    Ayling back at RB is pretty good. Resurrects him as an FPL asset

    Reckon rudigar is a shoein for cb spot under compatriot tuchel?

    Still have zouma, and considering moving to mitchell, and banking the cash.

      He was wanted by Rudiger but there's a lot of bad press coming out about the way Rudiger has potentially behaved of late. Feels risky.

      1. Hazz

        *wanted by Tuchel

      Actually got a price rise

      There is no logic, there is no reason.

      They obviously just apply filters to thresholds depending on when they choose to adjust.

      I just want to not be losing money on Mitchell...

      GW14 ownership: 1,196,474 - price 4.0
      GW20 ownershp: 1,430,029 - price 3.9 (net transfers in of 14k, 102k, 115k and 57k in the last 4 GWs!)

    Where are all the sheep that said "AnToNiO wIlL nEvEr PlAy BoTh GaMeS" for the DGW? Or he would never play full matches consecutively...

  16. Seamy
    • 12 Years

    Would you do the following transfers for -4 this week or wait and try to spread it out over 2 GW?
    Che Adams -> Kane
    Coufal -> City Defender

    Soucek and Coufal to haul now they are sat firmly on my bench!

    1. djman102
      • 14 Years

      Same here. Time to hide behind the C/Soufa

    2. Dybala10
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      And Dallas. I'm expecting it 🙁

  18. thepancakeman123

    3 years, 2 months ago

    Who's the correct person to replace De Bruyne with? I currently have Salah, Fernandes, Grealish and Soucek. I also have Kane. I'm basically torn between Son and Sterling.

    1. Seamy
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Son. Not a fan of the Sterling pick

      1. thepancakeman123
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I'm just not loving the idea of having no City midfielder/attacker given their fixtures. Son is probably better long term though I would agree.

      Son and double or Triple up on City defence
