    Jota, Greenwood, Torres - lots of parallels. I think ride their respectkve trains till they conk out then switch to the likes of Raphina and Sarr

    - There's no cheap forward bandwagons unless Armstrong or Toney have some momentum
    - The three above have great ceilings and great potential. Sure they could all flop in a week or two. A -4 to shift all 3 to the next flavours of the moment will pay off imho

      Could work, only issues is sarr, traore etc have good fixtures now and if they take off they are going to climb in price, but the same works the other way

      Seems risky to ride all 3 at the same time, but yeah high ceilings & if you have FTs saved, go for it
