    Sturridge to Giroud - yes

    Alli to a saints midfielder - Mane ?

    What puts me off Saints players is that always, and i mean ALWAYS, when I bring in Mane or Pelle they blank until I sell them again.

    Question is:
    Should I take a hit to swap Carroll for Kane - who he has. Or should I keep Carroll as a differential. Kane would need to get 1 and bonus points to justify the hit with Carroll getting nothing. It would also mean that whatever Kane scores I will get 4 less than him.
    Think I have convinced myself out of taking the hit but would love to hear why I should.

    You need differentials to catch him.
    If I was being chased, I would be delighted to see the people chasing me bring in the same players as I have.

    Two transfers done and that's my lot this Gameweek and season.

    Going to run without a keeper as taking a hit is pointless when my rival will be without one as well.

    I have a 1pt lead with KDB being my big danger but hopefully my two moves will soften the blow if he does sxore double digits.

    Oh what I would give for another Mane wondershow....

    Persume I'll drop Carroll for Giroud? I have Martial too. Will he be at risk of being rested??

    Troy Deeney against that possible Sunderland defence has suddenly become very appealing...

    Very much doubt it

    I can't seem to find a transfer worth doing, wondering should I just leave my team as it is?

    Hennessey Darlow
    Simpson Daniels Bellerin PVA Rose
    Mahrez Sanchez Ozil Antonio Payet
    Carroll Kane Aguero.

    1 FT and 0.8 in the bank.
    It only gives me 6.1 to if I sell Antonio and I don't see any options there. If I sell Carroll, it gives me 7.3 again with not much options. Perhaps Deeney but I was going to bench Carroll and I think I'd rather play Antonio in case Watford don't bother putting any effort in.

    If Speroni is playing then maybe I should get a keeper in case Darlow doesn't play. Boruc or Howard.

    Just done Sturridge to Giroud.

    Was all set to do Lanzini to Tadic but only after realising that my defence is in a bigger mess than I thought....

    Lovern won't play.
    PVA likely to be rested it seems
    Evans yellow flagged with a groin injury.
    Leaving me with Morgan and Gabriel.

    I'm 0.1m short of getting Smalling which is annoying as main rival has him. Will wait and see if price rises go my way elsewhere, otherwise I'll probably get VVD in.

    Main rival will play DDG, Gabriel, Bellerin and Smalling so potential huge returns there :-(

    Am I the only person getting Aguero back in? Very little mention of him here.

    I plan on brining him back in for Carroll.
    My rival has him also which helps make my mind up. I do have 31 points on him though.

    Also have Kane and Rashford.

    Well GW 1 next season.
    Have too many fires to put out; Costa, Sturridge rotation and trying to squeeze Sanchez back in.


    I fear big bad Yannick Bolasie will be rested ahead of the Cup.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,677 ✭✭✭Aenaes


    Feck it, Howard in for Hennessey and benching Darlow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,735 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Brought Giroud and Mane in for Carroll and Firminho, which leaves me with exactly 0.0m in the bank. If that isn't fate, I dunno what is :D


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


    Defoe out for Giroud. I now have a donkey double-up with Giroud and Carroll. Just watch as Giroud misses 4 glorious chances and gets booked with 20 seconds left and Carroll scores an own goal and gets sent off for elbowing Ryan Shawcross.

    Giroud a donkey?:eek:

    I hope you're referring to the donkey in Shrek when he's turns into a handsome stallion.

    I'm bringing him back in for Deeney. He's captain material this week.

    Need to sell Mane or Mahrez for bench fodder to bring in Aguero.

    It's looking like Mahrez will go. I have had him from day one and he's been on the pitch for every minute so far.

    Never realised I was such a ruthless Bastard.

    Don't sell Mane. Great shout this week.

    Kosc Smalling Creswell (PVA Bennett)
    Sanchez Payet Hazard (Firmino Willian)
    Deeney Giroud Lukaku

    You might need to unbench someone ;)

    Only did the one transfer, Alli out for Tadic. TC played on Sanchez, final team:

    DDG
    Bellerin/Simpson/Cresswell
    Sanchez(C)/Tadic/Payet/Townsend
    Aguero/Kane/Martial

    Robles/Gabriel/Mahrez/Delaney

    Hoping for a big return from Townsend as a lovely differential :D

    Surely start Gabriel over Simpson?

    Thoughts on Mane & Deeney out scoring Agueto & Davis (Southampton) ? It would be for a -8.

    I think Aguero could score a few and Davis looks like he's playing in the hole.

    Mane was sick last week so I doubt he'll get 90 and Watford, having just announced the manager is leaving, might not turn up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,558 ✭✭✭COH


    Looking at -8 to get rid of Firmino, Lukaku & Carroll.... but who to bring in?

    After crunching more numbers there....looking like I'm left with a choice of Lanzini to Tadic, or Lovern to Valencia.

    Valencia probably the more sensible option in the circumstances (sitting on a 16 point lead) but not the most exciting way to make my last transfer of the season :-)

    I'll be taking a hit to bring in Valencia...probably worth it given rivals strong defence (?)

    Seems to be a few people dropping Defoe. Is there any particular reason?

    I'm bench boosting this week, 3 points off the leader in my private league but really reluctant to take hits.

    Defoe aguerro Carroll are my strikers... I'd love to ditch Carroll, but I don't like this Defoe talk. At least Carroll will play!

    No chance I'd get rid of lukaku for a hit this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 715 ✭✭✭loadwire


    Currently:

    Darlow (Robles)
    Bellerin Gabriel PVA (Simpson, Fosu-Mensah)
    Ojo, Sanchez(c), Hazard, Mahrez, Payet
    Aguero, Carroll (Defoe)

    Have money to do Ojo -> KDB. I should, right?

    I read somewhere earlier in the week that Simpson got convicted for wife beating and has to wear a tag and is subject to a curfew for not completing his community service. May not play this weekend.
