Transfers Gameweek 4 - Sat 11 Sep 11:00 BST

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Just a question for everyone whos transfer in Ronaldo and get rid of Fernandes.
Are you thinking about that Ronaldo May not start the game? Or are that taken into account?

I think he's going to start, given the international ban. I am still not sure if I'll take the hit. [Ronaldo+Jota] vs [Bruno+DCL+4]. Hmmm...

Yes probably. Or you can turn it around and say that Cavani going to start with greenwood on the right. Cavani not playing any int. Games at all.
And then OGS subs Cavani for Ronaldo - so that he can get ovations from home fans. Thats a way to greet players arriving for a new club (same with messi and Sancho).

Messi and Sancho barely had any pre season minutes though while Ronaldo was involved in most of Juve's friendly games. Ronaldo played 90 minutes last night and now has a week and a half off before the Newcastle game, 110% sure he starts vs the Toon!

Planning Ings DCL

Same here.

Me too.

[raoul]

Buendia to Traore for a hit.

I have slight concerns over getting 11 out ... and Villa fixtures stink..

And Buendia needs to quarantine.

Thoughts?

Trincao may be a better bet at the moment. Traore's new position puts him in threatening positions but I am yet to be convinced he'll ever be much use in terms of end product.

anyone see the belgium game last night? did lukaku get injured badly? I see he's been yellow flagged on FPL

[t88]

never mind. I see belgium has another game to go on Wed before EPL returns

[Spinynorman]

Planning Ings DCL

Same here.

Me too.

I have noticed that many people have said that he is injured in a variety of ways though. FPL are showing him as having a muscle injury so one to watch?

[tommyk71]

Lukaku won’t be playing in that one anyway (susp. - yellow cards). Thigh scan will doubtfully show a major injury / I think at worst he doesn’t play the full 90 vs. A. Villa.

[Kris_fiso]

Will Ronaldo start against Newcastle

[eastcentral1]

Will Ronaldo start against Newcastle

Yes

[Bob Newhart]

Will Ronaldo start against Newcastle

He might... or he might not.

[thebillfella]

Will Ronaldo start against Newcastle

No.

Think that all bases covered by us then!

[NorthBankRedemption]

thinking about Martinez, Tsimikas -> Guaita, Livramento

trying to keep funds in the bank if I decide to get rid of Ings later. thinking I'll give him another week and not take a -4

[mikek2010]

so want to get Ronaldo IN but is it better to get rid of Bruno who may lose his attacking treat or Salah ?

[hancockjr]

Wouldn’t want to lose a treat.

[blahblah]

mmmmmm cake

[Spinynorman]

I was all set to do Ings to DCL but now doubt has entered my mind so I might do Targett to Kilman instead.

The latter sounds so un exciting

I like to think that I am unexciting but sensible.

2FT: Daka and Gibbs-White Archer and Jota

[huwdo]

Possibly a short-term move (and definitely not first XI for the subsequent GW)...

Pereira > Tanganga

May take a -4 for Ings > DCL/Jimenez/Dennis depending on my mood and how transfer out are looking

I'm now pondering a -8 for:

Ings > Vardy
Gundog > Gray

Main rationale is that Vardy has a great record against the tops teams, it starts to open up a premium FWD slot for me and both Leicester and Everton generally have good fixtures through to GW7/8 (likely WC..)

But feel very torn. Haven't taken any hits yet and would ideally keep it that way a bit longer...

[Notned]

Fernandes Torres
Wilson Ronaldo

Was frustratingly 0.1m short, so had to also do Tanganga White to make it a -4.

[Tall Paul]

Been struggling to decide all week between getting Ronaldo (+ base price mid) or DCL and Jota. First option means I have to play Barnes against Man City, second needs a -4 to sell Tsimikas (Tierney pensilled in at the moment). Was hoping Klopp's presser would shed more light on how long Firmino is out, but it doesn't look like it did.

[Tonski21]

Probably Tsimikas, Fernandes & Ings Tierney, Jota & Ronaldo for a -4

Want DCL too but it will have to wait a week

[wizardoffire]

Looks like I may have to take a hit this week
Son isnt looking good ---> Torres I think might be the best pick here as will free up some cash
Ings whilst could return has a terrible set of fixtures ---> Jimenez?
Wilson out for an unknown period of time ---> leaves me 11.8 (short .5 for Kane, short .7 for some Portuguese guy) does cover Lukaku though

[From4corners]

2FT: Daka and Gibbs-White Archer and Jota

How can I take out Daka after he scores a goal like this..

[fairfranco]

Ings > DCL

2 transfers for next week, will probably look at Fernandes for cheap (Fornals maybe) and Lukaku or Ronaldo in for Toney.

[Spreadsheet]

Keeping my eye on Ings’s risk of price drop but, if that holds off, then I think I may roll this week to grab a second FT for surgery next GW.

Ings will therefore be benched in my team and I’ll be relying on a Greenwood start (and not Ronaldo!) and DCL to be fit, but will eventually be swapping Ings, Greenwood plus one (sizeable) other for Ronaldo, Jota and an enabler.

[Owsler]

Confused. Isn't DCL injured?

[blahblah]

Confused. Isn't DCL injured?

Last time......

He had been playing with a broken toe when he got a muscle thingy which is why he went off.

In theory he will play with the broken toe again.
