    I can’t afford Mitro -> Toney without taking a hit… do you guys think it’s worth it? Other players are pretty template so wouldn’t know who to sell.

        Thanks guys I thought the same. Just seeing weekly one player hype, makes you question. I feel like Toney will score too but Mitro isn’t bad to own in long term!

    10:50 GMT
    Mitrovic -> Gnonto

    11:15 GMT
    Alisson -> Ward
    Almiron -> Fernandes

    The only worry is not having Mitrovic but it feels like having Fernandes will wheigh that up over the next weeks.
