    Vardy assist there goes my Ryan clean sheet, points swap basically
  • edited November 2019 Posts: 17,821
    Just saw I need Salah to stay benched now

    If Liverpool can control the game in second half, I think he won't be risked.

    I hope as Cantwell currently on 8 points [-O<

    Plus bonus, right?

    A lot of managers (in our league too) captained Vardy. It's good if he does well this gameweek - but not too good, haha!

    I'll be getting 13 points via automatic substitutions due to Salah & Janmaat not playing: Traoré (5 points) and Cantwell (8 points).

    Bench hauls like that save game weeks

    Looks like Mané captain with Vardy vice was a mistake…

    Vardy was my vice, I need Sterling (C) to score twice and I will be happy

    A guy in one of the mini leagues I'm competing in has a really similar team to mine, only he captains different players (this gameweek, Vardy). I'm 70 points behind before this weekend, and i will be more now…

    Sterling disappointing again I may get rid after today, in fact I will get rid he is not delivering at all relative to his value. Third of the season in there are cheaper better options

    Tempted to take a 8 point hit to freshen my team up

    I was all set to transfer him before the deadline today, but I didn't feel confident enough to do it. Will have to do now though, and I have a few potential transfers I might look at doing.

    KDB offers more value at this point than Sterling - as do the two others. Son is one of the transfers I'm likely to make. Question is if it's best to wait until midweek games are done, or try and do the transfer before the price rise(s) that's likely to happen.

    Exactly and Sterling has dropped in price I don't want to lose more value, I will likely get KDB after this current match

    May go Salah to Mané

    It's always a risk doing early moves, but sometimes you're just forced to act quickly. Might get Son tonight, and then - if possible - hold on to that second transfer as long as I can.

    Falling asleep before the deadline is gonna hurt, I would have switched back to Vardy as Captain.

    Done a few mock transfers I am trying to fit too many midfielders into my team, you can't have every one. Going with Son and KDB for now

    I was on Vardy as captain for quite some time. Missed out on quite a few points there.

    Son and KDB are good transfers I think. Having them will be an asset to your FPL team.

    My bad Captain is clouding my judgment lol I need to not go crazy with transfers. My teams fixtures are good next GW

    Or I could do Son to Sterling and go without City assets for a few weeks there fixtures with a potentially depleted side not great

    Gr Sterling goal ruled out by VAR games finished

    Shocking by my midfield so far, Martial needs to bail me out (thank god for Cantwell)

    I think next week looks more promising, now that the City-Chelsea fixture is done.

    I don't think it will be necessary to have that many City players on current form. KDB might be enough for me, given what I can do with the cash from selling him. I can upgrade Connolly or Saka, I can upgrade in defence or even get a second playing goalkeeper.

    One way of looking at it is the next wildcard is 6 GW's away and I can almost remove myself from Pep Roulette Christmas headache. I am going to Son from Sterling with plenty in the bank and will just play the fixtures. Once we can Wildcard again City will have better fixtures and probably be in better shape

    Edited: Done no more Sterling Captain dilema

    Good point re. the wildcard. With the next one available so soon, that will make playing the fixture run much easier. I'm sure City can still deliver during this period, but with so many other players with (on paper) easier games, it might be worth going down that route instead of the Pep roulette.

    Same here. Don't like making early transfers, but I have one transfer available in case something happens midweek.

    Son looked good from the eye test POV, Jose teams generally don't score lots of goals though Son will be involved with most I think and Bournemouth at home I had to get Son in for that.

    I am thinking of getting in Bernard Silva as City cover
