    Any real news besides twitter noise on whether Laporte has an injury?
    Own Laporte + Dias and looking at bringing in Cancelo for the spicy triple up in defence, which is less than 1% owned as a combo

    Please rate these moves?
    White/Sterling/Cout/Cucho to Cancelo/Son/Odergaard/Nketiah on BB this week + FH37

      Have not seen news on Laporte but yes seemed to have cramp after gruelling game but played last few minutes up top as centre forward which don’t think would have been asked to do if carrying an injury but hopefully get Pep update later. Looking at these moves Allan improvement to me

    D) Havertz + JRod to Mahrez + 4.5m fodder fwd (-4)

        Thanks, that was the original plan, even if Foden is rested for the first game, the Wolves game is nice. Wouldn't have budget for Pickford with that move unfortunately so will play useless Foster! I do like the Dubravka fixture in 38 anyway as I am FH37.

      I’ve been looking out all week (as a nervy Blue). There was a tweet from Alistair Macgowan (this morning) suggesting the FA will only rule on it once the police have investigated it. So that’s not likely to be for weeks yet.

      Everton fans don’t seem to be paying much attention to it - the general consensus is he threw it into an area with no fans. I think it looked worse on tv and then it was exacerbated by rabid Daily Mail readers/kopites and everyone else who loves to hate our favourite Brasilian.

      What sort of stuff are you doing for the last few weeks out of interest, given you’re not playing for much?
      Massive hits? Big differentials?

        Yeah. Massive hit this week. Hoping BB will cover it. That’s what my tinkering has been this evening.

      Nketiah has looked decent. I’d fancy a return against Leeds.

      I think Nketiah, purely based on everyone’s away form. Although who knows really. A lot to play for for both. Gordon essential for GW37 two home games though.

    Please help me guys.

    I am using Bb this week with 2ft and 0.5 in bank and using Free hit next week

    I am chasing one mini league by 10 points while leading another mini league by 10 points. So in both league, everyone has used bench Boost already and have one free hit left.

    Everyone in my both league have Alonso, James and Cancelo and I have Kilman white and Robbo. White and Kilman are injured who I need to replace but I don’t have enough fund to just replace them except holding/holgate/Fofana.

    If I transfer out Robbo then I can get alonso, laporte and 5.0 defender but Robbo is a differential for me but he might just play one game so does Alonso james and Laporte.

    Also I have maddison who none have but he might also play one game.

    Please help me on what to do?

      It’s slim pickings on the cheap defenders. Unsure on Fofana’s minutes. Holgate will presumably play every game unless he gets injured. Everton are a different proposition defensively with Mina in the team.

      I’d be really tempted to keep Robbo for the remaining games. Even if he gets a rest, he should still deliver good points as a differential.

      I obviously don’t know your team, but your defence sounds pretty terrible, so I’d consider downgrading a mid or fwd to fund two better defenders and take a -4.

      Consider Sessegnon? 4.3m, Reguilon likely out for rest of season, DGW this week and then BUR, NOR to finish the season

      If you’ve got BB this week and no one else has, then focus on good DGW players and not necessarily match theirs. Chelsea defs are a risk for both games for example. As is Robbo, so moving Robbo to a nailed DGW could work.
      I’d prob keep Maddy too and try for a differential like Jesus instead

      Even though only 3 weeks left, 10 points really is not much, so my advice would be to pick the players you want on merit rather than worry about your rivals. If 20 point different in the last week then yes that would be different, but not yet

    Sounds like White could be back for the second ARS DWG game.
    Holding a bit less desirable.

    Pick 1 ya like more please (4.2 max)
    A - Holding
    B - Holgate
