patterman
Just put in aguero and still have 1 free transfer.
Howard Boruc
Koscienly Sagna Coleman Collins Turner
Hazard Mata Sterling Ince Noone
Aguero Suarez Sturridge
Thinking of getting Johnson in for Ince this week and then Toure for Mata next week. What do you guys think?
Mito21 @FantasyFooty247
@patterman, that seems like sensible moves going forward. I prefer Nolan over Johnson, two home games in the double and his positioning is more central, but A.J may well deliver for you.
patterman
I was thinking about that but Johnson has another two DGW to be arranged. Also I wouldn’t be able to afford him. £6.9 is the highest without taking a -4 point hit.
EBC
That’s the reason I’m going for Johnson.
Albertini
Evening all, hope your GW has been good, I had the 1st green arrow in the last 4 weeks.
Just hit the WC button, so it’s transfer time!
Need your thoughts on these drafts (very low budget of 102.6):
Draft A: Adrian/Mannone
Distin, Ivanovic, Williamson, McCartney, Chester
Hazard, Livermore, Silva, Colback, Adam Johson
Suarez, Sturridge, Agüero
0.1 ITB
Draft B: Boruc/Gazzaniga
Coleman, Azpilicueta, Williamson, Bardsley, Chester
Hazard, Meyler, Yaya Touré, Colback, Sterling
Suarez, Sturridge, Agüero
0.2 ITB
Any suggestions much appreciated.
inittowinit
Hi Albertini, I’m liking draft B better because of the inclusion of Coleman and Yaya.
B-Bash
+1!!
Albertini
Bash well done, top 10!! Keep it up mate, step by step!
Albertini
Thanks Init and B-Bash, I’m also liking more draft B, maybe because it’s the last one.
I could also put in there some West Ham defender for Williamson, the problem would be in the midfield with two cheapies.
In draft A, I could put Sterling instead of AJ, which would leave enough funds to do Silva to Yaya.
Still a whole week to play with this, it will be some hard days!
inittowinit
Albertini I’m on a WC too so it will be interesting to see your thoughts and progress on it all this week. Mainly because I’m lazy and won’t do mine until 11pm on Friday night!
Albertini
Init don’t worry mate, I’ll be showing every change and looking for every advice, it’s a bit frustrating to have a so low budget which doesn’t allow me to have some other players but I have to live with that until the end of the season and try to do my best with it.
inittowinit
Cool, look forward to seeing your thoughts on it all Albertini. Your TV is a bit restrictive as you say, mines very average at about £106m but hey we all all know it’s not about the size it’s what you you do with it that counts 😉
Andy
Hey Albertini, I think that with a low team value that you have I don’t think you can afford both Yaya and Hazard in the midfield. On team B I’d possibly downgrade Yaya to Silva, Coleman to Distin and then upgrade Williamson to Zabaleta. I think it may be important for you to get 3 Man City players in straight away as over the coming weeks their players are only going to rise and I doubt your budget could handle it. Citeh will still have another 2 DGW’s after GW 31.
Albertini
Cheers Andy, it’s a good suggestion, I’ll take it in consideration. What’s your thoughts on Kolarov? I know his game time is a risk but if he plays against Fulham it could pay off and he’s 1.0 cheaper than Zab.
Andy
I’d prefer to go with the guys who look nailed rather than taking the risk, even for the future DGW’s Clichy will always be there but it could be worth a punt.
NIN
Albertini – I have Kolarov and the Fulham game is the aim, hopefully he plays it at least. I think he and Clichy are one in the same at the minute, could go either way really.
Albertini
Thanks guys, I know Kolarov can be highly frustrating to own with his 15 min cameos which is a pity as he is really a threat attack wise…
jamesimmo
I have such a temptation to make my moves tonight. But I mustn’t…
inittowinit
Don’t james, Champions League this week mate, much can happen….
jamesimmo
Cheers init, I won’t
sucking up those price changes!
NIN
Ha, i caved and made a transfer, oopsie.
jamesimmo
Haha, what did you do mate?
inittowinit
Why am I not surprised NIN! 😉 Go on mate what have you done?
NIN
Ha, Adebayor > Lukaku.
jamesimmo
#TeamNoAguero has begun eh! Fair play, it could work out given the fixtures, bold move.
inittowinit
Nowt wrong with that NIN. Cardiff at home and no fixtures in midweek, possible captaincy this week as well perhaps?
Andy
Lukaku for (c) as well NIN?
NIN
Yes, taking this week into account as well as the double it leaves me with a stronger team i think/hope, bring in Nolan and Baines next week for no hit and good to go hopefully.
NIN
Worst case scenario, Coleman&Nolan.
HL
Ha, knew it :satansmoking: !!
NIN
He who dares HL, the anti Kun!
HL
Nin – we’ll be in the same boat, me thinks 😉 !!
Made 10’s of scenarios lately and I might “pass” on Kun, myself, mate…
All of the Kun-less ones – made more sense…
Andy, me & you – might be the only ones who will dare to do this…
We might get mentioned from Cookie & Init in their following articles for being brave or for being stupid :dance: !!
Let’s wait and see 😉
Andy
Dear lord, in for a penny in for a pound, transfer done. Least Everton don’t have European games.
NIN
HL – Lets call it a calculated risk, the additions that can be made elsewhere are substantial so to hell with it, lets go Romelu!
Mito21 @FantasyFooty247
Don’t worry HL, I will specifically ask for a City game in the reviews so you can have a special shout out. 😉
NIN
Andy – Indeed, cant afford to lose even 0.1m if i’m to get Bainesy so it had to be done as Ade was plummeting.
HL
Mito, City are loosing it, imho…
But anyways – who’s a better pick between Yaya & Silva ?
Considering I’ll be Aguero-less…
Mito21 @FantasyFooty247
Would have to be Yaya. Silva for all his good looking skills is still not producing, I wouldn’t mind having both, but if I only got one it be Yaya.
Albertini
NIN – decided to go Agueroless? Afraid he might be dead again soon mate? Lukaku has really good fixtures and it could be a brilliant move.
NIN
Albertini – Too much damage elsewhere mate, this way i can keep the likes of Gerrard and Ivanovic, bring in Baines and maybe go back to Ivan later. Also, City aren’t exactly at full tilt recently, Wigan.
NIN
Oh, and avoid having to take a -4 this week, always a plus.
Albertini
You’re right, bringing in Aguero is really damaging and to go without him might be a good shout. I’m trying to make some ground (more than 100 points…) in some ML and Aguero is my last hope as my main rival has also a low budget and I reckon he won’t bring him in soon.
NIN
Hmm, if Aguero is a differential in your ML then yeah, go with him i’d say.
Albertini
Well, I can’t be 100% sure as he is now back from his injury, but I’m betting he will be. My rival has just sold YYT and has Suarez, Rooney and Ade up front and only Hazard and Terry as big names. It’ll be really hard but I’ll have to take some risks these 9 weeks left.
NIN
Same here Albertini, i’m chasing too so hopefully it all pays off ha.
Albertini
Yes good luck mate!
B-Bash
James, I can understand your thoughts! I’ve nearly hit the go button, but like Initt says, lot could go wrong during the week!
jamesimmo
It’s frustrating but true! If I was 9th in the world id be torn apart by it all.. 😉 What us / are your planned move(s) mate?
inittowinit
Evening B-Bash, what are your transfer targets this week mate? No worries if you’d rather not say!
NIN
9th, ha! in there like swimwear B-Bash, nice one!!!
Fish
Mata out for Nolan or Fellaini (both double GW)? Need funds to get Aguero in for Adebayor. Already have Januzaj for Man U cover
Potty Procky
Fish.
Do Mata for Sissoko,he too has a double game-week,and also this Weekend coming a beauty of a fixture,away to Fulham.
Potty
Potty Procky
Like I have said before on here.
Aguero is a huge risk to take on.
He does not recover well from injuries.
At least another 3 weeks at least before he will be up to speed.
Currently he is just going through the motions as he has a fear factor in his head of this injury going again.
For me its Giroud who is the man to pick.
Potty
Veer
Potty – Aguero has already started two matches, and will probably play barca midweek before his next PL match. It’s still a risk but with his price set to rocket and his DGWs I’m taking it.
Potty Procky
Veer.
Good luck mate,your going to need it.
You holding out til after the Barca match?
Potty
Veer
No, I need to catch him before his price rises., haha
Veer
Good morning, to anybody still online. I’m mking my transfers now, would appreciate if you could give it a quick look.
Szczesny Ruddy
Coleman Ivanovic Shaw Davies Gabbidon
Hazard Mata Lallana Sterling Mutch
Adebayor Giroud Suarez
2 FT and 2.5 in the bank. Should I go ahead and do Adebayor >> Aguero + Szczesny >> Mannone?
Thanks
The B
Seems like a good idea.
But do you have plans to change Giroud? Lukaku/Sturridge would be good replacements.
Veer
No, with Giroud being my only arsenal coverage for the DGW. Also, he’s in good form with a brace on Saturday.
