Mitrovic will be a sure thing for a drop unless he comes on and changes things here.

I'm in a similar boat, Son and Havertz out allows me KDB and a 6m (or a 4.5m and another premium defender).

FPL site has Klick as the penalty taker. Also Scummy Man highlighted:

Others on my radar are:
Podence (Wolves) - prone to rotation
Pereira (West Brom) - unproven at PL
Doucoure (Everton) - seemed to be playing fairly advanced in a team that will socre goals, but will he really keep Siggy/Bernard/Iwobi out full-time

I'll go with Klich so, thanks

I can get away with benching Vingare for a week or two but he'll need to go eventually. Annoying, I had Lewis in ahead of him until last hour. He may be my replacement.

I went straight to Martial and captained him. Palace at home is almost as good as it gets.

(Us) United fans weren't saying that after last year's match.

Serious over-reaction here. KWP and Ayling have reasonable fixtures over the next few weeks and they rotate nicely with each other, filter them out of your team over the next while. Getting rid of Fraser and Antonio would be enough imo, lots of options available depending on how you want to split the 12.5.

James has Liverpool next so will be better handled and a Chelsea clean sheet looks unlikely, get him the week after on a FT. Saiss wont be scoring regularly and is playing City next so a big score is unlikely, again wait. Justin and Mitchell will likely lose their places as the incumbents return. Getting Bamford at 5.6 will see you with 0.4 itb and being 0.1 short of players you want for weeks.

Good advice.thank you

So it'll be Havertz/Pulisic out and Salah and AN other up to 6m.

I'm looking at Klich and Harrison from Leeds. their stats are very similar in terms of last season. Any Leeds fans know who was on pens last season? Who would you pick out of those 2?

no love for Klich?

A 5.5m on pens is an attractive asset imo

16 goals and 14 assists in the last two seasons

That seems like madness to me. Includes getting two players who might not be first choice in the short term.

As soon as I typed it out and clicked post on boards.ie, I promptly turned off my laptop and went to bed.

Madness is right ted

7.5 in the bank

Get spending lad, a -4 to bring in a Premium mid/forward for a 5m player is definetly worth a shot

Disagree but each to their own.

Pizzle

Took a -8 point hit for a slight reshuffe bringing in Fernandes and KDB. I'm regretting it now but hopefully that's my team in good condition for the next few weeks.

Reversing my "trying too clever approach" of going without Salah and picking Havertz and Pulisic (awful decision in hindsight).

So it'll be Havertz/Pulisic out and Salah and AN other up to 6m.

Hard to justify holding Taa, considering price rise since last year. Got Gabriel for him last night, had outstanding debut and arteta seems to have tightened up defensive strategy.

He was 7.7m at the end of last season, up from 7m starting price, 7.5 isn't much of an increase really.

Any see the Wolves game ?

How did Marcal do at LWB ? Heat map isn’t very impressive re attacking potential.

Probably still a better option (attacking returns) than Saiss though.

Shocked Jota didn’t get any gametime. I really hate that Jota, Podence and Neto will share minutes for 2 places. I think one of them will be a great option but who knows which one ?

Yeah I'd love to take Podence at 5.5 but there's a lot of 20 minute cameos in his (brief) time at Wolves. You'd have to think with their long season last year they'll do their best to manage minutes. They've a record striker Fabio Silva waiting to get minutes too.

I really hate using a transfer in gw1 but I couldn't see Adams scoring against Tottenham but I can see Bamford scoring against Fulham.

Did Son to Bruno to avoid the price rise. Have 1.5 in the bank and KDB raring to come off the bench so feeling a bit better.

If TAA looks off the boil in the next few game weeks he will have to go, 7.5 is very expensive if he doesn't get decent returns, would look to downgrade him to maybe Chilwell and could then strongly improve my midfield

Tempting to use my wildcard also, but as others have said things are up in the air at the moment. Plus Pool Chelsea and Wolves City this weekend so feel I can hold off. May just take the free transfer and remove Aaron Connolly. Was tempted to put in Bamford although he's already up in price and I don't rate him that much. Leeds Fulham this weekend. Fulham look a poor outfit. Mitrovic tempting.

I don't know much about Rodrigo at Leeds, his goalscoring record isn't that impressive although with his transfer fee I assume he will start most games. What do people think of him?

He's the starting striker for Spain and cost nearly £30m so he will be their no 1 striker in time. He's undoubtedly better than Banford but I'd hold off until he's starting (will be given time some time to adjust). He did give away the foul for the last penalty against Liverpool so that wouldn't have done his starting chances much good and Bamford scored too so I reckon he'll be on the bench again this wkend.

Ings will be expected to pay his returns in the 2 games after spurs.

Yeah disappointing Jota didn't play, hard to know yet how much he will start. I'll keep him for another week to see then pull the trigger.

Out for Martial, Palace and Brighton next for United.

Palace won at OT last season and Hodgson completely out thought Ole. No Bruno then obv so will be interesting to see the progress.

I did until you said that

I just felt exposed with no Manchester players at all in my team. If he doesn’t play and Kane only gets 2 points it wouldn’t be the worst result. The issue comes it Kane has a good game and I question every decision I’ve ever made

I really don't think it's a as big a risk. Palace will go confident to OT and were solid this weekend. Brighton also looked ok. Better to wait, see what is happening and then use two transfers on GW3 if needed. Lots of others will be in the same boat I think. KDB on the other hand, or Sterling, they will always come up trumps but again, their opening is sketchy and City are very unpredictable.
