Akers Just a quick reminder to those competing in the Paddy Power Cup V – Round of 16 that the Quarter-Finals will take place over Gameweek 21, and not Gameweek 20, the deadline for which is tomorrow.
The Last 16 results will be published later in the week, along with the all-important Quarter-Final fixtures.
Ah, got to love the FF cup. Going out to a guy ranked 1.4m thanks to a Reo Coker 2pt auto sub and even then by virtue of fewer goals conceded after we drew 37-37 and both just scored one goal
F*ck you Adam Flynn
What do you think of this way out idea to gamble huge on the DGW? ONE WEEK PUNT - WILL FIX IN WC.
Nani > VDV
BAE > Baines
Drenthe > Ferguson
-4pt hit
Giving me
Sorenson
Baines Hibbert Evans
Bale VDV Silva Valencia
Ade (C) RVP Sturridge
Subs: Vorm, Enrique Naylor Ferguson
Crazy.
Nuts just do vdv, bae in form and two home fixtures, drenthe will play i think
To my surprise it seems my crazy idea has been received as if it were a crazy idea. Lol, looking at alternatives. Basically the issue is I'm on 5 coverage (3 TOT 2 EVE) but I suspect my Drenthe is not gonna play and am not looking forward to being hurt by missing VDV.
any idea why helgusen missed last game?is he injured or what??
Due a rest. He's an old man.
Just rested, he's knocking on a bit, i suspect Warnock thought playing him at Arsenal wouldnt make any difference, he'll be back for Norwich at home.
cheers pal,you think hes a better bet than the Yak this week?transfering him in to afford baines
I wouldnt dare knock him, i had him in for a while and he was brilliant for me, just transfered him out for Morrison the other week only coz i thought Helguson might be rested a bit over christmas. I think hes a great shout for this week.
Rooney & Walters ---> Adebayor & Bale (free) leaves
Friedel
Caulkner - Evans - Shotton (Simpson, Vermallen)
Bale - Silva - Nani - Allen (Toite)
RVP - Sturridge - Adebayor (c)
Do i pull the trigger or take out vermallen for a hit!?
Please and thanks for any help
Larsson > Valencia
Nani > VDV
4 point hit, worth it?
Vorm (Stockdale)
jones,baines,r.taylor,brown,shotton
bale,donovan,vdv,silva,tiote
aguero,sturridge,ba
any suggestions
Depends on ur cash really.
You can change Brown to someone like Gallas or BAE
And then you need to get Ba out because he is going to ACON, so possibly Adebayor if you got the cash, but then if not would go Agbonlahor or Yak
did ma 2 ft already then brown and sturridge showed the knocks
yea wanna get Ba out have 0.6 in the bank
would have to take a hit or i could wait to get ba out
Away from the double week players are RVP owners on here playing him this week with the possibilty he may not play the whole match.
ummmm.... yes.
I knew vermaelen would getg injured...he always does. Lucky i didnt bring him in. 7.0 mill. Chist.
Evans > Gabbidon as i have no other defensive options for gw20..
Any other sub 4.5 Defender I can go with for the next few GWs ??
Is anyone taking a hit to get rid of Sturridge? I only got him in last GW and have Adebayor so no obvious transfer.
Have 2m in the bank by the way. Balotelli anyone?
thnks.. went with gabby as i found no other sound options.. and theres a n Evans price drop in the next few mins,,
At the risk of sounding uber thick but hey, you don't ask, you don't find out!
Let's say I captain Bale. He doesn't play his first dbl GW fixture and my vice is Ada'B. Bale does play in the second dbl GW fixture.
My question is, would Ada'B get the captain points for the first game and would bale get the second? Or, would you lose the points on the first and only get on the second game?
Ha. Does that make sense?!!
Whoever is the captain gets double points for both games unless they don't play at all which would cause it to switch to the vice captain, again for both games.
Lindegaard Vorm
Skrtel Richards Kompany BAE Simpson
Nani Bale Walters Dempsey Moses
Agbonlahor RVP Yakubu
This is what I'm looking to WC tomorrow.
Thoughts?
Meh.
I haven't looked at a possible WC team yet.
I'd probably take Valencia over Nani though and use the money to get Citeh attacking coverage.
Decent but Lindegaard is a no with rotation and utd injuries, how about hart and united defender instead
i think lindegaard is worth a gamble if he starts this week, as long as you have another gk who plays every week
i'm doing lindegaard & sorensen on my w/c
I would defo consider Jones...
Get Vorm out as his fixtures are shocking and Lindegaard is a stupid pick imo, worse than Ruddy.
Get an uber cheap defence as you only have 3 captain choices (Bale, RVP, Nani)
That frontline is not good enough. There is better value in Sturridge and Helguson that Agbon and Yakubu.
This is what I have come up with so far for mine:
Sorensen, Stockdale/Schwarzer
Richards, Senderos, McAuley, Gabbidon, Simpson
Nani, Mata, Bale, Dempsey, Moses
RVP, Aguero, Helguson
Nice.
Umph! That's what I needed! Someone to grab me by the balls and talk sense to me.
GKs - agree, focus on solid rotation
DF - I like Senderos and have him on the watchlist. However, Gabbi and McAuley are not for me. Simpson will be back up most weeks for me.
MF - same as you aside from Mata/Walters. Food for thought.
FW - Ade RVP and another for me perhaps
I think Aguero is too expensive, in the sense I'd rather get a better backline and balance elsewhere
Going to bed to ponder on life without Sturridge.
Bloody hell - my luck is so bad that if I bought the Kleenex company today people would stop shi*ting and wan*ing tomorrow.
Goodnight.
jones > gallas
walters >osman
anyone know anything about drenthe?
coz I'd like to only do walters > drenthe
Enrique > Baines for a hit. What do you think?
Vorm – (Krul
)
Jones – Enrique – BAE – (Naylor) – (Simpson)
Silva – Nani – Bale – Osman - (Dyer)
RvP – Ade – Sturridge
Should I do Nani to VDV no hit?? already have Bale and Ade
Also captain Ade right??
Vorm (Al-Habsi)
Jones, Enrique, Shotton, (Boyata, JEvans)
Nani, Mata, Bale, Walters, (Allen)
RVP, ADE, Sturridge
Hell yes, i would any day especially with the WC just around the corner.
go for it, you will only regret you didn't do it once the deadline hits
Boyata? Are you kidding me?
get him out of there i cant stand the sight of him.
will go out during WC, other priorities always pop up,never really needed him off the bench
anything here worth taking a hit? already done brown to bae
only two fit subs risky? probably one if Evans doesn't play.
Vorm
Evans(Inj?) | Kompany | BAE
Drenthe (Inj?) | Nani | Bale | Mata
Adebayor (C) | Sturridge (Inj?) | RVP
Ruddy, Brunt(Inj), Simpson, Enrique
id put enrique ahead of simpson on sub bench
SOMEBODY DELIVER A MESSAGE TO BALE AND VDV AND ASK THEM WHO WILL SCORE MORE FOR DGW
Is VDV likely to play both matches?
Really hard to say. Defoe is back and would be a decent rotation option, but then again VDV always wants to play and lets Redknapp know it. Doubt he'll finish either though.
2 weeks ago everyone here was slagging off Baines as a waste of space. Now everyone wants him in. A fickle game!!
David de Gea. What a waste of 20 million pounds. Lol. United could have bought Schwarzer or another experienced keeper and not have had 1/10th of the problems.
It'll be worth it in the long run.
Is Evans->Clark or someone else (4.9m or less) worth using my FT? Stuck with Drenthe for the DGW.
Vorm (Ruddy)
Enrique Jones BAE
Nani Silva Bale(v)
RvP Adebayor(c) Yakubu
(Evans Pilkington Simpson)
0.3m in bank
I brought him in this week....Ignoring Everton defenders.
just took a monster gamble on donovan. genius or stupidity, probably the latter!
i did the same
Right last time I'll ask, need a definitive answer chaps.
Richards > BAE or Silva > VDV
Both with Drenthe > Osman, already have Adebayor and Bale. Teams linked.
With wildcarding season nearly here, who is doing it straight away and who is biding their time?
personally not gonna rush into it. Might just wait till I really need to do it as right now team seems ok
doing it tomorrow myself
Planned to do it for GW 23, so not straight away. Will save a transfer next week too, so i have 2 frees before the dgw to take a couple 1 week punts.
GW 23 appeals to me, as it's nearer the end of teh transfer window so we know roughly how the new signings will affect the lineups. Also there's 6 games for which we get early line-ups for, which will come in handy. Change in fixtures for the big sides too.
Nice info
Possible wildcard team, do you think it's good?
Krul Lindergard
Enrique Cahill Jevans Caulker McAuley
Bale Dempsey Mata Valencia Moses
RVP Adebayor Aguero
Chesea have a very good run of fixtures. Why would you Transfer out Sturridge. I also think AVB hasnt got a clue about what hes doing. He plays suicidal football. Unless his defenders can run as fast as Usain bolt. this guy needs to get his shit together.
8 point hit worth it if i have this team?
Vorm, (Westwwod)
Jones, Hibbert, Enrique (Naylor, Simpson)
VDV, Bale, Nani. Dempsey (Tiote)
Adebayor, Sturridge, RVP
Ok...so I'm sure people have this question a lot but I've been away so do I captain Bale or Ade??So torn between the two...
