Constructing the Template
First the big hitters which any team must be constructed around. The 3 best teams are City/Chel/Ars, whilst there are good players from Liv/Utd/S*rs I dont think any detrimental enough to their clubs cause to be considered essential, yet. Most likely the OOP Sanchez & Aguero will prove to be essentials and of course one must have a Chelsea player (it doesnt really matter which one out of the big 3 as I think they will all score relative to their price by season end).
In midfield, 3 slots pick themselves as Rambo/Sterling/Siggy have looked great from wk1, and they are already in most peoples team. Looking ahead, Sterling has the fixtures, Rambo = new Lamps, Siggy is a fantasy machine.
Fitting all of them in the challenge so a budget player is required, which is why Naismith is necessary right now - there are no other standout picks at that price range in midfield or defence, although JWP/Dyer offer reasonable alternatives. I dont really agree with a 4.5 mid when you can have Naismith for a fraction more.
Then the only remaining choice is whether to purchase another 8-9 mid/fwd eg. Ade/Lamela, and rotate Siggy/Naismith (Im doing this and already left points on the bench this week!); Or, go budget and upgrade the defence with 1-2 premium players (e.g. Ivan/Coleman). The rest of the defence is 4-4.5s.In a H2H..
A: 37pt
B: Vlaar + Debuchy + Sanchez (c) + Sturridge
'A' should win?Probably.
Thanks, this is my best start ever.
I'm A and if i hang on, I win the month of August in my league and the $250 that comes with it.I think we're in the same league!
You are indeed off to an insane start. I don't think last year's August leader was as high up in OR as you areWe are 😉
Rooney -> Falcao when he joins city makes sense?
Assuming his price is moderate (11, 10.5).what? thought he joined Real Madrid
Di Marzio says Falcao is close to sing for City.
Sign*
he hasn't been very accurate this summer...
he's going to Real Madrid. Falcao even tweeted it himself.
what makes you think he would play every week at City? There are about 4 players of the 11 who can start weekly if they are healthy. The others are rotation fodder: the nasris, kolarovs, zabaletas, dzekos, sagna, clichy, etc etc etc
bad place to invest your money if you're not buying aguero/hart/kompany/silva/yaya
Mata + Bojan. 2 FT 0.5m ITB
a) keep Bojan, switch Mata to up to 9.5m (Sterling, Eriksen Tadic)
b) Bojan to Naismith, Mata to up to 9.5m
c) Bojan Mata Cahill -> Adebayor Tadic PvA (-4)b
C
Who do we think will partner Aguero upfront against Arsenal?
Dzeko or Cavani.
Falcao*
Falcao
Sole striker. City will play 4231
BTW I reckon Dzeko will start over Kun. Kun to start vs Bayern and Chelsea.
this, city need to dominate midfield to not allow arsenal to play good football
Dzeko/no one
Ask tomorrow. 🙂
More red arrows after being in the Costa to Jove kneejerk club...and capt Jove!!!
Hit WC and am playing price game right now.
Krul. Guzan
Pva. Dier. Ivanovic. Clyne. Janmaat
Dyer. Siggy. Sterling. FabregasRamsey. Naismith. Balotelli. Costa
So Kun rose last night, let's hope he stays quiet just a bit longer
When he scores a big haul... is the time to wildcard I think
Just want to hold off until GW6 otherwise a -8 to get him in. He shouldn't rise any more
What to do with this lot?
Elliot ■ Krul
Moore ■ Debuchy ■ Ferdinand ■ Clyne ■ Chester
Hazard ■ Ramsey ■ Mata ■ Albrighton ■ Sigurdsson
Rooney ■ Dzeko ■ Jovetic
2 FT, £2.4m in the bank.
Thinking
City pair + Mata ➡ Sterling + Ade + Costa (-4)
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance 🙂wait for tomorrow's games...that's probably the best move atm 🙂
Of course. 😀
Arsenal game too. Only have 0.2 to play with.
I like those transfers, although maybe hold off on the Sterling to Mata another week if you can afford it.
I can't, it funds Costa so he may need to wait.
Mata + Jovetic + Dzeko ----> Sturridge + Naismith + Eriksen?
or Dzeko + Mata + Jovetic ---> Costa + Chadli + Sturridge?
Not sure how Sterling will fit in, and his influence levels with Balo around. Best to watch him play first.Cheers for the ideas. Watch and decide I guess.
Thoughts on Shawcross? Stoke have some pretty solid fixtures coming up and I thought their D looked pretty solid today against City, buy maybe City were pretty poor which made them look good. Thinking of going from Terry-Shawcross. Opinions?
I'd go Pieters for 0.5m less. He was pretty good on the ball, and looks like a solid passer. He was much more noticeable than shawcross. He also has picked up 4 bonus points (2 in spite of losing 1-0 in gw1) Shawcross looked sloppy against city, to my eyes.
after wild carding costa out, i've just subbed him back in for rooney.... fml.
You'll thank yourself in the long run.
i'm thinking of taking a -4 point hit and bringing in sturridge for aguero....
Still two weeks until the deadline, but appreciate any help now as prices rises seem imminent.
Krul, Foster
Terry, Lovren Caulker, Clyne, Moore
Ramsey, Fabregas, Mata, Sigurdsson, Young
Rooney, Naismith, Costa
0.4 in the bank, 2ft
Young keeps loosing me value, but I don't want to waste a transfer on him to a bench fodder. Any ideas?Young simply has to go, maybe JWP? Not many options around that price...
Should I just drop him to a 4.5/5.0 and do Terry > Ivan?
Different crowd about so I'll repost this...
Reasons to WC this week...
1. Switching two defenders will properly solidify my uber D for a while. Can bring in the risers for the mean time to make money in those spots.
2. Rooney will drop .3 for sure. Can switch him for Costa, ride the rises and bring him back in at a lower price. Add Sturridge to this line of logic if he blanks as well.
3. Pelly was obviously taking shite and doesn't trust Jovetic. Can bring Naismith in to ride the rises and most likely bring Ade in in before the GW.
4. I may want to go 352. And I could make money on two midfield spots in the mean time as well.
Doesn't seem so silly to me.It's tempting to WC every week, and it seems a bit early although those reasons seem sound.
Tempting, think I should wildcard with the team above? Loosing value on young constantly in particular
Not with two FT. No way.
Thanks, needed some sense
I don't think Rooney will drop 0.3 (I have him as well)
Considering only Luis is the only player to drop 0.3 cause he's play all of 8 mins in 3 games.
Plus united have QPR, Lei, WHU up nextI think he most definitely will. Casuals will be flogging him in droves. And I wouldn't be getting rid. Would switch him to dodge the drops and bring him back in right before the GW at the lowered price.
has anyone even dropped 0.2m in a single week yet?
i pushed the button earlier, caught the kun and naismith rises.
Really pissed I missed Naismith's. But I'm sure he'll rise two more should I activate which is all I'll need.
Very much doubt he'll rise twice more.
Agreed
Austin or Diouf could surely get me the .2 as well.
Very unlikely.
Ooh.
Not even a remote chance Rooney will drop 0.3
Famous last words.
i tend to agree
you should wildcard otherwise the next 2 weeks will be boring
Which would you do?
(A) Mata to Sterling.
(B) Mata+Jovetic to Sterling and Adebayor for -4.
(C) Save FT.Ask again after tonight's games.
Perfect time to play City for us in GW5.
They'd have traveled to Arsenal and Bayern in the same week, while we have 2 home games vs Swansea and Schalke.Which is why I want to hold off Kun until GW6
So Green isn't gonna be the first choice QPR keeper anymore?
😯
he was great yesterday, McCarthy is just another backup... 🙂
What effect will the return of Walcott have on Ramsey? Walcott being a favourite of mine
you know the drill, it will make ramsey even better 🙂
double up imoThat's why i'm inclined t at the moment
Yep, I'm doubling up for sure... By then Mata and United's fixtures will be at an end, easy trade to Walcott.
Me likey this prospect. It's why the 352 is on me mind.
Morning Peeps..
What percentage would you say these defs have to start their respective teams' matches in the foreseen future?
Wilson, Naylor, Clyne, Duff, MooreAll nailed except Wilson.
Stoke have great fixtures coming up, thus inclined towards him.. btw any good 4.5 (nailed + good CS potential) def other than these?
Chester/Robertson from Hull. Chambers may well keep playing.
Anyone surprised no club has picked up Marshall from Cardiff? Great keeper
Dzeko to Naismith for -4? Just for the price swing?
Morning DZ,
Catching up for today here, anyone else forget to play Costa today? Need a self esteem boost😯
How do you forget?First sub, woke up late, missed the team sheet.
Suicide is imminentTeams weren't out by deadline.
At least you have him.
Lots of us benched Sig in GW1. At least you don't have to waste a trade to get him back in.
I subbed him intentionally 🙁
with liverpool's good run of fixtures, and question marks whether aguero will start next week following champions league duties, think it's worth a four point hit to move to either sturridge or balotelli for a few weeks before bringing aguero back in?
Next week? International break my friend.
We play Arsenal before Munich.
Think u should sleep
Starting 11 of dreams for gw 4 lads.....
???Probably need 105m
Something like...
Howard
Baines. Coleman. Ivano
Haz. Fab. Sterling. Sigg
Sturridge. Costa. Rooney
???(Triple Everton aside!!!)
But I think they will MAUL W Brom
Overkill on Everton defence. Wouldn't have any really.
Lloris
Jones Lovren Ivanovic
Hazard Zaha Eriksen Sterling
Costa Rooney AgueroYou have no Arsenal and a half fit Aguero for Arse v City???
:O
Krul, Foster
Clyne, Wilson, Naylor, Duff, Moore
Fabregas, Ramsey, Sterling, Siggy, King
Aguero, Costa, Ade
WC all set?
I promise I'll never again knee-jerk like Costa -> Jove!!!No. If you just hit WC u need risers.
Have Dier, Rose in place of Duff and Moore... and Dyer in place of Sterling to catch the rise...
Couldn't get Naismith as I want Costa, Aguero and Ade in the wildcard... so can't afford their price to rise...You have two weeks til the last min to get whoever!!!!
More risers I mean. Ivano. Janmaat maybe. Dyer. Naismith etc etc
Unless they rise twice, it's pointless.
My team:
De Gea (Gilks)
Debuchy Cahill Clyne (Wisdom Bruce)
Hazard Mata Ramsey Siggy (Elmohamady)
Costa Rooney Naismith
2FT / 0.4 in the bank
A) Mata and Cahill to Sterling and Ivanovic
B) Mata and Rooney to Tadic and Aguero
C) Any other suggestions?A
Are either TFPL or Fiso working at the moment?
Properly, no but TFPL is much closer atm, at least for rises.
Cheers TM
Well, selling Costa for Aguero and captaining him over Sigurdsson didn't work out that well did it? 😆
Mourinho trolled a lot of people on here.
I was lucky I'd already made my two transfers for the week before the Costa 'news' brokeSeemed like a decent choice at the time. Loads of luck in this game. I was worried that 9 of my 11 starters were away from home, and I had no City cover. Changed the armband from Rooney to Sig at 11.29. Thin margins!
Fkinell DZ or what!!!
1am, go lie down 😛
Low scoring GW, what'd you expect
Not many want to look at fantasy after a stinker of a week
Planned transfers are.
1. Fletcher-->Ade
2. DDG--->Krul
3. Dzeko--->Costa
4. Mata--->Marney
Should I:
A) Do all these transfers this GW (-8)
B) Do 3 & 4 for Free and do 1 & 2 for -4 next GW
Thanks. 😀What about 1 & 4?
I feel Costa is essential for the game against Swansea. Must have imo.
Fair enough.
dont do 2 for now
or 2 & 3 😉
Can't afford to do that.
