        The question was whether to use wildcard.

        My current team's "Team A" whilst WC team's "Team B".

        Considering Ings to Mitro (-4) tonight...

        If I make ANOTHER hit next GW, that would mean 3 consecutive hits (GWs 5-7), lol.

        Might just do Bernardo to Rich/Maddison. Who do you prefer out of these two?

        Cheers!

      Personally I wouldn't, but mainly because I don't have as much faith in Richarlison or Maddison as the rest of the community seem to have (great footballers, just not sure about their current fpl value with both their teams playing some poor football atm) Schürrle/Pereyra/Fraser even Milner are better options in my eyes, and would get you more money ITB. Also if you went with Mané instead of Salah, but of course you've already considered that 😉

      However, if the question is reduced to "to wildcard or not to wildcard" then it's more difficult, sense it seems possible/likely that you won't be able to field a full (starting) eleven this weekend

      good luck whatever you choose
