    Sanchez
    Dias Cresswell Mee
    Bruno Maddison Grealish Salah
    DCL Watkins Antonio (c)

    Martinez Chilwell Gundogan Stones

    Toss up between Sanchez/Martinez. I feel like Arsenal are more likely to nick a goal than Burnley.
    Tough captaincy call, Antonio feels punty.

    Probably the strongest bench I've had. Very tempted to play the BB but might wait for more DGW misery :pac:

    EDIT: Swapped Chilwell in for DCL on the off chance he plays. Hope I don't regret it.

    I'm starting Foden and Werner. Captained Antonio and benched Gundog.

    Probably one of my more nervy team selections in a few weeks.

    Quick scan looks like it might be the strongest GW in terms of benches. Include myself in that with DCL.

    Could be a lot of regrets post GW.

    What would people rather have, a weak bench or regrets for benching a strong player? I’d rather the latter.
