SUN DREAM TEAM TIPS – FFGEEK SUN PUNDIT SIMON ROWLEY UPDATES US ON HIS TEAM




Team overall rank

With the busy Christmas period over, its time for an update on my team. I’m currently on 1407 points and in 3941 overall rank (correct as before the FA cup games). So doing well, but I’ve dropped down recently from a highest ranking of 1412 in the middle of December.

I’m 34th in the FFGeek classic League out of 375 and 7th in the 40 member Head to Head league

Here’s the team.  The points total is as of Monday.

The recent fall down the rankings was mainly down to injuries (Valencia, Jesus and Salah), loss of form (Lukaku and Hazard), and the eternal problem of rotation (Gomez and Christensen). To help rectify this, I did 3 transfers last Friday, taking out Smalling (who’d come in for Valencia), Lukaku and Jesus, and putting in Rojo (purely to free up money), Pogba and Aguero.

So that is all of my transfers done now for January.

Aguero

With the league cup semi’s taking place this month, and City’s fixtures, Aguero looks an absolute must have (even more so with Jesus missing for 2 months). I’d ideally have liked Sanchez instead of Pogba, but funds weren’t there, to take advantage of their extra fixtures, but I’m happy enough with 5 players in the semis (fingers crossed for a City-Chelsea final now for me).

Man City

I’ve seen people going really heavy on Man City attacking players, but if they were to win the league in March (highly possible), they could end up resting a lot of players, and concentrating purely on the Champions League and FA cup (assuming they progress in both).




January transfer window

With the transfer window open now, its still possible for some big names to come and go (Van Dijk and Coutinho being 2 of the first), so I could end up having a few nail biting moments now that I have no transfers left this month, but that’s just the way it is unfortunately.

As usual I’ll try and answer any questions, and all transfers and updates will be posted on twitter (@upthevale1). Good luck to everyone!
