Fairs I guess having 2 or 3 players out injured is a good a reason as any to wildcard.

How are you going to get 4 or 5 players back when you have 3?
Doesn't seem an outrageously difficult task does it?
I was working on the assumption that people were wildcarding because Arsenal and City weren't playing and were thus getting rid of them. None of my main players have got serious injuries and the 2 that do I can transfer out now and next week, meaning I don't need to waste a wildcard.
Guehi or Webster for bringing in till the WC?
I'm starting to think Salah to Antony was a bit... Hasty
Yep, you're most probably ok, although if you can't see a better reason you've got to use one in the next 5 weeks anyway.
I'll probably use it next week, as my initial plan was simply 3 of their players out with 3 free transfers, but then TAA and Bailey got injured, with Jesus, James and Martial yellow flagged too. But will await more news tomorrow before the deadline, although a Friday game is always gives less time for news to emerge.
Most likely Martinelli, Cancelo and Haaland are the 3 to keep, and I'd suck up a slight loss on Saliba, and Jesus oddly hasn't picked up from his initial 8m so he's an easy out.
Guehi's fixtures are superb at 4.3m too!
But will they actually keep any cleanies.
If I go through with my planned TAA & Bailey to someone and Zaha, it might be a decision between him and Dalot.
Antony doesn’t look like a big goal scorer at all. I think a few wonder goals have really masked a few weaknesses. Fully expect that to correct itself over the next five games or so.
How come you have to use it? Not sure how it works this year, I assumed it was the usual get a 2nd wild card at new year? Do they not stack?
I also assumed the free transfers during wc was just a bouns as well.
I best go read the rules
Anyone considering Creswell?
Well you don't have to use this wildcard, but you'll lose it if you don't play it pre world Cup.
Then get infinite transfers across the world cup
Thank you, yeah just read the same. That's annoying as I got rid of Martinelli last week in anticipation for his blank fixture when I could have just wc next week
I'll admit, this is my worst start to a season in line 6 years. Didn't help that I was in Malaysia for 8 weeks and couldn't focus. But to be fair, even now when I'm back, still doing shit.Last year we did a lot of the same stuff.
I kinda feel glad we're not this year
Yeah that's a good plan of action - I reckon you're set. The bold three are definitely keepers. I'd be looking at trying to get Foden in post GW12.
Defence has become a bit of a crapshoot. Dier for 5.1 is tempting...
I think I will go Coufal to Guehi tomorrow
James to cucurella
Trossard to zaha ?
Trossard to zaha ?
Yep Tottenham look tight, so it's just which defender to get on. Perisic was the glamour, but doesn't seem to play enough.
And out of the rest Dier seems the nailed one. Scored a goal recently too.
Will weigh that up too, but would kill my Zaha punt. Which is one of those dangerous frustrating games waiting his occasional 15 pointers!
People have been clamouring to get Trossy in recently. But Zaha's fixtures certainly stand out.

I’d keep Trossard mainly for his GW12
Any update on James? He’s costing me too much snuway time to move him on
Missing the Villa game, hoping that he will make the Brentford game.

News on Martial?
Yeah thinking more about Palace defense too as their fixtures are better. Also thinking to just play Neco for now and get the one point or whatever. Dalot is interesting but can't see a clean sheet in the next three games. Maybe after that.
Exactly the same for me. Got Coufal on WC exactly for situations like these but he managed to get dropped the moron.
Bench Webster or Andreas? Playing Raya and Toney already so common sense says bench Webster, but I have a feeling that could be a mistake.
Was considering a Salah/Plange swap for Kane/ Maddison. But now think I need to get rid of James. Was willing to take a -4 but definitely don't want a -8. Salah catching fire midweek has put doubt in my head though.
Although, Plange has obviously been a 4.5 perma sub. So Kane/Maddison would mean I could bench James for a week I suppose.

TAA to Dier - never thought I'd see the day. And I'm actually getting a better defender hehe
Think I'll have to WC next week, although I want to keep Haaland, Cancelo, De Bruyne and Martinelli. Although I'll probably change De Bruyne to Foden just because of the WC.

Perfect. Means you can take a punt on someone like Trossard and keep the funds spare to transfer him to Foden in 13.
Sauce?
He was apparently in Milan yesterday so guessing people see that as him being given time off and not expected to be in next match
I read the same, he's definitely out this game... Potter said he will hopefully be back for GW12, if not, then the United game. Typical James... injured when you need him.
was thinking of taking a -4 and doing KBD, Jesus, Diaz OUT. Kane, Maddison, Foden IN.
Played it safe and just did Zaha for Diaz.
Im top of a couple mini leagues and 280k overall so doing very well by my usual standards - will potentially take a -4 next week.

GW9
Coufal in on the WC, gets dropped
Bailey in, gets injured
Mitro in, gets injured
GW10-11
Zouma in for Coufal in GW10, now a doubt for GW11
James a doubt
And it'll likely only get worse with the schedule in the coming weeks!
Makes it interesting I guess. My only blessing is only 1 City/Arsenal asset on my books!

Is that a blessing when you've been missing out on their points (and again potentially this weekend)?
James > Doherty this week for me.
Wildcarded it this week with Arsenal-City not playing next week in mind. should end up with 2 free transfers that week.
Sa
Cancelo
Trippier
Saliba
Rashford
Maddison
Foden
Martinelli
Kane
Haaland
Toney
Ward, Andreas, Williams, Castagne
Will likely transfer our one of Cancelo and/or Foden next week and bring them in pretty much straight after. Kinda banking on City spanking Pool this weekend.

Blimming heck, so maybe not just a marginal "might miss this game" then!?
75% chance likely to play might be doubtful then!!
Yep. I like Doherty this week. Quite a few will miss this news and Doherty has high attacking potential. Also nailed as Emerson is suspended for next 2.
Don't hate it!
Assuming James is worse than they say, and it seems 50-50 in reports, I have
TAA/James/Bailey injured and Martial probably too.
6 Arsenal/City
Probably looks a good week to do a wildcard even though it's not usually optimal doing it right at the end, especially with City at Anfield.
Who are the absolute nail ons for a wildcard?
@Cutch @CassiusClaymore @Moby
@BeforeKeanetherewasRobson @Dirty Schwein
Maddison, Zaha, Bowen? Any of those?
Kane probably?
Thinking ditching KDB/Jesus/Saliba to leave Martinelli, Cancelo and Haaland.
