  Maddison, anyone pushing barnes as the better option, want it to believe he is, as a budget option, but he just isnt.

Im doing grealish to barnes as one of my 2 moves But could be priced out if grealish drops tonight.

Would you risk barnes move now - or wait to see if any leaked team news tomorrow....my tranfer plans would be up the creek if grealish drops tonight ??

Thanks

Pull the trigger or wait? Both could possibly drop.

Son+Grealish >> Bruno+Barnes (-4)?

Leaving this team & MITB to upgrade defence next GW.

McCarthy
TAA / Soy / Aurier
Salah(C) / Traoré / Barnes / Bruno
Vardy / Jiménez / Ings
(McGov. Rico. KDB*. Lunds*)

Suppose he did set up lukaku tonight, could be in for some form.

  They are occasionally put back on! But the majority of comments that are reviewed have a banned word in them or something that needs to be taken off.
