They're the most consistent points scorers in the game, they're relatively cheap, great fixtures and they have doubles coming. Can you do Tierney, Bednarek, Maddison to Stones, Cancelo, Barnes? Also what formation will you be looking to play? I'm guessing 352 with Brewster 3rd sub every week? Think you could possibly downgrade Targett slightly then aswell maybe. Maybe find a 4.4 or 4.5 that's playing every week if you need to squeeze out a last bit. I don't mind the Auba shout at all but I'd be tempted towards Salah again after yesterday but that's another million to find obviously! Unless maybe Saka and Salah for Auba and Maddison and that would free up loads of cash to upgrade the defence.

I feel that Stones/Dias would normally either start or play 0 mins with Justin/Cresswell to sub in. Don't really like the Jesus pick at all tbh. Never enjoyed owning him. Not sure if I've made it worse now or should go back to Son over Salah.

You have 3 Aston Villa (who will have plenty of doubles coming up) You have 3 Man City (who have doubles and the best immediate fixtures) You have Leicester cover in Maddison and Justin (although how they perform attacking wise without Vardy making his runs and splitting defenses remains to be seen) Salah is (and I can't believe I'm saying this) a risky one, but he knocked in 2 in the cup. Some people seem to be suggesting that he's looking for off, who knows. I'd be more comfortable having him now though after his cup efforts. The only thing you could possibly look at for me is to re-examine the likes of Justin, Cooper Watkins with a view towards cheaper alternatives so that if Gundog doesn't work out you can make a quick one step transfer rather than having to make multiple downgrades to make a meaningful one.

I’m on: Martinez (Sanchez) Cancelo Shaw Digne (Justin, Mitchell) Bruno Grealish Sterling Foden (Maddison) Werner DCL Watkins. Everton, City & Villa have a backlog of fixture so sensible to have them in there. Considering Hamez over Maddison too.
Ace2007 wrote: » ^^^ I would prefer Son to Kane but other than that it looks solid - Maybe have a Leicester defender - they have a great run of games coming up. Who knows though in 2 weeks time you might want half of them out or another 3/4 players in such as how this season is gone. May be a bounce with Frank gone at Chelsea for instance. Pep might do a Pep on it and breakup the central defense. 3 Villa lads good for their inevitable doubles. If Salah continues his PL form you'll probably want rid though that it's easy given his price.

Which of your front 8 are you thinking of benching this week? You have given yourself quite the benching conundrum on a weekly basis but it sure is good to have that level of depth all the same.

Ace2007 wrote: » I know i've been banging on for weeks about it - but why is there such a need to bench defenders - based on form - should probably be going with 4-5-1 or 5-4-1 formation, most people however have notion of playing 3-5-2 or 3-4-3 in their head and are very rigid.
