what to do this week do you think?

Boring move for new STK fullback maybe ( always end up forgetting his name)  ? you can always save the transfer though and go fot 2 FT's next week. But that DEF could do with some new additions.

Do you mean Bauer from stoke? would tgat be my best way to improve defence even with gw31 in mind? Think it may be best to hold and roll to wait for the 2ft nxt week. Will you play your free hit chip in GW31 ?

Yes Bauer, HnR is a good option too. Regarding chip no idea, will make the decision when the moment arrives.

Think i am going Eriksen to replace Sterling, not much to lose on sterling and just 0.4 upgrade for Eriksen.

You doing FH in 31 then?

May not go for FH, got all the attackers needed for that GW which might be a mediocre one ( Bouer from STK / Daniels might come in later on too on FT ). Spurs seems to have the better fixtures in next 3 and Eriksen stats are hinting some big returns. This muscle injury and Spurs have something to fight for compared to City. Might not do it but just feel like it's time to move away from set pattern with 10 odd weeks left.

Did Eriksen + Kane in for Sterling + Aguero. Took a gamble for that final push late in the season.

I had seen you'd done 2 and guessed Kane for Aguero but wasn't sure if you had gone Mahrez or Eriksen for Sterling!

I've already brought in Firmino/VVD for a -4, but I love the look of Leicester's fixtures starting from this week and with the chance that Sterling my not play or if he does his fixture is much harder, is it madness to seriously be thinking of taking another -4 and swapping him with Mahrez?!?!?!?!

I wouldn't take a -4 for someone who blanks in GW31, unless you plan to use FH

Does it matter that I already have 9 players for 31?

To me, the probability for a player who is in on a -4, to make up for that in three games, is low

@69ers: Don't go -8 imo. Sometimes they do work but most time you end up on the wrong side of things, who is your first sub ?

Martina

Thanks @dokdok66 and @Ceci - I'll hold off the -8 I think! Subs are Martina, Mariappa, King (Swansea)

What about this - obvious choice for Captain is Salah but the leader in our main ML is 100 points ahead of me and 50 ahead of second place. He doesn't own Kane but has Salah - good idea to maybe captain Kane in case he explodes so I can catch up a bit?! It's a cash league so pretty important!!!

I haven't decided yet both have same odds to score this week, 45 mins to decide. Chose Salah C just in case couldn't switch in final few mins

Seems that the majority are going with Salah - good time to use Kane as a differential and hope and pray he doesn't leave us high and dry like when I TC'd him over Xmas?! Hahahaha

Wow you TC'd him, that was a bit unfortunate with injury and all.

Switched to Kane.

@Ceci - yes I just thought he'd gotten over his flu and those 2 games on paper were lovely. Oh well at least one less headache over the last few gameweeks!!!

I've left it on him too - let the pants shitting commence in 3hrs 30mins time!!!

Can't be too worried about if's-but's once you pull the trigger it's time to move on to next week mechanically irrespective of the output. Enjoying the journey is more important then the destination

Shaqiri has been absolutely go(a)ld since I got him in! Let's hope the week continues like this, could use a green after three reds

STK need a half decent striker to stick them in back of net, man just keeps creating chances and there's nobody making run at far post..

Yeah I noticed that too, he seems the best player in that team by far

This guy Pritchard is quality on the ball.
