    How come it's so damn difficult to pull that trigger!
    Every year I lose lot of team value because I can't decide if I wc or not until midweek.
    Already lost on Williams, Brady, Giroud and Sturridge, tonight you can add Hernandez there and I still don't know if it's worth to wc now!

    I want injuries and bans to my team!! πŸ™‚

      Hang fire if you're still deliberating you held off for a reason.

      See how the new signings fit in after the next few GWs and pull the trigger - very few double price rises happening anyway.

      Don't WC for price rises, but getting a few in is important when you do.

      It's not too late. Players can only rise by 0.3 anyway. Sturridge and Giroud should easily do that so you can still bank the 0.1 from each if you WC. I reckon Yaya and Zaba have a good shout at 0.2 rises, Mignolet as well.

    Rogers reveals Moses' likely impact on Coutinho:

    "Victor can play anywhere across that front line, but probably his best position is on the left cutting in onto his right foot. That may allow Philippe more opportunities to play as that third man and be the connection between our midfield and front players. Philippe is a wonderful talent, he's a young boy who joined us in January of this year and has been fantastic. So hopefully that [Moses deal] will allow him to move inside, but there are going to be games where he'll play in a number of positions. That's the type of players we try to bring in - intelligent footballers who can play in a number of areas on the field - but Philippe will get the opportunity to play more in that No.10 role, which is probably his preferred position"

    Good news for Coutinho owners or are we sniffing a bargain in Moses?

      People forget liverpool and arsenal contended for the title only 3/4 years ago or so, i know other clubs have risen above them, but after seeing how dismal city have been, and chelsea looking clueless in their attack with no Drogba to bail them out...people have a set idea of what clubs are top and what will happen, and eventually that comes true by the end of the season...both arsenal and liverpool last season had such terrible starts but the best finishes of any team.

      So, if you do this, why have things changed permanently this season?

        Bonus points weighted towards clean sheets rather than assists. So I want to try going for goalscorers up front and defenders for top sides. And ignore pricey assist merchants in the middle.

      Arsenal apologise for the hold up with the deal, they had to get in the IT guy to show them how to type Ö for the contracts.

    Rumours about Benteke going round. Find it hard to believe, the mans just recently signed a new contract.

      He could have signed the new contract in order to increase his sale value for Villa (if they do sell him this window). Still can't see him leaving though.

    Although the number of done deals is not huge this window (and today) I think it's representing a transition period in world football- a couple of years ago, the best teams in England and spain were barca and united hands down. Now.... Who knows?

    Lineker on the BBC: "Mesut Ozil would be a terrific acquisition for Arsenal. Always rated him, but wonder why Real Madrid didn't and why Mourinho preferred Willian?"

    I think that I will make my decision about my WC completely dependent on the transfers tonight. If there are more than 3 players that I now want, I might just go for it.

      I was messing around when suddenly I found I had made 6 trades. I won't blame it on a computer glitch or booze. I just wanted some FF action for a couple of weeks πŸ˜€
