Thankfully not for a hit. Things can go really any way though going forward. But definitely more interesting i think.

I'm scared of Southampton's fixtures and even though I already have Clyne and Bertrand, I feel like Pelle could outscore Welbeck by 10 points or more over the next four GWs. Sunderland A and Burnley H look great on paper, but we haven't been killing any teams (besides a flu-ridden Aston Villa). Pelle has the trifecta of form, fixtures, and growing ownership.

To get Baines, I'd have to drop one of my midfielders or strikers which I'm not happy to do at present. Therefore I think a good defence can still be obtained on a fairly decent budget. I can go PVA to Kaboul for an initial outlay of .5 million and then Duff to Chambers for a second outlay of 0.5 million. That'll leave me with the following fixtures until January 10th and 1 million in the bank: Wisdom Taylor Chambers Kaboul Moore Crystal Palace (H) Leicester (H) Sunderland (A) Newcastle (H) Swansea (A) Leicester (A) Everton (A) Burnley (H) Aston Villa (A) West Brom (H) Newcastle (H) Arsenal (H) Swansea (A) Stoke (H) Southampton (A) Chelsea (A) Man City (A) Man Utd (H) Hull (A) Sunderland (H) Arsenal (H) Crystal Palace (H) West Brom (A) Everton (H) QPR (A) West Ham (H) QPR (H) Southampton (H) Chelsea (A) Liverpool (H) Hull (A) West Ham (A) Stoke (A) Crystal Palace (H) Aston Villa (A) Aston Villa (H) Spurs (H) Newcastle (H) Swansea (A) Man City (H) QPR (A) Hull (A) Liverpool (A) Burnley (H) West Ham (A) Man City (H) Aston Villa (H) QPR (H) Leicester (A) Spurs (H) Stoke (A) Liverpool (A) West Ham (A) Man Utd (H) Hull (A) West Ham (A) QPR (A) Southampton (A) Chelsea (H) Liverpool (A) Hull (H) West Ham (H) Stoke (H) Crystal Palace (A) Aston Villa (H)Chambers and Kaboul rotate perfectly as they play for Arsenal/Spurs. Moore also rotates with Wisdom and Taylor. If the chance arises in two GWs and he is still playing, I think I'd go for Alcaraz in place of Moore but I want to see if he holds his place with Distin lurking. I certainly think there's plenty of value available in defence with the five players above costing a total of 22 million.

Actually Mr. P did you go down the whole torture route and estimate what eould have been your position had you gone for these 2 moves instead?

Up against a S'land defense who's confidence will be absolutely shot. I'm confident having Welbeck. Burnley at home after and generally nice fixtures going forward. There's arguments for Pelle too, for sure (tho more short-term with fixtures in mind). Both good choices and probably not a lot between them, tho I'm confident Welbeck is the better long-term option.
