    So, I'm a wildcarder determined to go with 4.5/Hamer (I'll accept risk for what it lets me do further forward).

    On that basis, is it better to go with Henn for now and switch out when CP's fixtures turn, or set and forget another keeper? (Thinking Pat, or maybe even Hart?)

    Thanks all, and good luck today.

      Switching between cheap GKs is a good way to burn through those precious FTs. I'd steer towards someone who you'll be happy to keep until the 2nd wildcard.

      I'm in a similar situation. Thinking Hennessy for the next few then maybe a switch to Ryan when he is 4.4 and Brightons games improve. I'm not keen on Patricio as Wolves defenders seem much better value.

      Depends if you want to double, cos I assume you've got AWB and a Wolves defender.

      Jonty spoke very persuasively about Hart's potential on the scoutcast this week, so maybe him

    Not convinced on Salah for that price but found myself with 3,7 ITB and Mané instead of him, so decided to upgrade.
