      Against Southampton I agree. But Cunha plays on one of the worst teams in the league himself.

  If you're gonna do Gakpo to Cunha in 29 anyway, then you may as well sell Gakpo now. He's not as great an option now as he was prior to the Liverpool double double gameweek. Just back from a serious ankle injury himself, Jota is back to fitness, and there's a tough CL game against PSG to navigate coming up.
  
  Gakpo will see fewer minutes in the next two than Cunha

95(-8) before Salah captaincy provisional bonus points. Been a great 3 weeks with assistant manager giving me 140, 92 and potentially 101 points if it finishes 2-0 to lfc

Is it worth having Trent still? Lots of money tied up in him. Could have Konate instead.

  He's top scoring defender, even if he doesn't hold here. He is still expensive though so I would always consider him as a source of moving funds into the forward line
