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!

Hiya all, hope you are well.. swapped sane for son but ready debating if I should take a -4 to get in PEA for Agüero. Ideally I would love to get in jiminez also but would need to take further hits to do that which includes getting rid of Richarlison to make room
Grizzly, don’t do it! – see my reply to hammerfan on the same question.
That said, I’ve sold Agüero this week – but that was to bring in Rashford and to replace injured Brooks with Son
Gee willikers guys! Same score as you last week (was hoping for mucj more, but only managed to scrape 4 pts from City’s 2nd match) and am gonna do the same transfer this week (unless the bad oyster that PEA had in after match celebrations is still affecting him and he declares himself ill)! Do not have the same team, tho’ some elements match. Well I wish you all luck collectively & individually!
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
Sane –> Son has been a popular move this week, I did that myself! But you have 5 players who blank GW27 so you need to get rid of them, Hazard and Sane could go for Auba for instance, you probably have to take a hit, which isn’t ideal as many have Auba for free… The fact you don’t own either Auba or Aguero now is tough
Haz/Sane/Kamara –> Son/Auba/Cheapie, is that possible? Would be for a -8 though, I would entertain the idea of going a bit different if I were you now though, perhaps get Anderson in already… You’re in a tough spot though, hope others here can spot an easier way out for you!
Cap Salah or Auba?
Fabianski
Robbo AWB Doherty
Son Salah Pogba Anderson
Auba Rashford Jimenez
Boruc TAA Digne Højbjerg
I have the same cap dilemma and currently leaning towards Salah, with Auba’s sickness I’m not fancying a punt on him, Salah will be the safe choice plus he scored the hatty against Bou
Need to get it right. Dropped from 69,459 -> 129,600 last GW. Lmao!
Well I dropped from 378k to 620k last GW, I guess I need to get it right as well LMFAO 😆
Sign O’ The Times.
I’m sure you’ll be enjoying a green arrow this week.
Mo.
Salah just, but both are good options
I don’t even see the dilemma to be honest.
Salah 100%.
Morning all, got 1 ft .+ 0.7 itb. Which of these 2 transfers would you do ?
Sane——>Pogba.
Sergio——> Auba.
Cheers.
PEA mate
Cheers.
G’day All!
Have been wanting to by Doherty for some time. Thinking of Digne to Doh. Have .9 mib and 1FT.
Would this be my best move? Or do you see something I don’t?
Want to bring in Pereira for D. Luiz next week.
All the best!
Wish I could delete my post sometimes lol. Don’t have a 4FT. Would have to do a 4ph to bring in Doherty. Think he could be worth it in the long run, especially in next 4 gwk’s?
I dont think its worth a 4 point hit considering you already have Bennett to cover any clean sheet
Will hold off. Thanks JMD.
