    Feel stupid for getting rid of Siggy but its the only way to work Sanchez into my team. taking comfort that he might be injured and his next three games are not too appealing anyways.
    Yellow flag is gone, agreed on the fixtures but I think he is a season keeper for me barring injury.

    Sakho will be out for 1-4 weeks after Saturday's game ! Max out for 2 games

    1 weeks is best case
    4 weeks is worst case
    #COYI #WHU

    @BenDinnery: Sakho is expected to be out for 'couple of weeks' Pascoe "He's progressing. Unfortunate - he came back & picked up a similar injury" #LFC

    He'll miss two games and then be back after the international break I'd expect.

    That's Mamadou Sakho on Liverpool ;)

    If you have a decent sub to come in, I'd leave it. Sakho will miss max 2 games it appears with the international break.

    Don't really have decent subs.

    Boyd, Or 3 defenders of Hutton, Duff, Wisdom & Wilson

    Play Boyd & 2 of?

    Thinking of bringing in either Sanchez or Hazard for sterling this week. Already have Costa and Fab so will probably go for Arsenal cover as I have none at present. downgrade to Walcott in a few weeks as soon as he starts a match .

    I need to dump my 2 Swansea defenders too but I can see many transfers for that price range that are good for the next 2 weeks. 5mil keeper and 4.6mil defender.

    Good week to take a points hit since it wont affect the monthly prize scores .

    It will affect November's score

    No it wont, from a monthly score point of view, you have pretty much got a wild card at the start of each month. Any points hits taking now will not come off either month.

    From the League Rules page

    Any transfer point deductions in the Gameweek before a phase starts won't be deducted from the phase score. For example, any transfers made in Gameweek 3 (preparing for Gameweek 4) won't be deducted from your September score

    Need help languishing around 500k overall even though I think my team looks reasonable.
    Any advice

    Gk Bekovic + Myhill
    Def Bertrand + Hutton + Moore + Duff + Van Aanholt
    Mid ADM + Fab + Sterling + King + Siggy
    FWD Aguero + Pelle + Costa

    Is a wildcard required or a couple of hits?


    Thanks


    Wildcard played

    Went with

    GK Lloris + Myhill
    Def Bertrand + Baines + Chambers + S Taylor + Moore
    Mid Sterling + ADM + Boyd + Siggy + Fan
    FWD Aguero + Pelle + Wellbeck

    Any ideas where I could make some money?

    Needed to do something my 8 year old son is 400k places ahead of me...☺☺☺☺


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    You could do Berahino over Welbeck. I'm not a fan of spending 5.6m on Lloris, but my goalkeepers haven't been doing much better (Mannone and Heaton)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    Chester to Cresswell done. Would like Sanchez but don't think he's worth 10.4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 415 ✭✭TaytoCrisps

    A lot of people don't know about that rule since they are usually more concerned about the overall score and the fact it isn't that noticeable when looking at the monthly league table . We only spotted it by accident 2 seasons ago when we noticed that points hits weren't coming off the score and emailed FF to see if it was a clitch

    It's very handy if you have monthly prizes and haven't much hope of winning your main league later in the season .

    Have you activated that wildcard?

    Seems like an awful waste. Your midfield is the same barring your non playing 5th.
    A -4 could have got you Costa -> Welbeck & Def -> Baines.
    The other changes are marginal imo.

    Fair point, activated already, still in 2 minds about sterling though and I was anxious to get chambers with arsenals fixtures.

    Still might go sterling to chadli and wellbeck to Rooney but probably quite risky? Need to make up some ground though!

    I actually thought it was "monthly" strictly speaking, e.g. if you do 2 transfers today (27th Oct) and one Saturday morning (1st Nov), the only transfer counted for the November monthly prize is the one made on the Saturday.

    Thanks for clarifying it then ;).

    I'm getting rid of Sterling based on Liverpools and the risk he might get rested . Saying that he could do well against Newcastle at the weekend . Chelsea the week after so happy enough to get rid of him for 2 weeks anyway. Plus he's dropping in value

    Is he expected to drop tonight or tomorrow?

    He has dropped once this week. At 60% on fpls so needs another 18k out according to that so should be safe for the rest of the week or at worst Friday night imo

    Duff
    > Baines
    Aguero ---> Welbeck

    Am I mad? Team below:

    Bekovic, Elliot
    Wisdom, Clyne, Hutton, Duff, Moore
    Di Maria, Sterling, Sigs, Cesc, King
    Ageuro, Costa, Pelle

    So Costa out for Welbeck? Thanks for wake up ya eejit reply :)

    I need to Arsenalize my team somewhat and get Baines\Coleman into the below :O

    Begovic, Elliot
    Wisdom, Clyne, Hutton, Duff, Moore
    Di Maria, Sterling, Sigs, Cesc, King
    Ageuro, Costa, Pelle

    I'd do Hutton and Costa -> Baines and Welbeck in your situation.

    Why would you sell Costa now that he's almost back? It's very likely he could play v QPR and rack up a huge score. If you want Baines/Coleman, I think the better option would be to downgrade Sterling and get the cash that way. In terms of Arsenal cover, waiting for Walcott might be the best option.

    Trying to get my head into the whole WC now with a cup of tea and a few things are becoming apparent:

    -I've got a Costa/Baines Mexican standoff. It seems like I can't really have both. Baines seems "essential" but he really is expensive. As for Costa I reckon it's not inconceivable that he could turn into last season's Yaya if his situation isn't sorted out.

    -A conundrum with ADM. Trying to fit himself, Sanchez and Hazard is proving impossible without a 4th mid who costs roughly about -3.5 :pac: Especially so when trying to fit Costa and Baines in. He plays City and Arsenal in the next 3 games but also Palace, Hull and Stoke at home in the next 5.

    -Cresswell is somebody I've been thinking about for about a month and talking about for a couple of weeks now. 2 assists in 2. I really want him but 5.4 for a WHam defender is a luxury that isn't possible when taking the above into account. It's probably either Baines or Cresswell who could be seen as a Baines lite.

    -Choosing a GK is tough

    If I'm going to WC I probably need to get the wheel in motion tonight or tomorrow at the very latest. I guess I can't have them all though.

    jukopovic seems like a good choice for backup keeper. 4.0 and getting game time since coming into the game. Has played the last couple of games for hull with a good return in his last game and the next few games aren't horrible

    Is Ivanovic going to miss any league games because of the red card?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,253 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting

    No, he will serve his suspension vs Shrewsbury in the League Cup.

    Was looking at him myself, couldn't find much concrete info but it seems there's a decent chance McGregor will be back after the international break, which would mean Jukopivic may only get 2 more games. A good option for someone like Mr P who's on a wildcard but probably not the most efficient use of a transfer for those of us who aren't.
