    Farke with 3 changes at the 59' mark. Even Pep hasn't sunk that low.

    Choosing Welbeck as a striker since the double hasn't really worked out very well.

    Counter to that is that no forwards are doing particularly well

    Stach coming off

    I've got VVD as first sub but
    Wilson in my team & strangely enough not come off the bench despite 3 subs on .

      Nice. You may well get those points off the bench

      1. keefy59
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        13 hours, 7 mins ago

        I think Wilson may be carrying an injury as you would expect him to be one of the 3 subs on.

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          13 hours, 6 mins ago

          Wilson's been pretty poor lately too
