Hahah like when do you plan on using your wild card and is there a criteria you follow for picking up bandwagon players? Also do you happily cop 4 and 8 point hits..?

I dunno, just generally why are you ranked so high? :P

Ah right well lets see if I can explain this well. Basically I started off with a very good team, luckily my picks of players like Hazard, Michu and Tevez all paid off so I didn't need to use any trades early to bring in these players who were going to go up in price. Since then I have only used my free transfers to pick up other players who should increase in price such as Jenkinson, Kacaniklic etc. That was until this round where I used 3 (so losing -8) so I could bring in Berba, Sterling and also get rid of De Gea before he dropped in price.

Going to go along with this team for a while and watch them rise in price, then once performances start to drop, or they have all increased in price a fair bit I will use my wildcard to get rid of the lower priced players and bring in better players :)

Awesome cheers man.

A real focus on bringing in those value picks. Very nice :)

Yep it's all about increasing the value of your team otherwise you have no extra money to spend. Currently my team is valued at 103.5 (I think)

sounds awesome Koop, where are you going?

I'd bench Reid and probably Clyne, then maybe Kacakikinic as well so you play a 3-4-3

[Tominator]

OK here is my dilemma

After my debacle last week I have strongly considered using the wildcard this week to really sure up my team

MY TEAM NOW:

Foster (Ruddy)
Evra Kompany Shawcross (Figueroa, Simpson)
Cazorla Toure Hazard Michu Dyer
Tevez Graham (Lambert)


PLANNED FREE TRANSFERS:

Evra -----> Gibbs
Lambert/Graham -----> Podolski

PLANNED WILDCARD TRADES:

Evra -----> Gibbs
Kompany -----> Ivanovic
Simpson -----> Reid (WHM)
Graham -----> Podolski
Lambert -----> Berbatov


My question is, with those trades in mind....

Is it smart to use the wildcard this week or am I better off using the two FTs this week and the wildcard later?
