Might aswell start it early.
James -> Robertson
Rubber stamped.
Double Liverpool defence is back baby!!
Maupay and Dennis probably going in my team for a -4.
Thinking of captaining Maupay tbh.
I'd nearly roll with that team tbh though it might leave you a bit short. Could do James to a Brighton defender but not sure who you'd even bench then.
I might just to the pub and have a pint and then decide WTF I'm going to do.
This is my team at moment, 1 FT, 2.4 ITB
Bachmann (DGW)
Dias, Cancelo, TAA, Rudiger (DGW)
Jota, Bilva, Gray, Bowen
Maupay (DGW), Antonio
Subs: Foster, Pukki, Salah, James
Have the 2 FH's. After doing a few templates and hard to see big points gain with any FH to be totally honest on out of form players and so much uncertainty.
I might do Son to Mount, not a great double and blanks coming up but he'd only be a two week punt. Other options aren't exactly inspiring.
Ended up doing
ESR to Mount
Son to Bowen
Watkins to Kane
-8
Transfers I wanted and hopefully the DGW covers the -8 somehow!
ronaldo is fit according to ralf on skysports news and manchester evening news
Jesus, I don't know what to do now. Kane or Ronaldo? I can only chose one, as I want to keep Antonio and Dennis. I'm now actually tempted to go Kane and captain him.
Then maybe bring in Reguilón. Is there a reason both scouts selection this week have opted for Emerson Royal instead?
I think I'll go Mount too with injuries/non games going against Dennis, Kane and Ronaldo. I'm not optimistic on returns from Mount either though
C currently on mount now with these changes and guaranteed game time, hate c a player I don't actually like
Bringing in Greenwood an option? If Ronaldo is out, good chance of him getting minutes. Plus, Rashford is in poor form.
I would stick with those three unless you hear King has a single gameweek.
I think I'll bring in Ronaldo for Broja for -4 and captain him, keep it boring 😴 but the risk is very high if he hauls fomo and all that I suppose. Was all set on bringing in Dennis but with only a potential SG for Watford not worth the risk
Had 2 FT's and might Free Hit next week if we get a proper DGW
Son - KDB
Livramento - Marcel
Both players out are injured. Marcel back in the Wolves team at 4.2 and they've a pretty good defence. Also played in my mind that it's a team I have no other players from so might dig me out if there's Covid elsewhere. KDB is KDB, not really on form a the minute but not a lot of other big names out there, and he can hold the Salah spot for a few weeks. Nice fixtures after Chelsea too.
I might actually captain DDG at this stage. Don't think I've ever captained a goalkeeper.
Is Cavani a realistic option whether or not Ronaldo features??
Looking to bring Ronaldo in but no idea who to take out between DCL, Antonio and King... any advice?
If Ronaldo was out, he would be more attractive IMO. But it sounds like Ronaldo might be ok, and Ronaldo is the type of player to want to play every game either way.
Bruno only has 1 return since GW10. He doesn't look comfortable in games IMO and Man Utd are changing formation to try get him back into the game.
I am the opposite games being calls off shakes it up. Means teams and captains are much less similar. Also means have to have a half decent bench, plus be adaptable. It was getting a bit dull with most people captaining Salah.
Anyway I did my two transfers Salah and Son out. Maddison and Jota in.
10m plus in the bank there should be interest!
Looking at Bruno atm alright....he's been dire for so long but will Ronaldo being out possibly help him (??)
@Cartman78 what about bringing in Bruno instead of Son this week? It's something I'm debating and not bothering with Kane & Ronaldo...
Does that Villa potential DGW make Coutinho more attractive as a Son replacement?
It's still too soon, I think, but it could save a transfer next GW.
I'm hoping one of the Spurs games happens which is making me think strongly about Bench Boosting -
Team is currently -
Sánchez
Keane Cancelo Reguilón
Jota Bowen De Bruyne Gray Maddison
Calvert-Lewin Dennis
Bench is - Fernandez, Antonio, Laporte, Coufal
I've played the chip on worse weeks. Imagine - I could get 4 goalkeeper clean sheets 😂
All my plans for this week out the window. My Captain choice all over the place. Any chance of someone with the skills can stick up a quick captains poll. Currently between Dennis and Bowen for me.
My head is wrecked, I still have Salah and Son and no premium forward. 2 x FH and 2 FT this week
So to summarize:
Ronaldo is out (?)
Kane likely to have only one game
Lukaku will have DGW but 2 blanks around the corner
Leicester likely to have one game
Arsenal possibly no game...
I'm about 60% leaning towards making 2 or 3 transfers and saving the Free Hits for a future catastrophe
Could be chaos.
Thinking of bringing in mount and giving him the armband?
thoughts
Even the midfield mastero McTominay is out for the first dgw so can't bring him in for Son. Fml.
Watford? Second game is Burnley though.
Am I right in saying it's likely only Brighton, Chelsea, Man Utd and Brentford will end up with a double game week?
Thinking I'll just move on James and Livramento now that Maddison will only have 1 game. Looking at Cucarella and Regulion currently but with Spurs game in doubt its hard to commit. If ever a GW didnt need a Friday night game!
