Any glaringly obvious transfers you'd make to this? Otherwise probably happy enough to bank

Guaita
TAA Robertson Laporte
Salah Son Redmond Deulofeu
Aguero Laca Jiminez

Subs: Tielemans, AWB, Duffy

You must have been very close to the top of the world GW rankings? I think the highest score anywhere this week was 135!
I’m at 6,332 for GW score, think the highest now was 164 overall

How much do you have in the bank?

Got 124(-4) which I'm pretty fecking happy with.

There's no real point in thinking "I could have done this or done that" tbh, hindsight is always 20-20. Take the good score and run with it.

Unless you're someone who captained Duffy/Dunk in which case :lol:

Besides Liverpool and City playerd: Any good advice on defenders to buy for GW36+37?
Checks to see who is playing Huddersfield...

Yoshida is cheap and might pop up with a goal and bonus pts in the last few games. Wish I had him instead of Bednarek.

I know we're shit but we've got Huddersfield and Cardiff. Shaw?

Can't recommend any Arsenal defenders and Spurs whilst having good fixtures could be slightly rotation prone due to the CL. Vertonghen and Alderweireld the safer bets but most boring.

Not into locations = will not dwell
Aboomerang didn't play yesterday so I wasted my triple captain really. Still scored one which is alright but not great.

I want to bench boost this week as it might be the last remaining fixture that means anything to a handful of fringe players (e.g. Southampton).

With .2 left it is going to be tough but I can't see anything that would make me say you have to make a transfer. I do worry about you not having Sterling (I'd rather downgrade Salah to Mane and upgrade Son to Sterling) but maybe you're better off banking your FT and then using it GW 37.

I think tripling up on City is a must as they've already gotten the most goals in EPL history and Sterling is right at the top for attacking threat.

Cheers, actually got Lloris, Vertonghen, Trent, Jonny, Doherty, Monreal.. Maybe I should just stick to spurs+trent+Jonny.. I dont completely trust Wolves to keep a clean sheet though..

Considering Peltier (3.9) as they have Fulham away, but they probably need 3 points, so Cardiff's not gonna be safe defensively are they?

No. Not when Babel and Mitrigoal wreck them on Saturday anyway. Did well with that Wolves double up this week mind... :smirk:

+ Trent :drool: Great defence weekend actually..

Completely torn whether to get Salah+some compromises or Firmino in this GW.. Has Salah played on the wing lately or more like a striker? 5 weeks ago, he had lots of off-weeks, and Firmino arrived in better goal scoring positions, but haven't watched Liverpool lately

Tbh when I've watched them lately Mane has been the one playing most like a striker. That said if I could get Salah in one move I would. I wouldn't take a hit for it though as I feel it's 50/50 on who scores more anyway from game to game.

Firmino it is then! Salah would make me need two more subs, so it needs to be worth it.

Mane - Triple captain material? Or Aguero against Brighton (a) on the last day of the season?

Also Aguero against Burnley this GW is an option

I'm trying to overturn a massive points deficit (55) so need to take risks.

I can either get Sterling or do two transfers for Salah.

My opponent has neither so I'll Captain the one I get... Any advice?

I'm in a similar position, and I'm pondering on getting in Wilson for Fulham (a)

Sterling seems like too much of a risk not to have the last few weeks. I'm going to keep Son this week before CL is back and then next week do Son and Deulofeu to Sterling and cheaper mid.

Done KdB -> Sterling.

Now watch Sterling blanking or even worse, getting dropped.

Current Team:

Gunn
Robertson - TAA - Trippier
Mane - Eriksen - Son - Sterling - Fraser
Jimenez - Vardy

Foster - Cathcart - Boly - Long​

Only toss up is between Fraser and Cathcart/Boly.

Yeah I imagine most people will have benching issues after stacking up on a strong 15 with the wildcard. I'm probably gonna bench Jimenez this week which sounds crazy.

I would personally get in another Liverpool for this week - Firmino or Mane most likely to fit in budget

I'd have to take a -8 and get rid of Lacazette and Moura to get Mane. Don't think it's worth the risk

Thinking of a ballsy -12, need to get rid of De Bruyne and would use the opportunity to bring in Salah and Sterling (triple captain Salah).

Would give me this which looks incredible imo:

Foster
Laporte / Robertson / Jonny
Sterling / Salah / Jota / Son / Mane
Aguero / Jimenez​
