    Current team for this week

    Henderson
    Gabriel Huijsen Munoz
    Salah Palmer* Bruno Kluivert
    Woods* Isak Evanilson

    Sub: Sa, TAA*, Burn, Enzo

    Already used my FT this week but thinking of -4 to move Woods to Mateta although doing a WC next week so very annoying.
    Should i roll as is or take the hit?

      yeah you can roll with that but I'd expect you to lose points compared to those who WC this week and then how likely are you going to get them back if you just WC to similar team next week

        mmmm fair point.

        I just think next week allows me to go for a say gordon, Trippier etc. who aren't particularly popular this week. This week threats would be mateta, isak and Munoz based on the template

        The argument for waiting is more info on fixtures, so maybe could plan a better BB etc

        If you could manage something like wood > Mateta I think I'd roll

            Robinson 80-90 mins v ars (A)
