Not quite sure what to do with Saka. Do I put him first on the bench or have him starting with the risk that he comes on and gets 10 minutes tomorrow. With Man City next, followed by Chelsea should I just transfer him out or bank the transfer?

Current team:

Pickford
Saliba, Botman, Lockyer
Mitoma, Maddison, Rashford, Diaby
Watkins, Morris, Haaland

Subs: Leno, Saka, Estu, Udogie

Thinking of doing Morris + JWP in for Saka and Pedro. I'm going to play my WC next week so I can bring back Saka and I'll only lose 0.1 of value. I think JWP has a great chance of returning against a broken Shefield at home. Plus Morris with a relatively easy Double Game week. Thoughts anyone?

Son, Saka, Botman, Maddison, Saliba all flagged. Fecking injury crisis on me hands.

Yeah I'd do that with the wildcard in hand.

Current wildcard

Turner/Areola
Trippier - Burn - Tarkowski - Lamptey - Taylor
Salah - Maddison - Son - Diaby - Chukwu
Alvarez - Darwin - Haaland

0.0 itb which makes it annoyingly hard to go from Alvarez (7.0) to Højlund (7.1). Hopefully all the wildcarders next week will throw out Baldock and make him be 3.8 so I can do Taylor>Baldock and Alvarez>Højlund.

I might miss out on Cash too, but I dont really fancy JWP or any other midfielders in that range for the next gws.

I have
Onana
Saliba Estu Chillwell Gusto Kabore
Saka Rashy Bruno Maddo Diaby
Wissa Alvarez Haaland

2 freebies.

Chilwell has to go without a doubt. Trippier would be nice, but would need a sacrifice elsewhere, meaning probably will wait a wildcard for that. Botman instead?

And to Morris or not? Wissa needs to go, so that'd work.

Onana
Saliba Botman Kabore (Estu as cover for the 2 yellows)
Saka Bruno Rashy Maddo (Diaby)
Alvarez Morris Haaland (c)


What say we gang?
@Dirty Schwein @Maluco @ROFLUTION @CassiusClaymore @Samid @anyone else



Son can wait until next week, will have 1.5m to move one of the other mids up.

If you plan to play WC soon then get Morris in. Maybe take a punt on West ham? Saka to JWP/Bowen looks decent.

On a wildcard possibly, but only have 2 freebies this week. Chilwell out is essential. And hard to pick any of that midfield to lose right now. Saka seems to have travelled, and Son v Liverpool doesn't scream goals, and if he does score, just beating them up would be reward!

Morris can be bench fodder anyway, as Diaby is a decent mid to play a 5 too.

Chilwell to trips then it's obviously best option but failing that... Cash has a great set of fixtures upcoming or you can get the kicker of cats, who will be on the end of many JWP set pieces

Got botman - Saka - Maddison - saliba

All doubtful

Not sure what to do, all are starters usually so need to ship at least one maybe? Thinking JWP but for who?

Or a defender but who for who?

Id say Son against Pool is as good as any other game he plays.

Id take some chances with differentials like Morris or that Burnley striker at 5.4 or even Nketiah if you plan to wild card after this gw

If you got Saka in from the start at 8.5, him dropping from 8.7 to 8.6 wouldn't matter much right? I'd be selling him at 8.6 regardless?

Thoughts on Saka today? My thinking is he's travelled as insurance and will come from the bench if required..

How about this wildcard

Estupian - Andersen - Botman - Cash - Walker
Saka - Bowen - Son - Mitoma - Diaby

Still got 2 mil in bank to change things later If someone does not work out

I would just do Jackson to Morris, then that gives you a DGW player in case we get news that Saka isn’t starting.

That mightn't be a bad shout. I'd consider a -4 next week then too and I'd feel like I'm pretty much back on track

MBuemo to Son
Gusto to Cash

Onana Areola
Estupinan Burn Botman Cash Udogie
Son Bruno Saka Maddison Bowen
