    Guys, why i see some post asking if they should sell Henry and Mee for other DGW defenders? Are they not guaranteed of starts for both matches?

      I guess it’s because they don’t want their defenders vs Arsenal attack

      Nah, just people don't like Brentford's fixtures that's all. Falling into the assumption that the likes of Shaw/Chilwell/Botman will outscore them.

    I'm just gonna captain Rashford, I think just having Bruno and March is differential enough. Bruno v Maddison could be an interesting battle this GW, probably a lot of 50/50 calls there between who to transfer in and similar ownership.
