I expect Robbo and Salah to both start after missing yesterday's game - Klopp says they're fine and others will be tired. Gone with VVD as the third who doesn't get through as much running and Liverpool can't afford to rest. Just think that Mane and TAA who both got through 90 might start on the bench. Then gone with Kane even though he looked sluggish. It's a one week punt and I had some funds to play with. WHU are always likely to concede, there's always a chance that Kane has a big game, worth the risk for a possible blank. Team is set up nicely - I feel like only having 2 Wolves against a dire BOU team might not be the best. Was going to include Patricio in goals but then I would have had no Leicester players. I could probably find a way to squeeze in Adama Traore in instead of Saint Maximin, but I though Maximin looked really sharp against SHU and he has a goal in his last 2 so going with the form book here.

Wolves on the second half were easily the most impressive team of the weekend Looked like they were never away
shmeee wrote: » Yes, if Boly to Doherty can be done without a -4 then I'd be for it. No point baiting around the bush while the iron is hot. Yes, the mid range Mids available are poor. I'm more than likely going to be going 5 at the back instead. Better options in the mid range defenders IMO. 3 Wolves players going forward if you can get them into a team is your base for sure.
Morzadec wrote: » So going without Doherty on a FH would be a cardinal sin? No chance he gest rested/rotated as it's a demanding role? Can do Doherty and DCL instead of Boly and Ings by weakening my bench (which should be fine as it's a FH). DCL and Richarlison kind of seems Everton overkill, but then again it is Norwich..

Would leave me with no Man U, one Liverpool, 3 (!) Villa, a possibly non playing Aguero and fcuking Auba! Thinking of this FH: DDG (Martinez) TAA, Doherty, Aurier/Justin (Lascelles) KDB, Mane, Fernandes, Alli Rashford, DCL, Jimenez 2 non playing subs. Would prefer Richarlison over Alli but do't want an Everton double up. Any views?

Wisesmurf wrote: » I'm currently top of a very tight money league and changed my whole team with the free week with a BB knowing I have a WC in hand and a FH. 2 of the closes challengers don't have WC left. I planned on doing the WC this week and a FH in the last 2 weeks, picking players who have something to play for. The punt this week was, Leno Button, TAA,Egan, Lund, Targett Grealish, McGinn, Salah, KDB, Saka Auba, Mousset, Aguero Did only OK. KDB and Aguero wont differentiate me from the rest tonight. I need to get away from the dead rubbers i think so the current draft of the WC is: Pope (Button) Doherty, TAA, Fernandez, Soyuncu (Targett) Saint Max, Fernandes, Salah, KDB, (Traore) Rashford, Jimenez, (Ayew) Any other thoughts on strategy with my options or players.
dr.kenneth noisewater wrote: » Very similar WC team to that. I'd get Holgate in for Targett maybe, AV look fairly poor defensively. That bench will drive you mad I feel, plenty of points could be left behind on the bench.
