Yeah first choice isn't too smart. I dare say today's 14 pointer, plus being one of the few 4m starting defenders is the extent of his magic.

- Start date
Deal. Or just a kebab from just eat as I probs won't be up north by that point.
Get in!
Ahhh would love to play my wildcard but think I should hold off
Is De Bruyne going to go up in price tonight?

Really just putting him in as someone cheaper to be rotated as my 3rd starting defender.
Ofcourse I already have lundstram in the team.. ofcourse he was first sub when every single person played including origi for 14 mins ... bah
Did anyone catch Lundstram's game? Was he actually an attacking threat? The big question for everyone will be whether to start him against Leicester and Southampton at home. His career stats are a pretty useless indicator because he was playing as a defender back then.
i've put him in to rotate and so I can get a near enough premium striker in, will need to either take a 4pt hit or no transfer on week 4 to bring one in, reticent to play Wild Card just yet.
Don't think he's ever been a defender.
You're not going to lose anything by putting him in while he remains 4.0. Good transfer if you have it to spare.
If Martial has a good night tonight then might have to bite and take a -4 to get him in.

He got number 7 on his back. Not going to play as a defender much this season. Saved my gameweek after I listened to "experts" over my instincts when finding a replacement for Barkley, and chose Boundia over Cantwell...
I've hit wildcard and have no regrets.
KDB = must have
Lundstram = clearly the best £4m enabler
Mane = as good as Salah for me and cheaper
Pukki = this seasons Jiminez?
I want a Spurs player too and am wavering between Kane and Son. I expect Son will go straight back into the team at the weekend but that would really stack my midfield (especially if I keep Martial) and I might need to go for Firmino as my Liverpool cover which isn't necessarily a bad thing with Arsenal up next and his record against them.
Basically this at the moment with McGinn becoming Ceballos in time.
Pope (Button)
Digne - VVD - Zinchenko (Soyunco) (Lundstram)
Son - Sterling - KDB - Martial - McGinn
Firmino - Pukki (Greenwood)

Got Trossard in for Fraser before the price drop.
Feel dirty making such early transfers, i'm such a filthy hypocrite.

Bring him in now. At home against Crystal Palace next week
Firmino or Lacazette at 9.5 or Rashy at 8.6?
Trossard or Mount?
Yes caught a bit, he was MotM but Palace were dreadful. He seems quite a handy player, made a great "attacking midfielder" run for his goal and looks nailed on to play for them going forward.
Blades fan were saying he wouldn't feature much during the pre-season so that is a slight worry ?
Rashford, easily. Should be our main goalscorer. Firmino doesn't really have potential to score more than 15, and Lacazette could easily end up being third scorer on that Arsenal team when Pepe settles.
Called it..
Trossard bro. Looks quality, will be playing as a forward in an attacking side and scored 17 goals for Genk last year. I'd definitely back him to get better numbers than Mount, although Chelsea play Norwich and Sheffield United in the next two games..
Lucas Moura is very good value. Prone to rotation though. Scored in both GW's
Trossard looked really dangerous at the weekend. I'm gonna go with Mount and possibly chnage soon.Called it..

I literally took him out because of that for Martial last week.
Felt vindicated when I saw he was benched but sods law he came on to equalise
He was an early season punt anyway. He's definitely not first choice at Spurs with everyone fit. Champions League final showed that more than anything.
Tempted to Wildcard and keep ahead of the pack. I currently have pickford, digne, salah, kane, robertson and sterling that i like, but want rid of Deulofeo, F.Anderson, a.pereira and greenwood.
Team i have vs team i want. Should i hold on a little while?
OR.....

No Liverpool is brave. I did a Liverpool free team myself earlier and on paper it looked ridiculously good.Tempted to Wildcard and keep ahead of the pack.

Usually i go with a 3-4-3, but there seems to be such a thin choice of strikers given so many teams play 4-4-3 or 4-5-1 nowadays. And those winger/forwards are marked down as midfielders, therefore its hard not to go with 5 in midfield. For example there's so many interesting midfielders around 5-7m, where as the equivalent priced strikers there's very few appealing ones
Perfect score tonight would involve a Martial goal and a Maguire clean sheet.
Make it happen lads!

You think that but Pukki and Barnes would like to say hello.
used some excess funds to swap out wilson for kane. That schedule for spurs looks pretty juicy. Def gonna captain kane against newcastle this week.
Didn't say none, I said so few in comparison
Martial must have?
Yeah must have. I talked him down but if he's going to be a regular start it's a no brainer. I'll take the minus 4 and hope Digne is fit.
Before the season stared, yes.
Now, absolutely.

If I drop Salah down to Mane, I can afford Martial instead of Ceballos.
I can swap Siggy for Martial and take a -4 or wait until next week as planned... Help?
Checked after the game and Martial was on 2 bonus points. Now he’s downgraded to 0
WanB with a big 1 point
Wait Maybe? Siggy had a good game against Watford and delivered like 3 good key-passes, only for others to feck up. Ill stick with him a bit, in for some points
Pogba or Jota?
I could afford Pogba if I swapped Coady for Burn, but I’m not sure. Pogba basically guarantees you 10 goals and 10 assists, but Jota plays up front and is listed as a midfielder. Got 9 last season too and is a lot cheaper.
