This is some dumb shit...
This is some dumb shit...
He's just been too hot and cold this season for me to risk.Salah with their double? Or too expensive, two awkward aways and causes problems getting Haaland back in?
This is some dumb shit...
-20 without full DGW bench..Great planning
My pal has a tricky benching scenario...who does she leave out of this 12?!?
ARRIZABALAGA
CHILWELL TRIPPIER SHAW ESTUPINAN
RASHFORD MITOMA SAKA ODEGAARD
TONEY WATKINS KANE
Has Ward, Bailey & Tarko on the bench too...
Maybe a -4 for a BB of Ward to Brighton keeper and then Tarko to someone playing twice?
If it's benching headache then yeah no brainer to take the -4 and BB. Bailey with a double as well.
Bailey to Bruno (as she has 5.7m spare)
Or Tarko to someone doubling?
Which is better bet?
I wouldn't bother taking Bailey out as surely that money is needed to get Haaland back. I'd bin Tarko and Ward and BB. Steele and Zouma maybe?
I think this is a perfect week for bench boost, right? 34 doesn’t fill me with confidence
Even though I have Toney, hope he gets a yellow and a massive haul in game 1 so that he misses our game
Big players @dirty @CassiusClaymore @Cutch @Rhyme Animal @Dan_F @BeforeKeanetherewasRobson , anyone else.
Doublers who could play (i.e. my Leicester keeper won't)
DE GEA Ward
TRIPPIER BOTMAN CHILWELL White Tarkowski
RASHFORD (C) MITOMA Saka Martinelli Andreas
TONEY WATKINS Kane
Tempted to try and go big and go
1)Ward & Andreas to Steele & Salah/Bruno for -4 and then play BB for 10 doublers, 3 Arsenal v Leeds and Kane.
However, both options don't allow Haaland in next week.
Worth going with it? And if so Bruno or Salah?
Alternative option if wanting to keep Haaland money back?
And if you go with a second Brighton midfield in March/MacAllister, can you afford Toney/Watkins to Haaland next week? I'm in a similar boat and considering there's a very big chance I'll want Haaland ASAP, I'm inclined to pass on BrunoBig players @dirty @CassiusClaymore @Cutch @Rhyme Animal @Dan_F @BeforeKeanetherewasRobson , anyone else.

I wouldn’t do Steele. I just think Sanchez is being taught a lesson and find it unlikely he will not play again this season. I also think you will want three Brighton outfielders at some stage even if that didn’t happen.
I would be more tempted to look for small upgrades on Ward/Tarkowski/Andreas (Maybe Kepa/DGW Def/Mac Allister, that would increase your doubles and keep your money for Haaland?
You will need Haaland back so the sacrifice will have to come if you do what you are suggesting.

Agreed. Haaland has to come back in. He'll kill you if he doesn't.
The difficulty, is I have a strong 11, so if I did Andreas to say McAllister (8.3m in bank so plenty to bring Haaland back in next week), I'd have to work out how to get him into the 11 - difficult benching decision.
And BB would only have him & White on there.
So I need to do something with the non playing Ward really, as Tarko at least has a game and is useful for the odd cleany later on.
So is it Ward to A Keeper, AND MacALLister for 4 points then? To avoid Haaland issues next week?
(ps only have Mitoma from Brighton right now)
I think these sorts of decisions are unavoidable for the rest of the season. With the blanks and DGW I imagine a lot of players will be rolling with at least 13-14 viable starters because they will need to be holding certain assets and planning for the juggling from 32 onwards.
Better to have a benching headache than 1-2 potential starters in fixtures you don’t fancy.
I am looking at the exact same move currently.Is it worth taking a -4 for Fernandes (2 games) at the expense of Martinelli (Leeds home), any advice ? Thanks.
Any suggestionsThis is for my draft. No price involved
Harrison vs Jensen vs Bailey vs Bowen/Benrahma for one week punt
Is there a better BB use than this week?
If only from these options (ie no Brighton mid) I’d go WHU.Any suggestions
Precisely my thinking.I think these sorts of decisions are unavoidable for the rest of the season.

Ward to playing keeper plus Andreas to Brighton mid and possibility to bring Haaland with FT next week pays -4 off for me.The difficulty, is I have a strong 11, so if I did Andreas to say McAllister (8.3m in bank so plenty to bring Haaland back in next week), I'd have to work out how to get him into the 11 - difficult benching decision.
