        The 2.4 mil is burning a hole in my pocket!
        I cannot remember ever having a team I want with that amount of spare cash.
        It is the chasm of 7.5 to 12.1 in the mids that is creating the pain.
        It burns my backside McGinn is a sub most of the time. When Chelsea play Citeh he comes in vs Newcastle though.

    One point the stats and eye test keep showing is that I shouldn't expect a clean sheet for any club facing Potter's Brighton. A CS against them can happen, but it comes with the feeling that the defenders were lucky...

    So just had this AH..HA! moment, and realized what a great captain pick Pukki would be for this Friday night game! Looks like a perfect bounce back game for him, with potential multiple goal involvement. Would make it even sweeter after so many have lost faith and transferred him out. I'm doing it, well worth the risk in my view.

                            Yeah buddy...Whoever you replace him with, make it a long term buy. So the effect of the minus 8 would be minimal in the long run or you could also just ride it out this gw but he really stinks in your team

                          Don't think that you need to do another FT,but can suggest Digne to Robbo or Yarmo to Martial.GL.

                            If Mount is even slightly injured they shouldn’t bring him on. Start him instead of soyuncu

                          On a wildcard; any reason I should get soyuncu instead of Johnny Evans. Slight saving if I get Evans.

                            Every single corner went to Evans last week (apart from one of course). Don't mind him as a bit of a differential. Hopefully his injury problems are a thing of the past.

                              I'm leaning towards the attack of Mendy over the clean sheet of VVD but it's hard to call
