Sterling!
Open ControlsToo much coin tied up in the backline. Downgrade Cole to Shawcross or Cameron and then upgrade Pienaar to Felliani and Pog to Berba
Open ControlsSounds good to me. Pie to Fellaini isn't a priority though so don't do it for a hit, especially since Fellaini will sit out a game soon.
Open ControlsYeah this could be a few week project for you. Consider downgrading hangeland also!
Open ControlsYou don't have a genuine bench fodder for the midfield, like a Guthrie or Sterling. Michu and Nolan are pricey alternatives, praps downgrade one of them also!
Open ControlsSound advice.
Open Controls
Pog to Berb and Cole to ?
Open Controlsthe midfield always gets the highest scores, followed by the forwards line. you have too much spending on your defensive line, make cheaper replacements within Cole, Baines and Hangeland. You will always find decent replacements for much less so you can save for your midfield and forward lines. for example Olsson and Shawcross are good mid price replacements, and the Westham back line is so strong with price ranges between 4 to 5. if you managed to get more than 4 transfers I recommend you play your wildcard now
Open Controls
Bench Morrison (CHE) or Sterling (WIG) this GW?

Is now a good or a decent a bad or depends on time to do a Wildcard in the grand scheme of things..?Open ControlsI wouldn't worry about past points. I'd look at your potential for future points.

Morning fien Sirs,
2 FT's this week but not convinced on what I should do...
Bego - Foster
Baines - Clichy - Demel - Davies - Gorkss
Cazorla - Oscar - Ben Arfa - Walters - Maloney
RVP - Aguero - Lambert
Considering doing
Aguero + Barfa/Oscar > Jelavic + Silva
What you reckon?
TaOpen ControlsAnyone else having the problem of transfering players in, who do nothing while you own them but when you sell them, they go back into form?. As it has happenend on numerous occassions this season. For example, I've owned:
- Bale the whole season apart from-GW4-6(2 goals 9 baps)
- Hazard GW4-6(no assists/ goals), then 9, 9, 5
- Felliani GW6-9 (3 points), then goes onto 5, 15, 13
- Tevez whole season apart from GW6-10- (25 points), but now I've transferred him in 2, 2
- etc
I know patience has been an issue with me, which is now making me reluctant to make any changes.Open ControlsI think you have to decide who you think will perform well and stick with them. Easier said than done.
Open ControlsYep, I've got a similar problem now with Pienaar and Michu who I think will be outscored by Feliani, but with my form this season, he'll probally get a yellow and then miss Norwich, while Pienaar and Michu rake in the points.
Open Controls
Optimistic about this alternative front line of Rooney and Aguero to the more common RVP+Tevez. Had Rooney stuck away that Penalty last week, it would almost look peachy.
Course, Aguero could get rotated this week if he plays midweek, thus is the high risk/high reward you get with him. I'm cautiously positive though that Mancini won't drop the striker in form who alongside Silva makes City tick.Open ControlsI think Rooney is more the concern. Aguero will come good soon
Open ControlsRooney is more of a home form player since last year, at home his stats are more impressive then RVP's!
Did okay this weekend, but in general a bit naff away from home, ala last year.
Would not be too worried about his injury, was tweeting about one direction Saturday night. Odd bloke.Open Controls
Could be a popular switch for the January WC!
Open Controls
Morning Y'all,
Well, after such high hopes for this weekend, it was almost grotesque. Every well owned player seemed to do something, except for the ones I hold.
Please convince me my team is still ok on paper and I should hold my nerve:
Foster
Baines - Hughes - Demel
Bale - Valencia - Pienaar - Ramirez
RVP (c) - Ba - Tevez
(Henderson) Noble - Cameron - CuellarOpen Controlsyou need some work on your plan, the backline is good, Bale is a key player and second or third highest midfielder last season, RVP is exceptional, but lets take a look at the rest.. since RVP came to united this means Valencia's role will be downsized since he was a saviour last season when there wasn't much stardom at the frontline.. Pienaar is a good choice but is not currently in form, but I recommend you keep him for the next GWs since Everton are having a good run of fixtures and he is still a great play maker.. Ba is injured yet still a good long term choice, Tevez is one of the best but with 4 top class strikers at City beside attacking midfielders like david silva and nasri + playing champions league, so this means rotation is usually expected, so in my opinion get a regular squad player that even scores or assists a little less and save some money for midfield and still get a scorer in form. My recommendations: get rid of Valencia, Tevez, Ramirez, and I'm sure you will find tons of alternatives
Open Controls

OtherOpen ControlsAnd yet again a keeper is raking in the transfers. Jaaskelainen to hit 5.2 in no time. 😯
Open ControlsMy goalkeeping situation really has been a F up this season.
Foster's absence this week means I've had 3 GWs without a playing keeper in total now.Open ControlsCrazy when he has Tottenham, Man Utd, Chelsea and Liverpool in 4/5 games. But, when you can get a clean sheet vs Man City, I guess anythings possible.
Open ControlsYeah, I was considering Jussi > McCarthy to save up money and play him for the DGW then play Bego until the WC but if he keeps making cash and keeping cleanies it'd be stupid. Plus McCarthy injury of course.
Open Controls
Those Jussi / Bego owner such as yourself are laughing all the way to the bank 🙂
Open ControlsI cashed in on Juusi (for Tremmel), I bought him at £4.5m and hoping to get him back in the January WC.
Open Controls
I just sold him for Tremmel...

Not sure what changes to make?
Foster / Federici

Open ControlsI'm waiting another week or two for that I think. It'll probably coincide with me shifting Tevez.
Open Controls
Cant decide if the do the following transfers, any thoughts?
Cazorla to Fellaini
Ba to Suarez
My team:
Bergovic - Ruddy
Hangaland - Shawcross - Simpson - Cuellar - Clyne
Hazard - Bale - Cazorla - Michu - Sterling
RVP - Berbatov - BaOpen ControlsWhat is the total value of everyones teams at the moment and everyones rank?
Open ControlsWest Ham snippet: Tomkins(4.2) form is now excellent, and he should keep his place.
Open ControlsDo you reckon Demel will get 90 minutes next game? I saw he was subbed on for 20 minutes last game, so I'm thinking he's ready to go and is first choice?
Open ControlsHe should. However, BFS is proving a law unto himself, this Season. Can't argue with his results, though.
Open ControlsI'm in the position of having double-up of both West Ham and Stoke defense next round. Thinking Bego + Demel to spread the risk and hope for save points. Maybe just double on West Ham?
Open ControlsNo. Look at the fixtures. I know it sounds crazy, but I have doubled on Reading. 😉

Current team, how am I looking? Knee-jerked Pienaar -> Fellaini on Saturday.
Bego Fossi
Baines Riise Cameron Demel Davies
Cazorla Hazard Sterling Michu Fellaini
Berba RVP Ba
I have 0.8 in bank and 0 FT. My current plan is Riise -> Rafael after this GW (Riise has SUN this GW so hoping Rafael won't rise by 0.2 and I can do it after for free). Thoughts?Open ControlsI've seen a lot of "Mata is better than he was last season, he is the new Silva" sort of stuff..but I can't understand the with Silva.
It's not as if Silva was a class above (FPL wise) Mata in 2011/12. Last season Silva had 6 goals and 17 assists in 2801 minutes, Mata had 6 goals and 16 assists in 2516 minutes.
Either way, Mata is a freak. 7 goals and 10 assists in 11 games since his rest.Open ControlsI think they will score similarly all season, closely followed by Cazorla. Bale will score the most though IMO
Open ControlsI think this year Mata is looking far better than Silva from an FPL perspective now that he is getting forward and into dangerous goal-scoring positions a lot more. Silva's never really looked a goal threat.
Open ControlsI think Silva's goal-threat depends on the team's shape. Earlier this season he was playing a little further forward and was looking a little more threatening. It's also questionable whether Mata will keep his advanced position all season.

Missed alot of football this weekend. Can anybody tell me, did the following players look dangerous/on form:
- Ramirez
- Ba
- Pienaar
- Tevez
- Valencia
They are in my squad, and on paper they comprise a decent set, but I'm worried other alternatives are now coming to the fore.Open ControlsI watched both the United a City games.
Tevez looked decent. He had a golden opportunity but didn't finish it. He was coming wide into the channels and also playing ahead of Aguero at times. I wouldn't be in a rush to sell him unless the general consensus is that he won't play.
Valencia also looked pretty solid. Scholes was pinging the ball wide to him at every opportunity and it took a good defensive performance from Villa to keep him from getting into more dangerous positions. The interplay with Rafael looked particularly dangerous.Open ControlsValencia received 39 passes in the final 3rd, most of all players this week. Sure that doesn't equate to points, but you know he is heavily involved in attacks for the most potent side.
No one wants to risk buying a player that hasn't scored double points the week before.Open Controls
Cazorla>Valencia. Nor(A) might be the game. No you dont get it, THE game.
Open ControlsValencia has been really poor recently and off form, don't bother with him and am a United fan
