ROB MAYESโ€™ GAMEWEEK 6 TEAM REVEAL

I was always planning to get Erling Haaland (ยฃ14.3m) in this week, but with Florian Wirtzโ€™s (ยฃ8.2m) benching, Robert Sรกnchez (ยฃ5.0m) feeling risky, and maybe a little bit of a rage-move thrown inโ€ฆ Iโ€™ve decided to pull the trigger on the Wildcard.

Hereโ€™s the current draft:

      He looks more like a player you want against poor teams, not the lowest xG conceded in the league
