    Ok grand, but that is pretty unlikely IMO. Once the Sunderland match is over, Arsenal away will slow down his interest

    Had all three risers, glad Ighalo went up before Wilson as predicted.
    Fletcher is some legend. Holds out on his drop until right after I've activated WC and gets me 3 points the three times I need him off bench (even giving my heart a flutter when I saw his shot on MOTD)

    When I switch to a cheapie it will be him
    He was very good Saturday

    I don't mind him falling. I think he'll just be sitting in my team for the season anyway.

    Martial 45% now, should get another rise tonight without too many wasted transfers.

    He should be £8.4m by Sunday though if he continues rising at this rate.

    Same for me with Wanyama. I'm more annoyed at the £0.3m I lost on Coates & Huth.

    The only thing though this year is the 2-5-3 chip which implies that at some point we may "have to" get rid of our cheap 5th mid.

    I'll be waiting for the end of the season for that I think. The cheaper players tend to come to the fore in relegation battles, although they are doing pretty well at the minute.

    Not if he scores. People will ignore the next fixture just like they did with Gomez and others before

    Yeah my idea too. There's also the added team value argument (that could potentially help) FHFC pointed out weeks ago.

    But, I was also thinking that when I play my WC, I could, if fixtures are favourable and players are on form, I could build a short-term front 8 for the following GW.

    I can't believe I'm actually sitting out this Martial feeding frenzy given my well established team value obsession. :eek:

    I may as well take this opportunity to formally put on record proof that I don't let that obsession dictate all my early season moves!! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Pink Lemons


    I'm no good at judging price rises, but I'd say Martial will cost about 17 million by the end of the week :p

    If he proves to be the real deal, it's not as if he's 11m and will require hits. 8.5m for a nailed ManU striker in form is still a great price

    I'm not even convinced he's garaunteed to start v sunderland. Also, almost always when somebody is expected to get a thumping it ends up as an anticlimax. E.g. United v newcastle.

    O Shea looks likely to be back for Sunderland. United have scored goals against teams that went toe to toe with them but struggled against teams who have packed defence.

    I actually agree, except sunderland are pretty poor and not all expected thumpings are anti climax, some are thumpings. Also away to Arsenal is perfect for his counter attacking strengths. I've transferred him in for Benteke, the 'pool just arent fluid at the minute, either not feeding Tekers or he doesnt fit. The rate people are bringing Martial in means even if he blanks, it wont be damaging, bit like Kolorov getting zero, everyone has him pretty much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,256 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    For people like myself with a wildcard, Martial has to be worth it given there's a killing to make on price rises. I could wildcard in two weeks and easily have an extra 0.3 to spend if he rises 0.3 both weeks - which he could do if he scores again this weekend.

    United will win the game, but I'd be very surprised if it's a rout. 1 or 2-0 seems about right. As a non-Martial owner and no real interest for the next month considering their upcoming fixtures, I'm just hoping he doesn't have involvement in the 1 or 2 goals United seem likely to score.

    Absolutely. If i was intending on wildcarding in the next couple of weeks I'd be all over it.

    As it is I'm exercising restraint for once.

    Done the same here as the first of two transfers this week, price-wise Benteke could drop 2 and Martial up 3 (although I missed the first). Also with Sturridge back, Ings scoring and Benteke taking a knock they won't risk him. Don't think Martial can keep up this form but a couple of goals over the next few weeks would be lovely.

    Wanyama is still dropping away, I'd have thought he was relatively safe on 4.4.

    Just wondering if more people are playing a balanced 5 man midfield and this is contributing to the price drop, any thoughts ?

    Wanyama was dangerous due to his high initial ownership and then all the budget midfield options that started performing (Mahrez chief among them) will have led to the exodus.

    My thoughts exactly I'd have no hesitation getting a player like that in even if he goes as high as 9 million.

    That's useful for people with a good start, but I'm languishing above 1m OR so can't just be happy to take blanks on high ownership players

    You also can't afford to not be at the party when a high ownership player scores well. It's a horrible situation to be in.

    (I'm in the same depressing club as you by the way).

    Yeah, it's a double edged sword. I'm still hopeful of turning it around for a top 10k finish. At the worst, I'm thankful to have money leagues of varying ability and size that will keep me focused even if I'm 1m in GW30


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


    Wilson going up tonight and Aguero falling at 0.4%/hour. I've taken a chance and swapped out Kun who I bought at 13.1m for Wilson. If Aguero somehow falls by the end of the GW then grand, otherwise I save at least 0.1m on Wilson and increase my resale value on Aguero to 13.2m

    The price you get for aguero will be the same if he is 13.1 or 13.2, I doubt he will drop this week also

    As a matter of interest, if you had purchased Aguerro at 13.0 would you have made the same move ?
