      Hey, What do people think of the prospect of having a 5.5 defender on the bench?

      Thinking of getting Rose rather than KWP, as I reckon the only advantage of having a spurs defender is when they can play GW 1,3,5 , whereas if we're unlucky KWP might not even get to GW 3...

          Suggestions to what to get in empty spaces would be very appreciated! Got 10,5 m in the bank.

          Ederson - Mcgovern
          VVD - TAA/Robbo - Montoya - Walker-Pieters - XX
          KDB - B.Silva - Salah - Dendoncker - Xx
          Kane - King - Greenwood

          Was thinking
          A) Aké (5 m) + mcginn (5.5m)
          B) cathcart/balbuena (4,5m) + Barkley (6m)

          But not satisfied with either option

            Heaton 4.0
            Robbo TAA AWB Zinchink Cathcart
            Salah Sterling Perez
            Wilson Rashford

            Mcginn Dendonk Wickham

            Mcginn will play most weeks instead of Cathcart.

                  He can play LB too.

                  Pretty much now a lottery in City defence other than Laporte and Ederson.
