    Keeping things the same and £7.5m in bank for next week, taking a flyer on captain with no PEA, could go Salah but feeling frisky...

    McCarthy
    Robbo Justin Lacelles
    Salah Fleck ASM Barnes(C)
    Kane Ayew CWilson

    Captain along with ASM & Fleck on cards for a double switch for next week


    GL all......

    7.5m in the bank?????????? There is flexibility but this just seem foolish, and leaving you with Barnes as C instead of an Auba or Martial proves the point, :eek:

    JWP imo. Southampton not looking good at the moment plus they've got a tougher fixture than Newcastle.

    Maybe. Quite happy with start last week. Never having Auba although will admit was hoping he wouldnt score last week. never bringing him in this week either way. Martial is down my list of Utd players for next week but happy to let this week ride. Palace had out number last season at Old Trafford and wont be surprised if its the same Saturday even though they are slightly depleted. Time will tell.

    Is an option, might be taken yet. Just fancy Barnes after watching last week, think he has a 10-14+ pointer in him at home to Burnley.

    In all probability, 9/10 times Salah will outscore him

    Barnes having a 10-14+ points in him based on what exactly?

    There are few capable of it and he isn't on that list. And never was.

    Ryan
    TAA, VVD, Justin, KWP
    Auba(C), Bruno, Greenwood, HamRod
    Werner, DCL

    Subs: Soucek, Mitchell, Brewster

    Kind of annoying that Liverpool are playing Chelsea as I don’t see a clean sheet or Werner getting a haul but happy with the rest of the fixtures

    F*cked up my transfer and dreading this week.

    Starting at -4.

    Ryan
    Laporte, TAA, KWP, Lamptey
    PEA (c), Salah, ASM
    Aguero, Bamford, Connolly

    Nyland, Neto, Robertson, Gordon

    Neto and Robertson to come off the bench

    (I was very tired when I took Aguero and Bamford in for Kane and Nketiah. Pressed the confirm button without thinking about it)

    I think I'll focus on my draft team this week instead

    Ryan
    Robertson Gabriel KWP James
    Willian, Lucas Moura, Auba, Jorginho, Foden
    Adams

    Pope, Nketiah, Antonio, Laporte.

    Martial in for Werner this week.

    McCarthy
    TAA Davies Justin
    Auba(c) Son ASM Salah
    Martial Mitrovic DCL

    P-F KWP Bissouma Douglas

    I'm considering captaining Martial but I'm too much of a coward.

    Think I'll start Podence against City over KWP.

    Wolves have a good enough record against City if I recall, and the extra competitive game under their belt.

    Johnstone,
    Robbo, Doc, Dallas
    Auba (c), Salah, Podence, Soucek
    Martial, Werner, Wilson

    KWP, Bissouma, Mitchell

    Salah Auba Havertz
    Werner Wilson Antonio

    Subs: Button Soucek Romeu Mitchell

    Saliba out Justin in. Haven't fully decided on Soucek on the bench yet. It would be KWP dropped.

    If you start Steer you might end up with McCarthy anyway!

    Same team as last week saving the transfer to see how United and City perform.

    Ryan off the bench to replace McCarthy that's about it.

    if you fancy the clean sheet from Steer then you should go for it. if he doesn't play then you haven't lost anything.
