    Would really appreciate any feedback.

    So... great start to the season for me sat on 223 points but now I'm really stuck on what to do to continue. current team is
    Mignolet
    Zaba, Coleman, Lescott
    Walcott, Miralas, Silva, Nolan
    Sturridge, Giroud, Soldado

    Daniels, Chester, Kasami, Whittaker. 1Mil in bank

    I'm aware Lescott might not start now and at some point in the near future will be upgrading him to Vidic/Pool/Spurs defender. My problem at the moment is what to do next, I have been milling over 3 options and would really appreciate some feedback on what some of you more experienced FPL players think of the following options.

    A) Walcott -> 5.5 or lower mid (most likely brady as he has some kind fixtures coming up) and
    Soldado -> RVP for a 4 point hit. If I do this in the upcoming weeks will be changing Lescoot as mentioned earlier and Miralas for Spurs covers unless Everton start scoring.

    B) Soldado -> Benteke both have good fixtures but I see Benteke as a better long term prospect.

    C) Giroud -> Benteke same as B

    D) Leave strike force as it is and do Lescott -> Vidic so I have some ManU cover for the home game against Palace.

    E) Something else

    Thanks in advance for any help.

        It's what Im leaning towards the most, will wait for next transfer to get lescoot out, if he starts next game then great, if not I don't mind chester coming off the bench at home againsat Cardiff. The thought of no Spurs or United cover for this gameweek scares me though.

    Not even a supporter, but it seems that anti-Utd fans are suffering from some sort of PTSD or Stockholm Syndrome where they grew to worship their captors when Ferguson was in charge and now that he's gone they spent all summer meekly praising the new boss before finding out it's safe to lash out and unload two decades of bile.

    Actually makes supporting Arsenal seem psychologically refreshing and somewhat healthy...

              You can probably do Silva > Lampard and then hope Mignolet doesn't rise 0.3 which I don't think he will.

                    I've just pulled the trigger - just seen I have 0.1m spare so wouldn't have been an option to delay until 14th. Thanks for advice!

        I just don't get why Mourinho doesn't rate Mata. Is it a personal thing? Is he too assist-y? I just don't get it.

        So if Mata does go to PSG how is the Chelsea midfield set to look?

        Lamp - Ramires
        Willian - Oscar - Hazard

          I think he wants someone to do what they're told and track back.

            Strong rumours that PSG are keen and talks have started. Given his benching so far Mourinho clearly doesn't rate him.

          Mata is Chelsea's best player. Craziness. Schurrle too somewhere, and kdb, and mikel, essien, van ginkel

          Pure politics. Mourinho hates Casillas and vice-versa. Casillas is friends with Mata, and told him a few things about Mourinho's time at Madrid.

        Is there a loan deadline different from a transfer deadline? Our are both signings considered to be the same transactio type and therefore governed by the same timetable? Thanks.

          Dont let the truth get in the way of your pathetic wumming.

          They havent sold him. In fact they have said he isnt for sale.

          They dont need to sell him.

          He has a little knock and had an extended break after playing no stop football for the last 2 seasons.

          No need to WC, just make a few transfers. Dzeko > Benteke and Coutinho > HBA/Nolan/Lampard for example.

          Lampard if you need to free up funds, Oscar if you can afford the extra.

            It's actually not that bad - not overloaded on defence like some I've seen, and with Walcott and Oscar has 2 top mids in there. Pretty good for an RVP team.
