I'm deliberating whether or not to swap Adebayor for Bony. I know Ade has been in great form and has a knack for scoring against former clubs, but on the other hand Bony is surely a cert to score at home vs Fulham having scored six in his last five?

Also I'm wondering will Cabaye start this week having maybe had his head turned by PSG? Hard to know I suppose.

Moving to Bony smacks of short term-ism.

Adebayor a guaranteed starter too and has better players around him and a better supply line than Bony

Agreed. Swansea have 10 points at home this season and Fulham have 9 points away from home, the 9 away is contextually more impressive for me..... I dont doubt the ability of Bony to score but who knows what will happen between them, both clubs are in a mess.

I also expect Laudrup to walk before the end of the season.

#afc Wenger says Wilshere a doubt for Southampton with ankle problem. Arteta, Ramsey, Vermaelen all back

The Wild Bunch · 27-01-2014 10:44AM

Any word on Coleman being fit?

True that Swansea are not hitting the heights they were.....but they have had a tough series of fixtures batched together. Their last 6 games for example were Everton (home), Chelsea (away), Villa (away), Man City (home), Man Utd (away), Spurs (home). On top of that, their best player has missed half the season.

Their next 6 games are very different. I wouldn't be surprised if they are back inside the top 10 by the beginning of March.

Just released that he will miss the Liverpool game, Distin doubtful.

Looks like he is out:)

Hackers · 27-01-2014 02:15PM

I bought Coleman at 5.0, his current value is 6.8 and value in my team is therefore 5.9. When his price falls tonight to 6.7 will I still have him at 5.9 or will be drop to 5.8?

Lucas Hood · 27-01-2014 02:16PM

Your selling price will fall to 5.8.

Bony likes to score at home,that's my reasoning behind getting him in.Kept a few quid to upgrade him when needed.

Yes! Makes my cup game slightly easier as my opponent will have to start B Turner away to United or take a -4

Does it change though if he gets red flagged as a result of the news? Meaning is there a chance he won't drop?

Hackers · 27-01-2014 02:58PM

i think you are right there, not changed to red yet though so will need to keep an eye on it for the rest of the day. Currently on wildcard and considering getting rid of him (Coleman). Would prefer to not have to make the call until tomorrow!

"David Moyes has confirmed that Rooney, van Persie and Fellaini all trained today ahead of the the Cardiff match." according to the Twitter machine....

Yeah went with Bony too as I think he can outscore Adebayor in the next 3/4 gameweeks.

Plus I hate Adebayor, couldnt get him in.

Throw Mata into the mix as well and thats a hell of a team :eek:

Since I can't see Moyes abandoning his wingers.. It'll be something like this in my opinion..

                                   RVP
                            Mata       Rooney

              Januzaj                                 Valencia

                                   Fellaini

              Evra       Evans       Jones       Rafael

I reckon Rooney will play a deeper free role, similar to what he's been doing all season. Controlling play from the center of the park. If Moyes drops his winger strategy, I'll be a happy man. I don't see it happening though.

Rosco79 · 27-01-2014 03:41PM

Anyone give Spurs a hope Wednesday night? Bookies have them at 27/10 which looks a serious price for a home team chasing a CL place....

Cant see Valencia making that team, Fellaini will never protect the back line on his own...

If Moyes goes with that team, I'll be delighted I don't have any Man U defenders

Fellaini protecting the back 4...think Stevie G vs Villa, only worse.

Danger781 · 27-01-2014 04:28PM

Not saying it's ideal, just what I reckon may happen

Valencia has played almost every game so far.

Bye bye Seamie, I was going to get rid of you before your injury but at least I can feel better about it for a gameweek or two... you've been a good servant lad... See you next year

IsMiseMyself · 27-01-2014 04:47PM

Depending on how Mata gets on this week will determine whether I keep Coleman or not.

The Wild Bunch · 27-01-2014 04:54PM

Worth doing Giroud to Rooney?

Christ, just realized that if I sold Coleman, could covert Cabeye to Mata..........

Just what I was wondering. With Colemans ownership its risky have no Everton defensive cover, hence I'm going with Distin after the next few games again. Before they play Palace certainly.
