2 suggested transfers?
Need help. B)
I’d definitely save a tranfer for next time.
Perhaps downgrade Adrian or fix up Yun?
It depends if / who you have in mind as transfer targets…
Really want to bring in Silva/YYT, probably in place of Mirallas. Confused where to downgrade though.
Hm, in that case, it’s RvP’s name that stands out in terms of a downgrade. Would be a shame though as he’s an in-form differential.
I could also downgrade Azpi to a 4.8M defender to accommodate Silva?
Chelsea’s fixtures are going down, but losing Azpi will be the price of keeping RVP.
Who would you get? That’s a decent idea, especially if you think van Persie and 4.8m defender will outscore Rooney/Tekkers and Azpi, which is another hard call to make.
Damn this decision is so tough. All 4.8M defenders suck.
RVP is where I would look to save the cash. Maybe RVP & Miralles > Rooney & Silva. Does that work?
Yes I can do that. will have to make a decision between Bentekke and Rooney though.
Benteke has the fixtures; Rooney has the form.
Benteke is the main man; Rooney plays for the better side.
Both are nailed on.
Tough call…
Which of the following 3 would you start:
– Naylor vs Liverpool (A)
– Saylor vs Everton (H)
– Wasilewski vs Hull (A)
…and who would you put 1st on the bench?
Team for next week, only 1FT to use.
Can’t decide which is more of a priority, getting shut of Baines or bringing Silva in?
Any help much appreciated!
As you have no City coverage, it’s definitely Silva, in my eyes anyway.
Silva is definitely benefitting from the new team shape but the mids in Shadow’s team are all good (except Jedinak) so hard to say who to ditch.
Yeh it would have to be Eriksen to make way for Silva. Just think his next 2 home games are too enticing to not have him.
Baines is killing a lot of teams and although Silva is taking in the points looks like you have a strong midfield so I’d focus on switching out Baines
Silva please
Could take a 4 pointer and do both maybe.
Would feel a bit uneasy about that mind with Eriksen and Baines still able to pick up points
What are the thoughts on Jovetic returning and the points potential of Silva being reduced?
Rate my team please and would you possibly do Bony to Benteke? Or are there other concerns?
Sorry forgot my team.
Hi everyone. Looking to dump Barkley and maybe zab. Any suggestions who to swap them with? I’ve got 1 ft so may take a hot or wait on one. Was thinking sig or Downing for Barkley but zab not sure. Any suggestions?
Cheers
I’d wait a (game)week, then get Downng for Barkley, whilst keeping Zab.
Whose whu next opponents?
Arsenal (H)
Fair point perhaps wait then! Any other changes needed?
Yes actually. Just spotted Forster. I’d lose him for someone with better fixtures if you don’t need the tranfer elsewhere.
Cheers James.
Any suggestions for a gk replacement? I’ve got 5.6 to spend. Not sure I can do any better than Forster
Maybe de gea? Anyone have any advice
Adrian or de Gea are both good shouts I reckon.
