Transfers Left:- 19

Value of Team:- 49.4m


Preseason:
Kouyate 3.2 Kolasinac - Hopefully he will stay for the season, and plays Friday, subject to Arsene
Henderson 3.6 Salah - Not sure if I'll be able to be transferring before the Liverpool KO. Henderson? Why?

First GW transfers
Taylor 2.6 Palmer An enabler, who may fire....
Gundogen Carroll. Bargain FK'er of a Swan
Sanchez 7.0 Kane. Sanchez didn't start, Kane does.
Cahill 4.3 Jones to afford Lulu, I wonder how long he will be fit for and selected?
Austin 4.7 Lulukaka Thank you for the 1 point Mr Austin.

Second GW transfers
Rose 4.1 Walker Erm, he is playing and couldn't think of anyone else

Third GW transfers
Walker Mendy Erm, he isn't suspended and is a bit cheaper

Some time ago:
De Bruyne 5.7 Mkhathing While KdB may seem good on paper\screen he has looked far from worth 5.7m TFF pounds this season. Mkh is cheaper and plays for the next Champs...
Palmer Mooy I picked the wrong one, so best fixed sooner.....

8th Matches
Mendy Tarkowski - Mendy is broken, and Tark seems like a top Enabler thing.
Mooy Sterling - I read something about Sterling scoring with a ridiculous percentage of shots, and plays for the top scorers this season..... (Mooy is a pants Enabler.)

11th Matches
Mkhathing Erikkson Mkh has been pants since Pogba has been crocked, if Spuds can sort out their "home" results against lesser teams they should score loads?

14th Matches
RLC Carroll I have a sneaky feeling that Woy may have cracked the crystal into one of those football team things

Christianthing Jones Jones is fooked
Morata Lulukaka I wanted Hazard

17th Matches
Zanka Christianthing He's cheap
Wilshere RLC Yep, you have read correctly
Hazard Morata Morata is zonked, cold etc and I wanted Eden
Lulukaka Jesus 5.9 the Flat Track Bully returns for the routinely rested Jesus - maybe it is because he has a big event in a few weeks?

Transfers Left:- 23

Value of Team:- 50

Reasons for Transfers: Replacing 2 of my(our) 5 injured players

Rose Yoshida - Rose injured, saints have 'easy' start
Gundogen Pogba - Gundogen injured, man u have good start (forgot I'd done these 2 transfers )
Cahill Valencia - cahill straight red, Man u have good start
Pogba Fernandinho - Pogba injured, Fernandinho a regular (at the moment) and getting extra points
Austin Kane - Austin not getting much game time (god knows why not, Kane 'revving' up
Kane to Vardy - temporary change for points (hopefully)
Taylor Otamendi - finally got rid of Taylor! [the points I could f had]
Vardy Kane - waste of 2 transfers on Vardy
Lukaku Countinho - Lukaku looking tired, hopefully Coutinho is fresh (and committed)
Coutinho to Salah - so much for Coutinho!!!
Kane to Sanchez - 1 week only???????
Jesus to Lukaku - 'easy' Man u fixtures
Henderson to Ramsey - Henderson not getting points
Eriksen to Sane - Sane scoring well
Lukaku to Aguero -better chance of points at the moment??
Ramsey to Aguero - Ramsey injured

Transfers Left:- 19

Value of Team:- 49.5

Initial reconstruction complete two enablers for a non starter & an overpriced midfielder. KWP remains a temporary fix but have funds to replace him now.
Reasons - replacing deadwood with my must have Lukaku & Willian pick of the sub 4.5 midfielders
Rose KWP short term, but bargain while I sort my team out & don't want someone who wants to leave
Cahill Ward . Freeing up cash for elsewhere. Chelsea thuggish defender ? No thanks
Gundongan Alli Only cost 5m (ish) & better than Ozil. How can you leave him out ?
Austin Kane Former not 1st choice, the latter the only choice
Taylor Stephens Non starter replaced by cheap regular with easy fixtures
Henderson Loftus Cheek. Never liked Hendo and cheap enabler provides some flexibility
Loftus Cheek Richarlison Palace in disarray , looks like a good signing for Watford
Walker Peters Dawson Can now afford to replace shortterm fix
Stephens Jorgensen Cheaper and more likely to keep his place
Alli Mkhitaryan Former struggling for form, Micky a cheaper alternative to allow Willian to be released
Willian Sane Finally raised sufficient funds to replace Willian with a decent midfielder
Dawson Jones . Dictated by injury - defensive Mourinho makes Jones the obvious value choice
Kane Salah. Another injury driven change. Liked the look of ever present Salah vis a vis Pep rotated alternatives
Mkhitaryan Kane Micky struggling for points, Kane back early V Palace seemed too big a risk to miss
Jones Sanchez Injury taking too long, Sanchez ever present
Jorgenson Tarkowski Should have done this a month ago , reasons obvious
Lukaku Aguero Tougher fixtures & Zlatan back , Aguero rotation a problem but still looks the right switch

4 more over the past couple of weeks
Aguero Lukaku too much rotation from Pep
Sanchez Rojo spoke too soon 3 matches Jones swapped injuries
Ward Christensen injured , Burnley run surely comingto an end and Christensen cheap & in favour

Eriksen a 2 for 0 over Hazard with a view to a permanent replacement as the points dried up the second I transferred him in.

The moment I went to three United defenders it all went pear-shaped. And Valencia seems to have one of those "oh don't worry it's only a minor strain. Six weeks later..." type injuries.
Concerned at not having Sterling so in he comes.
Need to wind me neck in on the transfer front now
