I want to captain a City player for their double , Stones will now rotate with Laporte so thought why not take a hit & go for DeBruynr I think Brighton have been the unluckiest team this year, I’ll play Veltman over Shaw & Digne this week. & then also for GW29 (hopefully). If he could return 10 points in those 2 weeks is be delighted

Important as someone mentions above to have a full squad I think. I have a lot of middling talent at the moment. Long term looking at a blank player to son for 29, mount /periera to Raphinha, possibly Bert traore in as well. Will take a couple of -4 along the way and wildcard after 29..think there is a huge chance to make ground in 29 if some get caught out having not planned for it.

Only would have to get through the last 8 GWs or so with a reduced team value. If you're in the same boat as me with a WC to come and BB used, then you can afford to go very light on the bench in your WC, which should free up funds to get Bruno back. I see no real risk in going for cheapest possible goalkeeper and one cheapest possible defender in a WC to see out the season. So that's probably about 1m freed up which covers any Bruno buy back. Add to this the fact that none of Sterling, Salah, or KDB are exactly looking like "must haves" right now, there doesn't seem to be that much of a squeeze on funds. Thinking I'll likely take out Bruno for Son this week. Trying to decide whether to play DCL against a very stingy Chelsea side, or take a -4 to bring in Lingard or Saka for Barnes and play them instead. In isolation it's not worth a 4 point hit, but it's another player for 29 and a hit I might end up taking down the line anyway.
