Scoutcast #384 – Is it time to move for Lukaku in FPL?

Still not convinced personally on his goal involvements. Still got the feeling he will assist the assister

Probably more nailed than others but doubt he'll play every game. Still a watch and wait for me

I only got Ferran Torres from City as he is cheapest offensive player so even when benched it doesn't hurt me as much. Also, hope that until they buy CF young Spaniards will be deployed to lead front line.

Great team to watch but can’t see any compelling FPL options for city

Agree

The ball just hits him and goes in the net.

This week

Not before the gw 3 deadline but propably before gw4

Hopefully not before Williams or Omobamidele drop to 3.9m - currently -82% and -92%

It was nothing mate, it was before the last game and he played and has been in training

Whatever you want to be honest.

I'd go A

White

Webster/Duffy for now.

Dier

I’ll be getting coady pretty soon as 1st playing sub

I'd go with Coady too from next week.

Coady rotates beautifully for GW4 and 5 with Ayling

Shaw

Still think it's Shaw.

Shaw.

James

Rudiger.

I'd look at Semedo from next week he's been getting forward a lot too but otherwise probably still Shaw for now.

Shaw until the fixtures swing

Better forget about any romantic notions about modern day top level club football. There are no more Le Tissiers.

"Oh-oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?"

As a Utd fan it hurts. City not willing to pay any fee though as per reports hope it stays like this.

I understand the attitude from some fans loyalty etc. But thinking logically what percentage of city and united fans picked the teams because they are/were winning. Most City and Utd fans are not from the area, country or in a lot of cases continent. So unless the fans whinging are local it is the height of hypocrisy IMO.

Hopefully he doesn't get murdered by some crazy person who loves United too much

Looks solid to me.

You can't make 2 transfers and be left with two transfers

Looks good.

Hmm, Sarr has some good fixtures incoming. I'm not sure on what transfers you're considering after the IB, but maybe get Benrahma in for Sarr for his games against CPL and SOU, then switch back to Sarr for NOR, NEW, LEE down the line?

I'd get Benrahma and roll the other FT

Cheers guys p.

Livramento will start , why wouldn't he?

Robbo & Liv should play

I'm not convinced Robbo will definitely start. Klopp has history with easing players back from injury and with Tsmikas playing more than adequately, he could easily start him again and reintroduce Robbo after say 60mins if everything is going well..

If you think you've got no other pressing transfers you can move TSI on if he doesn't lose his place v Chelsea he'll almost certainly lose it the game after. For that price though he can easily sit on your bench though while you deal with higher priorities.

Imo both Tsi and Livra will play

Robbo will be back, most important clash in prem so far for LFC!!
I am hoping Liva plays, but he is on my bench.
Tsimikas is great, and we may see more of him this year, but not in front of Robertson Carlos!!!

Hard to tell realy. My guess is that Robertson will play as it's a 'big' game. Maybe move Tsimikas next week and let it ride?

Barnes has the fixture to turn it around this weekend. GTG.

G2G

'Sacking off' sounds a bit suss to me.

Very good.
I sacked off Shaw for James but now thinking about bringing him back in alongside James. He would replace Ayling.
Id be dropping Greenwood to fund.
As regards your team structure, Think its James or Shaw for you.

Very good.

4.5 defenders are not there to be played every week. Just play the fixtures.

Thanks for nothing noobs

Hard to say really what will Rodgers come up with, with so many injuries and Perez suspension.

could be Iheanacho on right or Albrighton? Barnes gets stay of execution?

I signed up for the tournament today, but not sure if I'm on the list yet, I will be worth 70m

I'm not but there's sense is chucking him for a playing defender, especially if people have starters liable to rotation, like James or Cancelo.

If he was 4.1 probably not but at 4.2 you can bank the extra 0.1m which can be handy. If you have nothing else that needs changing then I think Tsimi to Livramento makes sense.

If you have cover on your bench, he could be useful at Christmas and maybe the odd other time.

If you bought at 4m, it's about knowing you can get the .1m before everyone sells and that's lost.

No because I have Ayling as cover and I suspect most people have. It's not worth wasting a transfer on him if you could problems elsewhere.

I would have sold and kept the 0.1 if I didn't need to tinker my first 11. It's on my agenda but not the most important thing right now. To your question, if he was at 4.1 I wouldn't have sold as I don't think 3 Liverpool players is imperative right now.

I'm probably going to eye Robertson up in 5 or 6 gameweeks so will look to make the switch then.

Thanks all - I take hits every week but still see no reason to sell Tsimi, especially without seeing Robbo back and playing regularly. Even then, I expect we will see Robbo rested at points during the season, and I can't see myself needing that 3rd Liverpool slot for a while

No need to transfer him if you have higher priorities elsewhere. If he's anyone's only bench option they've got much bigger issues.

Tsimikas was a guaranteed start, so had him in original team. I had to replace this week, as he is not 100% nailed.
If you are using as a backup, great, if you need a nailed on, then transfer him out

Roll

B, do it next week

Benrahma

Fornals or the odd time benrahma

Benrahma if any, Fornals wont be dropped.

In the long term, yeh. However, in my case, I'm not sure I'm keeping Shaw or any United player past GW7.

I'd prefer to take my chances with Greenwood for gw3&4 - after that I can't see MUN getting many clean sheets until gw14/15

Both would need to be ditched fixtures wise soon anyway. I plan WC gw ditch Shaw they play west ham. Keep Greenwood until gw 7 when I get Mount.

Don't think he'll match Greenwood, he's already miles off. Personally I think myself and many others will be jumping off Shaw come gw7 for a Chelsea defender. I wouldn't be getting Shaw now if I didn't have him already.

A

b) - I'd prefer the extra points to the stronger bench

Antonio

King Bruno.

Antonio for me.

He was AWFUL. The oppo doesn't need a keeper when he wellies it into the stands.

Yes. He creates loads of chances and gets in really dangerous areas. His attacking stats look really good but he doesn't seem to be able to convert! if that changes he will be a great option at 6m.

Mate, if he's not banging in goals or assists - he's just not worth it.

He's Werner on a bad day.

I concur with what other posters have said I saw the first wolves game live. Tarore is a headless chicken. An extremely strong Chicken but can't find a barn door. Never mind the underlying stats the fella is the anti-Vardy.

It would be the same situation as last GW.

Probably not less likely.

Doesn’t matter, it’s between Mahrez and Jesus on that position.

as I have failed to ship out Mahrez for Son before the price rises I'm interested in this topic also.
Last GW Mahrez did not start with KDB in the team. But I don't think that there is a connection.
So the answer is: who knows. I would guess that Grealish is more nailed than Mahrez.

Grealish Sterling Jesus. Front 3 to feast on Arsenal

Sterling Ferran Jesus front 3 with Grealish and Gundogan in midfield in my opinion. Jesus played so well at right wing can’t see him being moved

Meh!
Arise Sir Gundo!
He's been forgotten about by so many, think I will captain him this week!

reply fail 🙁

Consider Doucoure as well.
Gray will probably at times rotate with Townsend.

It's a waste. Decoure will not keep up this level of scoring look elsewhere.

Dier

Dier has higher CS odds but Ayling has better offensive threat
