I'm not gonna try to get in ahead of it as their form is so bad, but once they look like they are clicking going forward and with the fixtures they have I'd like to be ready. Costa would be a viable option but not ahead of Aguero, Kane, Lukaku, Giroud, Vardy, Ighalo etc. If I downgraded VVD to Simpson at some stage I'd be able to afford Sanchez, Hazard, Aguero, Kane and Lukaku in the same team, with Mahrez and a 6 to 7m 4th mid.

iroced wrote: » If your plan is LAK strikeforce, what about getting Coutinho instead of Deulofeu (double Everton despite their form may be overkill and Klopp's Pool is on fire)? He's apparently OK. Klopp's main man. Your team will be better balanced. If I did not make any mistakes looking at your transfer history you'd have £1.1m left ITB after it. No hits this week. You can monitor Agüero's return a bit longer. Now you'll lose at least £0.1m on Agüero but you'll get an extra £0.1m resale from Vardy. So, you'll need £6.3m to upgrade Vardy to Agüero. Sterling to Wanyama will free £4.6m. Up to £5.7m with your bank. You need to find £0.6m. Naughton -> Wollscheid will give you that if you do it now. But this gives you no flexibility re Vardy -> Agüero. Looking at your defense, when will you actually play Wolly? 'Cause Bellerin Moreno VVD Souaré is decent enough and as we discussed in another topic Stoke fixtures aren't the most appealing right now. So if you delay this move, you could always get Simpson or Ryan Bennett as cheap enabler 5th def. If I follow your current logic, Deulofeu is here to allow Hazard at some point. Will he ever justify his price tag? We don't know. Granted they'll have Bournemouth, Sunderland & Watford at home in their next 5 games but they only beat Norwich 1-0. And there's always the Delle Alli option in midfield to make up cash .

FHFC wrote: » Thanks. Great points and food for thought. I had looked at Coutinho for that other midfield slot but couldn't afford him when going for Wolly. Your right that i can with Simpson, but only with 0.1 to spare so no room for error pricewise. Thing is, using Simpson as 5th def bench fodder means i can get Aguero with 2 transfers. And Mane to Coutinho ain't one of them!! So with hits inevitable the question probably us whether Mane to Coutinho is worth -4 over the next 2 weeks? Mane has Villa at home after City. The other concern is that lack of flexibility when it comes to Chelsea and possibly Hazard. With 3rd mid Coutinho its impossible to get Hazard. You mention Ali but its Coutinho he'd need to replace to accomodate Ozil to Hazard. Sanchez and Mahrez the other 2. So in this scenario its Sanchez OR Hazard not both. Finally the Deulofeu attraction is he really caught my eye on MOTD. Barkley got on the end of the chances but Deulofeu looked at the heart of so many attacks I suspect a big score ahead. Can Coutinho keep up his returns?
iroced wrote: » Thought you'd have £0.3m left with Simpson if you get Agüero for £13.2m. Anyway your point about flexibility still stands. But. Do you rate that badly a Sanchez Hazard Mahrez Alli midfield? I mean is Deulofeu that much a better option than Alli? If I were you that'd be the main question for me. I never rated Mané. I think he's worse than Pellé FPL-wise (means he'll prob get a hat-trick at the week-end considering my FPL form :pac:). The problem with your LAK strikeforce is it "removes" a premium mid anyhow (unless you want to go really cheap at the back).

FHFC wrote: » I don't rate it badly. Although yes i would.much prefer Deulofeu over Ali atm. But the problem is to go to that midfield via Coutinho means yet one more transfer. Already I need 4 to get rid of Mane and down Naughton and Sterling to get Aguero. Then in 3 or 4 games if I want Hazard 2 more for Ozil and Coutinho to Hazard and Ali? Have you some secret wildcard hack that you'd like to share with us!!?? Watching Chelsea tonight reminds me that Willian may be viable Chelsea cover, while i really really want Zouma! I am however coming round to Coutinho for Mane and not thinking too far ahead, other than to maybe take one of the inevitable hits this week. Simpson quite likely to rise this week I'd say. No flexibility still worries me though.
iroced wrote: » I'm a bit late with price changes right now but what about Pellè+Payet -> Lukaku+Coutinho for -4 only? Agüero will be £13.2m (maybe £13.3m) but I'll have enough to upgrade Lukaku to him if I get Wolly & Simpson/Ryan Bennett for Smalling & Kolarov for -8 next GW. That's not very different from Lemlin's suggestion. -12 too but if Agüero blanks at the week-end I may be in a better position waiting to get him back and may avoid the huge hit while having a more than decent squad. What I don't like is anyway I'm heavily reliant on Agüero scoring or blanking at the week-end...

Average at best and I'm grand (assuming Lukaku does the business). Good at least and I'm in trouble... I know I'm very late on Lukaku and I'm 50/50 on whether I have to accept I missed the train and move on to Aguero before many or give in to him and don't be stubborn (one of the worts FPL enemy)...

As well as Lukaku is playing, I don't think he's essential with so many striker options around (Aguero, Kane, Ighalo, Vardy the main ones). I think he'll do well, I'm just not sure the Aguero Kane Lukaku front line will be the best given where team values are at this stage. It's a pick two and add Vardy/Ighalo imo EDIT: Ah, you're doing Lukaku just for a short time and then switching him to Aguero. Pass for me in that case
