Monitor – Adebayor and Eriksen

Get him out, he's had a good run but he's not worth 9.8 long term IMO

Depends what money you have to spend. No reason to move this week and next week is a very good time to have 2FT when teamsheets will be available before GW update.

Waiting for news. I'll likely do one of those moves if he's confirmed out tomorrow, but Silva not guaranteed fit either.

Check the captain poll.

I think City will out-score Liverpool but its difficult to choose between Aguero and Negredo

Villa are much better opposition than Cardiff..
But Aguero (c) is a risk because he probably won't play 90 mins and Negredo might have his points dampened by Aguero..

He is injured

Good bench fodder

As bench fodder, but you just missed Chester who went up to 4.0 this week
He's nailed and in a better defence

I have Chester who I agree is great value at 4m. I'm just looking for a player who will only come on in desperate times.

Don't see why you would do that move. Kun may not start and no reason why he's outscore negredo

A, but I would have it with a City defender.

A

A seems the popular choice around here. But I am scared of not owning Ozil or lukaku

Kolarov Ozil and Giroud for me. I think it's more important to have 1 expensive player like Ozil rather than spreading the funds through the team as it is easier to downgrade him if necessary

A, but with Coleman (and upgrade ki or navas, IMO)

Tough one. Save the transfer, or take a hit to downgrade Szces or luka or Cazorla to do negredo-> Kun

Save.

Nothing really to do...saving is dumb I guess, maybe take a punt on a striker and take Lukaku out depending on if you've soured on him or not?

What's your TV??

I don't think your TV is high enough to sustain that strikeforce

Jeez, that midfield is not that stellar! Is one of the XX a big hitter?

Drop negredo to Jrod and get a big mid

Not having Aguero is gonna make watching every City match a horrendous experience for you

Looks acceptable, Whitaker?

Fantastic.

Would you use wildcard now if it means you can have Zaba, Coleman, Kosc, Hazard, Silva, Özil, Aguero, Suarez and Giroud in same team, or save with the risk that you have to downgrade either Özil (Ramsey/Wilshere) or Zaba (Kolarov) when you wildcard.

To me it really comes down to this: Aguero and Özil now, or wait and lose Özil when Aguero's price rises.

Quiet. Noone is interested in these mad ramblings.

Which is why you should bever assist anybody. 😉

By the way:

Paranoia. In other news if you don't own a Suarez or an Aguero then the next best option according to the captain poll is Chamack #ftw

🙂

Get this all the time 😆

Taken to not helping linkless guys, that is, unless I clearly know they are not a rival 🙂

I know my rival's team off by heart so I think I'd be able to sniff him out if he starts posting

Mannone

If I had both - Boruc

One vote each, just the help I needed 😉

I'm probably in the minority but I'd say Mannone

Not enough info.

Slim for this week but he will get the occasional game especially with CL coming up

What about Ricky?

Lambert surely?

lol at forgetting the main man lambert

Still on pens? It's always been Rickie?

Reports that Lambert is leaving.

😀

As he's got a good case for having the highest expected points of any player this week, yes I'd captain him.

If you want to gamble and try and get a big jump up the rankings yeah. Obviously if it goes wrong you get a big red arrow

It's a huge risk. Would rather stick with the casual choice this season

You risk losing a lot of ground to all the Suarez owners, would be a bit different if Suarez had a tougher fixture.

Aguero's enough of a differential in your side atm, for all the thousands transferring in, there's loads who haven't done so.

Aguero is a good choice for the armband.

There is a case for him getting armband but it is risky as we don't know if he will play whole match or even start yet.

However, even if he comes on as sub, he is still capable of a good return.

I think the safe bet this GW is Suarez.

Think the fact that Suarez has a great home fixture and a much more likely chance of playing the whole 90 makes Aguero slighlty less worthwile. Plenty of weeks coming up though when captaining him will be a great way of gaining ground.

A lot of good points here folks.

B

Then make a plan on your WC that allows you to get one of them without a hit. Leave money in the bank.

I'm in this position and am still dithering.

Praying Suarez Lukaku Ade do the business and City game is like Palace last time.

Take the hit.

Cheers all. Thinking of saving now. Hope not to change my mind in 2 hours

Can I have a mention please?

"Millionaire Club (GW21) : 58-339 (565 entered) - Safety score is 66/68. 327 qualified atm"

Knockout once cross 1mil gw rank, or depending on safety score (don't understand the / in 66/68)?

Asking coz I had 66pts, no hits, gw rank was 1,003,119.... Am no longer in league, guess I am booted out already.

Can't argue with that. But Aguero will start 😉

Knowing my luck with City 16 will probably happen

Here's one he needs the minutes for these big games coming up.

When do you suggest he gets them? On the day of the big game?

He plays 60mins.

I agree, except the scoreline! I can't help but feel like you were adding number for the sake of it there, could've done it in less than 10 😉

Does Dzeko then get the same vote of confidence next week, and the week after etc. Dzeko knows he's third choice and that won't change by giving him one extra game.

Aguero has to come in at some point, he's their main man, if he's fully fit to start, he will do.

yep....im on wc but am keeping negrado this week and switching to ageuro after cardiff game

lovely logic, but i dont think it will happen 😉

man city have to cup games after cardiff match....plenty time to give ageuro starts......negrado n dzeko to start imo

Aguero is 2nd in the top scorers, ok he is very far behind Suarez but does that not come into it?

Yea pellegrini said he was only taking cup game off for precaution so he can play in the PL game

He is carrying a back injury at the moment but suspect he will play this weekend.

Oh it leaves 0 ITB.

Strikingly similar to mine - just going with Negredo, Aguero and Suarez ths week and leaving money for Rooney
Bardsley, Silva, Eriksen, Ki > Chester, Gerrard, Janujaz, Pozuelo to afford Roonpig dosh

I've thought about a flexible formation team before too. That actually looks like quite a decent team, you must have decent team value. I'd be happy with that. It does allow you to punt on Kolarov and Azpi which I think are well worth the risk.

Normally I'd be worried there would be no exit route if someone essential comes out that you can't afford. But you have two heavy hitter midfield slots, two heavy hitter striker slots and 4 midpriced defenders. You will have plenty of alternatives. The main thing I think you've chosen to miss out on is a premium defender like Terry. I think Terry will be a very good player to own. He may not break your strategy by himself though.

D, and hide if you do not have other City players.
