        Never know, think they're missing Firmino too, nobody to link up play up top, you have pace and poachers but with City controlling the ball for the most part they need a bit more

      You have decent doublers in your team for 33. I have exact same Chips and I'm using TC in 36 or 37. It's "on who" that's the tricky part.
      36. Salah? Vardy? R.James?
      37. Coutinho?

    WC, FH and BB left
    0.0ITB, 1FT

    I was planning to just transfer Coutinho to Maddison and hold onto the FH but with James not guaranteed as a starter, Doherty a question mark, Weghorst a doubt for game time and no bench I’m thinking maybe best to use the FH in 33 and then WC in 34 and BB in 36/37. Would look to bring in City and some Leicester, Newcastle, etc
