    Is it worth moving Taylor out?
    He won't be playing Man city again so it feels very knee-jerky.

    Money no object as long as its under 4.3.

    Current defence:

    DDG-Button

    TAA-Doherty-Lascelles-Ngakia-Taylor.

    Holgate or Femenia in my thoughts.

    Going to go with this team:

    Lloris (Martinez)
    Doherty TAA AWB (Lascelles, Holgate)
    Bruno Salah Richarlison Traore (Saka)
    Vardy Rashford Jiminez

    Any thoughts?

    I would strongly recommend KDB. Try to go with calvert lewin + KDB instead of Traore & Vardy. DCL has norwich away which is a good fixture

    Nobody going with Marcos Alonso in their wildcard huh? Once you look past City it's a lovely run for a differential :)

    This isnt a transfer related - but who are people captaining?

    There is a captains thread, with poll.

    I have a choice between Rashford, Jiminez, Vardy or KDB? Leaning towards Jiimenez as he has scored v bournemouth 1 goal in each of last 3 games vs them, and does tend to take penalties for wolves.

    My gut feeling tells me to pick KDB though but i am a coward :(

    There's a thread for that in case you didn't know about it:
    https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2058089223

    It has a poll too which might be useful

    I would swap Lloris/AWB to DDG/Aurier - cheaper and (i think) more upside

    Think I’m locked in. Just torn between Maguire and AWB.

    I have decided to go without KDB for the run in, but I have got DCL in for Vardy.
    I upgraded Saka to Dele Alli. Anyone else going for him?

    Final spot is a first on the bench 6.5 (ish) mid

    Sarr or Mount?

    Yeah I actually did this once I saw the team on paper.

    Sarr looked very threatening against Leicester. I would pick him ahead of Mount. I think Mount may lose minutes with so many options available for Lampard.

    Any opinions would be welcome. 0.8 available, I'm 50/50 on whether to keep KDB or not.

    As someone pointed out to me yesterday there's not a lot to be gained by having Martinez. I ditched him for Button and used the money elsewhere

    Only 0.3 in a difference between KDB and Son, doesn't seem worth the risk. Can't really think of anyone else worth replacing him with

    Trying to decide between him & Son. Only negative against atm is his lack of gametime having being banned last time out.

    I've shifted out KDB since, I was only going to have him on bench so what was the point in wasting them funds I said to myself.

    Draft number 1,567

    Patricio
    Doherty, TAA, Justin, Fernandez, Maguire
    Bruno, Salah, Son
    DCl, Jimi

    Martinez, Tammy, Armstrong, Saka

    Still undecided on my 3rd striker.

    1.4 ITB

    WC Locked in and just going to head to the Golf Course so I won't do anymore messing.

    Patricio
    Doherty, TAA, Justin, Alonso, Maguire
    Bruno, Salah (C), Son
    DCL, Jimi (VC)

    Button, Saka, Tammy, Armstrong

    0.1 ITB

    Lads i'm struggling here, excellent Free hit week of 136 points but now using wildcard to set myself up

    Is anyone seeing it worthwhile to keep Aubamayang with Soton away next and then Norwich?

    Also is it worth taking a punt on Foden? Also have Saka (Along with Salah, Fernandes and Son)


    Team so far:

    Patricio (Button)

    AWB, TAA, Saiss (Jack Robinson Simpson)

    Salah, Fernandes, Son, Foden, Saka

    Jiminez, Aubamayang, ?

    Have 5.5 million in the bank and looking for advice on a reshuffle, midfield may all not play, and backup striker may not be enough

    Cheap striker (Nketiah) and better midfielder? If so which Midfielder. 5.5 million left to play around with (and Foden 5.1 and Saka 4.7)

    Picked him for BB but probably will only get me 2 points anyway, even with the extra 0.3, I'm struggling to use it anywhere

    Looking at the below
    Pope/Martin
    TAA/Doherty/Holgate/Lascelles/Simpson
    Slah/KDB/Bruno/Sarr/Saka
    Jiminez/Rashford/Ings

    Main doubts are to go with Sarr/Saka or Traore/St Max. The latter makes for tough decisions on who to drop each week but more potential for points. Also considering changing Ings to DCL to have some cash ITB

    Few late changes, got rid of Pope/Ings/Simpson to Patricio/DCL/Robinson. Watched the highlights of the game last night and Burnley seem to be in disarray so selling Pope will have to be done, have had him since GW1!

    Honestly thought this was a reply to Mr. Prodston asking if anyone was considering Alonso :P

    It made me smile :D

    Personally, I'd be inclined to look at Sarr over Grealish. I like the frontline but has Giroud played himself into a position where he might take minutes from Abraham ? I'd be nervous of Fleck and after last night I wouldn't be happy going double Burnley defense.

    Finally moved Taylor out of defense and finally brought in Aurier

    Lads will Jesus start for City?

    What strikers are worth considering for this weekend? Have DCL and Jiminez

    9.7m in bank

    Robinson and Simpson are 2 transfers waiting to happen in future GWs. Leaves you little wiggle room if any big hitter is rested for points to come off the bench.

    Can't see Simpson playing at all, and can't see Robinson keeping his place.

    I seem to be the only one who likes Ngakia for WHU at 4.0. He's been playing regularly in recent Gws. But he's purely fodder to come in with 2 points max.

    I do like the Foden pick (if he was regular starter), Pep will break your heart with rotation.
    For my sanity I couldnt own him.

    Id move him on to a cheaper certain starter to bench in FPL.

    Id go Ayew up front with that budget.

    Moving to a a boly-saiss double up and a cheaper GK instead of patricio-saiss would give you more funds.
