    Are you put off by Bruno for next week now that Casemiro will be out?

    United drop a level without him, plus he’ll likely drop deeper in his absence.

      Not massively. Still the heartbeat of the team in many ways. Only takes a pen to change a gameweek for him

      Agree with you that United aren't as good without Casemiro, but I don't think Bruno will drop deeper. Sabitzer or McTominay will come in to replace Casemiro and Bruno will keep the number 10 spot.

      Still a great pick for the double. Sabitzer likely to play in the pivot with Fred.
      He’s just a tricky price to get to

    Was all set to save my second FT but Schar has me thinking again.

    Estupinan to Chilwell worth it for free?

    That way, I’ll have 11 if Schar does plays but still 10 if he doesn’t. Can reevaluate during international break if I want Estu back.
