    Who will score more point this week?

    A) Marmoush
    B) Isak
    C) Mateta

    Due to injury to Haaland I need to swap him out for one, also have Wood and Evaninilson. Don't know if its worth to -4 wood out for one more and bench Evanilson

    On WC, 3.5m ITB, keeping 1.5m for Howe, anywhere you'd spend the extra 2m here (Sarr to Eze?) or just save for something like Muphy to Rashford after 32?

    Raya
    Munoz Gvardiol Kerkez
    Salah Saka Kluivert Sarr
    Isak Mateta Marmoush

      Eze could be on pens if Mateta gets rested on plays another 60 minutes. Sarr is better away from home against high presses. It's close

    Have the 3 fixtures postponed out of GW34 been re-arranged yet? I've seen "highly likely" Man City double in GW33, and similar, but nothing definite.

    Planning AssMan Glasner GW31 but currently have 3x CP in WC

      I have the same issue, except running Eze over Sarr in my WC.

      Thinking Mateta is a 100% keep, and then Munoz as the other. Munoz is 100% rotation proof, and even without CS points he's always good for for a G/A.

      All depends on your other defenders of course, as with Gabriel, Gvard etc its quite easy to get 3 good defenders without Munoz. I was looking at the Gabriel/Gvard/Trippier trio for this reason potentially.

    Hitting AM31, what are your thoughtsabout GW33?
    I intend to start with Howe but would switch for DGW33, Arteta, Emery, Pep? WC depending on this call e.g, if going triple Arsenal or City. Rather have triple CP so probably no Glasner.

    I can't remember a season quite like this where the budget is completely meaningless because most of the premium assets are duds.

    Haaland - crocked, behind Chris Wood in FPL anyway
    Palmer - was crocked, terrible form.
    Saka - just back from being crocked, possible mins risk short-term.
    Son - finished. Barely scores more than Maddison on half his mins.
    De Bruyne - finished, mins risk.
    Foden - terrible season, mins risk.
    Watkins - not been a 90 min man this season, Villa european hangover.
    You can add in the crocked most expensive defender by miles to this list if you like.

    You could legitimately buy a more than half decent side with about 95m at the moment probably.
