Jackson for me. I do NOT trust Richarlison to be a consistent goal scorer. If Kane leaves I'm steering well clear of all spurs assets.Richarlison (assuming Kane leaves) or Jackson?

My mistrust of Charlie is deep and irrational...!Not even with their fixtures?
Richarlison, extra point for a goal and a clean sheet point.Richarlison (assuming Kane leaves) or Jackson?
Thats what I was thinking as well. I currently have Son. But if Kane leaves, I will switch to Richarlison and maybe upgrade Foden to Bruno.Richarlison, extra point for a goal and a clean sheet point.
Unless we buy a new striker, yes he is. He usually starts alongside Morris. But we have signed Ogbene who might steal some minutes from Ade.@Dirty Schwein . So, Adebayo is nailed starter?
Bruno without doubt.Bruno or Nkunku?
Bruno or Son?
Latest Draft with no money ITB:
Flekken
Gabriel - Estupinian - Ake
Foden - Rashford - Saka - Son - Mitoma
Haaland - Jesus
Subs: Forster, Chilwell, Baldock, Mubamba
I want to replace maybe Foden with Diaby or Jackson cause the latter is more nailed on and Flekken to Onana cause he has been terrible in preseason.
I think if he isn’t injured to start the season he will be more nailed for the left back spot. Even if Gvardiol comes in now I don’t think he starts given he doesn’t know the system.Is Ake more nailed than Akanji? I have my doubts so not picking any. (Thinking Gvardiol will come and take one of the spots)
Darwin is tempting but a completely new midfield at Liverpool and the fact he'll be rotating with Jota puts me off slightly. There's also Watkins and Jesus who are guaranteed to start and are pens. Nkunku is also tempting but I think he'll be playing behind Jackson.What are thoughts on Sterling and Darwin? Had poor seasons but surely will improve and potentially excellent value.

I thought Akanji played more on the right as a RCB or RB? Also Ake has more of a goal threat than Akanji.but why Ake over Akanji? Doesnt Akanji play as much on left back or how? Akanji had most minutes last season if I remember correctly
Definitely no Sterling. Either Nkunju if you can afford the extra 0.5 or go Jackson for the same price as Sterling. Too much completion for the Pool forwards. They have 4 players competing for 2 spots for CF and LW.What are thoughts on Sterling and Darwin? Had poor seasons but surely will improve and potentially excellent value.
If Kane stays, Son is a better pick and a more direct goal threat. If Kane leaves then Richarlison is a better pick cause he will be a midfielder playing as a #9.So far settled on this
Onana (Areola)
Stones, Shaw, Estu (Bell, Beyer)
Saka, Bruno, Maddison, Foden (Mbuemo)
Jackson, Haaland, Darwin
Just question marks on Maddison and Darwin. Are there better alternatives? I could go lower 5m striker with Son instead of Maddison but do not trust Spurs players at the moment.

You better hope Trippier starts well cause with his fixtures, if he doesn’t perform well and if people find a good 4.5 or 5.0 defender performing well, his price will drop pretty quickly.Waiting to see if I make any minor changes, perhaps Höylund unless he costs a fortune... Hoping Brighton doesn't have a crappy season since I've got three from them
Onana - Leno
Henry - Estupinan - TAA - Trippier - P.Torres
Ödegaard - Mbeumo - Mitoma - Rashford - Diaby
João Pedro - Haaland - Cunha

I would look at other 4.5 options cause realistically Newcastle defenders aren’t playable till week 5 and beyond. If they start bad, people WILL drop them and move to other players meaning with the high ownership Botman has he will drop in price.This is not too dissimilar to my team:
Onana
Gabriel, Estupinian, Chilwell

Haaland, Jesus, Nkunku

Although thinking if Rashy or Bruno (+0.5) is the better option? Bruno as captain and with the new stoppage time rules plus being on penalties might be a better option and the 0.5 would mean I don't have to make early moves in case of price rises... Thoughts?
Defense is wayyyy too expensive for my liking. Drop one of them to upgrade Enzo.Team so far :
Ramsdale - Areola
Estu - Shaw - Trippier - Gabriel - Stones
Saka - Bruno - Mitoma - Rashford - Enzo
Haaland - Nkunku - Archer
No money in the bank. Thinking about Ramsdale if they buy Raya.
Maybe to Pickford and then Nkunku to Jesus.
It’s a thinker because subs won’t save you from that Brighton rotation. All those lads will be coming on at some stage, which could potentially be very annoying.
I think that’s true for a lot now with 5 subs. Guys like Foden become higher risk and the bench offers less protection because there is a higher chance of players coming on. Pep doesn’t do it as much, but most teams picks will inevitably appear for their 1 pointer at some stage.
Yes i had that idea, dont know who thought. Probably Gabriel right, since i have Ramsdale?Defense is wayyyy too expensive for my liking. Drop one of them to upgrade Enzo.
Yeah Ramsdale to maybe Onana and you can downgrade both Shaw and Trippier.Yes i had that idea, dont know who thought. Probably Gabriel right, since i have Ramsdale?
Thats a great idea, will try that. Thanks.Yeah Ramsdale to maybe Onana and you can downgrade both Shaw and Trippier.
Yeah Botman will be any 4.5 once I settle on one. Maybe "Pau! Right in the kisser!"I would look at other 4.5 options cause realistically Newcastle defenders aren’t playable till week 5 and beyond.
