Richarlison injured after I transfer out Bruno for him. Feck sake.

This is why I leave my transfers last minute this season and with team value having no impact anymore (I've sold Salah), especially so.

Yep, it's the safety of getting it all done and banked, versus the last min risk isn't it. And escape the last 10min madness hoping for a City leak.

I've held off so far, but tempted to do it tonight just in case. Will probably do 2 transfers free now.

Then scan around last min and consider a -4.
 
I’ve only got one City player (Haaland) but I’ve already took a -4 for transfers.

Thinking Salah or Saka out for a City midfielder?? Worth another -4?

I usually do it Friday night, as I am not on my phone Saturday lunchtime.

It's enough to get me presser info, so only the City leaks are not available but I avoid City players bar Haaland anyway.

Yep, I've done my 2 freebies now. At least they're banked now, and what happens happens.

Will give it a quick check late doors tomorrow in case anything else has come out or I want to take a double week gamble for giggles.
 
Onana in. KDB captain. BB active. One final wank against the wind...

Onana Areola
Romero Gusto Burn Gabriel Reguillon
KDB Foden Palmer Son Saka
Haaland Isak Jackson

Assuming Gusto should be fine to play as he came on late in their last fixture? Currently have 0 United players and 0 Brighton players. Topped up on Toon (3), City (3), Spurs (2), Chelsea (2) and have 2 free transfers. Will definitely play BB this week but who do I bring in, in attack: Jacskon, Hojlund or Pedro and as a defender or GK: Verbruggen, Onana or Dalot/Dunk? Tempted to maybe go for a hit (-4) but not too keen on any other Spurs/United/Brighton assets.

Jackson and a Spurs defender. That’s also the most template, so it really depends whether you feel like gambling or if you just want to max overall rank.

You must be quite desperate not going with Haaland though.

I need to make up a 22 point differential in my league. He will captain Haaland. Im thinking my best bet is a different captain.

I did the same. Are we sure he’s out though?

«Despite Postecoglou's admission, concerns over Richarlison suffering a new injury have emerged courtesy of Brazil boss Dorival Junior. “Richarlison has not been called up for the Copa America also due to fresh injury he has suffered," he said when explaining the Tottenham star's absence from his Copa America squad.

“He’s not available, he had new injury and this is why he’s not in the list." Following his goal and assist against Liverpool, the absence of Richarlison would be a blow. With that in mind, Postecoglou was asked about the forward's future with his answer certainly not hinting he will be absent.

"Richy has been really good for us this year," he said. "You've got to remember when I took over he had scored one goal for the club and for all intents and purposes, the jury was pretty much out on him in terms of any contribution. He has got in the double figures this year, I am pretty sure, and he has missed a huge chunk of it, but every time he has played he has looked effective like he did against Liverpool.»
 
Went for Gvardiol for my one FT. Will bench the arse CB duo and play Branthwaite, Gusto and Gvardiol.

If Saka does miss out, it's for a Arse defender.
 
Last min call. On BB having made my 2 freebies.

Saka to Gordon or Bruno for -4?

Not 100% sure if Bruno is back to be fair.
In recent weeks I've been glad I didn't ship Saka so maybe should follow that same logic.

Ten Hag said Bruno’s back in training so I think he’ll play, especially with Mount injured again. He very rarely misses a game through injury as well so I doubt he’s going to miss 2 in a row.

Sounds like a wrist injury too rather than something more critical to play.
Could still be sore but you dare say they'll find a way.
 
Last minute transfers, had 2 to play with and did another 2 for a -8. Playing bench boost.

No real thought gone into it, just winged it, not been keeping up with this lately.

Van Hecke, Luis Diaz, Toney, Darwin > Cucurella, Gordon, Jackson, Isak

Neto, Areola
Gabriel, Saliba, Cucurella, Akanji, Branthwaite
Palmer, Foden, Salah, Saka, Gordon
Solanke, Isak (C), Jackson

Was tempted to go for 3rd City player for another -4 but couldn't figure out who. Haaland out of reach, Solanke > Alvarez uninspiring, middies/defenders always at risk of Pep roulette.
 
No last min -4.
They tend not to be smart calls so it is what it is.
Best of luck all.
 
Got drunk last night, checked my team just now and I brought Wilson in instead of Isak. Ffs.

Didn't know who to bench so panicked and landed on this. At least have some cover if Bruno doesn't make it.

Thats BB right, the bench is highlighted. So what cover for Bruno you have in mind? I’m in the same spot and only hoping he starts both games

35 off the leader in our group (if I played TC chip last week it would’ve been 10 :( ) and I’m currently second spot. Money league, so still a decent payout for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Guy who’s third is 60 points off me. Think I’m happy to follow the template and hold, and try and gamble on the TC chip next week. If I end second, I still score around 6times what I put up to join. 1st just gets a bit more at 10 times. All good though, didn’t expect to do this well. I went with Jackson and Vicario in the end.
 
Top guy hasn't played his bench boost. He's holding it to try win the cup as well the greedy git.

I guess I now have to sit and watch Haaland destroy me again.
