    Is Maddison dropping later? I need time to assess my options. If he is dropping, I'll need to transfer him out now to not lose the 0.1m

      Looks ok, Robertson will get more more points than Van Dijk though, downgrade one of gray/Brooks to enable it?

        actually Van Dijk is the one who has been getting a lot of chances recently (at least in the games i watched)
        at the start of the season there wasnt much to choose between them and i'd say thats still the case - dont let a bit of variance persuade you that van dijk isnt a good option because he most certainly is

      Looks dece. Not sure on double WH defence. Also, is that Demarai Gray? I’d maybe downgrade to Camarasa or Diangana to upgrade elsewhere.
      VVD to Robbo?
      AWB to Chilwell?

    Getting rid of Barkley as he played full 90 in europa league, unfortunately have to lose Murray too. Which pair to bring in?

    A) Anderson & Ings (Doherty will start when the fixtures toughen up)
    B) Martial & Success (Doherty starter, AWB, Hoij on bench)

        Personally considering A atm. Ings playing Fulham next week and can be a great rotator, Success likely to be dropped soon so might just end up being bench fodder. Anderson obviously great fixtures, though no denying Martial in great form

          Cheers mate, think I will go down that route, not too enamoured with Ings but I can just think of him as a bench option after the next couple of fixtures. Good point re Success, Deeney will be back soon too, maybe even this weekend.

            exactly. I think Jimenez slightly better than Ings, though I can't get him personally as have 3 Wolves already

    Does everyone else feel that they are perpetually 3-4 GWs away from the "perfect team".
    11 seasons in and its always like that.

    20 min to price changes, so it is almost guaranteed that Anderson won't rise right?

    Just realised that I bought Maddy at 6.6, so a bit of breathing space at least!
    Might just play Jimenez rather than pulling the trigger for Martial/Rich(-4) this GW. Away at City and away at Chelsea look poor hits on paper!
    Will be toying with me until deadline though...
