Who to captain? Help me out;
Bruno or Rashy?
Go Rashy. He's our main goal threat really.

I'm caught in a pit of March v MacAllister. (If I rule out the more high pay off Bruno/Salah options - that have the no Haaland in less than 2 transfers move - bar losing Kane) web of nightmare wild goosechases at the moment!

McAll might be an international trip minutes reduction job.

Ta, with a BB?

Bench being Playing double keeper, MacAllister (over March probably), Tarkowski, White. (Is a -4 as it is so will leave Tarko with a single)
I would be tempted to take the -8 for Tark too.

It would be a surprise if Spurs didn’t score and then they have United next.

I would take the -4 for Shaw and he could easily make that up just this GW and you have him for his good fixtures going forward.

Make sure you tell us your decision
:lol:. I would tell you through the force. But, as i found out few days ago, force is very weak in you:wenger:

How can you not love Star Wars, ffs?!!:D
Btw, i am going with Rashy

Between those two, i would go March. But its a brave move.

Need some advice guys. Any changes to the below team?

Raya, Ward
Trippier
, Burn, Mee White, Estupinan
Saka Martinelli, Maddison, Rashford Mitoma
Toney
Watkins Kane.

4 players with SGW and rest all double. I'm thinking to just do Ward to a DGW goalkeeper like Kepa or DDG. Or do a -4 as well to take out White for Shaw or Saka for Bruno?

Bring another gk (if Rodgers is telling the truth about Iversen getting run of games), buy Shaw, hit BB and enjoy.
I wouldn't sell Saka

Yeah I'm thinking Rashy too... And Star Wars is for nerds. I get no enjoyment out of it... Except the pod race scene in one of them.

Didn't want to initially but wanted to get Bruno for the double and the games afterwards but I just checked and realized that I won't be able to afford Haaland next week if I get in Bruno. Would need another -4 next week. So potentially a -8 for Bruno. Nah, not at all worth it.

It boils down to this for me. Kepa vs DDG and Shaw vs Chilwell?

BB activated:

Kepa, Navas
Trippier, Chilwell, Shaw, Henry
, Zinchenko
Rashford (c), Mitoma (vc), Maddison, Saka, Martinelli
Watkins, Toney, Kane

Brought Shaw in for Cash who's injured an have £5.0m in the bank. Worth taking a -4 hit for anyone? My initial plan was to take Zinchenko out before Cash's injury.

I am not a fan of goung double in defence so i would go Kepa and Shaw. Shaw is a must have defender imo

Depends on how your team looks in the following weeks.

Generally most people would want Bruno over an Arsenal mid for the rest of the season (especially if they're FHing in GW32). Because United have good fixtures and doubles while Arsenal face tough fixtures.

So if you think you'd be looking to move in that direction over the coming weeks anyway, I'd just make the jump now. Even if you just broke even on the move this week, it would save you a transfer later.
I am looking at the exact same move currently.

Bruno has a better game week next week as well so it might be worth a punt. The thing with Bruno is he either comes up big or does nothing (in terms of FPL).

The Arsenal lad is on form though and does play up front. He wasnt picked for Brazil so he will be quite fresh!
Would be a really risky one taking a guy on red hot goal scoring form out, playing Leeds at home!
If he scores 1 goal he could get a 10 pointer, meaning Bruno has to hit 14 just for breakeven!
Yes, that is exactly what I'm thinking about, double now and better future fixtures later for Bruno but I'm kind of afraid Martinelli would get a return against Leeds at home and with already taking -4 it could surpass Bruno's return this game week. Long term it should be a good move but risky if we are looking just this week. Also have Saka but he is on penalties so its Bruno vs Martinelli until the deadline !

Oh yea I already have a double defence in Newcastle which I'm not looking forward to. :lol:

Thought long and hard, said feck it and this is my final team for this week.

Raya, Steele
Trippier Burn Mee Shaw Estupinan
Saka Martinelli Maddison Rashford Mitoma
Toney Watkins Kane.

BB active. Have Watkins, naturally I want him to score. So don't want Kepa to keep CS against Villa and don't trust him to keep a CS against Liverpool either. In the end decided on Steele purely because of his value. Now if he gets dropped it will be a major kick in the nuts. :lol:

Right, at the moment my foward line is:

Toney - Haaland - Kane

But, I want to get rid of Toney. Apparently Haaland has asked to play tomorrow, so I'm not losing him.

My two options are:

Jesus £7.9 (LEE, h) or Ferguson £4.6 (BRE h, BOU a)

What do we think?

Why? I don't think he has the best fixtures - but it's still a double and he'll be highly owned. So if he does return your rank could plummit.

Ok last knockings.... @CassiusClaymore @Cutch @Rhyme Animal @Dan_F @BeforeKeanetherewasRobson @Maluco , anyone else.

-8 for Ward (not playing), Tarko (1 game) and Andreas (1 game) for Steele, Shaw and March/MacAllister - all doublers.
In theory, there's 4 extra games in that list of subbed in, so that's the 8 back immediately?

Then BB - with 11 doublers.
Critically allows an easy Toney to Haaland next week for free.

Toney might get booked and miss the second game, but he has a chance at a double without that booking.

If you want to take him out you should be looking at Isak/Watkins so you get two games and more certainty of starts.

If I were you though, I would be trying to spend those transfers on other DGW instead of someone who might well get two games

BB with 13 doublers. Options:

Saka to Bruno for free, not really keen on doubling up on United attack and losing Saka.
Kane to Isak - looks fine and can possibly keep him till Newcastle have their double.
Roll with 13 doublers.

Between second and third, any thoughts?

13 with Saka and Kane looks ideal to me. Could be manic to replace those 2.

Not worried about MacAll being on reduced mins after an international trip?

Forgot to copy you into my mail a few up annoyingly, any thoughts?

It should be ok, the manager has said they will play and the money game is Bournemouth anyway which is the second one.

Your -8 looks fine. I'm not 100% sure on Steele but looks fine for now I guess.

Ta. And sod it, I'm going for Mac then out of the two.

I'm sure I saw a couple of reports, or posts on here sayign he "could have scored xxx" goals the last few, in the no 10 role etc.
Annoyingly my Brighton pal who goes to watch them hasn't replied to either of my Steele or March v Mac posts, so I'll prob just bite the bullet and do it soon, then can have a lovely sleep and forget all this until the kick offs.

:lol: It was a 4 point loss as the template option was Kane, no big deal.

I'm not really sold on United scoring too many away at Newcastle, while BHA play Bournemouth and have been scoring loads.

I’m very, very similar…

Mitoma, March, Rashford, Maddison, Saka
Kane, Toney, Watkins

Why not just stand pat? Depends on your ITB, I suppose… I’ve got enough to do Toney to Haaland next week and Maddison to Bruno the week after.

I’d avoid Steele, might as well go for a keeper who’s certain to start twice. Haven’t decided on one yet myself.

I know, I’m also torn still but think it’s Rash time to shine. Looks good mate, I’d probably roll

Steele / Raya

Shaw / Chilwell / Henry / Trippier / Kilman

Saka / Bruno / Rashford / Mitoma / Mac Allister

Kane / Havertz / Toney

Bench boost activated, 12 doubles. Took a -8. Ward was the bummer that made me have to take the extra hit.

I have 6.1 ITB. :lol: Can easily do those moves.

I dont mind selling Kane as I will sell him before 34 anyway but replacement look shit. Maybe just do Henry to Shaw?

Solid move in my opinion, but be aware, I’m bloody cursed in this game. I’m planning to hold Kane, but if you move it could be a very bold differential.

Probably made a mistake of not going for Rashford because had a doubt that he would play, didn't realize our match was on Sunday so he has an extra day of rest than the others. Brought in Bruno and captained him rather. Let's see.

Also made a last minute decision to get a minus 4 and take out Haaland for Watkins.
