Hi boys, please help me kick sand in my mini league mates faces! never won and always near bottom so i want to win it and kick sand in their faces!

I posted my team before but no comments so hopefully this time i'll get some sound advice!!

Hart
Kompany
Hangleland
O'Shea
Enrique
Sinclair
Nani
Silva
Rooney
Zamora
Suarez

I'm on 184 pts and I'm 50 behind leader!
I have 1 million spare.
Im thinking O'Shea/Sinclair/Zamora - Brown/Mata/either Gervinho,Crouchy or Dzeko.
If I put in Dzeko that would mean 4 City players- only 1 star man out of 4 players, also most people above me would be putting Dzeko in!

Any other options that you can see that I cant would be great input! Than now for any replies.

Sorry pal but I just dont like West Brom and I cant see Long dong that well. I'm defo swapping Sinclair for Mata, I can do that with my spare 1 million! That still leaves me with Zamora. So the next question is- will Brown/Crouchy or Brown/Gervinho or Brown/Dzeko score more points than O'Shea/Long! Or with putting Long in that would allow me 1.5mil to upgrade O'Shea. Decisions decisions

Thanx mate for the reply!

Zamora > Dzeko
Sinclair > Mata

And personally I cannot see Fulham keeping many clean sheets under Jol, and their Europa group is toughish, so I would get rid of Hangerman, and bring in Mertazaker, Arsenal have good fixtures and reckon the Sun will bum him if he shores up their defence even slightly.

only a matter of time before brown is injured. I would do the mata and dzeko changes but pt s taylor in instead of brown hes looked good so far and will get a few goals.

Thanx King Cantana. Only trouble with Taylor is that Newcastle have 4 away games in 5 before next TW :( so I cant see them keeping clean sheets!

Im still thinking Crouchy, as a bit of a gamble with everybody else having Dzeko and with Tevez back (hes been arselicking to Mancini), I think hes going to be rotated no matter how well he plays! Crouchy will play every game and with his height and with the way Stoke play (long ball) I think he'll score goals!

hmmm decisions,

Anybody else?

Doesnt the Zamora > Dzeko + Sinclair > Mata changes come to 50.5m?

Please correct me if im wrong.

Id go with your choice of:

O Shea - Brown
Sinclair - Mata
Zamora - Crouch

The reason for going with Crouch is he will play everygame and Stoke have the same number of games as MCY plus you made a good point with the 4 MCY players making star man pickings slim.

Yes it does Brad thats why I need to find .5 mil, hence O'Shea to Brown!

I am liking Crouchy though!

2 choices now

Hangleland/Sinclair/Zamora - Merts/Mata/Crouch or
O'Shea/Sinclair/Zamora - Brown/Mata/Crouch

so basically who will score more points - Merts+O'Shea or Brown+Hangleland?

Calf and hip strain - doesn't sound as serious as:
'The former Manchester United man will return to the Stadium of Light and look to be fit for Sunderland's home Premier League clash against Chelsea next weekend.'
Though any injury doubt is unwelcomed.

Your team looks really solid! So therefore I'm going to chuck something a bit underground your way...

Hart 4.5 -> Given 3.0 (plenty of star man awards playing for Villa?)
Sinclair 2.5 -> Mata 3.5
Zamora 3.5 -> Dzeko 4.0 or Adebayor 4.5 with your +1mil!

Not sure why you'd want to transfer Hangelaand? He's proven at SDT.

The only other 2 transfers I'd consider would be Nani -> Young as Young seems to be over all the set pieces, and O'Shea to R.Johnson as he seems to stay fit at least!

Don't want to put you off Crouchy but he'll always be a donkey in my eyes, but hopefully he can prove me wrong :D

Hi all. I'm doing quite well at the moment just over 5000 overall.

My current team is

Hart
Kompany
Jones
Collocinni
Enrique
Silva
Nani
Mata
Rooney
Suarez
Dzeko

I think I need to get RVP in but I don't know how?

Dzeko has to go and it looks like I'm going to av to get shut of Jones!

With no money spare I might av to get rid of a good player to compensate :-(

What do you lot think???

I'm open to all offers!!

And keep Dzeko.....I think not!! With Suarez still available to play till prob next TW- I want to keep him!

I don't know if I need to change good players to put RVP in!

I'm now thinking Dzeko and Jones out Sturridge and Walker in and just hope RVP either gets injured or goals dry up!!

Please give me more options....time is running out??

Not bad sir. Thanks for that. I believe Jones is ok now to play next game so at least that's a transfer I didn't want to make!

Hi all, I'm currently 4th in my works mini league of over 100. I was going strong and was in the top 5000 but have hit a bit of a bad patch.

Is it now time to gamble, I'm 70 behind leader and fading fast........Please help

This is my team with .5mil spare

Hart
Kompany
Coloccini
Enrique
Jones
Silva
Mata
Nani
Sturridge
Rooney
Suarez

I need to get Van Persie in and I dont know how the sun paper will take to Suarez after his racial behaviour!!!

So I thought Suarez-RVP, Nani-Dempsey and then possibly change Sturridge or Coloccini????

Other options would be fantastic

Dempsey is not really a gamble i'm sure most of the teams above you already have him...

what about a real gamble on someone like Chamberlain

To Em9999, will he play all games? He looks a very good player but I know Wenger, he'll propably not play him??

If he does, that could be the answer I'm looking for!!!

Could change Nani-Chambers and Sturridge for RVP

Does anybody know how long Jones is out for cause what I'm reading hes out till end of month??

If so - Kaboul or Walker?

Since Chamberlain has come in he has been one of our best players...I dont think he will be dropped.

Regarding Kaboul or Walker....Walker picked up a injury against Wigan but i don't know how bad it is...Just wanted to warn you..I dont know if you already know this site exsist but it is a ace site to get team news from
