Who could I bring in instead of him for a similar price to work with Marshall? Or is there a different cheap keeper partnership I could use?
Lemlin wrote: » It's not just the big sides signing players you need to worry about though. There can often be great value in say a player that has dropped in value making a sideways move e.g. Pienaar going from Spurs to Everton two years ago, Sturridge from Chelsea to Liverpool last year. Or players coming into mid table teams e.g. The effect Siggy, Cisse and Jelavic had two years ago. Coutinho last year. I'm already keeping an eye on Jelavic at Hull after that move last night.

Lemlin wrote: » I just posted this on another thread. I'll see who does well today and might ship Rooney out. I actually think I have enough in the bank to go Rooney to Aguero straight swap. This article looks hopeful re him: Pellegrini said: "Aguero continues working and maybe next week he can be fit".http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/sergio-aguero-nearing-return-from-injury-for-manchester-city-9051941.html And BBC ran one saying he was training four days ago. That means he was back training the 6th of January so he only missed about 3 weeks. He was injured 14th December. City have alot of fixture congestion now and will be eager to have him back on song for Barca. Re Spurs and Chelsea. He has scored against both already and is fixture proof IMO.

But with my midfield of Yaya-Ozil-Hazard-Lallana (got Hazard at £10.1m and Lallana this week) I don't have much flexibility to get Aguero back (I would have needed him to drop at least £0.3m more). So if his price shoots up I'll have to get him in or I just won't be able to. What kind of reassures me is a player of his quality can score against anyone.
roryc wrote: » I have the same 4 in midfield and have £3.4m behind for Kun. I agree about Aguero though, he can score against any team but is unlikely to score more than one at Spurs or Chelsea, which is why I plan on waiting until after these games. However, if he looks set to start against Cardiff where he could go nuts I'll have to consider getting him in... flexibility is the key! I'm hoping I can hold off on him until he has easier fixtures. Ideal scenario would be him coming back for Chelsea game, but this not being announced until late in the GW (preferably the morning of the match!)
iroced wrote: » With £3.4m can you get him in as a direct swap ? I have £3.9m in the bank for Aguero (gained an extra £1m by doing Terry-> Azpi) and can't do my original direct swap (Ade -> Aguero, previously Roo -> Ag) but have enough for Lukaku -> Aguero. With my recent moves the idela scenario for me would be him being 100% fit to face Cardiff and running riot against them. Though if he was to come back later than expected with maybe another price drop (let's dream) that'd suit me too.
