Wainy316 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Saw Arsenal had scored, gleefully opened the Sky app just to confirm that ESR had bagged the goal or assisted it....

Stevo985 Posted December 7, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 7, 2021 40 points all out this week. 3 horrible weeks in a row. 3 weeks ago I was celebrating going from 130k to 30k in one week. Now I'm back to over 130k again Sticking to the plan though, hoping it comes good 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted December 7, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 7, 2021 In what feels like free fall now so have taken a hit to try and stop the rot. Ronaldo in for Kane before his price rise and before his CL game. Dennis in as an enabler for Toney who will fall and miss the next 2 minimum. And the hit is Raphinha and his stinking fixtures out for the bandwagon that is Bilva. I think I'll just keep him in now for the foreseeable, as their fixtures are fantastic. Looking at West Ham over the next few weeks. I still have Jiménez so he's an easy move to Antonio in 2 GWs. Of the rest, I think the striker market is going to develop in the next month. The forgotten boys will be back. Bamford, DCL, Watkins will re-emerge. But I can't ignore West Ham's fixtures. Unless there's an argument that someone like Fornals or Bowen can cover it while you take one of the other strikers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably prices me out of getting Antonio back which could be a problem but I’m hoping the Bilva bandwagon ends soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free up some funds to use elsewhere (Sancho or Rashford maybe). I do like the idea of Watkins but hate owning Villa players due to the emotional aspect. Bowen is intriguing but Antonio appears to be better suited to their upcoming fixtures (flat track bully) and his ownership is scary if he does get his form back. Still worried about him staying fit for the long term though. The Spurs covid outbreak is a major concern though as I've got Son and Regi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 It's somehow completely slipped my mind I have Sanchez in net who now doesn't play and Foster is injured. Could be a -8 for me since I need to sort out Regi, Son and Sanchez. Jesus Christ this season was meant to be smooth and hassle free. Vardy survives this week then.

Brutal timing especially just after the cancelled game. I took a - 4 to remove Son and Regi about 20 minutes before the postponement was confirmed (brought in Dalot and Bowen). Luckily that's all I have from Spurs/Brighton. I've been waiting to shift Foster for weeks but seem to always have something more pressing to fix. Vardy is going but I'm keeping him for Newcastle. Hopefully does well there and they don't cancel the game due to their outbreak (7 players is bad but don't think they're all first team regulars). Will see what happens before the deadline and maybe bring Antonio in early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted December 9, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 9, 2021 I've got Reguilon, Kane and Son. And Toney. Ffffffffffffffffffff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I've got triple Brighton, Toney, Foster and Davis. Down to 9 men as it stands. Will use my 1 FT to go Toney to Antonio but it's not what I wanted to do this week. No keeper, it's never worth the hit to fix that. Have to roll out Livra away at Arsenal plus the rotation risk of Alonso/Havertz. This will not be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted December 9, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 9, 2021 I've gone balls in on -8 to shift Son, Kane and Toney. Reguilon can stay - I can just about afford to bench him and he'll be useful when the Spurs fixtures are rearranged. Had decided against jumping on the Bernardo bandwagon but changed my mind seeing as I had the Son money. Expect he'll either be randomly benched, catch Covid or just have a complete dip in form now.

YouUnastanFren Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Real life was too eventful at the start of the season and I missed deadlines left land right. Luckily my initial squad was okay and carried me through. Lots of burned transfers which always seems like a lost opportunity. I missed the Livramento bandwagon for example and he shot to 4.6 while my bench fodder both dropped to 3.9. Could cost me towards the end of the season. A brutal 37 points last week and down to 122k. This week I've brought in Dalot who as far as I'm aware I've seen play once ever, for about 20 minutes, against us this season. Now possibly I'll be more able to actually watch a few games that aren't Villa and make more informed decisions on transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spurs rearrangements aren't likely to be anytime soon and are February at the earliest I believe (depending how they do in the Cup). Ben Crellin was talking about it last week. I've ditched mine and will get them back nearer the time. I was tempted by Silva but I think he'll drop in form a bit as he's massively over achieving off expected goals and assists (a lot more then even Gundo was last year) at about 145% I think. Gundo is doing well form wise but isn't starting regularly. I decided to go with Bowen for certainly of starts and decent fixtures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
