      Felt like Jota will get minutes and probably more likely in the Fulham game. Think this is going to be the better option to bench boost. Can triple in 37 with Haaland then.

          Well I got Jota before I knew he was injured . I was forced due to these silly price rises but I think I would have brought him in regardless. Just for the Fulham game if nothing else.

    Messed up my wild card the previous week, ahead of BB this week. Dicking around to see how I might upgrade one player, forgot to turn Akanji back to Stones and only have 1x Man U.

    Any of these worth doing?

    B. Martinelli > Antony

        Cheers. This was my thought too. Will want 3x NEW for GW36, although prefer to get Willock than a second NEW defender.

        Hard to free up midfield slots though with 2x Brighton, Salah, Rashford, Martinelli.
