1) I cbf planning but seems ok.
2) Kagawa
3) Hazard is a spud get him out imo won't adapt to the epl's physicality.

1) I agree :P
2) Tough... I'm going Valencia I feel.
3) Strongly disagree :P

If Hazard can't adapat to how phyisical the EPL is then Kagawa certainly can't.  The Japanese have never been known for their physicality.

Kagawa - 64kg
Hazard - 71kg.

Hmm...

Exactly!

I always thought about looking this up.. never been bothered though. Nice work Chels ;)

Do you know what physicalism is? It's not about weight, it's about build. And Kagawa has a much better build then Hazard, as shown in the Bundesliga against the big tough defenders of Germany like Hummels, Subotic, Boateng...while Hazard had weak players in L1.

Ahh yes, the weak defenders like Sakho, Alex and Abbdenour...

Is having Rooney and Kagawa in the same starting lineup too risky?
Who takes Van Persies spot at Arsenal now?

Is it logical to use your wildcard in GW2? Because if not Ill edit my team, but have stacked up on all the guys facing shower opposition GW1

Federici (Krul)
Baines,Lescott,Williams (Hangeland,Barnett/Clyne)
Hazard,Yaya Toure,Sinclair,Walters (Gunthrie)
Torres,Aguero,Pogrebnyak

3 Manchester City players
2 Chelsea players
3 Reading players




Is it sensible to use the wildcard GW2? Because Im thinking Toure -> Bale, Torres -> Holt, Sinclair -> Kagawa and Gunthrie to Pienaar in GW22

Jukes

I'm planning (I know right!) to use my wildcards around GW 6 and then again with a month to go in the season.

No point using your wild card for just 4 trades! Week 2 is too early to use it for sure.

Also jukes the second wildcard can only be used during the jan transfer widow, or have they changed it this year?

Is it stupid to use it GW2 though?

Jukes

I'm pretty sure you can use them at any time.

Yes.  GW2 is only the second round of the season, so if you need to use it that early you have not set your team up well at all.

yeah CF is right, the 2nd one can only be used in January

One wildcard can be played at any time. The January Wildcard can only be used after Gameweek 21 starts (1 Jan 11:30) until Gameweek 24 ends (2 Feb 11:30); as the January wildcard isn't available until after the Gameweek 21 deadline, the earliest these transfers will be active is Gameweek 22

I am a fan of using it early if your side is completely showere, but wouldnt use it GW2, anyone can have up and down weeks, but the prices generally dont change a great deal. if it looks like a few guys might increase in value, i think you are probably better to give up 4 points than use your wildcard, and change your side gradually over the first few. i do though generally use it by about GW10ish

So now that RVP will be at Man U, do we drop Rooney? I was thinking of heading in with Pogrebnyak, Aguero and Torress now. :-\
