hello, ur the one from uefacouncil na? the one who plays in La liga fixtures..... thanks for the suggestion sir..
Open Controlsyupp, that's me! yeah jk, parm and I all play in la liga.
you're welcome. don't think caz is a great fantasy prospect. if you look at the 3 games arsenal has scored 3+ goals he has 1 goal and 1 assist from those 3 games which in sum had 12 arsenal goals....Open Controlsyeah i know.. and i am also playing in serie A.. along with other admin pratik..got the team US pescara..
and yes caz is the one player who is capable of scoring or giving assists..but seems like not the right time for him at the moment..Open Controls
Arrghh!
Open Controls
price rises! up to 107.2 now. hopefully berba, suarez, fellaini rise 0.2 more
Open ControlsAnother 2 Bonus points for Baines even without a cleanie..!!!!
Open Controlsbale + pienaar > walcott + afro (-4)
or pienaar + michu > afro + morrison/ramirez/lallana/sterling (-4)
what do we think of either of those? too knee jerky?Open ControlsWith your indecisions you will get Fellaini in a high price.
Open ControlsSorry 😛
I'd ditch Pienaar for Fellaini and I'd get Ramirez, I think he can be a differential. Give Michu a couple of weeks. However he didn't score a lot since he is playing as a strikerOpen Controls
thanks. think its worth the hit and worth dropping michu who is oop?
Open Controls
can u get afro without a hit?
Open Controls
anybody have a summary of who rose?
Afro, berba. who else?Open ControlsAfro, Suarez, Berba and McAuley.
Open Controls
Over the next few weeks, how do these transfers sound?
Taarabt, Santi & Ba -> Walcott, Puncheon & Aguero. Puncheon would then be bench fodder every week.
Team linkedOpen Controlshonestly i'd want to keep ba a bit longer. then probably ship for berb or suarez. pool have a nice run coming up and suarez seems to be the main man! not sure if aguero is worth the price... tevez might be a better bet still. or perhaps silva? would be better to wait and see
Open Controls
In a last man standing. My options for next week are:
Liverpool home to Wigan
Newcastle home to swansea
QPR home to Saints
Liverpool is the obvious choice but I can never trust them...
Opinions??Open Controlswell you wont want to pick qpr the week after when they play united so that means you'll either have to play them home to saints or away to sunderland in gw 14
week after next pool away to swa and newcastle away to sot so i'd say pick which one you'd want to play in gw 13 and then play the other one this weekOpen Controls
ahaa..outscored my opponent in the FFS paddy power cup, but 8 point hit means i am out of the cup now 🙁
Open Controlslooking for early captain idea...suarez (WIG) or RVP (nor)?
Uruguay plays in Poland, while Holalnd plays Germany for midweek friendlies, if that makes any differenceOpen ControlsSuarez will get a yellow in the Uruguay game and miss Wigan. You heard it here first.
Open Controls
Liverpool - Chelsea tickets go on sale tomorrow for April fixture, might treat myself to that game as my annual season visit to Anfield 🙂
Open ControlsI took an 8 points hit because i've been getting red arrows for the past 6 GWs.. So here's my team now, how does it look like? Will it do good in the next GW ? I'm benching Pienaar next week and taking him out.
Jaaskelainen
Cole- S.Taylor- Cameron
Hazard- Nolan- Fellaini- Michu
RVP- Ba- Berbatov
Foster--Demel--Pienaar-Jenkinson... PLEASE REPLY.Open Controlslooks good maybe play piennar over michu but who knows
Open Controls
Probably a good thing. I bought him so I think he's almost guaranteed to get 1 point over the next two weeks.
Open Controls
Basically can't shake the feeling that my defence is currently all potential little results.
Baines Sagna Bardsley Boyce Demel
I figured that the middle three at 5.4, 4.8 and 5.0 were good value for attacking returns and decent cs potential. I could also play 4-3-3 if my midfielders had an awful week. I don't think I'm totally off the mark, but it's going to require a lot of patience. Particularly as boyce looks ripe for downgrading to a 4.0er.Open ControlsWhy don't you ditch Bardsley for a Stoke defender? Cameron like everyone else.
Open ControlsIMO bardsley has similar chances of a cs when you consider home and away (because stoke cs is very much a home thing), has greater attacking threat and also has a DGW comubf up. Plus it's not the best week to bring in a stoke defender away to another home team, west ham
Open Controlscomubf 😀
Open ControlsLol autocorrect!
Open Controls
In fact I have Cuellar for that same reason (clean sheets). Bardsley, 0 assists so far and Sunderland are poor offensively.
Open ControlsBardsley has only started one game so far... he's not a miracle worker! We'll have to see if he can help Sunderland threaten more. It'll be him and Johnson in the right.
If I did downgrade him it would either be a stoke or Norwich defender, or gorkss if I really want to save moneyOpen Controls
i think bardsley to another would do good to you.. cheers isacki.. i see you won H2H this week in serie A..although missed your posts this week.. last week's halloween post was superb
Open ControlsSuppose you could save at least a million there by having Mertesacker, Cuellar and Figueroa.
Open ControlsRotation risk, no attacking points, no attacking points, basically I think that's well worth a million, if it is that.
Open ControlsI think Cuellar will score as many as Bardsley will. Bardsley only scores from long rangers every now and again. Cuellar will be up for corners all the time. In fact he nearly scored against Everton. Gardner got in his way.
Open ControlsNeither is exactly explosive but cuellar's attacking returns amount to 2 assists in the last 2 seasons, I'm not really getting my hopes up. At 0.3 difference I'm betting on the possibility of attacking returns, bardsley fell nicely in price towards cuellar
Open ControlsCuellar still has the advantage for me with the odd header from a set piece. As a Sunderland fan I love Bardsley but his goals were always screamers he belted from outside the box. There's more luck to those in my opinion. Whereas Corner threat is constant in games. Anyway, I hope he does deliver for you as it will make me extremely happy either way!
Open ControlsCheers I would go mental if bardsley scored a screamer.
Open Controls
overprice here i think
downgrade Bardsley too
Sagna --> Rafael. Arsenal def is shocking and Sagna rarely scroresOpen ControlsI got Sagna because statistically the united defence is actually worse (as well as in real life!) and he's 0.8 cheaper. We'll have to see if he can deliver on his assist potential.
If there were any other good cs options with attacking potential below 6m I'd take them. I tried zab, Richards, etc.Open Controls
similar situation here: baines, rafa, sagna, saylor, demel for me.
baines got 4 and the rest all got 2 or less. frustrating as i feel my backline is quite good.
honestly i'm not sure if boyce is worth it. i had him at the beginning of the season. they don't get enough cleanies (only 2 so far) and he has what, 1 goal so far this season?Open ControlsYeah I think boyce is a write off. Not even as effective going forward as I hoped.
That said the last time I wrote him off, he scoredOpen Controls
TW, you still on?
Open Controlssorry i left for a bit as I had some stuff I had to take care of. whats up?
Open ControlsThe Lakers! 😆
Wtf is going on over there? 😀Open Controlswait are you a lakers fan?
are you asking about our results so far or the coaching situation or both?
results - nash is out injured, howard still not 100 percent and kobe is dealing with some injury as well. that means 3 of our 4 best players are either out or struggling with injury. and not sure if our bench is strong or deep enough. hopefully we can pick up someone to add to our second unit.
coaching - I'm really hoping Phil comes back!!! looks like theres a high chance of it happening but depends if our management will allow him to only travel for some away games and if they will give him more power over basketball decisions, and the money he's asking for.Open Controlsplus i don't think the variation of the princeton offence that brown was trying to implement was working.... think it was part of the reason we've had too many turnovers
Open ControlsYeah, it looks like you're trying to get back to the triangle offence of old, which worked so well.
Open Controls
I'm a Suns fan.
Both really. I love how Metta World Peace came out before the season and said they were gonna win a record number of games, and then had the start they had. Your bench is shite because of Nash, Kobe, Gasol and Howard. The coaching situation is a bit farcical after only 5 games into season.Open Controls
just did Michu>Fellaini for free. felt like it was wrong to take Michu out tho 🙁
Open ControlsDon't worry mate, that was my initial plan but I have no enough of fund for that.
Went for Cazorla->Fellaini instead 🙁Open Controls
Bale Cazorla Fellaini Mata Sterling
Berbatov Suarez Tevez
Considering Tevez Bale/Cazorla > RVP Nolan
Which one out?
A) Cazorla
B) BaleOpen Controlswho to play this game week out of ----- Pienaar or Sterlling?
(i have Fellaini & Suares)Open Controlssame issue going with piennar i think
Open Controls
My team is
Foster - Begovic
Ivanovic - Rafael - Cameron - Demel - Davies
Bale - Mata - Michu - McAnuff - Sterling
RVP - Suarez - Holt
1FT 1.5m spare.
Which one or two transfers should I make
possible Holt -> Berba and Michu -> Fellaini.Open ControlsFeck Feck Feck.. my coin toss between Shawcross and Saylor dint go well 🙁 .. was all set on shawcross until i saw Saylor had fallen 0.1 on Friday night.. now i'm 7 points off cause of it 🙁
Open ControlsThe price rises put Berbatov up 1pt (7.2 -> 7.3), but fiso had him at more than twice the threshold (around 61k versus 27k), and he's now at only 2%.
Shouldn't he either go up 2 points or be straight back at 100%+ ? Is it showing wrongly or have 27,000-odd transfers not been counted? Or is it just past my bedtime?Open ControlsMark's already made his transfer. I wonder what he did.
Open ControlsHazard to Mata I bet
Open ControlsOr maybe Michu > Nolan
Open Controls
No, it must have been Tevez to Suarez since he had 0.6m in the bank and now he has nothing...
Or another transfer that used up 0.6m...Open ControlsOh I see...I took it that because he had 0.0m he couldn't afford Tevez > Suarez...interesting.
I hope Suarez gets a yellow next game...no offence 😀 I don't like him muchOpen ControlsSuarez that is...not Mark...I just realised how ambiguous that sounded!
Open ControlsBAN HIM! 😉
Open Controls
He did an early transfer last week as well, which worked wonders with price rises and a good score...
So I wouldn't be surprised to see him using a transfer to gain some value on Suarez this time, he does have amazing fixtures and is in brilliant form...Open ControlsYeah, but when looked at objectively. I see Ba as being Suarez's arch nemesis in value. Suarez looks great next to the expensive guys...but Ba just takes the p*ss for value if he gets back to banging them in once more. And I think Liverpool and Newcastle have about equal threat. Both are being carried by two players.

This is my current squad

Shud I wildcard???? Santi not performing neither is barfa and Defoe mite not get the games now...Tevez the same wit Dzeko!Open ControlsMy brother's transfers before this GW (for a 4 point hit):
Theo in for Santi, CAPTAIN
Fellaini in for Michu
Berbatov in for Jelavic
He has no RVP and his other 2 strikers are Aguero and Suarez.
What a GW for him.Open ControlsMeh, should have captained Berbatov...
😀Open Controls
Here my team, could i have some opinions on my team. what i may need to do.
Bego
riise – demel – rafeal
cazorla – HBA – michu – fellaini
RVP – tevez – berba
i am thinking to transfer out clyne and wilson. maybe i could do just wilson and not take a hit. HBA is a possible transfer also…wilson and HBA maybe…..?
