    Jason Knight at Derby County. Frank brought him into the match day squad end of last season, Philip Cocu has given him some play time but seems to have out of the match day squad for a few games recently. Great potential though. "Cabo" can be proud of him.

    Not much use if he's in The Championship :pac:

    I've heard good things about Lionel Messi. :D
    Can't buy him either though.

    Was watching sky sports news and then were banging on about Reece James for Chelsea and how he could take Azpi place

    No way azpi will be dropped
    Could move into CB though
    Zouma is poison

    Went off injured

    Yeah it didn’t quite work out alright. He wasn’t great up until his injury either so not likely an option anymore.

    If the injury isn’t serious he may get a few 20 minute cameos til January (hopefully we sign another striker in Jan) though if anyone feeling really punty on bench fodder.

    Moussa Djenepo (Southampton) for GW14. His underlying statistics are great and he's only 5.2m. He's due back from injury.

    Never heard of him. What’s his position?

    Winger. Looks like a young Zaha.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,039 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    I would have said a young Mane, given the club he plays for!

    2 goals in 3 games (2 sub, 1 start) pre-injury.

    Definitely time to start considering Grealish now (can't believe I'm saying that).

    T-3rd in chances created (includes key passes and assists)

    7th in expected assists and T-4th in actual assists

    24th in expected goals @2.50 and has 2 goals

    One small (and underestimated) little bonus of having played 90 mins in every game so far.

    RCvPih.jpg


    All of that for what will likely be 6.0 million next week. If he can hold out and stay quiet (while keeping his numbers up) until his December schedule I would likely bring him in.

    Some really good passers on their team. Big worry is how weak they are up front. In the end-of-the-day, both of their goals came from set-pieces.

    If Wesley could finish shots they’d be a great link

    I brought in Grealish this past gameweek. Is it best to stick with him over these tough fixtures as he has a great set of fixtures over Christmas?

    If you’re changing for someone else in that price range you’re fairly limited. Not convinced by Zaha at all this season so wouldn’t consider him too much just yet.

    I think stick, but to be honest that is only because nobody else within a million of his prior interests me other than Lucas Moura.

    Cheers. I do have 1.7 million in the bank so can still just about afford Maddison for him in GW15 if he doesn’t rise again before that.

    My bench is weak though so it may be worth my while using a few transfers over the coming gameweeks to improve that area.

    Anyone been looking at Southampton? The inner Prodston in me has me looking at Nathan Redmond.

    Exact money to get him in for Dendoncker for a -4

    It’s a no brainer move.

    He’d be my 4th choice Saint after Ings, SWP and Djenepo.

    Ings is clearly the one to have and there’s not much between the other 3.

    Yeah I decided against it in the end. Super John Lundstram can play instead of Tammy this gw


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,039 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    both Djenpo & Ox are both on my watchlist.

    Ox is a real goal threat this season. Fabinho injured so another midfield spot is freed up


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,741 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    Martin - wham keeper starting at 4. And Williams at United 4.

    The last I heard Fab could be back St. Stephens day (GW 19) at the earliest but also talk he's back training on grass. Martin could be good for FPLers with the itch for SGW BB but the window is small.

    Is Recce James worth considering? He’s started 3 of the last four. I saw him in their CL match against Ajax and he looked very dangerous going forward, very advanced

    Dear at 5m though

    Alonso looks a goner so would need to know why Emerson has missed out.

    Dave moved over to left back last game so if Emerson is back then Dave could go back to right back.

    If you can guarantee he's a starter he is a great shout. One of the best crossers of the ball in the league.

    Martinelli played for arsenal at 4.5 will watch but doubtful he keeps Lacazette out

    I mean they can’t put Laca out on the wing, and Auba is too clinical to be left out there too. Martinelli could be a shout

    Saw him play a European game a few weeks back and he looked excellent. Can't believe Emery didn't give him a chance when they were struggling

    I've watched all their Europa games, he's the real deal. Can see him getting a run in the league now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Problem is he is a forward
    If he was a mid id possibly take a punt as a fifth mid
    Too many better options up front


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,428 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Sidibe (5.3) Everton defender
    • 3 assists in last 5 appearances
    • 7 of next 8 are Burnley, Newcastle (twice), West Ham, Watford, Brighton, Palace
    • New manager bounce

    Interesting alternative to Digne-Roulette

    He has caught my eye too
    Very attacking
    Will surely be rotated once over Xmas though with coleman
    And who knows
    Ancellotti May even go for coleman
    He will certainly give him a chance

    Nearly a goal and an assist too.

    Be interesting to see if he can keep his place.

    He played RCB in a back 3, with Sess a hybrid LWB/LM on the other side, but as the match went on he got further forward and ended as RB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,433 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Keinan Davis came on for Samatta on Tuesday nite after 67m. Could get a run if he got a goal or two. Striker down as a 4.3m mid
