    Decision time... Maddison and Saka injured? I know Maddison seems ok. Advice please! Based on Maddison playing, I see my options as:

    1) Saka to Diaby?
    2) Saka to Bowen?
    3) Saka to Gordon?
    4) Roll, hope Saka plays and if he doesn't, Bell comes off my bench...

    My team:

    Ederson
    Estupinan - Trippier - Colwill
    Bruno Fernandes - Saka !! - Maddison !! - Rashford - Sterling
    Haaland - Alvarez

    Bench: Macey, Baldock, Mubama, Bell

      I take the "Would be mental" due to the fact Arsenal and Arteta seem to be intentionally being sneaky here and leaking a team after all of this possible misdirection would not look good on them.

    Sterling out for Bowen for a hit might seem silly to some but as a fan I just can’t see past how ordinary we have been plus our upcoming fixtures aren’t great. Someone convince me I’m doing the right thing

      I'm doing it I think.

      Bowen could easily outscore Sterling this week.

      Are you a Chelsea fan?

          are you keeping Sterling or trading him in?

          Fulham look half decent again but I've not been following them closely at all.

        why?

        because it's Fulham

        Chelsea are pretty poor most matches with half chances etc

        Maybe Palmer up front improves them?

          Because Sterling has been unlucky recently and could haul big time and I don't think Bowen will get 4 more points than Sterling this week.

            okay

            all possible but I think the opposite

            I'd rather have a player with good fortune

      I'd actually BB that.

      don't bench Maddison or Cash.

        Really? I’ve been in the fence but if I use it and someone doesn’t pass fit it will hurt bad.

          actually

          probably not because of Saka

          but play Maddison

          and Saliba.
