    How is this team looking?
    Pope, Ward
    James, Trippier, Cancelo, Gabriel, Neco
    Foden, Martinelli, Almiron, Rashford, Andreas
    Kane, Haaland, Darwin

    Will probably look to get in Mitro and Mount for the DGWs

        Slight benching issue here and I find it amusing that the player I would most likely bench is James.

      How would you complete this? Trying to get some differentials in there:

      A: Robbo + Rashford
      B: James + Foden
      C: James + Kulu

      Pope | Ward
      Cancelo | Tripps | Doherty | Neco | *
      Salah | Martinelli | Almiron | Andreas | *
      Haaland | Darwin | Nketiah

      Thanks!

            Not for me, Liverpool defence hasn't been the same this season and the fixtures are tough from a defensive perspective. Villa are a different force under Emery, I'd always fancy Leicester to score, then Brentford are strong at home/have been strong against top opposition this season. Brighton & Chelsea don't get any easier.

                but you don't bring in Robinson for the defensive. You bring him in for potential attacking returns. If you wanted a Liverpool defender you go for Gomez or Matip - if you only want the defensive returns

            Even if he doesn't hit those heights, his stats still say he is performing very well for an asset valued at 5.8m.

            I'll just have to bet against him, and hope his purple patch is over.

            Hopefully the returns of Isak and ASM will mess with Almiron's playing time.

                  Yes, but going for Martial right now gives you time to see if Mitro gets that 5th yellow before the double. Mitro isn't fully fit either.

              I think it's very close, but Trossard just shades it. He'll be playing upfront for another two to three weeks at least and will have a double (or triple) gameweek in gw21. Zaha has also had a good season though and is on penalties, so both are good options.

                There is that haha but if he gets chances he’s got to put a few away

            Threemium with Kane. Rashford could be Salah and Kane could be Martial.
            0.8 in bank.

            Kepa (Ward)
            James Shaw Trippier (White Patterson)
            KDB Rash Almiron Martinelli (Andreas)
            Kane Haaland Darwin

            How's this looking?
            Kepa (Ward)
            Cancelo, Trippier, White (Patterson, Bueno)
            KDB, Rashford, Martinelli, Almiron (Andreas)
            Kane, Haaland, Darwin

            Defence a bit light but that's the price to pay for a threemium plus Cancelo.

              Yes, very similar to mine (see above) except you have Cancelo and Bueno to my James and Shaw. Your team value must be somewhat higher.

            Thoughts on this squad?
            0.9 itb
            No Salah/kdb and have spread the funds instead.

            Ward, Kepa
            Cancelo, Trippier, James, Gabriel, Castagne
            Rashford, Zaha, Kulu, Martinelli, Trossard
            Haaland, Wilson, Darwin

            Benching headache the obvious downside so do you think one should make way for one of Salah/kdb/Kane?

            Will walker be in the city starting squad?

            Kepa / Ward

            Trippier / Walker / White / Shaw / Bueno

            KDB / Miggy / Rashy / Martinelli / Andreas

            Kane / Darwin / Haaland

            Everyone seems to have funds to have James or Cancelo at the back with this template but I can only afford Walker so my team value must be low - sad times

                You could have stronger defenders if you dropped Nunez. I think your defense is fine though.

                  Cheers, something to consider! Perhaps Wilson or Mitro

                Walker is first choice, but carries a rotation risk. If you really want James, I think you can afford to downgrade Shaw personally. Otherwise, can you stretch to Walker > Gabriel?
