Interesting point made yesterday about the Mata to Fabregas transfer by Wakey
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2014/08/18/the-scoreboard-gameweek-1-monday/?hc_page=19#hc_comment_7974684Open ControlsI agree...the transfer looks like a no brainer...Mata will most likely fall by 0.1 this gameweek(maybe even 0.2 on Sunday before United play) and judging by Cesc's transfers in, he is definitely rising by 0.2 over the gameweek (maybe even 0.3 on Sunday) so that could be a potential swing of +0.5 in team value which is massive early on in the season
Open Controls
What if mata gets a double figure haul and fab finishes on 2?
Open ControlsAnything can happen I agree, but Chelsea are the better team with the easier fixture
Open Controls
Then you lose some points. If it goes the other way you gain some points. Simple
Open ControlsPoint is anything can happen, with all the knee jerks I've witness over the last 24 hours Fabregas is just as likely to lose 0.2 next week
Open Controls
n00b question, how does Mata's value drop to 8.9/8.8 rule out Silva/Ramsey/Cesc/Gerrard/Walcott/Ozil? If you've bought him for 9.0, you surely have 9.0 to buy one of the others, right? Slightly confused with all this value talk now.
Open ControlsNope if he drops in value, you can't transfer him out at the initial value...You will have to sell him at a lower value
Open Controls
I disagree with dropping Mata for the premise of getting him back later. He wont have any easiee fixtures and FTs are too valuable to just keep using them by switching to who scored higher between them in 1 gameweek
Open ControlsBut surely you cant ignore the better team and the team value?
Open ControlsI know team value is quite important at this stage but I believe that FT are the tools to make your team better by being ahead of the game like getting players just as their team is set for a good run of fixtures etc. More or less you plan for the upcoming gameweeks using evidence from previous ones instead of just chasing points. But thats just me
Open ControlsThanks for the advice 🙂
Open Controls
I haven't got time for United to improve. They looked poor on Saturday and I'm sure they will struggle against Sunderland too. I want Saturday to come so I can lose Mata for one of the many better options we have already seen. I can't risk missing out so early.
Open Controls
Fab 1 -0 Hazard we shall see how this ends come GW 38
Open Controls
So tempted to ditch Mata. Two away games next, and Sigurdsson has two plum ones. I could make the switch then in two weeks switch back to Mata if he's hot or Sterling for the uptick in fixtures. Could be too fickle though.
Open Controls
Bruce or Bartley to a 4.5 and who???
Please and thanksOpen Controls
Started with Coutinho thinking he'd be a nice differential, but now I'm regretting not having Sterling. Would it be worth a -4 to go Felipe Luis > Clyne and Coutinho > Sterling? Or would Fabregas be a better option than Sterling? My other midfielders are Sigurdsson, Ramsey, Eriksen, 4.5.
Open Controls
If Newcastle managed to give City a good game, Liverpool have every chance of winning against them this weekend. I'm looking forward to watching it.
Open Controls
to be honest in that game..City weren't poor (I mean not that poor) and Newcastle played well..
Open ControlsWe never needed to get out of first gear. Zaba or Sagna should start, Mangala be out to impress if he gets his debut amd Aguero has had another full weeks worth of fitness n training.
3-1 CityOpen Controls
Contemplating my second hit of the week. I want Fab vs Leicester and I don't want Mata stinking out my team with a two pointer vs Sunderland.
Open Controls*Dodges knee*
Open ControlsDid you see United? They were dire. I can't guess what will happen at Sunderland. Whereas Chelsea and Fab are on fire from the off.
Open Controls
Do it
Open ControlsMy finger is hovering. Chelsea will make mincemeat out of Leicester.
Open Controls
So many bandwagons and knee jerks after just one game......enough to make me think maybe I am wrong for not cosidering them!!!
Open ControlsFab is not a bandwagon. Sterling is a bandwagon. Siggy is not a bandwagon. These are my thoughts regarding the bandwagons.
Open Controls
How about we list and coubt how many good picks we had so far and how many bad ones ?
Ill go 1st
Good picks:
Chester
Siggy
Ramsey
Costa
Bad picks:
Jones
Bojan
Wait and see:
Hazard
Cahill
Mata
Rooney
Debuchy
FerdinandOpen Controls
Need some thoughts here please. Thinking about going from Silva to Fabregas at least for GW2 since Chelsea are home to Leceister and Silva has a tough match against Pool. Thoughts? Also could go Sterling to Fab.
Open ControlsYeah Innsie I paid for my lack of bullocks. Aguero captain gw3 will hopefully make up for it 🙂
Open Controls
😀
Open Controls
Am I the only one that thinks Sterling can get points vs City? They didn't look good by any means vs NEW...
Open ControlsOf course he can. Expect an open game
Open Controls
City at home is a different animal though. Still, I'd be surprised if Liverpool didn't score
Open ControlsI'm giving Eriksen another chance this week, so I'll be gutted if sterling does get decent returns
Open Controls
i had to take a 4 point hit. i couldnt resist putting in siggy for hendo with the fixtures he has coming up and clyne in for lovren because he looks like a real goal threat... he created plenty of chances for southampton against liverpool. and the saints have brom at home whilst liverpool have city away. was it a good move?
Open ControlsYes a great move. Siggy will rise and rise and rise and it's best to get him early. Hendo unproven as a points earner.
Open Controls
Rooney (C) this week.
Don't shoot! Hear me out
My reasoning is the following
-Manchester United are considerably better Away than at Home based off from last season. (vs Swansea is an example)
-Rooney is the focal point of the United attack
-Is on penalties
-Has a spring in his step with being made captain, was proven with his pre-season and the goal vs Swansea with a shite United performance
-Van G will not have anything less than a win against SunderlandOpen ControlsHe will, coz they won't beat Sunderland! !
Open Controls
Jovetic replacement? Nothing in the bank
Open ControlsI'm in the exact same situation myself. Currently leaning towards saving the FT this week, which gives me another week to scout replacement options and be able to upgrade him without a hit.
Open Controls😯
Open ControlsReckon he's back to the bench straight away?
Open ControlsCheers guys. Only problem is I also have shitters like Young and potentially Luis. Should I bench Jovetic this week?
Open ControlsNah I guess if you have him you have to play him.
Open Controls
Hold for one more week. No-one stands out yet. Remy and Gomis could be good picks soon, or you could use the rolled over trade next week to increase fundage
Open ControlsZamora
Open Controls
Ah yes Remy, forgot about him. Looked dangerous didnt he....
Open Controls
None. Find 0.5 for ADe or bony.
Open ControlsHold
Put Gomis and Steven Fletcher on your watchlistOpen Controls
Until I hear he's not starting I'm saving the transfer.
7 penalty area touches, 5 shots, 2 key passes... This is great value for £8mil.Open Controls
I'll give Jovetic another week... Which gives me a benching dilemma... 😉
Play one:
A) Jovetic (LIV)
B) Hutton (NEW)
C) Caulker (tot)
Gotta still be Jovetic eh? 😆Open ControlsA 🙂
Open ControlsA
Open ControlsI'd bench Hutton, AVL were maddeningly inconsistent at home last season.... No Clean sheets in this game i would predict
Open ControlsA ya dill
Open ControlsCheers all 😆
Open Controls
Gotta be A.
Open Controls😆 Just double checking.
Open Controls
If you could pick 3 strikers for GW3 onwards out of the following, who would you pick?
Rooney Sturridge Kun Costa?Open ControlsDepends if Kun is fit... which is like... never 😉
Open ControlsToo tough to say now, Rooney would still be there for the good fixtures. The rest need another week to decide I reckon
Open ControlsRooney, Costa and whoever's not injured 😉
Open ControlsAguero / Rooney / Costa
Open ControlsI'd say Roo/Kun/Costa but have a look at Studge's fixtures after gw3...Tempting indeed
Open ControlsCosta , Rooney & Kun.
The Utd / City home & away rotation is amazing, because it picks you captain for you each week.Open Controls
No.
Open ControlsNah
Open ControlsYou have way too much Mata hate. It's blinding your judgement and leading to poor advice for others
Open Controls
I don't hate him at all. Lovely bloke. Just a poor signing and a poor player for us or any top club.
Open ControlsAlso fancy that comment from a guy who hasn't brought Ramsey in.:)
Open ControlsMy comment has nothing to do with my squad or transfers. You shouldn't be advising others to take unnecessary hits.
Mata to Ramsey for free? Yeah sure you'd consider it, but a hit is ridiculousOpen ControlsNo, it's not. Mata is set to drop in value this week while Ramsey is set to rise. Not to mention the fact that Mata has shown no form whatsoever this (pre)season and Ramsey is Ramsey. It's a no brainer. For me it seems like your comment has everything to do with either your squad(Mata) and/or your hate for Ramsey.
Open Controls
He was player of the season two years running for chelsea!
Open Controls
negatory

@TheHolyTrinityFreak
Looks like big 3 top wasn't the best after all 😉
Mids heavily outscoring the forwards... 😛Open ControlsNot really, I've ended up with 71 points with this lot!
DDG
JT/Chester/Moore
Ramsey/Mata/Siggy/Mutch
The Holy TrinityOpen ControlsI got 80pts with the big 3. I'd imagine strikers will be more consistent with returns.
Open ControlsExactly, and better captaincy options obviously
Open Controls
Would love some thoughts on Tadic. He looked dangerous on the left.
Open Controls
Seems to be getting a lot of attention after his game and rightly so. Definitely on my watch list.
Open ControlsI liked what I saw vs Liverpool. Am thinking of going Marney to Tadic and play him as my 5th mid. Leaving Bojan on the bench. Worth a shot?
Open ControlsI think it's worth a shot and a nice differential though i'm a staunch 3-5-2 man myself so i might be a bit bias towards that formation. I think Tadic will only get better as the season goes on and gets used more used to the league.
I also have Bojan who i'm keeping for now and not playing, it doesn't look like he'll be dropping in price this week and with any luck he'll find his rhythm and will become a viable option to play if there's any injuries to the mids.Open Controls
Really wanted to hold on to Mata but couldn't resist it. Mata > Fabregas done.
Open Controls
I have silva sterling mata ramsey
Im thinking silva -> fab is a decent switch looking at city fixtures?Open ControlsI really want some Chelsea cover at back and currently have Terry. I'm tossing up whether to go
Terry > Clyne and Begovich > Courtois and pocket .5 for a rainy day and still have a Chelsea player at back. Am i mad?
I know Jose says Courtois isn't nailed on but surely he's just trying to appease Cech in saying that.Open Controls
Young > Fabregas and
Sturridge > Pelle ??Open Controls
I’m still scratching my head wondering how Baines and Mata Hazard can get me just 5pts! Somehow though I don’t feel the need to ditch them.
Open Controls
ditch Baines wait for better run of fixtures. Keep the other two they'll come good definitely
