If Cech is a massive upgrade over your other starter then the 4 extra appearance points for Walcott/Cech should ensure you break even plus you get the upside of extra games. I would make that move.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124060389050404946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-76050653812191623502011-04-14T12:58:55.803-04:002011-04-14T12:58:55.803-04:00anthony - agree with all your comments. despite Na...anthony - agree with all your comments. despite Nasri's form it's hard to ever transfer out a player coming into a DGW even if he isn't guaranteed 180 minutes. Chelsea rank as the best defensive team from here on by some distance so if you have the spare cash a combo of Luiz AND Terry/Cole is worth a thought. I like Luiz as a must own due to his goal threat and lower price tag.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124060389050404946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-47931748446906889292011-04-14T12:55:36.374-04:002011-04-14T12:55:36.374-04:00Nick - I feel that VdV (who has been dormant in 20...Nick - I feel that VdV (who has been dormant in 2011) is definitely sellable and while the loss of cash hurts I don't think you will be bringing him back (granted he gets the DGW in GW36 but with one of those games @MnC I'm not sure he holds too much value). I like Walcott a lot as a fantasy player and holding him and Nasri does hedge you somewhat against rotation (at the very worst you lock in 180 minutes assuming Arshavin played both games this week). Their fixtures are good and I'd be pretty happy riding out Nasri and Walcott for the remainder of the year, accepting the fact that I will suffer the odd 1 pointer when Arshavin plays. Both have a sufficient ceiling to justify that move if you believe Arsenal can hit the weak teams hard.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124060389050404946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-60121416994938791072011-04-14T12:51:22.780-04:002011-04-14T12:51:22.780-04:00Chris - I should have touched on Tevez here.

With an off week it's really hard to leave such a pricey player on the bench but with @Bla, WH and then the DGW it's hard to get rid of him. Given Chelsea's DGW though I think you made the right choice if you like Drogba. I would not sell tevez for anyone but Drogba or RvP.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124060389050404946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-27021299565941079372011-04-14T09:54:50.154-04:002011-04-14T09:54:50.154-04:00Yeah VDV is crap lately, who cares if you take a h...Yeah VDV is crap lately, who cares if you take a hit of .4 on a guy maxing out at 3 points a game.Chris Oienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07005632583987226406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-9038242822566884162011-04-14T07:03:41.353-04:002011-04-14T07:03:41.353-04:00thinking a doing gordon => cech, vdv=>walcot...thinking a doing gordon => cech, vdv=>walcott for a four point hit. is it worth it?<br /><br />VDV has been so poor lately must be time to drop.markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05138810957119963647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-64468422115162005412011-04-14T04:46:44.730-04:002011-04-14T04:46:44.730-04:00I agreed with Anthony that taking advantage on the...I agreed with Anthony that taking advantage on the numbers of <a href="http://fantasyonthego.blogspot.com/2011/04/on-recap-midweek-formality.html" rel="nofollow"> double gamers </a> is the way to go not transferring out one of their first eleven.<br /><br />Between the three doublers, Chelsea are having the best set of fixtures, no doubt.

Benayoun could even be worth a gamble now he is back from injury. Nick, It's not worth doing the Nasri to Walcott switch, as the idea is to get extra games out of your players, but saying that, Nasri hasn't been in the best of point scoring form lately.fantayfootihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707414061759241200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020279998144194267.post-1101211837752210962011-04-14T00:37:11.215-04:002011-04-14T00:37:11.215-04:00Would you do VDV=>Walcott?
