        Eze will start V Bayern and probably play all 90 again.

        I suppose as it is Chelsea he may do again but with Odegaard, Madueke and Maetinelli back, not a certainty. There is so much guesswork with rotation. this weekend with PL again on Tuesday and CL this week. Even Haaland is a risk.

          I'm going to have a stronger bench on my FH just in case a few miss out.

          I had Saka in my pre-FH team and if I think Eze is a genuine option this week than it would be a strange to transfer out Saka on a FH. Without even factoring in game time I think for my set up and the way I play it's just not for me.

      Three of those four are into a 5 games in 14 days run, four of them PL.

      There won't be too many outfielders, certainly attacking ones starting all five and rotating in the middle game of the 5 would seem the most likely.

      The PL was won once in that formation on a freak season and would never have been if Kante was not playing. It restricts any attacking wingers of their main attributes.

      Mbeumo is good so will always get a few goals but in the same way he would if he was the attacking left or right in a 3. Saka and Salah would be worse in his formation.

    Amorim without a plan..

    WestHam, Wolves etc.. will all park the bus. Mbeumo needs space and better players around him. Yoro, De Ligt, Casemiro and even Shaw are great in destroying but completely useless in the build-up.
