Who to get? Duff or Shackell?
-
This topic was just brought up a few posts back by Kiwi. Can always do with reading the current conversations running here in the DZ, mate 🙂
-
Technically, he asked how nailed is Duff. Im asking who is a better player to pick up. 😉
-
-
Would go with duff
-
duff for me...
-
-
Moreno>Blackett done. 😀
-
Your favorite player on the planet back in. Hope it works out for you, though I think that was a pretty foolish transfer 😀
-
Should've never sold him on me WC. Welcome back, Ty. 😀
-
So you bought him back because you regret selling him before the QPR game? I don't think thats a very good reason especially in light of LVG's comments about him being lucky to even start.
-
Oh dear. Here we go again....let it sit Ryan 🙂 Don't poke the hornet's nest that is MRU's loyalty to Blackett.
-
Just had to point out his thought process Just so we are all clear as to the reasoning.
-
😆
-
-
I sold him because I got goggle eyed and overthought it over the international break. Moreno, FFS. What was I thinking?
LVG's comments strike me more as man management, reminding the boy to keep his head out of the clouds as there are other options.
Also, this transfer makes sense for a few reasons.
1. Great value obviously.
2. Frees up cash for midfield and upfront. Can basically afford any player I want now.
3. If he does lose his place in the next few weeks, Chambers is a perfect replacement come GW8.-
So part of your justification is that you 'can always transfer him out'. Do you normally make transfers with this in mind?
-
That was only mentioned for worst case scenario purposes. And I just don't see that happening.
The boy is a machine. 😀-
I'm sorry but I'm finding your logic truly astonishing. 😆
-
That he's our best and fittest CB ATM and I don't see that changing as he'll only get better while our other CBs will inevitably continue to pick up injuries?
Come on, now. You know you're coming out of your WC with him. 😀
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
I like Tyler Blackett - hopefully he keeps his place 😀
-
You and me both, mate. 😀
-
-
Lol
-
Laugh it up, mate.
#foreverblackett
😆-
Give me one more game week and i may drop Dier or ivanovic for him for some cash.
Hope he proves consistant that would solve my how to get ADM, Rooney, Costa, Fabregas and aguero into the same team
-
-
-
-
Is Debuchy price protected?
-
No. I guess.
-
don't think so...
-
-
Just did Hazard -> DiMaria for my FT
Good to go for next week?
Krul (Foster)
Cahill Clyne Naylor (Chester Moore)
DiMaria Sterling Siggy Ramsey Hendo
Costa Rooney Naismith-
gtg 🙂
-
That's nice to hear! 🙂
-
-
Who will you bench?
Hendo? -
playing cahill against city?
-
-
Jesus - the fantasy UCL site is still down?! Ugh...
-
😯
was just about to make a team too 🙁
-
-
A) Burning transfers to fix a team (mainly budget players)
or
B) WC to fix the team and not use up valuable free transfers-
A - there will be a much more pressing time to use your wildcard later...
-
Its rather pressing at the moment with 3 budget defenders who have been dropped 😕 , can't imagine a situation where my team could be in a worse state.
-
Then B! Team NZ could use it 🙂
-
hmm - but with one ft you have enough to play 3 at the back
if you also have issues in offense (if i remember correctly you brought up some) - then maybe...-
Lamela, Naismith, Zaha. All are players that depreciate in value. Another blank or two and I'll be itching to get rid of them. All in all, its a wee bit of a mess and I can invisage a situation where I'm playing catchup
-
ah yeah, they are dangerous players to hold onto over long periods...in that case its probably best you play the wildcard - plus you seem to have thought about it and decided its a good idea to do it...important not to knee-jerk these things 🙂
-
Pushed the button. Nothing worse than playing catch up early in the season.
-
-
I traded lamela for chadli. assists looks like all he will get and not as good as fabregas for that reasoning
-
Certainly isn't worth 8m in comparison to Chadlii anyway. I wanted to do that trade last week but bottled it to make transfers elsewhere. Oh well, I have Chadlii now at least.
-
-
-
-
-
-
Unless there are a lot of hits involved I'd say A. But B isn't the end of the world despite what some say.
-
Wouldn't mind putting 3FT's to better use than to waste them on budget defenders.
-
I've got quite a few points from budget defenders this season.
-
-
-
-
Looking to save my FT this week so for GW 6 I can do these transfers:
Adebayor --> Aguero
Di Maria --> Dyer/Routledge
Thoughts?-
is that the Newcastle Jets?
not sure about getting rid off Di Maria...-
Sure is, I play for their youth team. Yeah I know it's risky but I think Aguero could get a huge haul against Hull.
-
NICE! 😀
yeah Aguero is the man...-
Thanks 🙂 Yeah I think he will be essential soon if he can avoid injury and stay fit.
-
-
-
-
Not bad. Di Maria looks dangerous, but I'm waiting to see if he will earn enough points.
He's likely to assist more than score and I might be preferred Ramsey over him.
-
-
Mannone, (Myhill)
Ivan, Clyne, Moreno, (Hutton, Wisdom)
Sterling, Fab, ADM, Zaha (Boyd)
Balo, Costa, Pelle
1FT, 0.3 in the bank
Should I:
A) sit on it, hope Balo get's his sh*t together
B) Ivan > Duff and Zaha > Eriksen for -4
C) Ivan > Duff and Balo > Rooney
D) Captain Costa
E) Captain Costa
F) A, D and E because really it's only taken me 4 game weeks to realize I should just put the damn C on Costa and the rest will work itself out. He's Suarez this year, automatic.
Plans in the near future to get Falcao after he gets a good run in.-
save ft
options D and E are really similar - hard to decide 😕 😉-
Main course of D with a side portion of E then.
-
Thanks, I'm just a tad aggravated it took me this long to figure it out so I figured I'd poke a bit of fun at myself. I've been "watching" Costa for the past 3 weeks…what was I waiting for!
-
-
-
Just logged in to see Downing on 8 pts! 😀
Making a shit week a tiny better-
Now that's a differential!
-
😯
wow great pick! 😀
-
-
Need some advice picking 3 from these 5 for the weekend
a) Terry (mc)
b) Moreno (liv)
c) Rose (WBA)
d) Bertrand (swa)
e) Stones (CPL)-
Rose Moreno (whm) Bertrand
IMO. -
Tough. Only one I'd definitely bench is Terry.
-
bench Terry - between Moreno and Bertrand for the other spot imo...
-
B,C and D.
-
-
What's the consensus on Hazard? Keeping? Or jumping on Fab/ADM?
-
Just dumped Hazard for ADM.
-
Is ADM likely to rise again anytime soon?
-
-
-
Please don't rise tonight ADM
-
Inevitable
-
Looks like I've got another day to talk myself into hazard to ADM before he rises
-
Forgot he rose Saturday. You might have a couple of days.
-
-
-
-
Morning DZ.
Thoughts on this UCL team?
Moya
Ramos Jedvaj Kurzawa Criscito Moreno
Bale Henderson Bellarabi
Ronaldo Balotelli
------------------------------------------------------
Patricio Messi Dominguez 3.0m
Only Messi on Wednesday 🙁
Which is better?
A. Bale+Balo
B. Hazard/Yaya+Benzema?
Thanks. -
Something more sexy than pieters to duff??
Forster Mccarthy
Naylor Pietrs clyne moreno moore
Boyd aDM fabs sterling siggy
Balo costa pelle
1FT, 1.2 -
Rickie Lambert likely to start this weekend? He's due a game surely.
-
Brendon said in the cup. Balo was hopeless tho. I agree he deserves a start.
-
-
Is anyone still carrying Sanchez? Or is he only for casuals... and me, now? Scored in back to back games, and his goal a few days ago was a nice one.
-
Think he's a v decent option who will score good points just price and fixtures putting people off. Waiting for Walcott personally.
-
-
Who is blackett covering for? Nailed on?
-
All our permacrocks. Nailed if you ask me. Everyone else will disagree.
-
He's not all that nailed IMO.
-
-
when shaw is ready for a start likely next week blackett will make way for him and rojo moving to centre half
-
Too much of a risk then
-
yeah definitely
-
-
Pure, unadulterated speculation.
-
as is the assumption he will play when there is a fully fit defence to choose from...
-
Hasn't been a fully fit defense to choose from all season and it's at the very least a month away as it stands.
-
true yeah but with a change back to four at the back i would think they will line up something like
rafael evans rojo shaw
could be wrong but theres certainly an element of risk..-
That's the most popular prediction for Leicester on Red Cafe.
-
red cafe?
-
THE Man United fan forum.
-
oh right had to google it ha cheers
-
-
-
-
I never expected Blackett to get a start in a back four when the season started. It's a testament to how good he's been. To think that Evans who's been our worst defender or Smalling who's not the best with the ball at his feet will displace him is a stretch to say the least. And then there's the very real possibility that we could go back to three at the back. I don't see much risk.
-
well mate u did bomb him out once already
-
On a WC. And only because I paid attention to comments like yours.
-
good man
-
You didn't notice apparently but he got CS points again this week.
🙄 -
saw the game mate just dont see the logic in buying last weeks lottery ticket
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
Morning dz. pretty happy with my gw. Didn't (c) costa which cost me 7 points but had a decent game week regardless. Wildcard was a success and barring no injury may just manage to save a transfer. Really want to do Naismith to Pelle the week after for qpr at home but will need to find the upgrade cash from somewhere. I guess the unexpected always happens.
-
best replacement for Debuchy? same or less money
-
A Southampton or Liverpool fella?
-
Clyne? already have Lovren
-
Bertrand
-
Well if cash is an issue either of these is great. I've gone fonte as he's done me well in the past and he's v good for bps.
-
-
-
Thanks guys, got a great start this year, in fact i don't know if I've ever done this well end of GW. Haven't had a lot of time to spend on here so I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something i was missing.
-
-
Risers: Schneiderlin Pelle Welbeck A Williams
Fallers: Diaby Obertan P Jones Sissoko Barnes Can-
how on earth owned Diaby? and Obertan? 😯 😆
took them a while to realise the error of their ways! 😀 -
No Siggy? 😯
-
Bloody Pelle, I want him cheap as possible next week. Better not rise again!
-
Not even 100% according to FISO and Siggy was over 200%
-
So there's no point even looking at fiso or tfpl for prices at the moment. Mis leading to the fullest. Are fpl just making up changes as the go along this year or is there a formula? Could it be a formula that includes points as well as transfers in and out?
-
-
-
Cheers AR.
-
Meh, inevitable. I wouldn't have wanted to move for them before the european games, but its annoying that the strikers are rising so fast 🙁
-
Dat Guy 😀
-
Lol at Can owner.
-
Lol at diaby owners!
-
-
There has to be a price algorithm for MC, CHE, MCU, LIV and ARS players otherwise how the heck did Welbeck rise?
-
-
How is Mata still f**king dropping!?
-
People straight swapping for adm is my guess.
-
People not convinced he'll keep his place and Di Maria will, I suppose.
-
Which is completely justifiable. Either him or RVP will be dropped this week if not the next.
-
It's gotta be Rvp, he's looked horrible ever since the wc Spain game. I've been a fan of his over the years and his form has been horrible to watch.
-
He was terrible last season as well. I agree that I'd rather he be dropped. Just not sure that's what will happen. Seems to be a bit of a love in between him, LVG and Kluivert. TBH I'd like to see both dropped and Januzaj play regularly. Shouldn't be playing reserve matches, FFS.
-
Well I put last season down to injury a lot but u still saw glimpses of good form like champs league ht. Since that wc game there's been absolutely nothing, barely even a shot on target! Looked completely off the pace. I'm undecided whether mata deserves to be drooped, he's hardly set the world alight but his scoring record is really good. Agree januzaj deserves a chance though.
-
-
-
-
-
People loosing confidence that he'll get full 90 minute games?
-
-
Pieters owners, what is the plan?
Stoke fixtures are too good to ignore, we might not habe any more info on him though..-
im sure he will be ok hopefully
-
Can we expect any oficial communication on this?
-
yeah id say so within the next couple of days hes 75% to play next game with a knock so couldnt be too serious
-
By Friday, I imagine. If not before.
I won't get rid unless he is confirmed out.
-

Silva to ADM
?? -
Which deadzoner are we all going to vote for in the scout picks? Or do we give a sympathy vote to Doosra for being a good sport last week?
-
Deadzoner be at a big disadvantage as lees people on to vote for him....
-
Not if we are united in who we vote for. Arvin is a classic example last week.
-
-
I quite unlike the scout picks system. Popularity contest, sort of rubbish. Just my view.
-
Meh, it is what it is. Nothing we can do about it.
-
True 😀
-
-
Another idea is we could all unite behind a more little known poster, if they have a good team then we in the DZ can lead by example and help them become the community champion.
-
-
Can't this be crowd sourced by just using a voting system, kind of like the captain's poll?
You could have a different community member make the poll each week by offering maybe three gks, ten def, ten mids, six fwds and then the community at large could vote and select the actual squad?-
Squads change though which I think is good. Previous champions actually asked the community for advice with their scout picks, thats how it should be imo. The current voting system is easy compared to polls as well.
Also with budget constraints everyone selecting a squad wouldn't work. Then things change during the week as well such as injury doubts etc. A real person managing it is the way to go really.-
Good points. Just went through the post and it does seem to favor the Dayzone and early posters.
-
I don't believe you need to put in an early post. The leader only has 6 votes so that can easily be eclipsed by a DZer now if they were to put a team in.
-
-
-
-
Happy to take any votes Ryan :p
-
You need to put a team entry into the hot topic so I can vote for you
-
-
-
So Stoke's defence, garbage or decent value?
-
they have a decent defence, the trouble is they like to concede one goal each game 🙁
-
Pisses me off, thats twice ive missed Bego's CS!
-
-
changes from week to week
-
Well at least they do have decent fixtures ahead. Thinking of getting a Stoke defender in.
-
-
They are not quite as good as the ManCity game, but not quite as bad as the Leicester game...
i still believe that they are decent value given their fixtures.-
were they that bad against Leicester really? 1 shot on target 1 goal from Leicester.
-
-
Shite
-
they're no Blacketts that's for sure.
-
Don't even mention him in the same sentence with those.
Sacrilege.
-
-
-
-
Activated my WC this week, how is it looking? still needs tinkering:
Begovic, Gilks
Clyne, Taylor, Duff, Wilson, Moore
Boyd, Di Maria, Sterling, Ramsey, Siggy
Pelle, Aguero, Costa
£0.5m in the bank to upgrade a defender/bego/gilks?
Or would you rather have Chadli + Naismith (plus 0.8 to upgrade defence) over Boyd + Pelle?-
nah then you have a benching dilemma each time...maybe get Forster instead of Bego? double up on soton is better than double up on stoke imo...
-
Ye thats what I think too. Yeah good point, any 5.5 keepers like De GEA or szez worth it?
-
not over forster, especially with his fixtures...plus you don't have to use all your budget, having 0.5 in the bank is always handy 🙂
that said you could do duff ---> shackell or wilson ---> bardsley, although both are probably unnecessary... -
DDG might be worth it with fixtures. I'm gonna persist with Krul/Bego though. Got a CS once and been 1 goal off one the other three times which bodes well even if it is frustrating!
-
-
-
No need to upgrade Bego. He can play every game up to GW13 without tough fixtures apart from Spurs away in GW11.
The defense looks a little cheap but you have an awesome attack. You've picked the defenders for the "cheap-def, expensive-attack" strategy though. Looks solid.-
Please have a look at my post right below this if you can, would appreciate it!
-
-

Thoughts on this trade? --- Happy to review your teams in depth if you answer this!!! -----
----- Fabregas+Wisdom > Boyd+Baines (using 2FT, 0.5itb) ------
It would leave me with this team for GW5:
Krul
Caulker Lovren Baines(c)
Siggy Tadic Ramsey Sterling
Rooney Costa Naismith
(Begovic // Chambers Clyne Boyd)
Logic being this:
- Would drop Fabregas at City anyways, and Baines would be my captain so worth the risk.
- Tadic (swa QPR spurs) has better fixtures than Fab (city VIL ARS) in the next 3 (and even beyond).
- Fab just rose so I gain 0.2 from him. My TV is at 102.1 so I can afford to get him back later even at 9.6ish if I want.
- The move frees up cash to upgrade Naismith to another big hitter (eg. Pelle vs QPR).
- Will use my GW6 FT on Baines>Ivanovic. Happy to take a hit on other necessary trades, but want a big def from now on.
Does this all make sense or am I crazy? 🙂 🙂 🙂-
Oh and getting rid of one of my "big 5" in midfield also gets rid of a selection headache, but with good defenders on the bench I still have solid subs.
-
I wouldn't drop Fab…he's consistent and it's all about the long haul. He's just dishing up the assists for Costa. Caulker needs to go though, in my opinion. I dropped him 2 weeks ago, QPR'd defense is trash. I'd focus on Caulker out, Pelle in some how. Tadic doesn't interest me much, I think Siggy's points are more reliable.
-
- Caulker plays Stoke at home next. Got to remember why we picked him at the start, and this is a great fixture, after which he will be on the trading block for me.
- Pelle would only come in to replace Rooney or Naismith, and both of those have better fixtures this GW. Looking at Pelle for GW6 or GW8 however.
- Tadic could easily have as many points as Siggy. Should have had a penalty vs Newcastle when Long was taken down by Krul, and several other assist opportunities. QPR upcoming too.
- I don't think Fabregas will get as much freedom against City. Watch the MNF analysis of him defensively to see that he'll be tied back more against City, if he even plays that is.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Mourinho go with a midfield like this vs City, as its similar to what he did last time to good effect and won.
Matic Mikel
Willian Ramires Hazard-
Pelle is hitting form, replace Naismith….Man U are going to start their engine so keep Rooney.
Tadic "could have" but doesn't. Wait it out.
Fab will play. If he doesn't I'll eat my shorts. Clean sheet, 90 and an assist and he continues to chug on.
-
-
-
-
You're overthinking it, Fabregas is fixture proof and Tadic hasn't proven to be a great fantasy option yet. Also don't plan transfers weeks in advance because it hardly ever works out like that.
-
I like to have a rough idea of what is coming up to be aware of issues I'll have with my squad ahead of time. Even if things don't work out at least I'm familiar with options ahead of time in case I need to act quickly to get early GW price rises for instance.
Injuries and stuff will always happen, but I try to have 2 strong bench players and don't mind taking a hit if things are a mess.
-
-
I don't think its worth it...since you have 2FT, might as well use one...wisdom ---> moore?
-
I've used the RMT tool and the way my team is setup Moore wouldn't play at all apart from GW7 vs Burnley. Wisdom has a good fixture (also Burnley) in GW6 so it seems a bit sideways and unnecessary. I'd rather maximize my points this GW even if it means using my 2nd FT.
The 2 FT's are what give me the freedom to get Baines in for one GW and he has a fantastic fixture. As captain it could really pay off. I could even do the reverse trade next week again if I regret it at only a -4 hit, which I'm happy to risk.-
As we've all learned….just Captain Costa and the rest will fall into place. The RMT tool doesn't take into account allot of the top point getters. It's just a guideline. I bet RMT didn't predict Sterling riding the pine this weekend.
-
Of course. I was thinking about buying and captaining Baines even before I looked at the RMT tool (only became a member today).
-
Thanks for the advice though, much appreciated!
Same goes for the other posters who replied 🙂-
And finally my best advice…don't listen to me because I still have not captained Costa yet….yikes!
-
-
-

-

ADM or Pelle?
to fill my front7 :
Ramsey Sterling Fab Siggy
Costa Rooney-
Pelle.
Fixtures, form, striker, 2.0 cheaper
-
-
I have both, but ADM ran the show on Sunday.
