How to get Aguero when you already have Sterling and KDB?!

Feel like I've made my bed on this one.

You sell Sterling and/or KDB! Not much else you can do!

You realise that a premium defence isn't the way to go and downgrade them. There are few here with all 3, and say Salah or Mane so it is possible

No idea either of your teams, but I feel many teams are holding pool defenders like Alonso last season, they will come good attitude, but in reality has Roberston for example showing anything worth a 7m player?

Makes the rest of the squad pretty threadbare! Guess with Cantwell, Lunstrum etc makes it a little easier. Next will be how do I get Abraham when I have Aguero, Sterling, KDB and Salah though!

Depends on your opinion of threadbare... the likes of Mount, James, Cantwell and others help it out - and then just get yourself 5 cheap playing defenders and rotate them

That's definitely threadbare! But that's the sacrifice for having that many premium players.

This season has been one giant kick in the nuts.

Amen to that!

Every single marginal call I've made has gone spectacularly tits up so far

Guess it depends on what structure you're happy with. There's no five cheap defenders I'd want never mind having to pick three to play every week. I'd rather have TAA, Digne and a mid priced forward than two cheap defenders and Aguero but that's just me.
