b

For playing both in the start 11, I would say A.

A. Pukki's fixture proof.

Kean - if he drops before wilson

A

Β

Only Che player I am considering is Emerson.

Kante - RLC
Hudson-Odoi - Mount - Pulasic
Abraham

#LAMPSLADS

Nooo

Not for a hit

I suppose Lamela would be in the #10 in that not Moura

Hard to call.

I’m beginning to doubt captain Kane given the flux in Spurs attack.

My guess (and it is a guess):

Lloris
KWP Alderweireld Sanchez Rose
Ndombele Sissoko
Son Eriksen Lamela
Kane

Son's PPM are insane. He's not overpriced at all. The key is to get him at the right time.

I'm tempted with Lo Selso

Eriksen looks bored of London?

Get Son if you can, not overpriced imo

A man who is tired of London, is tired of Life. Samuel Johnson.

Personally I would always start van Dijk. Always.

Absolutely

It's crazy. VvD can score.

Don't do it

Yes it is!

Who's the new Bond?

'Time to stop' if it was anything like the last one. Loved Casino Royal, but the other modern ones have been a bit hit and miss.

kdb too important to city's attack to get dropped

He will imo, if not Bilva and Mahrez

He will start imo.

They just dropped points. Know it's early days, but think they will field strongest team

I’m not fussed by KDB when I have Sterling Salah Kane..

there is no way KDB will be getting dropped any time soon based on his performance last weekend

6m with not so much attacking potential in a team likely to concede. Nah!

Azpi was nailed anyway.

Was nailed anyway.
Reece James will be his competition, another one of LAMPSLADS.

AWB.

VvD. Have you ever seen Bissaka shoot? 😛

Vvd

In B, it’s 5m def*

Kane, Martial and a 4.5m is better than either

No one good at 7m atm. Kane+Martial+4.5 def

B - for a couple of weeks
2
X

A. Ceballos. On set pieces.

1. KdB + Rashford. de Bruyne's expected goal involvement is top notch. Rashford on PK's.

Y. Hanley.

^2. AWB - Nailed on, lacks competition, and bonus points to come with cleans.

B, 1, X, and AWB. Would be interesting to see your whole squad tho, as a fellow wildcarder. 🙂

Faily reply to my post above. Great

Salah + Wilson --> Kane + KDB would be a quick fix

you wildcard lot are little slugs! little slugs with no personalities!

Seems a lot of people were triggered by KDB doing well in a position he's hardly ever played in (a formation to counter Spurs attack) - if he's deeper and doesn't return vs Bournemouth he suddenly won't be so essential - imo and I could definitely be wrong (Pukki's fixtures aren't terrible but they aren't great either) and Mane beating Salah after Mo played 120 mins midweek

I think the wildcard should be used for team restructuring. Basically, if a -16 can fix your team, you shouldn't wildcard.

Only teams without Sterling I think should be wildcarding. The rest should be able to manage, and honestly, you should've done more homework before the season and made a team that's capable of jumping on different bandwagons.

I’m pretty sure most will take a -4 this week

There are some obvious pre-season questions that feel answered that warrant a WC:

Didn't get KDB because fears of playing deeper/will he get assists?
Didn't get Martial because he might not play up front?
Didn't get Pukki because he might not make the step up?
Didn't get Ceballos because game time/be playing deep?
Didn't get Soyuncu replace Maguire?
Didn't get AWB because question marks over replicating BAPS potential from last season?
Got Adams/Wesley/Perez/Barkley punts but regret it?
Got double Bournemouth assets assuming they replicate last season?
Got triple Liverpool defense and regret it?

If more than 3 or 4 answers to these questions warrant a change, then I think wildcarding is a no-brainer.

No - it is not THAT bad. It depends on the situation.

I have said before that if you are averaging around 60 points a GW (i.e. 120 points after 2 GWs) and have a team full of starters then you are probably okay. This is because the big scorers switched between the two GWs - GW1 was Man City and Liverpool defence + Sterling, Kane and Salah. GW2 was Pukki, KDB etc. So there are a spread of players who are getting the points, which suggests the player pool is still fairly wide.

If you are averaging a lot less than 60 points a GW then I think it might be time to WC because it means you probably don't have the spread of players who are going to perform.

I think it is a much harder decision to WC when you have 2 GWs where the same players score big. Because if you don't have those players you are already behind, but then if you get them and they flop you are screwed having lost your WC and if they do well you don't really catch up.

Rodriguez hasn't looked good imo, I think Wood is safe.

Not sure who else they have waiting to take his place but he had a good preseason so I think it’s just a matter of time before he gets a goal

KDB + Dinge. Bilva is not even nailed

Aarons to Kelly and Perez to Martial.

any headlines for me 🙂

Yeah what's the gossip from the other side of the curtain?

AWB

AWB if you have Everton cover already

Barkley or Jorginho

Kepa

I would but also depends who you replace him VVD with.

In that order

Keep Cantwell, I assume that’s who you mean

Adrián will have to go quite soon so Pope

Pope. Better Keeper by far and he has no threat of Alisson return. Eventually you will need a transfer for Adrian.

Liverpool Clean sheets don't look nearly as nailed at the moment.

pope

yes

Actually, no

But you have to play Cantwell every week?

I would say no but will work out sometimes

depends on rest of team

I would give Salah at least another week. Worst case scenario at least you've saved 4 points

1st 2.. hold Siggy for AVilla
