    Thoughts folks? I have £1.0 atm already:

    A) Adingra to Gordon
    B) Alvarez to Nketiah (free’s up to get 7.2 total and could get Mitoma, Mbuemo etc. next week or now for hit)
    C) Alvarez to Darwin.
    B) leave, only flag is Saka

    Team is currently.

    Johnstone
    Cash, Andersen, Gabriel
    Bowen, Son, Salah (C), Diaby
    Watkins, Alvarez, Darwin

    Bench: Areola, Odegaard, Tsimikas, Burn

    Got one free transfer and will obviously need to deal with Burn at some point but tempted to roll to cover potential injuries over the break. Also considering a risk of Odegaard or Tsimikas over Alvarez as just don't like the city fixture.

    Appreciate any thoughts or feedback!

    b) Saka to Mitoma + roll 1 (short term punt assuming Saka doesn't play)
    c) both
