    Hull are linked with a 9m move for aboubakar. Would be an amazing signing and I for one would be happy with that as a better replacement for long. If aboubakar joins then he is in my team, insane amounts of pace and good finishing and scored 16 last season in ligue 1 and is still only 22. I hope we sign him!

    Damn.

    All this gameweek has done is to revive some of the pre-season dilemmas I was wrestling with but throw a week's worth of data suggesting I got it wrong in my face.

    I really wanted Fabregas before the season started but something had to make way as it's not possible to accommodate everyone. The question is whether to laugh off any possible transfers as knee-jerk nonsense or assume that GW1 was representative of the next few weeks in which case it's a sage move.

    If I had someone dodgy to get rid of it would be simple but I'd have to lose Mata/Hazard.

    Price changes and Fabregas' pedigree make the transfer more attractive, the use of a FT and loss of another class player make it less so.

    It is looking rather like Fabregas is a better player playing in a better team than Mata though. πŸ˜•

    Damn.

              Well, I am just calling it as I see it. Tbh, I was a bit shocked when I looked up his History - I thought it would be much better.

                Worth bearing in mind that when he first started playing regularly for Arsenal he was only in his late teens - he's come a long way.

                That's fair enough, I'm content with Ramsey and I'll be looking at Sterling once the next couple of fixtures are out of the way (I only have so many knees to jerk!)

        Cesc is a much bigger goal threat than Silva, the problem is he plays deep and will get limited shots on target.

        If he played in the hole, he would be a must.

      I was very concerned about having to go Fab over Haz, but found comfort in that Haz hasn't looked 100% fit and could use some games to find his feet. Luckily I was right - at least for now. Still feel I will do the Fab > Haz trade at some point.

        Well this is it, I don't really want to lose Hazard as I'm sure over the season he'll be worth it, the trouble is how long do I have to wait for that to be true. It's a bit like the Ramsey/Sanchez thing - I chose Ramsey and am sitting comfortably. For now.

    So I've got Mata and Giroud. I'm thinking it's crazy to dump Mata after one GW, fixtures are great, so I think I'll eat the price drop for now.

    Giroud on the other hand, if he's going down I think I'll get rid for a free. I'm thinking Adebayor as a replacement. He's nailed, on pens, got decent fixtures. Dzeko has a rotation threat and fixtures aren't that bad. Bony has transfer rumors hanging over his head.

          Agreed.. IF i decide i need to free up some cash from my forward line(too expensive making it unbalanced) il swap Sturridge for Adebayor and Young for Sterling. and in a few weeks swap Eriksen for Fabregas/Hazard/whoever

      the problem with Mata is that Utd midfield is shit... he drops too much in MF... I won't invest in mata, no matter who they play against... jus compare it to city or chelsea... you will see silva and fab in much more advance role than mata...

        Remy looked -great-, I agree with that, but he's got transfer rumors hanging over him + QPR have always struggled for goals... he's a HUGE punt and his price class is bad news if I ever want to get Aguero or Sturridge.

          That's the downside I guess! I just go around touting all these statistical table prospects, forgetting all about their negatives πŸ˜†

          It is a huge risk, agreed, but it could pay off if you take it. Adebayor's stats are horrible. Use the same table Ctrl/Cmnd + F and sort by each column. I didn't see him play though, and stats don't always tell the full story. If he looked good during the game, then I'd get him. If not, I'd prefer Dzeko. Looked dangerous against Newcastle, and they are at home against Liverpool. Then, they have Stoke at Home again after that.

    It appears Vargas will be one, whilst Fer is also strongly linked. The Fifa reference I hope may be about Remy. I'm not sure regards the whatsapp reference, possibly to do with Isla's work permit arrving.

    Hazard to Cesc and using the freed up funds to do Terry/Cahill to Ivanovic?

    on a serious note thought Chelsea looked awesome for 20 minutes with Fab running the show but looked very suspect at the back (Terry in particular) which better teams will take advantage of. Costa didn't look all that - glad the penalty wasn't given - whilst 9 times out of ten it will he clearly just left his leg dangling and fell when he felt contact rather that just hurdling the keeper and scoring which would have been easy

      Mata to Cesc seems popular. Some even doing it for a hit.
