    Before it all kicks off:
    0.1ITB, 2FT, all chips bar TC in hand.
    Thinking this might be the best opportunity to activate AM, but need to generate funds

    1. Hall > Castagne, AM Emery (a blanker for a starter in 29)
    2. Bruno > Rogers, AM Emery ( a starter for a blanker in 29 & benching headache this week, but Rogers doubles!)
    3. Forget the DGW, forget AM until later and stick with this.

    Alisson (Muric)
    Gabriel Kerkez Milenkovic (Hall Myko)
    Salah Palmer Mbeumo Kluivert (Bruno)
    Isak Gakpo Wood

    Have 10 already in place for 29, will ride out 34 as well, planning FH & BB in the late doubles.

    Neale is the only one doing any work, how can they be talking about line managers?

    Sack everyone but three people and the site would massively improve. Insanity has set in. Explains a lot

      Slim pickings. I'm thinking Watkins if fit, but this depends on plans and FTs. Wissa is the one I like, or carry him a week and decide after. Cunha would be a possibility if I delay the move.

        cunha is good call, but fixture dont look that good till 29.

        somehow i think trying to fit a forward that play 29 will just sacriface the 4 games prior and end up with less points even with the blank

          Why don't you just go Watkins until 28 and then move it to Cunha for 29? Does use up 2 transfers I grant you but Watkins has 5 fixtures before then to make it worth the while. Can't see many other options around the price to be honest.
