Meet the Manager #4 – Richard Clarke

many will be...

Definitely not me. Aguero or Salah

Fortune favors the brave. Good luck.

You have my sword.

Me. And I feel like a traitor doing it.

Liverpool play Huddersfield

Man City are at home to Burnley

Aguero because fixture

This is a tough one.

I don't have Aguero and won't be bringing him in. Burnley have only conceded max 1 goals in the last four fixtures. I think they've turned a corner and will frustrate City. Max 60 for Kun also looking forward to Shakhtar away.

Liverpool assets must be considered. I'll be transferring in Mane - he's one of my main candidates. Robertson also in my mind as a differential - CS nearly guaranteed and an assist is not out of the question.

I'm half tempted with Wilson as a differential - SOT (h) could be juicy.

Hazard is a tough one - if Utd are a shambles that day then he could get a 20 point haul! But.. we all know Mou gets up for the big games and if he is still there it wouldn't surprise me if they ground out a win.

Mane or Hazard for me..

Laca(C) here, form and fixture

Who pays the professional ff players in US? There are pros here who earn money from it by doing YouTube videos for ad revenue, or one guy who earns through Patreon.

Of those, A.
Not sure about AWB and brave going without Aguero?

Quite like A

A. You need someone from MCI

C

C. I would get mendy/Robbo over Trippier personally

Oops reply fail for above 🙂

Is he not playing out of position ? Leicester fixtures are nice I d keep

TAA longer term, guaranteed CS'. Can't see a Leicester CS i nteh next two and, Pereira's attacking stats just aren't that good despite being higher than Maddison's in the last two)..

Ultimately Maguire is the Leicester defender to get imo. He's so dangerous on sp and I regret my decision of getting chilwell, that 18 points haul still haunts me 🙂

Nice fiztures other fires to put out might be more important.

But clean sheets are a premium so may be worth shipping.

Pereria may not be nailed though. He is playing OOP because Gray is injured and due back after the break. Though now TAA is not nailed either.

Not necessarily, I like the look of Yedlin.

I’m looking at Yedlin Duffy and a Wolves defender around that price point.

Yes

How often would they play given you'll have a Wolves defender and probably 2 if not 3 premium defenders?

I prefer a West Ham defender because they cover some of Wolves harder fixtures

Thanks all

C by miles

C. Fixtures start to get rough soon

Go for it, team looks good for this week. Then with 2FT you could look to move out Kane and upgrade Fraser the following week.

Ryan has a very good run of games

I have same question !!

Yeah would rather have Bennett, but have both in my team so not really worried about getting rid of AWB

i agree; i think so. but at 4.1 he can just sit on my bench

I think you're right and if I didn't have both I'd do AWB -> Bennett. However I think he's still bench fodder worth keeping at that price - with every (increasingly rare) cs for Palace he still hoovers up the bonus.

And who knows? If they really get dragged into a relegation dogfight Hodgson might prioritise tightening up at the back

I don’t see any value in Bennett at all. Doherty has more than proved that he’s worth a measly 0.4m more than Bennett.

Also AWB should just be a good second or theirs bench option until his tough fixtures pass.

I think most people should focus their transfers on bigger “problems” than their cheapest player having a few tough fixtures.

Looks good, like that it’s something a bit different. Prefer Laca over Firmino though

IMO think B would be worth it.

I have A but considering to get Back. If Fraser fit, I would do A.

B

No. Not worth dumping Fraser or Ings for hit.

I’d just do Kane to one of the strikers you prefer.

Same boat think I ll go Doherty

I’m thinking no.2 after this weekend. Could you please answer my question below

Doherty. His bad fixtures only last 2 weeks, and who's to say he won't get a cleanie vs Spurs at home?

A

A

I wouldn't mind doing B. Robertson has very nice fixtures and the hit will be easily covered during those fixtures

That’s what you get for drinking on a Tuesday

Yeah I'd prefer the first two tbh

Oh.. Just hope it works.

Wow. Awful move.

Lots of people trying to get in Vardy and Mitro. But look good picks.

Must admit, it certainly looks a waste of two frees.

I have Vardy and Mitro, and personally they're the two I'm hoping for returns from this week. I might get Wilson in but it'll be at the expense of Kane.

what about Brooks for BOU?
i suppose its down to whether you think you will play him. i.e. do you have 4 big defenders or 3 decent forwards

Obiang 4.4

A seems most balanced as you get Pool, Citeh coverage at back and Pool coverage in centre.
perhaps make transfers so you can get Salah in for the next game if he riots.

A looks lovely.

B either.

Yes
Maddi

I’d rather save or do something more urgent

Yep. Too bad I can't.

I would

B if you don't have Mane. Otherwise C

If Richarlison doesn't remain up front where will Bernard play?

Huddersfield player.... yuk

Maybe do the same rotation with more notable player imo.

Just re read what you have said. Then in sure you’ll realise B is the answer. Fixtures are irrelevant when you’re picking a Huddersfield player.

B

What the IB does to people...

A chance, but like the late surge to Kane/sale of Aguero and Salah last gw there'll soon be articles and chatter about Liverpool's great fixtures etc. So doubt it

There’s a chance, but very slim I’d say.

Plenty will take him out but I doubt anywhere near enough for a drop considering his ownership levels and the fact he’s playing on of the worst two teams in the league.

solid

Nice

who is the 5th mid?

It's a nice side, but i'd try and squeeze Doherty in the defence, maybe trippier out, Doherty in and the change to upgrade Hennessey?

Defence kind of relies on Aurier remaining injured (no Trippier rotation), but looks fine.

A for sure

A but it is a risk

Reverse of that order imo

KHS currently but may becone HKS

agree

No, bsilva will find a way to troll you if you sell him
