I dropped about 3,000 places in the overall ranking yesterday. Everybody who had Villa and/or Fabregas went straight past me. Even worse, my 30 points lead in the Sonic league has almost completely disappeared as well. ĦAy, caramba!
Like Bertrand I did think about going for Villa for a while (had him in the team, but eventually couldn't afford both him and Klose anymore and added Petric instead). I was aware that Villa was the most important goal scorer for Spain (and not Torres), but there were some reports last week that Aragones might be playing with just 1 striker instead of 2, and then picking Torres over Villa. Didn't want to take that risk... I can't really complain though, because I almost dropped Pepe too, but kept him in and he brought in 15 points.
Anyway, after that hattrick I think it's safe to presume Villa will play now.
So that's one transfer. Still thinking about the other ones. Deco has got to go for sure; too expensive for a midfielder that doesn't score much. But the others... Will the Italian defence be better the next game? Does Ribery deserve another chance? Bring in Kuyt now or will Van Persie be starting the next game? Is Klose looking good? Is Modric looking good? (I haven't been able to watch much of the games so far, mostly just the highlights).
