    Taking a 4-point hit to do Salah, Wood & Johnson out for Haaland, Foden and Mbeumo providing they get through their match unscathed tomorrow.
    Team would then be:
    Sels, Dubravka
    Cucu, Milenkovic, Van dB, Gabriel, Senesi
    Semenyo, Foden, Mbeumo, Kudus, Arias
    Haaland, JP, Rich
    Looks good?
    I’m probably getting off remaining Nottingham Forrest as soon as reasonably possible to free up funds for Isak down the line.

      Not sure I would do it for -4. Sels and Milenkovic are transfers just waiting to happen. So maybe save the -4 for one of those players?

    Jadon Anthony from Burnley has been flying under the radar, besides the returns, his underlying numbers seem to be pretty decent as well.

    I tend not to pay attention to the spread of games, but I've just realised that I've no skin in any game after this, so hoping for continued returns from Bruno & Dorgu (1st sub).

        Nice to see Cucurella have a few bad games recently, easily the most dislikable player in the League

        Dubravka in for Sanchez, Sinesi in for Cucurella, Cole captain. Two out of three's not bad.

            If Chelsea gets another 3 red cards, maybe Sesko can score?
