    1. Guiu BrunoG to Ekitike Stach (other mid up to 5.3)
    2. Guiu Timber to Etikite def up to 4.8
    3. Roll

    I could do BrunoG to Semenyo for free but not sure if I want him outside Burnley game.

    Can't believe I lost points on FH. Considered Wilson, considered keeping Foden, was on Rogers all the way up until Eze got 100% rested against Brugge and went for him due to how bad Wolves are. Of course I pick the one trash can who gets 1p while all other options haul. Arteta is a pathetic manager and arsenal will not win the league as long as he's there with his awful approach to football.

    I know it's very defensive to save the FTs for a rainy day, but it might enable an aggressive play further down the line.
    I also know that Woltemaggot and Gordon are on borrowed time, and Thiago looks to be on a downward curve.

    Tempted to just roll this week, size up KDH news & do 2 or 3 next week, but the price changes are mad!
