Re: Dumped Kane
I didn't know if you used a transfer to bring him back in again

Re: Dumped Kane
nah i got cold feet and thought while i was playing 2 up front and Walcott didnt play too well last week i'll swap him to Mitrovic.
You guys have got me worried about Kane though, and especially after he got that penalty and started getting shots on target.
I won't be putting Kane back in but i am tempted to "limit the damage" by going from enabler Mendy @ Leicester to Moura and having him as captain for the next couple of games. I can also leave him in for another 2 or 3 after that.
Pretty sure the extra cash i got from going from Kane to Mitrovic can be put to good use and get me some decent points.

Re: Dumped Kane
Kane to Mitrovic transfer points gained or lost.
Kane 9pts, i wouldn't have captained him as i was going Zaha who would have got 8pts as captain.
Old team
Kane 9pts
Zaha 8 pts
New team
Mitrovic 24pts.
Zaha 4pts
Total gain so far 11pts.
The funds raised from this give me the chance to swap out Mendy (the enabler from Leicester) and give me almost 10m for a defender or midfielder for 5 games.
The window for doing this has now increased from 3 games to 5 games by moving the Kane transfer forward. I would not have considered it for 3 games, but 2 transfers for 5 games......i'm going to go for it.

Re: Dumped Kane
Strange that no-one so far has gone Kane for captain in the other thread. I now really don't understand why people think it's such a mistake if they aren't captaining him. Sure it might end up being a mistake but if everyone is so Kane mad why not captain him?

Re: Dumped Kane
Not strange at all, I think most put him in due to his fixtures looking good, the questions regarding your decision were based on you having him in the overhaul and taking him out a week later with his best looking fixtures still to play.
Aguero and Kane both obvious choices this week but would think most will edge aguero over Kane.
If they both get a hatty it's win win

Re: Dumped Kane
Probably Aguero (C) and Kane.
Hope you have a big sofa to hide behind tomorrow

Re: Dumped Kane
it's going to be an interesting few days. on one hand no kane and aguero, on the other i've got captains for all 3 days where as it seems alot of managers haven't. so i'm hoping even if i do lose points to kane/aguero it's possible i could make it back with my other 2 captains.
it also looks like i'm going to change my mind this week about my t2 captain it's now between boly and richarlison.

I've captained him in my other team, so don't mind either way

Re: Dumped Kane
My players scores look like binary
Serves me right with Kane, but feel unlucky dumping Aguero and he scores just as the commentators say he's about to be taken off.

Re: Dumped Kane
You were lucky with Aguero, not unlucky.
Home games vs lower table.sides are prime candidates for Aguero big hauls.
You were lucky he scored just 7pts

Re: Dumped Kane
so i dump him because of concerns over game time. Pep has Jesus ready to come on before Aguero scores, and you think i'm lucky.wandacatvenus wrote: ↑29 Sep 2018, 17:06 You were lucky with Aguero, not unlucky.

I called it right and missed out by a few seconds. It wasn't a case of Jesus coming on because Aguero scored, Jesus was going to come on in the next break of play. I call that unlucky.

Re: Dumped Kane
Old team
Kane **CAPT** 38
Mendy 2
New team
Mitrovic 1
Richarlison **CAPT** 8
So this Kane transfer has cost 2 transfers and i've gone from gaining 11pts last week to now having a loss of 20pts.

Re: Dumped Kane
Well done. Some you win, some you lose. At least i captained Kane in team 1 which is the one i'm not taking unneccessary risks with or many transfers with.

Re: Dumped Kane
It's looking like nothing lost by dumping Kane. Not one of my finest moments but not the disaster most predicted.
