    Guys, what do you suggest with 2 FT & 0.2m itb?

    Panti
    Clyne / Ivan / Pva
    Haz / Sanchez / Eriksen / Silva
    Kane / Kun / Austin
    (Krul / Walters / Bruce / Wasi)

    A) Pva -> Naughton and save 1 FT
    B) Walters -> Cork and save 1 FT
    C) Wasi & Walters -> Naughton & Cork
    D) Walets & Sanchez -> Mane/Siggy & Cork
    E) any other suggestions

      C..but you could get better than Cork.

  2. Joggers Nipple

    Morning. Think my 2 problems are ones that many have here-

    Foster/Myhill
    Terry Alderweild PVA Hadria Wollo
    Hazard Silva Erik Boyd Sanchez
    Aguero Kane Giroud
    2FT 1M ITB No WC

    Problem 1. Sanchez. I know hes a waste of money but uninspired to by other options
    1A) Hold Sanchez
    1B) Sanchez to Siggy
    1C) Sanchez to Mata
    1D) Sanchez to someone else

    Problem 2. No Benteke or Austin
    2A) Keep the front line as it is
    2B) Any forward to Austin
    2C) Aguero or Giroud to Benteke

    I am currently thinking 1B and 2A. The Siggy move raise loads of funds for Costa later. I might also do Terry to Ivan in prep for the double. (Hadria to Naughton and Foster to Davis in mind for later, not urgent imo)

    Any thoughts really welcome

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      1B
      2A

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers, thinking the same

    2. Old
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      1 B or C or D
      2 A

      Keep Aguero IMO
      No need to transfer Austin in now - you need to use a transfers to get him out as well.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks.
        Think i am pretty set on ignoring Austin and Benteke now

        1. Gooner Kebab
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          you could use 1FT for Kun to Tekkers, and bring him back next gw.

    3. PhoggyRatherGroggy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I am in the same boat as you and thinking I might just do the boring goalie transfer. Can't see a standout option for Sanchez and can't seem to drop any of those forwards for benteke or Austin! Maybe guzan or Greene for a one week punt? If not then bolster a good rotating goalie with myhill and reasses next week!!

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Sanchez is worry. I know hes expensive, i know hes scored poorly recently and i know he is playing wider.I also know that when i ship him out this week for say Siggy he will grab 15 points at home to Lpool

        1. PhoggyRatherGroggy
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Exactly! There are really not any mids out there that are very tempting besides the ones you allready have! I would love to ship him as well but mata, mane, Siggy, Ramsey, caz, downing etc are just not that appealing right now! It's a tough one for sure.

  3. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO

    India going to win this if we can manage a good opening partnership .

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Its a sound start

    2. Mr. Grv
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Lucks on our side till now

      1. Jay10
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yup!! If we get to 150 by 26th over with 2 or less down,we will be favourites. And Aus have a problem with their 5th bowler too.

  4. Old
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    OK - guess I'm not the only one thinking of the replacement of Sanchez this GW?
    And, I'm probably not the only one thinking of one of the following:

    1) Siggy
    2) Mane
    3) Mata
    4) Others

    So the questions is, who do you guys predict gets the most points from now on until end of the season?

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I need the money so going 1, if i didnt would go 3

    2. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Siggy has less points potential with no Bony

      I'd be tempted by Mata if you're happy with form over fixtures.

      Downing is in my mind. Assumes west ham start to hit some form though. Leaves plenty of money to spend elsewhere too

  5. Biggsy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Need to ship out Forster (as I have a dud sub keeper).

    Would you go for straight swap to Davies or perhaps Myhill? Latter leaves me tempted to get Toby in (for a hot) to keep double Soton at the back

    Forster, Hamer
    PVA, Bertrand, Dawson, Wolly, Naughton
    Sanchez, Silva, Eriksen, Has, Puncheon
    Kun, Kane, austin

    Does put off downgrading Sanchez for another week though. Thoughts appreciated

    1. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Read the watchlist, Myhill has 3 good short term fixtures only.

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He does have only 3 decent fixtures but he's also only 4m so he buys you the time to move money for a proper double keeper or a big improvement on your current second keeper.

        The idea of a triple Southampton block is nice but at this stage of the season it is also ultra risky when every point counts, one goal takes out three defenders and unless you are chasing it seems like one risk too far.

        1. Gooner Kebab
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          fair enough, i'm gonna bring him in too!

          1. _Freddo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Buys just enough time to decide on turning Hammer into Ospina or Mignolet for me and fixes my inactive keeper that I've had for weeks.

            Can only be seen as a win win IMO.

    Panti (Forster*)
    Ivan | Clyne | Rose (Dawson | McShane)
    Haz | Silva | Sterling | Eriksen (Boyd)
    Aguero | Kane | Austin

    2 FTs

    does this plan sound resonable for the next 3 GWs?

    GW31: Rose โžก Naughton
    GW32: Forster, Sterling/Eriksen, Austin โžก K.Davis, Mane/Downing, D.Costa (-4)
    GW33: save FT

    Jonas Gutierrez: I'll never forgive Newcastle for treatment during cancer battle

    - https://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/premier-league-jonas-gutierrez-ill-never-forgive-newcastle-072256930--sow.html

    1. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Very sad, with Ashley in charge Newcastle are purely a business, no room for emotion (no room for ambition either). Their fans are great, but they're a very difficult club to like now.

    2. Lambey
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Disgraceful treatment but like doolittle said, ashley runs it purely as a business.

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        No business ditches its employees during their time of need. Not in this country anyway.

        1. Doolittle
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Most businesses don't get rid of all their best employees either, but it's purely for Ashley's profit.

          1. Qubit
            • 14 Years

            I dont know where you guys live.

            1. Ginkapo FPL

            2. Doolittle
              • 11 Years

              London, why?

              1. Qubit
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Just my observation is that companies couldn't give 2 hoots about their employees and frequently don't even know who their best ones are! (Im also in the UK).

                1. Doolittle
                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  My company were actually great to me when I needed time off for a bereavement, but get your point. It's all money based I guess, most companies keep their best employees because they make them money. As Newcastle are mid-table every season, I suppose players like Cabaye were just costing them.

    3. GreenWindmill
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Sadly this is the kind of thing people associate with our club these days. I even find it hard to say 'our club' as the fans and their wishes are so disconnected from the way things are run. Sad times ๐Ÿ™

    Another kohli fail in a world cup knock out game. good player but still overrated

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      ๐Ÿ™„

      He's won us a lot of crucial knock out games. Asia cup final vs Pakistan when he scored 183 was one of those.

      1. The Machine
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Every good player has good innings.

        his recent tests innings vs Australia were one of the very, very few achievements outside the Asian batting pitches

        Also he's never scored 183 in a final. Wrong again probably a group match

        1. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah was a group game. India vs Pakistan are anyways bigger than knock outs.

          Give him 10 more years and he'd have done all that you mention.

          1. The Machine
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            He averages like 30 against pakistan

      2. The Machine
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        The only asia cup final he's played in, he scored 27. Surprise

        1. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          He's got the best average in the world when chasing 300+ scores.

          1. The Machine
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Exactly. Batting pitches

              1. The Machine
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                When did I say he has done nothing outside asia? of course he has. I could find quite a few knocks from almost every above average batsmen outside asia.

                1. pundit of punts
                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  Like I said above, give him 10 more years and he'd have a lot of superb knocks outside Asia.

                  Too early in his career to draw any conclusion.

                  1. The Machine
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 1 month ago

                    Agree. Applies more to people already comparing him to all time greats though

              2. The Machine
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Talk about scoring a century on a batting track. 640 runs for 9 wickets in that game. Great innings but you're just proving my point now

                1. pundit of punts
                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  Exactly.

                  It's batting pitches everywhere these days.

                  Look at this WC and we've had more than twenty five 300+ scores and the Australian pitches are supposed to be seam and swing friendly.

                  1. The Machine
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 1 month ago

                    Not everywhere. Quite a few australian and newz pitches hardly see such scores. Plenty of pitches in England and sa too

    2. Siva Mohan
      • 11 Years

      good.. not overrated.. a legend in the making..

      1. The Machine

    I have been meaning to get Silva in for ages but always had other stuff to do. Now I need to get rid of Forster. Is Sanchez or Eriksen to Silva worth a hit or just hope he doesnt go mental against Palace?

      I think it could be worth a hit..

      I think you need to get him, eriksen the most expendable of those two

    2FT and 0.6ITB

    Thoughts lads and ladies?

    Panti (foster*)
    Terry Clyne Bellerin* Lescott PvA*
    Hazard Sanchez Eriksen* Silva Boyd
    Austin Kane Aguero*

    Not happy with any of the *

    a) something boring like Pva -> Naughton
    b) Aguero to Bentekkers
    c) Eriksen to Ramsey
    d) Other??

      Something boring for me, not many options and PVA has a blank
