That was my go to option. Guess there are no better options for that money
Barkley looking like a very good mid-price option. He'll play every week and the set up there looks to really suit him. Weird how Villa suddenly have 4 or 5 very attractive options.

I have it on Salah, but I can see him being rested early in that game too.

Could also see either Mane or Salah being totally rested for it.
Definitely Salah for me. Tempted by Sterling, but everyone has Salah and will captain him. If Sterling blanks or returns little and Salah hauls, I'd be in trouble.

Been participating in the FPL since its inception and like the gutsy calls some people make. Top scorer for last week had Rash as Triple Captain. To play TC so early in season, genius or crazy or both??

I dont think Salah gets a rest this weekend.

Minor rumour of a Mane injury and Klopp might compensate for the lack of VVD by just going back to our scoring the opponent.

Salah currently my captain but debating Kane or Son.

I’ve also broken my rule after a first terrible week last week and made 3 transfers

MidJylland for the rest makes most sense. Although could rest Mane for that one and Salah for this one.
Maybe no need for a rest though. Liverpool have historically not rotated that much.

Same for me, but i'm hearing rumours that Van Aanholt will be back from injury this weekend. Which would be a pain in the arse!
Yeah then I have to play Brewster who will get 2 points at best. I got £0.9m in the bank so could upgrade from Mitchell to Coady... or Johnson to someone else.

I personally don’t think he’ll rest either of them unless they’re injured or got a niggle but you never know

I’ll have Podence coming in for James, provided he starts it could be worse, seen as they’re at home to Newcastle.

I don’t really see anything worth taking a -4 for this week. long term I’ll have to make a decision on whether I’m taking out Kane for Aguero, or Son for Bruno/Sterling/KDB.

I am keeping Son and selling kane once the fixtures get worse for Spurs I think. Son will still be deadly on the counter and cost less.

Should I bench Justin (ARS A) or Mitchell (FUL A)? Thinking of playing Mitchell as better chance of clean sheet but more chance of an assist or a goal for Justin

True. But then Kane takes pens. Luckily there’s a few more weeks before I need to make that decision.

TAA seems to be going down overnight, but with Sheff Utd and West Ham at home next up a huge risk to remove him now! Could see a touch of the "Werners" with that.

Annoyed Holding is injured for a few weeks. 4.5m way into Arsenal's defence was decent. May hold off a transfer, and monitor Watkins for Villa. If he looks as unlikely to score as he did away v Leicester, I might just bin him off to Brewster, and bank the extra money into Holding next week.

J Rod at 25% too. Hope he makes it in.

Newbies 15/16 FPL Champion.
Got Watkins in for Mitrovic last night. Team for gw6 is now

Ryan
TAA Saiss Justin
Salah(c) Son Trossard Mane
Watkins DCL Werner.

No Kane is a big concern but hoping Mane can do the business for the next 2 gameweeks.

Currently 14k OR and sit 2nd in redcafe league. Have my Wildcard in my back pocket too.

The team was created in GW5. I guess you have your answer now.

That happens nearly every week some guy from Sri Lanka or somewhere creates a team on that game week and scores like 145 points, or they’re ranked about 6m. Rarely ever a normal player wins the game week.

DeBruyne’s been shite anyway I’d play Rashford instead.

If I had Rashford that is..

Pep loves to feck us over. KDB not coming back into my team unless he outperforms Bruno over a prolonged period. Bruno is 1m cheaper + just better for FPL points in my opinion.

I don't have many issues with my squad and provided nothing does go drastically wrong I'm looking to downgrade Ramsdale to free up some cash. I've had Martinez from the start and since he's performed well, I'll just stick with him.

I'll probably go with Meslier, even though I already have Ayling but I noticed that Butland signed for Palace. From what I gather Guaitia is a decent keeper but what are the chances that they drop him for Butland?

This price change malarkey always confuses me.

I bought James when he was 7.7. Now he's 8. If I transfer him out to get Grealish in for this week I only get 7.7 back so I need to have an extra 0.4 in the bank if I want to buy him back next week.

Nope. If you bought him at £7.7 and he's £8m now then you'd get back £7.8m. It's the difference of half of what you paid rounded down if it's an odd number.

If you transfer him out, you will get 7.8m, so you need to have extra 0.2m itb to bring him back. I'd suggest keeping him though. You are going to want him till GW12 least.

Why not go 4.0m? If you have Martinez, then you should be looking to play him every week.
