Moreover, I want Cresswell to replace Dann as WHU fixtures are great imo and CRY are terrible currently. This leaves me with no option but to search for a replacement for KDB.
So I am left with 5.3 to get that mid but cannot really choose from the list.. Albrighton was an option, I thought - but then I looked at LEI's fixtures. Dembele is good at 5.2 but I already have 3 TOT players.. Can anyone give me some advise how to proceed from here on - I feel I may be rushing a bit but Aguero's price will get higher and higher if not acted fast.
Alternatively you could delay your plan for a couple of weeks (not sure how many transfers you are planning to make it must be more than 2) and look to downgrade one of your defenders and free up a bit more cash. It also means you have KDB for the Sunderland match (and possibly for a double after that).
Either way Mr Stanishev, your spend is a bit high in defence, so I'd be looking to downgrade Dann to a Collins/Simpson/Targett type to realease funds.

I daresay Keane will be gone in the summer if we don't win promotion, but he won't be going anywhere this month - barring a silly money offer from somebody (and I know Spurs don't like spending silly money).

Re: GW24 Transfers
Will wait for news on De Bruyne, but it doesn't look good. If the prognosis is bad, he's probably my likely transfer out after the weekend's cup games. To either Silva or Sanchez, depending how soon the DGW is.

I haven't got KDB but am now mighty tempted by Stirling or Silva as their playing time will increase.

Re: GW24 Transfers
Delph and Fernando are fit and fighting for game time with Fernandinho, which means Toure may be pushed forward (it's apparent he doesn't really like doing that defensive stuff) and competing with Sterling and Silva (and Navas) so I would not bet on their Premier League playing time increasing significantly, particularly with all the competitions that Man City are still in.Vsz wrote:I haven't got KDB but am now mighty tempted by Stirling or Silva as their playing time will increase.

It has to be KDB to a Man City mid of their double is in GW25, but if not then I think Payet as his fixtures are good, including 27 and 30.

Re: GW24 Transfers
All hinges around when the DGW is, who starts for City this weekend and how Sanchez looks if he plays v Burnley.
Still going to wait until Tuesday.

Probably KDB -> Silva, followed by Ozil ->Firmino the week after that. Not making any transfers before Monday though.

Re: GW24 Transfers
I'm torn. I have two FTs & just enough in the bank to do KDB/Mahrez to Payet/Sanchez, which was always the long-term plan. I can't afford any rises/drops, and Payet goes up tonight. However, this would mean I go without Silva for the potential DGW25. I'd have one transfer free before GW25 so I guess Sanchez could then become Silva, but that seems counterintuitive.
What would you do?

Re: GW24 Transfers
Actually I have just been looking at a popular Spurs blog and they seem to think it will be Wimmer. They also think that buying a CB could definitely be on the cards now, especially if they can shift the one-paced Fazio out.Stemania wrote:All I'm saying is we don't know for sure who will fill in for Vertonghen - I would guess Dier (though think Wimmer is certainly foreseeable).
There are so many contradictory indications about this that it's hard to know what the end result will be. Dier seems logical to me but I guess it depends how important a role Pochettino thinks he is playing at CM and whether he feels more comfortable adjusting the midfield or just putting Wimmer in.
...is therefore not as true a statement as I thought it was when I wrote it.Ruth_NZ wrote:I don't think it's "hard to say" what Pochettino is likely to do...

Re: GW24 Transfers
Yeah, I'm sure I'd heard something about Fazio possibly leaving too. I think what you said earlier about Pochettino not liking to rotate his CBs was true though - so if it does turn out to be Wimmer who replaces Vert then he could be a fantastic option @ 4.6m up until the wildcard - as you say, with all the other games Spurs have to play the fullbacks and Dier (if he stays in CM) might be prone to missing the odd game - the CBs would presumably be fairly safe from this.Ruth_NZ wrote:Actually I have just been looking at a popular Spurs blog and they seem to think it will be Wimmer.

Dier at 5.3m would be a reasonable choice if he moved to CB I suppose, but not in the same ballpark of value. I doubt he'd be much of an attacking threat either - I'd guess Alder would be the bigger BPS magnet of the CBs too - so maybe then sticking with a punty fullback might not be too much worse. Here's hoping Kevin wimms the battle for the place then....

Re: GW24 Transfers
Tricky, too tricky right now.
Currently have 3 City, 1 Liverpool and 1 Everton player now. Looking good for the DGW, *unless* it is after the blank GW27.
What I was thinking was replacing the injured KDB with Yaya and upgrading Richards to Baines (for maximum DGW25 players, if such will really happen), but this is exactly the wrong move to make if the DGW is post GW27 (since then I won't be able to field a full squad for the GW27 blank). Argh.
What to do? Just play it safe and transfer KDB to Sanchez? I have enough money to do this with one free transfer.

Just play it safe and wait until after the weekend before doing anything. We should have at least an inkling of when the double will be by then. Moving early is likely to backfire either way.Roope wrote:Tricky, too tricky right now.

Yeah that makes sense. KDB price drop means I can't do a straight swap for Sanchez though, although that can be compensated with the other free transfer if necessary.

Same with me, I just made the transfer for Sanchez and a 0.0 bank today. I have two EVE and two ManC players which is a good DGW start if it happens early.

1 FT to use, KDB and Stanislas flagged. 3 DGW players (Moreno, Firmino and Agüero) as KDB is out. I would have liked to roll the transfer but now it's a wait and see if DGW is really happening at GW25.
What is the maximum amount of DGW players you'd go with as there are blanks coming at GW27?

Re: GW24 Transfers
Either 5 or 6 I guess, depending on whether you have an extra free rolled over or not. Could probably get away with an extra one with a keeper too, if you have a playing alternative for the blanks.nufctoon wrote:1 FT to use, KDB and Stanislas flagged. 3 DGW players (Moreno, Firmino and Agüero) as KDB is out.

I have two frees and could do six doubles but seems senseless to me with 27 a blank week for some.
The most common ones are going to be Aguero Lukaku Silva Firmino and Barkley
Everton have tough fixtures stoke and Liverpool away so Barkley can be left
Leaves four and if you already have a Moreno or janmaat etc then five, a sixth could be a second keeper like Elliot but 27 blanks for the same teams (Newcastle, Everton, Liverpool, City) need to be kept in mind
So a 27 bench could be
Elliot, Aguero, Silva, (defender or Firmino or Lukaku)
Two of the defender plus Lukaku plus Firmino would have to go via transfers out for 26 and 27
All of this allows no flexibility for injuries etc which is why I think five outfield doubles plenty and wouldn't bother with Elliot but carry that transfer through if you have two frees now. If only one now then I'd lose a double and just have four outfield doubles.
The main points earner is going to be the Aguero triple captain chip if this dgwk25 comes off, all this isn't as important especially not the non-city players imo. Although Firmino may be worth it too but there are question marks now on whether Coutinho's return and maybe Sturridge could make him a lesser prospect.
If no dgw then KdB to Sanchez for those already with Payet looks good.

Re: GW24 Transfers
Pulled the trigger early to avoid an inconvenient price rise: KDB Firmino.
I'd rather have waited but that leaves me with exact money for Stanislas Wijnaldum if the DGW is early. Stanislas will probably need replacing anyway and I didn't want to be priced out of that. If the DGW is later I'll take a different route.
My rationale on Firmino is that he probably won't play in the FA Cup so the risk of injury should be quite low. And he's a player I want no matter when the DGW is, I'll be happy to bench him in GW27.
