Not a bad option. Ulloa is probably more nailed on though IMO and has good fixtures too.
I'm bringing Downing in today though so any west ham is a good option imo
Rick I replied to your post a few pages back about downing. Do you think that Nolan coming back would push downing out wide again?
Downing seems to create more for others in the middle, but out wide he has more shots it seemsI don't think Nolan will come straight in to this side. They are playing some good football and Nolan would disrupt that style I think.
Zarate looked awesome in the hole at Palace so he's a bigger worry.
That said, Downing is on set pieces and no team has had more attempts off corners than west ham so there's always that to fall back on, just like with fabregas.
Very tempting I've really liked watching him this season. Too many good forwards though!
Good to go next week??
DDG
Naylor / Clyne / Moore
Siggy / Cesc / ADM / Sterling
Aguero(c) / Pelle / Costa(vc)
Gilks / Albrighton / PVA / Wisdom
Right I got pelle and Costa and need to get rid of Rooney here my options
A) ulloa
B) welbeck
C) sakho
D aguero In with fab out -4
E) aguero in with siggy out -4
C
A
Good transfer?
Cahill/Ramsey/Rooney -> Moore/DiMaria/Agüero (-4)
Not bad at all... If the Cahill downgrade doesn't leave your defence in too much of a state, I'd say go for it.
Would leave me with Baines Collocini Naylor Wisdom Moore
Looks okay, think it's worth the risk.
Would get someone other than dimaria
why?
If ye are really stuck there is a 4.3 midfielder now.
Who's that?
Isgrove, doubt he'll get many minutes tho
Oh damn, I reckon he's not a bad pick. Looked decent in preseason and has got a couple of subs appearances iirc. Could become the best cheapie later in the season
What do we reckon Che-Ars will finish??
I'm going for 3-13-0 or 4-0.
Chelsea can get tight in big games and will destroy a naive Arsenal on the break. Spurs could have had 3 goals in the first half alone if they had been more clinical/less shite.If Sanchez and Ox start I think they'll rip their fullbacks up. Can't see them keeping Arsenal totally quiet but Chelsea should get the win. They didn't destroy City and I don't think their defense has been that solid so far
I'm 0.3 short of this GW8 team 🙁
Begovic
Baines Clyne Chambers
Siggy Fabregas Sterling Tadic
Costa Pelle Sturridge
(Krul // Downing Taylor Wisdom)
Should have gone for Downing yesterday :/ Hopefully Ulloa can rise another 0.3 before then lol
trying to work out how poisonous balotelli will be for sturridge. a look at aguero's record with balotelli isn't very encouraging. there are famous occassions e.g the 6-1 v man utd and the aguerrrrroooooooooooooooo goal, but aside from those 2 i found just 1 other match where aguero scored with balotelli on the pitch http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/spielbericht/index/spielbericht/1131599
i don't trust rodgers to not play balotelli and it's really put me off sturridge (sterling seems enough)
Why not consider balo at all?
he could be the better striker choice, which tbh puts me off them both. balo can't finish his dinner unless the plate is put on the penalty spot
I read a good article today about his bad conversion rate and anyone watching Milan can confirm. That he had to take so many long shots and create his own chances, a bit like suarez when he first came to the pl. He is getting much more shots in the boxand has been unlucky Imo. I thinking he is a nice sleeper at the moment
They linked up really well vs spurs. I think sturridge's runs will give Balotelli the space he needs
will sturridge even play full games in the PL until the madrid games are out of the way?
Hmm...you could be onto something here.
Balo was a strange buy by BR. Doesn't fit into the Liverpool way of playing at all.
had he a choice in it?
I agree I saw aguero and ballo at church (etihad) first hand . Ballo's selfishness on the ball is unparalleled, couple that with his shooting ability and you have a potential nightmare for studge owners
Hmm.
Didn't Mancini play Aguero in behind Balotelli though? Would likely be more of a flat front two at Liverpool. Also, compared to Aguero in that shape, Sturridge would still be making plenty of runs in behind the opposition's backline, and would certainly not be anywhere near as prone to looking for the pass rather than the shot.I think they will work very very good together, it's the two players in the league that has the most shots per game (I know it doesnt tell the whole story, i.e ballo long shots, but still)
that's exactly what's putting me off! balo takes so many shots and gives nothing back. his assists are dives and rebounded shots
Nah he has some good passes also, but they come mostly when he is holding up the ball and passing it to someone running into room... and who does that?:)
Evening fellas! Getting a nose bleed at the minute with my current position but filled with doubts in the team now. Thinking of doing the standard Rooney & Ramsey > Aguero & Tadic but I'm a bit concerned my defence looks pants for next week! Could do Roon > Dzeko and sort the defence? Any thoughts are appreciated.
Mannone
Terry Clyne Coloccini
Di Maria Ramsey Sterling Siggy
Rooney Costa Pella
Krul Marney Wisdom Hutton
not worth hits for the defence, no guarantees their replacements will do any better anyway
Sorry forgot to mention I've got 2FTs
just did roo and rams to aguero and tadic. feels good. recommended.
Wisdom has done well but Gamboa looks a quality player, wonder if Wisdom's forced rest in the Liverpool game will open the door for his team mate, could be an issue
If he has a good game could v well complicate things.
Gotta hope Pool hammer them then and Gamboa gets the blame 🙂
Wisdom didnt come off though when Gamboa came on which can indicate he will be safe after the Pool game.
A) Fabregas & Falcao
B) Tadic & Aguero
A. Everton will be tired from Thursday.
and after the Everton game still A... Talking long term
There is a sick note in both options so I wouldn't call either long term, they will get injured this season and sooner rather than later I suspect.
Yea I get that but you talked as in 1 game. I'm thinking at least the next 5
B
A
A) Rooney > Pelle
B) Rooney & Kompany > Falcao(c) & Mertesacker -4
A

Is it crazy to double up on So'ton (Pelle and tadic) and Chelsea (Haz and Costa) and go without and Utd, Arsenal or Everton players ?
Wish jovetic would sod off!
Harsh on him.
He's a superb player.Yeah I know but it's complicating my aguero dzeko decision!
A) Falcao Welbeck
B) Ageuro Sakho (-4 point hit)RMT please lads.
Forster (Myhill)
Clyne Duff Moreno (Rose, Wisdom)
Sterling Fab ADM Siggy (Cattermole)
Ulloa Rooney Costa
1 FT and 2.6 ITB. Any tips? Was thinking either Aguero or Sturridge in for Rooney after watching UCL matches.
Just did Roo > Pelle. Feels good 😎
Hoping Spurs(A) will bring returns with Spurs on their travels.
Haz or ADM?
Haz
ADM
Ok. Last time I'm posting this. So far the Verdict is WC. Thoughts?
DDG/Gilks
Cahill/Duff/Dummet/Clyne/Chester
Siggy/Ramsey/Sterling/ADM/Marney
Pelle/Rooney/Costa
0.0 ITB
Bad keeper. Only 3 nailed defenders with Cahill's value rapidly dropping. Ramsey And Rooney out. Not sure what to do from here, bad fixtures for my three nailed defenders as well (Arsenal, Leicester and Spurs) Marney also injured just to rub salt in the wounds 🙁
Rooney is also about to drop and I don't like the fact that I would have to make my transfer early to get in Aguero. Just before UCL fixturesNot too dissimilar from mine.....no need to WC, just swap roon/Ramsey this week and a defender next week
Yeah but my defence is all over the place. I've been planning to swap my defenders for a while but a bigger issue keeps coming up. I can't get a good replacement for Ramsey since I want to do Rooney to Aguero. I would have to get someone 7.0 and under.
Go Chadli....and upgrade your defence
For -8? Would rather just WC to be honest..
That's definately worth a WC imo. I'd imagine you'd only probably want to keep 5 or 6 of the 15 players.
Ramsey to
A. Ozil
B. Silva
C. Tadic
Begovic
Clyne - PvA - Kelly
ADM - Sterling - xx - Siggy
Costa - Aguero - Welbeck
Gilks -- Marney - Ferdinand - Chester
I have that front seven with Tadic so I am biased. Apparently he hit the post twice yesterday. Hoping for great things from him, though he might be like Eriksen last year and only really pay off after you have shipped him.
Maybe take a punt and get Ozil?
How's she looking? I'm kinda stubborn about the Lukaku pick. 2.4m in the bank after latest transfers, should be enough to grab Kun if needed eventually.
Bego (4)
PvA, Moore, Lovren (Clyne (might switch him in), Duff)
ADM, Fab, Siggy, Sterling (Marney)
Costa (c), Pelle, LukakuNolan a good pick for next 2 gw or Downing a safer bet?
Urgh. He shouldn't even be making the bench
How vital is ADM ?
My first instinct when Rooney and Ramsey had to leave was to swap with welbeck and adm. I'm now tempted by having no Mufc players and tadic .....good move ?Man Utd will score lots of goals
Spread over multiple players tho
Debating this myself....tempted to go Tadic or even Haz
Yes. I don't think any United player is a great option to be honest
still far too early to tell with di maria. i think people are confusing great non fpl player with great fpl player a lot though. i want to see more of him, in a variety of different fixtures too
No united-players is relatively safe for the next 6 gameweeks imo..
I've done Rooney>Dzeko, but am now considering playing my wildcard to shift Ramsey, Lovren and big Bobby Z! Already shifted Debuchy, Nasri and Bruce in recent weeks! Constant maintenance!
Can you get Aguero and Tadic for them?
Trouble with downgrading Rooney to someone like Ulloa, Sahko or even Dzeko is you lose one valuable captain option. Was set on Ulloa, but now not so sure.
It's immaterial if I push the WC button after the end of the gameweek, but a little loathed to do that as my rank is fine and I'll probably end up fecking it up 🙂
Decisions, decisions....Good point about captain choice ......
just capt costa every week
Six of one for me because I'd lost all faith in Rooney as a captaincy option. I take your point thou.
Aguero can be given the armband.
my head is about to explode
which is better
1. Aguero, tadic, Naismith
2. Dzeko, Tadic, Pelle
3. Aguero, Arfield/ Boyd, PelleThis
1 by a mile
2 for me
3.
I've just brought in Aguero and Tadic, so 1. Maybe without Naismith though.
thanks but this is making it worse 🙁
Every one of those is a risk but I also say 3, depending on how you'd use Boyd.
1 by far, imo.
Best replacement for Rooney and Ramsey?
Currently thinking Aguero, Sterling and Hutton in for Rooney, Ramsey and Debuchy (-4pt hit) Have to do it tonight or tomorrow so I can afford it. Good moves or any other suggestions?
Thanks
Should I now keep Mata this week now that Rooney is out?
Interested in anyone's opinion.
Mannone ( Krul )
Terry clyne chambers ( wisdom Baird )
Ramsey Siggy sterling di Maria ( Cattermole )
Rooney Costa Naismith
About to pull the trigger on:
Rooney ---- Aguero
Naismith ---- Ulloa for -4.
I know I should be getting rid of Ramsey first but seeing as it will be -4 anyway, dare I just play Cattermole and wait on Ramsey til following week?I would pull the trigger on Ramsey tbh
Anyone else have crappy fixtures for their defence?
Nah, Ivan PVA and Moore or Clyne, not sure who to bench of the latter 2....
no brainer for me, bench clyne
yep. for once am jealous of not having moore
I haven't looked at fixtures but my defense is definitely crap 😆
19.4 to spend on a mid and forward... What duo would you have?
Cheers 🙂
9 years, 7 months agoSakho looks great value for someone wanting to rotate with big mids. £5.5m and has scored or assisted in the 3 games he has started this season. QPR (H) next.
