what the view on costa keep him or trade out now. is he out for long

It's hard to know. I'm still considering either a -4 to sell him for Aguero or do the WC tonight. I have a few guys going down in price (even though it's hard to predict who is moving when) and I don't want to lose value. If they went down tonight and Costa didn't play it'd be a disaster of a weekend FF wise.

I also think it was a terribel decision on my part ( and a lot on here ) to go with Bojan or Fletcher. I went with Fletcher and thats 5.5m tied up for what?? A [EMAIL="j@ckass"]j@ckass[/EMAIL] that I have to play every week and has about as much chance of a high points return as I have of playing in the premier league.

In saying that I could just give him another week, take a chance on Costa playing and save the WC. Just don't know.

TBH I'm also not sure about Costa long term. He got a goal in each game so far but no bonus points...... For a 10.5m striker I want bonus as well as goals.

Who's the best 4.5 mid lads? I see King off Leicester is getting plenty of attention but I'm told by a Leicester supporter here in work that there are rumours of him being sold.

He's being played due to injuries to other players apparently and wasn't always a regular starter last year.

Wikipedia would also appear to support this:

I have Wanyama (sp?) off Southampton in there at the minute. I just want someone who plays every week.

I've stuck with Allbrighton. Came back from injury as a sub against Chelsea. Was not played in Carling Cup. Ita between him, Mahrez and Knockaert for the wide roles and i think he has a good chance of getting a regular spot. Value is holding up well. TotalFPL have him starting line up. Will be telling to see how he features this week.

Don't you have a Leicester contact in work you could ask about his prospects?

Great front 7. How uncomfortable are you about no Liverpool attacker? I suppose Sturridge will come in for RVP if required.

SlickRic · 29-08-2014 12:35PM

tempted to WC, but I really don't think I need to.

I've 2 free transfers, and I've already done DDG

> Krul. so I've one potential transfer yet. If i don't use it, I'll have 2 next week again.

Krul

Debuchy

Terry

Taylor
Siggy

Lamela

Cesc

Ramsey

Sterling

Rooney

Dzeko

Subs: Gilks, Naismith, Bardsley, Moore

I'll sort my sub keeper out next week I'd say.

I'd like Aguero in my team and/or Silva. they're both going up in price tonight. I'm also concerned that Dzeko won't start. instinct tells me I should stick with Dzeko and make a decision after the international break on where to go with my City attackers.

Costa is someone I'll be getting in, but I want Utd coverage for the next couple of GWs. Mata and Costa for Cesc and Rooney might be an option? the problem is, Cesc is gold. I could do Mata/Costa for Sterling/Rooney for a 4 point hit? I don't think that's needed though at this point.

i could also just do my WC and get everything in shape, but with nothing hugely wrong with the team before the international break, logic tells me that it's a very risky call.

rossit · 29-08-2014 12:43PM

is naismith going to keep mounting up the points thinking of putting him i for long

She's in London today. I asked her earlier in the week and she reckons he'll start.

That said, she said Mahrez would be the pick of the wingers in her opinion. FFS have him and Knockaert starting in their line-up.

I like it but as I'd go with Sterling over Silva.

I'm looking at getting rid of Isgrove as he has done nothing, anybody think Brady will play tomorrow? He scored 2 goals last night

Not sure if this is tongue in cheek!? Firstly, Costa got 1 BP in the first match. His harsh yellow card not only cost him BPS points, but also possible extra assist points from a scored penalty. He got extremely unlucky. Even if the penalty had been missed he would have minimum tied Ivanovic for 2 BP's, bringing him up to a minimum of 8 points for the game. As for Gameweek 2, he was next in line for BP's. Chelsea kept a clean sheet and Ivanovic scored so they hogged the BPS points. All you want from strikers are goals, its very much out of their control whether they get BP's or not.

Again, not sure if the comment was a joke... its such a bizarre observation to make! Costa will remain in my team as long as he is fit.

Backstreet Moyes · 29-08-2014 01:24PM

Lads anybody know what the story is with Costa and how long he is out for. Won't be around for the day and toying over whether to take a 4 point hit and get in Jovetic and captain him against Stoke.

The Wild Bunch · 29-08-2014 01:25PM

So is Costa passed fit?

Yeah Isgrove never had a chance. I'll still have my eye on him this season

You're the third or fourth person to ask this, and the forum has been nothing but talk of Costa for the past three days. Not having a go at you personally, but people should at least read the posts before firing questions out.

To answer your question- Costa is either out for 6 weeks or nailed on to start against Everton.

Do you think Brady would be worth looking at a replacement? He hasn't really featured yet this season in the league but is scoring in the European competition

Speaking of reading posts, Costa is confirmed as fit. He is not out for 6 weeks!

Seriously how hard is it for people to read the threads here or just check official twitter news!

Where's this been confirmed?

GiftofGab · 29-08-2014 01:39PM

Lads I need a defender for 5.5mil or less. Any ideas?

I already have louvren, debuchy bruce and wisdom.

Chelsea TV confirmed it, as has Del Bosque who has called him up for the internationals. Press conference later today will also confirm this no doubt.

Mourinho on Costa "We are trying everything for him to play tomorrow. He didn't train for the last 2 days. Today is the last day" #CFC

Don't think it's as clear cut as you think.

I doubt he would play a full 90 anyways. Probably will be brought on if he is playing at all.

With Everton and City away in the next three I may avoid Costa for a few weeks, you can take most of what Jose says with a pinch of salt but if Costa hasn't trained it's likely he'll be on the bench in case of emergency IMO.

zarquon · 29-08-2014 02:18PM

So costa is fit but hasn't trained. That is to be expected. Will play him any as i was not expecting big returns against Everton. Will be fine for GW 4 so no need to waste a transfer.

Aguero i am really worried about. If he starts, he could tear up stoke, but the question is will he start!!!!

Menas · 29-08-2014 02:25PM

Mourinho says that if fit Costa could be on the bench.

we are just asking there are alot of guys around here with lots of info.thanks to all for your help and if anyone can figure if costa is playing let us know .:)

G1032 · 29-08-2014 02:29PM

Really tempted to wildcard.

Any thoughts on this

Defense is atrocious but it's a nice looking attack. It leaves me with nothing in the bank. It leaves me with just one Chelsea player. I have two Newcastle defenders. But otherwise I'd be happy with it.
If I don't do this I'll probably lose 0.2 tonight when Begovic and Isgrove drop.

Any thoughts?

Ziegler1988 · 29-08-2014 02:58PM

I'm still going to start Costa and if he gets a 1 pointer from the bench then so be it. Naismith first sub to come in if he doesn't play at all. I still have 1 FT but would rather have two to play with over the international break than transfer Costa out for Jovetic or Adebayor. My only worry would be Costa plummeting in value over the two week break.
