    Can’t seem to catch a break and having worst season ever. 2 free transfers here, any recommendations?

    Raya
    Trippier / TAA / cancelo / James
    Salah / martinelli / gross / Kulusevski
    Haaland / Jesus

    Ward / Williams / greenwood / Andreas

    Nothing in the bank

      That's pretty much the template. If you're having a bad season then everyone is. If you're way behind everyone you'll have to shake that up because you won't gain any ground with that team, especially if you perma-cap Haaland.

    Sorry perhaps asked many times, but who to get out of Gross or McAllister?

    Thinking of selling Gundo to either one to save money

    Trossard looks to have saved my GW. Jesus and Martinelli up next, and while I always have a soft spot for United, I do hope for some icing on this particular cake.

          Expect United to score & this would likely be a dirty match. Should be interesting.

    So switched Ramsdale to Sanchez as didn’t want to be relying on Ward off bench- Ward scored double the points of Sanchez. FPL in a nutshell…..

    5pts for Welbeck in a 5-2 win feels like a joke but I'll take it I guess. Don't see any point in keeping him for next week though if he's that uninvolved. Mitrovic or Isak?

    Worth considering downgrading the 8m slot (currently got Diaz) to either a Gross, Sinisterra etc? Losing faith in that price bracket
