But it's Watkins. He's had his purple patch and I think he will go missing now.3 games for Watkins vs 1 game for Haaland. It has to work out

Who do you have for him in your team? None of Watkins, Havertz, Isak instill any confidence.Don't be scared in a week he doesn't play. Be scared the week after.
I've got the money to bring him straight back.
That's essentially what I did but instead of Bueno it was Estupinian.I had a fleeting thought of a wildcard to BB next week. But there's a few things that ward me off.
Arsenal home to Leeds is a great single.
You'd want City/United/Liverpool/Brighton coverage really, so have to choose only 4 for those teams, or go in <11 players this week.
Might wildcard next week.
But unless anyone can stop me.
Bueno & Haaland to Chilwell & Watkins for -4 seems the percentage play to field 10. (Unless Ward does end up playing)
If I could have afforded Bueno & Andreas to Chilwell & Maddison it might have worked, but 1) I can't, and 2) Maddo is just as likely to disappear off injured for weeks,

Pushing the button on the bolded?
If you FH, next week you will start back with 1 free transfer. I think you might as well take couple of hits and get 11 on rather than play FH to be honest.@Dirty Schwein
i am going to FH this week as i only have 1 sub and 9 players playing (including Saliba who is a doubt). Question is, if i use FH, i won't have 2 subs next week, correct? Only 1?
Reason for asking is i think i need to use this weeks free sub FIRST (in prep for the DGW's next) and then FH - meaning the player i bring in for the DGW will still be there once the FH has been played and my team reverts "back to normal" for the DGW? Otherwise i essentially "lose" a sub if i play my FH first. Not sure if this makes sense?
There's little down side and with money not an issue, you can easily get Haaland back.Need some advice. Is it worth it to do a -4 this week to get a full 11 out? Basically doing the popular transfer of Haaland to Watkins or Havertz. But I'm scared to transfer out Haaland.
It took this much time for that ballsack of a human being who manages him to realize that.Yeah but that's not new news is it
Yeah it is tricky which arsenal player to pick so maybe just take the easier route of Maddison, but his price will block me from getting all of Shaw, Bruno and Haaland in the team in 29 and whereas arsenal mids are cheaper.I have Martinelli in my team but I'm dreading that he's going to be benched. He played the full 120min midweek and Trossard started on the bench. It's risky to transfer him in this week.

Depends if you're chasing doubles. I always am and I played my WC two GWs ago and without taking hits, am able to field 11 players this week and 13 DGW players next week (with one hit)...WC team with 10 players with fixtures this GW and players in bold have a DGW in 29 (intend to BB).
I have £1.1m in the bank - any suggestions considering this GW or the DGW?
Raya
White, Trippier, Cash, Chilwell
Maddison, Martinelli, Saka (c)
Toney, Haaland, Kane (v)
Subs: Navas, Rashford, Shaw, Mitoma
Only change I'm considering is taking out either White or Martinelli but I'm not sure who for to be honest. May just leave them and take one of them out for a DGW fixture after the international break.
I am on 10 players this week and tempted to take a -4 hit to get kane in for haaland. Any thoughts?Depends if you're chasing doubles. I always am and I played my WC two GWs ago and without taking hits, am able to field 11 players this week and 13 DGW players next week (with one hit)...
Don't think I'd be lining up with 10 on a WC.
Thanks bud. Yeah, it all depends on news re Saliba i guess.If you FH, next week you will start back with 1 free transfer. I think you might as well take couple of hits and get 11 on rather than play FH to be honest.
10 in 28 and 14 dgw in 29 for me with no hitsDepends if you're chasing doubles. I always am and I played my WC two GWs ago and without taking hits, am able to field 11 players this week and 13 DGW players next week (with one hit)...

I'm locked in. Disaster of a team and expecting feck all progress but here we are
Kepa
Botman, Trippier, Zinchenko, Chilwell, Henry
Saka(vc), Martinelli
Kane(c), Twatkins, Toney
Almiron is out for 3 weeks.Ok I'm 0.3m short of Bueno & Andreas to Chilwell and Maddo, so have to pick one or the other.
Might be best to do Chilwell and Almiron then.
Well shit, this just came out and apparently indeed injured in the training - this is why I hate to do early transfersAlmiron is out for 3 weeks.
Who do you have for him in your team? None of Watkins, Havertz, Isak instill any confidence.

Welp. I already had Kane in my team for sometime. So I'm all aboard the Watkins train. Watch him blank now.I didn't have Kane so that was easy for me. I have Kane, Watkins and Toney up front. Watkins has scored in all of his last 6 games bar one so he should fill you with confidence.
Of blanking in the next 5 games?so he should fill you with confidence.
That is a good move.I am on 10 players this week and tempted to take a -4 hit to get kane in for haaland. Any thoughts?
Once you play FH, it overrides everything. Your team will go back to the team it was LAST GW.Thanks bud. Yeah, it all depends on news re Saliba i guess.
Also, if i make my 1 free sub this week before i FH (example: i bring in a chelsea defender for a City one), and then play my FH, when my team reverts back to "normal" next week...i'll have 1 transfer but it'll be the chelsea defender in and not the City defender, correct? More of a "technical query" I guess, because i know when i FH this week, my 1 free sub doesn't carry over into 2 next week. I will still only have 1.
Stop showing off you jobber.10 in 28 and 14 dgw in 29 for me with no hits
Tarkowsky has Ariel threat. I bet your higher OR than me too.Usual drill. Looked at your team think like that, like that a lot.
Then I would do, my team is basically a slightly crapper version, with no keeper, and Tarko instead of Henry!!
Prepare for pain.Going James on free hit. This will be a disaster if he comes on for a point, but I have to go for him with his ceiling.
I don't want to chase the doubles too hard as there are some good single week fixture.Depends if you're chasing doubles. I always am and I played my WC two GWs ago and without taking hits, am able to field 11 players this week and 13 DGW players next week (with one hit)...

Tweak on my WC to have a full 11 this week and 11 players with a DGW in 29.
Single GW players in 29:
Martinelli and Saka vs Leeds at home
Kane vs Everton away (great record against them)
Haaland vs Liverpool at home. A bad fixture but I will lose a lot of value if I switch him to Watkins and will probably want him back in 30. Or gamble on be brave and gamble on Solanke??
Suppose at this stage of the season, I need not worry about losing some value...
Thats's true, I'm giving Haaland the boot. Watkins is the safer choice but I'm tempted to go for Solanke. Is that crazy?!Let's put it this way, I took Haaland out and I currently have 8.3m in the bank now!
Value isn't that important as we enter the run in. Not in a season with so many low price options.
Yes hahahaThats's true, I'm giving Haaland the boot. Watkins is the safer choice but I'm tempted to go for Solanke. Is that crazy?!
It's not really that much worse than going for an utterly shit player like Watkins, just that the latter has scored more recently. Chelsea striker looks more like the money move to me, 4 home games in next 5 including dogshit defenses like Everton Liverpool etc. Just better quality players.Thats's true, I'm giving Haaland the boot. Watkins is the safer choice but I'm tempted to go for Solanke. Is that crazy?!
Thank youYes hahaha
