Wainy316 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Used mine on Bruno last season when Man Utd played 3 times in one GW. He only ended up playing 2 of them but his haul was great (aided by the obligatory penalty against us). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted November 1, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 1, 2021 I famously used mine a couple of seasons ago on Mane when he had a double gameweek with great fixtures. He got injured 20 minutes into the first fixture. 1 point 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted November 2, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 2, 2021 I've yet to use 3-4-3 this season, which would normally be my default. Not deliberately. Just how it's panned out so far. And I'm looking at 433 again this week, pending a transfer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted November 2, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted November 2, 2021 Conte confirmed at Spurs just before their fixtures swing. Suddenly Son looks a lot more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll be donwgrading one of my chelsea defenders to a 4ish million defender to be my bench sub, start playing Livramento, and use the money to try and get Son. Also having 3 strikers is looking like a waste at the moment. They're just not performing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm on 4 premium defenders. I have 2 FTs and could go to Son this week and bring Kane in for a -4 next week (and still have enough for Kane->Ronaldo in 15/16 if needs be). It's very tempting. It means Dias becoming Omobamidele but that's OK. I have Rudiger, Trent, Cancelo & Livramento. The alternative is Dias to James, Vardy to Kane, Havertz to Greenwood & Townsend to ESR. Gives me a stronger middle but a 443 squad which is a headache. The worry is Spurs will take a while to get into stride. Reguilon is going to become a good shout too. A 5.0 winger in a good defensive side. Conte plays a back 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted November 2, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 2, 2021 I think my plan is Rudiger to Chalobah, Iheanacho to fodder (probably Davis) and Raphinha up to Son. Do that over the next 3 gameweeks or so Then I've got enough to go Mane to Ronaldo (or Kane if Kane is killing it) in two moves come GW 15/16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted November 2, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 2, 2021 James is probably going up tonight so I've a decision to make on whether I want him in or not. If I don't bring him in at 5.7 then he's probably not coming in for the foreseeable. Their fixtures aren't fantastic after this week and I don't want to be chasing points.

I did the same and still regularly think about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I already have Son, which is nice. So might use a free transfer to get Regulion as well. This Chelsea roulette is so annoying. Azpi dropped in price again for me this morning. I’m holding off getting rid as I still think he’ll come back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted November 5, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted November 5, 2021 Hate taking hits but strongly considering a - 8 to get Son in. I can't get him with a - 4 unless I drop someone I don't want to (like Vardy) or bring in someone I don't massively want. But I can do: Havertz to Son Jiminez to Toney Azpi to Reguillion Which feels a much better team, especially in the long run and that I hope has a chance to even out the - 8 (maybe not in one week mind).

Farlz Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Have 2 free transfers but just using the 1 for KDB to Son. No need to use both this week. Decision for me now is benching one of Cancelo/Dias for Hwang or use the 541 for possibly the first time ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted November 5, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 5, 2021 I've used my free to bring Son in. Wondering if Reguilon for Dias is worth a hit, with the money saved ready for a potential push to get in Kane or Ronaldo in a week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted November 5, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 5, 2021 Could have done without Son going up last night. Thanks Vitesse I need to pull the trigger today now to make sure Kane doesn't go up too. My only choice is do I bring him in before the deadline and have him for the Everton game, or bring him in after the deadline and keep Vardy for the Leeds game. I'm thinking Vardy suits Leeds. But either way, it means my international break transfers are going to be done worryingly early. I don't like doing it but it's once instance where I simply have to pull the trigger or rip up my roadmap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Similar situation. I have 1m ITB, 2 free transfers. I don't need to change anything for this weekend so I was going to shift McCarthy to Sanchez as I prefer them as a long term hold. Just tried to do that and then look at how to get from Havertz to Son and it's not as easy as I'd like. I'd have to replace Raph with a 4.4m player. Also considering shifting Vardy out now for a cheaper forward to free up funds but I like the match up. Even with values changing I don't want to make early moves over the Int break as covid could cause real issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted November 5, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted November 5, 2021 I was going to ditch Vardy to make funds for Son but that match up looked to good. Watch him do nothing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
