    Any suggestions folks? Ive boiled it down to this:

    Play Antonio and Cancelo, with Livra and Digne on the bench. Or:

    A) Cancelo to Robertson -4
    B) Livra to Doherty -4
    C) Antonio to Lacazette -4

    I've already taken one hit this week.

    Ramsdale (Foster)
    Trent, Tierney, Cancelo* (Livra, Digne)
    Salah (c), Saka,, Kulu, Coutinho
    Kane, Dennis, Antonio

      It's nagging me that A and B might not give you a gain sufficient to make it worth it, although Doherty should play in 30. Also with C Arteta said 'I hope so!' when asked if Laca would be available.

      That being said, I would go C of those.

        Leaving towards do nothing. Antonio could finally score against Villa! Plus he also plays next week.

        I've just realised I have three Arsenal already lol.

        Too much coffee!

        So, I think I might just hold. Agreed?

          All those moves are a bit risky, depends on your attitude to risk. You shouldn't go too badly wrong by holding. My three Arsenal are Odegaard, Saka and Laca, don't know how I ended up with triple Arsenal attack!

            They've looked pretty good going forward recently so could pay off for you.

            I think I'll hold.

            Hopefully Cancelo will start.

            Any things on bench order? Normally I'd have livramento first sub but sounds like he might not start. Should i switch for Digne?

    Any other moves worth it? Still got wildcard, both free hits and bench boost, probably free hit 30

    De Gea
    TAA, Cancelo*, Rudiger, Livramento
    Salah (C), Son, Foden, Saka, Martinelli
    Jimenez

    Foster, Weghorst, Dennis, Ait Nori

    1.5 ITB 0 FT

    A) Foden + Jimenez > Gordan + Kane (-8)

      I’m on the same boat and debating whether to do A myself… but since it won’t cover the cost, I’m also gonna have to Bowen -> Kulu for total of -12… cant decide because having no city players left somehow feels wrong.

    Would you take -12?
    Cancelo, Bilva, King, Mee > Doherty, Martinelli, Kane, White
    This will let me save my FH to 33 and my WC to 31-35. BB36

      No.
      I'd consider two moves here.

    Should I take out VvD? Its all speculation as to whether he is out or not but I think its unlikely he has caught COVID yet again. Thoughts?

      been bugging me all today as I just sold cancelo for doherty earlier
      don't really want to bench him with a blank in 30 and buying robbo when VVD is out for a hit doesn't make total sense either

        Yep exactly this. Robbo was my replacement for him too but I really cannot make a decision!

      Not in his best form, but salah can always haul.

    - 4 taken, would you add KWP to Doherty for a -8?

      I’m in the same boat. Took a -8 last week which proved very beneficial - ended up with 108 net. May go again, why not?
