I used my wildcard for this GW9, sold Haaland in favour of having the midfield of Salah as captain, Saka, Son, Maddison and Diaby + Watkins and Alvarez in attack.
Risky, but it helped me reach the top again in all my mini leagues. Defence was also solid with the contributions of Trippier and Tsimikas. Now I'm still waiting for three Spurs' players tonight as I have Udogie too.
So this is my current "no Haaland" team:
GK: Turner, Areola.
DF: Cash, Trippier, Udogie, Tsimikas, Coufal.
MF: Diaby, Salah(C), Saka, Son, Maddison.
CF: Watkins, Alvarez, Edouard.
