I think Walton is second choice. Been with the club a long time and performed well for Blackburn on loan last season.

Steele by all accounts isn’t a good goalkeeper as I think CSF here lambasted him a few seasons back for how bad he was.

Don’t think that was me. Or maybe my memory has gone wonky. Who knows.

Big Borg

Loved that short, sweet assist from KDB to Jesus!! Great end to the game.

I could have sworn it was you who mentioned it about 2 and a half years ago.

Yeah I know, I'm weird like that haha.

I read in an article of ff scout that Bruno dropped deeper and Van de Beek played a more advanced role when he can on for Pogba after 70 minutes

Anyone that watched the match that can confirm?

I don’t mind paying the 10.5 for Bruno if he’s behind Martial but not if he’s Potentially back playing in the 2 of a 4,2,3,1

Bale added at 9.5m

Decent value if he gets going - just checked that the season he left he was registered at 12m on FF.

Bale will not be fit for 3 - 4 weeks.

And he won't be taking Sons place anyway.

Is it worth downgrading foden for potence to save 1.0m

I dont think so - Foden is a good pick - but my start has been horrific

If Foden and Prodence were to play the same amount of minutes, i would say go with Foden, however how many minutes Foden gets is the million dollar question.

In Foden's favour is that he plays for a very attack minded team - and even if he doesn't start - he would still be likely to come on even if the team are wining 5-0, and which case may grab a goal easier than say Prodence would.

Podence is also an unknown from a game time perspective (though less so than Foden)


With Semedo coming in itll be Traore, Neto, Podence for 2 spots

Early to decide yet with all the cup games. But which 2 would you start from KWP, Mitchell, Burke (SHU)?

Mitchell 100% anyway.

He's in and have Burke at the moment as he was playing basically as a FW against Villa. Up against a leaky Leeds defence

CSF

What way do we see the striker discussion now? Obviously DCL and Bamford have started great.

If we go from 8.4 upwards, who do people think is the best a) relative to value b) ignoring value

The Megaphone

a) Jiménez
b) Aguero (simply as I think he’s in line for a curtailed season with injuries)

I wonder will we see Aguero as Aguero again. I’m in that seemingly small group of people who thinks Jesus is an unbelievable footballer (not as good an FPL asset)

Im starting burke against leads, as Sheff utd will look to counter and leeds look slightly porous at the back.

(obvious caveat he might not start)

I personally would bench mitchell I think, higher ceiling on KWP

Jiminez
Kane... maybe

DCL or Ricarlison? Everything in me is saying Ricarlison

Brian201888

I've brought Richarlison in for Vardy this week, Richarlison was amazing at the weekend

I doubt we'll see him in the PL next season!

David Moyes and two West Ham players have tested positive for Covid-19.

EDIT: They got the news before their Carabao Cup match tonight and had to leave the game immediately.

What the PL plan if there were 4/5 players on a squad infected - would a PL game get postponed?

NabyLadistheman

Wolves West Ham Arsenal Liverpool will be the issues. Fingers crossed the rest will be ok

ScummyMan

They were with the squad up until 45 mins before kick off.

Wolves fixture at the week surely a big risk now
