    From GW 12 on:

    Meanwhile bamford has WHU NEW mun BUR wba
    Watkins has wol BUR wba CRY
    Wilson if fit has WBA lee FUL mcy

    City and Pool are the two big hitting, pricy sides with good fixtures over the second half of December. Pool don't have an attractive forward option and many will have 3 city already or might be wary of Aguero and Jesus splitting time or facing rotation. I can envision strike forces of three cheapies or two cheapies and brewster on the bench to make room for the likes of 3 of Sterling, KdB, Salah, and Mane

      I think your right on the two cheapies and Brewster, but I think people are starting to put a bit more money in defence with Chillwell and Cancelo which doesn't really allow for 3 of those 11.5 mil+ big hitters in midfield.

        I have Cancelo and Robbo and this is what i'm thinking about for GW 12:

        McCarthy (Steer)
        Robertson Cancelo Dallas (KWP Ferguson)
        Salah KdB Sterling Ziyech Bowen
        Bamford Adams (Brewster)

        I think it's possible even with people opting to spend a bit heavier in defense it may just turn out to be a matter of one's preference

          Oh yeah, it's possible, I considered the City double up in midfield but not sure on Sterling and think there is better value elsewhere. Robertson Chillwell Cancelo is a power back 3 I'm going with and seems to be slowly growing in popularity on here.

          GW10 I'll be probably looking like:

          Martinez
          Robbo Chillwell Cancelo
          Salah KDB Ziyech Grealish Jrod
          DCL Bamford

          4.0 Lamptey Coufal Brewster 1.2 ITB

          Almost all of that squad are locks, will have some fun with the Jrod slot - Mahrez, Jota etc.

      Let me remind as well that at the end of this run is GW 16 which is also the wildcard deadline so if you aren't comfortable with 3 cheap forwards long term and you've held you WC until then, you can re-evaluate then right in time for Kane to have FUL LEE avl shu

            maybe, but certainly not now though. If you are worried avoid Neco but he could be a very good short term enabler.

            Chillwell, 5.5, 4.5, 4.5, 3.9 may give you a great rotation option with your 4th & 5th mid too if you want more big hitters ... I would not worry about the issue with upgrading fodder because it is easy to upgrade 3.9 to a 5.5 as part of any reshuffle of formation.

    Is it too much reliant on United to have both Rashford & Bruno for their next two GWs : WBA, sou ?

    I already have Rashford and looking for way to bring Bruno in. Choices between replacing Son or upgrading Rashford.

        Double United for WBA looked juicy before they kept Spurs shut for 88 minutes and Rashford got injured.

        Keeping both Kane & Son doesn't look fit with their coming difficult fixtures too.

      I would hold Robbo over Cancelo or find a way to get both. It might be tight, Cancelo will rise 0.1, Son will fall at least 0.1 but there's outside chance of KDB dropping 0.1 too.

        I've set my mind on shipping Robbo out, Liverpools defence has too many injuries so I don't see many clean sheets. There's always a chance of getting attacking returns but I think there's more value in cheaper players.

          I haven't looked at stats yet, but I feel Roobo has more defensive duty without VVD in the side. That might affect attacking game too.

        Horrible form may just be around the corner, relying on late winners against Brighton, West Brom and Burnley isn't a good look. Not sure more space on the counter compensates for playing a better defense.

        Interesting, I can have this team by GW10:

        Martinez
        Cancelo - Chilwell - James (Lamptey, Dunne)
        KDB - Sterling - Mane - Rodriguez (Bissouma)
        DCL - Antonio - Watkins

        Putting the faith in a team that has looked lackluster so far but has incredible fixtures and a fit striker returning, risky. Could be that Bruno proves better than Sterling.

            double up on chilwell and james with not the best run of fixtures is a little scary. i would swap reece james for a villa or west ham defender.

              I'd be more concerned about doubling up with two defenders subject to rotation (Cancelo, James). I'm going with Cancelo too, I don't expect much rotation but it's not inconceivable that you find yourself with two at the back for a GW or two. I feel you need two nailed defender subs if you're choosing that pair, but maybe I'm too cautious.

                  Grealish, top dog for an improved Villa. Xiyech looks very good but Chelsea have a few that'll impact his FPL returns. DCL a tight third for me because he can be prone to a famine after the feast.

                Was thinking of wildcarding after next round to get some Man City in, but instead for one hit over next two weeks could do:
                Kane/Son/Robbo to KDB(or Sterling)/Jesus/Chilwell. Would need tidying up after - Zaha/ James esp.
                So what do you think?

                    your defence is a benching head ache, I would just do Robbo to 4.5 and Son to Bruno Fernandes and look at a hit (or WC) to bring in City the week after

                      Yep thanks. Happy to have the benching headache as late injuries, COVID, warm-up injuries, means I like a squad without any fodder this season. Son to Fernandes and downgrading Robbo a good plan, tho, which I will consider

                  Can I get away with saving FT here to do a mini WC next week?

                  Martinez
                  Robbo Chilwell Konsa
                  Salah (C) Sterling Son Jrod
                  Dcl Maupay Bamford
                  Steer Anguissa Kilman Mitchell

                  1 FT 0.5 Itb

                    You probably could. But who would you be getting in with the mini WC?

                      Out : Son Maupay Robbo Konsa
                      In : Grealish Vardy Cancelo 5m defender

                      Have yet to zero in on a plan but it's between Vardy & Bruno for me

                        If you're not sure, I'd save. Otherwise, I'd move Maupay this week along with someone else.

                          Yes having 2 FT for next week gives me a lot of flexibility.
                          1. Could go 3-5-2 by moving Maupay to Brewster and reshaping midfield.
                          2. Can fit in any combination of Bruno/Kdb/Vardy/Ziyech/Grealish/Antonio depending on form and injuries
                          3. Can see how Spurs do in a big game Vs City ( Keeping Son could even be an option after all!)

                      Sounds like a good plan.
