      If you already own him then obviously just start him. I think he's a good buy regardless.

      The issue with Coufal is that he would have had to leave the WHU bubble to be with his wife and new child. Will need to isolate again....

    Good morning fellas,
    Don't normally do RMT's but I'm stuck this week with what to do with my FT, bearing in mind I'm using my wildcard for GW16. So it's essentially a free pick.

    McCarthy
    Zouma Cancelo KWP
    Salah Son Bruno Grealish Soucek
    Kane DCL

    Taylor Mitchell Davis. 0.3 ITB

    I genuinely can't see an improvement to be made to my team before the GW16 wildcard.
    Thoughts?

          It’s really about who you have instead of him. I have Vardy, Kane, Son, Bruno, Salah. I am happy with this group for the next few weeks. I have jumped on city several times this season hoping for a massive score but I am not sure they have the consistency to deserve such an investment right now. Especially when you can’t trust them with captaincy

    Can somebody save my boxing day - and give me back the time to spend with my family please!
    1 week punt:
    A) Chillwell -> Cancelo (-4)
    B) Chillwell -> Dias (-4)

    No defenders coming in unless Mitchell or Ben Johnson (WHU) miraculously play.
    So its a 0 pointer for Chillwell if not!

    Thank you all

      Dias maybe due a rest because of easy opposition but Walker is out?

      Yes but has considerably less attacking potential while he is playing centre back. And with the injuries they have both will play

        I believe that there is a good chance that Llorente plays cb and Ayling goes back to rb but if Llorente isn't fit you are right

      Yeah but while he's playing CB he's a not a good option.

    Will have to take a -4 hit at some point for a BB team

    Is it helpful to put the team here or too much info with 45 mins to go ? 🙂
