So wiv siggy gone & my new fav player Tadic on board, I’m pretty pleased with my team….
But..
Question is will Manone keep he his place after the horror show vs Soton..?
My team
Taking out a midfielder that’s often used as a striker? >.<
I was thinking the same thing about Mannone. I didn’t watch the game, but if you let 8 past and the Black cats have a good second keeper, you would be a little nervous if you have Mannone as your keeper
Evening all!!
Does anyone know if Alcaraz is nailed on to start for Everton over the coming GWs?
Moyes knows. Wait. Nevermind.
Ha ha
Can anyone say who is going to rise or fall tonight?
Looks down. It’s fall.
omfg lol
Naaah, seriously? Visit the fantasy football fix site. Can’t say they’re 100 percent spot on with the pricechanges but they’re the closest at the moment.
According to them Bertrand and Pelle are going up tonight. Colback, Soldado, Bony, Bent and Zaha going down.
Yesterday they were off though. They didn’t predict Baines and Kun would go up.
Cheers Raz! Appreciated
From the looks of this, Pellè and Bertrand will rise tonight. I don’t know how accurate it is, but it seems pretty logical to me.
According to FFF, Pelle and Bertrand to rise and Bony, Zaha, Soldado, Bent and Colback to fall tonight.
Yo guys
I decided to activate my wildcard. Now this is what my team will be looking like, but I have a few questions for ya’ll. Barkley or Sigurdsson?
I’ve had a look at Sigurdsson’s history and I can’t say I’m too impressed. Only 3 good games in 8. I want some more consistency. Is Barkley the answer? I know that he’s quick and has a good shot, but how does he compare to Sigurdsson?
Barkley has a slightly better fixture run than Sigurdsson.
I’m not changing any of the other players unless any of them get injured or if Sterling get’s rested.
Thanks for any advice and opinions.
On WC, Barkley makes more sense. But we Siggy owners will still be keeping him because of home game against Leicester.
I was thinking the same. Yeah of course if you’re not on a wildcard it would make no sense to him for someone just as good.
Ok, off for bed soonish. First want to show my team. I took out Sterling yesterday (even though I like him a whole lot) and replaced him with Tadic. Did that transfer to free up cash so I can afford Kun. If I want Kun either Falcao or Costa needs to be replaced. Will look at how Falcao does tomorrow.
If I sell Falcao it will be easier to buy him back after he faced Chelsea and City. ON that note, I think with Atletico he scored a hattrick versus Chelsea. >.< I Actually made the transfer so I could take out Costa if his injury does appaer to be more than just a Mourinho mindgame/frown.
In a weird interview Fabregas said his role will be deeper and deeper. Like wtf? Anyway, he's still the guy doing set pieces so he should get a few assists still. Thinking in a couple of weeks I could swap him in for maybe Chadli (depening how he does). If I do that I can have Kun-Costa-Falcao (or Sturridge). Which is kind of awesome. :p
ANyway, what changes would you make to this team?
The decision will mostly depend on how Falcao does tomorrow. We also need to wait for the Champions League games. Aguero, Fab and Costa will be involved, so not in the best interests to make an early transfer, considering Aguero’s record of pissing owners off.
Cool mate, you’re right. That’s why I had to do the Tadic transfer. Looking back at it that was a smart move. I only have 0.1m spare in the bank so Kun is only allowed to rise 0.1m. Costa is allowed to go down 0.1m since that won’t effect his selling value. So with a bit of luck I can keep the transfer till late friday and then decide.
Raziel
I prefer both Falcao and Aguero over Costa. Maybe that’s insane, but I can only see Falcao getting more and more goals. Aguero is #1 if he’s not injured.
I like the Fabregas to Chadli move, or maybe Barkley.
Sturridge won’t be in play for another while so don’t think about him yet.
All in all, to me your team is looking rock solid.
Yeah, I sort of want to keep Falcao just because I like the guy. HAHA. For real. He’s cool. Costa? Hmmmmmmmmmmm…. not so much. Only reason I liked him is because he scored me fpl points. :p
lol SO true. I can’t stand Costa.
have you had a look at ManU matches for the next 4 GW’s. Chelsea, City and Arsenel coming up. plus Rooney will be back in 1 week. Not sure if Falcao is the best option.
there is also RVP
LOL. Your grave if you don’t want Chelsea coverage. The only undefeated team with a striker that scored 9 goals in 7 games for his first ever season in a CFC jersey. Just saying, they are easily the best looking team in the EPL…
Guys, this is my team. Would welcome any suggestions. My current preferred strategy is tp save my transfer this week, and maybe deal with King next week (or do that this week if it looks like Boyd will rise and no one gets injured midweek).
Dont think the King transfer is necessary, would you every use Boyd? I wont, cause I cant leave Siggy on bench, ever, since that GW1 against United. Also, you 4-3-3 seem great, and bringing in Boyd would just be a waste of transfer.
Monitor Costa for now. If injured, then get Welbeck maybe. If not, then save and do Siggy>Barkley next week.
Yeah, I guess the King transfer can wait. Barkley seems like a great differential for Siggy, so I’ll keep that in mind, thanks.
After the beating Sunderland took I don’t know which of those 2 goalies to play, to be honest.
Team loosk solid, you don’t have to do anything. Only King is a worry?
