        Still think Mitro gets more over the medium term. These moves seem to have immediately gone this way for me all season though.

        Toney to Kane the week he got the hattrick being particularly rough.

    In GW 7 postponement the right transfer was selling TAA not Jesus in hindsight, but it is easier said in hindsight, that's why this game is so fun and addicting.

    I've decided that after the blank I'll get Jesus back most probably
