spurs have so If I had him(I obviously don't:pac:) I'd be loathe to transfer him out for almost anyone at the moment and be confident that it would be a successful move.

dahat

4PT hit leaves me lining out like this..

Remy +Chico out-- Disitn + Lukaku in.

8-10

This.

John83

GAH! All this talk of Dawson has stopped me pulling the trigger. Maybe I need to look more closely at long term changes.

2.8 in the bank.

Gerrard > Oscar is a cert because it leaves cash for Brady > Silva.

I've missed the boat on Howard as I can't afford him now. So I had planned to swap of Koscielny to an Everton defender (Jagielka/Distin) and bring in Szczesny (once Arsenal get past the City and Chelsea fixtures); thus covering both defenses.

So if the general consensus is to hold Dawson, then Koscielny is the next choice to dump. I wasn't planning on playing him anyway this weekend.

This.

I've been convinced to keep him. To be fair, he is the cheapest 'guaranteed' starter in the Spurs backline and I would put money on them being near the top CS score come the end of the season.

Hmmm...have you reconsidered your thoughts that Dawson might lose his place?

Swiper the fox

John83, you do seem to have a defensive problem with regards to this weekend, after that things don't look so bad, the hit to take Dawson or Koscielny out might not work out in the long run but it will fill a gap in your team this week and might bring in funds for something else. Who knows? The Silva thing is similar in a way, he might be on the bench this weekend and even if he starts it's a very difficult game for him, even if Brady doesn't play the rest of your midfield all have attractive fixtures once you have Gerrard replaced.

I think he will eventually too but at this stage of the season its surely a case of deal with that bridge when we reach it.

There was always an assumption that he would have competition for his place at some stage, for this weekend Capoue is likely to play alongside him again, Kaboul will probably never get a run of games without injury. Dawson is a disaster but there is no option right now. With Chiriches, Vert and Kaboul all fit I still think Dawson should and probably would be fourth choice but when will we see that? He's safe until the new year and has good home fixtures.

And to add to decisions, Dawson is 3% from a drop in price (on FPL). If that happens I'll lose .1 on him.

Instead of using the -8 hit to bring in Silva, I could use it to sort out my defense. Koscielny and Dawson > Distin and Olsson. Meaning I could play 4 at the back this weekend and still have a decent-ish midfield. Then next week bring in Silva (and possibly Szczesny depending on price rises).

Nasri likely to start vs Arsenal

I'm trying to clean up my bench so has anyone on any thoughts on who to bring in for Kasami?
I have 4.8 to play with.

Thinking about maybe Redmond....

Fulham were decent against Villa, Kasami playing for an in form team might be useful, if it's just to tidy up the bench, I'd bank the FT.
