Re: Gameweek 8 Transfers, Deadline; Saturday 15 October 2016, 11:30 BST
Pickford/Jaku
Coleman Holebas Evans Lovren Amat
Firmino Sanchez Sterling Antonio Capoue
Aguero Lukaku Benteke
2 FT, 0 ITB.
If it was just 1FT, i would have rolled the transfer. But now i'm thinking of doing Coleman & Capoue -> Vertonghen & Coquelin with 0.6 ITB.
I haven't been playing Capoue anyway (So Coq can warm the bench), it would release 0.8m, which would leave exactly 0.6m for Antonio -> Son/Sterling for next week (I might have to pull this tomorrow itself, as both are gonna rise. Hopefully Son's absense is gonna slow it down). Or i can upgrade Jaku to probbaly Marshall/Foster. Saints' fixtures are tricky, so not fancying a Lovren to Saints def. I would love to get rid of Evans, but there is none in the 5.0 region atm.
What do you guys think?

if i wasn't at 2 transfers i might have rolled it over, but probably end up doing Sterling --> Walcott doubling up on Arsenal for the next 3 games.

No idea what to do, especially with all of the potential restings etc, so I think I'm going to roll by default. Zzzzz.

If you can get some Liverlove in too and bulk out your Charlie's with the best fixtures all the better and folk like Costa, Kak & Payer can't be ignored but ultimately it's about the 'in form' teams and their players.
As I would like England managers to get through their thick, media addled skulls, it's all about form

Echoing an earlier post, I'm defaulting to rolling over. I don't like any of the choices for this week, especially ones that restrict my options going forward. Unfortunately every transfer restricts those options as I want to have 2 transfers the way the fixtures are shaping up!!

My defence is weak.
I'm pretty settled on using my free transfer on Massauku Cameron
Is Valencia/ Williams Stones/ Zabaleta/ Mustafi worth a -4?

Re: Gameweek 8 Transfers, Deadline; Saturday 15 October 2016, 11:30 BST
I have 2 FT, but need to use both if I'm going to get an Arsenal (or Spurs) defender which is probably my main objective this week, apart from possible getting rid of Janssen.
Could do Coleman Mustafi funded by Foster Grant. Foster has awful fixtures next 4 weeks anyway, and Grant will hopefully work together with Pickford.
Another alternative is obviously to just downgrade Janssen to Defoe or Deeney or even Benteke, but not sure who to pick yet, or if I want to move to 3-5-2 next week and get Son.
Edit: Perhaps just do a boring Kone Pieters and bank the 2nd transfer together with 0.1 itb. Makes way for a shift to 3-5-2 next week if I want also.

Thought I'd save mine, but went with Valencia Bellerín instead.

Antonio > Arnautovic

Ended up banking it. Pleased as I'm way too trigger happy usually. Saying that fully expect an Arsenal defender pick (Bellerin or Koscielny) to score and get a cleanie this week.

Valencia - Bellerin
Seriously considered Montreal and Mustafa to save the extra 0.5m but think Bellerin probably warrants the extra 0.5

I ended up making the switch to Walcott afterall but after Sterling's drop. I did captain Walcott as a result so i've got that going for meWeisenwolf wrote:I kept Sterlingslyger wrote:So then, keep sterling or bring in Walcott?Weisenwolf wrote:Yep
