    Replace Cech with Hart and have him for a DGW or Schmeichel and bank a few quid? I'm torn.

    Any news on Costa? Did Hiddink mention him today?


    He said he'll start but won't play 90,

    Cheers. I'll keep him and bank my transfer so.

    I had a look at the City mids and even versus Villa I don't see any of them worth the gamble at the minute.

    Hart rising in price tonight.

    Looks like most Cech owners have made Hart their replacement. So if City get 2 clean sheets in next 2 fixtures, which they should, you'll be losing ground without him.

    Presuming you have no defenders from either team, I'd opt for Hart. You don't want to waste a transfer on a keeper down the line for City's DGW.

    I have Sagna as well, but I think Hart is the way to go all right. Thanks guys.

    I really should have sorted my team before tonight. But finding it hard to care...

    UTH
    Thought you'd already done Barkley to Siggy. Having second thoughts?


    --

    Why is everyone so panicked about getting City defs/GKs with their DGW in mind? City aren't exactly keeping CS and their DGW will involve either Chelsea away or Arsenal at home coupled with Newcastle away. There'll be much better options (United, Arsenal if they don't troll us to the ultimate trolling level). Is it people with no WC left planning ahead and using their next 2 favourable fixtures?

    Couple of questions for you guys now.

    1. For GW30, better a City def away to Norwich or a Spurs def away to Villa? Have none at the moment.

    2. This week, Sanchez or Payet out?
    Form would say Sanchez. But he did hit the post twice in his last game and who knows how far Arsenal will push their trolling level this year. If they don't blank GW30, they'll be home to WB.

    3. a) Sanchez/Payet -> Siggy & Souaré -> Alder next GW
    b) Sanchez/Payet + Souaré -> Siggy + Kompany
    c) Sanchez + Payet -> Siggy + Yaya/Silva
    d) Sanchez + Payet + Souaré -> Siggy + Yaya/Silva + Kompany for -4
    current defense is Simpson VVD Cawson (with Wollscheid benched)

    1. Norwich have more goalscorers in their team than Villa so a Spurs defender for that one.

    2. I would say Payet out. Sanchez is getting close to a big return and if they lost against Hull, midweek, he'll be at home to WBA next GW.

    3. Too confusing for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    Kompany in for Ward. Still debating getting Siggy for a hit but would mess with my plans. Can't trust Sterling/Silva over Payet or Sanchez 9 starters for GW30 atm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 850 ✭✭✭lougal88


    Worth a -4 to do Arnie -> Siggy?

    Sanchez and Souare to Siggy and Kompany because, well, that's what I did! And then bench Cawson with Man United being so unpredictable at the moment (but I wouldn't be at all surprised if west Brom actually managed a CS).

    It's a risk taking Sanchez out of the team, but it's unlikely he'll get any luck tomorrow. And Arsenal will definitely focus a lot on the FA Cup if they (God forbid and touch wood and all that)... I can't say it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Kompany in for Wollschied and Yaya in for Payet.


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


    Yaya and Silva in for Payet and Sanchez I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    I think I'll do payet to yaya

    Done. One of those lucky pens for yaya after aguero has gone off with his hat trick would be nice.

    No but was leaving it late and then was too distracted. Had half planned on going on thw lash tonight but I'm too knackered and old so I'm just going home.

    Courtois to Hart worth -4 given I'd be more than happy if it broke even this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,029 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    Be some craic if Willy got a game or 2 in the league, after all Hart didn't cover himself in glory for pool's first goal on Wednesday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,711 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    Can do Anya->Yaya and Payet->Siggy. Liking this transfer a bit more. Maybe go AOA too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    Genuinely don't know whether to do Arnie or Payet to Siggy for -4 or just leave it. I'm well set for gw30 and never really trusted Arnie as a fantasy asset so I think I'll do that bu I'm having a hard time pulling the trigger. Especially seeing so many favouring Sanchez or Payet out to get Siggy.

    I'd keep Payet, Everton are poor at home and West Ham are flying at the moment. Don't think it's worth it for a -4

    No. I'm not a fan of -4 for keepers and Chelsea being home to Stoke...
    You can do it next week for free and play a good looking 3-4-3.

    You still have your WC and most chips so you're still on for a strong finish. Forget about your current rank. You've seen what 2 good GWs can do in terms of jumping high up the rankings.

    If FPL players stop trolling us we should be rewarded in GW30. And a well played WC should pay dividends too.

    Looking at your team, you've a no brainer move to make in Barkley -> Siggy or Yaya/Silva (though City mids form is worse than dire).
    Then change your keeper next GW.

    At least that's what I'd do. When I'm struggling, I try to keep it simple ;).


    I have to say Yaya really tempts me but I've just checked his last 7 games return and jeez there's no word to say how bad it was :eek:!

    Bench Alli or Ozil?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    Bench Alli or Ozil?

    Alli. I'm torn between him or Arnie to bench if I don't get Siggy for -4


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,255 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Guys...I'm right not to touch City mids...right? I mean, they are utter garbage in FPL recently.

    Actually, I can't. The dreaded .1 short. So do I take a 4pt hit to make it happen? Can do Hennessy->Elliot to free up the extra.

    Is it worth taking the hit? I fear Yaya could score heavily. And Siggy has great fixtures.

    Exceptionally good advice and just what I needed to hear.

    Start Huth or Arnie?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,993 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    This Spurs Arsenal game will be an ugly watch in the morning. I've got rid of Alexis so will be dodging him, I'll play Kane so will be funking for him, then I'll either have Ozil or Alli most likely Ozil playing, so I'll be funking and dodging there, not looking forward to it, probably best not to watch it actually!

    I has him for 5 of those weeks. He was somewhat unlucky but it's clear he's nowhere near the player or the FPL option he once was.
    I'll be staying away from him for the rest of the season I think.
