January wildcard

19-01-2014 03:05AM

When I sorted all players by "price rise (round)", everyone was at zero, so I just brought in Johnson, cabaye and wilshere. Here's hoping I get the benefit of their rises.

narfsnonsense · 19-01-2014 06:53AM

Wildcarding today.....any thoughts?

Szczesny, Mc Gregor

Sagna, Coleman, Shaw, Chester, Gabbidon

Sterling, Cabaye, Yaya Toure, Hazard, Whittingham

Suarez, Rodriguez, Aguero

May get Johnson in for Sterling for possible price rise, but whoever is there will lose their spot to Ramsey when hes fit.

When you have actual nightmares about Yaya Toure does it suggest some kind of problem?

Can I really not get him in on this wildcard......

I think it's about time the "Nah Nah to Yaya brigade" had its first open meeting to establish numbers. There's a void ever since the Anti-Ramsey Brigade disbanded and my quota of quality whiskey has not been met either :pac:

Yaya can take a hike. I'm not saying never but I'll only get him in if Silva gets injured or returns very little points.

Danger781 · 19-01-2014 01:39PM

Yaya has become too expensive.. Not unless I get a cheap third striker

Then get a cheap third striker I say!

Who's your 3rd striker currently and how has he been scoring v Yaya?

I've been chopping and changing.. At one point or another I've had Sturridge, Lukaku, Remy, Adebayor, Negredo, Dzeko, Podolski, Giroud..

All depends on what you're more comfortable with. Hazard, Yaya, Suarez and Aguero are the players I'm most afraid of not having. 4 highest scoring players in the game so far, and until they stop getting points I'll keep them in the team.

Im the same no plans to get him in. However with walcott now out for the season I will probably be leaving the anti ramsey brigade when he returns from injury.

Szczesny/lewis
Zabaleta/terry/mert/whittaker/r bennett
Ozil/yaya/eriksen/adam johnson/oviedo
Suarez/Sturridge/adebayor

What ye think of this before I press active?

finnharpsboy · 19-01-2014 04:16PM

i made a total b@lls of my WC, points hits need to be taken to get it back in order

14 goals on top of his assists,he's a must have.Juggle your team & spending to get him in.

Williamson has been hanging around over 90% to a rise for weeks. Zero chance he'll make 0.2 this week.

Doubt if any def other than Kolarov will do it. Some of the Arsenal lads might.

I've just seen that Kolarov is protected. I suppose that's the end of a price rise for him.

I don't know. But TotalFPL has him as protected

Now he's not protected. Must have been a glitch with the website I'd say

Some reassurance, but I am wobbling lads! Thanks to setminer I know that 72% of the top 50 in my pay league have Yaya, while only 14% of which I am one have Silva.

So does that make Yaya a must have as every time he scores he's killing me, or does it make Silva a great differential??

the incredible pudding · 19-01-2014 07:52PM

Go team Silva!!! (i've made my bed and will likely die in it)

Dempsey · 19-01-2014 07:57PM

Hazard, Yaya Toure & Suarez are must haves imo

Scorpion Sting · 19-01-2014 08:02PM

Put together this earlier.

Settled on most of those players with question marks over Wilshere, Baines, Januzaj and Rodriguez.

You set on having 8 strong attacking players?

7 and a cheap 8th that plays is enough IMO.
Upgrade Wilshere to Ramsey and then JRod down to Crouch or something like that would be my suggestion.

Danger781 · 19-01-2014 08:10PM

Cabaye looks possible to get a 0.2 price rise this week. Secoond highest NTI today. May dump Wilshere for him.. Hmm..

(Looking for price rises)

I obviously had doubts about going with Wilshere and Januzaj together in midfield. I think JRod is very good value atm. I will probably go for Ramsey alright and downgrade Januzaj to Mutch or someone. Cheers for the input.

FHFC · 19-01-2014 10:40PM

I think I'm going to Yaya it! Swallowed my pride with Coleman and it's been worth it. So much prefer silva as a player, but 72% ownership in my league is dangerous. I'm currently 6th and want to try to win it or top 3 for prizes at least.

The only damage it does to my team is I have to sacrifice Januzaj for a cheap 4th mid and go for rotation mids/ defs. Meaning I'll have a 333 of very strong players and pick 1 from the 4 spare mids/defs each week.

Feel free to talk me out of it.....

It'll make me sad.

There that's reason enough

Scorpion Sting · 19-01-2014 11:17PM

Do not give in to the Yaya temptation!

Nah but seriously he has been unreal this season, everything seems to be going right for him and in a free-scoring City attack he has licence to roam forward into the opposition's penalty area. To think I had him in my gameweek 4 wildcard team for price rises still gives me chills. If I'd kept him I'd be doing so much better right now.

Oh and he's also become a free-kick specialist.

Same as.

zarquon · 19-01-2014 11:20PM

Yaya is single handedly destroying me in my private league. I have no choice but to get him in on the WC and use differentials elsewhere.
