Getting rid of Sturridge for him is insane!!

Sturridge got a hat trick against Fulham last fixture. Could be a good captains pick.

the incredible pudding · 11-02-2014 02:40PM

Sturridge is in around the top 5 for goals per game in europe. You'd be nuts to get rid of him!
Regardless of whether you have Suarez or not i think he's a must-have.

edit: just noticed you say you'd be getting him in. That's the right idea.

I'm going the other way mate. I'm thinking of bringing Sturridge IN. I brought Giroud in two weeks ago and left him in my team. I planned on dumping him, but thought he might be worth a punt against a leaky United defence.

Sturridge all the way

Who to bench - Mertesacker or Collins (WHU)?

Probably Mert, you must have a really good defence this week to be considering benching either this week though.

My provisional team for the week

4.1 to spend on a defender, any ideas?

James Collins? West Ham have a couple of home games and have been doing well defensively.

With Winston Reid back fit, Collins is not guaranteed to start! We'll find out tonight before the deadline. I'll be bringing in a West Ham defender myself. Reid or Tomkins. I'd think Collins is the most likely to be dropped for Reid.

As I said all will be revealed later on, about 6:45

FWIW, I had Collins earlier in the season and he lost his place before injuries allowed him win it back.

MR NINE · 11-02-2014 04:14PM

Im ditching ozil and i can bring in any midfielder in the game, my current midfield is hazard lallana assaidi mata. Who should i buy? Ive been thinking yaya nolan or mirallas, and ive narrowed it down to yaya or nolan now, just curious if people have any other suggestions?

roryc · 11-02-2014 04:17PM

Silva

Dice75 · 11-02-2014 04:21PM

Stuck for money & no Hazard

Ozil/Suarez or Hazard/Sturridge?

Charlie Adam. I've been watching him purely because he plays in GW29.

He was the Adam Lallana of FF when at Blackpool a few years back. Used to even get 2 or 3 bonus when Blackpool would lose.

He now takes the set pieces for Stoke who have a number of good players in the air, including Crouch who has now scored the third most headed goals in PL history with 42. One person ahead of him is Shearer on 46. Can't remember who the other is.

If he even got near that form from seasons back, he'd be worth a punt for a few weeks.

Hazard, Sturridge and Suarez. There must be money you can free up somewhere. Those three are pretty much essential. What's your team?

Gerrard.

His points total is deceptive because he missed a handful of games with injury and he scored poorly in the first 5 games when Suarez was not available. But since Suarez has been back, he has got something (goal, assist or bonus) in every game bar 2 I think. He mightn’t get into double figures too often but he’ll consistently get you 7/8 pointers. A must have IMHO.

Silva

Do you think hes a better choice than yaya? I agree that Silva should make more sense in theory, hes a far more attack minded player, and most of citys attacks usually go through him, but he doesnt really rack up the points ff wise. Hes not much of a goal scorer.

Ive always been firmly against the idea of getting yaya into my ff team, it doesnt make sense that a centre mid should score so well in a team that plays two up front with two wingers. However its hard to ignore yayas returns this season, and the fact hes on frees and penos makes him even more appealing. I heard he was playing a deeper role against norwich? Thats definitely giving me doubts.

Im also concerned about citys possible double blank, hence why nolan seems more appealing, or mirallas.

Iused2likebusts · 11-02-2014 04:30PM

Have 2 ft's will probably just do evans to baines. Im tempted to do bardsley to either demel or pieters aswell but think it could be better to carry the 2 FT's until we know more info about gw 29.

Not normally a fan of 2 attackers from same team TBH

Mannone Speroni
Evans Chico Shaw Ward S.Taylor
Ozil Mata Lallana Erikson Noone
Suarez Negredo Benteke

Bleating Lamb · 11-02-2014 04:46PM

Right lads,have 2 FTs, have made up about 300k places in last month so on a good run,current squad

Mannone Mc Gregor
Coleman Sagna Ward,Cahill,Clyne
Hazard Sterling Silva Lallana Zaha
J Rod Dzeko Suarez

Basically wondering should I go Dzeko to Sturridge for few weeks?Silva not performing but would people hold onto 2nd transfer to cope with GW 28
Really appreciate any views.
Ps....what clubs look like having no games that week?

IsMiseMyself · 11-02-2014 05:03PM

Still mulling over Sterling. Someone choose for me! I want to play him but who gets benched for him? Gah.

bezuaua · 11-02-2014 05:16PM

Is it too risky to double up on west ham??

Already have Adrian and with chambers/ryan bennett out of combat I need a cheap defender: James Collins

West Ham kept 3 straight clean sheets: Chelsea (A); Swansea (H) and Aston Villa (A).

Their next fixtures look decent: Norwich (H); Southampton (H); Everton (A); Hull (H); Stoke (A)

At 4.1 it isn't even that much of a risk, worth a go.

I've had both Yaya and Silva in recent times, always managing to pick the one that didn't score... I brought Yaya in last week mostly because Aguero got injured so hes back on set pieces, mainly pens. This shifts him above Silva, but he is definitely playing a much deeper role than I've seen all season. He might be shaking off a knock, but more than this I think it's the fact that City haven't been scoring. It's usually 2 or 3 goals in that Yaya wanders up to a CF position.

MR NINE · 11-02-2014 05:33PM

I think ill go with nolan, the fact he plays in gw28 is a big plus, and itll give me a nice bit of money in the bank in preparation for the mayhem thats coming.

John83 · 11-02-2014 05:44PM

Mata & Oscar OUT ... Hazard & Nolan IN.

Is it worth the -4 hit?

Fant11 · 11-02-2014 05:52PM

Thinking of Mata out for Lallana. Thoughts? Two tough away fixtures and a blank on way. Lallana or Mirallas?

If I didn't have Yaya, I wouldn't bring him in now. My own opinion is that Fernandinho being out is effecting how often he can get forward. He needs to cover more because they don't have the same stability with Fernandino missing.

Liverpool have scored more goals from set pieces this season than any other team. 21 goals I think it stands at now and guess who takes the majority of them.....
