Let us all know what you did and whether it was worth it on our weekly Live Match Chat forum. As for the games themselves Swansea host Man United to begin our week at lunchtime on Saturday.

Thoughts on price drops? Previously I have made kneejerk transfers to avoid them but I honestly think that isn’t too healthy. JRod has decent fixtures but will drop v soon. Not convinced by any budget strikers so I’m tempted to just sit tight… Likewise, a 4pt hit to tear up my midfield and get Pogba/Mkhi in. Some bandwagons are worth chasing- not convinced it’s pulling away out the station too quickly though….
(my team btw)
Ramsey owners, whats the plan?
Hi B. I can’t switch him for Pogba/Mkhi without a hit, and (see team above) I would realistically need to use KDB or Alonso as a makeweight. Perhaps Kola > Mbemba would be the best option, but it’s not very appealing.
The way I see it: we all got him in because he’s been playing well. Arsenal always struggle at Stoke. The game vs Liverpool could be a goalfest given the respective defences. For me, he’s not a priority to shift pre-international break. If I was on a WC I doubt I’d pick him, but I am not…
Thats what im thinking Pip. Hoping Liverpoolturns on “Joke Defense Mode” like in GW1 and allows Rambo to walk around.
Bog off, you and your ‘joke defence mode’. :p
I think both team will score well. Mane and Ramsey in my team for sure
Having watched the game he got forward a lot and was unlucky not to score. But no points which was annoying. Liverpool tend to concede
Is it to early to Wildcard?
Depends on how shitty your team is.
You prob have more points than me but I feel it’s a bit early. United have scored big against 2 very poor teams and window ain’t even shut yet.
This is my team.
Midfield is certainly weak there No 1. Looking at that you must have dosh itb, do you ?
Yeah I have Ince and Ritchie want to get rid but may give them this week as they don’t have bad fixtures
I have 1.5 mil and I want pogba
Looks like KDB out, Ritchie to Pogba and whats left replaces KDB.
Put simply, it’s never too early. It depends on: the state of your team, i.e. how many players you want to change; whether the changes you are making are based on both form and fixtures (which therefore, for me, rules out a GW1/2 WC save for injuries/suspensions); and, to an extent, how much ground you have to catch up in your mini-leagues.
GW4 was the most popular among the top 100 last year, by a long way.
Week 4/5/6sounds about right
Hey guys,
Need to get Pogba in.Have 2FTs
Was going to remove Ince And Kola to fund the move but J Rod’s price is going down tonight and don’t want to lose that 0.1m
So,
Kola to Trippier
And J Rod’s to Okasaki/Abraham/Perez(Newcastle)
And then Willian to Pogba for -4
Have to do it tonight.
Abraham’s fixtures are pretty good. Who should I replace J Rod’s with?
And then Danilo was benched…
Hey guys,
I’ve got 2 FT and 0mitb. Want to get pogba in. any thoughts?
See how KDB gets on.
