    Think i'm going to wait till Friday before making any changes, hopefully by then i'll know what the story is with Marc Wilson and Michael Duff, if one of them is fit to play then i'll just only use the 1 FT.

    I'm going without a keeper next week.
    I'm taking a hit for Aguero to Costa. I don't see the reward for a further hit for Fabianski to Pantillimon. If Pantillimon gets more than 4 points away to Burnley then so be it, but I'm going to gamble that he won't.

    Cue peno save, cleanie and 3 bonus for Pantillimon next week as he hoovers up about 967 points.

    That would be just dandy! :)

    Pleasantly surprised that Aguero hasn't dropped yet, was worried that there'd be a lot of people panicking and he'd drop before we got a diagnosis. Hopefully they'll tell us how long he's out for before he starts dropping.

    Fantasy football fix are predicting he'll go down tomorrow.

    I think I'm prepared to lose 0.1m on him (ie for him to drop by 0.2m) if it means having a better idea of how long he'll be out for. I have 2 injuries and 2 suspensions this week, so every transfer is valuable.

    I have fab in at 9.4 million, he's 9.8 now, will i still lose .1 or will he just drop down to 9.7 million?

    Seriously want to hold off till we get news on Aguero, plan is to ship him and cesc out for costa and yaya toure if kun is out for a while.

    Am thinking Chambers to Clincy, Fab to Hazard, and Aguero to Pelle/Bony, and will still leave me with 3 Suspended/Injured.

    Going to see how at least tomorrow plays out first.

    Edit.

    Just noticing may have to do the Fab/Hazard transfer tonight as well, one of them due to rise, and the other fall as per FFFix.

    looks like i may have to drop Aguero tonight, cant afford to do the Hazard/Fab transfer otherwise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,270 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Aguero to Costa done. May also bring in Dzeko or Lukaku for Berahino for a hit later in the week. Costa Roo Dzeko front 3 is appealing.

    Aguero >> costa
    Cesc>>> yaya, really dont feel safe without city cover, hopefully yaya can hit some form in kun's absence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,400 ✭✭✭TacT


    done deal now, settled on no Hazard to avoid a Chelsea triple up. Aguero>Costa and Fabregas>Mirallas.

    Guzan

    Taylor, Ivanovic, Hutton

    Downing, Sanchez, Toure, Mirallas

    Costa, Kane, Bony

    Bench -- Given, Chadli, Dummett and Moore.

    If like myself the first drop in Aguero's price doesn't cost you, and if FFFix are correct, then he doesn't drop till Monday night meaning it will be the eve of the Roma game and there will almost certainly be an update from City before the second price drop.

    Well, his first drop will cost me, I just think I'll take that hit...

    I don't think he will drop til Tuesday night

    I would have thought that by looking at the NTO's and his current positive position that it would be Tuesday too. However, the one thing about this new system is that a sudden surge of NTOs sometimes brings about an earlier drop than expected. It's the only scenario really when the prediction sites are caught on the hop. Maybe FFFix are building this into their predictions now.

    A big positive (and this may sound bad) is that the 35% of Aguero owners will be fairly active and seasoned players... I say this due to his high price and his injury at the start of the season, not many casuals have him, this is certainly evident in my private league. So there could be a chance that his NTOs aren't as fast & as panicked. It'd be great to have until Tuesday.

    Edit: he's just dipped into a negative, -5.7% to a drop on FPL Stats.

    I'd be strongly predicting Tuesday to be the case.

    Team could be in worse shape, if Duff recovered in time I could field a 4-5-1 that I'd be pretty happy with.

    That said, I'll be taking a -4 to get rid of Aguero & Chambers.

    Current team attached. Any opinions?
    Chambers -> Chelsea Def
    Aguero -> anyone from 5 or 6
    Fancy a little punt on Ivanovic, he seems to be getting very close to some nice attacking returns.

    Goalman(c) :eek:. I'd prefer Hazard to Oscar over the next month, but otherwise looks good. I can also afford Chambers to any Chelsea defender and still think I'll plump for Terry. I was surprised to see Terry hasn't been booked at all this year which could come in handy for tight BPS battles. He's also been looking very dangerous at corners and usually gets at least 3 goals a season.

    :) I just subbed him in for Aguero so the armband stayed on him automatically.

    Ya, it's a tough one with the Chelsea defenders, Terry has been looking like scoring. Dave & Cahill are solid. Ivan is probably better for attacking returns but may be the most likely to be rotated.

    The real decision this week will be who to replace Aguero with. I've a big short list for that spot.

    Oscar to Hazard in the next few weeks but I'm fairly happy with Oscar. He's probably more likely to be rotated over crimbo so will do it before then I think.

    Was originally thinking Ben Davies in for Chambers, but then I wisely reminded myself that Spurs still look crap in defense. And then I reminded myself that John O Shea is a Superstar. John O Shea it is then


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,839 ✭✭✭balkieb2002


    I managed to do well on GW15 despite 2 red cards though those cards have come back to bite me for GW16. Those 2 red cards plus Fabs suspension and Aguero injury has left me in trouble.

    Decided on swapping Aguero for Costa while having enough points to swap him back in case injury isn't as serious and his price goes down.

    Rest of team has now picked itself as I left the 3 suspended players on the bench so can either hope for no more injuries or take a 4 point hit for a better first-teamer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42 kolczastyy


    I did:
    Aguero to Bony
    Elmohamadi to..... Silva

    I care Yaya 4 yc and really worry about losing transfer if he gets fifth. High risk move cause he's penalties kicker and e.x. Leicester defence could give penalty for City and...Silva is after absence. I hope he's doing well this week and will start GM16. Probably not full time but he could add more in 60 minutes than Hull player in full time.

    I have barkley as well and tempted to Get him rid of but will play with QPR and hopefully he pull the trigger.

    I want Bony with Swansea's fixture. Have Austin as well and benched him. I wait for next West Ham game, maybe will buy Sakho for him if he starts.

    My options were kick out elmohamadi but no yaya or buy yaya but very cheap striker as well. Too much risk with got yaya for me.

    I have:
    Forster
    Baines, Hutton, Bertrand
    Hazard, Sanchez, Silva, Barkley, Downing,
    Bony, Costa

    Thoughts?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,337 ✭✭✭G1032


    Very worried about not having City cover now that Aguero is gone.

    I may have jumped the gun a bit with my Fab to Siggy move on Saturday night.

    It would be a crazy waste of a transfer and 4 points lost for no reason but I can still do Aguero -> Costa and Siggy/Downing -> Yaya. I don't really want to sell Downing though.

    If I did that and took a minus 8 I'd be left with:

    Fabianski (Hamer)
    Baines, Azpil, Hutton, Wisdom, Coloccini
    Sanchez, Hazard, Yaya, Siggy or Downing, Wanyama
    Costa, Austin, Bony

    Any thoughts on how I could get City cover in?

    Austin -> Dzeko??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,881 ✭✭✭bohsman


    Straight Aguero to Dzeko swap for me but I would prefer to wait till after the CL match. Leaves Chambers and Fabregas on the bench but I have a squad of 90 minute players which is paying off nicely now. Leaves 5.9m in the bank to upgrade somewhere next week.

    Its a tough one how to get City cover for this weekend for those of us who only had Aguero. Yaya could be great but given the yellow card situation pointed out above I don't see him as viable for xmas and also don't want to lose and of my current mids.

    Ita early days for Dzeko but if he looks sharp on Wednesday he could be worth doing. He certainly stepped up last year when Sergio was out.

    I may also chance no City attacker and go for Kompany. High chances of a cs and no way of knowing how City will respond attacking wise with no Aguero and Dzeko, Silva and Jov just back from injuries.

    It is tough alright but despite my run of red arrows until this week it could have been a whole lot worse for me since I didn't have Costa.

    I'll more than likely go for one more hide behind the couch week and leave City cover out until GW17.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,042 ✭✭✭zl1whqvjs75cdy


    Going with no city cover against Leicester next week. Think I'll just avoid the thread that day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Dubliner28


    What are people doing re Cesc.

    Tempted just to bench him this GW. Assist machine and dont really want to take him out.

    Might have to take a -4 hit.

    Sergio to Costa
    Chadli to 5.7 midfielder
