    I'm going to give Ziyech and Werner one more week as I think the Leeds fixture should suit them but if they don't get decent returns then at least one of them will be gone.

    Postponed Watkins to Wilson last week as I wanted to get in Jota after seeing Rodriquez blank against Fulham and did not want to take a hit. Now questioning the transfer again after the COVID 19 outbreak at Newcastle news breaking. Could be worth keeping Watkins for another week and waiting for the outbreak at Newcastle to be under control before bringing in Wilson.

    Mitchell also needs to go as I think it is necessary this season to have a playing bench but only have 5.3mill budget if Wilson is going up in price. Worried I'm even considering Dier as an option.

    I'm trying to be a bit more proactive on it compared to first few weeks. I tried the waiting it didn't work. I've had kane ages, he got me lots of points but I don't think he's worth it in the next few weeks. Ziyech will get points but I feel like bamford it is going to be in dribs and drabs. Someone's mentioned covid and Newcastle now. Either way, I am pretty sure I will downgrade kane to Wilson, bamford or even cavani! Then I can do Ziyech to de bruyne! Plan would be to go from kdb to Salah for Fulham and vice versa the week after but of vardy is struggling I'll ship him as well for a cheaper forward. All in on the midfield.

    Surely Mahrez is un-droppable after a hat-trick Pep.

    Pep?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    I'm going to downgrade Werner and Kane over the next couple of weeks so I can get a midfield with Salah, KDB and Bruno. Not going swapping between them so I'm going to get all 3.

    My thinking too. May do Kane to Ings for GW 12

    I had all 3 this week with Kdb captain. I got 36 points between them and with some luck it could have been 50+
    With Dcl, Adams, Bamford, Watkins, Wilson and possibly Antonio when he’s fit there’s more than enough cheap strikers to facilitate it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,447 ✭✭✭Ginger n Lemon


    Nothing to do with outsmarting

    It's a simple question of

    Bruno V West Ham Away
    KDB V Fulham at Home

    Bruno is the only way to get KDB unless I think a hit around elsewhere. I only want KDB for 1 week.

    Then it's United V City and Salah has Fulham.

    In terms of outsmarting I think I'm just playing a very simple game of captain someone V Fulham.

    Vardy (C)
    KDB(C)
    Salah(C)

    Serious question and I appreciate a bit random, if in the unlikely event Vardy and KDB blank against Fulham, will you still proceed to captain Salah v Fulham?

    He did it to Sterling last season iirc

    The problem is Pep might reward him by playing him against porto midweek and then not start him against Fulham.

    Definitely in the category of

    If you have him keep him
    If you don't, don't bring him in.

    Fack knows with Pep. I'm hoping he's benched V Porto myself.

    I am starting to think Sterling could be on the way out of Man City, sure Pep sold Sane and he was playing decent. Mahrez, Torres and Foden all look lively.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    I am doing similar Fulham remind me of the Derby team from years ago. Almost guaranteed goals conceeded.

    Antonio back fit and starting tonight....


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee


    Have a decent squad after wildcard last week and have 2 FTs so dont really need to do these but thinking AWB & Robinson to Dier & Bamford. More CS potential and more goal potential but will also give me a front 7 headache every week.
    Any thoughts?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,483 ✭✭✭macraignil


    Wilson gone from 48% to a rise early this evening to 85% to a rise now on fplstatistics so swapping him in for Watkins now in case I miss the price change later in the week. Watkins penalty miss making the decision that mush easier.

    I'd hold off on that move until we hear more solid info on this...

    Check the injuries and suspension thread, Newcastle apparently heavily hit with covid.

    The Newcastle and Palace game wasn’t over before I did my -4 of Semedo & Jimenez to Nkounkou & Aguero.

    Probably went a bit too early with that one.

    Aguero still has a niggle to his knee,

    Yeah.

    Think that came out after my transfer.

    Not difficult to turn it into a -8.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭Chuck Noland


    Johnstone Button
    Lascelles KWP Kilman Lamptey Justin
    Jota KDB Grealish Bruno Ziyech
    Adams Kane Richarlison

    1.0 itb. 2FT
    Not sure what to do this week. Lascelles & Ziyech seem the likeliest candidates for the chopping block but not certain what too do and willing to accept any advise from anyone

    Hmm I can’t see an obvious move there.
    I would look to get ziyech to Salah somehow and maybe chilwell/ James / zouma in for one of the defenders (kilman if he lost his place)
    That would probably involve downgrading Kane


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,058 ✭✭✭Brian201888


    James Rodriguez to KDB and Vardy to Bamford to fund it I think. Got Vardy in for his fixtures and could sit on it till next week if I wanted but if


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,061 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    After the disaster of seeing all 3 of Cancelo, Foden & Sterling (c) benched against Burnley, surely all 3 start against Fulham.....

    Knowing my luck this season, I'll swap Sterling for KDB and KDB will be benched. :O

    Thanks for the warning but decided to take the risk having heard that news earlier. Just hoping there are not that many players positive and Wilson plays. Will probably take a hit to get in an extra player for Mitchell if Wilson looks to miss out on Friday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,597 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    Newcastle's next covid test is Wednesday so should know more then hopefully or else on Thursday


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭Jim Gazebo


    Feels like a crossroads this one. Have both vardy and kane. Have settled on kane out, at least vardy is in and around the box. Kane p1ssing me off at 10.7m spending half the game breaking up play. Could bite me but I'm happy enough to take the risk.

    It's either bamford / Wilson in but have enough in bank to wait for covid news. Prefer Wilson. Cavani is really tempting me but if I do it it means my third forward is less than 5.7m when I downgrade vardy for premium mid. Not so good... Where as I can have bamford and Wilson and hope for the best.

    So for this week, it will be Ziyech > kdb, and kane > bamford / Wilson / cavani. For a hit.

    Looking at kdb for Salah next week. Then I'll get KDB back by downgrading vardy for another hit. I think it will be worth it.

    Decisions here could make a difference at the end and not having city will kill me I think.

    Why is everyone preferring kdb over sterling.after a weeks rest i think he will explode and plays in a better position than kdb who stays deep.
    I'm considering to give him the armband this week.

    Rashford & Jrod to Jota & Sterling for a minus 4

    Will wait until after the porto game

    Well the way pep was talking about not resting players and playing them on merit did not sound good for sterling.

    I’m looking at the same moves. Have Kane and Vardy and looking to sell for Wilson/Bamford and get KDB in for Ziyech. I’m more leaning towards keeping Kane against Arsenal though.

    Thinking about perhaps making these moves
    Ziyech - Anguissa
    Adams - 10mill striker

    Which leaves me funds to bring in James next week for Kilman or Lacselles and allows me to hold Kane


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,058 ✭✭✭Brian201888


    Exact cash for KBD, Jota, Adams in for James Rod, Neto, Vardy

    Would give me what appears to be the perfect midfield of Salah, Jota, Bruno, Grealish, KDB.

    Unsure if I should spend the Adams money somewhere else and get Brewster in for him given I can't see him starting very often when I've Werner and Watkins also. Be 3-5-2 every time with that midfield really


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,513 ✭✭✭Dubh Geannain


    One week with Vardy. It'll be him or Kane for the door this week.

    The strikers had a good start to the season but I think it's time to start focusing again on the midfield being the strongest part of the team. Currently don't have Salah or KDB whom I'd both like.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,297 ✭✭✭✭gammygils


    Planning to bring Wilson in for Kane to raise funds to get the Prophet back. But now Newcastle Villa game in jeopardy and I have 2 Villa and a dodgy bench I'll have to hold off and rethink :confused:

    Im almost at that midfield too, just a Zaha to Grealish transfer away from it. Should have got Grealish weeks ago, he has been very consistent with points hauls and now he might be on penalties after Watkins missed yet again last night.

    Very strong, but I'd always have Son in my ideal midfield (currently have him instead of KDB)

    KDB looked very advanced to me (I only saw the 2nd half mind). Hit the inside of the post, could easily have ended up on 16 points if that had gone in. You also don't have the headache of Pep roullette.

    Sterling has blanked last 4 games he's played, 2 goals and 1 assist this season. Not saying he's not capable of exploding but he has no form. KDB doesn't need rest to return a double digit score.

    Man City also shouldn't need KDB in order to beat Fulham, especially with the Derby game a week later. team news tonight will be interesting.

    City are already through in the CL so can see DB being rested for those games and playing in the league games where they need to pick up points

    I say no.

    Lol why would he play KDB on Saturday only to be play him again on Tuesday, and then leave him out for 1.5 weeks before utd derby?

    Id be 90% confident KDB is rested tonight, plays Fulham on weekend, rested vs Marseille and then plays UTD. 7 days in between games to manage fitness.

    Fairly nervous. But no names been announced, next thing you know some bench warmers got covid and U23s will just replace them.

    If city lose tonight Porto can top the group. Kdb had his rest last week. It's then 4 days to Fulham game which makes a difference. I said he will also play Saturday . So he would then get a 1 week rest before the derby.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭Jim Gazebo


    Worst situation possible with this Newcastle covid situation and trying to organise transfers for the weekend. Can't move early over covid but missing out on price rises is a killer too...
