    Still got FH, but team is pretty solid. If I use it, I might only have like 2 /3 changes at this rate. Anyone else still got it and don't really need it?

        I spunked by BB and got 7 points. So yea I would swap, my bench has been stacked recently, got very high team value. This week got Cucu, Dewsbury, and Tark on the bench for example. Obviously my bench is not ideal right now, but yea, lot more money then I had previously.
