I think that has to be the only explanation for signing both. PvA and Schlupp down the left. But Schlupp further forward I think.Mav3rick wrote:In terms of budget defenders, I'm looking at Palace's next 4 games. 4.8 is the CRD but that's not too over the top. I'm wondering if there's a chance that 5.0 PVA takes Puncheon's place on the left side of midfield if and when Schlupp plays.

OK for a bench-bod? (And not worth a Transfer to get rid of, imho.)

Re: Best Budget Defenders
With a load of wildcards incoming who's the current budget choice? Amat is starting to get very limited minutes again, ideally there'd be a better 4.1 option.

Re: Best Budget Defenders
Stephens 4.0 or yoshida 4.3 saints but one will likely lose place to Caceres soon
Fernandez has Amats place and is 4.2
Cameron back in Stoke team last two and is 4.2 also

Re: Best Budget Defenders
Surely it's Britos (WAT) at 4.3m.
The guy has only missed 4 out of 27 games, mainly due to knocks.
My 5th defender is definitely going to be a starter when I WC, with the bench boost and DGW's coming up, it's critical not to have a guy with a question mark over his head.
I've looked at Danny Simpson and Stones. They've been unpopular this season, but could prove useful with their fixture run and their teams recent run of form.

Re: Best Budget Defenders
good point but Britos PPG is very uninspiring (2.2)
Stones feels like a big upgrade for not much more money. Not convinced he will play every week.
Wouldnt you go Morgan 4.7 over Simpson 4.8 ?

Re: Best Budget Defenders
I would love Stones at such a cheap price, but he's susceptible to rotation. And further, it looks like he's rotated most often in easy home games, which is his best chance at clean sheets. I simply don't trust Pep.ZeroRemorse wrote: I've looked at Danny Simpson and Stones.

Yeah. Probably why I don't pick him up.
Sahko at 4.7m is looking good. CPL have a couple of nice home games and could pick up a result of two on the road defensively.

I'd be very surprised if Stephens lasted in the first team much longer. Once Caceres is deemed to be match fit it will be him and Yoshida until Van Dijk is backBilly Bongo wrote:I'm on a wc and will go with Britos and Stephens

Why not just WC after this GW? IT gives you an extra 3 weeks to decide and see what players will be fit after International break and what defenders will be available.

Middlesbrough's backline just took a potential blow with defensive-minded Karanka sacked. They had good fixtures from GW30 and a possible good GW34 double too.

It could be Pardew. In which case the Boro defenders are killed stone dead for FPL.

35 BOU
36 Hull
Bench Boost 37 probable fixtures
SWA, mid

Re: Best Budget Defenders
Reluctantly going to need a replacement for the dropped FunisMori, budget up to 4.8.
I see Sakho and Britos mentioned on this page, but I think I would like Lovren or Cedric. Anyone else worth a consideration?

With all the injuries at Swansea, what are the chances of Amat getting a game this week at home to Boro? Could do with him starting so i can bench Coleman as i need to also deal with Antonio!

Surprised there's talk on Davies now. You are weeks too late for that train. Rose is very close on full training and replaces Davies soon.

Re: Best Budget Defenders
I do. As mentioned in the transfers thread the next 3 FPL GW deadlines span just seven days. If Poch rules Rose out of this weekend's game then I'll be getting Davies in. With the second wildcard to wield in GW35 or 36, I only really need Davies for the next three GWs anyway.SefSemillia wrote:Nobody fancying Davies until Rose is back?!

Re: Best Budget Defenders
Wouldn't mind a Watford defender from now until gw35 WC.
Kaboul looks a fairly safe puck but highly tempted by Janmaat and his massive attacking threat. But having only played very limited minutes is it too risky?
