Re: single entrant stories
I accidentally stuck Kane in yesterday (was messing about with options (clicked through, yes, yes, ye...n0000!) when putting Richarlson in, worked out ok!
17pts with the 7 playing today/tomorrow.

Re: single entrant stories
Regretting the sideways Jota to Pereyra move before this game. Wish I'd shifted him to someone cheaper so I could do Coady Arnie to Richarlison Alonso.
Aguero cheering me up tho

Re: single entrant stories
Anyone else thinking of binning Sanchez for someone tonight? Mane for me I think ...

Re: single entrant stories
@thomarse yes I am, Utd look a troubled ship so I'm shedding my only Utd asset, Sanchez tonight. I already have Salah and Mane so I'm replacing him with Zaha, this will give me enough funds to upgrade Jota, who has until the international break to convince me he has a future in my team.

Re: single entrant stories
Sanchez to Mane today I think. Jota has one more chance to impress and will be making way for Richarlison next Saturday afternoon if he gets nothing in the early kick off.

Re: single entrant stories
Worth looking at Keita as a bit of a differential over Mane?

Re: single entrant stories
Find myself in the top 4K before palace game, so having a tinker.
FAB ALLISON
ROBERTSON
MENDY
DIRTY SANCHEZ WBA
OZIL MANE
ZAHA
B SILVA
SALAH
RICHARLISON
AGUERO
KING
I think that strengthens the side albeit with no spurs coverage.
Keeping an eye on King for now.

Re: single entrant stories
72 for the week for me. Sat on 143 total as well. 3040 overall. Looking at Coady and Jota as many others are but will see how things pan out up to international break.

60>141>3712 AWB sitting out the weekend and Vestergaard doubtful so a bit light in defence this week.

Keep WB, he only misses one game and look good defensively and going forward. Jota is on my radar to get rid and Sane seems out of favour. Lucky both play first on Saturday

Re: single entrant stories
Who would you swap Jota for in that price bracket? Maddison an option but can't see anything much better!
Agree keep AWB. Still a good haul for 3 weeks!

Been at work all day, how did Jota play for Wolves? Thinking Jota to Pereyra or Will Hughes tomorrow, tinker?

Re: single entrant stories
Sounded not too bad actually but i still made a change to save some cash. Not a tinker imo.
More of a question of what's everyone doing with Richarlison? Chelsea player tomorrow maybe?

Re: single entrant stories
Concluded I simply cannot afford Kane and Aguero. So will keep Aguero until it seems that Kane is the better option. Also don't think I can afford Alonso on top of Mendy and Robertson, so brought in trippier for the moment instead.

Re: single entrant stories
So you're saying it's allowed to run several teams in one single championship? And what happens if the final pits two of your teams against each other? No matter what the situation is, you're losing and winning...

Re: single entrant stories
I've had 2 good weeks followed by 2 meh weeks. 43 points this week, 228 pts overall and 8k position.
Zaha missing out at the last min was annoying, but I think he'll be back for the next game so I kept hold of him. My patience ran out with Willian though who is splitting mins with Pedro it seems and the Spaniard is edging it, so I replaced him yesterday with Ramsey, who was very lucky to get a KC yesterday I thought. Arsenal's run looks good and I think Ramsey's place is more secure than Mkhi and Ozil, please stay fit Aaron....
Jota is looking the next to go and I really feel I need to get Alonso in, he's a left winger with clean sheets points and is looking a must, rumours of his attacking being restricted this year look totally false. So I'm looking at replacing Jota with someone Β£2.9 or less, Seri being the current favourite. That gives me enough to change PVA to Alonso and run with 2 Chelsea defenders as they look like being very good this year. Is anyone daring to go Alonso-less?
Looking at Bram's site the obvious time to do those transfers so I can flange from one to the other is the 6 and 7th October. That seems a long way off, and not sure Jota is worth holding for another 4 games, hmmm. He has Burnley at home next so will see how he does in that, and its only Utd at OT after that so a hold for now
Bah, just as we get going we have another International break bore-fest, yadda yadda Gareth's waistcoat, yawn!

Re: single entrant stories
Another 50 + pt week for me so I'm up to 212 points and in the top 20k. Quite happy with that, but not happy I've used 5 subs already to get to this position. Still they do give us a lot of subs these days...

Re: single entrant stories
Frustratingly, I started the season with Azpi instead of Alonso, with all the talk of potentially reduced attacking output from Chelsea wingbanks I thought he'd be the safer option while still providing assist potential - what a swing that's been. I was initially thinking it will even out between them over the course of the season, but looking at the underlying numbers I'm not so sure it will, so I'm starting to think about how to swap them around effectively. I've hampered myself by doing a short notice swap of Zaha -> Trippier yesterday and going five at the back in the process. I want to try and maximise games somehow, but part of me thinks just a straight swap of Azpi -> Alonso for the Cardiff fixture may just be the answer I'm just confused at the moment, so I'm glad for the international break to think things over and maybe it will solve itself somehow
