A lucky touch of genius
“We have decided to simply bend over and take whatever Pep gives us, good or bad”. That was a quote from last week in relation to buying Aguero. Turns out he was in a giving mood! Two transfers and four goals; you could be forgiven for thinking we may be a bunch of geniuses, but anybody who actually read how we arrived at last weeks decision to bring in Kun and captain him will know very differently! It wasn’t an entirely unplanned birth in the end, but our intentions did start out very differently, let’s just say the condom broke and leave it at that…
An 8th green arrow in a row sees us up to another season high of 21,336th, a rise of about 10k. Kun obviously did his bit, as did Son, elsewhere Jimenez starred with a 9, Pogba got a sublime assist, as did Doherty (less sublime though!) and Wan-B and Shaw did their bits with clean sheets. The rest simply made up the numbers to see us end up on a fairly respectable 88 points, 23 above the average.
Last week’s result…
This week’s transfer decision…
We go into this week with 1 free transfer and £0.3m in the bank. We have to have an eye on the blanks ahead in GW27 of course, and to that end we are without Digne, Sane and Aguero for that one as we stand. Let’s go see how we plan to juggle that with the need for actual points this week….
It was a fairly simple and unanimous decision this week, there are no tales of incompetence or internal struggles to regale you with this week, unfortunately. As much as Aguero was a welcome addition last week, and as much as he served his purpose, we are nothing if not ruthless in our pursuit of points and quite simply Aubameyang suits us perfectly this week in that respect, on more than one level. He has the better (arguably the best; see Huddersfield) fixture and he’s a bit of a flat track bully against this sort of opposition; it’s difficult not to offend somebody along the line when you say this but he has 24 points against Fulham and 20 against Cardiff over two games and double digits against Burnley and… Spurs.
To confirm then; we are SELLING AGUERO & BUYING AUBAMEYANG
Our Captain is Mo Salah
New recruit PEA was well and truly in the mix here but Mo just edged him by the finest of margins. It could be that Bournemouth’s form against the ‘big 6’ swayed the vote; 8 games, 7 defeats, 22 conceded, and in some of those games heavily so. Or it could be the memory of what Salah did to them last time. Or it could be that we just think Liverpool may suddenly reawaken and kick on again and that this feels like the sort of fixture in which that may happen. Or it could all just be pie in the (blue) sky thinking. For the record, our one Liverpool fan voted for Aubameyang!

Hi all
So I had an awful GW25, sold Hazard for Sane, Captained Salah and didnt have Augero. Any advice fpr this week? 1FT
Patricio Lossl
Keane Shaw Bennett Wan B Pereira
Sane Salah Son Pogba Masuaka
Auba Jimenez Rashford
Sane to Mane?
Is double Liverpool attack worth it?
Possibly, if they click into gear again. The one thing I’ll say about Mane though is that in the last three Liverpool games that I have seen he’s been their biggest threat and most lively player, both from open play and from corners, strangely enough.
Hi all
Was thinking my transfer should be sane to son? Or should I be looking elsewhere?
Cheers
Sane -> Son is a good transfer imo.
Cheerd
Guys am I good to go here? I’ve 1 ft but was thinking about saving, any advice
Save, without a doubt.
Thanks bud
Hey good folks,
Took out Danilo for Kol.
Should I do Aguero to Auba? Or is Auba sick?
Perhaps Sane to Son?
Either of the above requires a -4.
Did I get my overall team selection right?
LSD
Both sound moves, but probably neither worth a hit for.
Sooo stay put?
Here is my team so far for GW26.
Have done 2 transfers so far as I had them carried over.
I intend on doing Aguero->Auba maybe tonight, if not tomorrow morning depending on if Aguero’s price rises for a 4ph
I am chasing in my ML, and fairly sure the leader wont have Auba.
He has Salah.
So should I captain Salah, and match for points, or gamble and captain Auba?
Do I have the right person on the bench?
Thoughts please
Hammerfan, I wouldn’t take the hit. It would mean you’d need Auba to score one goal more than Agüero just for you to break even. Also: Auba’s and Arsenal’s form is worse than Agüero’s and Man City’s, and Auba’s been ill (so could be below par and play less than 90 minutes). I’d suggest you keep Agüero, bench him in GW27 and look forward to his fixtures in GWs 28 to 30.
Well, as strange as it seems, I am kind of taking the hit on Ings….lol
I only did the early moves to take into account the price rises.
I think Aguero will be rested at the weekend anyway. Although I will be bringing back in the next few weeks maybe anyway
Good morning people
Not having & not captaining Agüero last GW made my 2nd place gain ground from 60 to 19 points.
What’s my best move this week ?
Danilo – Kolasinac?
Sané/Kamara- PEA/cheapie mf? -4
Still have all my chips when should I use my WC & FH
Will appreciate all advice
Cheers
Danilo to Kola feels about right.
As for the chips there was a good discussion / handy starting point here on the issue:
