    For me it's not a question of whether Haaland will start (I reckon he will be pn the bench)

    ... buy whether it is worth a -4 to do Haaland > Isak/Watkins?

      Possibly. I would expect Brentford to concede in both their games. Shaw at home against Brentford has a better chance of a clean sheet than away at Newcastle - especially if Toney is booked and misses out. He is dangerous for assists, too. On the other hand, Mee pops up with a goal now and then. Tricky decision for you.

    My bench boost looked rubbish so, given that I am in good shape for 32, I am free hitting.
    One or two uncertain picks. I am tempted by Bowen or Ings. Not 100% set on Fernandes or Havertz yet.

    Steele
    Trippier / Shaw / Chilwell
    Mitoma / Mac Allister (v) / Maddison /Rashford (c) / Fernandes
    Watkins / Havertz

    I think this will help me keep pace with the Bench Boosters particularly if there are hits flying around. I'm at 25K overall and no hits taken all season. Bench boosting would have needed a -12 in all honesty. No way I am doing that. Intriguing game week this.

        This season, I set myself the challenge of resisting hits. Paid off so far. The ones that were the most tempting 75% of the time wouldn't have paid off when I checked players' scores. It makes a difference not taking those -4s!
