Clyne -> Baines Sterling -> Tadic Ideally I'd not bring Tadic in but this will give me Southampton cover which seemingly everyone but me will have and I'll avoid taking a hit. I'll keep Welbeck and have 0.3 itb. Next week if there are no injuries etc I can do Fabianski to Forster if I want Southampton defensive cover back again. Any opinions on this?

Pelle is certainly the more natural finisher which is why I went with him. I always go with form over fixtures. Plenty of mid priced strikers have shown that they can score against the top teams in the past e.g. Ba at Newcastle, Bent at Charlton (when he was good), Yakubu at Blackburn. I certainly won't be transferring Pelle out on current form just because he plays a few of the better teams. It's not like any of the top four have looked good at the back - If Frazier Campbell can score against Chelsea, Pelle can!

Lemlin wrote: » My team: Forster, Elliott PVA, Taylor, Duff, Moore, Wisdom Sterling, Fabregas, Siggy, Di Maria, Marney. Costa, Aguero, Pelle. 2 mil banked. To get Baines in, I need to downgrade a mid, most likely Sterling. The question is should I go for Eriksen or Chadli? I haven't seen much of Spurs and, while Chadli has been scoring well, Eriksen is the better player and the one I'd expect to kick on more. Opinions?

Swiper the fox wrote: » I only read the first post in this thread so far, does it get better??:D Dummett the legend is sitting on my bench ready to come in with his 8 points. Tadic is impossible to ignore now at under 8m, he's top of my wishlist, I will stick with Wellbeck over Pelle for the meantime, I made my bed in that regard with a robust debate with Lemlin last week:o Did somebody mention that Tadic is Saints first choice penalty man?
G1032 wrote: » Ya. I meant after those 4 fixtures. I don't think I'd hold on to either Pelle or Tadic after those 4 games which is why I'm still debating whether to ship Welbeck for Pelle or not

G1032 wrote: » So looks like the whole forum is going for Tadic. I want Baines and that puts Tadic out of my range but I don't think I'd go for him anyway. Southamptons fixtures get very tough very soon and Tadic in would only be a short term money making exercise. Seriously considering going without any Southampton attacking cover. Sounds like pure madness considering everyone in here seems to have one or two Southampton attackers. Am I going to leave my FF success in the hands of Welbeck?!
