Mane of for 6 weeks to ACON, abandon ship.

Mane is not airport bound yet. Think you'll find he will feature for Liverpool today at Sunderland

If you don't transfer him out now, you will be stuck for him for the week, meaning you wont be able to transfer him out for next weekend, so i think you'll find it's shrewder to take him out and put in a player who can play two games this week, and he's playing away against a defensive team desperate for a point today anyway :wink:

Sunderland are shite and Liverpool will score for fun. Most players will only be playing one game this week as most premier teams have an easy draw in the F.A.Cup. Expect Mane to bump his price up before leaving.

Stick or twist on Mane this week has got to be one of the biggest decisions going through peoples minds today. One of my teams in with a shout can make quite a good three changes, but all the players coming in will go up on Monday and i can only just afford it. Although I would say Mane looks more likely to score points this week one game or not. Decicions decisions.

Mane will have to make pts this week just too hold his price as he's on the drop

One person in the top 50 had Lukaku.

How many Aguero's in the top 50 ? I imagine a few held off with him being on the bench to start with yesterday.

11 of the top 50 at the window brought Aguero in. Some of them at the expense of Sanchez. Yes, you heard that right.

Highest placed team to bring Aguero in was ABD in second place.

ABD is 8th place?

but I did exactly the same thing (not in the top 50 though :D ), only a matter of time before their prices reverse.

I am talking about teams, and their places, at the 'window'. He was 2nd, but yes, now 8th - much to do with the lack of Pogba and Ibrahimovic, which is surely suicide.

True. But in replace of who? Could argue Kane but his upcoming fixtures are tempting

Having thought hard and long about who else to ditch from my midfield (as well as mane) to accommodate Ali & Pogba, I eventually went for Ozil over De Bruyne as he was injured. Looking like I should have shown all three the door. Down to just outside the top 200 now.

The top guy had a massive week, 133pts. I was thinking my second and third teams had done well in the 80's & 90'sand both moved up well in the top 1,000 but at the same time still dropped further behind the leader.

Getting to that stage again. You know the one where no matter how well your teams do they never seem to catch up. Soon I will just have a couple of mini leagues to think about.

Stuart Harvey seems to be doing particularly well in the seasonal and late league or is that the understatement of 2017.

You have a lovely looking Team in there CBN. A Chelsea Block with a strong Midfield and Front Line and moving up nicely. Good Luck.

Like others on here I am just treading water around the 150th mark, which tbh is a good place for me and will be my highest Finish if I don't screw thing up.

Ha you forgot to mention I put Wayne Hennessey in for Courtois :cry:

But yeah, decent enough if Chelsea continue to shut out but there are a few up there now. The leader with a great lead, a huge team value, and real good differentiation at the back is looking very strong. And if that wasn't enough he has a team in 3rd and 25th!!
