Playing twice at home. Doesn't get much better for 4m I reckon.

Yeah for sure, for that price. I'm stuck with Pope in net and Ward in defence, with Long on the bench. Really happy with my team but not so much with those for this week. Hoping they get points other than clean sheets, because it's unlikely and I also have Mahrez and Vardy. Plus want Chelsea to overtake Liverpool.
 
Just spent the past hour trying to figure out what team to play. Ended with:

Pope
Davies / Tarkowski / Maguire
Eriksen (c) / Son / Ozil / Salah
Auba / Vardy / Murray

Bench boost: Milivojevic / Dunk / Daniels (and a keeper who won't play)

I was going to play bench boost on GW37 but after doing some hypothetical transfers there's no way I'll be able to make a half decent bench so I'd rather just TC Kane that week. Bringing in Tarkowski this week also means one less transfer next week with most of the big teams not playing.

Burnley have Leicester and Chelsea though, so a clean sheet is very unlikely.

I was in a similar situation and went with Chilwell. He has a risk of rotation but seemed the best option.
 
Bench boosting this week. With Kane and Lukaku up front and playing two games each I'm hoping for a good week.
 
I know I'm early, but thoughts on this free hit team;

----------------Ederson
------Mustafi - Baines - Robertson
De Bruyne - Salah - Zaha - Arnautovic
-----Aubameyang - Jesus - Firmino

Subs: Hennessy / Long / McArthur / Kenny
 
Doesn't matter who I have in defence, Vardy always fecks me over.
 
Damn, Naughton scored an OG.

Vardy bagged and he's my captain so happy with that.

I just hope Liverpool and City do feck all as I took their players out of my team.
 
My 'squad' players (Simpson, lowton, gross, Barnes etc) just aren't delivering. Terrible week so far. Luckily they all have another game in the gw so let's see if they can do any better in midweek.

Really need Lukaku to get some goals against West brom
 
So.. I recommended Long to 3-4 people in here. Then ignored to sub him in myself and of course he scores :lol:
 
Posted my free hit but would have been better if I didn't.

Robertson and Salah would got me points. But many games to go so fingers crossed.

Edit: also dropped Firminho
 
Saved by Zaha this week. Sanchez as captain so hoping for something from him tomorrow.

Looks good. Do you think Liverpool / Arsenal may rotate with their European Semi Finals the following week though?
 
On a Free Hit, I transferred out Firmino, Salah and Mane.... brought in Kane, Alli and Hazard, Willian..

What a waste of a FH.

I hate this game.

Cheers.

Possibly, yes. I've downgraded Dr Bruyne to Sterling and used the extra funds to upgrade my subs. I now have 3 starting subs from lesser teams to try cover rotation - Long, Lascelles, Milivojevic.

Aubameyang will play as he is cup tied so even if Salah, Firmino, Robertson and Mustafi are all rested I'll have 3 replacements.

I hope my captain Lukaku plays. I've accidentally vice-captained Lowton, presumably when I decided that in a free hit I might as well line up three last day-players as subs. Just fortunate Lukaku isn't due to play last-day I suppose.
 
Why does Davies never play anymore? If he doesn't play the second game, which he probably will now, Long will come on with his badboy 10 points + whatever else he gets.

I have him capped - he will do utterly nothing both games.

But only one player from your bench can be used? so if those four players were rested only the first player on your bench would come into the team
 
I also need advice. None of my strikers are playing next week and I have no idea who to sub in. Klopp and Wenger might go for Europe so Auba/Firmino might not play. I already have three City players elsewhere so getting Jesus in would mean taking -4, worth it?

Auba is cup tied in Europe.

Are you sure?

I think I've had 2 auto subs before. I think they auto sub as long as the formation is still a valid one.
