Finally decided to start Naughton ahead of VvD and make no transfers in defence, instead selling Sterling for David Silva. One a good decision, second not so much, esp if Sterling starts.SirMattBugsby wrote: Defence did well for me last time. Cleansheets from VvD and Sanchez and finally! A goal from Dunk on the right side. Got his points from second sub though so slightly lucky.
GW 30
In a dilemma this week. VvD plays Man United away which could or could not be a CS. Spurs play Bournemouth away after that disappointing CL result. Swansea and Brighton play away while Ogbonna is not certain.
Right now I'm on (in order):
Foster (Elliott)
Sanchez Ogbonna VvD (Naughton Dunk)
I could get Schindler or Lascelles in but think I might be wasting a FT when all of them are playing, a CS could come from anywhere and I have Sterling to deal with. Gameweeks like these are when I usually get to bank my transfer (and get jammy Dunk points )
Any suggestions will be welcome.
Not getting Lascelles or Schindler was wrong on three counts:
1) Missing the CS this week.
2) Losing a chance to strengthen my defence for GW 31, or 32 in case of Lascelles.
3) Played Quaner instead. I really thought he could get me an attacking return
The one big positive from this is that I now know which DEF has to go: Ogbonna. My plan was to keep him till DGW 34 but no longer. Sacked in the morning.. (or maybe one more game since it's against Southampton)
Overall, my backline will be the reason I WC in GW 32 or 33. Going cheap has cost me not only CS points, but attacking returns and team value as well. This season has been a learning curve in that respect.
