    If I knew he was definitely starting I’d make room to get him in.

    11.4 mill sitting on the bench would hurt too much this week.

    I went for it. YOLO

    Used the free hit as was down to 4 players, one of whom was Mitchell so not too guaranteed to start.

    Now on

    Lloris
    Cancelo Dias Tierney
    Bruno KDB (C) Son Saka Smith Rowe
    Kane Wilson

    Bench Darlow Fernandez Wood Mitchell

    FH Active, transfers made cost 48 so I'd no other option but that was my plan all along and BB next GW all going well as team is loaded (as of now with DGWer's)

    Went with the big 4, Bruno, Kane, Son and KDB and worked around that.

    Darlow
    Tierney, Cancelo, Dier, Saïss
    Gündogan, De Bruyne (vc), Fernandes, Son
    Lacazette, Kane (c)

    Smith Rowe, Yedlin, Davis (fodder)

    No playing sub goalie is a risk.

    Good luck all!

    Had 3 players, so had to FH.

    Leno
    Basham Dias Dier
    Sterling KDB Saka Fernandes Neto
    Wood Kane

    Sanchez Mitchell Webster Davis

    I'm at 1.6m, so i'm no threat to anyone this season. it's hilarious. basically the guy at the top of my league is diabolical, but has just kept his Spurs assets and captained them all season. with Fernandes cos he's a Utd fan.

    captained Sterling, because why the fúck not?

    good luck all.

    Free Hit. I had Laca in all week but opted for a differential in Auba instead.

    Leno
    Stones Dier Cancelo
    Saka Auba KDB (c) Fernandes (v) Son
    Kane Wilson

    Steele - Brewster Mitchell Douglas

    Actually rolled a transfer. Have a feeling it'll be a damp squib of a week

    Dias Cancelo Holding Mitchell
    Son KDB (c) Bruno
    Wilson Brewster

    Not great at all but should be okay as long as Kane doesn't run riot!

    If I'd 8 or 9 playing, I'd have done the same.

    FH but I'm expecting it to end in tears.

    Can just sit back now and cross everything.

    Great thread title btw

    Housemate ran up the stairs, he forgot the deadline was 4.30pm. the worst thing was we were chatting about our FH teams all day and he had his set and ready and was holding out until near deadline to confirm, like myself. You'd be fair low!

    Hey, he could end up having a valuable FH chip yet as this GW could be a shipwreck, who's to know.

    I'm very jealous of ye who didn't use a FH. We're all very dependent on Arsenal, Spurs and City

    I wildcarded as Id no city and wanted 3 of them for the next few weeks. Plan is to BB next gw but will see what happens.
    Areola
    Awb Tierney cancelo Dias
    Bruno son kdb saka
    Wood kane

    Martinez coufal soucek Watkins

    Also hoping Leeds southampton is cancelled next week. Main problem is I dont have salah but I think liverpool have a tough run of fixtures next 5 or 6 gws and Id be captaining kdb or bruno.

    Soooo I went with

    Leno
    Tierney Saiss Stones Dier
    Fernandes Son KDB (c) Sterling Saka
    Kane

    Kilman Brewster & can’t remember who else lol.

    Bit of a punt with Sterling but need a differential to gain some ground

    Brewster in a few teams I've seen. Benched as kinda expected. I went with Davis to save funds and spread elsewhere.

    My keeper starts and no sub goalie. So that's one thing out of my mind.

    All the most transferred in Newcastle defensive assists start too.

    Any disater predictions....

    Leno injured in warmup
    KDB rested and gets 10 min blank, Brighton score a goal.
    Son red after 20 mins, Kane ankle busted.
    Burnley 1-0 with Maguire OG
    Arsenal 0-0 with Laca missing peno.

    Darlow, Yedlin, Wilson and Burke all starting is fantastic news! With Pep's updates on Cancelo being "tired", I need a playing bench!

    So is he like minus 20 or did he just not make the transfers.

    Good balance. I may have went for Shaw instead of AWB and Toby instead of Dier but thats about it.


    Interestingly enough no1 seems to have picked Richarlison who is notoriously well known for scoring vs Wolves....... one to watch tonight. may put a bet on actually

    He just took the screenshots of his FH team was all. Didn't even make any transfers and only has 3 or so players if even and not even sure if armband will end up on Bruno. Game waiting to load up to see the carange he has to face.
