      With Phillips out, Leeds tend to concede more and score less. I think the captaincy is enough

          So with what Mou said, should I hold on one more week to transfer Kane in?
          the initial plan was DCL+Pereira to Kane+Raphinha

          if only do raphinha, I would bench DCL still.
          and if I do both, I would bench Watkins.

          Start / sit GK thoughts please:

          Martinez (Leic) or Mendy (Sou)

          Chelsea more likely to keep a clean sheet but Martinez has been lights out of late....
