Good Morning Peeps...
What transfer would you recommend for this lot?
Krul, Foster
Jones, Coloccini, Caulker, Wisdom, Moore
Hazard, Ramsey, Mata, Sigurdsson, Marney
Costa, Rooney, Adebayor
Thanx in advance!
If you have 0 or 1 free transfer save it
If you have 2 free transfers, Jones to Clyne. Caulker out soon
Jones > Clyne?
Would you do it for a hit?
No...
Not for a hit imo
Thank you guys.
Worth bringing in Aguero this week or hold fire ?
I'd be jealous if you did put it that way 😉
Well. Am bored & hv 2 FT. Pretty bad combo eh ! 😆
Dangerous 😛
Really hope Arsenal sign Remy, that would solve my transfer dilemma...
Or Bony... Either is very likely if the Giroud news is true
hopefully sooner rather than later
Yep, I'd take Bony too tbh, but I don't think Wenger would...
Wouldn't be too surprised if Wenger just decide to pluck someone from Ligue 2.
😀
Forgot how good it feels to see Ivan in my back line. My Serbian security blanket 🙂
wish i could afford him. if Cech leaves then Cortouis is my planned blanket
That would be a comfy yet plain blanket 😉
If I downgrade Studge I could bring Baines in. Will do I think.
He's one for the gw8 wc 😉
Hoping he scores next week so I can get him in for the differential and price rises. Doubt many would be able to swing it.
Captains everyone? I know it's early in the week
50/50 between shrek and jove
Ramsey
Jovetic a lot more tempting than he was 24 hours ago
Ramsey
Tossing up between Rooney and Rambo
This
Chester and Giroud look my issues. 0.5 bank 2 FT
Krul/Foster
Clyne Pieters Caulker Chester Moore
Ramsey Mata Fab Siggy Marney
Rooney Costa Giroud
Remy or Bony solves my Giroud transfer.
I need one more playing defender for this week and beyond. Coloccini? Naylor?Chester only out for 1 game, hold.
not sure then id have to play pieters at city or moore hosting aresnal
True, makes sense to trade then
Good to see you have enough restraint to save up your 2FTs and not have to take a hit so early. Bony or Jovetic for Giroud is the go.
My team:
De Gea (Gilks)
Cahill Debuchy Clyne (Wisdom Bruce)
Mata Hazard Siggy Ramsey (Elmohamady)
Costa Rooney Naismith
1FT / 0.4 in the bank.
1) Debuchy --> 4-4.1M (Any suggestion?)
Costa --> Aguero
2) Debuchy --> 4-4.1M
Rooney--> Aguero
3) Mata --> 7-7.5M (Tadic, Cabella?)
4) Save it and cry
Note that 1,2,3 will cost -4ptsgood team. Save it and dont cry
I really miss some Man City cover though.
i agree but Im waiting until gw6
Save it.
Alright I will hold and see. Thanks guys.
Who should I transfer out? They both got me zero points. Baines or Rio? I sell Baines I’m doing it for a hit and getting rid of Bojan.
Baines will always be a threat, Rio I would keep. 3 5 7 9 are all good home games if i remember correctly (I know its QPR)
Depends what it helps to fund. Baines to colo and bojan to jovetic would be decent for a hit as an example
If I do take that hit my most expensive defender would be 5m. Not a price point at the back you can easily move around.
3 people in my ML have already transferred out Rooney for Jovetic.
Am I wrong to think it's better to keep Rooney?Ultimate knee-jerk. Rooney is a good, safe long term pick
This.
Until he gets moved to the wing in a 4-3-3.
I'd keep Rooney. Much better fixtures after this week and he scores goals. Total knee jerk
When do transfers 'start costing points'? It seems that I can't WC atm because of this.
I took -4 last week, if that helps.
Not sure what you mean...
Don't worry, confusions.
Any suggestions or save?
Krul, foster
Baines, Cahill, PVA, Hutton, Wisdom
Mata, Ramsey, Erik, ince, wanyama
Rooney, Costa, jovetic
1ft, £0Save.
Save
Yup save a transfer
It's really tight towards the top. Only 2 pts between 24k and 11k.
I feel like rankings don't really matter until several weeks into the season.Yep, and only 9pts between 9k > 46k...
Tight in the middle as well. I'm at 250k, only about 5 pts out top 100k
we need to chill out speculating the united starting 11 and system
no matter who posts a predicted line up its met with and where does he fit in? why is he there ? why is he on the bench he cost this amount or that amount
its a squad game u only have to look at the subs benches at city and chelsea week in week out to realise that the most dominant sides have top quality all over the park and on the bench
not many are gunna play every game.. rotation paricularly in attack for united with the likes of rooney rvp di maria januzaj mata will all feature heavily at different times and in different roles
thats before u mention kagawa welbeck hernandez who may or may not have futures...
the major problem lies in the centre of the park.. personally i felt physically sick watching fletcher and cleverly on sunday and enough is enough.. neither are capable of one protecting a young defence that badly needs it or two providing accurate and incisive forward passes to our forwards
its a sad sad day when i looked at sunderlands midfield of cattermole rodwell and seb larsson and thought actually id have any of them in our team ahead of cleverley and fletcher
its screaming out for a vidal and failing him alex song would be my pick big strong quick mobile tough tackling everything that carrick isnt actually and an eye for a pass
someone of that nature alongside herrera who btw i think will be top drawer and we will be such a stronger team and more effective all over the park
just pray LVG is thinking along these lines im sure he isSouthampton's CM puts ours to shame.
Think about that. And watch this space.Agreed. Maybe we can get Roy Keane over from Villa?
id take keane over fletcher and cleverly and he's 43
Absolutely this. Their midfield is inept and has little creativity or confidence moving forward. Forwards back looking for the ball. Herrara is a great pick up and Vidal would be huge for Utd
alex song would be available for around 10 mil knows the premier league has all the attributes id go as far as to say he'd maybe be my first choice or why not get him and try for vidal too
He and Herrara would be just fine A ton of the right kind of experience. Good player
he's class linked up brilliantly with rvp at arsenal too
Remember thinking similar thing during the Sunderland game myself.
Suddenly hit me that as things stood (injuries) Jack Rodwell would have started for us....United were pretty shite v Sunderland... everyone of them looked to have a mistake or two in them...
it was pathetic mate fletcher couldnt even bring the ball under control and cleverly gave the ball away if he tried anything other than a 5 yard pass to either side or back to one of the cbs
iv been watching this shit long enough its destroying our whole team
carrick and herrera are a good bit better than cleverly and fletcher though
Absolutely. There's no doubt, we also had an injury crisis.
im sick of looking at carrick tbh
people go on about how much of an understated job he does and his positional sense is amazing in the right place to intercept and all this bs.. that maybe so but thats only because he cant move he's far too slow takes too long on the ball and then more often than not gets closed down and is dispossesed against the top teams and is forced into a backwards pass iv seen enough.. iv no objection to having him around the squad on the bench to use in home games were we are on top but he's over run out muscled and goes missing against every top team with strong dynamic midfielders
herrera on the other hand looks quality composed on the ball not scared to put his foot in can driblle and always looking to get the ball forward
Best captain for gw 3?
Ramsey or Rooney for me...
silva if you have him
FAIL, meant aguero
Was contemplating taking out Jovetic and putting in Riviere at the start of the gameweek 😀 So glad I didn't!
Who will you captained for GW3? I am going with Ramsey 🙂
ask me on friday
Are there any FFS old campaigners here who consistently have taken hits over the years and still had high overall rankings?
How many hits is acceptable in a season and how many is unacceptable?
I only took 3-4 hits for the entirety of last season and still finished reasonably highly so am not an advocater of them.Fwiw my best finish was 78th and I was taking hits almost every week. Success breeds confidence though, I was feeling it and getting most spot on. Since then I lost my touch for it and now play more conservatively.
There is no right answer to your question. Spending points is just gambling. Sometimes you'll see odds that can be exploitedfound a great article on this. Analysed in massive detail players who have finished in the top 10,000 for the last 3 years.
Say the average transfers per season for top 10,000 player is 47. Guess that equates to 9 points hits. Actual, 11 thinking about wild cards
http://fpldiscovery.wordpress.com/2014/05/20/final-top-10000-teams/
12 hits*
35 normals & 2 WCs.Cheers TM, i will get there one day!
Took a hit last week and will again this week. Dont mind the early ones.Best to take them early give the template holding up.
Wow interesting read, thanks.
Any suggestions or save?
Lloris (Gilks)
Debuchy Clyne Cahill (Dummett) (Chester)
Siggy Ramsey Hazard Sterling (Cattermole)
Rooney Costa Berahino£0.1 in the bank, 1 FT
Save it
so keep chester, right guys?
No brainer for me. He was the last defender on my rotation, and just GW3 missed.
Up and running for GW4 after a good rest!true, and I think dawson will take mcshane's spot and it will be davies chester dawson
Yes
Yeah, it'd be a waste of a transfer if you want him back in your team after his suspension is completed.
depends on your needs. he's out for me as i need someone to play this week
How's your thoughts on Liverpool attack, especially Sturridge, Sterling and Henderson?
Still good options, will score well gw4 onwards..
*gw3
You think they'll score well v Spurs?
Can't see it myself...I think so yeah
Sterling is pick of them for me, but Sturridge should be good also. Smh at people that traded either of them.
Sturridge and Sterling were good today. Studge really unlucky not to get on the score sheet.
Sterling looks better value than Sturridge and way more points potential than Henderson. I'm not quite ready to captain sterling which is his one draw back though may change my mind if he keeps producing
Pick 3 to play...
Terry(eve)
Caulker(SUN)
Clyne(whm)
Cavies(avl)
Wisdom((swa)...Terry, Caulker, Cavies
That could be a shrewd call, since WHM have a great record v So'ton...
The first 3.
Terry, Clyne, Caulker
Terry, Caulker, Clyne
Terry|Caulker|Clyne. 50/50 between Clyne & Cavies though
Yeah it's looking that way...
Thanks guys...
Still can't get over United spending £60m on Di Maria. £60m!! It just reeks of sheer desperation. Watching that farce against Sunderland it's plain to see Cleverley and Fletcher were simply terrible. Herrera looked alright against Swansea but even if he turns out to be brilliant he wouldn't be able to do it on his own in the middle. £60m! he isn't worth 40. Why aren't they going for Khedira, an obvious choice. Why weren;t they interested in Kroos. Why aren't they linked with Strootman. Why is Shane Long worth £12m and why does Samaras have a premier league club.
World's gone mad.
In todays's market no one is actually worth what they are payed like luiz,bale,james,shaw.
Id rather overpay for a worldclassplayer like di maria then play valencia,young,. Plus we lacked a world class winger sine the days of ronaldo and dimaria will bring much needed pace and spark.A) He is worth more than 40mill, yes we payed 10 or so million over the odds but really, why should the fans care
B) We should go for Khedira
C) We were interested in Kroos, he chose Real
D) We are interested in StrootmanNow list the better players in di Maria's position. 🙂
Good luck - I'm expecting a big list I presume?A better list to write is Man U's 3 center backs for Saturday and their statring midfield midfield
Our CBs are quite good. Such a ridiculous dialogue right now.
Have just the money to do
Vazte Cahill Debuchy --> Jovetic Clyne PVA (-4)
Good transfers ??.clyne and pva and no hit on jovetic are good
Arnie is killing me... I'm not sure what to do with him. I don't have any transfers or anything in the bank. What is your opinion? He has already dropped once and will drop again soon. Stick or worth it taking a hit to get him out?
My team is:
Krul Elliott
Lovren Debuchy Jones Wisdom Kelly
Hazard Mata Ramsey Siggy Arnie
Naismith Rooney CostaNo brainer?
Kelly -> ColocciniYep easy choice
Rodwell slipped during his goal celebration... 😆
Appreciate your thoughts on this lot:
Krul, foster
Terry, Jones, Ferdinand, Wisdom, Chester
Mata, Ramsey, Eriksen, Siggy, Marney
Rooney, Costa, Dzeko
Have 2 FTs, nothing in the bank
thinking about
1. Downgrading Jones to a 4.5, maybe N.Taylor? - I know about Man U fixtures but dun think much about their defence
2. Upgrade Eriksen? or switch to Lamela - eventually I want one of Hazard or Fab
3. Will wait for news on Dzeko - will swap him for Jovetic/ Ade if needed?Jones to Ntaylor and Ferdinand to Colo.
leave you 1m? use that later for upgradeThanks for reply!
I have Krul for newcastle cover, happy with that for now.
Yah will probably do the Jones transfer this week and wait for Dzeko news.
1. Coloccini ahead of Naylor for mine, based on Toon fixtures.
2. Keep Eriksen
3. Best to wait on confirmation RE: Dzeko
Quality side otherwise.Thanks for reply!
I have Krul for newcastle cover now.. you think it's worth it to double up with Colo?
Eriksen - yah will resist my jerky knee.. pls pls score soon
Yah will wait on Dzeko news
2m and a FT. Should I be keeping Dzeko if he is confirmed to play? Tempted to bring in Balotelli for him, no matter the price.
Begovic
Kelly - Clyne - PvA
Eriksen - Mata - Siggy - Ramsey
Dzeko - Costa - Rooney
Gilks -- Marney - Ferdinand - ChesterWhat makes you think that balotelli will slot right into the starting XI. They have a core of players playing together like sterling.sturridge,coutinho,hendo,gerrarrd and rodgers will not want to ruin their chemistry. Think ballo will be eased in.
Same front 7 as me! (See post above yours)
Aren't you tempted to get in a Chelsea mid?
Hmm I would probably try to get in Colo for newcastle's fixtures coming up
What a Kunundrum.
😕
I've got 0.5 in the bank now, and I may be tempted to do Sturridge > Aguero for a -4.
😀
Giroud our for 3 months, does that mean Sanchez will play up front or will Sanogo?
Out*
I think they'll bring someone in
Both will share imo.
Sanchez won't play upfront IMO... he had zero presence in the box v Everton...
0 touches in the box out of 26 total... which is why he got hauled off...
