  I would like to implore Watkins owners to remain patient. He has two home games coming up against Fulham and Burnley. He got 24 goal involvements last season and isn't going to go the whole season without scoring. Emery is a very good manager and will find solutions. Green arrows are easier than ever to come by this season thanks to you heroes.

  Frustratung. however given I have Haaland and Pedro, at least there isn't another forward directly punishing me.
  I am seeing him as large green arrow potential if he returns in the next two.

      This is true. I only have Raya in my team and am looking to shift Virgil to someone cheap soon who gets DefCon.
      
      So far I have Senesi - Munoz - Lacroix - Gudmundsson - Virgil and need to rethink a couple of them.

        Like Senesi a lot. Would keep. And Gud useful for the bench. Had Munoz to start with - and wanted to stick with him as he was brilliant all last season - but saved money with the move to Guehi. Probably luxury move for you, with 2x CP currently.

  Thanks both. Salah tricksy. If Palmer, Saka and Isak were all fit and firing, there's a nice three way move, swapping them in for Salah, Kudus and Gwok. But they're not, so...

  It all depends on how much the defender costs and whether he gets regular clean sheets. If he costs 4m and gets 6 points each week, then it's job done.

Palmer + isak + king
Or

My take so far this season is that DC are majorly underpriced. I can see them getting nerfed heavily next season. Either more DC needed for DC points, less points gained (like 1 p instead of 2 for 10 DC) or DC magnets increased in price by a lot similar to what they did with wing backs for a few seasons.

Whatever they do, this season is going to be an outlier where people like Senesi and Anderson are just way too effective in terms of ppg because of DC.

  Burnley is playing away at least. MCI home has been good, Haaland looks good unlike Salah. Saka and Palmer have their issues. Bookies odds back the audience and prolly Haaland.

  For me the issue is that at 5.5, he's just at the price where you want him to actually start every time if you want him in your team. Committing a Burnley attacker to your team takes some balls and understandably most people think that he's unlikely to sustain his PPG. If he falls off you've wasted money on someone that's hard to remove from your team at his price point.

  Smooth:
  Goals from Anthony, Ekitike and vice-captain Haaland.
  Small green arrow, up from 1.9m to 1.7m.
  
  Rough:
  The only others to score more than 2 were Semenyo (5) and Virgil (4).
  Captain failure with Jaoa Pedro because of Sanchez's red card.
  Left Senesi (9) and Dubravka (40 on the bench.

  Smooth(er)...
  
  Back in decent contention in mini leagues with a 351k Gw rank, even tho I didn't BB an extra 14 points.
  
  Still not sure I'll make it to the big 'prizes' in Gw38. Hopefully some local ones!

  Death by a thousand cuts
  
  - Had Mateta (6pts) captain all week, then changed to Pedro (2pts) last minute. The other choice was Semenyo (5pts)
  - Reijnders (9pts) on bench. Could have played him instead of Cucu (0pts), Munoz (2pts), Porro (1pt), Paqueta (1 pt) or Xavi (1pt)
  - Played Xavi over Reijnders, but Xavi was benched. Could have got a couple of goals when he came on, but ended up with the 1pt
  - Played Dubravka (4) over Petrovic (6), making the switch with about 20 seconds to deadline
  - Still have 7.4 ITB with no Haaland (9pts) or Salah (5pts)
  - Chalobah was one of the first players I bought on my WC in GW4. I sold him to stick with Cucu. Since then, Cucu has scored 1pt, and Chalobah, 11pts
  - Went with Grealish over Ndiaye on the WC, too (3 vs 11 pts over two gameweeks)

  Smooth:
  WC'ed this GW . team looked so good on paper. Well at least Mateta and Senesi delviered
  
  Rough:
  Reinders to Palmer(C) ,that went well
  Felt like a smart differential to get Xavi over Kudus.. to add insult to injury he comes on to keep Guehi on bench.

  Rough: 15 points from 8 players on Sat, including 3 1 pointers. Leaving Reijnders 9pts on the bench
  
  Smooth: (c) Haaland, and Senesi and Semenyo saving my Sunday, leaving me on 47. Not great for a WC, but still better than my old team as I'd likely have left Dorgu on the bench anyway. And I like the look of my team more going forwards now and avoided several price drops and gained a couple of hikes, so team value better now too

      I meant what to do next 😉
      
      Obviously trying to do my best each year, and getting fairly good results (had one bad year).
      
      But my team for next GW is:
      
      Vicario
      Virgil - Lacroix - Senesi - Andersen
      Salah - Semenyo - Grealish
      Haaland (TC) - Pedro - Mateta
      
      (Dubravka, Le Fee, King, Tuanzebe)
      
      Got 2 FTs, but will most likely roll tbh. Would like to do: Mateta, Lacroix, Grealish & Tuanzebe -> Gyokeres, L. Miley, Burn & Richards and go 5-2-3 most GWs.
      But won't bother to bin Mateta/Grealish this GW to bring in Gyokeres (new), Burn (ARS) this GW. Might as well play 2x pool against Palace and 2x Palace against Pool.

What is the best option here?
A. Williams + Porro + Rogers + Sanchez —> Senesi + VDV/Richard + Semenyo + Raya (-4 hit)
B. Williams + Porro + Rogers —> Senesi + VDV/Richard + Semenyo

Sell Wood or Watkins for Haaland? Can’t decide which one is more useless. I’ll be wildcarding in 8 so only need them for 7 and maybe 8 but I do have the option to sell the other for Gyokeres in 7.
